Chapter 1708: What reward do you want?
Perhaps in Li Dongyang's heart, he still thought he was innocent.
For a legitimate and open purpose, he believed that any means could be used to do everything.
But... he still knew that he lost, and he lost completely.
Who would have thought that Ye Chunqiu would defeat the Tatars? In his perception, this was absolutely impossible.
Just as many people cannot understand, Batumonk cannot understand, Li Dongyang cannot understand, and Liu Jin cannot understand, but in fact, many people cannot understand.
They had too deep understanding of the old world, but they were completely ignorant of the new system. They only saw merchants who had profit and wealth, but they could not see the huge power contained in it. This was lurking under the comparative greed of human nature was released instantly, such as opening Pandora's box, which made almost everyone under this system need to enrich the country and strengthen the army, so they spared no expense to build a powerful army with hundreds of battles.
Li Dongyang didn't understand, but he lost in the end. He kowtowed, crawled at Zhu Houzhao's feet, and said nothing.
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath, and the pain that had just passed quietly. He glanced at Li Dongyang in disgust, and finally waved his hand and said, "Take it down."
Several imperial guards had already rushed in, went to the black veil on Li Dongyang's head, and dragged Li Dongyang down.
The people in the warm chalet are still shocked.
Sweeping the desert.
what does that mean?
When Emperor Taizu was there, what he could never forget was the threat from the north. When Emperor Wen was there, he knew that the depths of the desert were the hidden dangers of the destruction of the Ming Dynasty. The Tumu Fort changed to wake everyone up. The entire Ming system has always been focusing on targeting the desert. Therefore, the imperial court has been crazily building walls for more than a hundred years. Even when it was allocated less money and food during disaster relief, he spared no expense to build countless fortresses. This battle completely defeated the Tatars.
call……
Zhu Zaiyao looked at Zhu Houzhao and looked at Ye Chunqiu again. When the bad news of Yafu came, he had doubts in his heart, he was a little disbelief, and Yafu died easily. Now, he suddenly became clear in his heart, and then he was overjoyed, with tears in his eyes, and bowed: "Congratulations to Father, pacify the desert."
The Hu people did not dare to go south and shed their horses, and the soldiers did not dare to bend their bows and complain. This was a sentence from the Qin theories, but this sentence was exactly the meaning of this great victory at this moment.
Wang Hua and others finally came to their senses. They were equally happy, but no one cared about Li Dongyang. Although some people sighed in their hearts, they were finally covered by this great joy. So everyone bowed and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
Liu Jin even walked out of the gate of hell, and couldn't help but look up at Ye Chunqiu, full of gratitude.
If Ye Chunqiu had not excused him, he would have to die so much that he would not die again.
He knew very well that Li Dongyang's fate should have been his own. He finally escaped from death, but he was only scared at this moment, but he was grateful. The real life-saving grace is hard to repay if he is a cow or a horse in this life. Besides, facing a god like Ye Chunqiu, he will never be grateful in the future. Could it be that he dares to oppose Ye Chunqiu?
Liu Jin was overjoyed and shouted congratulations to His Majesty, but his eyes were looking at Ye Chunqiu.
From then on, I have to be devoted to Ye Chunqiu.
Ye Chunqiu still showed no expression for the gratitude he sent to Liu Jin. He saved Liu Jin not because Liu Jin had any affair with him. It was just because he knew very well that Liu Jin's appearance was not due to Liu Jin himself, but because of His Majesty's character. Even if Liu Jin died, a new Liu Jin would soon be replaced. Although Liu Jin has many disadvantages now, at least he is controllable. After all, he still has feelings for His Majesty, and he has figured out the way for Liu Jin. Therefore, Liu Jin has been tamed now, and his harm is not great.
If another new Liu Jin appears, like people like Qian Ning and Jiang Bin who Zhu Houzhao once favored in history, it would be quite harmful.
Since that's the case, it's better to keep him and gain his gratitude. Ye Chunqiu already knows Liu Jin very well and knows that this person made this big mistake because he is greedy for life and afraid of death. Isn't it normal for eunuchs to be afraid of death?
Ye Chunqiu did not ask Liu Jin to devote himself to his heart or make any contribution to the court, but at least, even if it harmed others, it could guarantee that the harm could be minimized.
Ye Chunqiu could see clearly that the so-called power and traitors in history were essentially in the emperor, not in people like Liu Jin.
Zhu Houzhao is a straightforward person. Although Li Dongyang did make him sad, after all, the weight of this great victory is heavier.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao was praised by everyone, but still said with a smile: "This time, the one who earned me is Spring and Autumn. What do you congratulate me on? I am very ashamed. Although I have passed the barrier, I have not done much. I will wait for the next time and I will make a great contribution..."
Now, everyone's faces changed again.
Do you want to have a next time? This time is enough to scare everyone to death!
But now, the king of heaven is the biggest, at least for the time being, everyone is relieved. Everyone is really afraid of Zhu Houzhao. This is a real old man and no one can afford to offend him, so they just pretend that he didn't hear him.
Zhu Houzhao seemed to have not seen everyone's expression just now, and continued happily: "Ha, it's not too late for you to congratulate you when I have truly made great contributions. I want to congratulate you now!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao looked at Ye Chunqiu with bright eyes and then said, "Chunqiu, everyone is here today. I am a cheerful person. You solved the stubborn disease of the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop. I reward you when I have made merits and punish you when I have made mistakes. I have clear rewards. What rewards do you want for yourself?"
Everyone looked at Ye Chunqiu, but Wang Hua became alert.
Your Majesty actually pushed all the credit to Ye Chunqiu without hesitation? This seems not a good sign. After all, Ye Chunqiu is already an extremely powerful minister and can be said to be rewarded. Although Your Majesty is different from other emperors, it is better to be low-key at this point.
Ye Chunqiu pondered for a moment, but said, "I dare not ask for rewards. I have shared the same relationship with the emperor and the royal family. Protecting the country is to protect the family. This is the right thing to do."
These words reassuring Wang Hua.
Although this guy made great contributions, at this time, he still knew that it was not easy, not easy to be so humble and cautious.
