Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Chapter 145 Sudden attack, the court was surprised

"We summon the left commander of the Fifth Army, the great scholar of Diange, to the Shangzhu Kingdom. We specially come to see Dr. Guanglu and the Duke of Lang Kingdom, Wang Qi, to come to the palace to see him!!!"

The little eunuch dragged out the word "see" in his long tail. With the eyes of the entire Wuying Palace civil and military staff watching, Wang Qi stepped into the hall step by step, bringing a sense of oppression and solemnity to the entire hall.

Perhaps after fighting on the battlefield for a long time, a fierceness will be condensed around the body. The ordinary officials in the palace looked at Wang Qi, but for some reason they always dared not look at him for a long time, otherwise their eyes would sting and they would feel dizzy, which made them feel quite forced.

Wang Qi stood there quietly, as deep as the abyss and the mountains, the power of the superior man had quietly come into being.

Ye Xianggao, the chief minister of the cabinet, glanced at Wang Qi, his eyes full of contradictions and helplessness. Wang Qi's words in the pavilion a few days ago still rang in his ears, making him really sweat in his heart.

On the other side, Han Xu, Zuo Guangdou and others also looked sideways. Wang Qi returned again. As soon as he entered the pass, he beheaded the fourth-rank deputy inspector of the imperial court. It was obvious that there was no relationship between Wang Qi and Dong Lin. It will be better!
  In addition, Sun Chengzong and other neutral factions, as well as members of the Zhejiang Party, also looked at Duke Lang, each weighing in their minds what kind of shock the young Duke's return would bring to the court situation!

"Your Majesty, Wang Qi, comes to see my emperor, long live, long live!" Wang Qi came to the palace hall again, came to Zhu Youxiao, raised his robe and bowed down.

"My dear, come to your senses quickly! Come and give me a seat!" Perhaps out of guilt for Wang Qi and regret for crossing the river and burning down the bridge, the moment Zhu Youxiao saw Wang Qi, his face became embarrassed. Before Wang Qi could kneel down, he had already extended his hand to support him and spoke without any courtesy.

"My beloved, you have accomplished great feats by cleaning up Liaodong and wiping out the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty. When I heard the news of the great victory, I couldn't believe it for a moment. All the dear ladies in the court were also shocked at that time. The words of the peace of Liao Dynasty in the past three years are still in my ears. , but in less than a month, the Jurchen chief slaves have been wiped out, which is really amazing!" Zhu Youxiao leaned forward and looked at his beloved, and added: "The merits of loving your beloved can be learned from the sun and the moon, and shared by heaven and earth. You know, the civil and military model of the Manchu dynasty, and the model of the common people in the world."

As Zhu Youxiao spoke, he rubbed his hands and said, "Now that Ai Qing is back in Beijing, I can consult Ai Qing on many military and national affairs in the government and the public. After all, no one can discuss military and national affairs between the government and the public, and among the ministers." Aiqing wants to compare."

In one sentence, he not only praised Wang Qi's achievements in Liaodong, but also explained why Wang Qi was recalled to the capital in a hurry.

Although it is actually a bit hypocritical.
  If it were someone else, after being praised by the emperor, he would definitely reply: It is all thanks to the curtains of His Majesty's court that the humble ministers can display their ambitions. In the Liaodong matter, the small achievements will not be as bright as the bright moon.

But Wang Qi was sitting there, with an upright posture, neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Majesty is so complimentary, I just did my duty."

Who deserves the credit for destroying a country?
  Wang Qi's words of duty brought shame on the faces of all the ministers in the world.

This is your duty, then don’t we just work for a living?

In the court, everyone looked at Wang Qi's answer.

Zhu Youxiao on the throne was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face became brighter. He stretched out his hand to wave to Wei Zhongxian: "Go and bring up the gift I prepared for Wang Aiqing!"

It is normal for the young Duke Lang to be a little arrogant. Now that the imperial court employs people, Zhu Youxiao cannot be angry with Wang Qi because of this matter. After all, there is only a long way to go. When the sea is clear and the rivers are clear, and peace is achieved in all directions, then Ma Nanshan will really be released. It's time to hide the bird behind the bow.

