There were three types of dynasties in the Ming Dynasty, namely: Dacha, the New Year and the New Year, and the Changcha. The dynasties are usually only held on the dynasty, the Winter Solstice, and the Wannian Festival (the emperor’s birthday). The nature is that all officials congratulate the emperor. It is ritual and the largest scale, and is held in the Fengtian Hall.

The first and fifteenth days of each month are held on the first and fifteenth days of each month. Its nature is like a dynasty and is also held in Fengtian Hall, just congratulations and does not discuss political affairs.

Changchao, which is what we usually call the morning court. If the emperor works diligently, it will be held every day. The location is also in Fengtian Hall. The emperor will listen to the ministers’ memorials and handle political affairs in the morning court.

Today's court meeting is a major court, which is temporarily added, which is quite a bit of a celebration of Xu Jin, because Xu Jin will return the imperial edict to the emperor today. However, Xu Jin made such a great contribution in Shandong and eliminated tens of thousands of rebels. It is not an exaggeration for the emperor to hold a court meeting for him and the generals to celebrate the merits.

At this time, all civil and military officials were standing in a row outside the Fengtian Hall, holding their forehead scepters in their hands and hugging them in front of their chests, waiting for the emperor to arrive at the seat in the cold wind in the morning.

At about 7 o'clock in the morning, the imperial carriage finally arrived amid the noisy drums and music. But when the flags were waving, the tiger and leopard were leading the way. The little emperor Zhu Hougui wore a five-clawed golden dragon robe and a curtain crown. He walked along the imperial road under the escort of the Yulin Guard and climbed straight to Fengtian Hall to ascend to the seat. The civil and military officials knelt down and shouted three times to long live my emperor.

After a series of rituals, all civil and military officials stood on both sides of the Imperial Road. Only the bosses from various departments and courts were qualified to enter the hall, while other officials could only blow cold wind outside the hall. Xu Jin, a Hanlin writer from the sixth rank, was naturally also blowing cold wind.

Therefore, weak civil servants will easily catch colds when attending courts in winter. If they are seen by the censors in charge of the inspection, they will be impeached and misbehaved before the emperor. They are not ordinary fucking.

Xu Jin held the locust wood scepter and blew the cold wind outside the hall for a while. A eunuch in the hall shouted: "See you when you enter the hall!"

"See you when the Xuan Hanlin editor enters the hall!" The guards outside the hall shouted out in a relay. So, Xu Jin stepped out under the envious gaze of the officials, followed the Danmu and walked to the imperial throne without looking sideways. He knelt down and shouted: "My minister Xu Jin, come to my emperor!"

"Xu Qing is calm!" Zhu Houcan stretched out his hand to "exert his strength" and helped Xu Jin up from the air.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Jin stood up and hurriedly glanced at Zhu Houguan on the imperial throne. Seeing the boy with a tense face and a serious look, he blinked his eyes a few times.

Xu Jin naturally did not dare to "tell the feelings" to Emperor Jiajing in front of a group of officialdom, and began to report his work seriously. The so-called report of his work was to report his work to the boss.

Xu Jin had already written a reply last night, and with his eloquence, he briefly summarized the work he had done in Shandong and then handed over the imperial edict. This is the so-called interception.

After listening to Xu Jin's work report, Boss Zhu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Xu Qing's trip to provide disaster relief, eliminate corruption, suppress rebels, and work hard and making great contributions. It is not enough to show his merits without reward. Bi Yun, announce my decree!"

Bi Yun, the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, hurriedly walked forward with the imperial edict and sang with a smile: "Xu Jin comes forward to listen to the imperial edict!"

Xu Jin stepped forward and knelt down again. The eunuch Bi Yun opened the imperial edict and read it loudly: "Fengtian must carry on the emperor. The system said:... This promoted Xu Jin to Hanlin Secretariat, and was also a member of the Ministry of War, and was in charge of the military affairs. He was specially awarded Jing'an Bo with military merits, and was awarded eight hundred stones of salary, and was awarded an imperial title for one lifetime. He also rewarded ten thousand taels of silver, three hundred silk, one hundred brocade, three hundred silk, two hundred silk, two hundred silk, fifty yarn, fifty eastern pearls, and fifty southern pearls…”

A long list of rewarded items has hundreds of varieties, with a total value of 20,000 to 30,000 taels, which made the officials present look sideways. Yang Tan, the Minister of Revenue, even had a toothache. Yesterday, Xu Jin gave 500,000 taels of stolen silver to the inner treasury. Today, the young emperor rewarded Xu Jin with tens of thousands of taels, which seemed to be sharing the spoils.

"I will receive the order, thank you for your kindness!" Xu Jin raised his hands high and took over the imperial edict from Bi Yun's hand.

