"How to award a reward??" Emperor Wuwei stood on the high platform and asked this sentence.
Yes, how to award a reward?
This sentence stunned all the ministers present.
In the past, the Ministry of Rites was responsible for formulating the reward etiquette system for people in the military. What level you are, what achievements you have achieved, and what the final reward is, whether it is a title, an official position, or other rewards. The Ministry of Rites all There are relevant systems and rules.
Previously, the rewards received by everyone who joined the army were verified by the Ministry of Rites. After approval, the corresponding rewards would be honored.
However, there was no reward that could be given to Lu Jiu in the ritual system.
Because according to Lu Jiu's level of military exploits, they were completely beyond the control of the Ministry of Rites, and there was nothing that could be rewarded to Fang Yi.
Fang Yi had such incredible military exploits that he commanded the central army and killed nearly 20,000 barbarians at the cost of more than 20,000 people.
He even caught him by surprise and almost killed the barbarian prince.
This is top-level military exploits.
"General Lu Jiu's military exploits can be said to be of great merit. No reward can be exaggerated for such contributions. However, His Majesty still has the final say on such rewards." The Minister of Rites carefully considered his words at this time. After all, in the whole world, whether it is the royal land or not, in the end, Emperor Wuwei has the final say. Whatever Emperor Wuwei says is whatever he says.
Emperor Wuwei was silent for a long time, and then he said: "General Lu Jiu has made outstanding achievements in this battle. He was made a baron before, and today he is made a count!"
The Minister of Rites frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
The title of Dali is divided into Dukes, Princes and Males.
The title given to Lu Jiu before was a baron, which was considered the lowest title, but it was enough to show the great grace of Emperor Da Li. The title was worth a lot of money and could not be conferred by any official position.
Some ministers will be granted a title only after their death, and it cannot be hereditary.
Living people, except for relatives of the emperor, are generally not given any titles.
Although Baron is the lowest type of title, it is enough to show the Dali Dynasty's recognition of Fang Yi's military exploits.
Generally speaking, titles are promoted sequentially. The person who was promoted before was Marquis, and then the first person to be promoted was Viscount. This time, Fang Yi will be directly given the title of Earl, which is equivalent to being directly promoted to Earl after being separated by one level. .
Logically speaking, this is inconsistent with etiquette, but considering that General Lu Jiu created the most powerful battle in history, such a reward is not a big problem, it is equivalent to giving Lu Jiu recognition.
"This time, Lu Jiu is promoted to the rank of general, reaching the third rank." Emperor Wuwei continued.
"As for the rewards for other houses, jewelry, gold and silver, they will all be handled by the Ministry of Rites. After the decree is drawn up, show it to me, and then you can go down and award the reward." Emperor Wuwei gave a general opinion, as for the specifics The management is still in charge of the Rites Department.
Generally speaking, prefixes are usually added to titles such as earls and generals.
For example, the current three generals Weiyuan, Huguo, and Northern Expedition were all awarded by the imperial court.
The title will generally be determined based on the place of residence, or if there are any other special considerations.
But these were not things that Emperor Wuwei had to consider. After all, the Ministry of Rites was there and he, the emperor, did not need to think so much.
After talking about the reward, the biggest thing in the morning was completely agreed upon, and Emperor Wuwei turned around and left.
…
Returning to his palace, Yun Wuji retreated, leaving only himself.
"Wuji, after this battle, the dragon energy in the world has gathered together again." The man in the belly said at this time.
"Yes, Master, I have sensed it. Only after sitting on the throne can I sense that there is a more powerful force in the dark. It turns out that this is the dragon's energy to protect the body and the power of national destiny." Yun Wuji said with a solemn expression at this time. Said: "But it is exactly this that makes me puzzled. I have ascended the throne and proclaimed myself emperor and inherited the throne. Logically speaking, all the fortunes of the world should be attributed to me. But why? I feel that in the imperial court, For my use, I have so little dragon luck to practice."
"Did Fang Yi really crash the fate of the country before he died??" Yun Wuji asked again at this time: "But why, I feel that the luck of the dragon that Fang Yi crashed was just a A small part, but the vast majority of dragon luck, where are they??"
"I was a little confused before..." The person in Yun Wuji's belly sighed slightly at this time, and then said: "But now I may have found some clues. With the help of Longyun practice, I have recovered some strength. "
"At the place of your father, the Supreme Emperor of Dali, and Emperor Taiping." The man in his belly said in an astonishing voice at this time.
"He blocked the dragon's luck and locked the dragon's luck in his body, but he pushed you to be the emperor and bear the cause and effect of the Great Li." The man in his belly sneered at this time and said: "It's a good trick."
