Soon, this good news was placed on Zhao Yu's desk.

"Huang Jingming, the general manager of the march of Linjiang Mansion, and Fang Chao, the deputy governor, bowed to His Majesty again: Your Majesty is powerful in the world, and the ministers and other troops are deployed along the Canglong River to confront Jin Kou. The thief Lu Linyuan sent troops to cross the river to test, fortunately His Majesty blessed, the three armies were killed, and they were defeated in a battle, our army killed 500 enemies, captured 1,000, and burned dozens of Jinkou ships. After this battle, Jin Kou didn't dare to underestimate my Da Chu......"

Listening to Gao Lishi read out the words on the sheet in a subdued tone, Zhao Yu was not surprised at all.

Huang Jingming is also an old man in the army, and he has the right place and people in hand, even against Lu Linyuan, who is known as the "No. 1 general in the world", with the natural danger of Canglongjiang, as long as he fights steadily, even if he can't win, he won't lose too quickly and too miserably.

At this time, this letter of success can give a shot in the arm to the Great Chu court.

"Lux, let people go to the Hanlin Academy to spread the word, quickly draft the decree, and reward the meritorious soldiers one by one!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand and said heavily.

For the army, the reward should be fast!

When the good news came from the front, as long as the military merits were confirmed, the military department and the household department should quickly draw up the reward amount and issue it immediately, and there must be no delay.

In Zhao Yu's view, there are some places that can save money, such as the emperor's construction of palaces and mausoleums, but some can never be saved, and even a penny cannot be deducted, such as military salaries and rewards.

In addition to distant ideals, there is also fame and fortune in front of people.

Those who are soldiers rely on their salaries to feed their families. If you deduct other people's salaries, isn't it equivalent to not giving the other party a way out?

If people don't rebel, that's weird.

The same goes for bounties.

A small soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and if he wants to be motivated, he can only make meritorious contributions.

Working desperately on the battlefield is for fame and fortune, in order to go further,

Concealing the military merits of the bottom and not rewarding the bottom is tantamount to blocking the upward channel of ordinary soldiers.

For the sake of these three walnuts and two dates, what is the result, Zhao Yu remembers it clearly in the history books he read in his previous life.

That is the black history that some people, such as the god of the Gaoliang River, can't erase in their lifetime.

"Your Majesty, in addition to this report, King Taihe also has another letter to ask for merit."

Gao Lishi raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yu's face and said softly.

"Please? Didn't I decide to reward all the generals in the army? ”

Zhao Yu's eyes obviously showed doubts, but he didn't think too much about it and waved his hand.

"Keep reading, I'll listen."

Colliers glanced at the words on the note, swallowed quietly, hesitated for a moment, and read out the content word by word.

Huang Jingming, the general manager of the march of Linjiang Prefecture, bowed his head again and bowed to His Majesty: This battle can be won, in addition to the lives of the three armies, the logistics of each prefecture and county are also very important. Please Your Majesty, Dong Huairen, a member of the Household Department, is the prefect of Linjiang Prefecture, Yang Tiande, Counselor of the Hanlin Academy, is the prefect of Yongquan Mansion, and Gao Zhan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Soldiers, is Yin ...... of Ningyuan Mansion."

"Enough!"

Without waiting for Gao Lishi to finish reading, Zhao Yu snorted coldly.

Looking at Zhao Yu Tieqing's face, Gao Lishi shrunk his neck, and he didn't dare to come out, so he quietly moved aside.

"Okay, I still wonder why it's just a small victory, and this King Taihe is going to ask for a reward. The original intention was here! ”

See you in the picture, this is!

The three people mentioned in Huang Jingming's recital, no need to guess, are all his Huang Jingming's henchmen, and the Kyoto Prefecture, where Shenjing is located, is just sandwiched between Linjiang, Yongquan and Ningyuan, as well as the four prefectures of Taihe.

Zhao Yu laughed angrily and snorted coldly.

"Why didn't this old man replace the prefect of Taihe Mansion with his own?"

"Your Majesty, in the recital of King Taihe, there is really a candidate for the prefect of Taihe Mansion, but before the slave maid has time to read it, Your Majesty, you will ......"

Gao Lishi, who moved to the corner, said weakly.

"Okay, just surrounded on all sides, right?"

Zhao Yu, who was out of anger, slapped the fold that had just been reviewed in his hand.

"Good, good! Tomorrow's court meeting, let a group of ministers discuss this old horseman's recital, I want to see this time, among these people, who is loyal and who is traitor! ”

The prefects and soldiers and horses who have taken office in these four prefectures are the result of the struggle and compromise with Huang Jingming during the six years that the Empress Dowager Xuande has been listening to the government, and they are all neutral and royalists.

It can be said that these four prefectures, plus Kyoto Prefecture, are Zhao Yu's life and the capital to turn over in the future, which is his bottom line, and it is absolutely impossible to replace them with Huang Jingming's people.

And this incident also sounded the alarm in Zhao Yu's heart.

It's just that the scene at the court meeting on the second day made Zhao Yu's heart cold.

Except for a small number of officials who explicitly expressed their opposition, most officials remained silent, and Huang Jingming's henchmen, led by Huang Wenbo, urged Zhao Yu to agree to the recital.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Yu became more and more irritable in his heart, and directly asked Gao Lishi to order a retreat.

However, Zhao Yu had just returned to the Zihuan Palace, and before he had finished drinking a cup of tea, an attendant came to report that Huang Wenbo, the Marquis of De'an, wanted to see him.

"Let him in, I want to hear today, what ivory can he Huang Wenbo spit out of his mouth."

Zhao Yu, who was uncertain, said coldly.

Sure enough, Huang Wenbo came here to persuade Zhao Yu to agree to his brother's unreasonable request.

Hearing the end, Zhao Yu's face was even colder, and he said lightly:

"If De'anhou said this, then please go home. How to appoint and dismiss hundreds of officials in the world, I know in my heart, and it is not De'anhou's turn to teach me. ”

Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Huang Wenbo also became angry in his heart.

If Your Majesty doesn't even eat a toast, then you won't give Your Majesty face.

I saw Huang Wenbo bow down and say:

"It is a great achievement for the king of Taihe to supervise the Chinese and foreign military and lead the troops north to fight against the Jin Kou. If King Taihe really wants to decide on the appointment and dismissal of officials in the world, I am afraid that even His Majesty cannot easily disobey it. Now, King Taihe is just recommending a few people as state officials, why does His Majesty oppose it so fiercely? ”

Zhao Yu was furious in his heart, and snorted coldly:

"If King Taihe doesn't want to be the minister of Great Chu, then replace me! If there is still a trace of courtiers in his heart, there is no reason for me to choose the world's hundred officials! ”

"Your Majesty said so, and Weichen had nothing to say. Wechen retired. ”

After that, without waiting for Zhao Yu to speak, Huang Wenbo turned around and walked out of the Zihuan Palace.

"This fang, rude to the extreme!"

After Huang Wenbo left, Zhao Yu said these six words coldly.

"Your Majesty, this person should be killed!"

Gao Lishi turned out of the shadows, looking at Huang Wenbo's disappearing back, his eyes gloomy like a poisonous snake.

The Lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the Lord is humiliated by the death of the ministers.

As Zhao Yu's diehard loyalist, Fang Cai's attitude towards Huang Wenbo has made him angry.

"I'll have a chance for you to make a move in the future. Remember that day, give me a good picture of this guy, and don't let him die too easily! ”

Zhao Yu gritted his teeth and said.

The monarch has fallen to this point, this revenge is not avenged, what face does he have to control the ministers, and he is in charge!
