Chapter 205: The mediocrity is gone again

After the major strategic policy was decided, these few people in the Xuanzheng Hall were busy.

Except, of course, Heshen.

That is, after everyone discussed the other party's strategy, Lu Bing, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, came, and he whispered a few words in Zhao Changqing's ear, and then retreated.

During this period, the ministers were keenly aware that His Majesty's expression seemed to have changed, and it was a little uncertain, as if it was a prelude to a storm.

Everyone felt a little inexplicable, so dignified, why did His Majesty's expression change so quickly?

Could it be that something is going on?

As soon as Zhuge Liang wanted to step forward to ask, he heard Zhao Changqing say: "If you Aiqing is fine, you can step back and stay with Shen." ”

The voice of this voice made the hearts of all the ministers tremble.

Especially He Shen, he felt that he was like a tiger in his heart.

Could it be a coincidence that the deputy commander of Jinyiwei personally reported the news to His Majesty, and in the end left himself alone?

I can't really do anything and forget it, right?

The construction of the new capital has been going smoothly, why does Your Majesty have such an expression?

Why leave yourself alone?

Although the ministers also had doubts in their hearts, they all retreated.

Only He Shen was still in the main hall, and after a series of cranky thoughts, he was already in a cold sweat all over his body.

Zhao Changqing suddenly frowned, looked at He Shen, and said, "You really didn't embezzle the money to build the new capital?"

He Shen immediately knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister is really wronged! How can Weichen dare to embezzle the silver used to build the imperial city? This is a great crime to destroy the Nine Clans! Weichen really doesn't dare!"

However, who knows, Zhao Changqing was completely enraged by this sentence.

He never thought that Heshen's guy had changed his sex, and there was really no corruption for one or two pieces of silver?

Does this fit in with his character?

Or is it that his corrupt methods are very clever, and even the eyes of the two Davids, Jinyiwei and Changwei, are hidden?

Zhao Changqing didn't believe in this evil, and once forced He Shen to ask: "I will give you one last chance, have you been corrupt or not!" If you tell the truth at this time, I will ensure that you are safe and will never kill you!"

He Shen was stunned by this sentence, so according to the current situation, is he corrupt?

Definitely not!

This is something that you can't even admit to death.

Why admit something you haven't done before?

So He Shen immediately said: "Your Majesty, Chen Weichen is really not corrupt!"

He said this sentence almost through gritted teeth.

After hearing the sound, Zhao Changqing took a deep breath, wanting to suppress the sudden irritability in his body, pointing at He Shen and swallowing and whining, he couldn't speak for a long time.

He Shen noticed the emperor's behavior at this time, and he was already scared and almost peed his pants.

He really didn't know what to do.

Look at what Your Majesty means, do you have to admit to corruption?

But I didn't have corruption, why should I admit it!

Wrong!

This must be His Majesty's test of me, and his purpose is to see if I can withstand the blow.

It's a big responsibility for yourself!

So, he hit the muzzle of the gun again, and repeatedly told the emperor that he was not corrupt.

Finally, in desperation, Zhao Changqing let He Shen go.

Out of the Xuanzheng Palace, he felt that the gloomy weather outside the hall was exceptionally sunny and bright.

After today, I should be peaceful for quite a while, right?

In the Xuanzheng Palace.

After He Shen left, Zhao Changqing collapsed on the chair.

He was instantly desperate.

I trust this Heshen so much!

ruined their own big things, so wouldn't the mediocrity be unprofitable?

What is the situation with this Heshen, and why is he not corrupt?

Zhao Changqing, who was puzzled, decided to send someone to follow He Shen for a while.

At the same time, I also speculated in my heart, is this Heshen because he has not yet reached his age, so he has not yet developed the attribute of corruption?

It must be so!

But there is one thing that Zhao Changqing feels relieved about.

Because of the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there was no good thing.

After Jinyiwei's investigation, Zhao Changqing learned that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for the first few people who followed him, more or less had experience of corruption, and he believed that by making good use of these ministers, he would already gain a lot of mediocrity.

Especially the words said in the Chengde Hall today, 'corruption is okay', just these four words will definitely make more and more corrupt officials in the world.

As long as it is because of his own words that there are more corrupt officials, and the corrupt officials are more corrupt, then he will definitely get mediocre value, which is basically a sure thing.

A few days later, the envoys of the various festivals and all the feudal officials rushed to the new capital Luoyang to worship the saints.

