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

Chapter 24 The martial arts descended from heaven, written by me personally

Wang Qi?

Ye Xianggao hadn't reacted just now, but now after a reminder from Han Xu, he finally remembered that the official of the Hundred Households who made the first contribution was the nephew of Wang Huazhen, the governor of Liaodong, right?

More than a month ago, Ye Xianggao received a letter from Wang Huazhen, in which he expressed his intention to get married and to act as a matchmaker for his nephew to marry Ye Xianggao's granddaughter. At that time, Ye Xianggao felt that Wang Qi was just a dandy in the government office and had no qualifications. He married his precious granddaughter, so he found an excuse to excuse himself.

Why is it that today, he, Wang Huazhen, is so bold as to put the first achievement in Liaodong on Wang Qi's name?

On the throne, Emperor Tianqi was a little confused: "A hundred officials killed the enemy on the battlefield and made military exploits. Why not?"

"Your Majesty," Sun Chengzong stood up at this time and explained Emperor Tianqi's confusion: "The memorial said that more than a thousand enemies were killed and countless captured. They even killed the Zhengbai Banner Huang Taiji's Chinese Army Dagu. Outside Siping Fort, They also made a surprise attack on the Mang Gurtai camp, forcing Nurhaci to order the withdrawal."

"I also know these things, what's the problem?" Zhu Youxiao became more and more confused as he spoke.

"The problem is that Wang Qi is just a member of a hundred households. It is impossible for him to lead a large army and perform those extraordinary feats." Sun Chengzong bowed to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, if the results of this battle are true, I think Xiong Tingbi will also be the leader of Liaodong Manager. We will write a letter at the meeting to report the victory, and then the truth will naturally be revealed! We just need to wait a little longer."

As soon as Sun Chengzong's words came out, everyone in the hall fell into silence.

It was such a great victory, why did he become so sneaky?
  Ye Xianggao is already thinking about whether to reveal the relationship between Wang Huazhen and Wang Qi
  On the other side, Zhu Youxiao's face had turned ugly.

Wei Zhongxian on the side saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he took two steps forward, bowed to the emperor, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I just asked someone to check the official record of Wang Huazhen, the governor of Liaodong."

"Huh?" Zhu Zhuyouxiao turned his head and said softly, signaling Wei Zhongxian to continue.

At this time, the attention of everyone in the hall was attracted by Wei Zhongxian.

"Wang Huazhen was a Jinshi in the 41st year of Wanli reign. The examiner at that time is now the chief minister of the cabinet, Mr. Ye," Wei Zhongxian said, leaning forward and speaking slowly.

"Does this have anything to do with this matter?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

There are so many officials in the court who have the same subject as Jinshi, let alone having any relationship with the examiner. This is not a shameful thing at all.

Wei Zhongxian said unhurriedly: "I heard that Wang Huazhen has a nephew named Wang Qi. He must be the official of one hundred households in Guangning City in the memorial. More than a month ago, Wang Huazhen proposed marriage to Ye Mansion, hoping that his nephew would marry Ye Mansion. Miss."

The marriage between the chief minister of the current dynasty and the border official?

Everyone was shocked!
  If this matter is confirmed, Ye Xianggao can retire and return home early.

"Ye Aiqing," Zhu Youxiao frowned and looked at Ye Xianggao, the chief minister of the cabinet: "Is this serious?" "In response to your majesty, I have some teacher-student friendship with Wang Huazhen," Ye Xianggao took a deep breath. He calmed his mind with his tone, but he didn't expect that the wilted Wei Zhongxian would suddenly make this move.

Zhu Youxiao said nothing, waiting to hear what was going on.

"But the marriage was clearly rejected by me at that time. The matter did not take place. If you want to check, I have some correspondence for inspection!" Ye Xianggao looked at Wei Zhongxian with cold eyes: "I would like to ask something. Ask, the Supervisor of Ceremonies has reached out so far to inquire about the news to the home of the chief minister of the dynasty!"

