Imperial Palace, inside Wenyuan Pavilion.

A court meeting has begun again.

This court meeting is still an old topic a few days ago, the canonization of Guogong, Marquis of Dinghai.

The previous time, it was because Chen Ying, the imperial historian of the right capital, strongly opposed it, and said that Guo An, the Marquis of Dinghai, colluded with Li Jinglong, the Duke of Caoguo, to massacre the children of the Chen family in Annan.

In this way, not only is it arrogant, but it will also make the people of Annan hate the Ming Dynasty very much.

In addition, all the courtiers also felt that this Marquis of Dinghai was indeed a little younger, and he still needed to hone it again.

However, who would have thought that as soon as they rejected the proposal on the front foot, Annan took the initiative to join the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, the Marquis of Dinghai was still very reckless, and dared to spit in the face of Chen Ying, the imperial history of the right capital, and even beat Chen Ying, the imperial history of the right capital, in front of Fengtian Palace, His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince.

The most important thing is that this Dinghai Marquis is still full of grievances, and they are not easy to refute these ministers, and the whole thing is a hob of meat!

Although Zhu Di did not participate this time, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi and more than half of the cabinet ministers, as well as Yuxin, the head of the household, all strongly supported him.

Some ministers did not object, even the right capital imperial history Chen Ying objected again and again, and even scolded Guo An, the Marquis of Dinghai, for being a minister, but he was weak and could only watch the court pass it.

Hearing Zhu Gaochi's report on the results of the court meeting, Zhu Di couldn't help but sneer.

"These civil officials, all of them are bullying the soft and afraid of the hard!"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Dad, the teacher has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, enough to be canonized as a duke!" ”

"It's nature!"

Zhu Di smiled faintly and said, "In this way, Guo Qing will be canonized as the Duke of Dingguo!" ”

"Father Emperor Shengming!"

Zhu Gaochi saluted with joy on his face.

Early the next morning, when Guo An was still lying on the bed leisurely, a team of eunuchs came outside the Dinghai Marquis' Mansion, and the eunuchs shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree, Dinghai Marquis Guo An accepts the decree!" ”

The entire Dinghai Hou Mansion was suddenly in chaos.

The housekeeper Guo Ang entertained the eunuchs with a courteous face, and as for Xu Yong, who was a hundred households, he ran to the backyard.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, Your Majesty's holy decree is here!"

"Lord Hou......"

"Your Majesty has come to the Holy Decree?"

On the bed, Guo An looked confused, then got up in a hurry, quickly dressed and put on shoes, and didn't have time to wash, so he hurriedly walked to the front yard.

When Guo An arrived in the front yard, everyone in the Dinghai Hou Mansion had already stood respectfully.

With Guo An's arrival, the eunuch slowly opened the decree.

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said that Guo An, the marquis of Dinghai, was known for his merits, and he planned to destroy Tatar first, and then conquered Annan, recovered my homeland of the Ming Dynasty, and greatly revitalized the country's prestige.

Therefore, I specially ordered the civil and military ministers to gather in the Que court, and agreed on the merit of the sea marquis, and all the officials were praised as good. Supporting the protection of the society, great contribution to the court, how can there be no reason not to appreciate.

Today, Guo An is the Duke of Dingguo, giving python robes and adding 10,000 food households. ”

Dingguo Gong, and 10,000 eaters?

Guo An's head was confused, and he couldn't believe it at this time, he was actually canonized as a national prince!

Although he doesn't have any official position, he is the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful Duke of the Kingdom except for the royal family!

Even if in the future, Zhu Gaochi or Zhu Zhanji's bastard boy doesn't like his Guo family, the descendants of his Guo family can still enjoy generous treatment, enjoy glory and wealth, and not be bullied.

Thinking about it, Guo An hurriedly received the decree and thanked the emperor.

The eunuch smiled slightly, sent the will to Guo An, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, this court meeting is the prince of Dingguo who was strongly promoted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and set for his grandfather. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's kindness, my father is grateful!"

