This censor can handle it, he really sprays when something happens

Chapter 127 King Conferred Ceremony
He was granted the title of king with a different surname, and the land was fifteen thousand miles away.

Emperor Tianfu's reward to Li Qing was not insignificant.

Except for the fiefdom in the north of the grassland, the town of Wan Yao, everything looks perfect.

But this point, only the important ministers in the court can see the clue.

Soldiers in the army and ordinary people will only sing praises to Emperor Tianfu, praising him as a wise king who does not hesitate to reward.

It can motivate more people to join the army, and inspire more soldiers to fight the enemy and make meritorious deeds.

Let the military merit system be thoroughly rooted in the hearts of the people.

No matter how humble your background is, no matter whether you are a servant or the head of Guizhou, as long as you have enough credit, even a king with a different surname can be a king!
On the nine steps, Emperor Tianfu looked at the officials of Chengtian Palace and said, "Why don't you meet the Demon King?"

All the ministers got up and bowed to Li Qing.

"See the Town Demon King!"

Town demon king.

Rising from the humble beginnings, to Sanyuan Jidi, and now to the current King of Demon Suppression.

Li Qing's journey along the way made everyone feel a lot of emotion.

Such a rapid hairline speed is rare in ancient times.

But in the same way, Li Qing's various abilities are also rare in ancient times.

Let the Dao of Confucianism manifest, create Confucianism, and open up another path of cultivation for the human race.

He did what even Confucius could not do!
Destroy the barbarians and seal the holy city of the barbarians.

Achieved a feat that no famous general has been able to accomplish throughout the ages!

"Everyone is welcome, please get up."

Li Qing said to everyone.

It's just that he didn't return the gift like before.

He is already a king with a different surname in Da Zhou, so he doesn't need to pay back to any ministers.

Apart from Emperor Tianfu, there is no need to salute anyone.

Otherwise, it is against the etiquette system and the etiquette law.

Emperor Tianfu looked at Li Qing in the palace, a cold light flashed in his eyes that only the eldest prince could see, and said:
"The King's Conferment Ceremony of the Demon King will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites."

The Minister of Rites responded: "The minister leads the decree."

Emperor Tianfu said to Li Qing again: "Suppressing the Demon King, basically more than [-]% of the counties and counties in the Great Zhou Dynasty have set up holy courts. After the completion of the King's Conferment Ceremony, I will preside over the holy courts in various places to award scholars. one thing."

Set up the Holy Academy, so that scholars can obtain academic status, so as to have Confucianism and Taoism supernatural powers.

This is the most important thing for Emperor Tianfu at present, and it is also the most important thing for Da Zhou so far.

There are 600 million troops in Liguo, and this is still Liguo's standing army, and no recruitment has been carried out.

But Da Zhou only has 300 million.

The northern border fought against the barbarians, and lost nearly 30.

Such a huge disparity gave Emperor Tianfu a headache every time he thought about it.

Only when scholars from all over the world have obtained academic degrees and have the strength comparable to monks of Taoism and Buddhism can they solve the current constraints that the Great Zhou is facing.

Even united with the country to counterattack the country.

And all of this is inseparable from Li Qing.

At least until Confucianism is completely on the right track, Li Qing is an indispensable soul.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, scholars get academic titles and open up literary palaces. This is the original intention of Changqing to establish Confucianism." Li Qing replied.

Emperor Tianfu nodded slightly, and continued to reward the officers and men who made great contributions in the northern border.

After setting a precedent for Li Qing.

Everyone in Chengtian Hall is full of expectations for Emperor Tianfu's reward.

Emperor Tianfu took over the list of land rewards and titles drawn up by the Ministry of Officials, read it through, and after confirming that there were no mistakes, he handed the list to Liu Tong, the eunuch in the palace.

The eunuch in the palace held the list, took a step forward, and read aloud:

"Princess Changning took over the banner of the head coach when Duke Zhen was injured, and guarded Canglan City in place of Lord Zhen, resisting the barbarian army of 150 million for nearly two months!
In the follow-up, he went deep into the grassland and completely wiped out the barbarians, and made great achievements.

