Chapter 279: A desperate move to change my life
Cheng Su, who didn't believe it, would change his attitude of wanting to live or die. He happily held the letter and screamed.
"Hehehehe, oh oh oh, the kid has already gone to Fengzhou now... Why are we still going to Fengzhou? Is this kid thinking we are still in Fengzhou? No, no, no, boy, I have to go to Fengzhou .”
Shen Yue......
"Uncle Cheng, didn't you look behind you? Yaoguang asked you to stay in Pengcheng and don't run around, so as not to miss each other again. Wait for her to come back, and then you will go home together."
"Go home?" The excited Cheng Su suddenly paused when he heard these two words, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he suddenly looked at Shen Yue, shaking his head solemnly and solemnly, "No, I'm not going home. ”
Shen Yue was shocked: "Why?"
Why?
"Ha!"
I remember how helpless I felt when the Hou Mansion forced me to surrender to the army;
Thinking of the persecution of one’s own children being deliberately pushed off the city wall;
Thinking of the black whirlwind almost losing their lives while protecting them;
Then I thought about the sudden evacuation of the army when I was looking for the child, the sudden decrease in the search team, and my own helplessness...
No! He can't continue to be such a coward. He wants to make achievements. He wants to get into a high position and hold the people and power!
Being powerless again and again made him realize clearly that he had never been so eager to climb up step by step as he was now.
Only by climbing to a high position and holding power can he protect all the people he wants to protect, including his wife, children, friends...
The moment he learned that his niece was finally safe, Cheng Su put everything down and made a thorough decision. He secretly clenched his fists and decisively knelt down on one knee towards Shen Yue.
"General Shen, I have Cheng Su, a seventh-grade grain transport officer specially assigned to Kyoto, who is dedicated to serving the imperial court. Now he is willing to join the army of General Shen to fight for my Dajing and serve my Shen family army to the death. I swear to drive away the Tartars and restore our northern land. I hope General ”
Shen Yue... No uncle, what kind of trouble are you trying to make?
Immediately afterwards, two letters came out through the branch of Jishi Hall in Pengcheng. One followed the footsteps of the carrier pigeon and rushed to Jinling, asking Uncle Dong who was in Jinling to convey it to Yuhang. It was a confession letter written by Cheng Su to his wife; Flying to Fengzhou City, that was the notice delivered to Li Yaoguang.
At the same time, Shen Yue, whose brain was almost wiped out by Cheng Su, finally settled down and immersed himself in the study, writing a note to the court to plead for Cheng Su's credit.
Because Li Yaoguang's secret could not be exposed, and he also had his own selfish motives of not wanting to reveal that she was a woman, as well as the agreement he had made with her earlier, Shen Yue respected Li Yaoguang's wishes, and with a stroke of his pen, all credit for her aid to Fengzhou was given to her. On Cheng Su's body.
He wrote in large letters about Cheng Su's achievements, and expressed tactfully that Cheng Su had a strong desire to destroy the enemy, and begged the court to let him stay in the north. The letter was full of praise.
As soon as the discount is good, quickly enter Xinjing.
At the same time, Fei Ge, a branch of Jishi Hall, had left and entered Beijing almost at the same time as Kuai Ma Zhezi.
Not to mention how Meixue reacted to the letter Dr. Wu dragged Lu Fang to convey in Duke Chengen's mansion, but it was about the imperial court.
At the court meeting early the next morning, the emperor sat on a new dragon chair made of golden nanmu. He yawned and glanced at the ministers. As soon as the court began, the Minister of War came out with a folded book and shouted three times: long live the emperor.
The Northland has recaptured two cities one after another and driven out the raging wild dogs from the north of the river to the south of the Zhuohe River. The court has already received the battle report. These days, not to mention the palace and the court, the entire Jiangnan is full of joy. This makes The emperor was very happy, feeling that he was a peerless wise king, blessed by his ancestors, and he was very proud of himself.
At this meeting, the Minister of the Ministry of War finally came up with Shen Yue's request for merit. The emperor's eyes darkened, but his face was still very happy. As soon as he raised his hand, the eunuch beside him understood and personally came down from Jiulong Terrace. He took the book from the hand of the Minister of War and read it. Then he gave it to the emperor. The emperor carefully read the content and process and couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, okay! Little Shen Aiqing is very good, quite like a father! Well done! This battle has enhanced the prestige of our country and deserves a great reward. According to my will, Shen Yue will be promoted to the first rank, with a thousand taels of silver and a piece of cloth. Qianbo, as for this Cheng Su..."
