Chapter 472: Punching the sky

The flags were roaring, and Zhao Ji was in a particularly good mood today. He said a lot of words, and each sentence revealed a message, which made the captains in the audience feel hope and pride.

The emperor's disciple, the first personal army under the Golden Palace, has far surpassed the imperial guards in front of the palace; His Majesty the Emperor personally gave a lecture and gave a pension. From this point alone, it is enough to prove that it is different from other imperial guards.

Zhao Ji was tired of speaking, and looked at Chen Ao with unfulfilled intentions and said, "Chen Ao, say it."

Chen Ao only said one sentence: "Your Majesty is invited to personally issue silver medals to all the lieutenants. The silver medal represents the identity of the emperor's personal teacher and the disciple of the emperor. Your Majesty personally issues it to show the glory of the lieutenants."

Zhao Ji was stunned and gave it to him personally...

Seeing the black man underneath, Zhao Ji's face looked a little ugly. Then, an excited cheer burst out from the queue: "Long live!"

The emperor personally wore a silver medal. Even military generals who had made great achievements in this way had never been treated like this. The lieutenants were slightly stunned and then reacted, and then burst into cheers, chests fluctuated violently, and a few hot and scorching light flashed in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Ji laughed again and said with great interest: "Okay, let me and Shen Siye wear seals for everyone."

Such glory is that even the instructors and doctors on the side are also popular, and they only regret that they cannot be born decades later and stand in the queue.

Then, Xuezheng took out a roster and began to read out the name of the lieutenant. The lieutenant who was called immediately turned his head and walked up to the platform step by step with heavy breathing. He stood up in front of Zhao Ji and Shen Ao, and called His Majesty or Lord Si Ye.

The eunuchs brought silver seals one by one, and Zhao Ji and Shen Ao personally tied them to their chests. After the captain gave the silver seal, he roared loudly again: "Long live!"

The lieutenants left the line and returned to the team like a lantern. The silver seals worn on their chests shone brightly in the sun, and their chests were even more straight.

But... Chen Ao was secretly complaining in his heart, and always felt that the face of the captain who walked up to him and accepted the title was always a little bad. These snobs all wanted to walk to Zhao Ji, but instead seemed to be redundant.

Lord Shen didn't get a good look, so his face naturally didn't look good anymore. It took an hour for the seal ceremony to end. Zhao Ji waved his hand tiredly: "It's all gone."

The lieutenants shouted, "Affect the order." But they still stood still.

Zhao Ji smiled at them and said, "It's getting late, I'm going back to the palace. After a while, I'll take the time to visit again." After that, he walked off the school platform, Chen Ao immediately followed him and sent him to the entrance of the school. Zhao Ji turned around and smiled at Chen Ao and said, "Good job!"

Chen Ao said seriously: "I am too arrogant just now. Before I ask your Majesty for permission, I rashly asked Your Majesty to grant the silver medal..."

Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "I know, you are trying to cultivate the loyalty of the lieutenants to me. Do you see the eyes of those lieutenants looking at me?"

"I saw it, I dare not say anything else, but one thing is certain. As long as His Majesty opens a golden mouth, they will not blink even if they ask them to go up to the mountain of swords and sea of ​​fire."

Zhao Ji held the imperial carriage with his hand and said with a heavy emphasis: "Yes, others cannot believe it. How can I not believe the people you have trained by Chen Ao? I don't want them to die. One day, I want them to make meritorious. My Song Dynasty has been weak for so long, and it's time to be a hero." After that, he smiled and said: "Gao Qiu is not bad. His Ma Junshi won many battles on the North Road of Jingji. He will defeat the enemy soon. At that time, I will reward both the Martial Arts School and the Ma Junshi."

Chen Ao's eyes flashed, and he felt a little guilty in his heart. He then took a breath and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, is there another good news recently?"

Zhao Ji smiled and said, "There will be one in three or five days. Gao Qiu played Cuju so well. I didn't expect that he was a brave general. Okay, I finally didn't recommend him in vain. Chen Ao, don't just focus on the martial arts school. Now the north road of Jingji is in chaos, and Xixia also needs to comfort him. Although I am not afraid of them, there are grand and big and small husbands and Tong Guan, they can't take advantage, but it's a troublesome time, so it's always good to cause less trouble."

Chen Aohe nodded: "I understand."

After sending Zhao Ji into the car, Zhao Ji lifted the curtain of the red sautum and poked his head out and told him: "That person named Wang Zhizhu, are you old acquaintances with him?"

Wang Zhizhu is Wang Xianggong. Chen Ao heard Zhao Ji mention this person and smiled and said, "I said something that shouldn't be said, this person..."

Zhao Ji waved his hand: "Don't say it anymore. I know you have a misunderstanding with him. He once mentioned to me that you will not know each other without fighting. You don't have to take this matter to heart. In front of me, he also praised your calligraphy and painting, saying that only Chen Ao is the only one who can do it. I plan to summon him to the calligraphy and painting academy, and you don't have to make things difficult for him."

Chen Ao thought for a while and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will not make things difficult for him."

Zhao Ji nodded, then lowered the curtain and asked someone to stand up.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

A month passed in a blink of an eye, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival gradually became indifferent. Spring was in full bloom, and talented people were indispensable. The scholars invited a few friends to go out for a walk.

