Chapter 119: The Founding Marquis of Haojue County
"Zhaowu Colonel Ji Song?"
Chen Shou looked around the hall, but when he didn't hear Ji Song's response, he shouted again, "My lord, Zhaowu Colonel Ji Song is here!"
Just when the ministers were confused, Ji Song woke up from a he had already cursed in his heart, saying that it would be better if he canonized it properly. He even divided it several times and almost made an own mistake.
When he heard his name being called out again, Ji Song didn't dare to hesitate, quickly came to the center and responded loudly.
"Zhaowu Colonel Ji Song, come forward to hear the seal!"
"promise!"
Chen Shou is also Alexander, and he knows how much His Majesty attaches great importance to Ji only did he personally decide on the reward, but he also put his reward last, which shows his preference for him.
The ministers were also very curious about Ji Song. The first time they heard his name was in the sixth year of was the time when Princess Pingyang was cured and she was canonized as a baron.
But the thing that remains fresh in their memory is when the Supreme Emperor ordered Ji Song to compose a poem on the Shangyuan sentence: "The crowd has searched for him thousands of times, but when I look back at dusk, that person is in the dimly lit place!" 'Let Ji Song enter their eyes completely.
From then on, Ji Song's reputation spread and became a legend in the literary a time, many young girls in Chang'an's boudoir fell in love with him.
But I didn't expect that Ji Song was not only the best in knowledge and literary talent, but also the best in martial to the information coming from the intelligence, this Ji Song not only commanded the army with determination, but also had outstanding martial arts skills.
He has made great contributions to two battles and two victories at a young age. Looking at His Majesty's arrangements this time, we know that Ji Songjian is in the Emperor's heart. As long as he does not make big mistakes, he will have a bright future and a great career is just around the corner.
Chen Shou slowly opened the imperial edict, glanced at Ji Song and read loudly: "In Haoyang County, there is Ji Song, a young and talented man. He has few extraordinary ambitions, is smart and benevolent. He uses medical skills to cure Princess Pingyang from danger, and contributes to increase the land. The method of fertilization is extremely effective in increasing the yield per mu."
"When the country was in crisis, he led more than a hundred righteous men to participate in the Turkic War. Returned to Yuchi's camp, led the cavalry into Chai Shao's army, and when the Turks invaded Gaoling County, Ji Song, as a captain of Zhaowu, annihilated [-] cavalry in one battle, and liberated Gaoling surrounded."
"In World War II, there was an occasional loyal traitor Ashina on the way. In order to win, he took the escaped general Xue Wanche into the enemy camp alone. He first discovered the enemy's flaws and sent a message back to the army.
Later, he killed the enemy general in the camp. In order to defeat the enemy's plan, he also set fire to the camp, causing the enemy's position to made great contributions to the annihilation of five thousand enemy troops. "
"It is unnatural to not reward someone for his merits! Even though he is young, he is a genius. Not giving him a big reward is not enough to show his merit!"
"Today, I canonize you as the Marquis of Haoju County since the founding of the country in the third rank, and you will be granted the title of [-] households. Considering that you are young, you will not be rewarded by the official position for the time being. I appreciate this!"
"Good Marquis?" Ji Song wondered, did he snatch Zhi's title in advance? In "The Biography of Chu Zhibai, Marquis of Haoju", the paper is called Chu Zhibai, with the courtesy name Shouxuan and the title of Marquis is a joking name for paper by literati. Thinking about it, it seems that the ancient literati had a bad taste in giving paper a title, which is a shame for them.
"The Marquis of Hao has not received the order to thank you!" Chen Shou said with a smile.
Only then did Ji Song wake up from his reverie of being a "good Marquis", and he quickly saluted and said: "I accept the decree to express my gratitude. I wish your Majesty ten thousand years, and the Tang Dynasty ten thousand years!"
No matter what, it can be regarded as a title. If you are a good Marquis, you should be a Marquis!He didn't care much about the title. Haoju County was well known as a place for worshiping heaven in ancient times. Later, Haojuhou was also used as a synonym for paper. Both the meaning and the place were good.
"Okay, okay! Although Hou Jisong is young, he is not inferior to others in terms of knowledge and martial arts. In the future, he will continue to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and make new contributions to the Tang Dynasty. I will wait and see!" Li Shimin looked very happy and stood He stood up and encouraged Ji Song. "I will live up to your Majesty's expectations!"
Except for those who knew Ji Song's details, everyone else took Ji Song's title as a matter of Fang Xuanling and others don't think so.
Some things were not mentioned at all in the canonization decree, such as papermaking, the Three-Character Classic, with the fact that he made so much money for the emperor every year, it was more than enough to make him a county official.
But since the emperor didn't say anything, it made sense, and they just pretended that they didn't know.
Ji Song was not depressed at all. He was satisfied to be canonized as Marquis of Kaiguo he was really made a duke, it would be his turn to has never been a duke under twenty years old. He doesn't want to be No. 1.
In fact, Li Shimin also knew that the reward was a bit light, but Ji Song was too young after all. He became a marquis of the Tang Dynasty before he was crowned. His household and fiefdoms were both average and upper-middle. If there were more, Ji Song might not be able to bear it. Come on, this can be regarded as love and care for Ji Song!
If the title is too high, how will Ji Song perform meritorious service in the future?Even if he has made meritorious service, how can he be rewarded?He had no intention of naming a king with a different surname, so a marquis was just right, not enough compared to the superior, but more than adequate to the inferior.
Coupled with the special order of awards he had made today, even a blind man knew that this was to protect and support Ji today's experience, no one will underestimate this newly promoted good prince!
Coupled with Third Sister's love and care for the boy, as long as he doesn't seek death, no one can do anything to him. The most important canonization ceremony of the Dachaohui has ended, and Ji Song is not interested in participating in what will happen the ceremony ended, and Ji Song also walked out with the crowd.
Everyone standing with Ji Song, whether they knew him or not, introduced themselves in front of Ji Song and brushed their faces in front of the youngest marquis in the country. They might have to deal with him in the future, so it was good to get to know him in advance.
Ji Song also responded with a smile. Don't pretend to be aloof at this , there might be rumors tomorrow that Hao Jiehou was a successful young man and was arrogant.
It was not until Chai Shao, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi and others arrived that these people said goodbye and left. At the same time, they were also surprised by Ji Song's strong connections.
"Congratulations, Brother Song!" Chai Shao congratulated Ji Song first.
Ji Song said quickly: "Uncle, please stop teasing me. My nephew will host a banquet at home in the future, and my uncle and aunt will definitely come. Then my nephew will cook a few special dishes himself, and I hope my uncle and aunt will appreciate it."
Then he turned to Cheng Yaojin and others and said, "Then Duke Su and Duke Wu will definitely come too!"
"Haha! Easy to say, easy to say! Now we are in a good mood!"
Just when everyone was confused, Chai Shao explained: "I'm not bragging. Song Ge'er's cooking is excellent. Pingyang usually has a bad appetite, but as long as Song Ge'er cooks it, she must finish it every time. Just give up!"
"Really?"
"Second brother Qin and I can testify to this. When we were treating Princess Pingyang in Haoji County, we ate it for a while. The taste was, tsk tsk!" Cheng Yaojin smacked his lips as he spoke, looking like he was having an endless aftertaste. This appearance made everyone even more curious, and they all decided on the spot that they would definitely go.
Now that I have been knighted, the pace is a bit slow, but it will speed up later.
