    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    No one spoke, everyone present was shocked by Zhao Zhen's last tone.  Indeed, Liang FengĄŻs contribution can be described as breaking a new frontier, and no reward can be exaggerated!

    "I have always believed that Liang Feng's ambitions are not small, and cannot be achieved by high-ranking officials and generous salaries. It is a wise move for him to be so secretive, and it is also a blessing for the official family!"

    It was Qian Weiyan who broke the dull situation and came out to say something reasonable.  Although he is particularly fond of high-ranking officials and generous salaries, he is very accurate in judging people and his evaluations are spot on.  At Liang Feng's age, he has made such a great contribution.  If he couldn't hold his tail between his legs, he would have been drowned in saliva.  Are these four words a joke?  Common to both ancient and modern times!

    "This is not a reason." Zhao Zhen shook his head and said decisively: "He is hiding something because he is afraid that I will be jealous, but can I feel at ease? If I don't give him an explanation, it can't be justified. What do you think of the reward? Title, official position, salary  , will be greatly rewarded!"

    Wang Zeng thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to persuade Zhao Zhen: "Liang Feng is young and can do such great things. Naturally, he will be a high-ranking minister of the official family and the future pillar of the imperial court. But if he is promoted too much now, I am afraid that he will  ItĄŻs harmful to him!Ą±

    "It's true, it's true. The king's words are reasonable. Officials should think twice." Even Xue Kui and others commented one after another.

    Zhao Zhenwu felt indignant: "You are blocking me like this, are you afraid that he will be younger than you?"

    "I really can't bear the official's words. We have no selfish motives in promoting talents for the country. I say this for his own good. Moreover, I think that even if the official insists on promoting him, he may not be willing to accept it.  I know something about Liang Feng's temper. He is really not the kind of person who seeks fame and gain. If the officials still feel bad about it, it is better to let him go to an important and inconspicuous position and cultivate him more. When he has enough qualifications,  ItĄŻs impossible to overuse the government officials!Ą±

    Wang Zeng's words were effective. Zhao Zhen calmed down and thought about it carefully. He nodded and said: "This is the only way. However, we must not treat him badly in terms of money and silk. We still have to give him a big reward. I will call him in another day. Let's talk about it." After that, he waved to dismiss the meeting.

    The next day Liang Feng entered the palace (well, not a eunuch. He didnĄŻt have one, and neither did I). Zhao Zhen clasped his hands with him: Ą°IĄŻm sorry, you took the most credit, but I kept neglecting it and wronged you!Ą±

    He was a little confused: "What's going on?"

    "Oh. By the way, I haven't shown this to you yet!" Zhao Zhen quickly waved his hand, and Li Shibin hurriedly handed him the memorial letter asking for merit.  He wisely retreated and left the two of them alone.

    Liang Feng read ten lines at a glance, stared at the paper for a few times, raised his head and said with a smile: "Well, how big a deal do I think it is? Before I left, I consulted with them for a few days. These old comrades in arms!  , IĄŻm being polite, I wrote this specifically, itĄŻs embarrassing! ItĄŻs not serious, itĄŻs not serious!Ą± He shook his head repeatedly to express his refusal.

    The more he did this, the more regretful Zhao Zhen became: "Don't go out with me either. All the gentlemen outside have read this letter. I want to give you a big thumbs up, but they say you have great ambitions. I don't care about rewards.  Then tell me what you want. If you want it, I will give it to you!"

    "Shh, you are an official. The most taboo thing is to pat your chest casually. We are honest and dare not stretch out our hands. If you encounter a 250-year-old who opens his mouth and wants half of your kingdom, what should you do? Kill him and silence him?"

    Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment by what he said. Then he saw the evil smile on this guy's face and couldn't help but curse: "You are really lazy. Just by saying this, I can kill your whole family!"

    Liang Feng felt happy in his heart. Kill my whole family?  Wouldn't that involve trapping your eldest sister?  But he said: "Okay, let's do it. Let's make it even. I don't want it anymore, and you won't kill it."

    "That's not possible, I'm just joking. Although I can't completely reward you based on merit, it doesn't make sense that I don't praise you. If the truth comes out in the future, how will you face the world? Let's do this. You two ladies, I will give you a royal decree;  IĄŻll give you 200,000 yuan, a mansion, um, and, and,Ą± he said while pondering what else he needed to add.

    "I accept the imperial edict and don't want the rest." Liang Feng waved his hand resolutely.

    "Why?" Zhao Zhen was stunned.

    "My two wives are good, and they deserve your royal title. You also called my wife, Mrs. Xie, Xiao Chang, sister. (Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen's face turned red, but it was filled with the sweetness of the memory), but what?  , forget about other rewards. You also know that I donĄŻt have much money, and I canĄŻt even sweep the house. ItĄŻs so tiring. ItĄŻs more comfortable to live like this. The most important thing is (he became sad), one general can accomplish a thousand things  Bones are withered, let us regain Pingxia and gain the northwest? land.  But I donĄŻt know how many orphans and widows there are in the world, and how many families are separated from each other.  They are the heroes of the imperial court!  If I accept your money, I will never be able to sleep again!  "

    Zhao Zhen stared at him: "What are you doing so much for?"

    "For the sake of my Chinese blood and the dreams of my ancestors, I want a new Song Dynasty to be prosperous and strong!" Liang Feng said lightly.  He really thought so and did so.

    "Well, I won't advise you anymore, but it's necessary. I don't want 200,000, but 50,000. I must accept 50,000."

