Chapter 175 On rewards for meritorious deeds

  At this time, Emperor Hongzhi\'s face looked cloudy and uncertain.

  He was full of doubts in his heart, and during this hesitation, he heard an **** singing outside: "Your Majesty, the British Duke Zhang Mao, the Commander of Jinyiwei Mou Bin, and the Minister of the Ministry of War Ma Wensheng are asking to see you."

   "..."

  Emperor Hongzhi was startled, looking a little surprised.

   This morning, it was too lively.

"Come in."

  These three people rushed in together, as if they were fighting for time and credit.

Mou Bin walked the fastest, walking in the front, and probably blocked Zhang Mao\'s head with his body. Zhang Mao\'s burly body immediately bared his teeth, and then he swept his big hand violently. Mou Bin staggered and almost fell down. , his body bumped into the door frame, and he glared at Zhang Mao.

   Zhang Mao, on the other hand, paid him back with contempt.

  Others are afraid of Jinyiwei, but Zhang Mao, a hereditary and irreplaceable prince, is not afraid at all.

   Ma Wensheng, who was walking last, wanted to squeeze, but after seeing it, he slowed down all of a sudden, as if he was very self-aware.

  The three of them finally entered the hall, and immediately saluted respectfully.

  Emperor Hongzhi pulled his face and looked at them with heavy eyes.

  The three said almost in unison: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, the great victory in Guizhou, let the whole world celebrate."

   "..."

  Emperor Hongzhi was completely stunned.

   Soon, three memorials appeared in his hands.

  Guizhou Commander, Guizhou Commander-in-Chief, Jinyiwei Qianhu Officer.

   These three people are almost independent of each other, but their reports are surprisingly consistent today.

  Where Emperor Hongzhi was standing, he even felt a little weak in his legs, but Xiao Jing had sharp eyes and quickly grabbed Emperor Hongzhi.

   Immediately, a wave of dizziness struck, and Emperor Hongzhi held his forehead.

  Xiao Jing\'s face was startled, and he hurriedly said: "The imperial doctor, the imperial doctor..."

   "No need." Emperor Hongzhi shook his hand, he couldn\'t help but smile bitterly, although he just said it with certainty, thinking that it was bound to be false credit, but now... he was completely shaken.

  Making meritorious deeds is not a new book, but does everyone pretend to be meritorious?

  A closer look at the memorials for the victory shows that almost no one took credit for it. Since none of them flattered themselves, how could it be said that they were pretending to be credited?

   What\'s more, do so many people dare to take the risk of beheading and tell such a big lie?

   Impossible, absolutely impossible.

  The imperial court has appointed so many officials in Guizhou for the purpose of weighing. At least as far as Emperor Hongzhi knows, the relationship between the governor and the commander-in-chief is not harmonious. Last month, Wang Shi secretly impeached the commander-in-chief. As for the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief, there is no need to mention that one is a military officer in Guizhou province in name, and the other is a senior official appointed by the imperial court to Guizhou to manage the military. These two people can live in harmony , then hell.

By the way, there is also Jin Yiwei, the thousand-household officer of Jin Yiwei, who must be eager to find out the fault of the governor. If there is evidence of impostors and impeachment comes up, it is the real credit. People don\'t want the credit, so why cover it up for you, Wang Shi?

  Emperor Hongzhi gasped.

  He finally came up with a bold idea.

unless…

This is real.

   Only a real victory can have such a situation.

  Three Thousand Mountain Camp, it was established in less than a few months, and it turned out to be such a miracle...

  Emperor Hongzhi was no longer dizzy, and even in this short moment, he felt his whole body became lighter, as if all the fatigue was swept away.

There was light in his eyes, and he looked special, Long Jinghu broke free from Xiao Jing\'s support, and then paced back and forth in the warm pavilion excitedly, only to see him muttering: "Okay, this is a great achievement , is a great achievement... With this mountain camp, why worry about the rebels in the southwest, can\'t be cut off as soon as possible! If so...if so..."

He chanted repeatedly, and everyone\'s eyes followed his figure. He didn\'t realize it, and he just said to himself: "If this is the case, why should the imperial court mobilize so many troops to waste money and food in Guizhou, and build more land?" A few mountain camps are enough to maintain the situation..."

  Emperor Hongzhi, who was usually cautious and steady, lost his mind for a moment, and fell into a rare state of excitement.

No wonder he was excited. The rebellion in the southwest has lasted for more than a year and caused great losses to the court. It has always been Emperor Hongzhi\'s heart disease. The most important thing is that this time the court is not a tragic victory, but a classic one. victory.

  Suddenly, he paused before he remembered something, and then he looked at Liu Jian suddenly: "Liu Qing\'s family, Fang Jifan, is right!"

  Liu Jian was also shocked.

  He searched his brains and couldn\'t imagine why all the people on the stage in Guizhou would unite with one voice. As His Majesty said, maybe...the great victory really existed. This is not a false report, it is the truth.

  Even Liu Jian, who has always been prudent, is... confused at this moment.

