Chapter 178
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor issued an edict, saying that Ma Su had made contributions to the state, governed Yeqin, expanded the territory, and coordinated the rear, and appointed him as the Left Prime Minister of Wenyuan Pavilion, a first-rank official, and granted him the title of Prince of a County, the King of Changshan, hereditary without change, with a fief of 10,000 households, and granted him a palace of the King of Changshan in Jinling, 10,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of silver, 100 palace maids, and 500 servants.
"
Ma Su was shocked.
He was also crowned a king.
To be honest, he was not jealous of Pan Feng's crowning as a king, because Pan Feng fought his way to it bit by bit.
But he had never been on the battlefield.
"Prince Changshan, why don't you accept the order!" Eunuch Gao reminded
""I, Ma Su, thank your majesty for your kindness. I will definitely work for your majesty and the Ming Dynasty in the future, even if it means my death!" Ma Su said excitedly.
"Flat"
"Thank you, Your Majesty"
"Ma Su, maybe your contributions may not seem as great as Pan Feng's, but I remember all your contributions before I became emperor."
"This time I make you king, not only because you coordinate logistics and work hard to keep the four directions stable, but also because you helped me take down Ye Qin."
Xiao Jingli said with a smile.
Ma Su understood, more importantly, it was the emperor's preference for him and the reward for his loyalty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Ma Su bowed again.
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Qin Yi, Qin Bao, and Luo Sha, for their meritorious service in establishing Luowang, managing Luowang, spying on the intelligence of various countries, and disrupting the grain and grass rear of various countries, Luowang is now renamed Jinyiwei, and together with Bixiewei, they are the Emperor's personal guards."
"Responsible for monitoring officials all over the world, protecting the emperor's safety, with the power to arrest and interrogate, under my direct jurisdiction, Wenyuan Pavilion, Military Affairs Pavilion and the royal family are not allowed to penetrate, only loyal to the emperors of all dynasties, Qin Yi was appointed as the commander of the Jinyiwei, the third rank, and was granted the title of Prince of a County, the title of Zhongwang, with a fief of 10,000 households, and a Zhongwang Mansion in Jinling, 10,000 taels of gold, and 100,000 taels of silver!
"
"Qin Bao was appointed as the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, a third-rank official, and was granted the title of a prince, the title of the Righteous Prince, with a fief of 10,000 households, and was given the Jinling Righteous Prince Mansion, 10,000 taels of gold, and 100,000 taels of silver!"
"Luo Sha was appointed as the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, a third-rank official, and was granted the title of a prince, the title of the Brave King, with a fief of 10,000 households, and was given a Jinling Brave King's Palace, 10,000 taels of gold, and 100,000 taels of silver!"
"The rest of Luowang's personnel will be rewarded according to their merits. This is my decree!"
It has to be said that today's shocks came one after another.
Everyone present knew that Qin Yi, Qin Bao, and Luo Sha were eunuchs.
This was the first time in history that a eunuch was crowned a king.
Xiao Jingli smiled and looked at the three people below who were already in tears.
Qin Yi, Qin Bao, and Luo Sha all understood that the reason they did not inherit the throne was because they were crowned kings.
Instead of being crowned a duke and then inheriting the throne, they would rather find an adopted son to take over. They still hoped to be crowned kings and leave their names in history!
This was the great love that His Majesty had for them!
""Your Majesty, I, Qin Yi, Qin Bao, and Luo Sha, thank you for your kindness. We are willing to die for you!"
The three knelt down and bowed.
The civil and military officials looked at the three people and understood one thing in their hearts, that is, their majesty is loyal and righteous!
At the same time, they had heard of Luo Wang's name and knew that the three people's merits could indeed be made kings.
However, it was the first time in the world that a eunuch or a servant was made king!
For a moment, everyone forgot the duties of the Jinyiwei.
""Get up. Although the Jinyiwei are only of the third rank, they are under my direct jurisdiction and their status is high enough. You must manage the people below you well, don't be arrogant, and act cautiously."
Xiao Jingli reminded
"Yes, we will keep it in mind!"
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the Exorcist Guards are loyal and devoted, protecting my safety. I grant them numerous rewards, make them the commander of the Wan Guo, grant them the title of Prince of the County, make them the Prince of the Guards, and give them a fief of 10,000 households. I decree this."
""Your Majesty, I am Wan Guo. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you very much!" Wan Guo said excitedly.
Xiao Jingli looked at Wan Guo and nodded slightly:"Protecting me is also a great merit. As long as you do your job well, you will have merit."(cfai)
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"Wan Guo never thought that he would be given a title, let alone a king.
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims that Xiao Jingyan has made meritorious contributions in defeating Dayu and expanding the territory, and is granted the title of Prince, the title of Prince Jing, hereditary without replacement, with a fief of 10,000 households, and a reward of 10,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver. (To read the novel, go to Fulu Novel Network!)
""Your Majesty, I am Xiao Jingyan. Thank you for your grace!"
Compared to others, Xiao Jingyan, who has always been a prince, was not very excited, but being able to become a prince of the Ming Dynasty, his status is much higher than that of the previous princes.
"By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims that Mu Nihuang has made contributions in defeating Southern Chu and expanding the territory, and is granted the title of Prince of the County, the title of Prince of Zijing, hereditary, with a fief of 10,000 households, and a reward of 10,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver. This is decreed."
One person was shocked.
Nihuang looked at Xiao Jingli in confusion.[]
It was the first time that a woman was crowned a king.
The reason why she was crowned a princess, the same as a king, was because she was a woman and could not inherit the throne. Later, she made countless contributions, and being crowned a princess was too light. After all, princesses did not have much power, so she was simply given the title of a first-class military marquis.
After all, she had military merits.
But now, she was crowned a king.
But, it does feel good.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
Nihuang bowed.
"Well, to me, one is one and two is two. What's yours is yours. If you want Mu Qing to get a title, either he must make military achievements, or your merits must be beyond measure. Only then will I confer a title on Mu Qing."
"Starting today, the King of Yunnan is gone, and the plaque should be changed to Bauhinia Palace."
"As for who will inherit your title in the future, whether it is your daughter or your son, it is up to you."
Xiao Jingli instructed.
In fact, although Mu Nihuang's contribution is great, she should not be crowned as a king. Among them, there are also past contributions.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"Nihuang stood up to express her gratitude.
Xiao Jingli looked at Lin Shu with a smile in his eyes.
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor issued an imperial decree, saying that Lin Shu had made meritorious contributions in governing the country, maintaining peace in all directions, and managing the logistics, and was granted the title of Duke of Lin, with a hereditary fief of 5,000 households, and a reward of 10,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver. This is the decree.
Lin Shu understood what was meant, knowing that this was taking into account the Lin family's past contributions.
""Minister, thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
After saying that, Lin Shu looked at Zijing Wang Nihuang beside him with a little embarrassment.
It is a good thing to have two titles in one family, at least they have two children who can inherit the title in the future.
But in this ancient time where men are superior to women, it is embarrassing if your title is not as high as the other party.
In the future, will he live in Zijing Wang Mansion, or will Zijing Wang live in his Lin Guogong Mansion.
Nihuang also saw Lin Shu's gaze and laughed secretly, but she was already prepared to live in Lin Guogong Mansion in the future.
In this way, Zijing Wang Mansion will be left to Mu Qing.
