Chapter 95 I don't play anymore
"Is there anything wrong with asking me to enter the palace?" Zhou Shixiong thought of the troops he had worked hard to pull up were taken away, so he naturally fell into the fantasy of persecution syndrome, and of course he had no good ideas about the people involved.
"Sir, today I want to discuss your reward, and of course the hero will be present." Fang Zhenghua was chatting with Zhou Shixiong while asking someone to change clothes and wash up. After a busy work, Zhou Shixiong put on a marquis costume and escorted nearly a hundred guards to escort the horse into the palace.
When he arrived at Wuying Hall, the hall was filled with civil and military ministers. When Zhou Shixiong signed up to enter the hall, he enjoyed a glory that was watched by everyone. "My minister Zhou Shixiong paid homage to the emperor." Zhou Shixiong was in a bad mood and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen casually, and then stood at the last position of the military officers.
"Everyone is clear about Zhou Aiqing's achievements, so what suggestions should I give to the Ministry of War?" Zhou Shixiong's former position was under the imperial guards, and was nominally under the jurisdiction of the emperor. In fact, the Governor's Office of the Five Army, which replaced the emperor to manage the imperial guards, had only command power, and promotions were still required to go through the Ministry of War. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen was the first to ask Shen Yongmao, the Minister of War.
Last night, Zhou Shixiong left listlessly. Emperor Chongzhen did not rest immediately, but instead asked Sun Chengzong to discuss how to resettle Zhou Shixiong. Emperor Chongzhen did not want Zhou Shixiong to continue leading troops. There are two reasons. One is that Zhou Shixiong likes to take risks and often acts of risking himself. The second reason is that Zhou Shixiong does not obey the command and acts dictatorially and ignores his fate.
Zhou Shixiong's victory several times seemed very awesome, but he never discussed with the temporary command center every time he acted. If it weren't for the halo of victory that enveloped him, he would have been impeached for a long time. Emperor Chongzhen's decision was to protect Zhou Shixiong and did not want him to be caught. Sun Chengzong also wanted to protect this disciple who was not disclosed. Emperor Chongzhen showed his slightest expression, and Sun Chengzong gave a suggestion to let Emperor Chongzhen transfer Zhou Shixiong into the staff of the temporary command center and be a new generation of Zhao Kuo who talked about it on paper.
The two set aside. Before the court meeting today, Sun Chengzong and Shen Yongmao communicated with each other. When Shen Yongmao heard the emperor's name and asked him to speak, he knew that it was time for him to perform. "Long live, I think the position of left governor of the Wujun Governor's Office is Lord Zhou." The Five Army Governor's Office mentioned just now was originally named the Grand Governor's Office. Zhu Yuanzhang, who disliked the solemn general, abolished the title of Grand Governor's Office and divided the power of the Grand Governor's Office into two parts, and set left and right governors in charge of border troops and guards. This avoided the possibility of Grand Governor's command of the world.
The rule set at that time was that the left and right governors must be the Duke of Wuxun. Zhang Weixian, the first nobleman, is the right governor of the Five Army Governor's Office. The left governor was once Qi Jiguang's last official position, and has been unavailable since Qi Jiguang's death. Now Shen Yongmao proposes to use this position to reward Zhou Shixiong's merits, which is a bit too honest.
First of all, Zhou Shixiong was just a new marquis. Although his contributions were made by real people, he was still far inferior to Qi Jiguang. At the age of Zhou Shixiong, Zhou Shixiong was less than 30 years old. If he was granted the position of left governor of the Five Army Governor's Office, it would be like to become the highest official of the Ming general. What should he do if he has some contributions in the future? The two favorite things that literati like to use are the masters and the unlimited meritorious ones can kill him. Does Shen Yongmao want to harm Zhou Shixiong?
