Ying Yuan personally took Cao Cao's wrist and got on the imperial carriage together.
As for Daji, she got on her own phoenix chariot.
The four kings rode on their war horses to accompany and protect the emperor.
The people in the city stood in two rows on both sides, lining the streets to welcome the victorious army.
For Cao Cao, this was the supreme favor.
For Ying Yuan, it was a new beginning for him to use the emperor to control the princes.
Inside the imperial carriage.
Ying Yuan said to Cao Cao, "If it were not for Cao Qing's efforts to save the day in this battle, I'm afraid that our Great Qin would have been destroyed long ago.
I have decided to allocate money from the inner treasury to reward the three armies. I want to thank you very much."
He said some of these words through gritted teeth.
He now has a love-hate relationship with Cao Cao.
Hate that he won this battle.
Loving him may lead to rebellious behavior in the future.
As for rewarding the troops...
Really, I just wanted to find a place to spend money.
Cao Cao didn't think much about it and quickly responded, "Without your majesty's trust, I would not have been able to achieve such a great victory."
"I have already read the list of meritorious officials you provided me. I will reward them generously and grant them high positions and salaries."
To be honest, Ying Yuan wished he could crown each of them as king.
Then eventually the Rebellion of the Eight Kings broke out.
But this kind of thing can't be rushed.
Outside the imperial carriage.
Inside a restaurant.
Top floor private room.
Hui'er opened the doors and windows, and she and Miyue saw Ying Yuan and his group.
In addition, there were the cheers of the people.
"Recently, this princess has heard rumors among the people that Ying Yuan is not a tyrant, but a wise ruler."
Since the imperial chariot that Ying Yuan was riding in at the moment had no roof, doors or windows, Mi Yue could see his face clearly.
Handsome, extraordinary temperament, and sharp eyes.
This was Miyue's first impression of him.
In fact, this all depends on the blessing of the true dragon energy and the Holy King Body.
"But why do people in our Chu State say that Ying Yuan is a tyrant?"
Hui'er asked in confusion.
Even if the two countries were in a hostile relationship, Ying Yuan should not be portrayed as a tyrant who did all kinds of evil.
Mi Yue whispered, "Whether he is a tyrant or not, I believe I will know soon."
Even now, even after seeing Ying Yuan's face, she still doesn't want to marry him.
Because this kind of marriage with political factors was not what she wanted.
There is no affection between her and Ying Yuan.
Just think about it, how can a woman achieve her wish if she becomes a tool for the marriage between two countries?
It's mostly just out of helplessness.
...
Since Cao Cao and his companions were exhausted from the long journey, there was no celebration banquet today.
At the grand court meeting tomorrow, Ying Yuan will offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, and confer titles on his ministers. There will be a celebration banquet later in the day.
At that time, all the celebrities in Xianyang City will participate.
Therefore, Cao Cao and his companions went to another post station in the city to rest first.
evening.
Ying Yuan was thinking about what official positions to reward those meritorious officials.
Because she was busy until late at night, Daji made a bowl of sweet soup by herself and sent it to Ying Yuan.
Suddenly, I saw a huge wooden board standing in the palace.
Written on it were the names of some meritorious officials and their official positions.
Daji was moved and suddenly noticed that the words "King of Wei" were written on Cao Cao's official title.
So he subconsciously asked, "Your Majesty wants to make Minister Cao a king?"
Hearing this, Ying Yuan nodded and said, "Indeed, Cao Cao's achievements are too great. Apart from being crowned a king, I feel that any other reward would be useless."
"In this way, our Great Qin will have five kings of different surnames." Daji said worriedly.
Having too many kings of different surnames is not a good thing.
Even if there will be no problems in Ying Yuan's generation.
But what about the next generation?
How should the next generation of emperor deal with so many kings of different surnames?
"I know what's going on."
Ying Yuan smiled and said.
After hearing this, Daji didn't know what to say.
......
The next day.
Great court meeting.
Ying Yuan and Daji went to court together.
First, they offered sacrifices to their ancestors at the Taimiao, and then they performed Fengshan rituals in the Taimiao to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.
Three full hours had passed since the whole process was completed.
All civil and military officials knelt respectfully outside the temple.
There are two main reasons for doing this.
First, Ying Yuan wanted to tell the previous emperors of the Qin Dynasty that through his efforts, the Qin Dynasty defeated the foreign enemies and ushered in a brief period of peace.
There is nothing wrong with publicizing your own achievements to your ancestors.
It was mainly arranged by the Ministry of Rites.
Second, they should thank heaven and earth for helping them repel foreign enemies.
It is worth mentioning here that.
The person in charge of the Fengshan ceremony was not an official from the Ministry of Rites, but Zhang Jue.
Afterwards, everyone came to the court hall one after another to accept Ying Yuan's imperial decree.
Cao Cao and other generals were now kneeling in the center of the hall.
Zhao Gao slowly opened the imperial edict and said in a loud voice: "The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, decrees:
In the past, when the enemy invaded, the country was in danger. Fortunately, with the assistance of my ministers, the world was at peace. I was very pleased and decided to reward the troops.
Commander Cao Cao, who has skillfully repelled the enemy and rendered meritorious service to the state, is now enthroned as King of Wei and bestowed with the Nine Gifts.
Vanguard Pan Feng, loyal and brave, has killed countless enemies and is now named Marquis of Changping County and appointed General Yunhui.
General Cao Ren, for his meritorious service in defending the city, is now appointed General Guide;
Zhao Kuangyin, the King of Song, was granted the hereditary title of king for his meritorious service in killing the enemy, and was given the Nine Gifts, gold and silver...
Prince of Liang Dong Zhuo...
The general will be banned...
