"Commander Qian?"
Li Changsheng naturally knew that in the Brocade Guard, the Commander was the third rank, the two Commanders were the third rank, the two Commanders were the fourth rank, and then he was the fourth rank.
The commander of the Royal Guards was divided into the commander of the capital and the commander of the guards.
The two Commanders were the assistants of the Commander of the Brocade Guard, in charge of training, military discipline, etc.
Did Zhu Houzhao promote him from a 4th Rank Guardian to a 4th Rank Commander?
Although Li Changsheng was puzzled, he still took the imperial edict from Liu Jin and opened it.
He could see at a glance that Zhu Houzhao had not only promoted him to the fourth rank, but he was also in charge of the North and South Town.
This meant that the entire Embroidered Uniform Guard was under his control.
Although there were two commanders and one commander above him, these people were like empty titles. They only held this position and no one could control them in the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Apart from that, Li Changsheng also saw three sets of bullfighting clothes and a top-grade embroidered spring saber.
"Commander Li Du, is it strange that His Majesty suddenly promoted you and even bestowed you with three sets of bullfighting clothes and a top-grade embroidered spring saber?”
Liu Jin looked at Li Changsheng with a smile and said,""This is because His Majesty already knows that Li Du has commanded Minister Qian to exchange more than 50,000 taels of silver for rice, flour, grain, and other daily necessities and send them to the poor people in the northern area of the outer city.
When His Majesty found out, he was filled with emotions. He suddenly decided to promote you to Commander Qian of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and gave you three sets of bullfighting clothes and a top-grade embroidered spring saber.”
"Your Majesty already knows?"
Li Changsheng was stunned when he heard Liu Jin's words. He had always stayed in the Li Residence and had never left. He did not know that everyone in the capital had found out about the delivery of rice, flour, grain, and other daily necessities.
"There's probably no one in the entire capital who doesn't know about this.”
Liu Jin looked at Li Changsheng with admiration and said,""In the entire capital, only Commander Li Du can earn my heartfelt admiration!
Commander Li Du was truly a good person and a good official!”
"…Eunuch Liu, you flatter me."
Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng spoke with a humble expression. Liu Jin, a famous traitor of the Zheng De Dynasty, admired him and called him a good person and a good official. Li Changsheng did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Of course, the current Liu Jin was not the Liu Jin of the future.
Now, the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao had just ascended the throne not long ago.
"Commander Li Du, these are the three sets of bullfighting clothes and the top-grade embroidered spring saber that His Majesty has given you.”
"Commander Li Du, you can take a look.”
Liu Jin pointed at the four Embroidered Uniform Guards behind him, who were holding the bullfighting uniform and the top-grade embroidered spring saber, and said to Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng had already seen the three sets of bullfighting clothes and the top-grade embroidered spring saber. He hesitated for a moment and said,""Eunuch Liu, isn't this Embroidered Uniform Guard given by the emperor usually a set? Why did His Majesty bestow three sets at once?”
"Under normal circumstances, there is indeed no precedent for this in our Great Ming Dynasty.”
"However, Commander Li Du is different. Commander Li Du has an extremely high status in His Majesty's heart. His Majesty gave him three sets of bullfighting clothes so that Commander Li Du can wear them.”
Liu Jin said emotionally.
Hearing Liu Jin's words, Li Changsheng's expression turned strange. He had given him three sets of bullfighting clothes just so that he could change into them?
This Zheng De Emperor Zhu Houzhao did not walk the normal path.
Just like what was recorded in history.
However, he could also feel Zhu Houzhao's favor and trust towards him, and he was quite touched in his heart.
"Commander Li Du, take a look at this top-grade Embroidered Spring Saber first. Even people like me who don't like sabers are very curious about this top-grade Embroidered Spring Saber.”
"This saber is a true peerless saber. There's only one of it in His Majesty's palace treasury.”
"If this peerless saber appears in the martial world, it will probably be enough to set off a bloody storm and make countless machetemen in the martial world go crazy for it.”
Liu Jin pointed at a top-grade Embroidered Spring Saber held in the hands of an Embroidered Uniform Guard and said to Li Changsheng,""I haven't seen what this peerless saber looks like. Commander Li Du, why don't you take it out and let me broaden my horizons with you?”
Li Changsheng pondered for a moment before picking up the supreme-grade Embroidered Spring Saber. This supreme-grade Embroidered Spring Saber did not look much different from an ordinary Embroidered Spring Saber.
It could only be said that the scabbard looked even more ancient, and the patterns carved on it were even more complicated, giving people an extremely mysterious feeling.
He slowly unsheathed his saber.
A cold light suddenly appeared, giving people a feeling of being exposed.
However, after this cold light disappeared, the supreme-grade Embroidered Spring Saber seemed to have retracted its brilliance.
The blade was like autumn frost, and it was obvious that it was a treasured saber that could cut through iron like mud.
As Li Changsheng held the exquisite Embroidered Spring Saber, he could feel that the saber seemed to contain an extremely powerful force.
Just as Liu Jin had said, this was definitely a peerless treasure saber.
"As expected of a true peerless treasured saber. Such a peerless treasured saber should be matched with a hero like Commander Li Du Qian.”
Liu Jin smiled at Li Changsheng and said,""Only a good person and a good official like Commander Li Du is qualified to be called a hero.”
"…Too much. Eunuch Liu's words are too much. I only did a small thing on Weibo. I don't deserve such praise from Eunuch Liu.”
Li Changsheng coughed and sheathed the exquisite Embroidered Spring Knife. He held it with his left hand and said to Liu Jin.
He didn't know why, but he was not used to being praised by a famous corrupt official of the Zhengde Dynasty.
Hearing Li Changsheng's words, Liu Jin smiled and instructed the three Embroidered Uniform Guards who were holding the bullfighting outfits to hand them over to a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guards who was guarding the Li Residence. He said,""Commander Li Du, apart from sending these to you, His Majesty also has two words for me to pass to Commander Li Du.”
"Oh, I wonder what these two sentences are, Your Majesty?”
Li Changsheng said solemnly.
"This is the first sentence."
"In the future, Li Qing will receive all the money and money he deserves.”
"You can even take silver that you shouldn't have.”
"And you have to take it with a clear conscience."
"In the entire Great Ming Dynasty, he is a special case.”
"Granting special privileges to the imperial power, I allow him to take bribes!”
Liu Jin pinched his throat and imitated Zhu Houzhao's speech.
“……”
Li Changsheng was stunned. This Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao was indeed a man of character.
The group of Embroidered Uniform Guards and the two Embroidered Uniform Guards who were guarding the Li Residence were stunned. His Majesty, he actually, actually said such words to Li Changsheng. What kind of favor did he have to say such words?
