Nanming Engineer

Chapter 270
Hearing the sound, Wang Huan was overjoyed, with a weird expression of disapproval, and said: "The governor is a faction of sitting on the fence.

Wang Yingxiong ignored the sarcasm in Wang Huan's sentence, and his old face didn't blush, and he replied leisurely: "That's right, this officialdom is like a battlefield, standing on the side of the candidate, if you don't pay attention, you will be smashed to pieces. Once the backer falls, you will die." I don’t know how I died, so in terms of longevity, I have to be like this old man, no one will be offended, burn paper when I meet gods, offer incense when I meet Buddhas, and be an official of peace in peace and stability, enjoying the glory of the world, wouldn’t it be beautiful.”

Wang Huan doesn't like to see such shameless remarks. The so-called *** is Wang Yingxiong, who speaks eloquently without shame, as if everything in the world is omnipotent. He really wants him to do something serious, but he is a scholar. Wishing to do great things can't be done, and it's useless.

Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, the noise in the venue fell silent. All the officials had drained their glasses and were looking at Qu Shichen eagerly, waiting for what he would say next.

Qu Shishi's face was flushed, and he was obviously in a good mood. With the effect of alcohol, he became more and more energetic. He put down his glass, waited for the audience to completely calm down, coughed and said loudly again: "This is the second The happy event is that my Royal Highness Wenyuange, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Governor of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, Wang Yingxiong Wang, have been ordered to govern the military affairs of the three provinces. After years of hard work and hard work, I finally lived up to the emperor's trust and made a big deal in the west. Your Excellencies , Mr. Wang has received frequent success reports a month ago. Zhang Ni, the great thief of the country, has already taken the lead. Banquet, to celebrate Lord Wang's success and cleanse the dust, that's what the title means."

Qu Shishu said something and deliberately stayed for a few seconds to leave time for the officials to express their admiration and cheers. Therefore, when he said this, there were several bursts of applause and countless pairs of envious or jealous eyes. , intertwined into a network in the air, and concentrated on Wang Yingxiong.

Wang Yingxiong straightened his back and looked dignified. He stroked his three-foot-long beard on his chin with one hand and reported the case with the other. His face was serious and his eyes were straight, as if he was reserved and not arrogant. He could not help but nod his head gently in front of everyone's eyes, as if he was a rude man. What he said was a great contribution, but he really did it.

Li Dingguo and Liu Yun in the corner looked stunned, and couldn't believe their ears. Liu Yun quietly stretched out his head and whispered to Li Dingguo: "General, this old man Wang is really not shy. He really dares to admit that he is an official in the court. Is this all the case?”

Li Dingguo woke up from the shock, looked at the position where Wang Huan was sitting, and said in a low voice convinced: "Shut up, look at your lord, sit still, you haven't messed up in the slightest, how calm you are. I think your lord is a hero." , how can he care about these bureaucrats, let him talk about the hype, the fake can't be true, and the real can't be fake either. Gansu is still dominated by grown-ups, so let them play it."

Hearing the sound, Liu Yun looked at Wang Huan, and found that he was sitting on the embroidered bed, motionless and expressionless, standing behind Wang Yingxiong like a shadow. He couldn't help feeling admiration, and sighed: "Your Excellency's skill in nourishing Qi is really different from ordinary people."

The two were whispering on one side, while Wang Huan on the other side was watching coldly.

Although he was a little angry in his heart, Qu Shishu did not mention the word Wang Huan at all in his words. The credit for destroying Daxi and defeating Hauge's army shined brightly on Wang Yingxiong in one sentence. He seemed to have nothing to do with Wang Huan. , but he came through time and looked down upon the false reputation. Anyway, he had real power in his hands, so there was no harm in taking up the position of King Ying Xiong.

Emperor Yongli also had a smile on his face, nodded to Wang Yingxiong and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Scholar Wang. You deserve the most credit for this great victory."

However, Wang Yingxiong knew how to measure and understood what was going on, so after enjoying the eyes of the officials, Shi Shiran stood up, bowed in the direction of Emperor Yongli, and said: "Thank you for your praise, I am ashamed of you! It is the duty of the courtiers to eat the king's salary and be loyal to the king. For this credit, the humble minister dare not claim it at all. The humble minister thinks that the Northwest can be flattened by the king's teacher. Firstly, it is the emperor's majesty, and the soldiers under his command feel the emperor Holy Grace, the three armies put down their lives and moved forward with all their strength, and they were able to put down the Tartars in one go. This is all due to the emperor, how dare the officials live there?"

After hearing this, Emperor Yongli was overjoyed and smiled from ear to ear. He shook his hand and said with a smile: "Master Wang is too modest. Scholar Wang is too modest."

A group of ministers below also echoed and shouted: "Yes, yes, Mr. Wang is humble!"

Everyone secretly cursed in their hearts, this Scholar Wang is so good at talking, he behaves well even when he gets an advantage, he fawns over him perfectly, and makes Long Yan happy, he is indeed a veteran!
Wang Yingxiong was very excited when he received Yongli's praise, his face was turning red and purple, his mouth was turning, and he said impassionedly: "Then, although the humble minister knows about military affairs, he is a civil servant. General Wang, without this loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, although I have the heart to serve the country, I am unable to return to the land, and I am in vain. Therefore, I think that Wang Huan, the commander-in-chief under his command, is sturdy and invincible in this battle, wise and brave, He did not hesitate to risk himself many times, entered the enemy's territory alone, defeated the many with the few, and killed many enemy chieftains, he deserves the first place!"

