Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Uncle Huang, my nephew wants to recommend Mr. Peng to be an official in Beijing, so as to share his worries with him."

"I also have this intention. If such a capable official can be at the top of the court, it will be more helpful."

"Emperor Uncle Shengming" Defang has always cherished talents, and she was very happy to see Taizong agreeing to transfer Peng Tianxian to Beijing.

"Nephew, I read in your booklet that the army that rushed to the rescue of Meizhou belongs to your fief. I already know the reason, and I will issue a decree tomorrow to send special envoys to reward these soldiers."

"My nephew, thank you for your kindness." Defang said, "In this battle of Meizhou, Li Jian, the Zhizhou, also made great contributions. Nearly 2 rebels besieged Meizhou. He led his troops to defend the city for more than a month. One meal a day barely satisfies the hunger, but the rebel army has not been allowed to step into the city, and it is because of Master Li's perseverance that the minister and nephew have time to mobilize troops to rescue the siege."

"Well, Li Jian has made great achievements in defending the city, and I will reward him myself."

Defang suddenly thought of another person, "Uncle Emperor, my nephew wants to ask for credit for someone else."

"who?"

"Wei Jingtian, head of the Dongyuan Escort Bureau."

"Wei Jingtian, um, I know this person. An official once wrote a letter about him. He has contributed a lot to the court. This time, the emperor's nephew's booklet also mentioned that he escorted official silver and food for the court. "

"Uncle, nephew and nephew have met Wei Jingtian on several occasions. This person is loyal to the country and treats people with sincerity. This time, it is a great achievement to escort the official's money, food and grass for the imperial court regardless of personal interests and life and death."

"Does he know the identity of your nephew?"

"The nephew did not reveal his identity to him, but when he was in Jinzhou, the nephew used his reputation in the local area to inquire about a lot of news, and then received the imperial uncle's secret order to transfer to Meizhou. The nephew was afraid that the grain and grass would become a rebellion. The goal, so Peng Tianxian arranged for Wei Jingtian to secretly transport the grain and grass to Meizhou under the name of the escort, and then let him return to the capital first, and he has never known the identity of his nephew to this day."