    "Well, okay!" The person who gave the gift insisted, and the person who received the gift reluctantly accepted.

    "In addition, in addition to you being the official in charge of the imperial court, the official Zhitianzhangge, the official Youjianyi, and the secretary Jiancheng, I will still serve as the imperial supervisor and serve you as usual!" Zhao Zhen said firmly.

    "Damn it, I really got it this time, I got so many titles at once!" Liang Feng said with a smile: "But I can't do it. I'm just a follower to you. Do you still remember, back then, we  We both agreed, but I donĄŻt have the patience to bow and salute you every day.Ą±

    Zhao Zhen said hurriedly: "Don't, I didn't ask you to come here every day, pass orders when there is something, and discuss it openly and openly. What's going on now? You're sneaking around every day. I don't dare to say that the ideas you come up with are yours.  ItĄŻs a trivial matter to bury your merits, but itĄŻs a serious matter to delay important matters of the court! Just accept it, okay? I promise, itĄŻs not a big matter that wonĄŻt come to you!Ą±

    Seeing Zhao Zhen begging like this, Liang Feng finally agreed without hesitation.  Zhao Zhen will hold a briefing session later.  Saying hello to a small group and telling everyone that even though Liang Feng was promoted so quickly, in fact he has made great contributions, this is all aggrieved.

    After the price was negotiated, Liang Feng originally wanted to tell him about another thing, but then he thought about it.  There is no news about such a big event yet.  He always has to wait until he knows it hurts before he decides to change.  I just couldn't bear to say anything.

    As expected, in early September, the "Northwest News" spread all over the city.  ItĄŻs necessary, can we not hurry up?  Here's how Northwest works now.  Generally, both sides of the page take care of themselves, but when encountering a major issue that needs to affect the court situation, the party who instigates it will write the manuscript, and then it will be delivered quickly through the inn, at least ten days earlier than ordinary news.  The other party received the manuscript and immediately typed it and printed it.

    This gives the world an illusion.  It seems that "Northwest" is too fast and can appear in both the northwest and the capital at the same time.

    The headline on the front page of this issue of the newspaper is shocking: There is a shortage of more than half of the rewards for the northwest soldiers.  This kind of deduction is rare in the world.  The main writer of the news is Monk Zhongshu. This guy has been hanging around in the army and is familiar with everyone in the army.  Because he can be regarded as Liang Feng's spokesperson for staying in the northwest.

    He went deep into the field, military camps, and border fortresses to conduct interviews one by one.  Investigate one by one.  The tear-jerking story of the soldiers at the border who shed blood, sweat and tears is full of energy and energy.  So-and-so's mother was born in a poor family and her son was young, but he died in the Pingxia War, and the pension he received in the end was only eight dollars; so-and-so fought bravely, charged into battle, and had his arms and legs chopped off alive, and finally received a pension and reward.  ItĄŻs only twenty-five guan in total. Who else is there?

    What is the most tear-inducing topic?  The hero is always short-tempered and the son-daughter is long-lasting.

    The people of the Song Dynasty are enjoying these peaceful years.  He also sent a large number of children to the country.  How many rich families are there?  ArenĄŻt all ordinary people unlucky?  Now when I read the newspaper, naturally people share this sentiment and reason, and there are many discussions.  A climate gradually formed, exposing the dark side of the court!

    "What's going on? Is it true? Tell me, is it true?"

    It was the first time that Zhao Zhen lost the majesty of a monarch, and it was also the first time that he roared like a lion.  In an instant, the civil and military officials in the court were as silent as cicadas, and their faces were expressionless.

    Wang Zeng was also extremely angry. He withheld military pay and pretended to receive rewards. He knew that old habits are hard to change.  The reason why there has been no attack is because as a prime minister, what you want is to reconcile yin and yang and push the machine of the court forward.  Occasionally there are some discordant notes, and it is difficult for him to take action because the machine of the Song Dynasty is too complicated. He does not have the final say in financial management, justice, and the army alone.  And in the past, it was just some corruption that was not eye-catching, and it could be stopped with a few clicks and a few knocks.  But I didn't expect that these people's attacks were so dark this time. More than 7 million of them, more than half of them flowed into the black hole.  Why is Wang Zengqing so embarrassed?

    Unable to wait for everyone to express their stance, Zhao Zhen shouted angrily again: "Check, check thoroughly!"

    Xue Kui boldly stepped out of the queue and bowed: "I am waiting for the order, please appoint a leader!"

    Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment. In such a big case, everyone in the court is suspected. What should we do?  These seemingly loyal and good ministers are colluding so collusively under my nose. Who else is safe?

    He suddenly thought of Liang Feng.  If there were still?The one person you can completely rely on is him.

    "Is Liang Qing here?" Zhao Zhen asked.  Today is the day when Liang Feng was appointed to the court for the first time.

    "I'm here!" Liang Feng's voice came from three rows behind.

    "You will lead a thorough investigation into the case of insufficient rewards and corruption, but if necessary, I will report it to you!" After all, Zhao Zhen has been the emperor for several years, and his political acumen has been constantly enriched.  Special discount means that it can be discussed secretly.

    "I accept the decree!"

    In the northwest land, Han Qi was shaking his head and smiling.

    Before the incident, he sent a secret message to Liang Feng in the "Northwest" newspaper to talk specifically about the incident.  The reply received only a seven-word curse: "Where are the idiots, the losers, and the bald ladles?"

    ThatĄŻs what Yang Wenguang and Di Qing saw when they rushed into the tent!  (To be continued.)
