Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 450
Li Jing smiled and said: "You are wrong, it is only reasonable to treat guests with the fish you caught, and we have caught several kinds of fish, so we can eat them in different ways."

Speaking of which, Li Jing stood up, handed the fishing rod to Xiao Jiu, and said, "Put away the fishing rod, and come back to fish when I have time."

Zhu Youjian also stood up and said with a smile: "If you want to fish, don't forget to call me. Next time, let's continue to compare and see who catches more fish."

"Okay!" Li Jing smiled and nodded.

Turning around and patting Xiao Wu on the shoulder lightly, Li Jing smiled and said, "Call your Uncle Erhu and drink with me tonight, and I will reward you all."

Xiao Wu was overjoyed: "I'll call Uncle Er Hu right now."

After walking a few steps, Xiao Wu suddenly stopped and said, "When will you meet Huang Taiji's wife?"

Li Jing waved his hand: "Tomorrow, I guess they have suffered a lot during this journey, so let them rest for a night. By the way, send Huang Taiji's son to his mother, and arrange two experienced women to take a look , don’t let the child have problems.”

Xiao Wu nodded and went to make arrangements.

Seeing the guards carrying the fish baskets to leave, Li Jing's heart moved, and he suddenly said: "Pick two big fish and give them to Empress Yi'an, and say that the emperor caught them, please Empress Yi'an to taste."

Zhu Youjian laughed and said: "Brother Li has a heart, but I forgot that the emperor's wife lives in Xiyuan."

Li Jing said with a smile: "We came to Xiyuan, Empress Yi'an couldn't possibly not know about it, it's not convenient for us to see her, so it's our best to send some things over there."

Zhu Youjian nodded with a smile.

The dinner in the evening was eaten in Dongnuange, and the food was very rich.

There was no other way, although Li Jing was very frugal, but Chen Erhu and Xiao Wu had huge appetites, and Li Jing couldn't just cook a few fish and send them away.

When Chen Erhu and Xiao Wu were full, Li Jing poured them a glass of wine, then raised his glass and said with a smile: "Brother Erhu and Xiao Wu have made extraordinary achievements this time. Come, let me toast you."

"Hehe, it's all about the elder brother's good command and scheduling. The brothers are just doing a little bit of work, and don't dare to take credit for this." Chen Erhu raised his glass and laughed.

Li Jing waved his hand: "You guys fought the battle, and you deserve the credit. Don't put a lot of credit on my face. It's just that Brother Erhu made such a great contribution, but brother can't let you get the limelight. I hope brother can't be blamed."

"Brother, what are you talking about, the commando is the secret weapon of your brother, how can you let the world know?" Chen Erhu asked hurriedly.

Li Jingjing nodded: "It's good that brother can understand, tell me, what reward do you want?"

Chen Erhu smiled and said, "Brother, I can get whatever I want, and what kind of rewards do I need? Brother, let's keep the money to reward brothers!"

Li Jing smiled: "Brothers want rewards, and you should too."

After a pause, Li Jing continued: "Due to the limited number of commandos, your rank has always been several levels lower than others. In a few days, I will ask the Military and Political Department to raise your rank, so that Duhu will be able to I won't talk about your level anymore."

"Hey, my brother dared to bluff only because his rank is higher than mine. When I am on the same level as him, he will have nothing to say." Chen Erhu laughed.

Li Jing smiled, raised his glass to touch Chen Erhu, and drank it down in one gulp.

Filling his own wine glass, Li Jing held up the wine glass and smiled at Xiao Wu: "This time you have had a good time with Uncle Erhu, tell me, what do you want to do in the future?"

Xiao Wu turned to look at Xiao Jiu and said in a low voice, "I still want to be your bodyguard by your side."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiu heard it with the tips of her ears, and rushed to Xiao Wu's side and shouted loudly: "Little Wu brother, you are not allowed to take my seat."

Xiao Wu curled her lips: "What is your seat? If I go to Liaodong, can this seat be your turn?"I just let you work for two days temporarily, why are you still bullying and not paying back? "

Seeing the two brothers arguing, Li Jing waved his hands with a smile and said, "Stop arguing, this is just a job of serving people, what are you doing?"

Xiao Jiu hurriedly said: "Little Fifth Brother has done a great job this time, wouldn't godfather let him be the head of the bodyguard?"

Li Jing pointed Xiaojiu with his finger and said with a smile: "You all know that he has made great achievements, so why are you arguing with him?"

Then he turned to look at Xiao Wu: "Do you still remember what I said before? If you are still my bodyguard, why would I send you to Liaodong?"

Xiao Wu was speechless immediately after hearing this.

Seeing that Xiaowu remained silent, Li Jing continued: "After your Uncle Zhuzi left, I helped him take care of the garrison in the capital. You will go to the garrison tomorrow as a deputy and help me share it. Wait for your Uncle Zhuzi to come back." , I will ask the Military and Political Department to re-appoint you."

Xiao Wu let out a soft oh when he heard the words.

Seeing Xiao Wu's reluctance, Chen Erhu suddenly said: "Brother, why don't you give me Xiao Wu, I think Xiao Wu is a good seed, let him be my assistant."

Li Jing shook his head: "Xiao Wu's temperament is not very stable yet, I want him to practice by Zhuzi's side for a period of time, and then let him out after his character stabilizes."

Chen Erhu looked at Xiao Wu, chuckled and said, "Brother, Xiao Wu's temperament really needs to be tempered, but in my opinion, the commando team can train people better. In addition, let Xiao Wu stay in the commando team for a while." It will be more convenient for you to transfer to another unit.”

"En..." Li Jing pondered for a while, then nodded slightly.

