It's not good for Man Bao to tell the emperor that these things are not so valuable in the Western Regions, and Su Hexiang who gave him was found from the horse thief's den. Therefore, he said: "Your Majesty, when we went to the Western Regions, we specially brought some tea and cloth. After arriving in the Western Regions, we can sell them. The money we earn can not only offset some road expenses, but also buy some gifts for relatives and friends."
Bai Shan added: "Besides, when we passed through Liangzhou, we encountered a group of horse thieves who blocked the road and robbed them. Fortunately, the governor of Liangzhou and Nie Canjun were brave and led the soldiers to wipe out the horse thieves. We confiscated some property from them. "
The emperor asked, "Shouldn't the confiscated property be handed over to the treasury?"
"Yes, the governor of Liangzhou used it as military funds, and even gave us some to suppress the alarm."
Prince Gong, who had been writing with his head down, snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid someone is asking for a bribe?"
Bai Shan immediately took the lead and knelt down, "I dare not wait."
Zhou Man also knelt down, and asked the emperor with round eyes, "Your Majesty, will the ones that shocked us also be handed over to the treasury?"
The emperor is not so stingy, if all the proceeds from suppressing bandits are nationalized, how many local officials and garrison are willing to take the risk to suppress bandits
Although Dajin is said to be peaceful and peaceful, there are not many bandits and bandits in the mountains. Anyway, there are always people who like to make a quick fortune. He waved his hand and said, "Since the governor of Liangzhou gave it to you to suppress your shock, then you just keep it."
He gave Prince Gong another sneaky look and asked him to write honestly.
Prince Gong lowered his eyes and lowered his head to continue writing.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has brought the little grandson here."
The emperor immediately smiled and waved, "Let them in quickly."
Then he said to Gu Zhong: "Move the brazier away a little, so as not to choke the eagle slave."
Gu Zhong responded with a smile, bowed and moved the brazier away a little.
The prince walked in quickly with the child in his arms, but he didn't let go of it. He directly hugged him and bowed to the emperor, "See father."
"Excuse me, it's so cold, what are you doing out with the eagle slave in your arms?"
That being said, he stretched out his hand to let him hold the child.
The crown prince handed over his son to him, and then took a step back to look at Zhou Man, and couldn't help but sneer, "Yo, Doctor Zhou is finally back."
Man Bao lowered his head, sure enough, the road was refreshing for a while, and returning to Beijing became hotter.
Sitting in the arms of the imperial grandfather, the little grandson was not timid at all. When he saw the unclosed box on the table and the red gemstone inside, he immediately reached out to grab it.
The emperor was already paying attention, but he still didn't expect his hands to be so fast. He stretched and retracted and grabbed the gem in his hand. Seeing that the emperor's grandfather wanted to snatch it from him, he immediately clasped his hands tightly and hugged him in his arms, his back still slightly Bend over to prevent him from snatching.
The emperor was very happy, patted him on the back and said with a laugh: "Our eagle slaves have really sharp eyes and quick hands, so they must be talented in martial arts."
When Ying Nu heard the emperor's grandfather praised him, he grinned, picked up the gem that he had been holding tightly in his hand and pushed it to him, "Here you are, here you are."
The emperor took it and was even happier, "Eagle slaves know how to honor their grandfather, they are really good boys."
The five people in Manbao looked at it, and silently said in their hearts: This is obviously a gift from us.
But after passing this thing through the hands of the ignorant little Huangsun, it naturally became a gift from the little Huangsun.
The emperor also became more and more happy. It was rare for Zhou Man and the others to be held accountable. He made the matter of their late return into a trivial matter, and said to the prince who ridiculed them: "Okay, this time Zhou Man brought back all kinds of things. You have been in charge of the imperial medical department for the method of vaccinia, you let them start to study it, and if it is feasible, come up with a plan."
The prince should go down.
The emperor hugged the eagle slave, shook his little hand, and after pondering for a moment, he asked Bai Shan four, "You have made great contributions in the Western Expedition this time, what do you want?"
Bai Shan was slightly stunned, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Man Bao.
The emperor saw it, and said calmly: "Don't look at her anymore, she is an official of the court, since she has made meritorious service, she should be rewarded, but what about the four of you?"
You don't have an official position, what are you going to do
Bai Shan gave Yin Yu a wink and asked him to speak first.
Yin Ju went out and bowed and said, "Return to Your Majesty, this time the Xizheng officials did not come out, so I dare not take credit for it."
The emperor smiled when he saw Yin Ju, and said in a gentle voice: "Although you did not go to the Western Regions, you also went all the way to the Western Regions. This time the method of vaccinia is due to your contribution. You just talk about it, and I will reward you if I can reward you." .”
Yin or declined again, "The method of vaccinia has not been determined yet, and Master Zhou and Bai Shan contributed the most to finding the prescription, and I dare not take credit for it."
The emperor laughed and said: "You are as humble as your father, but don't you have confidence in the vaccinia method you found? I tell you to say it, even if this method doesn't work, I won't ask you for your crimes in the future." That's it."
Bai Shan's eyebrows twitched, and his heart became more stable.
Yin Ju paused and then said: "The minister will dare to ask His Majesty for a prince's mansion."
The emperor was slightly stunned, and then he laughed and asked, "You want to move out of the Yinhou Mansion? Does your father know?"
Yin Yu said: "If His Majesty grants the mansion, I don't think it's a big deal for me to live in the noble mansion once in a while."
The emperor smiled and shook his head, and after thinking for a while, he said: "You are a county man, the county man's mansion... I remember that there is a good mansion in Chongyifang, I gave it to you."
Yin or knelt down to thank you.
The emperor looked at the other three, his eyes gliding over Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, and then fell on Liu Huan.
Liu Huan couldn't help but secretly went to see Bai Shan and Zhou Man.
The two winked at him, telling him to speak boldly.
Sitting on it, the emperor had a panoramic view of all this, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you winking for?"
Bai Shan and Man Bao immediately stood at attention with their heads bowed.
The emperor snorted, then smiled again when he looked at Liu Huan, and said, "You are Liu Hui's grandson, come on, tell me what you want?"
Liu Huan swallowed, but still couldn't help looking at Bai Shan.
Bai Shan gave him a wink and asked him to take it easy, because he really couldn't think of asking for money, no, the emperor might not have much money, but he could ask for things, such as cloth and treasures.
But Liu Huan misunderstood, thinking that Bai Shan told him to say whatever he thought, so he swallowed and said: "Your Majesty, minister, can I ask for your favor?"
Bai Shan: ...
emperor:…
Everyone: ...
Even the prince couldn't help turning his head to look at this fool.
Liu Huan became even more nervous, so he couldn't help but speak out what was in his heart, "It's too difficult to be admitted to Jinshi. I guess I won't be able to pass the exam even if I try hard for ten years. It's okay to test Mingjing, but that's not as good as direct grace. In case grandfather keeps talking about me, saying that when I go out to say goodbye, no one will look down on me... "
The emperor stroked his chin and looked him up and down, nodded after a while, "No wonder..."
Then he said: "It's not impossible, but your grandfather may not be willing. You should ask your grandfather about this first. If he asks for favor for you, I will give you favor. If you don't want to, I can do it." How about letting me take the Mingjing exam in February this year?"
see you at nine pm
