Huo Lingjue and his party went in to pick up the corpses, so they quickly tied up everyone and took them out, and then searched the inside.
Unexpectedly, I actually came out with about 20,000 to 30,000 weapons, mostly long knives, but also some others.
In this way, the credit will suddenly be much greater.
Originally, the credit for catching the rebels was not small, but for seizing so many weapons, the credit must be doubled.
I grabbed it and examined it hastily.
The "lord" was called Zhou Hong, and he was really a descendant of the last king of the Zhou Kingdom. At that time, his father, the third prince, and his uncles were in the midst of a battle to seize the throne. His father accidentally discovered iron ore and began to make weapons. As a result,
After the weapons were built, but before the troops were stationed, the Zhou Kingdom was destroyed.
His father happened not to return to Beijing and escaped a disaster, so he hid here, waiting for the opportunity to come back. As a result, he died in a second-rate manner, leaving the emperor's grandson behind, who happened to learn some kung fu.
, has begun recruiting manpower in recent years to prepare for the restoration of the country.
As for that kind of mysterious and fragrant flower, it was accidentally created by a folk doctor before the Zhou Dynasty was overthrown.
Later, in order to win over him, the third prince adopted his daughter. Zhou Hong was the daughter of this doctor. Since all the serious emperors and grandsons died on the day of the country's fall, he, the son of an outsider, became the only descendant.
Today, this medical woman is still alive, revered as the Queen Mother, and has two other faces.
All in all, it's pretty dramatic.
Huo Lingjue wrote a memorial and at the same time sent weapons and prisoners to the capital.
This is really a credit to the work that came to our door. Except for the Jiangnan governor and the local county magistrate who were guilty of negligence, everyone else has credit.
Coincidentally, Lu Zhirui's campaign to eliminate the rebels in Jinzhou also ended in these two days. Compared to what they had done for half a year, it was particularly easy for Huo Lingjue and his group.
On the day of the Qianqiu Festival, Shen Zhoujin did not return to Beijing. On the next day, in the afternoon, Emperor Wu Xuan called Shen Zhoujin over and asked him: "Mian'er, Jin'er, have you written a letter?"
Shen Zhoumian hurriedly said: "I wrote it. I wish you were safe."
Emperor Wu Xuan was still a little surprised: "You only reported peace?"
Shen Zhoumian had also heard some rumors in the past two days, so he simply repeated a few sentences of the letter she wrote. Emperor Wu Xuan was amused: "Jin'er's extremely narrow-minded temper has turned into a treacherous person in front of you and Shen Qing."
You’re a good boy.”
While he was talking, he asked Rong Siping to take out Shen Zhoujin's letter and read it to him. In addition, he also took out all the excerpts from Huo Lingjue and Lu Zhirui and asked him to read them accordingly.
Shen Zhoumian was good at poetry and books, so he read through them quickly.
After reading it, I actually understand it.
Because if Shen Zhoujin wrote this for him, he would definitely get worried after reading the beginning and rush to read the end, and the fun of the reversal would be gone.
Emperor Wu Xuan said: "At the beginning of the year, there were rebels hiding in Jinzhou, and now there is another one in the south of the Yangtze River. The rebels hide in the mountains, and then spread some rumors to prevent others from setting foot. Such a simple method has been effective every time...
...Although Jin'er's letter is naughty, it is very interesting to write. Just imitate her letter and write out the cause and effect in this person's tone. Jinzhou only needs to mention it in one sentence. After it is written, it will be circulated in the newspaper.
In the world, let these local officials conduct self-examination, and the local people should pay more attention, so that they do not hesitate to move forward when they hear about ghosts and ghosts, but let these people feel at ease."
Shen Zhoumian responded repeatedly. He was already knowledgeable and had a strong memory, so he didn't need to take away the letter and the fold, so he retreated directly.
I finished the article quickly, asked Yu Zhiyuan to read it, and handed it to the emperor the next day.
Emperor Wu Xuan thought it was good after reading it, so he sent it to the Hanlin Academy to copy it overnight. Then the officials' copy was distributed along with the newspaper, and also to various literary societies.
Of course Shen Zhoujin also received it.
She was just joking with the emperor, but she didn't expect that the emperor would do this. But it's good. This kind of writing doesn't exist yet. When the time comes, the literati will not like it, but they won't like it, but they won't like it. Can leave a deep impression.
Once the "Chaoyang Masses" are interested, they can't hide any rebels.
Because this matter was encountered by Lu Zhiji first, the article was also written in the name of Lu Zhiji. Lu Zhiji was asked by countless people a day, and he rushed over to tell her.
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, just say that you only told Xiao Jue about the matter. Xiao Jue wrote to the emperor. The emperor may have asked someone to polish it."
Lu Zhiji sighed: "I'm still embarrassed. What if someone asks me to write an article in public in the future?"
Shen Zhoujin coughed: "Don't worry, this kind of article will never be published...but there may be a scholar who comes over and spits on you because he thinks you are insulting your elegance."
Lu Zhiji said: "That doesn't matter, just say whatever you want!"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said: "Actually, writing in your name has other advantages, because you see, your brother has also gone to suppress the rebels, but with his age and qualifications, being the deputy commander of Longxiang Guard is very high. Yes, so I’ll probably reward you with some property, and maybe reward you a little more heavily.”
Lu Zhiji was very excited: "Want me to be a general?"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said: "Actually, generals are not necessarily of high rank. For example, General Wu De is only of the fifth rank, and General Wu Yi is only of the fifth rank."
Lu Zhiji asked: "What rank am I now?"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said, "You and Liancheng are both sixth-rank officials."
This is actually a favor given to her by Marquis An Ning. They are like followers, they don't even have a rank, the sixth rank is already very high.
But this time, if her guess is true and Lu Zhirui's contribution is added, it is possible that Lu Zhirui can pass the fifth level, even if it is from the fourth level, it will be very good.
Sure enough, within a month, the reward came.
Lu Zhiji was promoted two ranks to become General Xianwu, from the fourth rank.
Chu Liancheng was promoted to the rank of General Wuyi, from the fifth rank.
The local guard station also received a reward, but Shen Zhoujin and Huo Lingjue were only rewarded with property.
Shen Zhoujin himself has no seal, but like Huo Lingjue, it is because there is no suitable candidate.
Because he is an official who has been officially awarded, unlike Shen Zhoujin, who was promoted to an official position. Shen Zhoujin now has a title and has been promoted to two ministers, but the official promotion does not affect their own operations. Huo Lingjue is in trouble here. Much.
Because he was originally a fifth-grade household minister, and with such great merit, he was at least a minister, but he couldn't just knock someone down and take up the job himself.
Therefore, Emperor Wu Xuan probably wanted to wait until Jiangnan's mission was over and then join him to do some favors.
By that time, the earthquake, the rebels, and the snow next summer, the three major achievements combined will be enough to change the title.
Lu Zhirui and Jiang Yinchi and the others he brought over were only rewarded with property.
As the end of the year draws to a close, people from all walks of life are returning one after another. Qin Yunchiao, who has been fighting the drought, and officials who have been sent to lead people to plant cotton and build dams. Calculating this year, there are really a lot of things happening in the world.
Shen Zhoujin took advantage of the fact that it was still cold and went out for another ten days to carve a ring for Huo Lingjue.
I hurried and hurried slowly. When I came back, it was already the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
