In the front hall of Weiyang Palace, all the civil and military officials had arrived. Han Xin and Huo Qubing walked into the ranks.
Not long after, Ling Tian walked out from the back hall in his dragon robe. Patriarch Sunflower followed closely behind Ling Tian with his head lowered and his body slightly bent. It was impossible to tell that he was an Immortal Soul Second Level cultivator.
Seeing Ling Tian arrive, all the officials knelt down and shouted,""The Great Emperor's divine life is boundless and eternal.”
Seated on the dragon throne, Ling Tian said calmly,""Rise."
"Thank you, Great Emperor." The officials stood up again.
"Do you have anything to report?”Ling Tian said.
One second, three seconds, five seconds, ten seconds
The hall was silent. No official spoke.
"Since none of you have anything to say, then I have something to say.”Ling Tian said.
"Please speak, Great Emperor." The civil and military officials bowed slightly and shouted.
"Han Xin, Huo Qubing, please accept the title." Looking at the two of them, Ling Tian raised his head.
"Great Emperor." The two of them took a step forward and knelt on one knee.
"Huo Qubing, from now on, you are the Marquis Champion of the Lingyu Sacred Dynasty. You have 60% of the military power of the Lingyu Sacred Dynasty and can mobilize the entire country's troops.”
"Han Xin, from now on, you are the Huaiyin Marquis of the Lingyu Sacred Dynasty. You have 40% of the military power of the Lingyu Sacred Dynasty, and you will assist Huo Qubing in managing the army.”
"Huo Qubing is rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, a residence of the Marquis of Champion, a certain amount of silk, a certain amount of servants, ten thousand mu of fertile land, dozens of precious stones, dozens of rare treasures, and dozens of rare treasures.”
"Han Xin, reward ten thousand taels of silver, a residence of the Marquis of Huaiyin, a certain amount of silk, a certain number of servants, ten thousand mu of fertile land, dozens of precious stones, dozens of rare treasures, and dozens of rare treasures.”
With an indifferent expression, Ling Tian, who had long thought of this, slowly spoke of the plans he had made earlier.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord." After Ling Tian finished speaking, Han Xin and Huo Qubing kowtowed three times and shouted.
Seeing Han Xin and Huo Qubing being rewarded by Ling Tian, their expressions instantly turned into envy and jealousy.
"Rise." After saying that, Ling Tian looked at the officials and none of them dared to look at him in the eye," This Emperor has always been fair in his rewards and punishments. If you have any merits, this Emperor will not treat you unfairly. Even if you are conferred the title of Marquis, as long as you have the ability.”
His voice was calm and emotionless, but the eyes of the officials lit up as a passion rose in their hearts.
Marquis as prime minister!
This was something that they had been dreaming of day and night, even for the old foxes. However, Ling Tian had actually promised them such a big cake today, so how could they not be excited?
"Now, the military power of the entire country has been fully recovered. The invasion of the enemy country has also been resolved, and I have completely controlled the entire country. How do you think we should celebrate such a major event?”
Ling Tian said slowly.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Zhuge Liang took a step forward.
"Oh? Speak." Ling Tian looked at Zhuge Liang with interest. Ling Tian still valued such a top strategist.
"In half a year, it will be the annual Heaven Worship Ceremony. Your Majesty, you just ascended the throne this year.”
"I believe that you can make grand preparations for the Heaven Worship Ceremony. This time, you can deduct a month's tax from the entire country as a celebration.”
Zhuge Liang looked at Ling Tian solemnly.
"Alright, then according to Minister Zhuge, pass on my order. The Lingyu Sacred Dynasty will be exempted from taxes for the next month.”
Others might have thought about it for a while, but with Ling Tian's brain, he could already roughly understand what Zhuge Liang meant. He looked at Zhuge Liang and Ling Tian with admiration.
Not only could the exemption of taxes for a month be used as a celebration, but it could also gather the hearts of the people and make the people love and respect him, the newly appointed emperor, even more. It could not be said to be the best of both worlds.
As for the Heaven Worshipping Ceremony, it was a custom of the Saint Martial Continent, or rather, it was a mysterious matter.
Because this matter involved the fate of the country!
Every year, the Heaven Worship Ceremony was held before the Spring Festival. It was still July, so there was still half a year left before the Heaven Worship Ceremony.
"The Emperor is wise." Zhuge Liang bowed slightly.
"The Emperor is wise."
The civil and military officials shouted.
"Since there's nothing else, let's withdraw." Ling Tian stood up from his throne.
"Farewell, Great Emperor." The officials shouted in unison. Date:**:41PM
