Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 7: Face to face, happy to propose a new house (please recommend and collect)

Three days later, Su Ran returned to the capital with twelve brothers and imperial envoy Xu Jin.

The prosperity and wealth of the capital city is far from comparable to the cold and barren land of Mobei.

As soon as Su Ran entered the capital, she felt the enthusiasm of the people.

Every young lady, girl, young woman, and nymphomaniac was all dressed up, either with heavy makeup or a touch of makeup. In short, they all showed what they thought was the most beautiful and feminine side.

Su Ran rode on a tall horse and rode alongside the imperial envoy Xu Jin.

Although no one had ever seen him before, people had long heard of this great hero who made contributions to Northern Xinjiang.

Leading a mere hundred men under his command to kill nearly ten thousand enemies in one night, what kind of impressive achievement is this?
In the minds of the people in the capital, Su Ran has become synonymous with God of War.

Seeing that the real person was so handsome and unreal, these girls lost their reserve in an instant.

The new emperor of the Daqing Dynasty, Emperor Qingyong, had long been curious about who this young man who had killed nearly ten thousand enemies for him was. Therefore, Su Ran was summoned to the Golden Palace by him as soon as he arrived in the capital.

Of course, the one who went to the palace together was the imperial envoy for this trip to Northern Xinjiang, Xu Jin, a doctor in the Ministry of War.

At this time, Su Ran had taken off the bloody clothes and changed into an ordinary blue gown.

With sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a nose that looks like a hanging gallbladder, and a tall and straight figure standing in the court hall, he looks so outstanding.

Xu Jin, a doctor in the Ministry of War, had just entered the palace and made a detailed statement to Emperor Qingyong about what he had silently organized countless times in his heart.

The key point is naturally that Su Ran, Emperor Yong of Ming Qing Dynasty, made another great contribution to the Da Qing Dynasty halfway.

When the courtiers heard about this, they were all shocked.

When Emperor Qingyong learned about this incident, he was shocked and also frightened.

However, he was the helmsman of the Daqing Dynasty after all. Although he had just ascended the throne, he had gone through many storms before he could sit on the throne of the emperor.

Therefore, when the discussion among the ministers subsided a little, he immediately said: "Everyone, I am very pleased that Su Ran has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats for our Daqing Dynasty. How do you think I should reward him?"

After speaking, Emperor Qingyong glanced at the ministers, and finally turned his attention to Tong Guobin, Minister of War, seemingly unintentionally.

When Tong Guobin saw this, he immediately stood up with understanding.

"Su Ran has made outstanding military exploits in northern Xinjiang. On his way back to Beijing, he has broken down the conspiracy of the remnants of the vassal king. It is really a blessing for your majesty and a blessing for the Daqing Dynasty. I thought that your majesty should be entrusted with an important task. It just so happened that the deputy commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion had If there is a vacancy, I think you can let Su Ran take up a post in the Xiaoqi Camp."

As soon as he said this, Emperor Qingyong nodded silently. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with the double act between Tong Guobin and himself.

However, as soon as Tong Guobin finished speaking, Left Prime Minister Feng Bingyuan immediately raised objections.

"The old minister disagrees with Tong Shangshu's suggestion. As far as I know, Su Ran was only a general of the seventh rank when he was at the border, and the deputy commander of Xiaoqiying was a fourth-rank Beijing official. I think such a promotion is not suitable for our Daqing Dynasty. Official system."

As soon as Feng Bingyuan said these words, Emperor Qingyong's face immediately darkened.

However, after all, the other party was a veteran of the two dynasties, so he still had to give him face. He looked at the other courtiers silently, and a smile appeared on Emperor Qingyong's face.

"Since Prime Minister Feng said this, there must be a better arrangement. You might as well tell me and let me and all my ministers listen."

Feng Bingyuan was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Su Ran beside him.