According to the merit, he should be awarded the title of Siche Shuchang!The annual salary is 850 shi! "

Siche Shuchang is the tenth rank in the twentieth rank nobility system.

Specializes in royal affairs.

Not only has the title of military merit, but also has real power.

"Thank you, Father!"

After Princess Changning thanked her, the eunuchs in the palace continued to read down the list one by one.

After reading the names of twenty or thirty titles and honors, he remained like a robot without any emotion.

Until he saw a name he was extremely familiar with, his pupils shrank suddenly.

The expression on his face became extremely complicated.

"Wei Que, the governor of the East Factory, beheaded more than a hundred heads of the barbarians, and led the eunuchs and factory guards of the East Factory to sneak into the barbarian tents many times, attacking and killing the barbarian generals and three ten thousand heads.

According to meritorious service, he should be granted a public vehicle, with an annual salary of three hundred stones. "

The public ride is almost the limit that most of the blood-stained soldiers can achieve after fighting for most of their lives.

When it comes to the title of public servant, it belongs to the high title in the [-]th rank system, and is no longer a low title.

At the same time, public servants have the right not to bow to the county magistrate!

And you can also take a public car!
It is a symbol of status and glory to take the official car of the imperial court.

After Wei Que heard that he was appointed, he was always calm, but at this moment he was so excited that his breath became short of breath.

He is just a eunuch and an eunuch.

There is even a day when he will be awarded a knighthood for meritorious deeds!
With the title of public ride, when he returned to his hometown, it was really a return to his hometown, honoring his ancestors!

Wei Que knelt down on the ground with a slap, his voice trembling, and he said gratefully:
"My servant thanked Your Majesty for your grace! This servant is so determined that he will repay His Majesty's kindness to the death and be loyal to the country!"

slaves.

Even though Wei Que has been conferred the title of public servant at this moment and can call himself a minister, he still calls himself a slave.

This made Emperor Tianfu very satisfied.

The self-proclaimed slave girl means that in Wei Que's mind, he is always the servant of Emperor Tianfu.

Domestic slaves and foreign ministers, these are completely two concepts.

Emperor Tianfu said: "Get up, the imperial court employs people regardless of their origin. You have made great achievements with a crippled body, and you should be a model for the entire army. I also know the heroism of Dongchang on the battlefield this time. After returning, continue to strengthen Training for the East Factory."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Wei Que stood up, with excitement and excitement on his face.

Liu Tong, the eunuch in the palace holding the roll call, was so sour in his heart, he was so envious of Wei Que that his facial features were distorted.

Seven words flashed across his mind - the eunuch should be like Wei Zhongxian!

He also imagined making contributions like Wei Que, and he also imagined being knighted and honored like Wei Que, honoring his ancestors!
But as Emperor Tianfu's personal eunuch, he doesn't have this opportunity!

After Wei Que, there were more than a dozen people who made great contributions.

It wasn't until after the sun had completely set that the rewards for meritorious deeds in Chengtian Hall finally came to an end.

As for the rewards of the rest of the soldiers in the army, they will be reported by Duke Zhen Guo and Princess Changning, and the official department will make unified arrangements.

……

Yong'an Palace.

Emperor Tianfu leaned on the dragon bed.

Ever since Liguo and the barbarians invaded the country at the same time, his heartstrings have been in a state of tension, and he suffers from insomnia almost every day.

It wasn't until this period of time that the barbarians were exterminated that they could sleep peacefully for a few days.

After drinking a bowl of calming soup, Emperor Tianfu said to the eldest prince who was waiting on the side: "Ganer, if you are a king after a hundred years, how will you deal with Li Qing?"

The eldest prince's heart shuddered.

Knowing that this is another test for Emperor Tianfu to himself.

In fact, since he assisted Emperor Tianfu in supervising the country, Emperor Tianfu has been testing him to see if he can become a qualified king.