   When Emperor Hongzhi said this to him, Liu Jian couldn\'t laugh or cry: "That\'s right, Your Majesty, Fang Jifan...is right."

  Many people are confused.

  Because of this incident, Emperor Hongzhi didn\'t tell anyone except the parties involved at the time.

The reason why I didn\'t mention it is because I feel that I can\'t afford to lose that person. Fang Jifan, this guy, occasionally talks nonsense and nonsense, but the emperor, because of this stupid thing, really ordered Guizhou to try it out. Let\'s try Fang Jifan\'s method. Wouldn\'t it be a joke if this... spread out?

   Therefore, this matter has always been only in the heart of Emperor Hongzhi, which is why he issued this order with Zhongzhi.

  Can now...

After receiving Liu Jian\'s affirmative answer, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly laughed loudly: "It\'s really unexpected, where did this guy learn it from? I knew it. He will make me look at him with admiration. This kid Ah... this kid..."

   "Immediately deliver the decree!" Emperor Hongzhi said solemnly: "Order Fang Jifan to have an audience. I want him to come to me properly. I really want to know what this guy can do..."

   "Your Majesty..." Li Dongyang stopped Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, no, the list hasn\'t been released yet."

  Emperor Hongzhi is already smiling, great victory, this is a great victory.

  But... Li Qing\'s family, what does this mean? What does this have to do with rankings?

  Emperor Hongzhi was overjoyed, obviously confused for a moment.

   After taking a look at Li Dongyang, he paused for a moment before he realized what was going on.

   Then, he walked quickly to the imperial case and looked at the scattered answer sheets on the case. The top one was Wang Shouren\'s article.

  Emperor Hongzhi suddenly understood.

  Yes, the palace test...

  Wang Shouren\'s policy theory is well written and won my heart.

   It\'s just... At this moment, he put Wang Shouren\'s article aside, then lowered his head and rummaged through the imperial case, finally found the answer sheet of Ouyang Zhi and others.

   took a deep breath.

  The problem now is that it is no longer up to him to decide what the results of the imperial examination will be.

  The facts are right in front of our eyes, and the policy theory of Ouyang Zhi and others can be called a model.

   Right now, there is only one standard answer for the imperial examination, and there are so many test papers, but there are not many people who use this standard answer to answer the questions, only a few people.

  Taking a deep breath, he... already had a calculation in his heart.

  He raised his head, glanced at everyone, and then said: "Prepare to reward the meritorious deeds. I will not hesitate to reward such great achievements."

  He set the tone, but it made everyone have a glimmer of expectation.

  Wang Shi, as well as the chief military officer, and even the middle officer Yang Xiongren, I am afraid that this time they are going to make a fortune.

  At this time, Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the Ministry of War is here..."

   "What does this have to do with the Ministry of War?" Emperor Hongzhi stared at Ma Wensheng. He was in a better mood now, and he was less cautious than usual, and his words were really straightforward.

   Ma Wensheng was embarrassed.

   It won the battle, and rewards for meritorious service, since when is it not the business of the Ministry of War?

Emperor Hongzhi straightened his face, and said seriously: "For this great victory, the officers and soldiers of Guizhou will all be rewarded, but their rewards should not be rushed for a while. Reward the first person first... Liu Qing\'s family, what do you think?" ?”

   Many people are even more confused.

  The person who made the first contribution, Wang Shi?

   Yes, it is most likely Wang Shi. After all, Wang Shi is the governor and presides over the overall situation of Guizhou.

  Liu Jian smiled slightly, and he was also full of joy. With this great victory, he could breathe a long sigh of relief.

  He nodded and said, "Your Majesty\'s words are true."

   "Then, whoever made the first contribution should be rewarded like this?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Jian.

  Liu Jian pondered and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be in a hurry when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds. Right now, the imperial examination is the most important thing. I don\'t know how many people are looking forward to it now, waiting for the release of the imperial list."

In fact, he can\'t make up his mind, the credit is too great, and he, like the emperor, agrees on one thing, that is, this huge credit, at least the first credit, must have nothing to do with the people in Guizhou .

  Without Fang Jifan, where did the mountain camp come from? Without the mountain camp, where did the great victory come from?

  Others, in fact, just hitched a ride and drank Fang Jifan\'s footwashing water.

  This Fang Jifan...is amazing.

  This is true for the mentally retarded, but teaching myself to these normal people... makes me feel ashamed.

  So if you want to reward, you must be generous, but how to reward, but it needs to be considered.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi calmed down a little bit, but he still couldn\'t hide his joy, and said with a slight smile on his lips: "In that case, let\'s release this list tomorrow, and there is really no verification right now. If it is necessary, after the announcement of the list tomorrow, I will order Fang Jifan to enter the palace to have an audience, yes, and his father as well."

   "The minister... obeys the order."

  Zhang Mao and others are still at a loss, and really can\'t understand. What does this have to do with Fang Jifan and the imperial examination?

   But obviously, other people didn\'t dare to ask more questions, and could only quietly listen to the emperor\'s orders.
