The capital camp is stationed in the prosperous capital and protects the capital. Its status is obviously higher than that of the frontier troops in the borderlands. There is no doubt about this. If you can enter the Beijing camp from the border army, it will be considered a high promotion for these soldiers at the lowest level.

Therefore, these Ma Shilong's servants could hardly believe their ears after hearing this. However, those smarter servants quickly came to their senses. As the emperor said, when the imperial court was hiring people, the Jianlu almost invaded the capital. Naturally, they hoped that the capital camp would be composed of elite soldiers. And these servants of Ma Shilong are a good source of soldiers.

The only thing these servants are good at is fighting. If they were disarmed and returned to the fields, they would probably starve to death, otherwise they would become bandits or join other people as servants. Instead of doing this, it is better to join the Beijing Camp!

Therefore, after Mangui announced the imperial decree, not long after, most of the servants expressed their gratitude to the emperor for his magnanimous grace and asked to join the Beijing camp.

As the admiral of the Beijing camp, Mangui naturally hopes that his subordinates will all be elite. His original servants fought to the death with Jianlu outside the capital city. In the end, only a few hundred were left, and many of them were injured.

Therefore, of course he wanted to have elite warriors under his command. During yesterday's discussion, he was very happy when he heard that the emperor wanted the capital to swallow up Ma Shilong's servants, and his voice reached the sky when he accepted the order.

But one thing is that these people who join the Beijing Camp will no longer be anyone's servants, but soldiers registered with the Ministry of War.

With everyone happy, Mangui immediately ordered the reorganization. He had limited time and had to complete the reorganization before the low-level officers came back. This was planned in advance.

At this time, these low-level officers in Tiananmen Square had just listened to the introduction of the Ming Dynasty Loyalty and Martyrs Hall by the commander of the Jinyiwei. Then we were queuing up to enter the Ming Zhonglie Hall in small groups at a time for an on-site visit. It would take a long time to visit all these people.

At the same time, in the Huangji Palace, this time King Qin’s reward based on merit, or reward and punishment, was basically completed.

It was already afternoon, and all the civil and military officials had been hungry for a long time. The emperor ordered to withdraw from the court and left immediately.

However, among the generals, the generals of King Qin's army, as long as they were not imprisoned for their crimes, were transferred to Wuying Hall, where the emperor would reward them with banquets.

This can be regarded as a proper intention and a matter of course, but no one thinks much about it. However, Wen Tiren and other people who participated in the discussion yesterday knew that these senior generals were not allowed to return to the camp and were dragged away. Otherwise, given the shortage of food in the capital, there would be no banquet in Wuying Palace!

However, the so-called banquet was not the delicacies of mountains and seas, big fish and meat as imagined. On everyone's desk, there were only four white steamed buns, a plate of side dishes, and a small pot of wine.

Before the emperor came, all the generals couldn't help but look at each other in shock when they saw such a banquet. Even if they were camped outside the city, the food they usually eat would be better than this!

But come to think of it, there were still maids and chamberlains standing nearby, so no one dared to complain. Especially when they looked up and found that there were only white-faced steamed buns on the imperial table, just like them, there were even two steamed buns missing, they didn't dare to choke.

At this time, these generals were all hungry, and the steamed buns were still attractive to them. However, they could not move their chopsticks before the emperor arrived. I could only smell the aroma of the steamed buns they disdained, and my stomach growled from time to time.

Out of boredom, many generals looked around. It was rare for them to come to Wuying Palace once, so they had to take a good look.

After watching for a while, their eyes involuntarily focused on the position near the imperial case, fixed on Zu Dashou.

From the commander-in-chief guarding one side, he has become a sinecure. Although the official position is high, what is the use of this? Many generals couldn't help but feel secretly happy when they saw Zu Dashou sitting there in a daze with his head down and his face cold.

If Zu Dashou had not escaped from the battle, even if he did not have a title like Man Gui, he would never have been promoted openly or covertly! Everyone knew this. In the final analysis, it was still due to the influence of that incident. How could the emperor reuse him? It would be a mercy not to kill him!

Just as they were gloating over their misfortune, the sound of "The Emperor has arrived" sounded, and immediately, they all left the table and knelt down to greet him.

Hu Guang changed into regular clothes and wore a black gauze winged crown, which looked quite handsome. With a smile on his face, he walked to the throne and sat down, then waved and said with a smile: "My lords, please get back on your feet!"

These generals stood up after shouting "Long Live Shan" and returned to their seats. They all calmed down their emotions and sat there solemnly.

As a result, the Wuying Hall became quiet. Unfortunately, in this quiet environment, someone's stomach rumbled, which then caused the stomachs of several generals to rumble.

Hu Guang laughed when he heard this, and immediately raised his hand and said: "The meal time has passed long ago. Everyone should be hungry. Come on, let's all eat!"

As the emperor spoke, the generals in the palace picked up their chopsticks, picked up a white-faced steamed bun, and took a shallow bite. There is no way, you have to pay attention to etiquette in front of the emperor. Military generals are already known as roughnecks, and if they eat too much, it will be a joke.

But these generals only took a shallow bite and disappeared before chewing. This felt very uncomfortable.

Hu Guang kept looking at them, and couldn't help but smile again when he saw this situation. Then he reached out and picked up a white-faced steamed bun, and then said: "You don't have to worry about it. In my opinion, no matter whether you eat big or small, it's all right." It doesn’t make any difference, as long as you don’t disturb others and you can eat comfortably!”

When he spoke, these generals naturally looked up at him. Seeing the emperor actually holding the steamed buns with his hands, they couldn't help but be slightly startled. Then he saw the emperor taking a big bite of the steamed bun and chewing it, and he couldn't help but be even more surprised. But then they started to envy the emperor as he ate the steamed buns. It looked like he was enjoying himself, which was really weird!

After Hu Guang finished eating, he saw that the generals were still looking at him, so he gestured to the steamed buns in his hands and said with a smile: "Eat it!"

The emperor said it again, and these generals were no longer polite. With gratitude in their hearts, they all started to eat. Half of the white-flour steamed bun was gone in one bite, and my mouth was full of chews, which made it feel extremely satisfying.

Hu Guang saw them eating and continued: "Nowadays, the capital's supplies are tight, and food has also been controlled. Whether outside or in the palace, food must be saved. Therefore, I know that the banquet this time is simple. , but there is nothing we can do about it! When our treasury of the Ming Dynasty is full and the materials are abundant in the future, I will definitely invite you to a banquet again. By then, the delicacies of mountains and seas will definitely satisfy you! "
