Among all the officials, the ones who were most loyal to Qin Hao were Grand Preceptor Wen Zhong, Prime Minister Shang Rong, and General Huang Gun. These three had contributed greatly to Qin Hao becoming the Emperor.
In the original history, Wen Zhong and Shang Rong were the important ministers entrusted by Emperor Yi. They had done their best for the Great Shang Dynasty and died. As for Huang Gun, although he and his son had surrendered to Xi Qi in the original history, King Zhou had gone too far and could not blame anyone else.
But now, Wen Zhong and Shang Rong were both Great Shang's Grand Preceptor and Prime Minister. They were both extremely important officials, so there was nothing to confer.
But how could this question be difficult for our protagonist?
Ever since Qin Hao cultivated the first level of the Primordial Chaotic Indestructible Body, not only had his physique been completely reborn, but his soul had also completely transformed. His memory had received an unbelievable improvement, and he could recall everything he had experienced in his previous life, including what he had seen, heard, felt, and thought.
How could Qin Hao, who had all the memories of his previous life, not be able to handle this kind of matter of winning over his subordinates?
Didn't Wen Zhong's official position already reach its peak and he couldn't be promoted?
Qin Hao could learn from an emperor of the Tang Dynasty and add the double whip in Wen Zhong's hand to the King's Double Whip. He could beat the unfilial descendants of the royal family and the evil people who played with power. He could also add the right to act first and report later. How about that? The problem would be solved.
In the Shang Dynasty, this kind of reward was definitely a great honor that ordinary people could not imagine. Even Wen Zhong was extremely excited after hearing this reward. From then on, he was even more loyal to Qin Hao.
As for Prime Minister Shang Rong, Qin Hao learned from the rogue emperor of Han Dynasty and gave him an iron certificate. As long as he had this iron certificate, no matter what crime Shang Rong or his descendants committed, of course, rebellion was not included. They could use this iron certificate to avoid death.
Hearing Qin Hao's reward, Shang Rong was so excited that tears streamed down his face. His hands trembled as he carefully took the red letter and iron ticket from Qin Hao. Then, he directly knelt down in front of Qin Hao and kowtowed continuously. If Qin Hao didn't insist on pulling him up, he would have kowtowed to death in the Imperial Court.
After the reward, the rest of the officials and dukes were in an uproar.
This was because Qin Hao's reward for Wen Zhong and Shang Rong could be considered extremely glorious.
Huang Gun was the happiest. Qin Hao had ascended the throne, and his efforts were no less than Wen Zhong and Shang Rong's. Moreover, he was Qin Hao's father-in-law. If Wen Zhong and Shang Rong could receive such an unprecedented reward, what kind of reward could he get?
Qin Hao didn't disappoint Huang Gun either. He directly conferred the title of King Wuwei of Great Shang and gave him the title of Grand Marshal of the army. His son, Huang Feihu, was granted the title of King Wucheng of the Zhenguo to assist him in commanding the three armies.
With this reward, Huang Gun and Huang Feihu immediately bowed to Qin Hao like Wen Zhong and Shang Rong. From then on, they were loyal to Qin Hao.
After Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, and Huang Gun were rewarded, it was time to reward the four great dukes, the eight hundred minor dukes, and the remaining officials.
Of course, the following rewards given to the various dukes and civil and military officials were definitely not as good as the rewards given to Wen Zhong and Shang Rong.
After all, if everyone's reward was similar to Wen Zhong and Shang Rong's, how could it highlight the weight of Qin Hao's reward to Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, and Huang Gun and his son?
Moreover, after obtaining the loyalty of Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, and Huang Gun, the two major powers of Great Shang were completely under Qin Hao's control. There was no need to reward the officials one by one to win over the hearts of the people.
As for the remaining four great dukes and eight hundred smaller dukes, when Qin Hao implemented the central power system in the future, the first thing he would deal with would be these dukes who pretended to be obedient but were secretly rebellious. Since they were going to be eliminated sooner or later, how could Qin Hao reward them so much that it would increase the difficulty of dealing with them in the future?
After the coronation hall and rewarding the officials, Qin Hao held a banquet in Xian Qing Hall to entertain the officials.
After a round of toasting, Qin Hao summoned Wen Zhong to Dragon De Palace Hall alone.
This was because when Qin Hao cultivated the first layer of the Primordial Chaotic Indestructible Body, he wanted to compete with Wen Zhong to understand the strength of the immortals in the World of Gods.
After all, no matter how powerful a king in the mortal world was, he could not control the immortals. Even the Heavenly Court, which was in charge of the three worlds, could not control the disciples of the saints 'sects and those powerful cultivators. If those immortals wanted to destroy a mortal dynasty, although they could not do it personally, they could use some small tricks.
As for the God Sealing Tribulation, it was the Six Sages who took action and transferred the killing tribulation to the human world. They used the rise and fall of the mortal world's dynasties, the destruction of the Shang Dynasty, and the rise and fall of the Zhou Dynasty as a way to resolve the killing tribulation.
Therefore, Qin Hao had to understand the cultivation realms of immortals and the corresponding power of each realm. Only by knowing himself and his enemy could he deal with those immortals better.
