Chapter 2682 General Cheng’s Decision

At this point, the Ning family, the Shangguan family, and the Zongzheng family have all taken on this offending errand, but as long as the errand is completed, it can bring great credit to the three families and allow them to gain a foothold in the new dynasty.

However, as good as they thought, they had long since fallen into a trap that was unpalatable to both parties.

Wei Qi said happily: "In that case, it's all down to the three beauties."

He also said hypocritically: "Although I am working for the country, my methods must be gentle and not too hurtful."

These words were meant to appease the officials of the wealthy family, but who could be happy when their family property was about to be confiscated?

And they finally understood that whether it was Emperor Jingwu, Emperor Jingyuan, or the David Dynasty, when they had no money, they all loved to kill wealthy families to get money!

Wei Qi didn't care what they thought, he just said: "Old Shangguan Ge, continue to issue decrees."

"Yes." Mr. Shangguan Ge issued the second edict of conferring titles to Wei Xiao: "...Wei Xiao has made great achievements in establishing his career, and is specially given the position of a super first-class prince. He is the Prince of Wei of the David Dynasty and is hereditary. , future generations will enjoy the honor of kings forever!"

Generally, the throne lasts for five generations. After five generations, the descendants are just ordinary clans. But as long as the dynasty does not fall, the prince will always be on the throne. Since the Qin Dynasty had the prince's position, it has been nearly two thousand years, and there has been no such thing in history. Eight princes.

Therefore, the position of Prince Wei Xiao is very valuable.

But the Wei family was conquered by Wei Xiao, and Wei Xiao didn't care about the prince's position. He was only temporarily a prince for a few years, and in a few years, he would be the prince.

If Wei Qi didn't give it, David would be stable by then, and if he raised an army again, there wouldn't be any big trouble.

"I accept the decree and thank you for your kindness!" Wei Xiao accepted the decree of canonization and kowtowed three times to Wei Qi.

Wei Qi was very happy and very good at pretending. He quickly walked down from the dragon chair, helped Wei Xiao up personally and said, "Brother Xiao, you are my nephew. There is no need to call yourself Wei Chen."

Wei Xiao: "There is a difference between king and minister. In the Jinluan Palace, the nephew should call himself a minor minister."

Wei Qi patted him on the shoulder and said happily: "Brother Xiao, you have grown up and become sensible. Dad and eldest brother know that you can also smile."

It was as if Wei Xiao wanted Old Duke Wei and his son to die in peace.

Wei Qi said a few more words to Wei Xiao, and after showing his care for his nephew, he sat back on the dragon throne and continued to let Mr. Shangguange announce the decree and canonize the heroes.

Mr. Wang is Wei Qi's uncle, and he was granted the title of Yong'enhou for three generations.

Master Zuo, as one of the few available civil servants on the Wei Jiajun side, received the title of Uncle Wen, which lasted for three generations.

Zhou Huang is a capable general and was granted the title of Marquis of Wu'an. He is hereditary and will not be replaced!

General Yuan obtained the position of earl, which lasted for five generations.

General Liu from the Northeast got a marquis, General Liu got a count, and the other ministers and generals of the Wei family army were also awarded more than a dozen titles, all of which were civil and military, because Wei Qi needed soldiers.

General Cheng was Wei Qi's key figure to win over, and he received the title of Marquis of Zhongyong, which was also hereditary!

Not only that, Wei Qi also granted a marriage to General Cheng's daughter to Wang Yanxing: "Yanxing is my nephew, and Marquis Cheng and I hit it off again. After having an in-depth talk with Marquis Cheng some time ago, we decided to marry the two juniors. The marriage has been decided."

What, it's not a sudden marriage, but it was negotiated some time ago?

The old ministers of the Chu Dynasty were horrified... Cheng Chong had actually been won over by Wei Qi. This Wei Qi really had some tricks!

Wei Xiao was also shocked, because he didn't know about the marriage between Cheng Chong's daughter and Wang Yanxing, so he just thought that his uncle was still pressing his hot face against Cheng Chong's cold ass.

And here comes the even more terrifying thing...

