Chapter 609 Zheng Jing's temptation to seek the moon
"Your Highness, please take a look at this report."
Gan Hui handed a report to Zheng Jing and said earnestly.
Seeing that his tone was not right, Zheng Jing nodded slightly and took the report and opened it.
He frowned just after a glance.
"Yu Qi wants to compete with me for me?"
He took a deep breath and said, "Is the source reliable?"
Gan Hui shook his head and said, "The last general is not sure, but there is a way that there is no wind and no waves, so it should not be groundless."
Zheng Jing was in a heavy mood.
The news sounded very much like it was true, because he could see the desire, the desire for power and glory from Yu Qi's eyes.
It can be seen that Yu Qi is a person with aspirations. Such a person will not be satisfied with eating and waiting for death for the rest of his life. The position of the general is obviously too low, and Yu Qi will seek to be granted a title to a marquis.
This is nothing. Water flows to the lower part, and people walk to the higher part.
But the interests of Qi and Zheng Jing conflicted.
If you want to remember the first merit on Qi, then Zheng Jing will naturally have a lot less contribution.
Zheng Jing is now in need of credit. Zheng Chenggong asked him to lead the navy to attack Denglai alone in order to deliberately give Zheng Jing military merits and reputation.
The road has been paved for Zheng Jing. If Zheng Jing himself can't control it, it would be too unreasonable.
Contradiction, Zheng Jing’s mood at this moment is really too contradictory.
On the one hand, he admired Yu Qi's character very much and was proud to know a general like Yu Qi. On the other hand, he did not want Yu Qi to steal his credit.
It’s okay to get a piece of pill every seven percent, but it’s not.
This kind of thing will never be allowed to happen.
"It's better to believe that it has than to believe that it has nothing."
Zheng Jing took a deep breath and said, "It seems that I have to test him."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince wants to summon me?"
Yu Qi frowned and asked in confusion.
"Yes, it must be a great joy. Brother, you are extremely brave in this battle. Our Qixia Rebel Army will first climb to the city and make the first contribution. Brother, your reward is indispensable. It seems that His Royal Highness wants to reward him before the court rewards to win over the elder brother."
Wang Ermazi said happily.
"oh."
Yu Qi responded lightly, but he didn't look happy at all.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Since the prince summoned him, it is not appropriate for me not to go. But don't speak up to the outside world. If it is not a good thing, it will make a fool of yourself."
Yu Qi seemed very cautious and carefully advised Wang Ermazi.
Wang Ermazi responded indifferently: "If you know Brother, don't worry. Just go to see His Highness the Prince quickly, so that you can get some joy for your brothers when you come back."
Zheng Jing was summoned by Yu Qi at the Dengzhou General Office.
Yu Qi walked into the yamen carefully, bowed to Zheng Jing and said, "I will pay homage to the prince. I wonder what important things should I give to the prince to summon him?"
Zheng Jing was still very satisfied with Qi's respectful attitude. He nodded slightly and signaled: "Sit down."
"Thank you Your Highness to give the seat."
Yu Qi sat down carefully in a robe, leaning forward slightly, looking at listening.
"I have nothing else to ask you for it. I just come and have a chat."
Zheng Jing took a sip of tea and said, "I heard that General Yu is a descendant of Qi Shaobao?"
Yu Qi nodded slightly and said, "I only want to stay away from home."
"As a matter of fact, the tiger's son came out of the gate."
Zheng Jing nodded admiringly and exclaimed: "This battle of Dengzhou, General Yu made great contributions. This prince is preparing to report his victory to the court and plans to write General Yu in his first position."
Yu Qi hurriedly refused after hearing this: "No. The last general is just a vanguard general, and they are all wise leaders of His Highness the Crown Prince. Only the last general can achieve the final merit. How dare the light of fireflies compete with the bright moon? This merit is of course His Highness the Crown Prince."
Um?
Why is it different from what he imagined?
Zheng Jing only found it interesting.
Although he was just testing Yu Qi, judging from Yu Qi's current performance, it didn't seem like he was going to compete with him for credit.
Could it be that Yu Qi is just covering up and slandering the snake?
If this is the case, then this guy's scheming and scheming are too deep.
No, I have to continue testing him.
Zheng Jing paused for a moment and said with a laugh: "General Yu is so humble. Not to mention anything else, General Yu can take on the title of descendants of Qi Shaobao by governing the army. The Yu family army fought the war and was exactly the same as the Qi family army back then. It was a blessing for my Ming Dynasty."
Yu Qi was so proud of being a little confused about his mind.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is so serious. Now there are only the Ming official army, so how can there be any Qi family army or Yu family army?"
The Ming Dynasty was in which Qi Jiguang lived was quite peaceful, so it was no big deal to name the Qi family army.
But now the world is in chaos, and it is difficult for people to think about the Yue family army if they have the name of the Yu family army.
There is no need to say much about what Yue Fei's fate is. Yu Qi does not want to be the second best person to be the master.
His Highness is going to praise him.
He could not follow the words of His Highness the Crown Prince, otherwise he would probably be led into the ditch.
"Haha, this prince is wrong."
Zheng Jing laughed and then continued: "But then, the soldiers saw General Yu's merits. If the court could not reward him according to his merits, the soldiers would probably not be convinced."
"They are all serving the country and doing things for His Majesty. How can there be any convincing things?"
Yu Qi bowed to Nanjing and said in a deep voice: "What I wish in my life is to do something for the Ming Dynasty with my meager strength. As for personal honor and disgrace, I didn't care about it at all."
Zheng Jing thought to himself that he had said this, and Yu Qi was still playing with him here.
"Ahem, General Yu is really a loyal country, but it is clear that rewards and punishments must be done. Otherwise, the morale of the army may be unstable."
This is Zheng Jing’s last wave of tests on Qi.
If Yu Qi still does not show off his mountains and does not show off, then Zheng Jing will believe that Yu Qi has no ambitions for the time being.
"It's better to let His Majesty decide."
Yu Qi said helplessly.
Zheng Jing was shocked when he heard this.
What does it mean to let His Majesty decide? Is this implying that what he says doesn't count?
It seems that Yu Qi still longs for the imperial court to be promoted and awarded title.
Zheng Jing narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a harmonious voice: "This is natural. When Zi is wise and powerful today, he will definitely be able to observe the hard work of the soldiers. General Yu's contribution will definitely be recognized and rewarded."
It turns out that people know each other but not your heart.
This sounds nice to Yu Qi, but the fox's tail was revealed.
Zheng Jing already had a scheming in his mind.
In the future, he would deliberately suppress his use of Qi.
