Zhangtai Palace.
The First Emperor bestowed a name that most of the officials had never heard of!
Han Qiu, the Marquis of the Inner Pass!
Rank 19 military merits, second only to Marquis Che!
He had great achievements, the ability to govern the world, the ability to save the people of Kuaiji from fire and water, and the ability to help the building collapse.
……
All the officials exchanged glances!
Right Prime Minister Wang Wan walked out of the court and raised the ivory board in his hand."May I ask Your Majesty, is this Han Qiu the person who announced the results that day?”
"Yes!"
Ying Zheng looked at Right Prime Minister Wang Wan and acknowledged Han Qiu's identity. He knew that he would meet some obstacles in rewarding Han Qiu today. After all, Great Qin's military merit system was still there.
However, some achievements could not be measured by the military merit system. Sometimes, the merit of saving people was higher than the merit of killing people!
"Your Majesty, I believe that the person who announced the results has contributed to the people of Kuaiji. He has indeed managed to cure the plague, but he did not go to Kuaiji personally. The person who really controlled the plague is General Meng Tian. I believe that this person can be conferred the title of court pharmacist, and the person to be conferred the title of Marquis is General Meng Tian!”
Ying Zheng looked at Right Prime Minister Wang Wan with a displeased expression, but he did not reprimand Wang Wan. Instead, he asked,""When the plague broke out in Kuaiji, why couldn't you tell me how to cure it? When I wrote the Imperial Roll, it was clearly written that whoever could cure the plague would be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Families and rewarded with thousands of gold. Since you don't agree with the person who revealed the results, why didn't you say it in public that day in the hall?”
"On that day, when the person who announced the results enters the court, if you walk out of the court and tell me that even if the person who announced the results cured the plague, he could only become a court pharmacist, I will definitely send you to Kuaiji Prefecture and let you obtain this merit!”
Ying Zheng's words made Right Prime Minister Wang Wan's face turn green. Although the First Emperor's voice was not loud, he was rendered speechless by his rebuttal!
"I will reward Meng Tian. I will also reward the person who revealed the results!”Ying Zheng's voice reverberated throughout the hall, and the other courtiers had already stopped speaking.
His Majesty had already made it very clear. The emperor's words were a golden law. When the imperial notice was posted, he had already promised that whoever revealed the notice to cure the plague would be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Families!
Now that the plague in Kuaiji was under control, it was time for the Emperor to fulfill his promise!
In the court, Wang Wan returned to the court. Even though he was indignant, he didn't dare to say anything else. Otherwise, if the First Emperor asked him again," If you have the ability, why don't you go and cure the plague?" How would he answer?
While the court was silent, Prime Minister Li Si walked out of the court.""Your Majesty, I believe that the person who reveals the results should be rewarded. Your Majesty, rewarding the person who reveals the results is the way to make the world submit!”
When the officials heard Li Si's words, they were completely silent. They knew that if they spoke again, they would be questioning the First Emperor.
Even though Li Si was not from Old Qin and did not have a foundation in Great Qin, he was the Prime Minister and had great authority!
With Li Si's voice in the court, the matter of rewarding the person who revealed the results could no longer be changed!
"Pass on my imperial decree, reward the person who reveals the results, Marquis of the Inner Pass!”
After Ying Zheng conferred the title of Han Qiu, an official immediately made an imperial edict and brought the seal of the Marquis of the Inner Pass to Han Qiu's residence!
……
In Han Qiu's residence.
Xiao He paced back and forth in the courtyard. He had something to ask Han Qiu, but he didn't know how to ask.
He had heard a lot of news in Xianyang, and one of the most important news was that Kuaiji Prefecture had announced the results…
Judging from all the information, the person who revealed the rankings was probably Han Qiu.
However, Xiao He did not know how to tell Han Qiu. He had followed Han Qiu to Xianyang and had never officially revealed his thoughts, nor had he officially pledged loyalty to Han Qiu.
Han Qiu and Xiao He had always addressed each other as Brother Han and Brother Xiao.
