It stands to reason that when it comes to promotion in terms of rank, it requires the signature of the superior Yamen, but in this imperial list, apart from the seals of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites, there is only one seal of Emperor Yang Shu, and Xuanqing Wei cannot be found at all. The shadow of the Yamen.
And the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites didn't have the ability or courage to directly upgrade the people of Xuanqing Guard, so who did it? There is no other possibility except the emperor's decree.
It seems that Emperor Yang Shu has already anticipated the integration path after Black Flag Camp? Or did Pang Ban give Yang Shu a pass in advance? Shen Hao couldn't help but think about this in his heart.
"Congratulations on your meteoric rise! Congratulations on your military success!"
Wang Yiming doesn't think so much. He thinks this is a great joy. Don't think that there is only half a level difference between the fifth grade and the fourth grade, but in fact it is a gap that blocks most people who want to pursue official careers in the Jingjiu Dynasty.
The worst case scenario for those who are in the fifth rank is that each locality is in charge of one of them. They can be regarded as one person in the locality, and they have to show some dignity when dealing with them. But from the fourth rank, one can officially compete with the real power faction in the imperial city, or in other words, officially enter the threshold of the power center of the old Jing Dynasty. The difference between this one and the next one is huge.
That's why Wang Yiming shouted out the four words "Standing to the top" with great enthusiasm.
On the contrary, if Shen Hao climbs up and achieves the same level of martial arts success, then Wang Yiming will naturally rise with the tide. What's the saying?
One person achieves the Tao and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven!
Wang Yiming boasted that he had followed Shen Hao all the way. Although he could not say that he had done much hard work, he had definitely done his best. Now all he wanted was an opportunity to serve as deputy Qianhu. Moreover, the Black Flag Camp in Fengri City was originally There is no Deputy Qianhu Officer, so he has always been in control of actual affairs. Now all he needs to do is to straighten him out.
But Wang Yiming didn't dare to mention this matter directly to Shen Hao. He knew the rules and Mr. Shen's temper. Opening his mouth to "beg for an official" would be disgusted, so he didn't dare to do it easily despite his extremely high expectations. Revealed.
Shen Hao's face was calm, without much joy. After all, getting promoted isn’t easy, right? Just expected. Ahem.
"Go down, cooperate with the people who posted the list to implement the reward, and then organize it. Don't let others come in vain. You still have to have the money to be happy, be generous."
"I understand! Sir, please rest assured!"
"Go down."
Wang Yiming bowed and retreated. Shen Hao, on the other hand, was walking back and forth in the public house, still holding the rubbing imperial list just now, his brows slowly frowning.
Not long after, Shen Hao left the commanding office, led a group of guards through the teleportation circle to the imperial city, and went straight to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng seems to have gained some weight, and some of the sharp edges on his face have become a bit rounded, making him look more friendly. When Shen Hao came to see him, he pointed to the chair opposite with a smile and asked him to sit down and talk. At the same time, he picked up the teacup on the table and asked, "Why are you here here if you don't want to serve a drink to celebrate?"
According to Jiang Cheng, he knew about the reward on the imperial list, but he was just joking about it.
Shen Hao quickly raised his hands and said: "Sir, whatever little skill I have is due to your teachings. I dare not get carried away because of your glory."
"Hahaha..." Jiang Cheng put down the tea cup in his hand with a smile, pointed at Shen Hao in front of him and continued: "You kid! Your ability to flatter people has improved! Tell me, are you being rewarded? Are you confused by the name?"
Jiang Cheng has always regarded Shen Hao as his direct descendant. In addition to the feedback Shen Hao gave him, his attitude towards Shen Hao has always been unconcealed, and he has always been straightforward in his military style.
Shen Hao was also used to and even liked Jiang Cheng's style, so he also smiled and said: "Sir, this emperor's list does not look like a reward, but more like a show of force!"
As he spoke, Shen Hao placed the rubbing copy of the Imperial List on Jiang Cheng's desk, then returned to the chair and sat down again.
Jiang Cheng's smile remained unchanged, and he didn't even think that Shen Hao's words, which sounded a bit "disrespectful" at first glance, meant anything. He just picked up the rubbing book on the table and glanced at it a few times. Said: "Go on, tell me what do you see from this?"
"Do you think this is His Majesty greeting the great people?" Shen Hao's words were carefully considered when he arrived. "Say hello" is the most implicit way he can think of. After all, he is also a member of Xuanqing Guard, and Pang Ban treats him well. It is taboo for the venerable to save some face for him.
"Hoo! You can talk! This is not just "saying hello", you have put your hands into Xuan Qingwei's underwear!" Although Jiang Cheng still had a smile on his face, there was no trace of emotion in his words. He didn't hide his dissatisfaction. It would have been too much to directly reward Xuanqingwei, bypassing the commander's yamen and the governor's yamen. Now, ignoring the Xuanqingwei's institutional hierarchy and directly promoting Shen Hao, this is "not giving face."
Moreover, Shen Hao's current status in Xuanqing Guard is not simple, and the emperor's move was obviously well prepared.
To put it bluntly is to knock Xuan Qingwei. At the same time, he also wanted to screw out Shen Hao alone. If you think about it more deeply, Shen Hao has caught the emperor's eye, and he may have to cultivate it himself later. But in this way, in front of huge people...
Shen Hao really couldn't agree except to laugh twice.
Jiang Cheng continued: "However, the relationship between Xuanqing Guard and His Majesty also goes through a process of getting along. Moreover, before His Majesty ascended the throne, we also abide by the duty of Xuan Qing Guard and have a good relationship with His Majesty. This time, Your Majesty is rewarded with this edition. The beating should be due to personality, and this also reminds us that His Majesty likes to use heavy hands when doing things, and you should be aware of this in the future."
Even if you have a good relationship, you will hit them so hard. If you are angry, or if you want to hit them hard, will you just hit them to death?
Shen Hao couldn't help but secretly thought: Yang Shu rose from a humble position to become emperor, and he probably had a lot of resentment accumulated over the years in his heart. Now that he ascends the throne, he must find someone to vent his resentment, and even the means of doing things are deliberately so harsh. Who can tell whether he is picking on someone? Most people who dare to express their dissatisfaction will end up in Yang Shu's little book.
Shen Hao was thinking in his mind, but Jiang Cheng, who was sitting on the chair opposite, did not stop talking and continued to say: "Although His Majesty intends to beat you this time, and also intends to support you individually, your contribution is really unnecessary. Worry, the same goes for job promotion, but it’s just a little earlier.
You can go back in peace, and I will go find Mr. Pang and ask him carefully. I don't think it will have any impact on you. Besides, the evil-killing operation you carried out in Jingxi this time is very good, and it can be a highlight after you integrate the Black Flag Battalion..."
Jiang Cheng said it relatively easily, but he was not absolutely sure about the actual situation. The emperor reached into the Xuanqing Guard to mess around with impure motives, and Pang Ban was a person who couldn't get rid of the sand in his eyes. So the result would have to wait until he found Pang Ban in person.
Now it's just a matter of suppressing Shen Hao's emotions first.
