Jing Yi went to the front and knelt down to salute respectfully, "Chu Jingyan, a grass-roots man, kowtows to His Majesty."

Xiao Chenghan looked at the woman in men's clothing not far away and said, "Let's get flat."

Jing Yi said: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then Jing Yi stood up.

Xiao Chenghan said: "Chu Jingyan, I have seen the winter wheat you planted. The full grains of wheat are indeed good food. It is a great achievement that you can increase the harvest of wheat by two stones, and the waterwheel you created is also a great achievement." It can improve the problem of drought in the field. The heated kang you created can save many people from freezing in winter. This is all thanks to you. I hope you will continue to work hard in the future and continue to try to grow more high-yielding grains.

I have always distinguished rewards and punishments, since Chu Jingyan has made such a great contribution to you, then I will reward you. "

Said Xiao Chenghan waved to Han Li.

Han Li took a few steps forward and opened the imperial decree in his hand, singing and shouting: "Chu Jingyan accepts the decree."

Jing Yi immediately knelt down.

Han Li began to read the imperial decree, "The emperor said, today there is Chu Jingyan, who is not afraid of hardships and tirelessly, and has created a new method of farming. He has made great contributions to our dynasty. He is a talent of the group. Today, Chu Jingyan is granted the title of Marquis of Anle. A mansion, I hope it will continue to work hard and make new achievements. This is it!"

All the princes and ministers under the emperor's decree were immediately stunned.A boy at such a young age is now a Marquis?Was also rewarded with a mansion?It's too easy too.

Jing Yi was also a little stunned, wondering what the emperor was going to do?Didn't he know that he was a woman? Why did he still confer titles on her?Moreover, the title of marquis seems to be a title commonly used by princesses. Does the emperor know that a woman gave her this title on purpose?

Xiao Yilin was also shocked, the father didn't mention this matter at all yesterday, it was too sudden.And sooner or later the little girl will be restored to her daughter's body, and now she has been conferred the title of marquis, so if she regains her daughter's body in the future, won't it be said that she has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor?

At this time, Yan Jishan, Marquis of Ningyuan, stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Chu Jingyan has indeed made great achievements, but his achievements are not enough to confer the title of Marquis. Please think again, Your Majesty."

Then several ministers came out and said that Chu Jingyan was too much to confer such a high title as a marquis.

Xiao Chenghan looked at the anxious expressions of the ministers below and said sarcastically: "Why, are you jealous? Then you should also make meritorious deeds. As long as you make great achievements like Chu Jingyan's, I will reward you as well. Don't be jealous of others.

I have always distinguished between rewards and punishments. Chu Jingyan increased the yield of wheat by two stones, and created a new method of planting two crops a year. If the whole country cultivates according to this method, do you know how much our Jin country’s grain will increase?This is related to the life and death of the people and the stability of the court. What a great achievement this is. Do you still think it is too much to make her a Marquis?I still feel insufficient. "

At this time, Duke Ding Lu Wenpu stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Chu has a heart for the country. He has grown high-yield grains, created new farming methods, and added a waterwheel that can irrigate the farmland. All of these are great achievements. Your Majesty respects It is His Majesty's wisdom to reward those who have meritorious service and confer the title of Marquis Duke of Chu."

Seeing that someone finally agreed with him, Xiao Chenghan nodded and said: "Mr. Dingguo is right. I think the rewards are not enough. According to my decree, I will also give Chu Jingyan a hundred hectares of fertile land and a thousand taels of gold. Chu Jingyan, you accept the order Bar."

Jing Yi saw that the Jin emperor was determined.But it's really inappropriate for a 15-year-old girl to be made a Marquis.

Jing Yi knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Cao Min feels that he has not made such great achievements, so he is really ashamed of His Majesty's reward. Please take it back."

Xiao Chenghan looked at the little girl below who was still calm and nodded secretly, and then said: "How can I change my will? Since I have already made a decree, I will definitely not change it. Chu Jingyan, you don't have to belittle yourself, your achievements will last forever. , Your title is a matter of course.

I hope you can continue to improve seeds and increase food production. "

Seeing that his father was serious, Xiao Yilin said, "Jing Yan, my father clearly rewards and punishes you. You have made great achievements and my father will reward you. Just accept the order."

Jing Yi also felt that she couldn't evade any more, and that would be a little ignorant.

Immediately Jing Yi knelt down and kowtowed, "The minister leads the decree to thank you."

Some ministers at the bottom saw that the more they persuaded the emperor to take back the order, the richer the emperor's reward would be, so no one dared to persuade him any more.What if I persuade the emperor to increase the reward again?
From the moment Jing Yi received the decree, she became An Lehou of the Jin Kingdom, an An Lehou whose real identity was a woman.Jing Yi felt unreal as if she was stepping on a cloud.

Most of the ministers in the court are envious of Jing Yi being granted the title of Marquis at a young age, some of them will never be able to reach such a high position in their lifetime.

Some ministers are purely jealous. How can they be convinced that they are not as high as a little doll at such an age.

Among them, Yan Jishan, who was dismissed by the emperor in public today, is full of resentment.It's really annoying that he has the same status as a teenager at such an old age.

He has always wanted to be conferred the title of a duke of a country, but he has never been able to do so, but now he has been equaled by a young man.And this boy is still on Xiao Yilin's side, Yan Jishan can't be happy.

There are not only ministers in the court, but also several princes.Although they didn't take action to prevent Jing Yi from being granted the title of Marquis, they were also unwilling that a person who was close to Xiao Yilin could obtain such a high status.

But they didn't speak because of their special identities, but the ministers they made privately spoke for them.But obviously they didn't persuade the emperor to take back the order, and even increased the reward, which made them very depressed.

Among all the princes, only Xiao Yilin was really happy for Jing Yi, the other princes couldn't be happy at all.

After coming down to court, Han Li stopped Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi, and the emperor wanted to meet them alone in Zichen Hall.

Xiao Chenghan looked at the two people who walked in together, and when they got closer, Xiao Chenghan could see the little girl's face clearly, she was very heroic and not feminine at all.I don't know if this little girl has changed her appearance in some way or if she has always looked like this.

After Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi saluted together, Xiao Chenghan said: "You all stop standing, sit down."

After sitting down, Xiao Yilin asked, "Father, why do you want to knight Jing Yan?"

Xiao Chenghan said with a smile: "What's the matter, Chu Jingyan has already made great contributions, shouldn't I reward her?"

Xiao Yilin looked at the little girl and said, "But Jing Yan is a woman? There has never been a woman named Marquis."

Xiao Chenghan said with a smile: "Who said that women can't be conferred titles? As long as they have made great achievements, I will be rewarded equally regardless of whether they are male or female. If there were none before, then I will confer a title on a Marquis."
