For example, Mo Jiuye now has a golden word '王' on the breastplate of his armor.
This is the biggest symbol of his current status as King of Zhenxi.
There are several other brothers from the Mo family, and their heart mirrors have the word "general" written in gold on them.
The word "general" is also divided into many levels. The most senior generals are in golden font, and most of them have the rank of general.
When the magistrate and the county magistrates and officials who came with them saw these people wearing armor, they quickly lifted their robes and knelt down to kowtow. At the same time, they did not forget to observe the symbols on the armor of several people out of the corner of their eyes.
After Mo Jiuye's identity as King of Zhenxi was confirmed, everyone led by the prefect shouted in unison: "See King of Zhenxi is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
Mo Jiuye never cared about these false etiquettes, but because of their acquaintance with Jingxianlou and his handling of the corpses some time ago, he was very unhappy with this person.
Especially when he was chatting, he asked Meng Huaining whether it was successful to ask the prefect for help.
At that time, Meng Huaining told him that when the prefect heard that he asked the state government to allocate funds to purchase high-yield grain seeds, the prefect suddenly became dark-faced. He refused even vaguely, which was called a straightforward refusal.
Through the above things, Mo Jiuye can conclude that this prefect is not a good official.
The northwest has become his fiefdom, and the transfer of officials is also within his jurisdiction. Mo Jiuye will not use a prefect who does nothing.
Originally, he wanted to wait until the war was over to get things straightened out.
Unexpectedly, the magistrate actually came to my door today.
In this case, he was not stingy with this little time and arranged things first.
After making up her mind, Mo Jiuye just said lightly to let them get up, and then walked towards the direction behind her.
Meng Huaining was going to send his uncles and brothers on an expedition today, so naturally he would not go to the Yamen to take up a post. At the moment, he was standing there observing the expressions of the prefect and his party.
Mo Jiuye went over and took Meng Huaining to a place with fewer people.
"Huai Ning, I plan to let you be the prefect, what do you think?"
This incident surprised Meng Huaining.
"Brother Ninth, why did you arrange it like this?" In fact, he also knew the person of the magistrate in his heart. He knew that Brother Ninth would depose this person sooner or later after getting the fief, but he did not expect it to be so soon.
Moreover, he really has not thought about becoming a prefect. Mo Hanyue likes Xiling Village. When he is a county magistrate in Yuncheng, he can ride a horse back and forth every day. If it is the state capital, it is too far from Xilin Village.
In this way, he can't get along with his little wife day and night.
Mo Jiuye didn't know these concerns of Meng Huaining.
"This prefect must be a capable person. At present, it seems that you are the most suitable."
Of course it's appropriate. According to the historical records of Wife's Space, Meng Huaining is the number one person in Nanyu Fu Kingdom. Being the prefect does mean that he is overqualified and underused.
He didn't think about blocking Meng Huaining's future, but he just felt that since Nan Yu didn't tell him to come to Beijing at the moment, it would be good to help him for some time in the northwest.
Before Meng Huaining could speak, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves in the distance. Along with the sound of horse hooves, someone shouted: "The imperial edict has arrived..."
When everyone heard that the imperial edict had arrived, they all looked at each other. No one could figure out. An imperial edict had just come, and another one came so soon?
The person delivering the order this time looked like a guard. Judging from his muscular figure, he should be a martial arts master.
The person delivering the edict was riding on a horse and holding the edict high: "Meng Huaining, the magistrate of Yuncheng County, receives the edict."
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Meng Huaining again.
Meng Huaining was also confused, but he still knelt respectfully in front of the person who delivered the order.
The others also knelt down along with Meng Huaining.
Meng Huaining shouted: "Your Majesty, Meng Huaining, accepts the order."
The person delivering the edict did not hesitate at all, unfolding the edict in his hand and reading it respectfully.
"By God's decree, the emperor decreed that Meng Huaining, the magistrate of Yuncheng County, has both political integrity and talent..."
In short, Meng Huaining was praised in various ways, and the final point was that he was ordered to rush to the capital within a month to assist the emperor, and his position was still the first-class chief assistant.
The chief assistant is very important, it is an official position with more power than the prime minister. Since the founding of Dashun, only the ancestor emperor has appointed a chief assistant.
Later, the chief assistant was dismissed because he was good at playing power and had inappropriate thoughts.
Since then, in order not to give their ministers such great rights, the successive emperors of Dashun have not granted any more titles to their chief ministers.
Without asking, you know that this handwriting must have been written by Nan Yu.
Emperor Shunwu was very suspicious, especially since the incident involving the Queen's party had just subsided, and he did not have the guts to bring in another powerful minister.
It can be seen how courageous Nan Yu is, and his ability to discern pearls is extraordinary.
He knew that Meng Huaining would become his right-hand man, so he recalled him to the capital with an imperial edict and directly sealed him from the position of chief assistant.
Of course, this period is also very different from history.
According to historical records, it was Meng Huaining who had been with Nanyu for many years and made great contributions to his victory. This was why he later became the chief assistant, and this should be many years later.
But all this has changed for the better. Meng Huaining took power earlier, which can help Nanyu develop faster.
Now, Meng Huaining no longer had to worry about whether he could return to Xiling Village after becoming the prefect, and went directly to the capital to take up his post.
Meng Huaining received the imperial edict in astonishment.
The person who conveyed the order did not say any nonsense, and warned: "The emperor is now at the time of employing people. His first imperial edict after ascending the throne is to recruit the chief assistant to the capital. I hope that the chief assistant will not let down the emperor's high hopes for you."
Can Meng Huaining say that he doesn't want to go?
cannot!
That would be disobeying the order, and besides, Nan Yu had indeed saved his life. Without Nan Yu's help, he might have lost his life now.
"Okay, I'll go to Beijing immediately after making preparations."
As soon as the person who delivered the order left, the Mohist brothers immediately surrounded Meng Huaining.
The eldest brother patted his shoulder: "Brother-in-law is a man of great talent. Staying in the small northwest will definitely bury your talent. Now that the emperor likes you, it is the glory of the Meng family and the glory of the Mo family."
These words expressed the sentiments of all the Mo family brothers. Although they all hoped that their sister and brother-in-law could stay with them in the northwest, no one wanted to delay their future.
Those who are capable should move to the right position.
Mo Chuhan walked out of the crowd. He had spent the most time in contact with Meng Huaining, and the two of them had the closest relationship.
He put his arms around Meng Huaining's shoulders and said righteously:
"You kid must remember that Hanyue has nine of our brothers supporting her. If we hear that she is not happy in the capital, be careful of us brothers going over and destroying your house."
