Li Cong was indeed excited.

Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, how many years have the Great Zhou Emperors dreamed, and now the dream has finally come true in his hands, not to mention Lu You, even he Li Cong wants to be famous in history and will be famous for a hundred years.

How could he not be agitated or excited, how could he not be grateful?

To be honest, he owes the couple a lot, and with the credit of these two people, he could have been crowned a marquis as early as Lu You came down from the battlefield, but the armistice agreement had not yet been signed at that time, and the sixteen states of Yanyun had not completely reached the hands of Da Zhou, so he was afraid that it would be difficult for the court to convince everyone, so it was delayed until today.

Also, there is another resistance to this matter from the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is worried that giving Lu You the title of marquis at this time will definitely cause the Lu family to be dissatisfied with Yan Yu, and maybe she will mention the divorce or divorce again, after all, if Yan Yu hadn't intervened back then, Lu Ming would not have divorced Yan Yan, and there would be nothing to do with Lu You in these glories today.

But Li Cong is just the opposite, he knows that Yan Yan's efforts over the years are to prove that he is better than Yan Yu, just to suppress the Lu family and make the Lu family regret it, he has to fulfill her, he must fulfill her!

The courtiers in the audience stood up when they saw that the emperor was excited, and moved out the root cause of Emperor Taizu's death, what else could they say?

"Your Majesty, the old ministers have no opinion, but whether this hereditary replacement can be considered again, otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public." Wang Shuo stood up again.

Because he has no in-law relationship with the Lu family in these four kilometers, he can only come out and say this, in order to appease the unwillingness of the twelve marquis.

"Yes, the emperor, he is also a marquis, why can he be hereditary?" Zhu Tao hurriedly followed.

"It's very simple, with him being the Marquis of Pingyan, with his military exploits and the contributions of their husband and wife! I said that as long as there is military merit, you can add attack, when the prince of Dingnan Hou died in Nanyue, I specially gave Dingnan Hou three more generations, and the last two Pingxi Marquis have meritorious service in quelling the rebellion, and the first emperor has also attacked one generation, there are still such examples, do you still use me to list? Li Cong swept to the audience after asking.

Everyone saw that this was a precursor to Li Cong's anger, but they all quieted down.

Li Cong didn't squeak when he saw this, and looked at Wang Shixiu.

Wang Shixiu is the right minister of Zhongshu Province, and some major decisions are generally made through him, but the problem is that when the three prime ministers entered the palace together yesterday, the emperor did not propose to make a marquis?

However, Wang Shixiu didn't care about asking, and hurriedly stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that General Lu's military exploits are enough to make a marquis, not only will he not disobey the public, but on the contrary, it will inspire those promising young students to better devote themselves to the battlefield and officialdom, and make contributions to the country. ”

Xu Liangxing saw that Wang Shixiu agreed, and after a little consideration, he also stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the words of the king's right minister." ”

Wen Wenshan saw that the two of them agreed, and he quickly expressed his position, but he also mentioned that since it was a reward for meritorious deeds, the heroes of this battle and the heroes of the peace talks should be rewarded.

Li Cong also agreed with this, Lu Duan, Lu Zhu, Yan Peng, Yan Ai and others had already been rewarded last time, so this time the focus was on rewarding the personnel of the peace talks, including the military department Shangshu and others.

However, Lu You's reward was the most generous, the marquis, the hereditary replacement, and the award of 7,000 acres of Yongye land, as well as 3,000 taels of gold.

This gift is not small, and it is about to catch up with the four princes of the year, but then again, the merits of these two families are indeed not small, both men and women are like this, and they deserve this glory.

Therefore, after a short exchange of ears, the hall was quiet again, because Lu You stood up, and everyone remembered that the main characters had not yet spoken.

Lu You first saluted the emperor respectfully, "Qi Yu Emperor, the minister is afraid, the minister is a white Ding, ignorant and ignorant to break into the battlefield, fortunately the emperor is kind and lenient, so that the minister can show his life revenge, although this battle the minister thinks that the minister has used the power of the famine, but compared to the ancient foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is only a little bit of strength, and he can't afford to be so gracious, and ask the emperor to take back his life, and the minister and the inner son will meet to enter the imperial examination, the minister... ”

Lu Ming, who was standing in front, heard these words and hurriedly stood up, and also bowed to Li Cong, "Enlighten the emperor, the minister has thanked the emperor for his brother, my brother can have today, and the emperor's trust and cultivation are inseparable, the emperor is smart and wise, the heart is the same as the sun and the moon, loving and generous, virtue and the greatness of the universe, seeking talent is thirsty, and always has the heart of trying to govern, the brother is willing to be loyal to the kui weed, and can make this immortal achievement, it is the emperor's luck and the luck of the Lu family is the luck of the Great Zhou, the minister congratulates the emperor and congratulates the emperor, and also congratulates the brother and brother." ”

"That's right, I can meet this rare genius in a hundred years, it is indeed my great luck, and it is also the luck of your Lu family and the luck of Da Zhou, but Lu Shizi is not bad, he can take back Jinyang and Bingzhou, and he can also defend Jinyang and Bingzhou for me, your credit is not small, your father and son have guarded this northern defense line for me together, and the three of them working together is also a good story, not bad, not bad. In the next three years, I hope that Lu Shizi can work hard and make persistent efforts to create a peaceful, stable, prosperous and prosperous Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, I will wait and see. Li Cong said as he walked down the steps, came to Lu Ming, and reached out to pat Lu Ming's shoulder.

Lu Ming was excited, and hurriedly bowed and replied: "The minister is afraid, and the minister will do his best to live up to the holy grace." ”

"Just do your best." Li Cong smiled.

Then he walked past Lu Ming and walked in front of Lu You, and also reached out and patted Lu You's shoulder, "If you say that you are stupid, you are still really stupid, whether it is a scientific examination or a battle achievement, it is all based on your own ability, this Pingyan Hou belongs to you, remember, this is just the beginning, I hope you will live up to my heart and guard this country for me." ”

"Go back to the emperor, the ministers will be." Lu You also bowed and replied, and after a while, he raised his head and looked at Li Cong, "Your Majesty, I, I'm not dreaming, right?" ”

To be honest, he really didn't expect the emperor to give him the title of marquis, and he was still hereditary, so he had been dizzy for half a day, which was why he didn't dare to speak at first, because he couldn't believe it was true.

The hereditary Pingyan Hou, he didn't dare to dream of it.

Li Cong saw his stupid appearance, raised his foot and kicked him, "Does it hurt?" ”

"It hurts." Lu You's mouth grinned.

"Pain is not a dream. Silly boy, go back and accompany your daughter-in-law silly music. Li Cong couldn't bear to look directly at Lu You's stupid appearance, and turned around in disgust.

Who knew that Lu Youyi was excited and replied, "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll go back and tell her that I finally did it, and I finally didn't insult her." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu You's body had already run to the door.
