Han Rong was very confident in his judgment and was very proud of himself.
The mother-in-law and mother were also overjoyed.
Han Ning and Han Xiaodie immediately looked at their husbands with admiration, their eyes filled with stars.
Only Liu Bei felt a little embarrassed while chewing the mutton.
Because Han Rong's speculation was actually true, Liu Hong's original plan was obviously to give him a high position as a Jiuqing. As long as he nodded and agreed, it didn't matter whether it was Guang Luxun, Taiwen, or any other position. There is still someone in charge, and Liu Hong will ask him to step down and make way for someone more competent.
It's just that Liu Beizhi is not here.
To be a high-ranking official of Jiuqing, there will be many opportunities in the future, but the opportunity to serve as the state pastor of Yizhou to train the team's ability is only this once, there is no other branch, and it is very precious.
So Liu Bei said nothing more and just ate meat to make himself fuller.
After the meal, Liu Bei came to the child's room, looked at the two little babies sleeping soundly under the care of the wet nurse, caressed their faces, and then looked at Han Ning and Han Xiaodie, whose faces were filled with maternal glory, he couldn't help but He caressed both of their faces.
"Thank you for your hard work during this time."
"This is as it should be."
Han Ning held one of Liu Bei's hands: "Mr. Lang is away fighting for the country. As the head wife, this is all I can do."
Han Xiaodie also held Liu Bei's other hand.
"me too."
Liu Bei laughed and pinched their tender, watery skin.
"Do you think this is all you can do?"
Han Ning and Han Xiaodie blinked, looked at each other, and then at Liu Bei.
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't you understand? Let me tell you, it's not enough for our family to have only two children."
Liu Bei clapped his fingers and said: "Yun Chang and Yide are both fathers of two children, and now they plan to have more. Xiahou Yuanrang and Xiahou Miaocai are the fathers of three children and four children." , everyone has to work hard to survive, and compared with them, I feel that I still haven’t done enough.”
After Liu Bei finished speaking, Han Ning and Han Xiaodie understood what Liu Bei meant.
Two children are not enough.
Liu Bei wanted more.
So what else is there to say?
After several months of separation, both Liu Bei and the two of them missed each other unbearably.
This night was extremely long, but fortunately, the second and third days were both Liu Bei's holidays.
He didn't get up the whole morning of the next day, and Han Ning and Han Xiaodie didn't get up either. The three of them slept together until noon before getting up for lunch, and then slept again in the afternoon.
The third day was spent like this.
During the two-day holiday, no guests came to visit. Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding to leave their rest time to Liu Bei so that he could recharge his batteries.
Everyone seems to be waiting for him to get the reward before visiting him seriously, trying to please him, and see if they can get some benefits for themselves.
Liu Bei was very happy. No one came to disturb him. He was happy and at ease. He held his two children and walked around in his back garden, experiencing the joy and joy of becoming a father for the first time.
After the two-day holiday, the reward conference for this battle is finally going to be held.
The palace was very grand. All officers with a certain status who had made military exploits lined up to enter the palace to receive rewards from the emperor. All Luoyang court officials with a certain status also entered the palace to accompany them and receive rewards. The face of a soldier.
As the coach of this expedition, Zhang Wen was undoubtedly the first to receive the award.
No matter how much credit everyone has achieved, as the coach, he is entitled to a share of the profits, so in summary, Zhang Wen is the one who deserves the most titles.
Of course, Zhang Wen was a little disappointed that he didn't get the three-gong position he had been dreaming about day and night, which Liu Hong wanted to keep and sell for money.
However, he was granted the title of General Hussar. The salary of General Hussar was equal to that of the General. He had a gold seal and purple ribbon and the same position as the Third Duke. This barely satisfied his ideal of returning to the position of Third Duke.
Then there is nothing special about the land rewards given by the feudal princes. Zhang Wen became the second highest military position holder in the Han Dynasty after General He Jin.
It's a high status, but that's it.
Next are Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen. Although these two are not serious generals, they both have general titles, so they receive rewards in the second and third places.
Among them, Zhou Shen was awarded the title of former general due to his military exploits. He was promoted from a miscellaneous general to a formal general with eight formal establishments. His rank was only below the general, the hussar general, the chariot general and the Wei general. He belonged to the Han army. The fifth person in the world, with a very high status.