The eldest prince pondered for a moment, and after organizing his words, he said unhurriedly:

"After today, the prestige of the Demon Suppressing King among the people and the army will reach an unprecedented height.

At the same time, because of Confucianism, almost all the ministers in the court in the future will be awarded by him and be favored by him.

Twenty years later, the King of Demon Suppression will have an unparalleled reputation and prestige among the people, the army, and the court.

This prestige is even greater than that of a king.

As a king, he doesn't need ministers with high achievements, let alone ministers with more prestige than the king.

As long as the Zhenyao King completes the mission he should complete, he can be killed, and he must be killed. "

Emperor Tianfu did not comment on whether the eldest prince's words were right or wrong.

Instead, he continued to ask: "Today, I was forced to have no choice but to make Li Qing a king with a different surname.

Even though his fief is in the north of the grassland, close to the Wan Yao Kingdom, I still feel uneasy.

Li Qing now has the strength to kill any strong man below the high-ranking monks. Will he be able to reach what he calls a great Confucian of the five realms, or even a semi-sage or a sub-sage in ten or twenty years?
At that time, how to kill him? "

The Qi Luck Golden Dragon condensed by the Qi Luck of the whole country in the Great Zhou Dynasty can kill first-rank powerhouses regardless of the loss of the country's luck.

However, according to Li Qing's description, the Great Confucians of the Five Realms, Semi-Saint and Sub-Saint, are far above the first rank.

The Luck Golden Dragon was helpless.

What Emperor Tianfu is most worried about is that Li Qing will reach a height above Da Zhou in the next ten or twenty years.

The eldest prince smiled, and said: "Father, if the King of Demon Suppression can really cultivate himself, regulate his family, rule the country and the world, become a great Confucian of the five realms, and become the king of the Great Zhou, there is no reason to kill him.

If he becomes a half-sage or a sub-sage, it proves that he has no private thoughts in his heart, and he will be promoted to the altar.

Coerce him to serve the Great Zhou with public opinion and the ambition of Confucianism to serve the country.

At that time, the living Demon Suppressing King could still help me to unify the seven kingdoms of the human race in Da Zhou.

Of course, no one can tell what the future holds.

At least for now, Da Zhou needs the Demon King. "

Emperor Tianfu still didn't comment on the eldest prince's words, but just waved his hand and said: "I'm tired, you go down."

"My son retire."

The eldest prince bowed and exited Yong'an Palace.

Emperor Tianfu looked at his leaving back and sighed.

"It is said that my eldest son is ruthless, and my second son is a woman's benevolence. But in my opinion, the eldest son is the real woman's benevolence, and the second son is even more ruthless.

What kind of saint is not a saint, what kind of selfishness is not selfishness.

As long as there is a threat to the imperial power, it is not allowed to exist, and everything must be eradicated.

Not to mention Li Qing, even if Kong Sheng is alive, I will not allow the existence of Kong Sheng!
State-owned saints, who knows the emperor? "

the other side.

The eldest prince who left Yong'an Palace gradually restrained the smile on his face.

After walking for a long distance, he turned to look at the brightly lit Yong'an Palace.

He murmured in a low voice: "Father, you have been the emperor for too long, so you have never been willing to trust anyone.

If the King of Suppressing Demons is really selfless, why isn't he worthy of reuse?And why had to get rid of him?

Just because his prestige might overshadow the emperor?
The son-in-law believes that as an emperor, the most important thing is to govern the country well with the help of the ministers, so that the people can live a stable life.

The emperor's own prestige is not worth mentioning compared with the entire Great Zhou.

Erchen wanted to tell you several times, but you are getting old and become more and more suspicious.

Erchen dare not say. "

The eldest prince shook his head, and sighed exactly like Emperor Tianfu.

……

The next day.

The sun is just right, and the blue sky is merciless.

Today's Shengjing is more lively than yesterday when the army triumphed.

