Volume 1 Chapter 258 Tian Zi Hou
Feng He's face was filled with excitement and pride.
Because his elder brother was given an official title.
Although he also didn't know how important the position of the third-rank Shaoqing was.
But he heard what Zhang Ruling said.
The position of solving cases in the south of the city.
He heard the word "solve a case" particularly clearly.
That must be the high-ranking official sitting in the hall.
In his opinion, only high-ranking officials can solve cases.
He smiled and said to his elder brother: "Brother, you can do it."
Ye Tingmu rolled his eyes at him without saying anything.
The bitterness at the corner of his mouth was particularly noticeable.
I couldn't help but complain in my heart, "What the hell is possible?"
Do you need this official position?
Or in other words, what's the point of him being this official?
Is he short of money?
His apprentice was extremely wealthy and could easily spend hundreds of thousands of silver coins.
Also, although the battle of Shuiyunjian was brutal.
But to be honest, he touched the bodies of four saints.
The amount of treasures in the storage bags of the four saints would shock you if I told you.
Without boasting, he now has hundreds of vitality pills and a lot of high-level pills.
There are also a lot of mid-grade spiritual weapons.
He even got a bunch of talismans from the Taoist priest.
Li Gou had 100 black talismans at the beginning, not to mention the others, there were thousands of red talismans.
He is not short of money at all.
Lack of power?
Obviously there is no shortage of it. My second brother is a prince, and even the future emperor of Kyushu. Do I need to be an official? It's funny.
Feng He has the current emperor as his backer, and he also has saints following him.
I have both power and money, so why should I become an official? What is the meaning of being an official?
What he lacks now is strength, strength strong enough to tear apart all conspiracies and enemies.
Wouldn't it be nice if you had that much time to practice swordplay and take care of the kids?
Why do you want to be this official?
When he thought about punching in at work, the smile on his face became as bitter as if he had eaten a bitter melon.
Seeing that the eunuch was about to take out the summons, but no one in the field stood up to stop him, Ye Tingmu could no longer sit still.
He quickly spoke to Chaotianque on the throne, his tone slightly hurried.
"Your Majesty, absolutely not. With my limited experience, I am not up to the task. It is better to take a long-term approach."
Upon hearing this, Chao Tianque waved his sleeves.
"I have made up my mind. You don't need to say anything more."
As the emperor, he naturally knew Ye Tingmu's little thoughts.
How could it be what he wanted?
Regarding today's events, both he and Zhang Ruling were concerned.
The two of them were just going through the motions.
The arrangements for Ye Tingmu's return to Beijing had actually been decided long ago.
No, the summons has been prepared in advance and only needs to be read out.
In his opinion, Ye Tingmu not only saved Feng He.
It is a rare talent.
How can we allow such a person to become a waste?
It will definitely be used.
In the future, he will be asked to assist Feng He and shoulder the heavy responsibility of the imperial cause.
Before that, what is needed is tempering.
Since it is a training, it is not good to give a high official position, and it is naturally not good to give a low official position either.
After much thought, the position of Shaoqing of the Four Cities is the best.
Rule over South City and make all decisions.
He also commanded tens of thousands of government soldiers and detectives, and was one of the few civil servants with real power.
This way he can let go.
Ye Tingmu curled his lips.
How could he not guess Chao Tianque's intention?
The two of them were singing and shouting together today, just to set a trap for themselves.
It seems that it is impossible to shirk responsibility.
What else can we do, except accept it.
You can't slap the emperor in the face in front of so many people.
Why……
As Chao Tianque finished speaking.
The old man also took out an imperial edict from behind.
Announcement:
By the will of Heaven, the Emperor summoned you.
Ye Tingmu escorted the fourth prince Chao Yi all the way back to the capital safely, making a great contribution to stabilizing the country.
I also heard that he has great talent and cares about the world. Such talent should be used to stabilize the country.
Therefore, I hereby grant him the post of Shaoqing of the third rank, in charge of the affairs of Nancheng, and also confer the title of Marquis on Ye Tingmu, with the title: Shujian, and the privilege of not kneeling when meeting the emperor. This will take effect immediately. I hope that he will make great achievements for our Jiuzhou Empire in the future. I hereby decree this.