"Your father must have swallowed up the good self." The man in his belly said again in a shocking tone.
"What??" Yun Wuji was extremely shocked at this time. Hearing this news, he couldn't quite understand it.
"Hahaha, with the help of dragon luck cultivation, I have figured out a lot of things, and with the blessing of dragon luck, I can automatically decipher some hidden powers." The person in the belly smiled and said: "True self, false self, good I, hate me.”
"The true self has completely fallen. He collected the national destiny of the Daqian Dynasty. If the national destiny of the world can be divided, the national destiny in the hands of the Daqian Imperial Master should account for 30%." The man in the belly continued to speak.
"The true self gave birth to the false self, which is the true self." The person in the belly continued: "After my death, the good self was born."
"It's just that I never died. I survived by relying on the golden cicada's method of escaping. Fortunately, you found me in the Sutra Pavilion, and I was able to survive until now." The man in the belly continued to speak, seeming to be trapped. In memories.
Yun Wuji also recalled how he met the master in front of him.
When he was a teenager, he was studying in the Sutra Pavilion and accidentally knocked his hand. His fingers were bloody. Then the next day, he discovered that a mysterious soul lived in his body.
That is the current master.
For many years, Yun Wuji has been using his body to nurture his master, allowing his master to regain consciousness and strength, and even almost reached the peak of the seventh grade.
But after reaching the peak of the seventh level, the master's power can no longer improve significantly.
Everything changed again until Yun Wuji ascended the throne and became the emperor of Dali.
After Yun Wuji ascended the throne, he actually had no dragon luck at all. However, as Yun Wuji took control of the world and began to work hard to govern, and after winning the hearts and minds of the people, dragon luck took shape.
With Long Yun, Yun Wuji realized the advantages of being an emperor, and finally understood why some emperors were just mortals, but no one could easily kill the emperor.
There is only one fundamental reason, the emperor has dragon luck protection! !
Yun Wuji practiced with the fake Chinese master, and naturally became proficient in gate spells. After the Dragon Luck was condensed in his body, he started practicing with the help of Dragon Luck, which allowed him to open the door to a new world in an instant.
It turns out that the use of dragon luck has such a powerful and magical effect in practicing Taoist methods.
Then, like Yun Wuji, the fake national master also began to use Long Yun to practice.
Not long ago, the fake national master finally broke through from the peak of seventh grade to eighth grade.
Eighth grade national master.
The fake Chinese master who returned to the eighth level finally unlocked all his dust-laden memories, as well as various magical powers that had been sealed that he had never been able to use before.
And the key is, after achieving the eighth level, he no longer needs to be isolated from those secret things.
An eighth-grade national master can naturally break through illusions and perceive many secrets.
"Wuji, I have broken through to the eighth level, and I no longer need to rely on your body to practice." The false self said at this time: "The true self gave birth to the false self, and the false self is the current me, and the false self gave birth to the good self, but I am dead and devoured by your father."
"The good self gave birth to the evil self, and the evil self is Dao Wuya. Dao Wuya has just entered the eighth level not long ago. He doesn't know many secrets." The fake national master smiled and said: "Find me a tool. Physically, I will rebuild my physical body and play chess with those two old guys again."
"Okay, Master." Yun Wuji agreed immediately, and then said: "Then what should we do next??"
"The destiny of the country is not static. I have robbed 30% of the destiny of the country, but there is still 70% in Dali. Your father has at least 40%. Fang Yi smashed 20% in court that day, and there is still 10% of the destiny of the country. Originally, Just scattered in the world." The fake national master continued: "In addition, the national destiny can be reunited by absorbing the people's hearts. Next, you continue to add fuel to the flames according to the current situation, unite the people's hearts, and absorb the national destiny."
"Okay." Yun Wuji smiled and said, "Congratulations, Master, for re-cultivation and reaching the top again."
"It's not the peak." The fake Chinese master smiled slightly and continued: "If my guess is correct, your other master, Song Zhiwen, is also because you don't have enough dragon luck to condense the so-called mastery. Dragon power cannot truly reach the ninth level."
"Master Song, is it because of this??" Yun Wuji suddenly understood at this time. No wonder Master Song was not very happy some time ago. It turned out to be because of this. No wonder he has been in retreat for a while.
"However, you have succeeded in consolidating the national destiny. Next, Song Zhiwen's strength may be significantly improved." The fake national master smiled slightly, and then sighed and said: "The mouth of the ninth grade is torn, Gu King, Barbarian King , Song Zhiwen, Zhao Wuji, Dao Wuya, your father, me, even Luo Shenhou, the sword master of Tianjian Pavilion, and Wang Tianyi of the demon clan, the age of great struggle has finally arrived."
