Seeing this boy running away, Ji Song shook his head and put the matter aside for the time being. This boy was the only one who was still ignorant. Even if he didn't say anything, wouldn't others know?
Judging from the expression on the kitten, the person this boy likes must be an acquaintance. Considering the situation in the past few years, who else could it be besides the person at home?
But he is not going to take care of this matter. Everyone is ignorant sometimes. It is human nature for a young man to admire Ai!
Everyone has their own fate. As the saying goes, they turn into dragons when encountering storms. There is no corresponding ladder, and some bumps in life, that person's life has already deviated from what is recorded in the history books.
In that case, let it go!
"Ze'er doesn't like..."
"mother!"
Ji Song interrupted Mother Ji's words and said with a smile: "Let's just leave this matter alone. As long as it's just about etiquette, everything is up to them!"
"My disciple is not a light-hearted person. If we forcefully arrange it for her, I'm afraid she won't refuse based on her temperament, but she will definitely be left with a knot in her heart."
"This might not be a good thing for them!"
Pingyang was a little confused when he heard it, but when he heard about the disciple, he suddenly realized it!
"How can my great-nephew not be worthy of him? How dare he refuse to do so? Will he repay her if he rebels against her?"
Pingyang was not happy when he heard this. He had watched these children grow up, and sometimes he cared more about them than his own grandchildren. Now that he finally found someone he liked, he was still unwilling?
If Run'er hadn't already decided on the prince's daughter, and there was something wrong with other princes' daughters, the princess would have been married off long ago. How could she have waited until now?
I've seen that kid Wu Mei in Pingyang, but for some reason I can't always like him. Maybe it's because people of the same kind repulse each other!
When two extremely smart people are together, they always want to compete.
"Cheng Qian talked about this matter last time, and I was very unhappy that time. If it weren't for the sake of being your disciple, I would have to teach her a lesson! She is so arrogant at such a young age, If she doesn’t even give her the face of the royal family, who will give her the courage?”
After saying that, she glanced at Ji Song, the meaning is self-evident, it was you, Ji Song, who gave her the courage!
Ji Song smiled bitterly and explained: "This child had some unbearable experiences when he was a child, which resulted in his current stubborn temper. That is to say, I have tried my best to resolve his anger over the years, otherwise I don't know what would have happened. !”
"You tell Cheng Qian about this. This child is not suitable to enter the royal family. Don't make any plans for her in the future!"
Pingyang was stunned and asked strangely: "Given the relationship between you and Cheng Qian, why didn't you say..."
But before he finished speaking, Pingyang understood a little, rolled his eyes, and accepted this moment!
Sometimes the same thing is always easier for people to accept if the right person says it. If it were Ji Song, if he met someone with a narrow mind, he would think that Ji Song looked down on him!
"Okay, I'm here to congratulate you this time!"
Pingyang sat on the chair and squinted at Ji Song but said nothing. Ji's mother covered her mouth and smiled, and Ji Song's head was covered with black lines.
How come you are still the same as when you were young when you already have grandchildren?
But who can let the situation be stronger than others? He can only go forward and pick up the teapot to make tea for her, and then bring it to her.
"Auntie, please have tea!"
Pingyang immediately narrowed his eyes and smiled, then put on his airs and accepted it as if reluctantly.
Just when Ji Song was already a little impatient, Pingyang coughed twice and said, "You've made a lot of money this time."
"Yesterday, His Majesty asked me to go to the palace, and the reward for you was finalized."
"Guess what title it is?"
Ji Song rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You can talk if you like, if you don't talk, I'll knock you down. I have something else to do!"
This made Pingyang very angry. Fortunately, Ji's mother was there to comfort him, otherwise he would have to teach this bastard a lesson!
"How about the title of Duke of the country? This time, we can directly bypass the title of County Duke. The County Duke will be in place at once. Isn't that interesting?"
After saying that, Pingyang picked it up, looking unhappy!
"Tch, Mr. Caiguo, you thought he was a county prince or something, that's all?"
"puff!"
"Ahem!"
Pingyang immediately spat out the tea he had just drank and pointed at Ji Song without knowing what to say.
Return to the county king? Why don't you talk about the emperor?
"Do you dare to ask for it?"
Pingyang looked at Ji Song pitifully, as if he was looking at a dead person!
Ji Song shrank his neck and shook his head quickly. Are you kidding? Ever since Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, swore an oath on a white horse, the rule that the opposite sex should not be crowned king has been established.
Let's take a look, how many of the later kings with different surnames had a good ending?
