Chapter 462: You are not afraid to lose your head, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
”Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng bowed and saluted Emperor Chongzhen.Chongzhen was indeed very moved, although he didn't understand military affairs, but he also knew that one general would succeed in ten thousand bones, injure one thousand enemies, and lose eight hundred in himself.When the Liaodong Army left the customs, there were 60,000 or 70,000 horses, and now only more than 10,000 people have returned.Of course, this was made up by Chongzhen's own brain.In fact, in this battle of Quang Ninh, the dead soldiers of the whole family army have been counted, there are always 52 people, and more than 700 people are wounded.In fact, there were more than 100 seriously injured people.The Tianxiong army carried Huang Taiji's attack for two days and one night, and the losses were a little greater, but the casualties of less than 2,000 people, plus the wounded and civilian casualties, were still less than one-thirtieth of Jiannu's.It can be said that this time the Liaodong Army played a terrifying record, and the exchange ratio between the two sides reached 1:57.This is the power of technology, and fortunately, the 4th Brigade did not complete the redress.If Quan Xu was asked to replace the whole family army with five or six half, five or six charges, and five or six squads with light machine guns, five-four heavy machine guns, plus sniper rifles, mortars, and rocket artillery, then the whole family army would definitely be able to fight a one-to-one hundred, or even more exaggerated record."
No thanks!"
Chongzhen patted Lu Xiangsheng on the shoulder, and then looked at Quan Xu with a meaningful gaze: "This is what you deserve!"
”Chongzhen watched the military parade that the whole family army and the Tianxiong army gave him wholeheartedly, while Cao Huachun looked at Quan Xu with a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Xiu Wu, hey, look at my mouth, it's time to call you Wuwei Hou in the future!"
”Then Cao Huachun squeezed his eyes at Lu Xiangsheng again: "Lord Lu, you will be the Marquis of Zhongning in the future!"
”Quan Xu looked at Chongzhen's smiling appearance, he deliberately pretended not to hear, he understood, this is what Chongzhen meant, let Cao Huachun reveal it to Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng."
Grandpa Cao, don't you joke with me!""
Wu Weihou, how dare the slave and maid joke with you!"
Cao Huachun said with a smile: "The holy decree has been prepared, and no one in the cabinet has objected, so we will wait for the auspicious day to hold the Yaowei Dedication Ceremony, and it will be announced at the ceremony!"
”With the completion of the military parade, Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng enjoyed the treatment of a cross-horse parade in the streets, and they followed Chongzhen's jade chariot back to the capital.Along the way, Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng were watched by people inhumanely wherever he went, especially Quan Xu, there was no way, who made him young and not married?
It is a tradition to ask for a wife at a low door and marry a woman at a high door, and officials, gentry, and nobles who have not left the cabinet also come out to watch, which is simply an empty alley.Finally came to the capital, Quan Xu's family army and Tianxiong army had already set up a large camp outside the city, and there were also meat and wine sent by the gentry and the government.Quan Xu followed Lu Xiangsheng and Cao Huachun to the palace, Quan Xu didn't want to kneel, Chongzhen seemed to see Quan Xu's careful thinking and smiled: "My Wuwei Hou, what are you thinking?"
”"The minister is wondering, is Your Majesty out of money again?"
Chongzhen smiled stunned: "Why does Quan Aiqing have such an idea?
”"If Your Majesty still has money, can you use more than 200 miles out of the capital to comfort us, and use the name of a marquis to fool us?"
Quan Xu said disapprerovingly: "Won't it be over if we just send down the reward we deserve?"
”Emperor Chongzhen was a little depressed: "You really think so?"
”"Other than that, the minister really can't think of any other reason."
Cao Huachun was frightened, he never imagined that Jeon Wook would be so bold.Lu Xiangsheng had a straight face: "Wuweihou, you ......"
He couldn't go on halfway through the words, Lu Xiangsheng really didn't know how to complain about this living treasure.Chongzhen sighed and said, "You living treasure......
You really don't know how difficult it is to be a marquis in the Ming Dynasty?
”"Is it difficult?"
Quan Xu was a little disapproving, he knew that it wouldn't be long before the title of Daming would be flooded, Liu Zeqing could be named Dongpingbo, Zuo Liangyu's rotten man could also be knighted as the Marquis of Pingnan, Gao Jie could be named Xingpingbo, as for what could this Wuwei Marquis be counted as?"
No matter how difficult it is, it is not as realistic as a million taels of silver!"
Emperor Chongzhen said angrily: "Okay, then I will tell you directly, since the Jingjing, there has been no military general in the Ming Dynasty who can be a marquis, not one!"
Qi Shaobao's credit is big enough, right?
Not sealed; Li Chengliang's military exploits are much more prominent than Qi Shaobao's, and he is just a Ning Yuanbo!
In order to make the two Aiqing marquis, I have quarreled with the civil and military officials for many days, but unfortunately, some people don't appreciate it!
”Quan Xu pouted and said, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to eat, the minister is hungry!"