As soon as Shen Yongmao finished speaking, Wang Yongguang, the Minister of Personnel, stood up, "Long live the letter, Zhennan Hou has made contributions, but he has not yet made a decision, I am afraid that he will not be able to take on this important task. I think this is inappropriate." Wang Yongguang said something about Zhou Shixiong's age. Although it was a bit unreasonable, since it was the Minister, some people would agree with it. Many civil officials nodded and agreed, but they just didn't stand up and shouted.
"Long live my life, I agree with Lord Wang's statement that Zhennan Hou is still young and is indeed not suitable for the position of left governor. I suggest that Zhennan Hou be appointed as the governor of Guangxi, and it is not too late to be trained in the local area for several years." The new chief assistant Li Biao expressed his opinion. His meaning was very simple, and it was most appropriate to send Zhou Shixiong back to his hometown.
Sun Chengzong smiled bitterly. He was a little late to answer Shen Yongmao's words, but he didn't expect the scene to get out of control. "Long live the proclamation, Zhennan Hou has outstanding military strategy. I suggest that Zhennan Hou be appointed as the senator of the temporary command center and be in charge of the General Staff." Sun Chengzong's proposal had been discussed with Emperor Chongzhen long ago. He did not intend to say it so early, and wanted to let the civil servants suppress it first. Finally, he proposed it to let Zhou Shixiong feel the kindness of Sun Chengzong and Emperor Chongzhen.
Unfortunately, the civil servant group seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. Although it was intended to suppress it, the recommended official position was a member of the party. If you seriously consider the power, the Governor of Guangxi is no worse than the left governor.
Sun Chengzong's suggestion made the Wuying Palace lively. Although the military generals and nobles could not accept that Zhou Shixiong, a young young man, was the throne of the first general, the temporary officials of the temporary organization were too unreliable. Regardless of whether it was to help Zhou Shixiong fight for rights or not, at least the military officer system could not be suppressed so seriously. Zhang Weixian came out to report, "Your Majesty, I think that Zhennan Hou should take charge of the Beijing camp and will not disappoint the qualifications of famous generals."
Zhang Weixian's statement is very interesting. Actually taking over the Beijing camp is equivalent to letting Zhou Shixiong be the commander-in-chief of the Beijing Military Region. His power has increased greatly without being promoted. However, it is very difficult to actually take over the Beijing camp. For example, Sun Chengzong, Zhang Qingzhen, Man Gui, etc., who also have the title of governor of the Beijing camp, these are still known by Zhou Shixiong. There must be some leaders who do not know. They all have the right to interfere in the affairs of the Beijing camp. It is difficult to get back all the power from them in one word!
Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused. Didn’t he agree to how to act last night? Why did he go out of tune as soon as the gong was opened, and he ran farther and farther? The chief civil and military officials expressed their opinions. The officials looked at Emperor Chongzhen waiting for his verdict. Emperor Chongzhen wanted to say it, but I don’t know what to do! He looked at the ministers under the imperial ranks, glanced at Zhou Shixiong who was standing near the gate, and smiled.
"Zhou Aiqing, what do you think?" Emperor Chongzhen actually threw the choice to Zhou Shixiong, as if he could choose any one.
Zhou Shixiong stood at the gate in a daze. He had made up his mind to ignore anything last night. Anyway, as long as he would not hurt his life, everything had nothing to do with him. So so many officials in the hall were making noises about his promotion, and Zhou Shixiong was wandering around without paying attention. It was not until everyone focused their attention on him again because of Emperor Chongzhen's words that Zhou Shixiong woke up.
"I heard from the emperor that I am in poor health and need to be recuperated. I want to go back to Guangxi as soon as possible. I hope the emperor will approve it." Zhou Shixiong did not pay attention to what Emperor Chongzhen said, and directly recited the lines he had thought out, and he wanted to go home.
"Ah!" The word "Ah!" flew out from the mouths of civil and military officials in the hall almost at the same time, forming a huge exclamation mark. Zhou Shixiong actually wanted to leave, how could he want to leave!
