Not long after, the eunuch finished reading Emperor Jing's edict.
None of the ministers made a sound. The outcome of the rebellion had already been decided. How could any minister oppose Emperor Jing's punishment so unknowingly?
Moreover, this was the result of the discussion between Emperor Jing of Han and some important ministers!
Seeing that no one spoke, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty nodded slightly and said,
"Since all the beloved ministers have no objections, then issue an edict according to this!”
After saying that, Emperor Jing of Han swept his deep eyes across the many civil and military officials in the hall and said solemnly,
" Dear ministers, countless soldiers fought bravely against the enemies and made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion of the seven countries. They were the ones who wiped out the rebellion of the seven countries. Today, I will reward these meritorious soldiers handsomely…"
The ministers in the hall were shocked when they heard Emperor Jing's words!
Finally!
The imperial court was about to officially reward the generals who had made great contributions.
Countless people were filled with excitement and envy!
Tian Meng was also filled with anticipation. He wondered what kind of reward he would receive for his contributions.
Soon, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty had the eunuchs beside him read out the reward edict!
"…General Li He will be rewarded with 100 pieces of gold, 100 pieces of cloth, and 100 stones of millet. General Hong Li, Qian Jun Du Wei, rank of 2000 koku…"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
……
When the generals heard their names, they stood up excitedly and bowed to Emperor Jing of Han.
Many of the officials in the court began to discuss the rewards given by the generals.
It was obvious that a group of generals had been rewarded or promoted because of this battle!
The eunuch did not read quickly because every time he read about the generals who had made great contributions, Emperor Jing of Han would say one or two words.
After a while!
"Gonggao Marquis Han Tui will be a general…"
"Your subject is here!"
Han Tuidang immediately stood up.
" In this battle, Gonggao Marquis was granted 2,000 households of food, 800 gold, 800 bolts of cloth, 800 stones of millet…"
Han Tui also revealed a look of joy and excitement. He didn't care much about gold, cloth, and corn, but the sudden increase of two thousand households in his fief was much more precious than gold and silver treasures. This was a great reward.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Han Tuidang bowed and said to Emperor Jing of Han.
"Gonggao Hou, in this battle, we cut off the rebel army's rations and also pacified the rebel army of the four countries with General Luan Bu.”
Emperor Jing of Han smiled and nodded at Gonggao Hou.
When the officials below heard Han Tui's reward, they were also extremely envious. An increase of 2,000 fiefdoms was such a great honor!
Nowadays, the imperial court was very strict about the fiefs given to officials. Unless one had made a great contribution, they would not be easily granted fiefs.
Seeing that Emperor Jing of Han did not say anything else, the eunuch next to him continued,
"General Tian Ke…"
"Your subject is here!"
Hearing the voice, Tian Meng stepped out from behind.
The ministers heard the voice coming from behind the hall and turned their heads curiously.
Looking at Tian Meng, many of the officials frowned!
Tian Yan? Who was this?
Why had he never heard of it before? It was actually ranked behind Gong Gaohou? Could it be that his contribution was greater than Gong Gaohou's?
The ministers were all shocked, especially when they saw that Tian Meng was still so young!
While they were still in shock, the eunuch's voice continued,
"In this battle, General Tian He was given the title of Marquis of Wu 'an, 2,000 households of food, 1,000 gold, 1,000 bolts of cloth, and 1,000 stones of grain!”
Marquis!
When the ministers heard this, their eyes widened and they looked at Tian Qiong in disbelief!
What contribution did this general make??He actually became a marquis?
Some of the officials who were familiar with Tian Meng were even more shocked. Wasn't he just a lowly official a few months ago? How did he become a marquis?
The hall suddenly became much noisier!
Not only were the ministers who didn't know Tian Meng discussing, but many generals also looked at him with envy and amazement.
Marquis!
This was a reward that countless generals dreamed of!
It was just that the title of Marquis was not something that could be given just like that. One had to either behead someone in battle to meet the standards or make a great contribution. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to become a Marquis!
Especially since the Great Han Dynasty didn't have many battles and had few opportunities to make contributions, it was even more difficult to become a marquis!
However, such a young general was actually conferred the title of Marquis in one go. Moreover, he was not conferred the lowest food city, but actually 2,000 households!
Two thousand marquises!
What kind of contribution did this young general make?
Some of the officials in the hall looked at the generals beside them and asked…
Standing in the hall, Tian Qiong was also surprised!
According to his estimations, it shouldn't be a problem for him to become a marquis. After all, he had contributed quite a bit this time. He had contributed a lot, killed the enemy, and even beheaded the enemy.
But he didn't expect there to be two thousand households, and it was a Marquis name with such great significance!
This kind of marquis title was usually given to those who had made great contributions and possessed extremely high power and status in the imperial court.
Tian Mo remembered that in history, he was given the title of Marquis of Wu 'an because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne. He became the Grand Marshal and was in charge of the military affairs of the country.
He did not expect that Emperor Jing of Han would give him the title of Marquis of Wu 'an!
While Tian Qiong was still in shock, Emperor Jing of Han looked at Tian Qiong and continued,
"In addition, I have decided to appoint you as the Left Lieutenant General!”
Hearing Emperor Jing's words, Tian Meng's eyes widened.
Zhonglang General!
This was an official position in charge of the Royal Guards!
Unlike the Zhonglang Generals of the Three Kingdoms period, who were only middle and low-level officers, the current Zhonglang Generals were high-ranking officials with a salary of 2,000 stone!
He didn't expect Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty to promote his official position and let him manage the Imperial Guards. This showed that he trusted him very much!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Tian Xiong bowed.
The reward this time surprised and delighted him!
At this moment, countless officials in the hall opened their mouths in shock!
Not only was he conferred the title of Marquis, but he was also given such an important high-ranking official position!
Hua, hua!
In the main hall, many ministers could not help but start discussing!
"What contribution did he make? Why is His Majesty so generous to him?"
"I don't remember him among the generals who went to war.”
"Isn't he Langguan? How did he suddenly make such a great contribution?”
"Don't you know? I heard that he was the one who beheaded the leader of the rebel army, Wu Wang Liu Bi!”
"What is it? Is this true?"
"I also heard from other generals that although this Tian Meng is young, his martial arts skills are extraordinary. He has made great contributions in this war…"