"What we are talking about now is about Liaodong affairs and has nothing to do with the Supervisor of Ceremonies. I also believe what Mr. Ye Ge said." Zhu Youxiao now just wants to know whether Wang Qi's first contribution to Liaodong is true or not? What did the governor Wang Huazhen do in Liaodong?
  "Your Majesty, please calm down. I believe that Wang Huazhen has always been self-restrained and prudent, and since Liaodong is of great importance, Wang Huazhen should not use this to pave the way for his nephew's promotion."

Zhu Guozuo, who was standing aside and had been silent, stood up. Looking at Zhu Youxiao's uncertain expression, the Dongge bachelor continued:
  "But for the sake of caution, I suggest that we wait until Xiong Tingbi's memorial arrives, compare the two, and then discuss and make a decision."

Zhu Youxiao's mood was extremely low. The great victory in Liaodong was ruined by an official from hundreds of households! Now it is basically certain that the Liaodong victory is real, but the authenticity of Wang Qi, the first person in Guangning, needs further verification!
  After a long while, Zhu Youxiao finally said: "The officials from hundreds of households in the small Guangning City commanded thousands of troops and killed more than a thousand Jianzhou tribesmen! If this matter is true, then Wang Qi is really the Ming Dynasty's martial artist, and I take it as his He wrote the imperial letter himself," Zhu Youxiao said, looking at the ministers standing with his highness with a slightly gloomy look, and added:
  "But if the news is untrue, then Wang Huazhen and Wang Qi will be guilty of deceiving the emperor and ignoring the superiors!"

"I obey the order!" Everyone in the palace lowered their heads to receive the order, feeling a little awe-inspiring in their hearts.

At this time, the atmosphere in the palace was a bit awkward and solemn. Everyone didn't know what to say: Congratulations on the victory? Or are you complaining about the favoritism of the governor of Liaodong?
  "Report!"

At this moment, outside the palace gate, Wang Tigan rolled up and down, and appeared at the door with a face full of joy: "Your Majesty, the report of Xiong Tingbi on the Liaodong Strategy has just arrived at the General Administration Department, and my servants have been fetching it for Your Majesty without stopping!"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Zhu Youxiao, who was sitting on the throne with an angry face, immediately straightened up and said impatiently: "Quick, quick, quick, get it for me!"

Ye Xianggao, Han Xu and others also stretched their necks and watched the memorial pass from Wang Tiqian's hand to Wei Zhongxian's hand, and then hurriedly passed it to Emperor Tianqi.

A Minghuang memorial has touched everyone's minds.

Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen have always been at odds with each other. This is something that everyone knows. Emperor Tianqi also knew this very well. Therefore, Xiong Tingbi's memorial is the best example of Wang Huazhen's letter, or it may be the opposite!
  Taking the memorial in his hand, Zhu Youxiao calmed down for a while, then slowly opened it and began to read word by word: "Your Majesty, Xiong Tingbi, the governor of Liaodong, eulogized... In the Battle of Siping, Wang Qi gained a lot. He single-handedly reversed the situation of the war. He first led his troops to defeat Huang Taiji, the Four Belles of Manchuria. Then, when rescuing Siping Fort, he made a surprise attack on Mang Gurtai's Chinese army. As a result, Jianzhou's troops were weakened on the left and right, and gaps appeared on the flanks... The old slave Nurhachi saw what was going on. I couldn't do anything, and finally retreated hastily... This battle is our rare great victory in the more than thirty years of the Ming Dynasty. I, Xiong Tingbi, congratulate your majesty! Congratulations to our Ming Dynasty!"

Ye Xianggao, Han Xu and others looked up and stared at Zhu Youxiao, wanting to know what was written in Xiong Tingbi's memorial. On the other side, Wei Zhongxian stretched his head to see what was written on it.

pat!

On the throne, Zhu Youxiao closed the memorial. His face turned pale at first, then turned red. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and laughed. The laughter was violent, making Zhu Youxiao's chest heave and his face flushed.

　In the history of the Ming Dynasty written by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is said that Tianqi was an illiterate emperor. This statement has been increasingly questioned in recent years. Regardless of whether it is seen from the "Zi Zhong Zhi" or the comments and replies passed down to later generations by emperors and ministers, Emperor Tianqi was at least a middle-class person.

　　Call for Emperor Tianqi! !