Zhou Shen was overjoyed about this.
Dong Zhuo was slightly second, and was named General Right, becoming the current sixth man in the Han military circles. He was also appointed Zuo Fengyi, stationed troops north of Gaoling, and guarded the tombs of previous emperors.
It seemed that Dong Zhuo was a little dissatisfied with this. He glanced at the proud Zhou Shen unhappily and accepted the reward from the court.
They were all granted titles, food and towns, and were rewarded with land, houses, and money. The amounts were large, and the court's actions were definitely not shabby.
Next is Liu Bei, the cavalry captain who ranked fourth in military rank during this expedition.
He is also the recipient of this much-anticipated award.
When Liu Bei's conferment ceremony progressed, those accompanying him in the court finally cheered up.
For example, Yuan Wei was very much looking forward to Liu Bei being granted the title of Jiu Qing. He did not want to be granted the title of Three Lords. However, if Liu Bei was granted the title of Jiu Qing, the influence of the ancient literature school in the Luoyang court would be even stronger.
Xun Shuang, the servant, also looked forward to Liu Bei's promotion. His ideas were similar to Yuan Wei's, and they both wanted to expand the power of the ancient literature school.
The old man Zheng Xuan looked at Liu Bei's expression of neither joy nor sorrow, and his mind was spinning a thousand times. He remembered Liu Bei's words at that time, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
Yang Biao, who came to attend the ceremony in place of the seriously ill Yang Ci, stared at Liu Bei fiercely. If eyes could kill, Liu Bei would be a pile of fleshy foam by now.
Cao Cao was also looking forward to it. He looked at Liu Bei with great energy, expecting Liu Bei to be promoted to the position of Jiuqing. The higher Liu Bei's position and the greater his power, the happier and more excited he was.
Of course, the most excited and nervous person was Liu Bei's father-in-law Han Rong. Han Rong, who participated in the ceremony as Yilang, was very much looking forward to Liu Bei making new breakthroughs in his position and taking the Han family to the top. Give it a shot.
Then, the eunuch Zhang Rang read out the emperor's reward to Liu Bei in front of everyone's attention.
First, Liu Bei was granted the title of General of the Left, below Zhou Shen and Dong Zhuo.
The leap from a cavalry captain to a formal general with a heavy title was indeed a very big leap for Liu Bei. This meant that at this moment, Liu Bei had become the officially recognized seventh person in the Han military.
This is not an exaggeration at all for Liu Bei's great military achievements in killing generals, seizing flags and turning the tide of the war in this battle.
So this award is easily recognized.
Next comes the title.
Zhang Rang announced that Liu Bei was originally the Marquis of Du Kangting. This time Liu Bei killed one of the thieves and captured another. He made a lot of gains and was famous. Therefore, he was promoted to the title of Marquis of Fanyang County and granted food to 2,000 households.
This is not difficult to understand. Liu Bei is a native of Zhuoxian County, but because Lu Zhi has been named Marquis of Zhuoxian County for his merits, and Lu Zhi is still Liu Bei's teacher, Liu Bei cannot compete with his teacher for the fiefdom in any case, so So he chose Fan Yang as Liu Bei's fief nearby.
Anyway, they are all in Zhuo County. Rounding it off, it is approximately equal to Guangzong Yaozu. We don’t care about the details, okay?
Okay, of course it’s good. If nothing else, he directly passed over the title of County Marquis and was granted the title of County Marquis, ascending to the highest level of the Han Dynasty’s title. If nothing unexpected happens after that, only the number of restaurants will change, and the title will generally be It won't change.
Well, not necessarily.
Because Liu Bei's surname is Liu and he is a member of the Han clan, who knows if he makes any earth-shattering achievements in the future, will there be any unexpected breakthroughs?
Hard to say.
Of course, the most important thing is not these, but the position.
Han Rong's heart was in his throat.
Yuan Wei's breathing was a little rapid.
Yang Biao stared at Liu Bei, still trying to punish him with his eyes.
Zheng Xuan was neither happy nor sad, his expression was calm.
Later, Zhang Rang read out the edict again.
The emperor ordered Liu Bei, the general of Zuo and the Marquis of Fanyang County, to be the shepherd of Liangzhou and uphold the integrity.
