Chapter 1732: Coercion and inducement, wish fulfilled
"My lords, have you considered it? The sacrifice to the sea has been completed. I must report to the Holy Lord in time. This report needs to be urgently done by eight hundred miles at the end of today's hour. Reporting to Your Majesty, time waits for no one. If you have any opinions, please come back. I and Mei Lin need a quiet environment to revise the memorial to the sea."
Zhao Wenhua twitched his lips slightly when he saw everyone was silent, and urged in an impatient voice. Tao, once again put pressure on everyone.
This is the threat of Chi Guoguo.
If you continue not to sign, then get lost. I need to revise the Memorial to the Sea. As for how to revise it, it is self-evident.
After Zhao Wenhua finished speaking, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of He Qing and Shen Xiyi. Their psychological war had reached the final moment.
"Okay, silence is golden. I accept your silence." Zhao Wenhua smiled slightly, then lowered his face and said to everyone, "You don't need to make things difficult for me, sir. Sir, please come back.”
“Huwei, see you off.”
Then, Zhao Wenhua shouted unceremoniously outside the check-in room, asking for someone to see you off.
On normal occasions, tea is served to see guests off. It is very inappropriate to call Tiger Guard to see guests off so bluntly.
"Ahem, Mr. Zhao, please be patient. I am old and my brain is slow to respond. Moreover, the memorial submitted to the Holy Emperor cannot be ignored. I have been checking several data in the memorial. Well, now that I have finished the calculation, there is indeed no problem. "
When He Qing saw Zhao Wenhua seeing off the guests rudely, he suddenly became anxious, and without caring about his face, he coughed and said slowly.
"Sir." At this time, the tiger guard outside the tent had already entered the tent in response, cupping his fists and asking Zhao Wenhua for instructions.
"Okay, please retreat first." Zhao Wenhua waved his hand to the tiger guards who entered the tent and dismissed them.
Then, he looked at He Qing with a smile.
"Well, this is an oversight on my part. Indeed, the memorandum submitted to the Holy Emperor cannot be taken too seriously. However, I also ask the old general to understand that the Holy Emperor is still waiting for the results of the sacrifice to the sea." Zhao Wenhua said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, understand, understand." He Qing nodded repeatedly.
"Merlin, the pen and ink are waiting for the signature of the old general." Zhao Wenhua nodded with satisfaction and said to Hu Zongxian beside him.
"Yes."
Hu Zongxian responded, skillfully picked up the pen and ink, opened the last page of the memorial, and placed it on the table.
"General He, please do it." Hu Zongxian dipped the brush in ink and ran it twice on the inkstone to put the brush in the best writing condition. Then he looked at He Qing with a smile and urged.
"Ahem, okay."
He Qing gritted his teeth, stepped forward, picked up a brush and signed his name on the back of the memorial.
If he had encountered this situation when he was young, or even before the age of fifty, He Qing would never have succumbed and signed the memorial. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. If I lose this time, I accept the punishment. I, Qing He, am confident that I will make meritorious service and wash away my sins in the future. The humiliation of this defeat has led to more dazzling military exploits. But now that I am older, I have reached the age where I am about to retire and return to my hometown. I am no longer young, and there is not much time. Before I retire and return to my hometown, can I stand up again? He no longer has the confidence to do battle.
If he can no longer make military exploits, he will bring shame to his ancestors, and the kindness he left to his children will be greatly reduced.
In the future, being mentioned by the younger generation of the family will no longer be an honor, but an old guy who has brought shame to the family.
You can't do it if you don't accept it.
So, He Qing compromised, signed his name after the memorial, and endorsed Zhao Wenhua's memorial.
Seeing He Qing be the first to sign his name after the memorial, Zhao Wenhua's face suddenly smiled like a flower.
Zhao Wenhua confirmed He Qing’s signature. After confirming that it was correct, he praised with a smile: “Haha, the iron is painted with silver hooks, and the pen is like a dragon and a snake. General He’s handwriting is really not inferior to today’s famous names. ”
"No, no, Mr. Zhao is so grateful."
He Qing weakly raised his hand, as if the signature just now used up all his strength, more than any battle he had ever fought in his life. My body, my whole person seemed to have aged ten years all of a sudden.
"General Shen and General He have already signed their names. How about you?" Zhao Wenhua looked at Shen Xiyi with a smile.
Shen Xiyi took a deep breath, "I also think there is nothing wrong with Mr. Zhao's memorial, and I would like to sign it."
"Old General Shen, please."
Hu Zongxian dipped the brush in ink again, placed it on the inkstone, and stretched out his hand to signal Shen Xiyi to come forward and sign.
"Thank you."
Shen Xiyi clasped his fists, and then walked slowly towards the desk. These short few steps exhausted his energy, and he stood in front of the desk and paused for two seconds. It took him a few seconds to regain his strength, picked up the brush and signed his name after the memorial.
Zhao Wenhua took a closer look and nodded with a satisfied smile, "Old General Shen's calligraphy is not inferior to that of Old General He. The Luan is flying and the phoenix is about to fly, and there is a lot of energy. Yanjin style.”
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao. Shen did read Yan Zhenqing's copybooks for a few years. Over time, he was lucky enough to learn something about it." Shen Xiyi shook her head sadly, and her whole person seemed to be much older.
"Haha, General Shen is so humble. This handwriting is not as simple as superficial. He has at least two or three tastes."
Zhao Wenhua was in a good mood and complimented Shen Xiyi with a smile.
Next, Zhao Wenhua glanced at the remaining unsigned people, Tang Kekuan, Yu Dayou, Linhuai Marquis and Zhu Pingan.
There is no problem with Zhu Pingan, because this memorial was originally proposed by Zhu Pingan.
As for the Marquis of Linhuai, the Marquis of Linhuai will naturally have no problem. He has made great contributions in this memorial and captured ninety-eight Japanese pirate heads, unless he was kicked in the head by a donkey. Only then will there be any opinions.
Therefore, only Tang Kekuan and Yu Dayou are left.
In comparison, Tang Kekuan is younger in qualifications and less famous, so he should be easy to overcome, so Zhao Wenhua focused his attention on Tang Kekuan's face.
"General Tang, you are a general, and you have worked hard on the anti-Japanese battlefield for many years. What do you think of this memorial?"
Zhao Wenhua stared at Tang Kekuan with burning eyes and asked slowly road.
"The last general will comment on the memorial." Tang Kekuan paused at this point, as if he was considering his words.
The atmosphere in the tent became tense again.
He Qing and Shen Xiyi looked at Tang Kekuan. They had already signed the memorial with shame. Naturally, they did not want another accident to happen to the memorial. They kept using their eyes to signal Tang Kekuan to come forward and sign the memorial.
"Haha, I'm so happy to see you. I feel a little itchy when I see the words of General He and General Shen."
At this time, Zhu Pingan smiled and broke Aware of the tense atmosphere in the tent, he stepped forward and signed his name before anyone could react.
“Haha, my hands are itchy too.”
The Marquis of Linhuai also came forward to sign. He had been eager to come forward to sign. It was not until Zhu Pingan signed that he dared to come forward to sign.
"There are many casualties in the camp and there are many affairs. It is not advisable to delay. It is better to finish the work early and return to the camp early to make arrangements." Yu Dayou also stepped forward to sign.
"Alas, the general doesn't think there is any problem with this memorial." Tang Kekuan sighed, and also stepped forward to sign his name.
Seeing this, Zhao Wenhua smiled like a flower. (End of this chapter)