Wei Qi said: "In the previous dynasty, the Yuan family was seriously harmed by the guilty emperor, and the Yuan family had an old relationship with the Wei family. Now it is a new dynasty. I can no longer let the Yuan family continue to be wronged. Today, I will confer a count on the Yuan family." This position is for Uncle David Tai, so that the Yuan family can be in peace and prosperity."

The title was given to him, and he really forced the Yuan family to come out and act as a sign of benevolence and righteousness for him.

Talking about Lu Bailai again: "Although the man from Qianshan County was granted the title by Emperor Huai of Chu in the previous dynasty, what he did was to redress the grievances of the people. I overthrew the guilty emperor just so that the people of the world can live a good life, so I will not I will punish Lu Bai, and I will also make him a man of Yujiang County, so that he can continue to patrol the world on my behalf and plead for the people!"

"Your Majesty is truly a wise king sent by God, and the people of the world are blessed!" Mr. Zongzheng was the first to kneel down and praise Wei Qi.

Soon, everyone in the Jinluan Palace knelt down, and even Zhong Huan felt that Wei Qi's move of letting Lu Bai continue to plead for the people was a wonderful use.

And Zhong Huan finally understood why Wei Qi could not achieve success in literature or military, but he could still be supported by some people... This guy is really good at winning people's hearts.

Wei Qi said: "I am the Lord of the world, and I should work for the welfare of all people in the world. Dear friends, please get up quickly."

Civil and military officials: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After they got up, Wei Qi took out another imperial edict and handed it to Cheng Chong: "Marquis Cheng, the brothers of the Wu family are very capable people. I don't want them to be buried like this. I will now grant Wu Changzhen the title of Loyal and Righteous Uncle and ask him to Come out of the mountain, join Fuhu Army again, train troops for David, and ask Marquis Cheng to help persuade him."

At this, the ministers were shocked again and knelt down again, shouting: "Your Majesty is worthy of being the True Dragon Emperor. He has a heart that embraces all rivers. He does not remember past grudges and places great emphasis on capable people. I thank you for this on behalf of the world!"

Cheng Chong accepted the imperial edict and promised: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely convince the Wu brothers."

Wei Qi said gratefully: "Thank you very much."

However, Wei Qi didn't care at all whether the Wu brothers agreed or not. If he agreed, he would just be a military training instructor. If he didn't, it would be fine. Anyway, his reputation as a virtuous man had already spread out, and the officials also looked at him with admiration.

Wei Qi earned himself a good reputation by conferring a title on former courtiers and generals, and attracted a group of loyal generals to strengthen his army, but Qin Gui wanted to cry... Aqi, you are so generous, why don't you give me a title? A title?

Wei Qi will not forget him. After all, Qin Gui is one of his chess pieces that shows benevolence and righteousness, and Qin Gui can also check and balance Qin Sanlang, so this chess piece has to be picked up and used.

Wei Qi came over, pulled Qin Gui to the middle of the Jinluan Palace, and said to the officials: "This is the uncle of Duke Qin. Although he has no great ability, he is a brother who has shared life and death with me, so I want to make an exception for him." , make him the Marquis of Chang'an, protect him from long-term prosperity and prosperity, and ask all the ministers and generals to respond accordingly."

The majestic emperor lowered his dignity to seek a title for a loser, just because the loser escaped with him. Such emphasis on friendship made the ministers and generals even more impressed by him.

Most of the ministers and generals said: "Your Majesty values ​​​​love and righteousness, and does not treat former brothers lightly. Naturally, I will not hesitate!"

Wei Qi was very happy and hurriedly said to Qin Gui: "Qin Er, why don't you thank all the adults quickly?"

Qin Gui cried and bowed to the ministers: "Thank you all, sir."

He knelt down to Wei Qi and said, "Your Majesty is so kind. I am willing to work as a cow or a horse for Your Majesty to repay Your Majesty, woo woo woo~"

Hey, this is the Marquis, can you repay me by just acting like a cow and a horse?

Wei Qi cursed in his heart, but comforted Qin Gui on his face. Finally, he pulled Qin Gui to Qin Sanlang and said, "Brother Mu, when we were in Longshan Mansion, your second uncle and second aunt had an affair. He has already acknowledged some of his wrongdoings, and I have punished him and the Ji family. Please don't argue with him, and at least pay attention to his second uncle."