After thinking for a while, Li Jing said: "The commando team has fewer members. You can select another group from the Jishi Army and expand it to 3000. After selection, take the team members to the south for training for a period of time to let them adapt to the south. climate."

Chen Erhu was surprised and said: "Brother, this is going to..."

Li Jing waved and stopped Chen Erhu's words: "First train the team well."

Chen Erhu nodded slightly.

Seeing that Li Jing and Chen Erhu had finished talking about serious matters, Zhu Youjian raised his wine glass and said, "The two generals have made extraordinary achievements this time, and I would like to toast you as well."

Chen Erhu and Xiao Wu hurriedly picked up their wine glasses: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Youjian drank it down in a gulp, and then said with a smile, "Eastern captives have rebelled since the Wanli period, and my generation has gone through four dynasties. Once the dynasty is settled today, I am worthy of my ancestors."

Speaking of which, Zhu Youjian filled up the wine, raised it to Li Jing and said, "Brother Li, I would like to toast you even more. Without you, I and those mediocre courtiers in the court would never be able to pacify Liaodong. You are the minister of my humerus of Daming. Your loyalty to Daming can be learned from day to day, and you treat me like a brother. I have nothing to say. I can only offer you a glass of wine. I hope you will continue to work hard to lead Daming to rejuvenate and open up for Daming. Expansion of territory."

Li Jing raised his glass and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, without your support, Li Jing's affairs would not have been so smooth. I hope that our monarchs and ministers will work together for Zhongxing Daming."

As he said, he raised his glass and touched Zhu Youjian lightly, then drank it down in one gulp.

The so-called knowing the elegant meaning by hearing the strings, Zhu Youjian was very happy, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Brother Li, thank you!"

After all, drink up the wine in the glass.

Chen Erhu and Xiao Wu smiled slightly when they saw each other, and raised a glass to accompany them.

Everyone is a discerning person, and Zhu Youjian did not play any role in the pacification of Liaodong.

But what Li Jing said just now undoubtedly meant that Zhu Youjian was the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and all his courtiers including Li Jing, and the achievements made by the courtiers would naturally be credited to him as a leader.

This is tantamount to admitting that Zhu Youjian contributed to the pacification of Liaodong, and with Li Jing's words as circumstantial evidence, historians would never dare to obliterate Zhu Youjian's credit.

As an emperor, Zhu Youjian's biggest pursuit is to be able to record in the history books that he is a master of ZTE and a wise king.Zhu Youjian is naturally grateful to Li Jing for such a big event as the pacification of Liaodong.

Putting down his wine glass, Zhu Youjian turned his head and said to Xiao Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, you send someone to Kunning Palace to invite the empress, the prince and the princes, and I will ask the queen, the prince and the prince to respect Brother Li and the two generals." liquor."

Li Jing was startled when he heard the words, and then he waved his hands and smiled: "Your Majesty, today is not a formal celebration, I think it's better not to disturb the empress, and when Brother Wenzhao and Zhuzi triumphantly return to class, we will officially celebrate the victory, and then let the soldiers take a look at the beauty of the mother of the country." .”

Zhu Youjian heard the words, pondered for a while and smiled and said: "Alright, then don't let the queen come over, let the prince come over, the son-in-law toasts the father-in-law, you can't refuse, right?"

Zhu Youjian moved out Li Jing's identity as the prince's father-in-law. Li Jing was not good but Zhu Youjian wanted it, and immediately smiled and said: "Then let the prince come over."

Seeing that Li Jing agreed, Xiao Jiu turned around and went out to order two young eunuchs to send a message to Kunning Palace.

When Queen Zhou got the news, she didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly ordered several eunuchs and maids to bring the prince to Qianqing Palace.

At that time, the crown prince was not yet ten years old, so Li Jing would not let him drink, but just asked him to pour a glass of wine for himself, Chen Erhu and Xiao Wu, as a token of his affection.

Seeing that Zhu Cihong's chubby appearance was extremely cute, Li Jing touched Zhu Cihong's head and said with a smile, "I'll find you a kid to play with in a few days, but you can't be so fat, you should pay attention to exercise."

Zhu Cihong's face was full of joy when he heard the words, and he clapped his hands and said, "Finally someone can play with me, thank you, Lord Guo."

Li Jing smiled: "Hehe, I'm drinking with your father, you feel uncomfortable staying here, go back to the palace. Be careful on the road, don't fall."

"Thank you, Lord Guo." Zhu Cihong saluted.

Li Jing smiled and waved his hand.

When Zhu Cihong went out, Li Jing smiled and said to Zhu Youjian: "The prince is getting more and more sensible, the empress is good at teaching her son."

Zhu Youjian smiled, held up his wine glass and said, "It's time for the prince to go to school. Does Brother Li have any suitable candidates for the prince to be his teacher?"

Li Jing thought for a while and said, "Let Kong Zhenyun be the prince's tutor. Well, Zhang Tongchang is very knowledgeable. Let him be Kong Zhenyun's assistant."

Zhu Youjian nodded: "I will ask the prince to apprentice as a teacher in another day."

After thinking about it, Zhu Youjian continued: "After An Guo enters Beijing, do we have to hire a teacher for him, why not let him study with the crown prince?"

Li Jing shook his head: "An Guo is no better than a prince, and he cannot enjoy privileges just because he is my son. I plan to let him study in the school like ordinary people."

Seeing Li Jing's firm attitude, Zhu Youjian nodded silently.

Smiling, Li Jing raised his glass and said, "Don't worry about the children's business. I'm happy today. Let's drink."

Zhu Youjian nodded with a smile.
