Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

As for Sun Chuanting, he frowned at this moment, it is not scary to be stunned, but if someone uses the matter of the emperor's teacher to make trouble...

Thinking of this, Sun Chuanting's expression became a little more serious, and he took a deep look at that Lengtouqing, and he also decided in his heart that he must definitely investigate the details of this Lengtouqing later.

The situation finally calmed down a bit, and the center of the Great Court Hall must not be chaotic anymore.

There are different thoughts on the tower, but at this time, under the tower, Li Xiu is the same as before the expedition, galloping on horseback, holding the little emperor in his arms, and reviewing the meritorious ministers together.

The captive presenting ceremony and award ceremony were also caught off guard by Li Xiu, Duke of Qin's maverick, and also caught off guard at the end.

As in the past, Li Xiu has always been generous to those who have made meritorious deeds. Although this battle seems to be victorious, only the battle of Shaanxi is far less glorious than the one that swept across the south and north of the desert and approached Liaodong. In fact, this battle in the first year of Jingwu, or in other words, the disputes that spread all over the world, had a far-reaching impact than the great victory in the south and north of the desert.

The offensive and defensive battle of Denglai Town in Shanhaiguan, the chaotic confrontation in the south of the Yangtze River, the confrontation with the Mongolian invasion in the frontier, the suppression of bandits in Shaanxi..., natural disasters continue, economic and political public opinion is in chaos...

Everything has created internal and external troubles that have never been seen in all dynasties...

And although this battle was not completely won, the staged victory can also be said to be a rare glory throughout history!

Going against the general trend of the world, helping the building to fall, and turning the tide from falling, how brilliant such achievements are, the princes of the court are naturally well aware, and there is almost no one in the list of rewards that Li Xiu sent to the court. The dissent was swiftly passed.

Even the household department, which has always been stingy, mobilized more than 20 taels of silver and a large amount of supplies as rewards.

The Ministry of Industry even repaired a piece of houses at the foot of the imperial city that belonged to the Ministry of Industry, and took them out as a reward.

In this way, Li Xiu was quite surprised, but the surprise was the surprise, and Li Xiu naturally accepted it as it was delivered to his door, and rewarded them all.

Canonization, promotion, silver rewards, gifts...

Everything was carried out extremely quickly after this award ceremony.

In addition, after Li Xiu took charge of the army, he established the rule that everyone should be rewarded after the war.

Under Li Xiu's command, the hundreds of thousands of troops all over the Ming Dynasty were also caught in a complete carnival...

3 Twenty chapters are ridiculously illusory!

"Quick, quick, quick, quick for me!"

The Duke of Qin's mansion is already busy at this moment. The people in the mansion come in and out, running around, preparing to welcome the return of the only master of the Duke's mansion.

"Old Wang, the celebration banquet is coming to an end!"

A servant came rushing over, out of breath.

"Did you hear that, hurry up, the master will be back soon, everything is ready!"

Wang Wu hurriedly inspected the front yard, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he immediately walked out of the mansion.

But at this moment, the palace is still noisy.

The banquet was held in the imperial garden of the imperial palace, and all civil and military officials gathered.

It's called the celebration banquet, and the protagonists of the banquet are naturally a group of military generals, as well as the star-like Duke of Qin.

After drinking for three rounds, even Li Xiu couldn't stand it under the toasts of the generals in turn. Although he could easily use his inner energy to get rid of the alcohol, but toasting to wine is based on affection and righteousness. On such an occasion, It is natural for Li Xiu to do such a disappointing thing.

"Come to this cup and I will respect you, Fengxiang is the first to go, it's a good fight!"

Holding the wine glass, Li Xiu patted the shoulder of a general in front of him, drank it down in one gulp, and smiled heartily.

Immediately, he looked around the audience. While the audience was enjoying themselves, in the corner of the banquet, a rather lonely figure of a veteran drinking alone attracted Li Xiu's attention.

Those with armored stomachs are undoubtedly generals, but in this capital, he doesn't know any generals who can appear here, which is a bit strange.

Immediately, Li Xiu seemed to think of something, his expression changed, and immediately, he picked up his wine glass and walked towards the veteran.

"Master, I have met Duke Qin!"

Seeing Li Xiu approaching, Mao Wenlong immediately stood up and saluted.

