Chapter 622

The Manchu courtiers knew that this battle could be won so easily, and the loss of the court was the smallest. It was the efforts of hundreds of cooperation,

After the war, the role of the hundred schools was suddenly raised to a new height. Among the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, there was gradually the voice of other hundred schools. It was no longer the words of the Confucian family. This was what Li Shimin wanted to see. After all, checks and balances went deep into the bone marrow of each generation of emperors.

Of course, Li Shimin did not want to shake Confucianism. After all, ruling the country still depends on Confucianism, but there was no voice of resistance to other theories.

"Of course, Li Aiqing should be counted as the first person in this war. Li Aiqing, regardless of his age, can only win this war by coordinating the whole army." Li Shimin solemnly said to Li Jing.

Li Jing hurriedly stepped out and said, "it's my honor. Fortunately, I have lived up to your Majesty's trust."

"Li Aiqing worked hard and made great contributions to the country, worshipped the book and the right servant and shot, and became the Duke of the country," Li Shimin said solemnly.

The courtiers couldn't help looking at Li Jing with envy. Being a general is the highest honor of being a courtier. Now Li Jing is the first to do it, but Li Jing's credit is indeed the first in the Tang Dynasty. It's also worthy of such treatment. "

Li Jing was immediately flattered and quickly bowed down and said, "thank you for your love. I'm old. I've already felt unable to support the western expedition. I'm really unable to deal with the government. The minister is really powerless."

Unexpectedly, Li Jing turned down the position of Shangshu's right servant. Even if Li Shimin repeatedly invited, Li Jing resolutely refused.

Finally, Li Shimin said reluctantly, "in that case, Li Aiqing will take the post of national Duke first, take charge of the recruit plan and prepare for the Military Academy for the time being."

"Thank you, your majesty!" Li Jing replied.

This is probably the best result. In this way, Li Jing can be said to have separated from the barracks and no longer command the army. The rumor of natural rebellion has been broken. Li Jing has also got rid of the restriction of high position. Everyone knows that Li Jing will no longer lead the army and fight, but the title of Duke of Wei is enough to enjoy his old age.

At the beginning, the important officials who followed Li Shimin to fight in the north and south, saw Li Jing retreat, and everyone's heart seemed to fall heavily on the ground,

The cunning rabbit dies and the running dog cooks! This is not a joke, but a bloody tragedy!

Few of the founding heroes of the past dynasties can get a good end, and Li Jing retreated, creating a good end for the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty, which gave other important officials a long sigh of relief. Of course, there is Li Jing's knowledge and, of course, it has a great relationship with Li Shimin's mind.

Even Merton couldn't help sighing that this is the best era, whether for others or Mohists.

The atmosphere of the whole court was suddenly light. Both the rewarded generals and the envious Wen ministers couldn't help but show a relaxed smile.

"Hou Junji! Seal the governor of Chenzhou and the Duke of Chen." Li Shimin continued to seal the reward.

During the western expedition to Tuyuhun, Hou Junji took the most difficult South Road, and finally won a complete victory. He deserved the second credit.

"Thank you, your majesty!" Hou Junji said with a rare smile.

"Cheng Zhijie......" Li Shimin said again.

Cheng Yaojin went on an expedition of 800 miles into the vast sea, and his head returned from ambush. His credit ranked third. If he had not been ambushed and lost soldiers, his credit would have gone further.

However, Cheng Yaojin was particularly satisfied. He bowed with a happy face and said, "thank you, your majesty."

Next, Li daozong, Li Daliang, and so on, won many awards one by one, of which Su dingfang was the most prominent.

Originally, Su dingfang was just a logistics officer. At Merton's suggestion, he formed an efficient transportation team, commanded 8000 wounded soldiers and rescued 30000 troops of Li daoyan. It can be said that this war was brilliant, and he was directly promoted to three levels, ranking as the general of the 16th guard.

"Firearm supervisor Merton!" after Li Shimin rewarded all the generals, it was his turn to wait for Merton.

"Merton led the firearm supervisor Lianke Tuyuhun three fort, accurately predicted the food day of Tiangou, helped the army win with gunpowder, used mathematics to find the enemy's trace, made repeated contributions, rode 30 horses to attack the enemy and rescue the left leader guard..."

Li Shimin read Merton's merits one by one, and all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help taking a breath. The merits of others were one or two, and Merton was one by one. Moreover, if each one was put on an ordinary general, it would have been a great achievement, and Merton was completed by one, and it's not over yet.

Li Shimin took a deep look at Merton and continued: "offer a compass to help Cheng Aiqing chase down Fu Yun and return with great victory. After the flood in Shandong, Mo Aiqing stayed in Tuyuhun to raise enough food and salaries for the imperial court."

After reading Merton's credit, Li Shimin was silent. Even a group of civil servants who hated the Mohist school had to admit that Merton played an irreplaceable role in this war, because Merton's existence, wherever Merton participated, made dazzling achievements.

"Mojiazi!"

Many dignitaries could not help but re-examine Merton in their hearts. All the time, people thought that they looked up to Merton, but found that they still made the mistake of contempt. As long as they gave enough platform to the Mohists, they were not surprised at how much the boy did.

Merton immediately showed a simple and honest smile and said shyly, "Wei Chen just made a little effort and relied on the trust of other generals to get a little credit from the boy."

When Li Shimin saw Merton's smile, he couldn't help humming, and the boy's tail began to tilt up again.

"If you attack, you will be rewarded. I don't care about merits and demerits. I specially ordered Mo Aiqing to be promoted to the sixth grade and continue to command the firearms prison." Li Shimin said angrily.

"From the six grades." Merton couldn't help but curl his lips and despise Li Shimin's stinginess. His seven grade sacrifice is already a wonderful work. It's also not qualified to sacrifice from the six grades. Didn't you see that Kong Yingda's Imperial College sacrifice is the official position of the five grades.

Gao Shilian felt puzzled and looked at Li Shimin. He went directly to Lanzhou to stabilize the overall situation of the northwest on the one hand, and the Minister of officials on the other hand. He verified the credit of officers and men at all levels in the army nearby. According to the credit Book drawn up by him, Merton should be promoted two levels in a row, which is the sixth grade. Rao is so, which is the result of suppressing Merton.

The officials of the Manchu Dynasty moved in their hearts. According to Merton's credit, even upgrading one level is not enough to reward Merton's credit. There must be more.

"Marry Princess Changle!" Li Shimin said word by word, biting his teeth.

The ministers suddenly realized that it was a great honor to marry Princess Changle, which means that Li Shimin publicly admitted the marriage in the court hall. In this way, Merton's official position of only one level was reasonably explained.

"Thank you, your majesty!" Merton didn't expect that Li Shimin should be so dishonest and give a reward for the good things he promised before, but he had to take it. After all, for him, no amount of reward is as important as admitting his marriage with Changle.

"Congratulations on your choosing another good son-in-law."

"Congratulations, Mo sacrifice."

"Mo sacrificial wine and Princess Changle are really men's talents and women's looks. They are a match made in heaven."

For a moment, the whole Tai Chi hall was filled with congratulations.

Only two parties were dissatisfied. Merton despised Li Shimin's stinginess. Li Shimin didn't like Merton. As soon as the boy entered the Changle palace, he had a secret meeting with Changle for half an hour. If he didn't get married again, I'm afraid his daughter's reputation would be lost.

"The merit of other officers and men will be distributed as usual, and those who make meritorious service will be selected first after the preparation of the military academy!" Li Shimin waved a big hand

At this point, the reward for merit officially ended.