Will Luo Yi, the original King of Yan, and those other kings who were granted the title at the founding of the country have a good end?
"I don't dare, even if I kill him!"
Ji Song shook his head like a rattle. He would never think about being crowned king in this life. He would only miss him a little after his death, but what's the use?
"In addition, the title of Marquis Hao has been left for you!"
But Pingyang's next words shocked Ji Shi and she quickly looked at Pingyang!
Ji's mother was also surprised. She was already ready to be granted the title of Duke, so why did she still retain the title of Marquis of Hao? What does it mean?
Pingyang looked very proud and said with a smile: "This is what the Queen and I fought for for you, but this is reserved for you Ji family in the future."
"What's the meaning?"
Ji Song still didn't understand and asked.
"You are stupid. It means that in the future, when the title drops to Marquis, it will no longer go down. As long as the Tang Dynasty still exists, then your title of Marquis will always exist. What? I see you are still a little reluctant? How about you? Can you tell His Majesty the palace?"
"How can you not, look at what you said, this...how embarrassing!"
Ji Song smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed. It was disgusting to look at him like that!
Pingyang scolded him with disgust, but Ji Song looked like he was going to do it, leaving Pingyang speechless!
This guy is a mangy dog, the kind who can't get rid of him!
Ji Song doesn't care what Pingyang or the world thinks of him. What is this?
This is true rest with the country!
A good marquis who will never be demoted will not change his title even if it is given to a prince!
So far in the Tang Dynasty, no one has been able to obtain such a title, not even in the past several hundred years!
Ever since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che implemented the policy of extending favors, there has been no permanent title in the Central Plains.
Ji Song knew that this promise had something to do with what Ji Qing and the others brought back from the sea!
Otherwise, it would be appropriate to give my previous merits to the Duke of the country, instead of giving it to a marquis who is separated from the country!
High-yield grain, gold, and distant continents with huge potential were all counted on Ji Song's head.
Of course, Ji Qing and the others are also indispensable for their titles, but they will never give out lavish rewards, otherwise the court will be in trouble!
Although this title cannot be given to him now, it will happen in the future. After he leaves, this title will definitely fall on Run'er!
"In addition, you have to be mentally prepared for Ji Qing's title. The ministers in the court will have a huge reaction. Your Majesty cannot do anything too outrageous and can only compensate in other ways."
Although Pingyang didn't say this clearly, Ji also understood the general idea. It was just that some people were worried that Ji's family was too powerful. They would rather Ji Song get a good title of Marquis and be separated from the country than Ji Qing and others wanton rewards. This The difference between one person and a group is very clear to everyone!
If Ji Qing and others are given heavy rewards, how will Ji's family check and balance them in the future? The titles of one sect, one duke and four marquises are simply crushing!
"count?"
Ji Song said cautiously.
Pingyang nodded, and Ji Song felt relieved.
If this title was given to a viscount or a baron, the officers of the long-distance naval fleet would have to make a huge difference. They narrowly escaped death and brought back the Tang Dynasty to prevent the people from starving, and even solved the food problem in the Central Plains since ancient times. Just give it to a man. Who are you insulting?
Earl is good, neither above nor below, he has entered the middle level of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, they are still young, so it is not a good thing to suddenly be in a high position. With their abilities, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so don't worry!
"Okay, don't be silly and think about how to repay His Majesty! This time he did it for you under pressure, so don't be ungrateful!"
She was so angry when she saw the stupid smile on this bastard's face. She was so angry when she thought that her descendants would not be as good as this bastard's descendants in a few generations!
"How can you not? It depends on what you said. This time, whatever you say, I have to prepare a big gift for His Majesty and His Majesty. Just wait and I promise not to disappoint His Majesty!"
Ji Song patted his chest and assured that this time the emperor acted with dignity, Ji Song couldn't be stingy, could he?
"What about the Queen and me? You won't repay the favor? This time, I and the Queen have done a great job. If we hadn't argued with reason and spent every penny, how could you be as proud as you are now?"
When I heard that this boy only remembered the good things of the emperor and forgot about himself and the queen, I was immediately furious!
Ji Song was dumbfounded now. How could he forget this?
The emperor has really given me too much, and I am getting carried away. Stay steady, you must stay steady!
"Definitely, definitely, how could I forget it? Don't worry, I will never let you and the Queen down."
Everyone has said that, what else can Ji Song say?
Give it, but you have to think about it carefully. It can't be too shabby, and it can't be better than His Majesty's, otherwise it will be strange if Li Shimin lets him go!
