The triumphal ceremony is certainly not so simple, going to the Temple of Heaven to make a vow, the temple to worship the ancestors, etc., are indispensable, and then there is a feast......

These were all omitted, and only said that as soon as this matter was dealt with, Wen Yi called Gan Xian, Chen Xiu, Gu Yi, Wei Ran, Zhou Qi and others to the Guangming Palace.

"How's the merit accounting, when will the list be determined?"

Everyone looked at Gu Yi, and it was the Ministry of Rites who took the lead in this matter, so he could only answer:

"Your Majesty, the calculation has been completed and is being reviewed, and the list can be released in a week."

Wen Yi nodded and asked, "Let's give you a rough introduction." ”

Gu Yi said without thinking: "This time the merits are calculated, and there are 417 knighthoods and 6,862 honors. ”

"Among them, there are three dukes, seven county marquises, and fifteen county marquis...... The rest are all uncles...... There are seventy-two guards in the ranks, and five hundred and ninety-one of the four captains......"

The rest of the people were also excited when they listened, even Gan Xian was no exception. This is no longer a personal honor or disgrace, but a relationship with the wealth of the family, and no one can handle it calmly.

Everyone didn't ask who the three dukes were, they didn't need to ask at all, they must be Xue Dayuan, Chai Ben and Gan Xian.

Except for the three of them, whoever becomes this duke will be criticized, don't want to be a person in the rest of your life, everyone is more concerned about whether the marquis has his own name.

Wen Yi looked at everyone and said, "Do you think that the position of the prince is too little?" ”

Everyone hurriedly said, "Don't dare." ”

In fact, there are too few, only twenty-five, but of course this cannot be said to people's faces.

Wen Yi said: "Needless to say, I also think that this time the duke is too few, which is not in line with the atmosphere of a great country, and I can't wait to reward one hundred and eighty dukes at one time." ”

"But don't forget that the world is not yet unified...... If we take the ultimate goal of dominating the world, how many people do you think are qualified to be princes? ”

"If you feel that your title is low, then work hard and strive to make greater contributions in the future battle for deer, and at that time the court will never be stingy with the position of prince."

Everyone was ashamed of what they said, and said, "It's the shallowness of the ministers, please forgive your majesty." ”

Wen Yi stretched out a hand and said: "Five years, five years at most, I will go north to end the troubled times." You can use this as a node to prepare for this war. ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and finally there was a definite time.

Later, Wen Yi asked Gu Yi a special question: "What level is Uncle Liu at?" ”

Gu Yi replied: "Because he did not participate in the battle for the founding of the country, Uncle Liu's merits are only enough to be a baron. ”

Wen Yi frowned and said, "He saved my life, but it's only enough for the viscount?" ”

Gu Yi hurriedly said: "It's the minister's negligence, please forgive your majesty, this will make people recalculate." ”

Wen Yi shook his head secretly, the shortcomings of letting Liu Bo stay in Langhu are here, and it is easy to be ignored when he is away from Taiyuan, the center of power.

Even the old acquaintances who fled from the north together almost forgot about him. That's why it is said that it is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity.

"Don't calculate, since his surname is Liu, he will be named Liu Guogong."

Liu Guo was a vassal state of the Zhou Dynasty, and the fief was in Yuzhou, not far from Uncle Liu's hometown.

Everyone didn't dare to object except envy, after all, he did carry back the seriously injured and dying Wen Yi back and took care of it all the time.

This is a real life-saving grace.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that after so much time, Wen Yi still remembered, and named him the prince of the country because of this.

……

The emperor summoned the ministers to discuss the matter of the knighthood, which naturally could not be hidden, and soon spread all over Mengqi City, which naturally caused widespread discussion, and quickly overwhelmed the matter of Funan's internal attachment in terms of popularity.

Everyone is speculating about who will be knighted, and fantasizing about how nice it would be if they could.

The matter of Liu Bo being named Liu Guogong has become the focus of discussion, and an ordinary old man has become a Guogong in one step, which is indeed full of drama.

Many people feel envious and jealous of him, and some people feel that he is lucky...... But more people are admired for Wen Yi's not forgetting the old grace.

Xue Dayuan, Chai Ben, Xiao Baishan and other elders were silent at first when they heard the news, and then they all felt remorse.

Whatever the reason, they did forget about the old man all these years.

In previous years, people would give a gift during the festival, but in recent years, even symbolic gifts have been given.

The real reason is very clear in their hearts, it is nothing more than that they feel that the gap between the identities of the two parties is getting wider and wider, and there is no kinship, so there is no need to bother with this.

If Wen Yi hadn't mentioned it this time, this matter would have passed so quietly, and no one might remember Uncle Liu anymore.

But now Wen Yi not only remembers, but also wants to crown him as the prince of the country, then everything is different. This feeling must be picked up again and framed.

So hundreds of letters and gifts were sent to Langhu by merchant ships.

Wen Yi only sighed heavily after hearing about this, and then wrote four words on the paper: Don't forget your original intention.

These letters and gifts were delivered to the Liu Mansion in Langhu as quickly as possible.

Speaking of which, Uncle Liu was not treated by him, and no one dared to treat him. After all, Wenyi will give him gifts every New Year's holiday, and he has never stopped.

No matter who is the governor of Langhu, he will not be offended.

Even if he knew that he was an old man who followed the emperor, he could send hundreds of letters and gifts at one time, and the people who sent the letters were all powerful factions in the DPRK and China, which still shocked everyone up and down Langhu.

Hurriedly inquired about the situation, only to learn that Uncle Liu was made a national prince. This is good, the whole Langhu Lake is boiling.

Everyone came to visit.

It's just that Uncle Liu behaved very indifferently, and he didn't look excited at all, as if he was not the one who was crowned the Duke of the Kingdom.

Everyone didn't think much about it, but they just sighed that Uncle Liu had a high level of cultivation and was not moved by external objects.

Others don't know the situation, but Liu Ku knows his father best and knows that he is not this kind of person, so it is very strange why this is happening.

After sending the guests away, he asked his own questions.

Uncle Liu didn't answer him directly, but asked the servant to fry two side dishes, warm a pot of wine, and said, "Come here, have a drink with me." ”

Liu Ku picked up the wine jug and poured two glasses, and said, "Didn't you allow me to drink before?" ”

Liu Bodao: "I'm happy to make an exception for you to drink it once today, but after today, if you dare to touch me and break your legs...... Come, let's meet one. ”

Liu Ku raised the cup and touched it, and after drinking it, he grinned spicily: "So many people like to drink it, I thought it was so delicious, but I didn't expect it to be so unpleasant." ”

Uncle Liu smiled: "If you don't like it, don't drink it, just know what it tastes like, so as not to make you curious in the future." ”

"Your Majesty never drinks alcohol, and he doesn't drink a drop of alcohol. I asked him why, and he said that drinking would make a mistake. He also said that if a person can't even control his own mouth, how can he achieve great things? ”

Liu Ku ate a few mouthfuls of food in succession before he eased up, and then said curiously: "What kind of person is Your Majesty?" ”