Guo An said with emotion.

Seeing this, the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief.

This Dingguo Duke is deeply favored by His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as long as he does not dislike this Dingguo Gongzun title, he can go back to his life with peace of mind.

"Then, the villain will take his leave!"

"Go, go, I'll enter the palace tomorrow to thank you!"

Guo Anle said kindly.

The official bowed his hand slightly towards Guo An, and then left in a hurry with a group of people.

"Congratulations, sir!"

"Congratulations to ...... Hou Congratulations! ”

"Congratulations to ...... Master"

In the house, a congratulatory voice suddenly sounded, and everyone was full of joy.

Their lord was actually named the Duke of Dingguo like this, and when they go out in the future, their heads can be raised higher.

Guo An looked at Liu Baiwei on the side, "Is the title of Dingguo Gong good?" ”

Liu Baiwei replied with a smile: "It's good! ”

Guo An looked proud, "When this news comes back, my father will definitely be happy to go and worship his ancestors again!" ”

Liu Baiwei said with a smile: "The master will give the Guo family the glory of the ancestors, and bless the future generations, when you tell the ancestors, let them be happy and happy!" ”

Guo An nodded slightly, and looked at Guo Ang on the side.

"Such a big event, the house should celebrate, all the subordinates will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, the steward will be fifty taels, and you, the big butler, will be one hundred taels!"

"Thank you, sir!"

"Thank you, sir......"

Guo Ang hurriedly thanked him, this kind of reward, no one will refuse to ruin the fun!

As for Guo An, he took Liu Baiwei and walked inside.

It's just that, walking, walking, Guo An suddenly stopped and hurriedly opened the holy decree again!

Liu Baiwei asked worriedly, "Master, what's wrong?" ”

"That's not right!"

Guo An said, "The eunuch said that he would add 10,000 eaters to us, but he didn't say what kind of eaters they were and where they were!"

Moreover, there are already 1,000 eaters in Jiangjun Mountain, so we can't add it to the vicinity of Jiangjun Mountain!

This is not right, Your Majesty will not lie to me......"

Sure enough, after Guo An read all the words on the holy decree carefully, he didn't find any introduction to the eaters.

Zhu Laosi really lied to him, but he added it verbally, and the holy decree was vague, obviously it has not been officially determined!

Guo An couldn't help patting his head anxiously and said, "Alas, I'm really too easy to coax!" ”

On the side, looking at Guo An's appearance of wanting to cry without tears, Guo Lu's eyes were full of laughter and gloating.

That majesty is really a good person, he can actually bully his father, the big demon king!

"Okay, since the matter has come to this point, we can only wait until Your Majesty discusses this matter again, and then confirm this!"

Soon, Guo An returned to a calm face, "Anyway, we are not going to be able to get any serious fiefdoms in the Ming Dynasty!" ”

As he spoke, Guo An took the holy decree into the study and stored it in a wooden box for preservation.

Then, he picked up the pen and began to write a letter to Guo's father in Shunde Mansion to report the good news.

And on the other side, on the right capital of the Imperial History Mansion.

"Dingguo Gong, Dingguo Gong, how can he, a minister who relies on gifts to His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty is confused, when he Guo An was still a mere marquis, he was already so arrogant and domineering, and now that he has become a prince, isn't it even more lawless?"

On the side, the butler was full of fear.

Shouting, Chen Ying suddenly remembered something, raised her head violently, and shouted to the housekeeper: "In the evenings of the past few days, we must arrange a few more nursing homes and strictly inspect them, so as to prevent those thieves from sneaking in and setting fire again!" ”

The butler's eyes shrank and he nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, sir!"

But.

Chen Ying obviously has persecution illusions, so Guo An will not make such a low-level mistake.

As for Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, he was full of joy and received the holy decree sent to him by Zhu Di.

After capturing Annan, Cao Guogong is a general, although Guogong is already the highest, but he can also reward other property or food!

In addition, Liu Sheng, Zhang Yu and other generals who made great contributions to Annan were also made earls!
