Chapter 247: Return to the East
Although the signing of the Treaty of Chang'an had no impact on the people of Daqi, it was a great event for the imperial court.
In particular, Imajo was keen to restore and improve the international reputation of the Great Qi, and when he heard of the treaty, the emperor cheered even more than the Ottoman envoys
Therefore, all the officials, including Li Xiang and Jia Hui, were rewarded
"Er Ming Wai Ya!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
In the main hall of the county mansion, after the great eunuch Dai Ming read the entire holy decree in a frustrated manner, the solemnity on his face instantly collapsed, and was replaced by a kind smile
"Hehe, general, what you did this time is really beautiful, after the saint knew about it, Long Yan was happy, and he rewarded everyone in the line at that time with ten taels of silver on the spot!" Dai Ming said to Jia Hui with a smile.
Although Deming is not Jia Hui's old department, when he met Jia Hui, the most valuable thing on Jia Hui's body was the rank of General Sima, so there was no problem for Deming to call General Jia Hui at all, even if Xu Le, the old department, was present, there was nothing else to say.
This guy Dai Ming has been promoted in the past two years, it is like a rocket, when he first met, he was just a former eunuch of the Zhengliupin Palace, if he was not Dai Quan's godson, this grade Jia Hui would not have looked at him.
However, on the eve of Jia Hui's Northern Expedition, this guy was transferred to Linzi, the eastern capital, to manage the military war bureau, and after another year, the left-behind eunuch in Linzi returned to his hometown, and Dai Ming took the opportunity to succeed him as the left-behind eunuch in the eastern capital.
The one who contributed the most must be his godfather Dai Quan.
But Dai Ming can stand out among Dai Quan's many righteous sons and won Dai Quan's favor, and his own wrist is definitely not weak.
No, just last month, this guy successfully overturned his two competitors who returned to Beijing, the left-behind eunuchs in Beiping and the left-behind eunuchs in Nanjing, and successfully returned to Ouchi to take charge of the capital governor, ranking among the twenty-four eunuchs with palm prints.
"Yes, yes, the holy reward is simply that. It's so sweet! Jia Hui said with some emotion.
Generally speaking, what the emperor rewards, you, as a courtier, should accept, and the emperor is a typical example of this kind of emperor.
Today, however, he will give the rewarded courtiers what they need most at the moment.
Take Li Xiang as an example, the reward he received was to give his eldest son the title of a baron!
Although the title of a baron is not worthy of Li Xiang, the head of the cabinet, it is actually just right!
According to the rule left by Taizong, since the death of the last founding civil servant with a knight, "those who have a knight are ranked in the military class", once a civil official has a title, he must be turned into a military attaché, even if he is the first assistant.
For Li Xiang, the lack of success in the family is the most troublesome thing for him. Well, now the emperor directly rewarded his eldest son with a knighthood. This has not harmed the interests of the present, but also given the Li family at least five generations of wealth!
Jia Hui felt that now the emperor just asked him to blow up the bunker with the explosive bag, and Li Xiang would not have any objections
"So. When will my new gear and Suzaku Iron Rider be delivered? Jia Hui asked excitedly.
"Haha, don't worry, general, the Luoyang Military Bureau is being built now, maybe when the two saints return to the divine capital, the new equipment will be built!" Deming hurriedly explained.
Money is a number for Jia Hui, unless the gold is placed in front of him, he will have the slightest bit of excitement with tens of millions of taels of silver in his hands.
Title? The current Dunhuang County Duke Jia Hui is very comfortable, and the position of the Duke of the Kingdom earned with real swords and guns is what Jia Hui desires, fortunate to enter? Jia Hui was dismissive.
Therefore, rebuilding a batch of equipment for him and his descendant army, the Vermilion Bird Iron Horse, from head to toe, from the horse's head to the horse's tail, is the thing that can make Jia Hui happy and play a rewarding role.
While the two were talking and laughing, they sat down on the chair and chatted
"Oh, this day is really fast, a few months have passed in a blink of an eye, and the big guys have run from Jiubian to Qiongzhou." Deming sighed with emotion.
"Yes, it's finally over, and after more than half a year of busy work, the brothers can finally go home and rest." Jia Hui should be kind.
