This time the imperial edict was a reward for watchtowers, and the content praised Nuan Wenyitong again, saying that the watchtowers she designed had protected hundreds of thousands of people in the border areas from being killed and plundered by rogues and bandits, and had benefited the people in the border areas for generations to come. After making great contributions, she was granted the title of Princess of Hui'an County. She was also given two boxes of gold and silver jewelry, dozens of pieces of silk and satin, a box of precious furs, a precious coral ornament half a person's height, and the number one master craftsman. The plaque was inscribed by Yubi himself, as well as other tributes, etc., which filled two carriages.
He accepted the imperial edict warmly and happily.
That’s right, that’s right, from the village prince to the county lord, if she becomes the princess again, then she will be the lord of all kinds!
The county lord’s treatment is really good! Among those two boxes of jewelry were luminous pearls the size of an adult’s fist, which were priceless!
Nalan Jinnian's face was very dark. Brother Huang was going too far!
Actually kill first and then play!
Where is the promised princess
Now he is just a county leader!
Nuan Nuan handed each of Xiao Guizi and the other guards a purse, how dare they accept it.
Nuan Nuan also said what he just said.
Nalan Jinnian snorted coldly: "What's there to reward?"
warmth:"... ... ... "
Xiao Guizi's heart was roaring. What he was clearly delivering was an imperial edict for promotion and salary increase, but looking at King Jin's face, those who didn't know better thought he was here to deliver an edict for family extermination and annihilation!
Two imperial edicts were issued in one day. Wen Jiarui and others were still kneeling on the ground before they could recover.
County Lord! The emperor actually granted Sister Nuan the title of County Lord!
Xiangjun is shocking enough!
County Lord! This... This is an identity that only exists among the royal family and nobles, it is unattainable!
Mrs. Wang was so excited that she cried. Who would dare to say that her sister Nuan is the god of plague in the future? She would scratch him with her big ears!
"Dad, it's time to get up." Nuan Nuan reminded, helping Wang up by the way.
Wen Jiarui came back to his senses and stood up excitedly. With a happy look on his face, he wanted to leave someone to drink tea and rest in the mansion, and then return to Beijing to resume his life after dinner.
But how could Xiao Guizi dare to stay? Didn't he look at King Jin's face and see that he wanted to cut him into pieces
The emperor said that when he saw King Jin, he told him not to linger and to return to the capital quickly!
Eunuch Li understood why King Jin looked unhappy.
The emperor is unkind!
At that time, King Jin was in the imperial study room, but he was trying his best to win the title of princess for the head of Hui'an County. What was the situation like in the imperial study room at that time
At that time, Nalan Jinnian lazily leaned on the back of his chair and said casually: "If the emperor wants to reward her, just give her the title of princess! It's a mansion. The mansion is next to me on Yujin Street in Jianghuai Prefecture. A mansion, a thousand acres of fertile land, thousands of taels of gold, a few boxes of jewelry and the like and that’s enough.”
The emperor squirted out a mouthful of tea!
Is this reward a casual one
In the nearly twenty years since he took the throne, he has never given such a big reward to anyone!
Besides, can the princess grant titles at will
"That won't work! The princess is not appointed casually. Since ancient times, the princess has been born in Tianhuang noble family and has a noble status..."
Nalan Jinnian interrupted him coldly: "As long as your merits are high enough and you have made great contributions to the Nalan Kingdom, you can be crowned! The former King of Huainan can be crowned as the king of the opposite sex, with a fief and a private army, and the daughter of the King of Huainan is also Princess. Prince Ning is uneducated and spends all his time fighting cocks. His daughter is a princess! I heard that Prince Anping’s daughter also raised noodles. Such a person can be a princess, why can’t she? Just because she is just Common people, not royal relatives and nobles, do they even have to receive worse rewards than others?"
“…”
The emperor's forehead twitched. He really dared to give an example: "You all know that great achievements are so easy to achieve? A quarter of the entire Nalan Kingdom was conquered by the former King of Huainan!"
"The design of the watchtowers can protect hundreds of thousands of people on the frontier from the plundering and plundering of bandits and rogue bandits. The repeating crossbow with twenty arrows and the repeating crossbow with sixty arrows have made our dynasty's military strength rise to the forefront. The leader of several countries, even surpassing the peak period of Nalan Kingdom!
Nowadays, the wives of those officials in the capital have no achievements in scheming in the backyard. They are just like rice-boring insects. They can be married to their husbands and become high-class married women, royal wives!
Why can't she be given the title of princess as a woman who has enabled hundreds of thousands of people in the border areas to live and work in peace and contentment and ensured the long-term peace and stability of Nalan? "
Emperor: "..."
"But the ancestral system has regulations..."
"Rules are dead and set by people. Every dynasty has its own new rules! Maybe in the future, women will be able to serve as officials and become prime ministers!"
The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched, a woman joining the court as an official? How can this be!
The seventeenth brother's strong-mouthed rhetoric is really unmatched by anyone!
"The rules of our ancestors cannot be abolished. Whether the watchtowers can really protect the people on the frontier and whether the two crossbows can have the expected effect on the battlefield is unknown! This reward is too big to stop the crowd and make all officials obey."
Nalan Jinnian wanted to say something more, but the emperor stopped him with his hand: "Okay, I will make her the queen of the village, with a hundred taels of gold and a hundred acres of fertile land. The silver from the treasury is needed to prepare military pay, and it is impossible to get ten thousand taels of gold! Thousands of acres of fertile land. Not yet! And that, will the mansion on Yujin Street be too big? "
Nalan Jinnian looked at the emperor coldly: "Brother, aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the poor people in the world?"
Emperor: "......"
What a chill, this reward is already huge for a peasant girl!
He said that he was like a foolish king!
He is the richest in the world, and he is the poorest in the world!
All his wealth is used to reward others!
I don’t even have the chance to go out and spend time by myself. The emperor thought sadly.
"Okay, after the results of the watchtower come out, I will consider making her the princess. Okay!"
"Do what you say! Don't go back on your word!"
Emperor: "..."
Is he such a person
... ..
At that time, Eunuch Li admired Nalan Jinnian very much!
In this world, the only one who dares to talk to the emperor like this and is not blamed is King Jin!
No wonder King Jin is angry now!
The emperor is unkind!
Go back on your promise!
~
The emperor on the dragon throne sneezed several times in succession. Counting the time, his second eight hundred-mile urgent edict should have arrived, right
The emperor touched his nose.
It must be his seventeenth brother scolding him!
But now that I have received a huge reward, what else can I get in the future
Who knows if that girl will make greater contributions
You have to leave a way out!
It’s not easy to be an emperor!
This one needs to be rewarded, that one needs to be rewarded, but there are only so many things that can be rewarded. If you finish the reward once, what will you reward next time
Who can understand his difficulties
Damn it, sitting on this dragon chair, apart from eating better, I have no freedom of movement, no joy, sorrow or anger, not even the woman I love...,
There is a lot of money in the treasury, and everyone in the world thinks it belongs to him, but everyone in the world asks him for the money, and he is just a steward!
What fun is there in life
The emperor fell into a life of deep doubt!
After being depressed for a while, he stood up and went to Kangning Palace.