Chen Ao gradually became idle, and the Honglu Temple had negotiated with the people of Xixia. The people of Xixia were really unreasonable. They wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail the Song Dynasty, but Chen Ao was tight and he was unwilling to give money for his usual period, so he continued to stalemate. In the end, even the people of Xixia felt bored. When they encountered such a stingy iron rooster, they could only stare at him.

Just as they were deflated, Chen Ao became enthusiastic, saying that Song Xia’s friendship was a brotherly country, and made many promises that the court had customized the reward list this year, and that the Xixia Kingdom was the most generous, and that the Xixia Kingdom was called to wait for the good news.

This deception forced the Western Xia Kingdom to believe that Chen Ao was also a temple minister after all, so he should believe his words. People say there is, so of course there is. So he hoped that the annual monies would be above the annual monies and waited for the Song Dynasty to be put into the pot.

Of course, Chen Ao fooled the envoy of the Western Xia Kingdom, so what about the temple minister? Isn’t there a saying that goes? It’s easy to be honest with one person, but it’s hard to be honest for a lifetime. Chen Ao believes that he still belongs to the category of human beings and has no intention of going to Mars. Since he is a human being, what’s wrong with fooling you a few words? Not convinced? At most, everyone can see the truth on the battlefield; but at that time, the Tianyi Sect on the North Road of Gyeonggi was destroyed. If you want to fight, I will fight with you.

After appeaseing the people of Xixia, Chen Ao started to formulate new teaching courses for the Martial Arts School, and the five-month training was over. Next, he would start to explain some knowledge of war, and the focus was on how to establish prestige in the army.

Chen Ao once racked his brains on teaching to establish prestige, but Han Shizhong was quick-witted and admitted: "Sir, you don't need to be so troublesome to establish your authority in the army. Just do two things and ensure that the soldiers are willing to work for you."

Chen Ao asked, and Han Shizhong said: "It's very simple. The first thing is to try to deduct less military pay and try to make the soldiers eat and drink as much as possible. The soldiers will naturally be willing to serve."

Chen Ao sighed in his heart that this is indeed a bad world. If you deduct less military pay, you can get the gratitude of the soldiers. What is the logic?

Han Shizhong continued: "As for the second one, the team officials can set an example and charge forward with the soldiers."

"It's that simple?"

Han Shizhong said confidently: "It's that simple!"

Chen Ao seemed unbelievable, but Han Shizhong got out of the battlefield after all, and Shen Ao couldn't help but believe his words.

So Han Shizhong asked to compile these words into the textbook, changing the practice time from five hours to three hours, and the rest of the time was to go to class to listen to lectures.

The news from Jingji North Road has not been heard for a long time. The horse army commander won the battle. He thought that the next step should be to invade Huazhou and offer the thief chief's head to lead the army back to the court. Even the etiquette of triumphant eternity was prepared. Several city gates were specially repaired. However, after this, the news from there was a sank to the sea, and Gao Qiu did not send any message.

However, in the market, there was a vague news that the Ma Junsi was defeated, saying that he was killed and corpses were everywhere. The entire northern road of Jingji was full of defeated soldiers. These news were mentioned by several merchants, but they were all circulated in private. There were also several good things that were promoted. They were taken directly by the officers of Jingzhao Prefecture, and they were labeled as the Tianyi Sect confusing the public.

As a result, the news was curbed, but the more this happened, the more uneasy it made people feel. Last month, the court heard a good news every few days, but now, there was no news at all. Those who were interested secretly speculated and felt more and more that there must be something strange behind this.

The court also felt uneasy, and everyone in the court discussed no longer spoke. When Zhao Ji asked about the matter when he arrived at the North Road of Jingji, he was all very arrogant and dared not come out.

As a result, Zhao Ji asked about Ban Xian. Ban Xian said in surprise: "Your Majesty, I have already submitted a memorial. Didn't Your Majesty see it?"

Memorial? Zhao Ji's eyes and face became stern, and he said, "Where did the memorial come from? What is the matter in the countryside? Cai Aiqing, do you see the sarcastic memorials of the sarcasm?"

Cai Jing raised his eyes and said calmly: "I wonder when Lord Ban's memorial was handed over."

Ban Fei said: "Before Lantern Festival."

Cai Jing bowed to Zhao Ji and said, "Your Majesty, before the Lantern Festival, the old ministers rarely went to the branch office. Why not call a branch office to ask about the record."

At this time, the minister of the Menxia Provincial Department stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have heard a record of this memorial. I looked at it and thought that this matter was not small, so I asked someone to go to the palace."

Ban Fei, who was standing beside him, was full of cold sweats, and was glad that if he had not had this memorial, he would have had no chance of escape. Even if he had to deal with it now, it would be a matter for the subordinates. He looked up at Cai Jing and thought to himself: "It's just that this incident has completely offended Cai Jing. I wonder if Chen Ao can help him."

Zhao Ji's face became even more ugly: "Has I handed it into the palace? Why didn't I see it? You are so brave. A memorial that you can't say it's gone? What's the trick here? Let me tell you clearly here. You are the minister of the disciples, so you can talk about this first."
