Chapter 164: Imperial Court Reward (7 More Monthly Tickets)
This sentence makes people feel very funny, forgive me...... Grand Master?
Just when Wang Tixue was stunned, Chen Kaizhi said flatly: "The student said goodbye." ”
"You...... Chen Shengren, and listen to ......"
Wang Tixue wanted to say something, but Chen Kaizhi made a gesture and left directly without stopping.
Now that I have understood that I am being used as a chess piece today, and the feeling of being a chess piece is of course uncomfortable, do you want me Chen Kaizhi to thank you for the eighteenth generation of your ancestors? Why don't you dare to offend the Lu family, why don't you pretend that you have a sense of justice, but use me Chen Kaizhi as a gunman?
Chen Kaizhi left very simply, too lazy to listen to the king's ramblings, talk about big truths, or tell his grievances.
When I got out of the temple, I saw that my uncle had been here for a long time.
Uncle Wucai said with a sad face: "Why have you been there for so long? These sedan chair drivers are in a hurry, saying that they have missed work, and they have to add money, Kaizhi, Uncle Shi this time, he really spent too much money for you, and sooner or later he will die of poverty. ”
Chen Kaizhi smiled at Uncle Wucai and said, "Uncle Lao is worried." ”
got on the sedan chair and parted ways with my uncle halfway, and Chen Kaizhi went home directly.
But to Chen Kaizhi's surprise, just when he arrived at the door of the house, he saw that there was another person from the county king's mansion, and the person sent urged: "Chen Shengyuan, please go to the county king's mansion quickly, the court has an edict down." ”
The so-called edict is the meaning of reward, and the edict is an order issued by the palace; The edict is the will of the world, and the meaning of each word here is completely different, such as this time it is an edict, which is the reward issued by the palace.
Chen Kaizhi didn't dare to slack off, this time the killing of the salt thief was a great achievement, and he would definitely show it when he came to the imperial court.
But...... What will be rewarded?
Chen Kaizhi got into the carriage specially prepared for him by the palace, and soon arrived at the county palace, and saw that Chen Dexing was already wearing a python robe and a beam crown, and he had also ordered someone to open the middle door, and together with the eunuch who announced the decree, he waited for Chen Kaizhi to come.
Obviously, there is also a share of Chen Kaizhi in this edict.
Seeing Chen Kai's arrival, Chen Dexing hurriedly said, "Kaizhi, come quickly." ”
Then he and Chen Kai gave a message.
This eunuch was dressed in a red robe and was very polite to Chen Dexing, but when it was time to read out the will, Fang straightened his face and said in a throat: "I said: Chen Dexing, the king of Dongshan County, and Chen Kaizhi, a member of Jiangning, have made meritorious contributions to the elimination of salt thieves, and they have specially given ten Dongzhu to the king of Dongshan County, and allowed him to clean up Jinling salt affairs; Chen Kaizhi, a member of Jiangning, made outstanding meritorious contributions, and ordered the local government to make a ......"
After hearing this will, Chen Dexing was stunned for a moment.
His reward is quite rich, ten Dongzhu, in fact, although it is not worth much, for the clan, the symbolic meaning is huge, and it also makes the Dongshan County Mansion responsible for salt affairs, which can be regarded as the honor of the imperial court, Jinling's salt affairs are too rampant, and the Dongshan County Palace's rectification can make the imperial court worry-free, not to mention, the oil and water of the salt affairs are abundant, and there must be a lot of profits behind it.
But...... What about Chen Kaizhi?
Chen Kaizhi only ordered the local table, which means that there is no reward.
Chen Dexing is hot temper, he knows that this credit is mainly Chen Kaizhi's, he is just a foil, he has always been arrogant and domineering, at this time he rushed forward angrily, grabbed the eunuch's collar, and said viciously: "Injustice, what kind of order is this?" The greatest meritorious service is Chen Kaizhi's ......"
The eunuch was startled and said tremblingly: "This ...... This is the grass of His Royal Highness King Zhao...... This...... Nothing to do with minions. ”
Chen Kaizhi didn't expect that the result was just a show, but he was calmer than King Zhao, in fact, even if it was a reward from the imperial court, what could he reward?
His future future is the imperial examination, even if he is given an official job, if he is not an official who comes out of the imperial examination, he will be looked down upon!
So he hurriedly stopped Chen Dexing and said: "Your Highness, calm your anger, why bother with this father-in-law, this is not what he meant, he is just the one who transmits the order." ”
Chen Dexing said angrily: "King Zhao has always been praised as a virtuous king, and now it seems that this king is nothing more than that, the rewards and punishments are unknown, and he is a wise bird." ”
scolded him so badly that the eunuch was frightened.
Chen Kaizhi smiled at this time: "The student wants to congratulate His Highness, His Highness has taken over the Jinling Salt Affairs, which is a treatment that no other clan has ever had, and it is really gratifying." ”
"I'd rather not." Chen Dexing said angrily: "It's really ridiculous, how can this king have any credit? If you didn't think of a way to save the king's life, what else did the king have to do? If this king wants to play, he must fight for reason. ”
Chen Kaizhi grabbed him, shook his head and said: "The student is just a scholar, and his ambition is to study and study, in fact, even if there is any reward, the student is not blessed, Your Highness, this is the order of the imperial court, even if it is fought, what is the use?" His Royal Highness did this, but he harmed the students, and I didn't know, and I thought that His Highness was arguing with the court, and the students were behind the scenes. ”
"Yes...... That's it? Chen Dexing's eyes were as big as a brass bell.
Chen Kaizhi thought in his heart, the world is so unfair, since it is the will drawn up by King Zhao, it seems that he has offended King Zhao because of Luo Shenfu, how can King Zhao give him a generous gift? On the contrary, it is Chen Dexing, presumably King Zhao must be hoping to encircle this king of Dongshan County.
You must know that the monopoly of salt and iron has always been the main source of wealth for the imperial court, so when it comes to salt and iron, the clan is generally not allowed to interfere, after all, the local kings have been treated well, how can it be possible to hand over such fat to the clans to manage?
Of course, the situation in Jinling is special, a large amount of private salt flooded the market, resulting in official salt can not be sold at a price, this time taking advantage of this opportunity, gave Chen Dexing the opportunity to manage the salt affairs, not only sold the king of Dongshan County, but also saved the court some troubles.
Chen Dexing was still angry, and sneered and said: "It's so unfair, it's really cold, Kaizhi, this king is sorry for you, why do you help outsiders to blame this king?" Ay. ”
Chen Kaizhi said: "Your Highness, the student is a person who accepts his fate. ”
"Huh?"
"Students are used to suffering, and they also know that they are from a poor background, and what they want to get, they need to pay more than others to fight for, so today's things are unfair in the eyes of His Royal Highness, but for students, it is a common thing, Your Highness should not be angry, now the imperial court has entrusted His Royal Highness with the great responsibility, this salt affairs have been a top priority, hasn't His Royal Highness thought about how to clean up the salt affairs of Jinling?"
Chen Dexing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "Purge? It's nothing more than a salt thief, how else can it be cleaned up? ”
