Chapter 84 Long live my emperor (additional update)

Hu Guang's words echoed in the alley, shaking everyone's heart. Their faces were full of disbelief, and they stared blankly at the young emperor.

Since ancient times, only the most outstanding civil servants and generals have been qualified to enter the Ancestral Temple, receive incense, and coexist with the country! And this is the highest honor that can seal the coffin for civil servants and military generals.

The Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall that the emperor just mentioned is one level lower than the Ancestral Temple, but at least it is receiving incense and coexisting with the country! For such an honor, as long as one sacrifices one's life for the Ming Dynasty and is loyal to one's country, one can qualify. This... what an honor this is! I am willing to die!

Even though the emperor spoke eloquently and said it in public, the treatment was so high that they couldn't believe it!

The assistant minister Zhou Yanru looked at the lowly military households on both sides of the alley, frowned, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I think you should be cautious..."

Hearing him speak like this, the wounded soldiers turned to look at him. There was no hatred, but their expressions did not change much. Some even thought this was reasonable.

But Hu Guang interrupted Zhou Yanru without hesitation and asked sharply: "Why be cautious? Do you think what I said is child's play?"

Long Yan got angry and made Zhou Yanru bow, not daring to say anything more.

Seeing this, Hu Guang glanced at the people in the alley and said solemnly and solemnly: "There is only one life, it has nothing to do with high or low! It is very precious to everyone. He sacrificed his life for the country and was loyal to the country. Only when there are more people like this can the interests of Ming Dynasty be defended and the country and its people be safe. People like this can be worthy of Ming Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty must be worthy of them!"

At this point, he suddenly raised his voice and said loudly and decisively: "This matter is my own decision. It is settled like this. There is no need for others to comment!"

At this moment, the wind was no longer cold, the wound no longer hurt, and the wounded soldier's face was filled with ecstasy. Just when they were about to say something, they suddenly heard a hearty laugh: "Hahaha..."

The sound was not very loud, and soon seemed to run out of energy. The laughter was low and then disappeared, but it was a bit abrupt in the quiet alley. When everyone heard the sound and looked over, they saw a seriously injured man leaning against the wall with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Seeing the emperor looking over, he tried his best to speak, and said with difficulty: "My emperor...Long live...Long live..."

Before he finished speaking, he tilted his head, closed his eyes, and left with a calm look on his face.

When the other wounded soldiers saw it, tears welled up in their eyes for some unknown reason. They all struggled to kneel down and refused to listen to Hu Guang's dissuasion. They all shouted "Long live my emperor, long live my emperor". Their voices began to rise and fall, but they felt that they could only shout one sentence. It was not enough to express their inner feelings, so they continued shouting. After shouting, the voices synchronized and converged into a huge sound that resounded over the alley and spread far away.

Seeing that the dissuasion was useless, Hu Guang stopped trying. Looking at these simple men, he was moved in his heart.

At this time, he was not proud of his eloquence. He just felt that he just did the minimum thing. Such things will be commonplace in later generations.

But they were so grateful now, which made him feel a little ashamed. Therefore, he secretly swore in his heart: I, Hu Guang, since I have traveled to this era, I will definitely change this era. Believe me, I will definitely do it!

Wen Tiren glanced at the wounded soldiers in the alley, as well as the uninjured soldiers, who were all shouting devoutly to express their gratitude. Then he turned to look at the young emperor. Suddenly, for some reason, he felt This young emperor deserves to sacrifice everything he has to serve him!

There is no other reason. This young emperor already treats these ordinary soldiers like this. If he is dedicated and dedicated, will he still be inferior to these ordinary soldiers when the final decision is made?

In this feudal dynasty, the court would also commend some people with outstanding deeds, but generally speaking, these were isolated cases and rare.

In the original history of the Battle of Changli, at the critical moment when Jianlu was attacking the city, there was a man who sacrificed his life to pull down the ladder that Jianlu was about to attack, thus saving Changli. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen decreed that he should be named Lord Lati, and a temple should be built to enjoy the incense of the people.

Now, in their eyes, Hu Guang's approach is generalizing this kind of case. Although civil servants like Zhou Yanru felt it was inappropriate, there were precedents. Coupled with the emperor's domineering power, there are sufficient reasons. If he continues to object, he will be an enemy of all the soldiers in the world, as well as other people who are ambitious and dare to sacrifice. As long as you have a clear mind, you will not contradict the emperor or bully the world over this matter.

In fact, even these civil servants are not able to enjoy the incense of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, but they still have the opportunity to enter the Hall of Loyalty and Martyrs. They can also be famous for centuries, receive the incense of the Ming Dynasty, and coexist with the country.

After the excited mood of the wounded soldiers calmed down, Hu Guang explained some things to Man Gui and Li Fengxiang before leaving the alley and driving back to the palace.

Mangui was equally excited. He felt that under the current emperor's rule, the status of warriors might change. The promise just made is one of them.

Watching the emperor's car drive away, Mangui suddenly came back to his senses while being excited: Hey, the emperor didn't seem to mention the pension!

With this thought in mind, he turned his head to look at the wounded soldiers and the soldiers beside him, and saw that they were all still agitated. I couldn't help but shake my head in my heart. With morale so high now, there was no need to mention the pension issue.

In fact, he misunderstood Hu Guang. The reason why Hu Guang didn't mention it was because he couldn't promise anything. At least there is no money in the treasury now, and the war has just begun. If the pension gold cannot be extended by then, it will be broken. At least he had to figure out how much money he had before talking about the pension.

At this time, Man Gui had full confidence that the morale of the soldiers at the top of the city would be greatly improved after what happened in the alley just now was known to them.

With this in mind, he immediately loudly ordered: "Come on, pass on what the emperor said and let all the soldiers know!"

At about the same time, in a compound far away in Changli, some healthy women were busy. However, one of them seemed a little absent-minded. After being distracted several times, she suddenly walked to a gatekeeper's office at the entrance of the courtyard, said a few words, and left in a hurry.

When she arrived at an ordinary house, she pushed the door open and shouted loudly: "The child's father, the child's father..."

"Mom, daddy is asleep, don't make any noise!" a child responded to her.

When she heard this, she opened the door and went to the bedroom. She saw that her husband was sleeping soundly, and she knew that he was exhausted. Seeing this, she hesitated a little. After a while, she made up her mind, stretched out her hand to push the man, and said at the same time: "The child's father, wake up, the child's father, wake up..."