"Su Ran has indeed made great contributions, but I think he is still very young and will have many opportunities to make contributions in the future, so I think it is more appropriate for him to be a fourth-class guard from the fifth grade." After hearing this, Su Ran felt already in his heart Some displeased.

Demoted from the fourth grade to the fifth grade, what kind of grudge does this old guy Feng Bingyuan have against him?Could it be that he wanted to put someone in the position of deputy commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion?

While Su Ran was thinking about this, Right Minister Fan Tingyu, who had been silent until now, spoke.

"Your Majesty, I think that Feng Xiang's words are wrong. Now that the court is employing people, they will be rewarded for their meritorious service. If they make great achievements, they will be rewarded heavily. If they stick to the rules, those who should be rewarded will not be rewarded heavily. The rewards and punishments are unclear. Wouldn’t that chill people’s hearts?”

Fan Tingyu's words just revealed the thoughts of all the generals, and many generals immediately echoed them.

When Emperor Qingyong saw this, he stroked his beard and smiled and said: "I also mean the same thing. Okay, let's just follow Fan Xiang's wishes. Su Ran accepts the title."

Seeing this, Su Ran immediately saluted Emperor Qingyong.

Emperor Qingyong nodded at him: "Su Ran has made great achievements in killing the enemy and disrupting the attempts of the rebel forces to collude. You have made outstanding achievements. I will make you the deputy commander of the fourth-grade Xiaoqi battalion and reward you with a palace."

After listening to Emperor Qingyong's decree, Su Ran thanked him and said, "I, Su Ran, would like to thank your majesty for your kindness. Long live my emperor."

After this reward, the morning court dispersed.

However, Emperor Qingyong left Su Ran alone.

In the South Study Room, the new emperor of the Daqing Dynasty looked at the deputy commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion whom he had just appointed, with no concealment of admiration on his face.

While reviewing the memorial, Emperor Qingyong raised his head and said, "I heard that you are from Yangzhou? Are there any relatives at home?"

When Su Ran heard this, his expression suddenly became sad: "Your Majesty, I grew up in Yangzhou when I was a child, but I was an orphan since I was a child. I grew up eating the food of hundreds of families, and I don't have many relatives."

After Emperor Qingyong received the affirmative answer, all the doubts in his heart suddenly dissipated.

Such a great general without any background, isn't that what he lacks now?
All the old officials in the court are relying on their old ones to sell their old ones.

In this case, I will use this sharp knife to dampen your spirit.

Thinking of this, Emperor Qingyong nodded slightly: "That's fine. If you don't have any relatives, you won't have so much to worry about. From now on, if you have anything to do, just come to me and treat me as your relatives. What's the matter? I will decide for you."

After hearing these words, Su Ran felt moved in her heart.

The next moment, he said to Emperor Qingyong: "Su Ran thanked His Majesty for your kindness, but if you have an assignment, you will not hesitate to do so."

Emperor Qingyong saw this and put down the pen in his hand.

"With your words, it seems that I have not hired the wrong person. In fact, according to my intention, I want to give you a direct title of counselor, but you saw it just now in Chao Shang, there are still voices of opposition, Xiaoqi Camp Although the Deputy Chief of Staff is only a fourth-grade officer, don’t worry, as long as you work hard, no one can bury your talents."

Su Ran could not have imagined that a mere soldier guarding the border could be so valued by the Emperor of Daqing Dynasty.

At that moment, he already had a calculation in his heart, as long as you are not a foolish king, I, Su Ran, will keep your country stable.

Of course, Su Ran also knows that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. At present, Emperor Qingyong's foundation is not stable, and he is still useful to him, so there is no danger for the time being. But once the world is at peace, Emperor Qingyong will be able to completely control the situation of the court. When the time comes, he may see himself in a different light.

However, Emperor Qingyong didn't know these thoughts. In his eyes, Su Ran was just a sharp knife.

He wanted to use this knife to break through the many barriers that his father, Emperor Qingkang, had set up for him, and truly govern the country according to his own ideas.
