Changsun Wuji waved his sleeves and said: "Your Majesty, Du He has no respect for his elders. He dares to sleep in the imperial study. He is so arrogant. For such behavior, making him a man of Huyi County is already a great gift."
Li Er made a silent gesture: "Auxiliary engine, please speak softly and let him sleep."
So, in the entire imperial study, His Majesty Li Er and other important civil and military ministers all stared at each other, waiting for Du He to sleep.
The wait lasted more than half an hour.
His Majesty Li Er was sitting in a comfortable chair. Of course he didn't feel it, but it was a pain for all the bosses. They stood one by one with stars in their eyes, numb all over, and no idea.
"Ouch..."
Du He stretched out, rubbed his eyes, and suddenly looked confused: "Why...are you all looking at me? Father, my lords, are you done with the discussion? Then I'll go home and sleep, you two.
The princess is still waiting for me."
Everyone: "..."
"Ahem..."
Li Er couldn't help but cough: "Du He, have you slept well?"
The upright Du He replied: "Father, I haven't done it yet. I'm too tired. You don't know. It's terrible to hand in homework."
Hand in homework?
Everyone looked confused.
Li Er said with some embarrassment: "Du He, I also know that you are tired, but now there is something that I have to inform you in advance."
"Which Gouri is trying to harm me? Stand up!" Du He suddenly stood up with a fierce look on his face, like a tiger that had woken up and was looking for someone to fight for.
Everyone was so frightened that they took two steps back.
Changsun Wuji was not afraid and said: "It's me, Du He..."
Changsun Wuji repeated the suggestion to Du He.
After saying that, he took three steps back.
I was afraid that Du He would get angry and hit someone.
After hearing this, Du He clenched his fists and asked: "Lord Changsun, you mean that by making such great contributions, I can only break one of the original decrees issued by the Supreme Emperor, that is, I cannot be knighted.
, naming me a male from Huyi County is already a great gift from the imperial court?"
"Yes... Du He, don't get excited. Put your fist down first. This is the Tai Chi Hall, not a place for you to act wild." Changsun Wuji's heart was beating wildly.
Du He chuckled: "Master Zhangsun, don't be nervous, I just rubbed my hands because they were numb... I agreed."
"Don't scare me. Remember when I was fighting on the battlefield...what, you agreed?" Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment.
Many big guys were also dumbfounded.
I thought that a war of words and even bloodshed would be inevitable.
Who knew that Du He would agree so readily.
Not to mention others, even Li Ke found it incredible.
He ran up to Du He and said, "Teacher, are you worried that there are too many of them and they can't beat them? Don't worry, even in the imperial study room, even my father and the emperor are no match.
You can scold them later, but if anyone dares to act impatiently, I will beat him to death."
Li Ke had tried his best to speak very quietly.
But the imperial study room was so big, his words could be heard clearly in everyone's ears.
Everyone's faces turned green.
Du He patted Li Ke on the shoulder: "Your Highness, we are civilized people, how can we do that kind of thing that harms others and ourselves?"
He turned around and said to everyone: "My lords, don't be afraid, you won't get beaten."
Everyone:"……"
Li Er couldn't stand it anymore and asked: "Du He, have you thought about it? If you agree, you can only get the title of male in Huyi County, and you can eat 300 households in the city, starting from the fifth rank."
Du He nodded: "Father, I have no objections, but there is a condition and a question."
"you say!"
Everyone listened attentively.
Du He said: "One condition is that for this reward, all the merits of the minister must be recorded clearly and accurately. One question is whether from now on, the minister can obtain the title for his meritorious service.
Are you no longer subject to the restrictions imposed by the Supreme Emperor’s decree on not being granted a title?”
Before Li Er could speak, Changsun Wuji said happily: "That's natural, Du He. We will clearly record your contribution today. Then, if you make contributions, you can naturally get rewards according to the practice of the Tang Dynasty.
Knighthood."
Li Er also nodded: "The auxiliary machine is right."
Du He smiled and said: "Then let's get started."
"Go to the credit book!" Li Er said.
Ximen Qing immediately carried a plate with a booklet, a pen, and a blue inkstone filled with ink.
Changsun Wuji volunteered: "Du He, I'm here to record your merits."
"Thank you, Mr. Changsun."
Next, everyone dictated it, and Changsun Wuji recorded it.
After a long while, Changsun Wuji held the merit book in his hand and read loudly: "Du He led a powerful army to Youzhou, raided the Lu family's lair, and took advantage of the chaos to kill Lu Huaguang! Capture Shu King Lu Huayuan alive! Form a rebel army! Capture Fanyang City skillfully.
! Captured Lu Mingzhou three times and defeated Lu Mingzhou three times! Gathered Lu’s 120,000-strong army! Flooded Lu’s army! Recovered thirty-six counties in one state, a total of nine major achievements. Du He, do you have any objections?"
Nine great contributions!
I don’t know how many people are jealous.
Among them, if you show any merit, you can be knighted.
But Du He, after collecting nine major contributions, could only be named a county boy.
Du He... If you want to blame, it's because you were too arrogant and offended too many people.
Du He chuckled: "Master Changsun, your record is quite clear. I have no objection."
Changsun Wuji wrote something on the back of the merit book, and then said: "Your Majesty, Du He has made nine major contributions. I suggest that your Majesty canonize Du He as a male of Huyi County. I have informed the world."
Hearing this, Li Er asked again: "Du He, have you really thought about it?"
Du He said nonchalantly: "Father, I think clearly, no problem."
Li Er then said: "Then let's make a decree. Du He has made nine great contributions and will be conferred as a male of Huyi County. He will live in the town of 300 households and be ranked from the fifth grade."
Wang Gui took the initiative and said: "Your Majesty, if the matter is urgent, let the veteran minister write the letter."
Wang Gui's literary talent is still very impressive.
I saw him swiping his pen and ink, and in a short time, an edict was completed. It read with so much literary talent that it was extremely enviable.
In this case, the edict process was simplified.
Changsun Wuji couldn't wait to take the imperial edict and said to Du He: "Du He, accept the edict."
Du He looked respectful: "My lord, accept the order!"
Changsun Wuji: "Bala Balaba... Du He, I hope you will not let down the emperor's favor and serve the imperial court in the future."
Du He accepted the order.
This matter was over, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
For nine major meritorious services, he was awarded the title of county male.
Du He had no objection.
The ministers were also very satisfied.
Everyone is about to disperse.
"Wait a minute!"
Du He suddenly shouted.
Um?
Everyone was stunned.
Changsun Wuji asked dissatisfiedly: "Du He, what do you want to do? Do you want to regret it? Your nine major achievements have been clearly recorded. With your current achievements and your status, you can only be granted the title
Mr. Huyi County, the decree has been fulfilled, are you dissatisfied?"