"You and I are colleagues, the governor doesn't need to be polite!"

Li Xiu picked up Mao Wenlong who was saluting, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he made a sound slowly.

What he said was not wrong, regardless of the title, Mao Wenlong's official position is not much lower than him.

Although the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town is inconspicuous, he was granted the title of Zuo Dudu, the governor of the Five Armies during the Tianqi period. Although it is only honorary, the official rank still exists naturally.

And Denglai has never been able to form a de facto jurisdiction over Dongjiang, not to mention that Mao Wenlong founded Dongjiang alone, and the generals in Dongjiang only listened to Mao Wenlong's orders. There are many reasons for this official position.

After all, he came to be the governor, but he was only from the second rank, and the Zuo Dudu, even if it was only in name, was the first rank!

In fact, after Yuan Keli resigned and before he came to Weili Town, Denglai, which was supposed to have jurisdiction over Dongjiang, was always influenced by Mao Wenlong's anti-customer.

Among them, the official position of Zuo Dudu gave Mao Wenlong a lot of legal advantages.

However, Mao Wenlong's sense of taste has always exceeded Li Xiu's expectations.

From actively cooperating with Denglai to build the town at the beginning, to actively fighting, and now arriving in Beijing to report his duties...

Far-sighted, able to bend and stretch!

In an instant, Li Xiu put this label on Mao Wenlong in his mind.

As for whether Mao Wenlong had any plans, Li Xiu didn't care too much. Under his command, even a dragon had to be coiled.

Zuo Dudu's official position is good, even if it turns from name to fact, it doesn't matter.

"Now that the Korean War has started, the governor has been in Liaodong for a long time, what does Xiang Ke think?"

After some politeness, Li Xiu changed the subject, but Mao Wenlong was caught off guard.

He took a careful look at Li Xiu, his expression was as usual, and he couldn't see any changes. After a moment of silence, Mao Wenlong slowly said: "North Korea is a vassal state of our dynasty, and it has a lot of constraints on Hou Jin..."

Mao Wenlong's answer is obviously very formulaic, and it doesn't hurt or itch. It can be said that listening to Jun's words is like listening to one's words, without any meaning.

Seeing Mao Wenlong's neither humble nor overbearing appearance, Li Xiu couldn't understand Mao Wenlong's thoughts.

As a newcomer, he must be thinking of keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile. Before he can determine the situation and understand the position, it is useless to say anything.

In this way, Li Xiu didn't say any more, and after some politeness, he walked away, while Mao Wenlong was still sitting alone in the corner, quite a feeling of loneliness and loneliness.

When the banquet dissipated, this time Li Xiu did not leave like usual, surrounded by all the generals, instead he walked alone in the empty palace without even his personal guards. Walk towards the outside of the palace.

The fact that the power of the country has been stabilized means that the reforms he initiated have achieved phased victories.

Then, how to take the next step is also something he needs to consider.

On the square, except for the soldiers of the imperial army standing motionless, there was nothing but emptiness.

Under the night sky, the smell of alcohol wafted away. Li Xiu walked slowly, stopping and walking from time to time. His thoughts had already drifted away in the silence and emptiness.

Jiangnan must be the place he must go next.

The full implementation of the reform of the guards must be the next thing to be fully implemented.

With the lessons of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, as well as the Jinliao bandits and the Mongol army who were forced to retreat, the hearts of the people who are about to move around the world have undoubtedly received the greatest deterrence.

In today's world, except for Jiangnan, internal and external troubles have also been temporarily suppressed. Even though Jiangnan is still chaotic, the situation is still under control.

in this way,

The resistance to the reform of the guards has undoubtedly been reduced to the minimum, and the time for full-scale implementation has arrived.

However, it is only the reform of the guard.

Among the reform tracks he planned, the reform of the Weisuo was just the beginning.

The subsequent fiscal and tax reform is the real highlight!

And this is the most difficult to control.

The world is against each other. After this battle, the possibility of it appearing is undoubtedly extremely low.

But soft knives, soft resistance, you don't need to think about it, it will definitely emerge endlessly.

This nation, thousands of years of bureaucratic tactics, has developed to the extreme, and it is not easy to do it.

