Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 130

All of a sudden, he became such a big official, and he was still a Beijing official, a Beijing official of the troops defending the capital. The first thing Liu Zhaoji and Jiangyin Sangong did when they entered Beijing was of course to thank the emperor face to face.

Of course Zhu Yousong was happy to meet them. Jiangyin Sangong, a national hero, a martyr who fought against the Qing Dynasty, is the backbone of the Chinese nation. Who would not respect such people?In history, Sangong led 24 righteous people to confront 81 elite soldiers and generals of the Tartars. He held on to the isolated city for [-] days. Extremely, no one surrendered after the city was broken, and all sacrificed heroically. Even the Qing Tartars could not stand in awe. Such a tragic battle, such a brilliant record, is unique in all ages.

Such an outstanding and righteous man, if Zhu Yousong didn't only take the heavy responsibility, it would be a waste of everything.

Moreover, Zhu Yousong's transfer of them to important positions in the Beijing Camp this time was not only due to their historical fame.Liu Zhaoji is well versed in military tactics, and the three masters are good at defending. This is recognized in history. Zhu Yousong wants people to make the best use of their talents. In the short term, he wants to deal with the other two warlords. In the long run, he wants to deal with the Qing Tartars , For the country and country of Ming Dynasty.

The meeting place for the four heroes was still at the West Terrace of the Hall of Martial Arts. Along with San Gong, the new commander of the Imperial Battalion, Liu Zhaoji, was also begging to see the holy driver. , Zhu Yousong's heart was lifted, it's so majestic!

The four generals are all about 40 years old, and they are about the same height and size. The first one on the left is Liu Zhaoji, wearing a bright silver armor and a light brown windbreaker. Yan Yingyuan is next to Liu Zhaoji, with a bronze helmet on his head, a bronze armor and a soap robe. He is slightly taller than the other three, with a plump and tall torso, a red complexion, slender eyebrows and long eyes, and three long locks. Ran, at first glance, there is a bit of Guan Yunchang's bearing, and the two next to him are wearing iron helmets and armor, covered with crimson clothes, and they are also very bearing, one has a complexion like three autumns and an ancient moon, it is Chen Mingyu, and the other has a pale yellow complexion , square face, straight nose and wide mouth, is Feng Houdun.

These four generals were not angry but prestige, and came to Zhu Yousong, wanting to bow down to the emperor and ministers to see the big ceremony. Zhu Yousong thought of their prestige and amnesty as a treasure, so he hurriedly said: "Xitai is not a court hall, so there is no need for the four lovers." Thank you."

The four generals were unavoidably nervous when they saw the driver for the first time, and they didn't dare to look directly at Longyan, but from the corner of their eyes, they noticed that sitting on the dragon chair a few steps away was a proud son of heaven who had just enthroned but made a name for himself.

Especially the three princes of Jiangyin, the emperor is at most a supreme concept in their minds. It is unthinkable to face and worship the emperor with their ranks. Now the emperor is in front of their eyes. For a few nights, the emperor said a word to avoid these red tapes, and the four generals felt hot, thinking that his majesty was comparable to Yao and Shun, kneeling on the ground in a well-behaved manner, with his head slightly lowered, his eyes fixed, and his face solemn, begging to receive the holy teachings.

It was also the first time for Zhu Yousong to see them. If someone hadn't reported it in advance, and the four generals had reported their families, Zhu Yousong would really be wrong for them.

Zhu Yousong's gaze first settled on Liu Zhaoji, and said softly, "Liu Aiqing."

"My humble minister is here." Liu Zhaoji hurriedly kowtowed again in acknowledgment.

"I have heard that Aiqing is brave and good at fighting, and has a good command of the army. I will entrust you with a total of 600 troops in the imperial battalion. You will be promoted to the commander-in-chief of the imperial battalion. The rank of military officer of the second rank. This team has just been established and comes from different establishments. Although all of them are carefully selected, it is inevitable that they are uneven. You have to train me an elite division that can fight tough battles , time is pressing, and you must not slack off."

Liu Zhaoji was overwhelmed by flattery, his blood boiled, don't look at him in Yangzhou earlier, Zhu Yousong's successive feats, his ears have already been filled, especially Yujia's personal conquest, Yizhen and Sizhou's two victories, Fengyang City is terrified to judge the army , One sword hits the capital, as a general, he once worshiped like a god, and while admiring him, he sighed in his heart, with such an emperor, there is still hope for Daming!
Now that the emperor has placed such a heavy responsibility on him, he was moved to kowtow, "Being so loved by His Majesty, I can only repay the king's kindness by bowing down and serving the power of ten thousand deaths."

Zhu Yousong nodded, and then looked at the Jiangyin Sangong, "I have heard of the names of the three lovers for a long time. One term of office, benefiting one party, is indeed a model for our officials of the Ming Dynasty, and I am very relieved. I made an exception and promoted three to be the admiral of the Beijing camp, the minister of the Beijing camp, and the master of the Beijing camp."

To be praised directly by the emperor, from a jobless county official to a second-rank and third-rank official, the three righteous men are even more grateful. Even the provincial officials may not know what they did, how would the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Know?It seems that the current emperor is different from the emperors of previous dynasties. He is sympathetic to his subjects and discerns every detail. Recently, there are folk rumors that his majesty is an emperor through the ages. If there is such an enlightened master in this life, there will be no regrets in death!

The three men were moved and kowtowed one after another, the blood in their bodies was like a river, and the words from the bottom of their hearts seemed to be surging, but it was difficult to express a word at this time.

Zhu Yousong continued: "The [-] Beijing battalion soldiers will be handed over to the three love ministers. The Beijing camp soldiers are responsible for guarding the important areas of the capital. Naturally, the supplies and equipment such as food, soldiers, horses, and equipment are first-class. The three love ministers Don't let me down."

Yan Yingyuan and the other three kowtowed their heads, "I don't dare, I will repay Your Majesty Long's kindness with all my heart and soul."

After leaving the palace, Liu Zhaoji and Jiangyin Sangong began to organize the training of soldiers and horses as soon as they took office, formulated a training plan, and chose a training location. Driven by the imperial and Beijing soldiers, the Caojiang Navy also set off a wave of training.

Zhu You still insisted on practicing sword practice every day, such as practicing qi and dancing with kosher grass and wood, so that the capital was busy. From the emperor to the ministers, there was a busy scene. The emperor was busy with government affairs, busy practicing kung fu, and the generals were busy with Military training, civil servants are busy preparing for the upcoming scientific examination.

Qian Qianyi, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, has been sitting on pins and needles for the past two days, because from the bottom of his heart, he doesn't want to resign at all. Although he didn't get a cabinet minister or something, he has a steelyard in his heart, and the position of Minister of Rites is definitely not small. Being in the first rank, he will have the best chance to enter the main cabinet in the future, so how could Qian Qianyi resign with such a high position?