As the saint finished reading.
Everyone present was shocked.
It was as if a huge wave of joy was rising in my heart.
The ministers looked at each other in amazement.
But no one dared to speak.
But the shock and surprise in his eyes could not be hidden.
Chao Xiao did the same, he clenched his fists subconsciously.
Directly granted the title of nobility.
Or is it Tianzihou?
In his opinion, it was too hasty and too ridiculous.
Official positions in Kyushu.
The ranks increase in order from the ninth rank to the first rank.
And above the first grade.
First the marquis, then the king.
This marquis is above all civil and military officials.
Although a marquis is not as good as a king.
There are more marquises than kings, but not by much more.
Which one of them has not made great contributions to the country?
This period is also divided into three categories.
First class: two-character Hou Tianhou.
Second class: Three-character Marquis.
Third Class: Four-character Marquis
Today, Ye Tingmu was granted the title of marquis simply for sending the Fourth Prince back.
Or this top-level Tianzi candidate
Isn't that ridiculous.
In fact, he was not the only one who thought this way at the moment.
Everyone present was jealous.
Some people have hatred in their eyes, and some people have resentment in their eyes.
Naturally, some people are envious.
A twenty-one-year-old Marquis of Tianzi has never appeared in the history of Jiuzhou.
But now, there is such a person standing right in front of them.
Moreover, this person is neither of the Chao family bloodline nor the descendant of a general or prime minister. He is just an ordinary scholar.
He was not only a marquis, but also had real power among the civil officials.
It is a privilege only enjoyed by kings.
It can be said that at this moment Ye Tingmu is already the number one person under the king in Jiuzhou.
His status is so high that he is second only to a few people but above tens of millions.
How could they accept this and not be jealous?
However, the emperor's attitude today is very clear.
Whether it is Feng He or Ye Tingmu.
He will protect him to the death, and anyone who dares to move will die.
Now that Wang Changsheng has passed away, he has naturally become more confident.
So even if it was Chao Xiao, he could only keep silent at this moment.
Ye Tingmu also looked confused.
Hou?
How come he was suddenly granted the title of marquis?
I didn't react for a moment.
At this time, Chao Tianque coughed lightly with a smile on his lips.
"Why, you haven't accepted the order yet?"
Ye Tingmu knew that after receiving the imperial edict, he was powerless to change the situation.
Although he was reluctant, he still bowed and received the order.
"I accept your order and thank you for your grace."
He did not kneel because he had this privilege. There was no point in kneeling at this time, so he had to use this privilege.
“Hahaha…” He smiled heartily at Tianque.
Then he said in a loud voice: "What are you waiting for? Come and meet the new marquis of Jiuzhou."
Upon hearing this, all the ministers came back to their senses from their shock.
"I have met Lord Shujian."
Looking at the three people except Feng He, Chao Xiao, and Chao Tianque who was sitting on the dragon throne.
The rest of the people knelt down and bowed to him.
Ye Tingmu raised his eyebrows.
Suddenly I felt my body tremble.
This guy is awesome.
At this moment, his expression changed in an instant, and he felt that this official was not so annoying after all.
It’s mainly about face.
He coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and bowed to everyone in return.
"Thank you very much."
The dust has settled.
The Book and Sword Immortal entered Jiuzhou and became the Book and Sword Marquis in one day.
If this news spreads soon.
It will definitely cause a big stir in Zhuolu City.
Being a 21-year-old Tianhou, what an honor it is.
After being conferred the title of marquis, Ye Tingmu held the imperial edict in his hand.
Then he stood aside and took the first place.
What followed was a long morning session.
This process was painful for Feng He and Ye Tingmu.
It lasted for two hours.
Just ended.
With a wave of his sleeves, Chaotianque announced the adjournment of the court.
He also breathed a sigh of relief, but there was no smile on his face.
Some are just sad faces.
When I think about it, early morning meetings like this happen all the time.
Even though he was granted the title of marquis, he could not be happy.
He looked at the dome, feeling helpless and sad.
"Oh my God, what did I do wrong? I've traveled through time, and you still want me to go to work, ah"
