"Female official?"
Zhou An was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, he smiled like a native of his country, and said enthusiastically,
"It turns out that I have been granted an official title for my lord, so please come in."
As he spoke, Zhou An led the way and took Eunuch Zeng and others into Prince Pingxi's Mansion.
On the road, a half-broken corpse blocked the road. Zhou An was worried that he would trip Eunuch Zeng, so he kicked the corpse out with a considerate kick, and the intestines and blood were scattered all over the floor.
Seeing this scene, Eunuch Zeng couldn't bear it any longer and started to vomit while holding on to the wall.
Not only Eunuch Zeng couldn't bear it, but also the few followers and the people in the distance couldn't bear it, and they all started vomiting.
The scene was very spectacular for a while.
Seeing this, Zhou An grinned helplessly and said,
"What a bunch of weaklings. Why do we expect you to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy? Bah! All of them vomited into soft-footed shrimps!"
They entered Prince Pingxi's palace to announce the decree, and when the people saw Zhou An leaving, they all came to their senses.
"It's so cruel, so cruel. The evil star is finally gone. I will definitely have nightmares tonight."
"This place is so fierce that I'm afraid the ghosts of the dead will still be around. I won't dare to pass by here in the future."
"You can pull me down. You dare to watch someone kill you. Are you still afraid of ghosts?"
"You have to be careful. I saw the ghost of a dead man floating out just now and landed on your back."
"It's too fierce, it's too powerful. Who is this person? He killed dozens of people by himself and defeated more than a hundred people!"
"You don't even know who this person is? This person is Zhou An, our most powerful general in Gale. Several years ago, Wen Ouyang and Wu Zhou An had the reputation of being the best in both Gale and Gale. Zhou An's martial arts are ranked number one in the world. One, you don’t know?”
"I don't know, who are these two people?"
"Huh? Is the one who just came over a eunuch? An official in the palace."
"It seems like, what did he shout just now? Did he say that he wanted to make Master Nie a marquis?"
"He is a Marquis, and Lord Nie will be the Marquis from now on."
"That's not bad. I think Master Nie is one of the few good officials in Dafeng. He fights barbarians and evildoers, and eliminates harm for the people. He's awesome."
"But he borrowed troops and refused to return them."
"Tsk, it's just a flaw. You just saw the borrowed soldiers and refused to return them. Didn't you see why those soldiers were willing to follow him wholeheartedly? If those soldiers really want to leave, can he stop them?"
"That's right, if you ask me, there are still many discerning people. King Anton is assassinating and blocking the door and yelling, but he still refuses to admit it. His conduct is poor. Why do those soldiers still follow him? They must have chosen to follow him. The good man Mr. Nie."
"That is, if you ask me, Mr. Nie should just stay in Beijing and become the prime minister, and take care of those bad guys who bully others."
…
After Zhou An took Eunuch Zeng and others into Prince Pingxi's Mansion, they went straight to Dongyuan.
At the door of Dongyuan, stood Zhou Long, Zhou Hu and the guards.
"Second brother, you went to kill someone, why did you bring Eunuch Zeng back?"
Zhou Long and Zhou Hu had met Eunuch Zeng.
When Eunuch Zeng saw Zhou Long and Zhou Hu, he felt as if he were seeing a relative. He burst into tears with excitement and said,
"Two guard generals, are Master Nie inside?"
As long as he is not allowed to face the vicious Zhou An, he will be happy.
"Yes, yes."
Zhou Long turned around and shouted,
"Lord, someone is looking for you!"
"Who!"
Nie Chen walked out, followed by Ouyang Ming and others.
After seeing Eunuch Zeng, he immediately grinned and said,
"Hey, Eunuch Zeng, long time no see, come in and do it."
"No, no, Master Nie, our family is here to declare your Majesty's decree this time."
Eunuch Zeng held the imperial edict in his hands, and when he was about to open it, he suddenly couldn't help but feel his stomach churn, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
He quickly walked over, thrust the imperial edict into Nie Chen's hand, and said,
"Master Nie, see for yourself, our family really can't be declared like this."
After saying this, Eunuch Zeng ran out quickly with his entourage and vomited loudly.
Hearing this movement, Nie Chen turned around curiously and said,
"What's going on?"
Zhou An grinned and said,
"A soft-footed shrimp turns into a bear when it sees someone killing someone."
"Hahaha, just right. It saves you the trouble of proclaiming the decree. Kneeling here and there is also troublesome."
"Let's go back to the house."
Nie Chen led everyone back to the house, heated a charcoal pot, sat down on the soft couch, leaned into Weng Qiuchan's arms, lazily opened the imperial edict, and then smiled and said,
"Yo ho."
"Lord, what is written in the imperial edict?"
Ouyang Ming asked.
Nie Chen said,
"It's a lot of mess. To put it simply, the emperor said that I have meritorious service in fighting the barbarians and in protecting the country and the people. He made me a marquis. It's called...Zhengbeihou."
Ouyang Ming smiled and said,
"Okay, I finally have a title, and I'm still a marquis. My lord has taken a big step forward in his journey to becoming a king. It's worth celebrating."
"Now it's good. The four kings plus me, we have gathered together from east to west, from north to south."
Nie Chen casually threw the imperial edict onto the soft couch. Weng Qiuchan quickly picked it up and looked at it with two big eyes shining.
Ouyang Ming shook his head and said,
“The point is not that the four major military trumpets of Zhen, An, Ping and Zheng are gathered together.
In the past, when there was no military king, there were four bugles. The four bugles also represented the highest honor as an army commander.
The four major titles of Zhennan, Andong, Pingxi and Zhengbei also represent the four major honors.
The lord is now also a pillar of the country. Whether in the court or among the people, his reputation and status have been greatly improved. This is much more powerful than a mighty general.
Until now, the titles of general, lieutenant general, etc. for the generals under their command are considered legitimate. "
Nie Chen suddenly smiled and said,
"Since the Four Military Bugles are the highest honor, what happened to King Jingshan? Why isn't he called King Zhengshan?"
"Jing means peace and tranquility, and it also comes from the meaning of national calamity. A hundred years ago, a vassal town rebelled and approached the capital. The ancestor of King Jingshan sent his troops to King Qin and defeated the vassal town force.
Being named the King of Jingshan by the late emperor at that time was to commend him for his merits in pacifying the country and protecting the saints. The mountain was the Qinshan Mountains that blocked the connection between our country and Sichuan Kingdom.
King Jingshan's defense area is in Qinshan Mountain in the southwest, guarding against Sichuan Kingdom, so it is called King Jingshan. "
"Oh, that's it. I understand. By the way, the emperor has decreed the canonization. Do I have to go to the palace to thank him?"
Nie Chen suddenly asked.
Ouyang Ming said lightly,
"It's okay to go or not to go. If you go, people will say you are loyal to the emperor. If you don't go, they will say you are domineering."
"Hey, look what you said, you still have to go, reputation is the most important at this time.
What's more, the title of Marquis can only be issued by issuing a decree, but shouldn't he be given some clothes, ceremonial guards, etc.? This makes it clear that he wants me to enter the palace to thank him. "