The emperor was stuck and couldn't remember who he was. The eunuch next to him was so smart that he leaned over and whispered a reminder.
"Your Majesty, this is the sixth son of Zhenweihou Mansion. There was a big fuss at the beginning. This is the son of the family who joined the army on the street."
"Oh." The emperor nodded clearly, and Lang waved his hand with a smile, "This son is loyal and loyal. As a pioneer in transporting grain, he not only helped our army defeat the crisis in Pengcheng, but also led an army to rescue Fengzhou alone. He is truly loyal and loyal. His son is so rare that he made a decree to confer the title of General Huwei to Cheng Su, the sixth son of the Weihou Mansion, and gave him a pair of golden armor."
The next person was standing at the end of the court row, almost about to leave the court row. When Zhenwei waited under the jade steps outside the court row, he almost broke his teeth when he heard this.
Damn it, this is a job promotion!
However, no matter how much the clan fights internally, no matter how secretly they attack, they still have to be united with others. He still has to hold back a mouthful of old blood and go out to thank the disobedient dog.
The fourth rank, the fourth rank general, is still personally appointed by the royal family. It is much more glorious than being promoted by the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of War. Isn't it much better than the promotion of the fifth rank, which I have no title at the moment? Too bad it's not me.
"I would like to express my gratitude to your majesty for your unworthy descendants. Long live your majesty."
"Without ceremony, I am safe, hahaha. I hope that you and other ministers will work together to restore peace to me. I look forward to the day when I can return to the northern capital."
"I am willing to fight to the death, my Majesty, long live, long live, long live."
Today is a happy event. The emperor was happy and asked about politics again. When he learned that there was nothing going on inside and outside the court, he tried his best to ask the eunuchs to withdraw from the court.
As soon as the emperor left, he retracted the hand that he had almost pinched and put it into the court robe, trying not to be seen by others. He shook off the numb legs that he had just kneeled on. Seeing Qin Xiangguo leave the hall, he hurriedly gritted his teeth and followed. Go up.
When the ministers around Qin Xiangguo dispersed, he wanted to get closer. The eunuch beside his majesty came out from behind. The marquis of Zhenwei could only watch Qin Xiangguo follow the eunuch around the Qiankun Hall and go to Later he left for the Antai Palace where His Majesty has his office.
Marquis Zhenwei was extremely curious and couldn't follow him. He watched the person walk away from a distance, and finally disappeared behind the inner palace gate. Marquis Zhenwei was still thinking in his heart, is there any important matter for Your Majesty to invite Qin Xiangguo?
Inside the Antai Hall of the New Palace.
When Qin Xiangguo was led into the side hall by the eunuch, the emperor was leaning on the pillow of the warm pavilion by the window, and the two palace ladies were squeezing their shoulders and beating their legs, one on the left and the other on the right.
When Qin Xiangguo came in, the emperor raised his eyelids and did not move at all until Qin Xiangguo, who was over fifty years old, bowed down and said, "I have seen your majesty. May your majesty be safe and sound."
"Oh, the Prime Minister is here, look at me, alas, this southern land is not as good as the North Land, and I can't get used to lying down so softly. It's still more comfortable to sleep on the warm kang in the North Land. I feel tired for a while, so Prime Minister, don't blame me. ”
Qin Xiangguo knelt down and hurriedly raised his hands, "Your Majesty, you are busy with everything, so please take care of your holy body."
The emperor hurriedly said as if he had just come to his senses: "Oh, look, I'm just talking. Please get up quickly, Prime Minister. Come on, don't show me your seat yet."
The eldest eunuch looked frightened and quickly moved a round stool to Nuan Ta and put it down. Qin Xiangguo's eyes were half drooped and he looked down. When he stood up and bowed, his face was full of frightened respect, "Thank you, Your Majesty, old minister." Don’t dare.”
"Hey, the Prime Minister is an old man from the two dynasties. He has worked hard and made great achievements. If you say this, you are alienating me."