"After such a show, those people who survived should be honest, right?" Reaching out to take the bowl handed by the maid, Deming lifted the lid and sniffed the tea, and said to Jia Hui with a smile.
"Isn't it true that the lesson of more than 60,000 lives is honest? I don't understand, the Great Qi expedition to the desert, the remnants of the Northern Expedition, and the world. And at that time, a certain family had just exterminated the White Lotus Sect, and it was with the power of great victory that they returned to the dynasty in victory, why were those Jianghu people so bold that they even dared to attack the formed army? Jia Hui's face was puzzled.
Although the people involved at that time, including their sects, had already gone down to the underworld in order, Jia Hui still didn't understand why they were so bold.
It was not even just to shock the army, because the large army when the squad returned to the dynasty was still guarding hundreds of millions of taels of silver ready to be sent to the treasury and the inner treasury of the two saints, so that group of Jianghu people also had the two major crimes of "attempting to rob the treasury" and "trying to rob money with the two saints".
Especially the big crime of trying to rob the two saints, this is the biggest reason for stepping on the rivers and lakes!
Moreover, tens of thousands of guerrillas scattered and brave rabble, how could they dare to hedge against the cavalry units of the most elite of the 3,000 Great Qi and even hundreds of armored cavalry?
If there were more people fighting wars, then Daqi would have unified the world a long time ago!
"Hey, although the general said that he was a meritorious feat obtained by fighting on the battlefield, after all, he grew up in the nest of wealth, what kind of military books do you want to read, Ning Rong's second mansion has them, even if you don't have them, then Lao Rongguo can also hand over the sign to the palace at any time to find it, where do you know the preciousness of the military book?" Dai Ming smiled, and gave Jia Hui a look without scruples.
Hearing this, Jia Hui was not annoyed, but took a body test at Deming, expressing his willingness to hear the details
I can't figure it out to kill you!
"This ordinary general can be heirloom with a military book alone, but this is not necessarily a good military book, and it may not be suitable for himself!
is obviously the material for the situation of learning soldiers, but there is only one book in his hand that teaches soldiers yin and yang. If you learn it, you will waste your talent, and you may not learn anything famous, but if you don't learn, you will be a big soldier for a lifetime? To learn or not to learn?
Jiangmen is like this, not to mention a group of people from the rivers and lakes, who are from the grass people, and can recognize all the commonly used words, which is a rare talent. It is a fight between two sects, and it is also solved by martial arts, and if two or three people can cooperate, it will be a top-level battle formation. As for the method of fighting a war? I would have joined the army a long time ago! ”
"Whatever," Jia Hui replied to Deming with a lack of interest.
Anyway, the people have already been killed, and there is no need to worry about these things anymore.
"But speaking of these Jianghu people, does the general still remember that Eunuch Zhang from Dongchang?" Dai Ming leaned towards Jia Hui with interest.
"It's a deep memory, and I am disgusted! When I saw him, the flesh on his head was already rotting and maggots, but it disgusted me and Dai Gong once. What, this guy has found a problem? Jia Hui felt a little disgusted when she thought back to that picture.
Although he is accustomed to seeing life and death, he is also a murderous general, but the battlefields he participated in handled very well, and the corpses were buried early, and he had never seen a corpse with such a high degree of decay.
"Hehe, I won't tell you, since that incident, my godfather has been privately investigating whether there is any secret in this matter, but nothing has been found for several months, and my godfather is ready to close the case, guess what?" Deming looked at Jia Hui expectantly.
"Look at what you said, since you have a turning point, of course you have found out something, less nonsense, and talk about the point!" Jia Hui glanced at Deming, picked up the tea bowl and poured it into his mouth.
"Good, good, long story short, long story short. That's the case, with the friendship between you and my godfather, General, you must know the little pickled things about the people who are left behind our sentences."
"Focus!" Jia Hui's gaze gradually became dangerous.
"Private house! To be precise, it's the cook lady of the eunuch's private house! Seeing that Jia Hui seemed to be going crazy, Dai Ming hurriedly skipped through all the miscellaneous things and refined the key points.