Suddenly, Xiao He stopped in his tracks. He turned around and walked into the main hall. Han Qiu was drinking tea in the room. After Xiao He entered the main hall, he asked with a solemn expression,"Brother Han, when you first entered Xianyang, did you enter the Imperial Board?”
When Han Qiu heard Xiao He's words, she smiled and said," That's right, I'm the one who unveiled the Imperial Roll!"
"The person who saved the thousands of people in Kuaiji County and made a great contribution to Great Qin was Brother Han?”
Xiao He immediately became excited.
After entering Xianyang, Xiao He did not know how Han Qiu had managed to enter the center of Great Qin's power. In fact, Xiao He had felt that Han Qiu had been lying low, and he did not know what Han Qiu was waiting for.
He did not dare to ask.
It was only today that he finally confessed his guess to Han Qiu!
Xiao He saw Ling Yunzhi!
Xiao He felt that the world in front of him had suddenly opened up. The First Emperor's words carried weight. Whoever could expel the plague god and plague ghost would be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Families!
If Brother Han manages to cure the plague in Kuaiji County, he will definitely be conferred the title of Marquis!
Xiao He looked at Han Qiu again and bowed to the ground."Brother Han, please accept Xiao He's bow. Xiao He is a citizen of Kuaiji County, and I thank Brother Xiao for saving my life! If Brother Han doesn't mind Xiao He's stupidity, Xiao He is willing to follow by Brother Han's side and be a small official. He will follow the lord and serve him!”
"Ding-dong. Do you accept Xiao He's loyalty?”
" Xiao He is loyal to you. You will open the strategy panel…"
Han Qiu had waited for a month, and after waiting for a month, she finally received the loyalty of Xiao He, the Prime Minister of the Ancient Era. Han Qiu stood up and hurriedly helped Xiao He up.
"Brother Xiao, you don't have to be like this. I can obtain Xiao He's loyalty, just like sneaking into the Dragon Abyss!”
[Ding-dong. Accept Xiao He's allegiance!]
Xiao He. (Three heroes of the Han Dynasty, one of the prime ministers in history)
[Strength: 80]
[Stamina: 80]
Intelligence: 110
Internal Affairs: 120.
[Power play: 100]
Loyalty: 100
[Characteristics: Prime Minister, Virtuous Official, Assistant, Internal Affairs]
Han Qiu's system's internal affairs panel opened, and Xiao He's name appeared in it. Xiao He was the first historical official to follow Han Qiu. His intelligence and internal affairs had surpassed Li Si!
" My lord, Xiao He believes that you should have made a decision earlier. The plague in Kuaiji Prefecture has been controlled. The reward for you will definitely come. The First Emperor is a man of his word. He will definitely make you a marquis. Please make preparations as soon as possible. I have already sorted out all the forces in Xianyang…"
After Xiao He finished speaking, he placed a roll of tidied bamboo slips in front of Han Qiu.
After Han Qiu opened the bamboo scroll, she saw the six factions of the Great Qin Empire…
Ying Royal Family…
The meritorious clans, Wang Meng and Wang Meng.
The civil officials of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Wan, Chen Pu, and others…
Powerful officials: Li Si, Wei Liao…
Great Qin celebrities, Chunyu Yue, Xiaoyao Zi, and other famous philosophers…
The descendants of the royal families of the six dynasties…
Although the six states were destroyed, the royal families of the six states were preserved by the First Emperor.
When the First Emperor attacked the six states, he didn't exterminate them…
When Han Qiu looked at the contents of the bamboo slip, she thought to herself,"The bamboo slips are thick and heavy. It's time to make paper…"
Outside the mansion, a clamor could be heard. Horseshoes, gongs, drums, and people's voices…
"Master! Master! Prime Minister Li Si had personally arrived and was ordered by His Majesty to reward his master…
In the backyard, Gao Lan also heard the commotion outside the manor.
She remembered what Han Qiu had said to her yesterday. It couldn't be. Could he really be a high-ranking official?
This was simply unbelievable; it had only been two months since they had transmigrated to Great Qin!
Gao Lan stood up and listened carefully to the sounds outside the courtyard…
