Chongzhen Chat Group

To be honest, they really couldn't imagine that the emperor actually paid so much for the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall, and even donated the jewelry of the ladies of the palace. This level of attention was simply unheard of!

However, while they were still shocked, Liu Xingzuo said loudly: "Not only that, in order to save the Zhonglie Hall of the Ming Dynasty from being endangered by fire, the emperor deigned to explore the work of a mason and invented fire-resistant cement. You can see, this Zhonglie Hall Is there any wood in the hall? It’s all gravel, sand and iron bars! Do you know your majesty’s good intentions?”

Hearing this, Tiananmen Square was very quiet for a moment, and then, someone didn't know who knelt down first and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

With the demonstration taking the lead, everyone else immediately knelt down and shouted "Long Live the Mountain".

Among them, Xu Wenbo thought that he was working for Ma Shilong just to get a bite of food. If he dies in battle one day, he will have nothing, he will never care about him, and he will not even know his name.

In such a comparison, it is even more commendable that the emperor, as the lord of all people, can care so much!

You have to say that the imperial court was in arrears with military pay, and many soldiers either starved to death or sold their sons and daughters to live a living. There is no resentment in your heart that is false.

But can you blame the emperor for this? It's not all those corrupt officials who are causing trouble. Even the marshals, including Ma Shilong, also participated. The military pay that should belong to the soldiers was deducted, so that the slaves who were not theirs had neither enough food nor clothing to keep them warm!

If possible, who wants to be someone else's slave? All the credit for killing the enemy and risking one's life belongs to the master. The servants, at most, only received some money.

Thinking like this, Xu Wenbo unknowingly felt more resentment towards Ma Shilong. It’s true that you don’t know until you compare. It’s only after comparing that you realize that being a servant is actually not worth it.

Liu Xingzuo looked at the mass of darkness kneeling in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that no matter whether they were imperial soldiers or servants of Ma Shilong and others, if anyone dared to go against the emperor, at least if these people wanted to follow, they would probably have to think twice before doing so.

After a while, he said loudly: "The emperor is busy with many things, and it is too late to make detailed regulations on matters related to the Ming Zhonglie Hall. However, the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies have been ordered to discuss it. Although there is no final conclusion at present, it has been There are a few rules that the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies have reached a consensus on, and I can reveal them here."

When it comes to personal interests, even if you don't have the heart to gossip, you will still be very concerned about it. All these junior officers refocused their attention and listened with their ears pricked up.

In the Huangji Palace, the reward based on merit is still going on. After He Kegang was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, the former guerrilla Cao Wenzhao was promoted to deputy general, just one level short of being called a commander-in-chief.

Cao Wenzhao passed over the generals and went directly from guerrilla to deputy general, which is really surprising. However, considering that in the Battle of Changli, he was the first to arrive on the battlefield in the Guan Ning Army and became the main force in annihilating the Jianlu, and he also played a role in the rescue of Yongping, it is not so abrupt to be upgraded to two levels in a row.

"Shit luck!" The non-Guan Ning army generals, including Ma Shilong, could only curse in their hearts to vent their anger.

The next person to be rewarded was Zuo Yingxuan, the former magistrate of Changli County. Although he was born in Juren, he laid the foundation for the great victory of Changli because of his unbreakable defense of Changli. He was specially promoted to Ningqian Guards Preparation Qianshi. His main responsibilities were clearly to manage the troops, money, grain and farmland of Ningqian Guards, and inspect the defense of rivers and lakes. Supervise officers and soldiers, inquire about punishments, prohibit corruption, etc. The station is Ningyuan.

Along with Zuo Yingxuan, Li Shiqi, the leader of the Changli people, was also awarded the reward. He also made meritorious service in defending Changli and was promoted from a commoner to Ningyuan garrison.

In terms of military position, Li Shiqi surpassed the small flag, the general flag, and the general, and directly became a guard, and he was promoted even more powerfully. But not many people care about him. Probably because his official position was too small, he could not get into the eyes of these civil and military officials in the Huangji Palace.

However, many people also saw a bit of the emperor's intention: to put Li Shiqi and Zuo Yingxuan in Ningyuan, both civil and military, probably because they did not want them to be unfamiliar, restricted, and unable to do anything when they arrived in Ningyuan.

While thinking about this, many people peeked at Xiazu Dashou and others. However, Zu Dashou kept his head down, so he couldn't see anything. The commander-in-chief of Ningyuan is Wu Xiang, Zu Dashou's brother-in-law. It is estimated that life will not be so easy.

However, Zuo Yingxuan, Li Shiqi, Wu Xiang and others were not there. The imperial edict was read out to all civil and military officials and angels were sent to deliver it. Therefore, the attitude of the parties involved remains unclear.

There are also some people who are making secret calculations in their hearts while listening to the imperial edict. Datong General Man Gui has been promoted. I wonder who will take over this position?

There was also Hou Shilu, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu. When King Qin's army was defeated, those defeated soldiers also looted the people and fled back to Xuanfu. Therefore, Hou Shilu has been arrested and imprisoned by the Jinyi Guards. The position of the Xuanfu Commander-in-Chief is also vacant. I wonder who will take over?

And the commander-in-chief Hei Yunlong, Madeng Yun...

Hu Guang watched with cold eyes while Wang Dehua announced the decree. He paid special attention to Ma Shilong and saw that he occasionally expressed resentment. He couldn't help but think to himself that it seemed that the secret work of the Tonglu incident was done well. No one had discovered it yet. The focus was only on the merits and rewards. .

Suddenly, a voice called "Long Live the Mountain" came from outside. The large number of people and the loudness of the voice immediately drowned out Wang Dehua's voice announcing the decree.

Hu Guang and all the civil and military officials were slightly stunned, but they all heard that it was coming from the direction of Tiananmen. Thinking about what was going on over there, these people in the Huangji Palace all understood who was shouting long live the mountain.

Immediately, there were different reactions on the faces of the civil and military officials. Chief Assistant Wen Tiren showed a smile, while Ma Shilong and other generals like King Qin frowned, wondering what was going on over there to be so excited? You can't let this happen just because of an unfinished Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall, right?

Other officials were also surprised, or disdainful, etc., but these expressions were immediately restrained as soon as they were revealed. Their attention immediately returned to Wang Dehua, listening to him continue to read the imperial edict. After all, this is a big deal for them and needs to be focused on.

And Hu Guang couldn't help but smile on his face. It seems that the ideological education work in the Ming Zhonglie Hall is quite effective. From now on, it would be a good idea to use the Ming Zhonglie Hall as an ideological education base for patriotism and Ming Dynasty!

Thinking this way, Hu Guang felt more relaxed. Although he was sitting on the throne with hundreds of civil and military officials standing in front of him, he still entered the chat group to see if there was any news.

What a coincidence, Liu Wangshi's icon was shaking in the Jinyiwei working group. Hu Guang switched over and heard it, and he was immediately happy.