It stands to reason that he, who has already mixed into the great eunuch, or the righteous son of the ancestor of the entire Great Qi eunuch world, should not be afraid of Jia Hui, but who let the two saints take Jia Hui as their own descendant?
And compared to himself, his godfather prefers Jia Hui, who grew up, and Jia Hui also has inexplicable respect for his godfather
This makes sense!
Can't be provoked, can't be provoked.
"Cook? Whose people? What was Deming thinking, Jia Hui didn't care at all, and continued to ask.
Suspicion of killing Wang Shizi!
At that time, his outspokenness and righteousness directly saved him Jia Hui's life.
What's wrong with Dai Quan being a eunuch? Jia Hui respects him like a parent!
This is a true feeling in exchange for sincerity, and a person like Deming, who is attached to the past because of his power, will not understand!
"King Xiaoshen!"
"Who?" Jia Hui was confused.
"Prince Xiaoshen, the youngest son of the great grandfather, the younger brother of the great grandfather!"
"Ahh Jia Hui remembered.
Although almost all of the Chen royal family lived in the capital, and they were all served by the remnants of the six rates of the prince, the Chen family was originally a big family, and it had been bred for four generations, so naturally some people escaped the catastrophe, and this King Xiaoshen was one of them.
There is no other reason, just because he is left behind in the eastern capital. When he first moved the capital, he passed by Linzi, and Jia Hui also toasted him!
Daqi is called the Five Capitals, but in fact only two places are imperial capitals.
Chang'an, Beiping and Jinling, the three cities of the good to say are called the capital, in fact, the level is in the line, and the royal palace and small gardens in all parts of the country there is no essential difference, the only difference is that these three cities have the old palace so it is directly used as the palace, at most it is called "big line in", can not be more.
The capital is Luoyang, and Linzi, as the land of Longxing, is the base camp of the uprising for six years, and it is the hometown of Taizu, so it naturally became the eastern capital.
Chang'an, Beiping and Jinling are only in the big line, so only Xungui needs to guard it, but Linzi is different, Linzi is the "capital" of the Eight Classics, so Taizu set the rules and sent the prince or the prince of the county to guard it personally.
King Xiaoshen is this lucky one.
"Then what does this cook have to do with him?" Jia Hui became interested and hurriedly asked.
"Actually, this is a coincidence, that is, Eunuch Zhang's cook and the mother of a concubine accepted by King Xiaoshen a few years ago are sisters, and my godfather has also verified it, and it is indeed a coincidence.
That eunuch Zhang is from Linzi, and the cook was also recruited from there. It may be that this concubine told King Xiaoshen about this matter as a joke, which made King Xiaoshen think about it, so he hooked up with Eunuch Zhang through this cook.
At first, Eunuch Zhang didn't dare to contact him, but for several years, King Xiaoshen only used him to find out about the emperor's recent situation and recent preferences, so as to collect some good things to honor the emperor, and the eunuch Zhang slowly got used to it, and their relationship gradually improved. ”
"Is there a problem with King Xiaoshen?" Jia Hui asked suddenly.
"I haven't found any problems at the moment." Deming said cautiously.
"According to the style and personality of King Xiaoshen on weekdays, he probably became greedy when he heard that hundreds of millions of taels of silver were shipped to Luoyang, including tens of millions of taels of silver from yours.
He didn't dare to touch the silver of the court and the two emperors, but you, a junior, may not be. So he plucked Eunuch Zhang, and wanted his Dongchang Fanzi to take advantage of the Jianghu people attacking you, to lend a helping hand and then blackmail the favor, wanting to deduct some money from you."
After Jia Hui heard this, he was speechless for a while.
went around in such a big circle, just to deduct two money from his own hands in the way of "coercion and retribution"?
Hiss.
"This King of Filial Piety is really a brain circuit." Jia Hui racked his brains and couldn't find a word that could accurately describe him.
Also deduct some money to spend.
Flower!
I'm afraid it's not that my brain is really confused!
"Does the Emperor know about this?" Jia Hui didn't ask the emperor if he knew, after all, the rank of the filial piety prince is really too high, and he is the only surviving Taizu parent, even if the emperor knows it, he will be numb.
"Of course the old man knows about it, but you also know the reason, it's really not good to punish!" Deming let out a long sigh and looked at Jia Hui while smiling bitterly.
