Hearing Ye Qianling's words, the venue suddenly became quiet.
Because they were just as confused as she said.
Although the words of the imperial edict can be obeyed by everyone, they cannot be convinced by everyone.
To be convincing, you need to provide evidence to prove it.
If you want others to believe from the bottom of their hearts the identity of Wang Chen, a king with a different surname, you have to provide evidence that convinces them.
"This is a border battle report. After today, Wang Chen's identity as a king with a different surname will be announced to the world. At the same time, this battle report will also be posted in every county and city in Dajiang Kingdom."
With that said, Ye Qianling turned over his hand and took out a battle report and threw it to Nie Yun.
Nie Yun's eyes were red as he scanned quickly, and his hands holding the battle report became harder and harder.
In the end, he collapsed to the ground like a deflated rubber ball.
Nie Yuan took a look at the battle report, his face was full of disbelief, and his body was shaking violently.
Others also came forward one after another, and their expressions changed suddenly when they saw the contents of the battle report.
Eventually, the contents of the battle report were made public.
In the border battle that day, Wang Chen single-handedly turned Dajiang Country from defeat into victory.
That battle saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of border people, and also greatly delayed the time for Dalian State to enter Dajiang State.
In that battle, Dalian State suffered heavy losses, and it was no longer possible to launch a large-scale attack on Dajiang State.
Wang Chen's action brought great relief to Dajiang Country.
It can be said that if it hadn't been for Wang Chen in that battle, the cities on the border would have been annexed by the Dalian Kingdom.
Even after Dalian State breaks through the border, it will drive straight into the hinterland of Dajiang State.
At that time, Dajiang Country was not far from being destroyed.
For such meritorious service, it is not an exaggeration to be named a king with a different surname.
At this time, everyone looked at Wang Chen with eyes filled with admiration and reverence.
"A great hero of the country like Wang Chen was slandered as an evil cultivator. The Nie family and his son are really nothing."
"Even so, their hearts are too vicious."
"There are also those powerful people. Now that Dajiang Country is in crisis, they only think about how to strengthen themselves and even seize control of the Wu Mansion."
"People like this are the cancer of Dajiang Country. It's almost as if they are evil cultivators."
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and some of the disciples who saw the situation clearly pointed out Nie Yuan's wolfish ambitions.
Faced with the condemnation of many disciples, Nie Yuan and others' faces turned black and blue.
I originally thought that I could turn Wang Chen into an evil cultivator and then kill him on the spot, so that there would be no trouble.
But what I didn't expect was that such a big mistake would occur.
Not only did this kid have nothing to do, he also rose to the top and became the king of a different surname in Dajiang Kingdom.
If they still want to deal with Wang Chen, their chances are extremely slim.
After all, if you attack a king with a different surname, you will be labeled as a rebel.
When the time comes, even if they hook up, the big shots in the capital won't be of much use.
At this time, Ye Qianling waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then continued:
"In view of the fact that Wang Chen smashed the conspiracy between the Silver Sword Sect and the people of Dalian a few days ago, our national master, on behalf of Dragon Protection Pavilion, specially conferred Wang Chen as a national scholar of Dajiang Kingdom!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the venue.
Everyone in the field looked at Wang Chen dumbfounded.
Even Xiao An and the senior officials of Wu Mansion had expressions of disbelief, and their eyes almost popped out of their heads.
National scholar!
That is the highest title in Dajiang Kingdom!
Since the establishment of Dajiang Kingdom, only one national scholar has been conferred.
And that one was canonized as a national scholar because he conquered the country together with the founding leader of Dajiang Kingdom.
Now, Wang Chen has also been canonized as a national scholar!
Although it was shocking, no one was unconvinced.
Because, whether it is what is written in the battle report or the Silver Sword Sect's collaboration with the enemy in the past few days, any one of them can cause huge disasters and blows to Dajiang Kingdom.
But these two incidents were strangled in the cradle because of Wang Chen, avoiding the possibility of disaster happening in Dajiang Kingdom.
His contribution is really great!
Upon hearing Ye Qianling's canonization again, Nie Yuan couldn't stand anymore and collapsed directly next to Nie Yun.
As for those who relied on him, they were already in despair.
One word from the national scholar, and they will all die!
"Prince Wang Chen, please accept the decree." Ye Qianling looked at Wang Chen with eyebrows, stretched out his slender jade hand, and handed the imperial decree in his hand to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen's head was buzzing. Obviously, what happened in front of him also exceeded his expectations.
Just now, he was still worried about the crisis at hand.
Now, he has become a king with a different surname and a scholar of Dajiang Kingdom.
Although he felt a little stunned, Wang Chen still took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to receive the imperial edict, and bowed to Ye Qianling.
"Thank you, Imperial Master."
Ye Qianling smiled. Although she was covered by a veil, her curved eyes were still touching.
"No need to be polite. You are a national scholar and I am a national master. From this point of view, we are of equal status."
Although Ye Qianling said so, Wang Chen still saluted seriously.
After all, if Ye Qianling hadn't appeared in time, the crisis he faced would not have been easy to solve.
"Qingxue has met the national scholar."
At this moment, Luo Qingxue gave Wang Chen a slight bow.
Although she is a princess, she still has to salute when she sees a national scholar.
"See the National Scholars!"
Seeing this, Xiao An looked serious and immediately knelt down on one knee to salute Wang Chen.
Behind him, a group of senior military officials also did the same.
For a moment, all the disciples in the field shouted "See the national scholar" and knelt down on one knee to salute Wang Chen.
The actions of these people caught Wang Chen off guard.
After taking a deep breath, he stretched out his hand and said, "Your Royal Highness, Palace Master Xiao and all of you, there is no need to be polite."
To be honest, at this moment, he was still not used to the status of a national scholar.
"Master Wang, the king knows that you are a disciple of the Martial Palace, so he asked me to bring you a message, saying that your reward will not be short, and he will make up for it after you enter the headquarters."
Ye Qianling said.
Wang Chen nodded, "Thank you, Imperial Master. It must have been very hard for the Imperial Master to get here all the way from the capital. Please allow me to entertain you later."
Ye Qianling shook his head, "It's not necessary now. I still have to distribute this battle report to various counties and cities, and then return to the country to recover."
"As for hospitality, it won't be too late to entertain me when you go to the capital."
Wang Chen smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry for bothering the Imperial Master. When I arrive in the capital one day, I must treat the Imperial Master well."
"Wang Guoshi, what should we do with these people?" Xiao An asked, pointing at Nie Yuan and others.
When Wang Chen looked around, those people suddenly trembled, their faces full of fear.
"If there is a useful person, Palace Master Xiao will control him and use him for Wu Palace."
Xiao An nodded. These people are basically the leaders of various forces. Controlling them is equivalent to controlling the forces they belong to.
As long as these forces are controlled, Xiajiang County will be stabilized again, and all rights will return to his hands as the county governor.
The next moment, Xiao An looked at Nie Yuan and his son, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