Just like the previous reorganization of the Shaanxi Guard, due to lack of manpower, a group of civil servants were mobilized, but in the end, the finally stable situation was almost disrupted!

There are policies above and countermeasures below, but this is the most insignificant microcosm of them.

The most important thing is that the public opinion of this era is in the hands of literati.

As the saying goes, the imperial power does not go to the countryside. In the countryside, even in the prefectures and counties, most of them are illiterate working people.

The policy of the imperial court, the geometry of taxes...

Everything, the power of interpretation and execution, is in the hands of literati and gentry.

The masters in those places are the gods of the people everywhere!

What they say is what they say!

As for the imperial court... they have to go through their hands to rule the world.

And the reform, reforms this group of people, and violates the interests of this group of people.

Reform reform, in fact, is changing the roots of Ming Dynasty and digging the grave of Ming Dynasty!

Since ancient times, reformers, not the pinnacle of the dynasty, have rarely succeeded, and this is the reason.

Most of the peak dynasties were in the period of founding the country, and the ruins were waiting to be rebuilt, and the vested interest groups were far from being deeply rooted.

There is no doubt that the resistance to reform will be much greater.

It is also the easiest to reform thoroughly.

By the middle of the dynasty, vested interest groups had been fully formed, and the resistance to reform was undoubtedly much greater.

The reform at this time, even if the reform is successful, is extremely easy to die, and it is difficult to implement it unless it is persisted for a long time.

However, the reforms in the last years of the dynasty, the vested interest groups are deeply rooted, spreading and affecting all aspects of the dynasty.

Vested interest groups, in a sense, are this dynasty, this country.

Reform is tantamount to nonsense.

And he, Li Xiu, is guarding this mess now, what an idiot!

Sometimes, Li Xiu felt that he was really ridiculous.

The two things he was after seemed to be so illusory!

The illusory eternal name...the illusory dream of longevity...

As long as he is more realistic, the road can immediately change from a rough area, a dangerous area, or even a dead end, to a road that leads to the sky, unimpeded!

The night sky was dazzling, Li Xiu stood with his hands behind his back, looked up at the starry sky of the universe, and sighed speechlessly...

Chapter 321 Marry a wife and have children

"Welcome Master back home!"

The night was silent, and the curfew in the capital had come, but outside Duke Qin's mansion, there was an uproar of people, and all the guards and servants stood there, shouting at the same time.

The etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty was strict, and although there were no etiquette regulations, some customs were formed naturally.

After the congratulations, the armor is removed.

According to the custom, when returning from the expedition, the relatives in the family should personally unload the stomach for the returnee to show their respect.

It's just that, with the evolution of the noble and the humble, this custom, except for the upper class dignitaries, ordinary soldiers are also uncomfortable with this kind of treatment.

However, in recent years, with the rise of the power of martial arts, the situation of being noble and inferior to martial arts has been broken. This custom has also begun to become common in the land of Jingji.

Although Li Xiu has always disliked politeness, Li Xiu is very willing to set an example for this kind of politeness to improve the status of a soldier.

It's just that setting an example belongs to an example, but whether it was the triumphant return of the Marquis of Zhenbei back then, or the triumphant return this time, the Duke of Qin's mansion would always quarrel for a while because of this.

Everyone knows that Qin Gong has not yet married, and there is not even a concubine in his family, and he has no relatives alive, let alone married.

Under such circumstances, in order to set an example, one can only choose the taller ones from the shorter ones.

And this short man naturally fell on the hundreds of maids in Duke Qin's mansion. After all, most of these maids are named as maids, and in reality they are considered relatives.

Although it does not conform to the etiquette of the current environment, how could Li Xiu care about these things, and he ordered the matter with a casual remark.

But Li Xiu never imagined that it would be a great temptation for these maids to remove their armor, which is equivalent to a concubine's room.

Since ancient times, the harem has been full of constant battles, and the backyard of Duke Qin's mansion is not inferior to the emperor's harem at all.

There are hundreds of maids in the mansion, and there are nearly a hundred of them who have been favored by Li Xiu. They all enjoy superhuman treatment in the mansion.

Who among these people is looking at the hostess's seat eagerly!

This lady, sitting on it, is not just the mistress of a mansion!

Mrs. Qin, in today's world, even the empress dowager in the deep palace is probably not as honorable as this seat.
