Wu Sangui, the family of Jiangmen, the family power is deeply rooted in the court and the army, and in his hands he holds the strongest and last 30,000 Guanning iron cavalry in the Ming Dynasty, and he sticks to the only territory outside the Ming Pass, the lonely city of Ningyuan!

The Qing army came to attack the month before, and Wu Sangui Lik Dolgon had more than ten troops, and fought a rare victory in the Ming Dynasty in several years, which made the government and the opposition excited.

Let's ask, what should the court reward him for such great achievements and power?

The military officials in the audience were thinking about this problem, and Wu Sangui, who was on the stage, was also thinking about this problem, before he entered Beijing, he was nervous, and he was deeply afraid that Emperor Chongzhen would enter the customs with a surprise attack by the Qing army in order to restrain him, and he would be guilty of negligence.

Thinking about Ning Yuan's great merit, at most he will atone for his sins but it will not be a big deal, and when he suffers from gains and losses, he went to visit Chang Yu and got a sentence, this trip is worry-free, and his heart is safe, knowing that Emperor Chongzhen will not use the responsibility of negligence to play the topic, after all, the court is not the emperor's hall, the cabinet ministers think more, and he has many relationships in the court, and more importantly, Emperor Chongzhen does not have the strength to turn his face with him at once.

In addition, I also kept a hand for backup, so I ...... Maybe the gates of the Pillar Kingdom will still be open to him.

"Minister, Wu Sangui will detain the emperor" Wu Sangui knelt down in front of Emperor Chongzhen after taking the stage, and Emperor Chongzhen got up and hugged his arm: "Uncle Chang (Wu Sangui) You can always surprise me!" ”

"Your Majesty, ...... minister" Wu Sangui was stunned and wanted to say something, but saw Emperor Chongzhen waving his hand, going to listen to Feng, and nodded to Wang Chenen as he spoke.

"Wu Sangui, Jia Guozhu, Prince Taifu".

Whew, Wu Sangui of Taishan and the civil and military officials under the stage couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and sure enough, they were also ranked among the national pillars. However, Chang Yu, who was standing on the sidelines of Taishan, frowned, because it was too unexpected for him.

After returning to Beijing, he entered the palace and had a deep chat with Emperor Chongzhen about the merits, and the spearhead was directed at Wu Sangui, whose strength must be slowly planned, and the merit could be offset by the responsibility of inspection, not suppressed or promoted, simply put, if you are not punished or rewarded, you should come to watch the ceremony now.

Emperor Chongzhen also thought so, but the cabinet didn't think so, and united the courtiers to put pressure on Emperor Chongzhen, for which Emperor Chongzhen also found a Chang Yu to hear the news, and Chang Yu supported Emperor Chongzhen at that time and let him bite tightly.

But right now, Wu Sangui is still ranked in the Pillar Kingdom.

What's going on?

It turned out that when Chongzhen left the palace early in the morning, he reminded him that things had changed, which made him a little mentally prepared for this.

And then what about the Pillar Kingdom......

Ah, and then there wasn't?

The hundred officials waited for a while, but saw that Wang Chengen didn't read anything again, and took the golden seal of the book and handed it to Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui is grateful, with mixed feelings in his heart, if there is no Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong, and Tang Tong are knighted in front, of course he is very happy to be in the pillar country, but now...... I always feel like something is missing.

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and both the civil and military forces were puzzled.

But Emperor Chongzhen on the stage didn't hear it, Li Banghua and Shi Kefa looked at each other and didn't say anything, Wang Chengen continued to read out the reward, Ma Ke, Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo took the stage in order, but although the four of them are also big guys, they don't have much gain, none of them entered the pillar country, and they didn't have a knighthood, only the military rank was awarded, which made several people very unhappy, but they also knew it, and they also knew it, and they also knew it, and they didn't have to build a reward.

After a reward, it was already noon, and Wang Chengen went to the edge of the platform: "The name is in front of the stage, and the emperor will personally award the medal."

Medal? The officials were confused again.

There are two kinds of medals, one is the Ming Military Merit Medal and the other is the Royal Medal of Honor.

All are made of pure gold, and the military parade ceremony is the highest medal of honor for the Ming Dynasty.

Awarded to generals or soldiers who are brave in battle and have made outstanding contributions to the Ming Dynasty.

And this time there are only eight pieces in total, and Wu Sangui, Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong, Li Yan, Hao Yongzhong, Wu Zhong, Tu Yuan, and Ji Jike are awarded.

This is obviously an unexpected joy, and the eight of them thanked them again and again, which attracted the envy of the others, and even the unhappiness in Wu Sangui's heart has gone a lot.

Seeing that it was noon, and the generals had also finished rewarding, I thought that the emperor was going to drive back to the palace, but who knew that Wang Chenen, who knew that Wang Chenen, who was on the stage, shouted again: "Chang Yu, the commander of the East Detective Factory, listens to the order."

Chang Yu was stunned, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Emperor Chongzhen, and the civil and military officials who were originally in turmoil in the audience also quieted down, isn't the emperor going to reward the little eunuch?