Emperor Tianfu led the horse, and the eldest prince drove the chariot, which became the talk of all the people in Shengjing after dinner.

The Zhuangyuan building was once again overcrowded following the explosive news released by the shopkeeper Xie Yuekun.

Under the expectant eyes of hundreds of guests at the scene, the shopkeeper Xie Yuekun held the Xingmu and knocked it down heavily.

"Speaking of which, in Chengtian Hall yesterday, His Majesty conferred knights and honors on the soldiers who went to the barbarians this time. You know, what kind of nobles was conferred on Duke Anguo, who killed millions of troops in Wenwenzhen and seven-killed the barbarians in Beiyongzhen?"

The guests here, the most unbearable thing is Xie Yuekun's appetite.

A few short-tempered ones immediately started cursing.

"Shopkeeper, you really need to change your appetite-inducing problem. It's just the beginning, and you're just trying to whet your appetite?"

"Tell me, shopkeeper, you always whet your appetite like this, and one day you will lose your appetite, and your restaurant's business will be ruined by then."

Because of Xie Yuekun's profession, seeing someone swearing and threatening, instead of panicking, he became excited.

"It's said that yesterday's army conquered the barbarians triumphantly, and His Majesty rewarded them for their merits. In the battle of destroying the barbarians, Duke An's achievements are undoubtedly the number one.

According to the military merit system implemented by the Great Zhou not long ago, the land that the imperial court wanted to reward Anguogong was nearly half of the territory of the Great Zhou!
So much territory, of course, can't be taken out, can't be snatched from the hands of the people, right?

Your Majesty Shengming, certainly not so.

Later, the eldest prince thought of a strategy.

Duke An granted the holy city of the barbarians. After the destruction of the barbarians in this battle, all the territories of the barbarians belonged to Da Zhou.

The eldest prince suggested that the barbarian territory be divided into two, and that the land [-] miles north of the barbarian grassland be awarded to Duke An.

His Majesty accepted the suggestion of the First Prince, and named Duke An the King of Demon Suppression!

This is the second king with a different surname in my Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was also named a king with a different surname for his military exploits! "

The guests of Zhuangyuan Building were stunned when they heard this.

Wang with a different surname!
They knew that Li Qingli's achievements were unprecedented.

But being named king with a different surname was never expected.

Most of the people who come and go to Zhuangyuan Building are scholars.

All of a sudden, the entire Zhuangyuan building was in an uproar.

They all lamented that the military merit system of the Great Zhou Dynasty is really an excellent channel to rise.

As long as you have enough credit, you can even be a king!

Xie Yuekun, the treasurer of Zhuangyuan Building, continued: "Everyone, there is news from the Ministry of Rites. Four days later, it will be an auspicious day. At that time, a grand ceremony will be held for the Zhenyao King.

And according to the gossip that the old man heard today, it seems that Naye Sea Dragon King will also represent the Dragon Palace to attend the ceremony of conferring the king of the demon king.

But this is the first time that the Dragon Race has appeared in the territory of the Human Race in thousands of years! "

The eyes of the guests in the Zhuangyuan Building were about to pop out.

dragon!
This is the totem of the human race!
Ever since the Human Emperor, the Dragon Clan has rarely intersected with the Human Clan.

But it doesn't hinder the human race's natural affection for the dragon race.

Now it is known that the dragon clan, and even a dragon king, is going to personally attend Li Qing's king ceremony.

This news is even more shocking than Li Qing being named king with a different surname!

"Shopkeeper, why did the Sea Dragon King attend the king's conferment ceremony of the Demon King?"

The shopkeeper, Xie Yuekun, smiled, and said proudly: "It's still a gossip, it is said that the Sea Dragon King wants his daughter to worship under the Demon King's door, and learn the principles of sages from the Demon King.

Let me tell you, the theory of suppressing the demon king is really powerful, and it has even spread to the dragon clan.

Yehai Dragon King's daughter, if we really worship Zhenyao King as our teacher, we Dazhou scholars will have too much face when facing scholars from other six countries. "
