In addition, there is also General Xiao. Although his old man had already retired from the court, if he hadn't led his troops into the palace under the critical situation this time, he successfully rescued the monarch from Sima Tingfei's men. I am afraid that the current Xia Kingdom has already changed dynasties, and the people will still be caught in the flames of war.

But Xiao Xuan has only just jumped to the top of the ranks, and the old man is not an official in the court, so it is not appropriate to be an official. The monarch thought about it, and finally wrote down the holy decree with a stroke of the pen, and gave the old man the title of Duke of Ningguo. This should be the most appropriate.

In this way, in the entire Zhongjing City, if you want to talk about identity and status, in addition to the remaining two princes, the most powerful should be the Xiao family. Of course, Zhao Hui is not bad. He sat in the position of General Zhenyuan at a young age, and he was the first person in the previous dynasty. Speaking of which, this is thanks to Xiao Xuan's ability to recognize heroes at the beginning, otherwise Zhao Hui would probably still be living his idle life in Qingshui Village.

One after another the will was read out, and Ming's father-in-law was about to dry his throat. And when all the decrees had been spoken, he spoke about the king. But before that, Zhao Hui stood up and said to the monarch in front of many soldiers and civil and military officials: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't want to be added to the rank of knight and doesn't want gold, silver and jewelry, and Weichen has another request to ask Your Majesty for permission." With that, he knelt down on one knee and bowed to the king.

This move can startle the Ming Gonggong who announced the decree. After all, on such a happy occasion, if Zhao Hui said something that disappointed him, it would not be good for Long Yan to be angry at that time. He was about to open his mouth to persuade Zhao to retreat, but before he could speak, the monarch asked first: "Don't want to be added to the rank of knight, and you don't want gold, silver and jewelry, so tell me what you want?" ”

The monarch naturally understood himself as a young courtier. The other party is not tactful, and he has offended many people in the court, if it weren't for Xiao Xuan's protection, I'm afraid he would have been dragged into the water a long time ago. But rulers often like such generals the most: they don't know how to form gangs, they only obey the emperor's orders to fight on the battlefield, and they know what they should and shouldn't do. So the monarch still admires Zhao Hui very much.

Moreover, he believed that it was impossible for Zhao Hui to make any rude requests on such an occasion, so he did not see any change in the monarch's face when he was questioned. However, Zhao Hui's next words still caused a commotion.

"Wechen wants to ask His Majesty to marry Wechen!" Zhao Hui said solemnly.

Marriage? As soon as these two words came out, it was equivalent to throwing a pebble into the calm and waveless lake, and the people standing below quickly whispered. Even if they knew that the occasion was wrong, there were not many opportunities to gossip about Zhao Hui, so they wanted to seize this rare opportunity.

"Oh?" The monarch laughed, "I'm very curious, which young lady can get the blue eyes of General Zhenyuan, you might as well tell it and let everyone hear it." ”

The sound of discussion suddenly dissipated, and everyone looked back at Zhao, as if they were all waiting for him to give an answer. And Zhao Hui did not hesitate, and immediately said the words he had prepared a long time ago, "Li Jinshu, the goddaughter of General Zhenguo." ”

He did not mention his relationship with Jinshu, but deliberately linked Jinshu with Xiao Xuanyi. Zhao Hui did this, not that he felt that Jinshu was not worthy of him now, but that he didn't want others to pay attention to his brother-sister relationship with Jinshu.

Although they used to be called brother and sister to the outside world, if he said that he wanted to marry his sister in front of so many people, I am afraid that he would cause a lot of criticism for himself and Jinshu.