Although news about Xu Jin's reward had long been heard, when I heard the imperial edict read out with my own ears, all the civil and military officials in the court were still envious of them. This was really a promotion and wealth!

Immediately afterwards, Bi Yun read out the rewards to other generals. This time, among the generals who participated in the suppression of Shandong rebels, in addition to Xu Jin's promotion, it was naturally the turn of the commander of Guide Wei, Huang Qi, who was directly promoted to two levels and transferred to Shandong as the commander of the commander (the second-rank military officer). In addition, the other generals did not receive the same level of rewards. Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong were both promoted to Qianhu, and Wang Lin'er was also promoted to Qianhu, and from Qianhu to the assistant commander of the guard (the fourth-rank military officer).

This grand dynasty meeting was originally a kind of congratulations and did not report political affairs, so after reading the imperial edict for reward, he quickly announced his resignation, but Xu Jin was kept by Zhu Houcong. The emperor's closeness to Xu Jin made the cabinet chief Yang Tinghe a little savored.

"Haha, Xu Jin, you did not disappoint me. You did a great job. You also regained hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for my inner treasury."

When all the ministers left, Zhu Houcan immediately took off the curtain that was in the way, leaned on the dragon chaise invisibly, and crossed his legs. Xu Jin couldn't help but speechless. This was Fengtian Hall, so he naturally did not dare to be as arrogant as Zhu Houcan, and stood respectfully and said: "It is the duty of the minister to share the worries of the emperor!"

Zhu Houcan rolled his eyes and said, "It's boring to speak like this. Forget it, I'd better slip to your house tomorrow. You'll tell me about the extermination of the rebels. I just said it too briefly and it wouldn't be enough to listen. By the way, I still have to eat spicy mutton offal, don't forget."

Xu Jin said laughing and cryingly: "I... obey the order, how hot the emperor is?"

“Abnormal spicy!”

Bi Yun, the eunuch of the Sili Prison next to him, and several small yellow sects, couldn't help but jump around as he listened to the conversation between the king and his ministers.

Xu Jin chatted with Zhu Houyan for a while before leaving Fengtian Palace. After leaving the palace, he returned to Hanlin Academy. A group of colleagues stepped forward to congratulate him.

At the same time, the news of Xu Jin's promotion was also sent back to the Xu Mansion, and the items rewarded by the emperor were then delivered. The whole mansion was in full bloom. The servants ran around and told him that the butler Dabao also ordered people to set off a bundle of firecrackers in front of the mansion.

...

The Fei family's house is in Xiaoyongfang. After get off work, Xu Jin brought a few kilograms of newly made small black tea this year and visited his mentor Fei Hong.

Not long ago, Han Xin specially sent someone to deliver dividends from this year's carriage shop to the capital, and also brought more than a dozen kilograms of black tea.

Xu Jin's current status is different now. When the Fei family's concierge saw Uncle Xu coming to the door, he immediately opened the door respectfully to greet him. Butler Zhou personally led Xu Jin to the living room and presented fragrant tea. After sitting for a while, the maid Hongying came out and said, "Master, please let Lord Xu talk in the study."

Xu Jin stood up and smiled and said, "It's time for Miss Hongying!"

Hongying smiled, nodded and turned around and turned to his career. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. When Mr. Xu first visited the door, she was still a poor scholar. However, she had reached the fifth rank in just a few years and was also named Earl. This really makes people sigh. Fortunately, Mr. Xu is still as approachable as before.

A small red mud stove was burning in the study room, and a pot of Shaoxing rice wine was warmed. Fei Hong seemed to have expected Xu Jin to come, and sat next to the stove with a gentle smile and waved, "Ziqian, sit here!"

Xu Jin hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and saluted: "Students have met Mr. Fei!"

For Fei Hong, Xu Jin is respect and gratitude from the bottom of his heart. This is a truly knowledgeable and generous elder. Without him, there would be no one who is now. Only those who are always grateful can go further!

Fei Hong obviously didn't expect Xu Jin to give such a big gift. He was slightly stunned, with a kind smile on his face, and reached out to help Xu Jin with ease, and said with relief: "Sit up Ziqian, the wine has been warm."

Xu Jin sat down opposite Fei Hong. The maid Hongying picked up the wine pot and poured a pot of wine for the master and apprentice, and then left.

At this moment, a rustling sound came from outside the window, and a few snowflakes floated in from the window like elves.

Fei Hong was in a very good mood. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip, looked out the window and whispered: "Green Ants New Wine, Red Mud Small Fireworks. It's time to snow in the evening, can you drink a glass of wine without a drink?"

The master and apprentice looked at each other and smiled. While drinking warm wine, listening to the snowflakes falling outside the window, chatting about the past and present affairs, it was a joy to have fun.
