Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 499
Luo Cheng left the palace city through the Yingtian gate, and then left the imperial city through the Duan gate.

There is a big square outside the Duancheng Gate, with the Tianjin Bridge in front. Luo Cheng searched for his brothers, but at a glance, he saw a group of people gathered in the square in front of the Tianjin Bridge.

Walking over, I saw Shi Xin and Yu Wencheng staring there, like two bulls about to fight.

On the other side, surrounded by a large group of people, on the left is Siye Cunxiao Qin Qiong and the others, on the right is Li Min with a swollen face like a pig's head, and Yu Wenhua and his brothers with a smirk.Beside, there are many onlookers.

The onlookers are basically wearing official robes, many in green official robes, and some in purple.

It's right to think about it, this is the gate of the imperial city after passing the Tianjin Bridge, and ordinary people are not qualified to come here.

Seeing Luo Cheng coming out, Siye quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is it, Your Majesty didn't punish him?"

Luo Cheng smiled slightly, and Siye and others breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Li Min over there said disdainfully, "Yo, you still put it on, Luo Cheng, tell everyone, how will His Majesty deal with you, will you be dismissed from office or dismissed?"

This bastard's face was swollen like a pig's head, but he was still triumphant, as if his wife would cry when he entered the palace, Luo Cheng must be in trouble.When he heard that the emperor called Luo Cheng into the palace, he immediately ran over and waited to see Luo Cheng joke.

Luo Cheng stepped forward.

As a result, Li Min involuntarily took a few steps back. This was almost a subconscious move. When he came back to his senses, that half of his face was involuntarily flushed, and he felt ashamed, so he took a few more steps forward.

"What's the matter, in front of the imperial city, do you still want to commit murder again?"

Luo Cheng chuckled.

"Marquis Jingcheng, I didn't say I wanted to beat you. What are you doing backing away in fright? If you say that you are also a general after all, although you have never led soldiers to fight, compared to your old man who died for the country It’s far worse, but it shouldn’t be so cowardly.”

"Who is afraid of you, who is afraid of you?" Li Min blushed.

"I'm not afraid of you returning anything, hey."

"Luo Cheng, you're so arrogant, what's the use of being stubborn now? Even if you don't say it now, I'll know how you've been dealt with when I go to the palace and ask."

Luo Cheng smiled, "Marquis of Jingcheng, since you care so much about my personal future, Luo Cheng, it's okay for me to tell you now, just now His Majesty called me into the palace, and I have been granted the honor of being promoted to Kaifu Yitong." The third division, the Duke of Chu State, gave food to [-] households in the city, and Zhenfeng Tongqian [-] households. In addition, I have been appointed as the prefect of Liaodong and the military forces of Liaodong and Liaodong. , In addition, Your Majesty also promoted me to be the General of Zuo Tunwei, and rewarded me with all the houses of the Yang Ni family, such as money and silk slaves, yes, including the house in Shang Shan Fang that you had taken a fancy to before."

On the square in front of the Tianjin Bridge, there were many people standing there to watch the excitement.

Many officials had heard of Luo Cheng's name before, but they had never seen him. They heard that Li Min, Marquis of Jingcheng, had been beaten when they first entered the capital.

Who would have expected that Luo Cheng would come out in a short while, and he was so proud of himself. When he said the reward, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

The promotion is so high and the reward is so heavy, what about the punishment?
"Impossible, you dare to talk nonsense, this is in front of the imperial city."

Li Min is the least willing to believe this fact, and will never believe it.

"You beat up an important official of the court, how could His Majesty not punish you?"

Luo Cheng took a step forward, but this time Li Min gritted his teeth and did not retreat.

Standing together, Luo Cheng was obviously half a head taller than Li Min, and he looked down at him condescendingly, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, His Majesty did say that I shouldn't beat you, and punished me, um, punished me." What am I doing, by the way, I will be fined for one year's salary. Ouch, I feel so distressed, one year's salary."

Luo Cheng patted his chest pretending to be distressed.

The fourth child over there couldn't help it anymore, and almost fell down laughing, "Oh, fifth child, it's not worth it for you to talk about you, playing such a thing, and I lost a year's salary as a result. You are now a Living in the first rank, this year’s salary is quite a lot. The annual salary of the first rank is [-] shi, and the monthly salary is also [-] yuan. Oh, how many fields and land do we have to buy to bring so much money and food to our hometown in Zhangqiu? .”

The distressed look of the fourth child provoked the surrounding officials to say that they were vulgar.

However, some people think that the fourth child made a mistake. After all, although Kaifu Yi and the third division were dismissed from the first rank, they were only dismissed officials, not actual positions. In the Sui Dynasty, salaries were paid according to actual duties, and dismissed officials did not. As for the salary, if it is a high-level or low-level position, it is only paid according to the position.

At the same time, even for officials of the same level, if the specific official positions are different, there will be differences. For example, a fourth-rank local prefect may have a much higher salary than a fourth-rank official in the Prince's Mansion.The prefect is also divided into salary levels according to the population of each county.

Luo Cheng's current specific positions are General Zuo Tunwei and Liaodong Taishou. He also has two temporary envoys.Among the two main positions, General Zuo Tunwei is the third rank, and the Liaodong prefect is the prefect of Shangjun, and he is the third rank.

In the Sui Dynasty, the salary was paid according to the position. Luo Chengzheng's real position of the third rank was [-] shimi per year, and [-] yuan per month.If one year's salary is fined, five hundred shimi plus [-] yuan will be deducted. Although there are part-time jobs, no additional salary will be given, and officials of scattered ranks will not receive salary. As for the title, it will be food.

Of course, the so-called penalty salary is only the basic salary of the penalty.

As for a high-ranking official, the income does not depend on this salary. In addition to the annual salary and monthly salary, officials also have post land, official permanent land, and nobility food, and even labor money, various miscellaneous money, etc. Wait, each yamen will have a small treasury like public money, not to mention all kinds of filial piety and so on.

A one-year salary penalty will not have a big impact on ordinary officials, let alone these first-rank princes.

Luo Cheng also covered his chest on purpose, "Wow, so much money and food were fined, I really feel distressed. Five hundred shi of rice, one shi per mu, this is the output of five hundred mu of land."

Li Min was furious.

"impossible!"

Yes, how could it be possible, he was so favored by the emperor, why was he fined for one year's salary after being beaten like this?
"Oh, I also forgot to mention that your majesty said that you, Li Min, are very ignorant and you are full of food, so your majesty said that you will be removed from the post of General Zuo Tunwei, and you will be cut off from the real seal of a thousand households. , and let you stay at home and think about your mistakes."

"You falsely preached the imperial decree."

"Don't talk nonsense, how dare I, Luo Cheng, dare to pass the imperial decree in front of the imperial city? Li Min, although I am the General of the Zuo Tunwei now, I really don't want you, the Zuo Tunwei General, His Majesty didn't let you do it, don't blame me."

Having said that, Li Min became more and more convinced that it was Luo Chengjin's slander.

　Asking for a monthly ticket, it rains every day, people are listless, have insomnia for many days in a row, code words at night and rest during the day, and the result is always updating errors, sorry!