Everyone knows that in the past few months, Daming has been able to resist and not fall, all because of the little eunuch's power to turn the tide, except for him, no one is sure that there is no silver in the treasury, no soldiers in his hands, and he will not obey the order under the repeated attacks of the thief army and the Qing army, and he can still hold the capital without breaking.

In terms of merit, the little eunuch should be the biggest hero.

Although many people are not convinced and do not want to admit it, they are also well aware that this is a fact.

However, a eunuch cannot be an official, so what will the emperor reward him?

"Chang Yu supervised the army meritoriously, the emperor gave a mansion, gave the construction of a military memorial arch, and the four battalions under his command were changed to the East Factory Guard, which was the twenty-seventh pro-guard army."

Hold the grass!

The discussion in the audience reached the highest level today, and hundreds of civil and military officials shouted separately, which is too exaggerated.

It is nothing that the emperor gave the minister's mansion, even if it was given to the favored eunuch, after all, Chang Yu has merit, and it is not too much to reward the mansion.

But the latter two, there are more thoughts in it!

The military memorial arch has always been the emperor's imperial approval to build a large military general, but also mostly in the founding period, rare on weekdays, this ceremony, the imperial gift of Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong two is rare, at this time even to give a eunuch! There is no other way in all dynasties.

But the hundred officials also understand the mind of Emperor Chongzhen, Chang Yu is a eunuch and cannot be an official, but he does have military merits, so he built a military memorial arch.

And the ancestral rules didn't say that they couldn't build a military memorial arch for the eunuchs, so although the hundred officials felt that it was inappropriate, they couldn't find any excuse to oppose it.

However, it is obviously selfish to classify the four battalions under the command of Dongchang as the emperor's personal guards, and many people see the deep meaning.

Emperor Daming and pro-guard army 26 guards, the military power is directly under the emperor's jurisdiction, does not belong to and does not belong to the governor of the five armies, at this time Emperor Chongzhen wants to incorporate the four battalions under the command of the little eunuch into the 27th guard of the Dongchang Guard, it seems to be to collect the military power of the little eunuch, but in fact it is to give the military power.

The four battalions under Chang Yu's command were actually just to cultivate henchmen for self-protection at the beginning, and the world was so chaotic these days, no one around him dared to go far away, let alone go to oversee the army.

These henchmen are absolutely loyal to themselves, they can be used as escorts in normal times, they are also a strong force in wartime, and they can also intimidate those warlords when they oversee the army**.

To put it bluntly, it is one of his private troops.

But the imperial court will not allow a eunuch to have a private army!

It's just that because it was a very moment, the imperial court could only turn a blind eye, but now after returning to Beijing, some people have begun to chew their tongues and impeach them every day.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally trusts Chang Yu, and he also knows the importance of this army to him, otherwise you let him hang an empty seal and go down to supervise the army single-handedly, those arrogant and domineering warlords are vegetarians, who will shock.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen will never restrain Chang Yu, because that is tantamount to restraining himself, but he can't do it all the time, and he will not let go of being stared at.

So, he came up with such a way to form a new pro-guard army, Dongchang Guard, which is under the jurisdiction of Dongchang, this person can no longer point fingers, and it is normal for other yamen to take care of the pro-guards, such as Teng Xiang Siwei hanging under the Yamen of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

In this way, Chang Yu commanded the four battalions, not only justifiably, but also for the soldiers of the four battalions, originally they were at most temporary workers, no military status, no military rank, but now they are the emperor's own army.

In addition to being justifiable and commanding the four battalions, Chang Yu also has a certain authority to promote his subordinates, such as raising a general flag, promoting 100 households to 1,000 households, and there is no need to report to any yamen at all, self-sufficiency and self-sufficiency, of course, the commanders of the four battalions under his command have just been promoted to the rank of 1,000 households.

The emperor really favored the little eunuch, and now his subordinates are in charge of an army of the emperor's personal guards, and his position is more and more secure, and he is more and more unable to defeat him.

Hundreds of officials whispered endlessly, some people disdain, some people were shameless, some people secretly scolded, and some people felt that it was not an exaggeration for the little eunuch's great military exploits, and the emperor did not make a truly unacceptable reward, isn't it just a military memorial arch, at least the little eunuch did not learn Wei Zhongxian Jiansheng Temple, nor did he call it a thousand years old.

Chang Yu on the stage hurriedly thanked him, he didn't expect Emperor Chongzhen to give himself such a big surprise, what mansion, military memorial arch, he didn't look at it, and even felt that the military memorial arch was too eye-catching, it was simply to recruit black fans for himself to find scolding, but he was happy that the fourth battalion was incorporated into the emperor's twenty-seventh personal guard Dongchangwei.

The duties of the other twenty-six guards are to inspect the imperial palace of the imperial city, but his Dongchang guard is to inspect the soldiers and horses of the world, and it is obvious that Emperor Chongzhen is trying to make a profit for him.

Emperor Chongzhen saw Chang Yu's happy face, very proud, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect me to give you ......" said and suddenly frowned and looked at due east, Chang Yu turned his head to look back, but saw that the crowd of onlookers in the distance was suddenly chaotic, running in all directions, and vaguely saw soldiers and horses fighting, so he got up and shouted: "Escort!" ”

The hundreds of officials in the audience were shocked and made a mess.
