C2450 Consent to wounded soldiers (1/2)

Today, Zai Chun wasn't wearing a dragon robe, but was dressed in a solemn black suit with a black hat.

Before he entered the sickroom, the British doctor had already given each of the injured Qing Kingdom guards and the British Military Police a shot of morphine to refresh their minds. Therefore, when Zai Chun entered the sickroom, he took a look at all the injured people who were still in good spirits.

”Thank you for your courage. Is the wound painful?”

”What's your name?” In that army? ”Thank you for fighting bravely against the assassin!”

Zai Chun walked past the sickbeds one by one, greeting the British military police. These people never thought that the Chinese emperor would come visit them personally, they were all so excited that hot tears filled their eyes.

This is the emperor ah, the emperor personally came to visit me and even shook my hand, such a glorious matter is enough to blow for the rest of my life.

Zai Chun greeted each and every injured person with a few words before passionately shaking hands. Behind him was a group of reporters pressing on the shutter door with kacha kacha sounds.

Today, Duke of Newcastle was accompanying the little Emperor. Outside the army camp, there were more than five hundred fully armed Royal Guards protecting the Tongzhi Emperor.

”Reward!” Every time he patiently consoled the wounded, Tongzhi would confidently say a word of praise. Man Shun, on the other hand, was already prepared for this.

”My God! What is this? ”Gold, huh?!”

Gold ingots were not just any ordinary items on the market. They were refined by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and were usually used as gifts to be used as prizes and money for the princes and princesses to celebrate their birthdays during the new year.

The casting was extremely exquisite, the purity of the gold was also very high, it was not a currency in circulation, it was a typical collection. The bottom of the gold ingot had the name of a smithing master, as well as the time used to forge it.

The Duke of Newcastle on the side was a knowledgeable person, such a gold ingot had the mark of a imperial family of the Qing Empire, if it was placed in the market, it could be sold for a high price of five to six thousand pounds.

The combined income of ordinary military police was only around four to five hundred pounds a year. Having received such a large reward all at once, the wounded soldiers were at a loss as to what to do.

”Take it. No matter what reward you give me, it can't express our gratitude. It also can't represent your loyalty and bravery. This is what you have won!”

”Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty!” The British military police were all excited by the fact that they had enough treasures to pass on to their families.

After seeing all the British injuries, only then were the guards and eunuchs of the Emperor Tongzhi. They were all the emperor's own servants, so there was no need for them to do anything that would not appear on the surface.

Tongzhi nodded his head, and Xiao Sixi ran over to pass down the emperor's orders, ”I am very relieved, all of you subjects do your best to protect the face of my Great Qing, we will naturally not treat you unfairly!”

”Those who die in battle will receive a rank increase of one rank, their ranks will be raised by three ranks, and their number of silver will be raised by ten thousand. Their families will then choose their descendants to inherit their titles and ranks …”

”All wounded will be promoted by one rank, six thousand gold, and one yellow vest! ”After returning to our country, we will prioritize joining the army and leading the troops …”

The and the yellow vest were all useless things. The priority was to lead the troops and that was the reward for them. Several guards' eyes were already turning blue; with the help of this trip, they could earn some qualifications in the new army. Their future prospects were limitless.
