Jing Yi went ahead and knelt down to salute respectfully, "Chu Jingyan, a grassroots man, kowtowed to His Majesty."
Xiao Chenghan looked at the woman wearing men's clothes not far from there and said, "Sleep."
Jing Yi said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then Jing Yi stood up.
Xiao Chenghan said: "Chu Jingyan, I have seen the winter wheat you have grown. Whole grains are good food. It's a great achievement that you can increase the wheat harvest by two stones, and the waterwheel that you make is also an incredible achievement." This can fix the drought problem in the field. The Kang you created can save many people from the cold in the winter. It's all thanks to you. I hope you continue to work hard in the future and continue to try to grow more grains with high yields. I have always been respected and punished
. Since Chu Jingyan made such a huge contribution to you, I will repay you. "
Xiao Chenghan waved his hand at Han Li.
Han Li took a few steps forward and opened the imperial decree in his hands, singing and shouting: "Chu Jingyan accepted the decision."
Jing Yi immediately knelt down.
Han Li began to read the imperial edict, "The Emperor said, today there is Chu Jingyan, who is not afraid of hardships and is tireless, and has created a new farming method. He has made a great contribution to our dynasty. He is a group talent. Today, Chu Jingyan was granted the title of Marquis of Anle. One house, I hope it will continue to work hard and make new achievements. Here goes!" All princes and ministers were under the emperor's decree
immediately stunned. A boy at such a young age is now a Marquis? Is it also a big house? Too easy too.
Jing Yi was also a little surprised, wondering what the emperor would do? Does she not know that she is a woman Why does she still bestow titles on him? Moreover, the title of marquis seemed to be a title commonly used by princesses.Does the emperor know that a woman deliberately gave him this title?
Xiao Yilin was also startled, the father had not mentioned this matter at all yesterday, too suddenly. And sooner or later the little girl will be returned to her daughter's body, and now she has been awarded the title of marquis, so if she regains her daughter's body in the future, she'll be, wouldn't it be said that he had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor?
At this moment, Yan Jishan, the Marquis of Ningyuan, stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Chu Jingyan has indeed made great achievements, but his achievements are not enough to bestow the title of Marquis. Please think twice, Your Majesty. " Later some ministers came out to talk about Chu
Jing. His banquet was too much, and it was inappropriate to give such a high title.
Xiao Chenghan looked at the anxious expressions of the ministers below and said cynically: "Why, are you jealous? You must also do good deeds. As long as you make a great achievement like Chu Jingyan, I will repay you as well. Don't ' "Don't be jealous of others.
I have always been very clear about rewards and punishments. Chu Jingyan increased the yield of wheat by two stones, and also created a new method of growing two crops a year. If the whole country grows crops according to this method, you know that the grain of our Jin state will be destroyed. How much increase? It is related to the life and death of the people and the stability of the courts. This incredible achievement. Do you still think about it? is it too much to make him a Marquis? I still think it's not enough." At this time, Duke Ding Lu
Wenpu stood up and bowed, he said, "Your Majesty, Master Chu has a heart for the country. He has planted high-yield grains, created new farming methods, and added waterwheels that can irrigate farmland. All of these are great achievements. His Highness rewarded those who had made great achievements, and granted him the title of Position Duke of Chu and Marquis indeed
the Wisdom of His Majesty." Seeing someone finally agreeing with him, Xiao Chenghan nodded and said: "Ding Guogong is right. I don't think the prize is enough. Deliver my wish, and give Chu Jingyan a hundred acres of fertile land, a thousand taels of gold. Chu Jingyan, you take orders."
Jing Yi saw that the Jin emperor had been determined. But it was simply inappropriate for a fifteen-year-old girl to be made a Marquis.
Jing Yi knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Caomin feels that she has yet to achieve such a great feat, so she is truly ashamed of His Majesty's gift. Please take it back. "Xiao Chenghan looked at the still calm little girl below and quietly nodded, then said:
"How can my wishes be changed from day to day? Since I have made a decision, I will never change it. Chu Jingyan, you need not underestimate yourself. Your achievements will last a long time. Forever, and you deserve this title. I hope you keep working hard and keep improving the seeds
Seeing his father seriously, Xiao Yilin said, "Jingyan, my father clearly rewarded and punished you. You've made great achievements and my father will reward you, so you can take orders." Anyway
.
Immediately Jing Yi knelt down and kowtowed, "Minister took the decision to thank."
Some of the ministers below saw that the more they persuaded the emperor to retract the order, the richer the emperor's reward, no one dared to persuade him anymore. . What if I persuade the emperor to increase his reward again?
Ever since Jing Yi accepted the decision, she became An Lehou of Jin Kingdom, an An Lehou whose true identity was a woman. Jing Yi felt unreal as if she was stepping on a cloud.
Most of the ministers in the palace were envious of Jing Yi being granted the title of Marquis at such a young age, some of them would never be able to reach such a high position in their lifetime.
Some ministers were really jealous, how could they be convinced that they were not as tall as a small puppet at such an age.
Among them, Yan Jishan, who was dismissed by the emperor in public today, was filled with hatred. It was so infuriating that she had the same status as a teenager at such an old age.
He had always wanted to be granted the title of duke of a country, but he could never do so, but now he had been equaled by a young man. And this brat was still on Xiao Yilin's side, Yan Jishan could not be happy.
Not only ministers in the palace, but also some princes. Although they did not take action to prevent Jing Yi from being given the title of Marquis, they also did not want people close to Xiao Yilin to be able to obtain such a high status.
But they did not speak because of their special identity, but the ministers they made spoke privately for them. But obviously they did not persuade the emperor to withdraw the order, even increasing the reward, which made them very depressed.
Among all the princes, only Xiao Yilin was truly happy for Jing Yi, the other princes could not be happy at all.
After taking to the court, Han Li stopped Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi, and the emperor wanted to meet them alone in Zichen Hall.
Xiao Chenghan looked at the two people walking together, and as they got closer, Xiao Chenghan could see the little girl's face clearly, she was very heroic and not at all feminine. I don't know if this little girl has changed her appearance or if she always looks like this.
After Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi saluted together, Xiao Chenghan said: "You all stop standing, sit down."
After sitting down, Xiao Yilin asked, "Dad, why do you want to become the knight Jing Yan?"
Xiao Chenghan He smiled and said: "What's the matter, Chu Jingyan has made a great contribution, shouldn't I reward her?"
Xiao Yilin looked at the little girl and said, "But Jingyan is a woman? No woman has ever been called a Marquis."
Xiao Chenghan said with a smile: "Who said women can't be given titles? As long as they have made great achievements, I will give them the same gift regardless of whether they are male or female. If there wasn't one before, then I would have bestowed a female marquis."