Emperor Yongli was very interested after hearing this. He couldn't help but lean forward, raised his head and asked happily: "Oh? There is such a fierce general, Wang Aiqing, where is this person now?"

Wang Yingxiong hurriedly waved to Wang Huan to stand up, and said with his fingers: "When the minister comes to Beijing this time, he will be escorted by Wang Huan, so Wang Huan is also here at this moment."

Yongli was overjoyed and anxiously said: "Okay! Let him stand up quickly, let me see, who is my fierce general?"

Then Wang Huan stood up abruptly, took a step forward, and stood in the empty field. According to the etiquette, he did not dare to raise his head to face Yongli, and bowed his head and knelt down and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Wang Huan, kowtow to my emperor!"

Yongli on the high platform was impatient, and he preached repeatedly: "Excuse me, excuse me, Aiqing is a meritorious minister, get up quickly, and let me have a look."

Wang Huan stood tall and straight in front of everyone in the empty field, with his hands drooping, his head held high, and he calmly looked up at Yongli. His courage was very natural. He was a young man in a white shirt, and he was full of heroic spirit. He was really arrogant. Wufu, a majestic man.

Yong Li was almost stunned, watching Wang Huan speechless for a long time. After staying for a long time, he asked openly: "Um..., how old is Aiqing this year?"

Wang Huan bowed his hands and said: "Report to the emperor, Wang Huan is 19 years old this year."

19 years old?Suddenly there was a buzz in the field, and countless people were whispering and gasping. The 19-year-old general soldier was unheard of since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Who is this Wang Huan? Is he really capable of reaching heaven?
Yongli was also surprised. When he first saw Wang Huan's face, he was very young. When he asked, he was so young that he was even more surprised. While shocked, he couldn't help but glance in Wang Yingxiong's direction.

Wang Yingxiong was an old man, so he didn't know the meaning of this glance. He quickly stood up and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, although Wang Huan is young, he is a rare genius. He once studied under a great sage and has achieved great success. He has a strategic mind, and he worships Qin Liangyu, the former Sichuan military commander, as his adoptive mother. He has learned the essence of the white pole soldiers in central Sichuan, so he can lead the army in hundreds of battles and be invincible."

After he explained it this way, everyone in the audience was relieved of their doubts. It turned out that he was Qin Liangyu's adoptive son, so the explanation made sense. The bravery of a man is admired by the whole world. It is not very surprising that his adopted son can stand out from the crowd at such a young age.

Emperor Yongli also nodded, and said with a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be Qin Aiqing's adopted son. I think that Qin Aiqing served as king in the capital and fought in Liaodong. I was still in Guangxi, and I heard rumors about her. It is less than two decades old and ranks high in the army. I think he has real talents and learning, well, I am very happy!"

He praised: "Wang Aiqing is young, but she has been taught by a famous teacher. It is not easy to use her whole body to serve me and make such great achievements. I am blessed, Wang Xueshi, you know people and know the way, and you are also very good. "

Wang Yingxiong quickly knelt down, kowtowed gratefully and said: "I dare not be a minister, but I will be loyal to the emperor with my blood!"

After knocking on his head three times, he suddenly realized that Wang Huan was still standing dumbly, not moving. He was shocked and frightened, so he quickly secretly pulled his trouser legs, and Wang Huan knelt down soon after.

Emperor Yongli sighed: "In ancient times, there was Gan Luo who was 12 years old as Prime Minister, and Huo Qubing who was 17 years old and defeated the enemy alone. If there are more courtiers like Wang Xueshi and Wang Huan, why worry about the loss of the country?"

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military ministers who were full of seats could no longer sit still. They all left the table and knelt down. They all knelt on the ground and said in unison: "I am incompetent, I am waiting for death!"

Emperor Yongli sighed, and waved his hand weakly: "Forget it, I'm just talking casually, all loves, take your seats."

When the ministers on the ground got up, one person stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Wang Huan is a young man who is unparalleled in the world. I congratulate the Emperor for being a good general. Sima Qian said: "If you don't reward for your meritorious service, there will be no such pain in the ages." Wang Xueshi He and Wang Huan will be rewarded for their great achievements as usual, and I also ask the emperor to grant titles and promotions to the meritorious ministers to reassure the troops."

Wang Huan felt awe in his heart, what he said was so good, he struck while the iron was hot, and the timing was right, so he turned to the person who spoke out of the corner of his eye, to see who was so kind and spoke for him.

It turned out that the person who spoke was Ma Jixiang. This deceitful minister spoke with a righteous face and seemed to be extremely upright. People who knew him almost thought that he had changed his gender.

However, after Wang Huan thought for a moment, he immediately understood that this guy said this, and it did not cost his family money or food, but he could make a good relationship between Wang Yingxiong and Wang Huan. He can also win over others for his own use. Such things that benefit others and himself are just the reflection of Ma Jixiang's nature, who is good at franchise and has a flexible mind.

Sure enough, Ma Jixiang's words hit the key point of Emperor Yongli. The emperor's mind was already concerned about gains and losses. On the one hand, he had to rely on Li Chengdong's military strength, and on the other hand, he was afraid that Li Chengdong would not be able to lose his life. , is always good, at least it can contain Li Chengdong.

So Yongli said happily: "Ma Aiqing is right, merit should be rewarded. This is the right principle. Qu Aiqing, tell me, how should the two kings be rewarded?"

Qu Shigui is the head shop, and he is also in charge of the official secretary, so naturally you should ask him this question.

Qu Shishu stood up after hearing the sound, cleared his throat, bowed to Emperor Yongli first, and then spoke.