Not long after, under the gaze of everyone, Wei Zhongxian walked back quickly, followed by four young eunuchs. The four of them carried a plaque covered with red silk and walked into the hall.

"This plaque was made by me myself," Zhu Youxiao stood up and walked down the jade steps, standing in front of the plaque: "I also asked Dong Qichang from the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing to write an inscription for Duke Lang."

At this time, Wang Qi also stood up.

All the civil and military officials of the imperial court also looked at the plaque quietly. “Open it!” Zhu Youxiao caressed it with both hands, obviously very satisfied with this work.

With a crash, the red silk fell down, and a plaque with black edges and gold wire and a silver fir tree as the main body appeared in front of everyone.

‘Huanghuang Wuqu’

The four words are extremely powerful and flying freely, as if they are carrying a force that penetrates the back of the paper, making people look at it and feel the flying feeling of the person who wrote it.

Dong Qichang is nearly eighty years old, but his wrist strength is still showing.

If the price for this plaque were to start, it would cost tens of thousands of dollars, with no upper limit!
  "I thank your Majesty for your grace!" Wang Qi saluted again with a respectful look on his face.

Hahaha!
  Zhu Youxiao reached out and patted Wang Qi on the shoulder: "No need to thank you. If you are in Liaodong, I will feel at ease. If the court has you, the world will be stable! I want to thank you more."

After saying that, Zhu Youxiao turned around and said: "Go, send it to Duke Lang's mansion immediately, hang it up directly, and let everyone in the world see and learn what is my hero and the hero of the Ming Dynasty! "

"According to the order!" Wei Zhongxian bowed and walked out without stopping with the four young eunuchs. Wei Zhongxian always did this kind of thing by himself.

In the palace, the guilt in his heart was slightly relieved. Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood. He walked briskly up the jade steps and sat back on the throne: "Today Wang Aiqing returns to Beijing. I should congratulate Liu Aiqing. I will take Lang with me in a few days." The Duke went to the Ancestral Temple to pay homage to his ancestors and comfort their spirits in heaven! Please make arrangements as soon as possible."

Liu Zongzhou had an argument with Wang Qi outside Chaoyang Gate a few days ago. Now that he was called out by the emperor, he felt depressed, but he still had to do things, so he could only stand up slowly: "I obey the order!"

"Today's meeting, if nothing happens, let's go back to work, let's break up!" After Zhu Youxiao finished his instructions, he wanted to go back to the harem to work on the carpentry work. The plaque just now made him feel itchy and wanted to build it again. piece.

"Minister, I have a decree to report!" As soon as Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, Gu Zufa, the minister of Taichang Temple, who was standing in the center of the parade of ministers, suddenly stood up.

"Huh?" Zhu Youxiao was stunned when he heard this. Why should he waste time talking about this Taichang Temple Yamen matter in the morning?

But out of imperial dignity, Zhu Youxiao still asked: "What's the matter?"

"I am impeaching Han Xu, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the great scholar of the Imperial Palace. He has improperly appointed people, which has led to the rise of refugees in Shanhaiguan, which has damaged the reputation of the imperial court. It has also caused chaos among the refugees and is harmful to the country!"

Gu Zufa stood in the main hall and said every word that made everyone in the court feel dizzy.

He Tianyou was a student of Gao Panlong. When he was appointed deputy inspector of Shanhaiguan Pass and concurrently held the position of Military Preparatory Officer, it was indeed through the process of Han Xu, the Minister of Civil Affairs. Did Gao Panlong mention it to Han Xu? No one knows, but now that He Tianyou of Bingbei Road was killed by Wang Qi, Gu Zufa suddenly came out to attack, saying that Han Xu had improperly hired people, causing refugees to spread everywhere, and the country was uneasy.
  When did Gu Zufa and Wang Qi get together?
  Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes and was a little confused.

And Han Xu's eyes narrowed, and he was about to show off: How dare a small Taichang Temple minister dare to be the first to do so, and he did not want the dignity of a scholar in order to cling to Wang Qi?
  Two words: seeking death!