”Quan Xu can be regarded as giving Chongzhen a step down, and this matter is over.On the old scale, Chongzhen held a private banquet again in order to show favor to Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng, and there were six people attending the banquet, Chongzhen's crown prince, Princess Kunxing, and Queen Zhou, plus Lu Xiangsheng and Quan Xu.Of course, Wang Chengen is responsible for serving tea and pouring water.Seeing the little princess again, Quan Xu was slightly stunned.At this time, the little princess is even more cute than two years ago, with a fat little face, big eyes, long eyelashes, especially her eyes, which are very smart.As for the crown prince, he is dark and thin, with a pair of red phoenix eyes, and he looks a little afraid of Quan Xu.Quan Xu looked at the little prince and the little princess, as if he remembered something: "Oh, Gonggong Cao, you forgot to bring my souvenirs here, remember the sixteenth car." ”Cao Huachun sighed in his heart: "Our family is a ceremonial eunuch, not a eunuch who works in front of the emperor!"
”However, Jeon Wook didn't take Cao Huachun seriously at all.Cao Huachun was a little helpless, and after getting the permission of Emperor Chongzhen, not long after, the cart called the No. 16 car by Quan Xu was sent to the palace.Empress Zhou was a little curious: "What good things did Quan Aiqing bring this time!"
”"Guess!"
Cao Huachun wanted to cover his ears, but he didn't dare to listen.It is estimated that Quan Xu is the only one in the whole world who dares to talk to Queen Zhou like this.In fact, Quan Xu is also testing Chongzhen.In fact, no matter what he does, the decision is in Chongzhen's hands, if Chongzhen thinks that Quan Xu is the master of high merit, then even if Quan Xu is respectful, he can also concoct evidence that Quan Xu is not subordinate, and then deprive him of his knighthood, or put him in prison.If Chongzhen didn't want to deal with him, his performance like this could be regarded as sincerity.is like a lover's eyes, when he likes a person, his every move is a merit, and when he hates a person, everything he does will be an eyesore.Quan Xu didn't fool Chongzhen with anything like potatoes and canned sweet potatoes this time, the so-called gift is really a precious gift.However, it is not a gift of this era.At this time, Quan Xu took down a brocade box from the box of the cart.The brocade box is artificially cultivated pearls in southern Liaoning, which are all real pearls, not plastic things that fool people, but pearls are very cheap in later generations, especially pearls in average condition.The pearl that Quan Xu took out was golden, and the four gold pearls the size of a pigeon's egg could be completely jewelry-grade.Quan Xu handed the four golden pearls to the little princess.The little princess's eyes rolled wildly, and she showed a sweet smile at him, obviously, educated by Queen Zhou, the little princess's tutor is still good, and after getting Queen Zhou's permission, the little princess reached out and took the four golden pearls.Quan Xu picked up another box and said: "Your Majesty, this is the military department of Jiannu to pay tribute to the ministers, this thing is ill-intentioned, these things are not available to the ministers!"
”In fact, Quan Xu also explained the origin of these things in the name of Turge, and the golden pearl was also a treasure in Daming.It's not a problem to sell tens of thousands of taels of silver, it's all for business.Then, Quan Xu opened it from the box, revealing dense white pearls, of course, in average condition, and in large quantities.Empress Zhou looked surprised: "So many?
”"There are a lot of good things in Jiannu, I don't know how many I robbed!"
Quan Xu stretched out his hands towards Chongzhen: "The minister is still a little, ready to sell it in the capital, Gonggong Cao, please inquire, who wants these pearls and jade!"
”Quanxu's pearl cultivation base in southern Liaoning is actually a disguise, the important thing is that he needs to use time and space to realize, and the large-scale pearl cultivation base in later generations can get a large number of pearls, which can be weighed in kilograms.In this day and age, pearls were also quite an expensive luxury.Of course, Chongzhen's noodles do business.Quan Xu's reason is very sufficient: "Your Majesty, you also know that raising soldiers is too expensive, if you want the soldiers to sell their lives, you must give enough money to sell their lives, otherwise they will not work the battlefield." ”Chongzhen acquiesced.Then, Quan Xu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you have a good mouth today, when I went north with Lord Lu this time, I met a blind bear, and my own soldiers were captured alive after three times and five divided by two, so that the imperial dining room was slaughtered, and you can eat bear steak and bear paws!"
”Lu Xiangsheng didn't know what to say about Quan Xu at this time, he covered his face.Quan Xu's words instead have an appetite for Chongzhen.Chongzhen has been the emperor for more than five years, and which of the ministers he met was not carefully complimenting him?
The only Quan Xu didn't regard him as an emperor at all, but like a friend.Chongzhen said with a smile: "It's been a few years since I ascended the throne, and I have never eaten a bear's paw. ”"Of course, it's not all!"
Quan Xu waved his hand and asked people to pull over the gift he had prepared, this was not a two-car car, but dozens of cars, and the things on it were all sorted.Sika deer, sea cucumbers, abalone, pike crabs, purple sea urchins, big-boned chickens, mink, sturgeon, salmon, hazelnut chickens, and a half-sized Siberian tiger.It's enough for Chongzhen to open a zoo.Of course, these things are eaten.Quan Xu didn't regard himself as an outsider, he was like a family with the emperor, he was like going home in the emperor, and directly commanded those eunuchs: "This fish is the best when grilled, the crab lungs of this sea crab must be thrown away, and the internal organs of the cuttlefish must be torn clean......
Hurry up and cook this tuna for me, I'm going to make a barbecue!
”Lu Xiangsheng saw that the cold sweat came down, aren't you afraid of losing your head if you are so presumptuous?