This time I have sacrificed all my money, and I don’t know what evil is waiting for me!
Pingyang then turned from cloudy to sunny, and said with a smile: "Then I and Queen Ji are waiting!"
After saying that, Ju stood up and said: "Okay, what I have to say is that I have finished speaking, and there is no need for my sister to send it off. My sister will take the first step!"
After saying that, he walked away briskly, but the more Ji Song thought about it, the more something was wrong. Why did Ji Song feel that Ping Yang was snickering?
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore, since I’ve agreed, just give it!
"Song'er, you have to think about it carefully. Your Majesty is so kind to me, Ji, this time. We can't be stingy no matter what. Look at the many things in our basement, do you want to send some to the palace first?" "
Ji's mother is still in a state of excitement and is ready to take out even her most important treasures in the past. You must know that on weekdays, others don't even think about it. They have to go in to check every few days because they are worried about losing something.
Ji Song had put all the drawings and things she had made over the years that could not be taken out into the basement. Even if You Ning wanted a few things, she would have scolded them back. This shows that How important things are, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are Ji’s heritage!
"It's up to you!"
Ji Song has nothing to do with it. To Ji Song's mother, these things are priceless and are family heirlooms, but to Ji Song, they are just that, no big deal.
She just regarded it as a treasure. Seeing how much she valued it, Ji couldn't help but let her go.
Seeing that her son agreed, it was Mother Ji's turn to be confused. She kept everything in the basement very tight, and she felt distressed no matter what she gave him!
But it was impossible not to give it, so under Ji Song's watchful eyes, Feng Feng Huo Huo went to the basement to check!
Ji Song doesn't care, he probably won't finish it in a while!
"Master Hou, Brother Qing and the others are here!"
Just when Ji Song was thinking about why Ji Qing and the others hadn't arrived yet, the housekeeper Lao Zheng came to report back.
"Let them in quickly!"
He couldn't help but be in a hurry. They were going to the palace to receive rewards tomorrow. They had never entered the palace seriously before, and they didn't understand the rules in the palace. He had to explain them carefully!
If there was a joke tomorrow, it would be his people who would be lost. Who made them his disciples?
After a while, Ji Qing and others arrived at the lobby, and when they saw Ji Song, they quickly stepped forward to salute!
Ji Song waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Okay, let's stop these false courtesy between us."
He asked a few people to sit down and asked, "Where are the others?"
You must know that it is not just them who are being rewarded this time, but also hundreds of people from the Ji family. However, they don't get much. Most of them are land and official rewards. Many of them are empty positions and have little power.
Also, if they were all awarded official positions with real power, would the court agree?
Official positions are nothing but pitfalls. One more person means one more competitor. Even Lao Du and Lao Fang probably won't watch helplessly at this time.
However, it does not count that there are a few people here who have made extraordinary achievements, such as those who found several kinds of grain seeds. These people must be knighted, but at most they can only be earls.
"The others are all in the academy we opened in Chang'an. When the disciples came, the palace had already sent people to teach them the rules of the palace. Now they are all looking sad!"
Ji Qing gloated.
Ji Song said angrily: "Don't have fun now. Someone will teach you the rules later. Don't be embarrassed by your teacher, otherwise I won't spare you!"
At this moment, several people seemed to be wilted and weak.
You are used to running around outside, and you suddenly have to accept these red tapes. How can they bear it?
But rules are rules, and as long as you still survive in this world, you must abide by them.
"Your rewards have been received, but I won't say anything for now. I will know tomorrow. It's a surprise for you!"
Hearing what the teacher said, several people froze like cats and looked at Ji Song eagerly.
But Ji Song pretended not to see it, and everyone saw that there was no hope, so they gave up on knowing the inside story in advance.
"Another thing I want to tell you is that no matter what happens tomorrow, don't exceed the rules. We will worry about everything after the award ceremony."
"Tomorrow there will be not only courtiers, but also envoys from various countries watching the ceremony. We must not make any mistakes and be laughed at."
Ji Qing and others quickly agreed upon hearing this, but Liu Xiancheng was a little distracted!
Ji Song sighed secretly, of course he knew why he was like this!
Kong Yingda is not a good person either. It was definitely Emperor He who cooperated well this time. After all, they are monarchs and ministers who have been working together for decades, and it is a perfect match!
It's impossible for this kid to stay out of the situation this time. He can't have his cake and eat it too, so he has to give up.
However, this may not be a bad thing. In this official-based Tang Dynasty, if you want to make a difference without a certain identity, you really can't do it.
What happens next depends on his destiny...