"That's it, King Xiaoshen is in his seventies and almost eighty, and it's not even a few years, so let him pass this matter."
The two looked at each other again without saying a word
。。。。。。
In September and October of the seventh year of the Heavenly Sage, there was a sense of parting everywhere.
The first to leave was naturally the Persian mission, which was full of sad people, and they only left the deputy envoy and about 20 attachés to stay in the small courtyard of Honglu Temple in Luoyang, and left singing a vast and desolate ballad.
The Ottoman mission followed, and was also leaving two days after the Persian mission left. However, the Ottomans did not leave a mission like Persia, for no other reason, it was too far away and completely unnecessary, especially after the signing of the "Treaty of Chang'an", the Persians must have hated them Ottomans, and I am afraid that even the merchants would not dare to come to Daqi through Persia to do business.
The imperial court is also leaving Chang'an.
There is no way, the materials in Chang'an in winter are too scarce, even if you desperately suck blood from elsewhere, there will still be survival pressure, and if you continue to suck like this in winter, it will not be whether Kansai will rebel, but whether the whole country will rebel!
On October 18, the seventh year of his birth, Emperor Qi returned to the east.
Just like when they came, the honor guard that stretched for dozens of kilometers beat gongs and drums and played suona, and marched in the direction of Luoyang lively
In the rear, in a four-seater carriage of the Taiwei honor guard, Jia Hui's family of five sat around the small stove in the center of the carriage and ate hot pot
Yes, five mouthfuls.
Jia Hui and Li Kun and his wife and Xiao Yanei's family of three, Aunt Rakshasa Yelena, and Wu Chan, the secretary of the teaching workshop, are a family of five.
In the end, the Wu family entered the door of the Dunhuang County Mansion as they wished.
"Master, this is the bride entering the door again, and she is returning to Luoyang, why are you still crying? Don't you dislike Sister Chan for not being good-looking enough? Seeing Jia Hui absentmindedly pulling the slices of meat in the bowl, the sluggish mood disturbed the emotions of the people at the table, of course Li Kun, as the eldest woman, had to take care of it, so it was a yin and yang weirdness.
"Ah, it's nothing, it's just some bad business" Jia Hui was awakened by Li Kun's words, shook his head and forgot about the information sent from North Korea and Liaodong, picked up the bowl and showed off all the meat slices in the bowl into his mouth in three or two bites.
The ministers and pro-Qi factions of North Korea were finally tired of being stirred up by Jiang Huan and prepared to launch a coup d'état to get rid of the Joseon prince
It's just that this matter was done too roughly, and when the prince of Joseon found out, he took the lead in his heart, caught them off guard, and almost wiped out the whole army!
If it weren't for Jiang Huan with the delegation and 3,000 elites to break through to Pyongyang with them, the new king of Joseon would have no team!
Thinking of this, Jia Hui put down the dishes and chopsticks, bent over and stood up, walked to the window in the confusion of his wives and concubines, lifted the cloth curtain, and beckoned Hu Jiu to his side.
"Go and talk to Elder Li Ge, the prince of Joseon. No, the North Korean traitor didn't survive Jiang Huan, he did it! You can send the Korean lord from the former envoys to Pyongyang. ”
After hearing Hu Jiu's promise and walking away, Jia Hui was still worried
Jia Zhu was slashed!
Now I have a high fever that doesn't go away, and I don't know if I can survive it!
Alas.
Although Jia Hui has a very poor relationship with the second room, Jia Zhu is an exception, they are brothers who grew up together!
"Alas, grandfather, bless Brother Zhu to come back safely!" Jia Hui faced the big sun, folded his hands and read the words
Jia Hui, who had never been interested in gods and Buddhas, finally compromised and began to beg for his grandfather
"Master, the meat is cooked!"
After finishing the last sentence, Jia Hui let out a sigh of relief, readjusted his state, and returned to the heartless appearance he had on weekdays.
"It's coming!"
The curtains that had been hastily rolled up were lowered, and Jia Hui returned to his seat with anticipation on his face, and stretched out his chopsticks to take out a lot of meat
End of this volume!
The next volume is a few years away.