"Why did you say this?" Emperor Chongzhen would not believe the excuse of Zhou Shixiong's poor health. With his magical medical skills, he would definitely cure himself unless he was killed on the spot. This is Emperor Chongzhen's evaluation of Zhou Shixiong's medical skills. It is very close to the facts.
"I grew up in Guangxi since I was young, and my body was not adapted to the cold in the north. A few days ago, I slept in the open and let the cold air enter my body, but I never noticed it. Now I urgently need to go back to the warm place to rest. Please allow the emperor to approve it." Anyway, he could simulate any disease, and even if Emperor Chongzhen asked Doctor Zhu to come and diagnose Zhou Shixiong on the spot, he was not afraid, so he made up the lies with confidence.
The word typhoid fever is the core enemy of ancient Chinese medicine, otherwise no one would have written a book on the Treatise on Febrile Disease and became a medical saint. Zhou Shixiong was not convinced by the local conditions, and the mysterious cold air entered his body, fooling Emperor Chongzhen. "Tu Wenfu, took Zhou Aiqing to the Imperial Hospital with a chariot and asked Doctor Zhu to treat Zhou Aiqing himself." Emperor Chongzhen was very nervous and even gave up his car. Zhou Shixiong was not polite, and sat on the chariot carried by more than ten people and headed straight to the Imperial Hospital.
The pig's feet left, and everyone was not in the mood to discuss the issue of rewards. At least Emperor Chongzhen was not in the mood. He thought for a while and said, "When the Imperial Doctor Zhu checked Zhou Aiqing before he would do this." Emperor Chongzhen really cared for Zhou Shixiong too much, and the rewards actually had to consider the physical condition of the person who was awarded.
"Long live the report, the cavalry camp has sent an urgent report." Emperor Chongzhen was about to announce his retirement, but the eunuch on duty outside the hall reported loudly.
"Send it in." Wang Chengen responded loudly without waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to hint.
All civil and military officials knew that Jiannu did not attack Chaoyang Gate today, and did not know what Mangui's urgent report was. He looked at Emperor Chongzhen with curiosity. After reading the urgent report, Emperor Chongzhen threw the memorial and threw the memorial down the imperial stairs. "I will not let any Jiannu envoys enter the city, and those who violate it will be killed!"
It turned out that Jiannu sent an envoy to the cavalry camp to convey Huang Taiji's intention to negotiate peace. Man Gui did not dare to learn from Yuan Chonghuan's private peace talks, so he quickly sent Huang Taiji's handwritten letter to the capital. Emperor Chongzhen only read Man Gui's report and refused without even opening Huang Taiji's letter. He was really courageous and imposing.
Emperor Chongzhen was angry and remembered that Zhou Shixiong asked him to strengthen the firearms of the cavalry last night, and ordered Sun Chengzong to send the Shenji Camp into the Chaoyang Gate Camp to enhance the power of the cavalry camp.
Zhou Shixiong came to the Imperial Hospital and chatted with Doctor Zhu for a few words. He told Doctor Zhu about the fabricated condition and asked Doctor Zhu to carefully examine it. The nanorobot's pathogenic ability is invincible in the world, and it is difficult for Doctor Zhu to be fooled. After a long time of struggle, Doctor Zhu wrote down the observed symptoms and handed them to Tu Wenfu. Tu Wenfu asked Doctor Zhu in a low voice, "Is Zhou Hou really sick?"
Doctor Zhu nodded and frowned and said, "The cold air enters the body and the kidney water is stagnant. If you don't find a place to regulate it as soon as possible, it will be difficult to control the cold air." Doctor Zhu was originally a very capable imperial physician, but he was too superstitious about Zhou Shixiong. After Zhou Shixiong's suggestion, and the nanorobot did some tricks, Doctor Zhu was already very sure that Zhou Shixiong's diagnosis was correct, so he wrote the pulse case without hesitation, and confirmed that Zhou Shixiong's condition was very serious and needed to be recuperated.