The emperor moved the capital, and in order to show the center, they must have come to Luoyang for a visit.

Zhao Changqing warmly entertained them, and feasted the ministers in the Taiji Palace, and celebrated his 'housewarming' by the way.

After the banquet, Zhao Changqing met with Ma Hong alone.

After the end of the rebellion, Ma Hong's leg injury not only did not improve, but became more serious, according to Zhu Yanxiu, his legs were caused by broken tendons, there is no way to recover, if you do not pay a little attention, the injury will accelerate the deterioration.

At first, Mahon was very careful, but he didn't know why, and the leg injury continued to deteriorate at an accelerated rate.

Zhao Changqing summoned him into the Xuanzheng Hall and asked Zhu Yanxiu to personally diagnose him again.

After the pulse exploration was over, Zhu Yanxiu said: "Your Majesty, General Ma's legs have been transformed from the injuries of the meridians to qi and blood, and at present, I am afraid that there is no good way to relieve the pain in his legs, so that it can spread and even restore some vitality." ”

He understood that in this life, Ma Hong's legs were already useless.

Zhao Changqing also sighed helplessly.

If Ma Hong's realm is a land immortal, then he can use some Taoist mystical techniques to restore him.

But now, it's too late.

It is impossible for ordinary people to break through to the realm of land immortals during the period of Ma Hong's life and death.

Even if Zhao Changqing used his luck to forcibly raise Ma Hong's realm, at this critical juncture, it was already useless.

After Ma Hong heard the diagnosis of the poison doctor Zhu Yanxiu, he already seemed very open-minded, and he knew that there was something wrong with him.

So in this matter, he also had to be open-minded.

Zhao Changqing patted him on the shoulder and said: "It doesn't matter, people live for a lifetime, you have to pay attention to living for yourself, and in the next life, you will have all the food and clothing, so you can spend the rest of your life well." ”

In fact, Ma Hongzhi is not here, his only wish now is to sit on horseback and fight the enemy once.

But he knew in his heart that he would never get that wish.

Because an army is an army, and in the army, there will never be a person with a disability in both legs going to the battlefield.

He said to Emperor Dawei: "Your Majesty, the legs of the last general have bothered you, in fact, the minister is doing well in Lingnan, and the family of three is happy, so he doesn't want to think about anything." ”

Zhao Changqing asked him, "Lingnan affairs, how is it now?"

Ma Hong opened his mouth and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Lingnan is almost too peaceful, the original ordinary people who were bewitched by traitors have clearly understood the harm of witch Gu, and they have already turned their hearts to the imperial court, and the last general is still actively supervising the school in the Lingnan area, and now many people who couldn't afford to read have begun to accept the teachings of the saints." ”

Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "This is your political achievement, I am very pleased, however, these things should not be rushed, they all need to be cyclically and gradually, I plan to let you go back to Luoyang to recuperate, don't go back to Lingnan, Lingnan's affairs, I will let others do it." ”

He said this for a reason.

He heard that Ma Hong actually did Lingnan's errand well, so he had to do it.

And according to Jin Yiwei's investigation, Ma Hong is not corrupt at all.

Leaving him to stay in Lingnan can he have nothing but disturb his plan to earn mediocre points?

Just let him come back!

Anyway, he also has a leg disease, and it's not good to toss like this all the time.

But Ma Hong was unwilling, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed, while the last general can still do some things, let the last general do it, otherwise it is not the last general's original intention to die of idleness!"

In front of the emperor, he is still willing to call himself the last general.

It can be seen that he is persistent in the battlefield.

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "This is easy to do, from today onwards, you will be responsible for teaching the thinking of recruits, you are a person who has been a soldier, this should be okay for you, right?"

Ma Hong was stunned when he heard this, and instantly burst into tears.

Suddenly, he had the feeling that he was dying for his confidant.

Since you are destined to not be able to return to the battlefield, it is good to go to the barracks to do some chores!

Regarding the position of the festival envoy, to be honest, I have done enough.

How can a general who went into battle to kill the enemy in the past 'abandon his pen and follow his pen'?

This is not the life you want!

So, he received the order of His Majesty the Emperor.

With the opportunity to return to the barracks, he smiled like a child.

Although when he was serving as a festival envoy, he would occasionally go to the local barracks to have a look and inspect,

Zhao Changqing looked at Ma Hong, who looked like a child, and suddenly felt a little crying and laughing.

People like him are the loveliest people in the world.
