Chapter 403 Reward
"Your Majesty, I also agree with establishing the Hall of Merit..."
"I second that proposal..."
As soon as Xiao He finished speaking, the other ministers stood up and echoed his opinion.
They all agreed to establish the Hall of Merit, and the benefits of establishing the Hall of Merit were obvious to everyone in the court.
Ying Chen nodded as he watched this scene and said, "Since all my ministers have decided to suspend the construction of the Hall of Merit, Xiao He, listen to my command..."
"Your subject is here..."
Xiao He quickly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"I hereby appoint you to take full responsibility for the establishment of the Hall of Merit. The court officials will fully cooperate with you. I want you to establish the Hall of Merit as quickly as possible..."
Ying Chen said in a deep voice.
"My lord, I obey the order..."
Xiao He said solemnly.
"The one who proposed establishing the Hall of Merit was a member of the imperial clan named Ying Hao. What do you all think is the best way I should reward him...?"
Ying Chen spoke again.
Now that the decision has been made to establish the Hall of Merit, those who proposed it should naturally be rewarded. However, the method of rewarding them still needs to be discussed with the ministers.
"Your Majesty, Ying Hao's proposal to establish a Hall of Merit is of great merit to our Great Qin. I believe the reward should not be too meager..."
As soon as Ying Chen finished speaking, Xun Yu stepped forward and spoke.
"What does Minister Xun think should be done to reward them?"
Ying Chen looked at Xun Yu and asked.
"I believe he should be promoted three ranks and rewarded with some spiritual treasures..."
Xun Yu said respectfully.
"What do you all think?"
Ying Chen looked at the others and asked.
"We have no objection..."
The ministers all spoke in unison.
"Hmm! By imperial decree, Ying Hao is hereby promoted to the rank of Assistant General for his meritorious service in offering advice, to assist former General Murong Haoxuan in managing the army. He is also to be rewarded with one piece of Earth-grade armor, one piece of Earth-grade spiritual weapon, and one hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones..."
"In addition, I will bestow upon Ying Hao's lineage a Heaven-Rank cultivation technique, allowing it to be passed down through generations..."
Ying Chen nodded, and then gave the order.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
All the ministers shouted in unison.
Soon, news of Ying Hao's reward reached his home...
Ying Hao's mansion is located east of Xianyang City, already on the outskirts of the city.
Ying Hao's lineage has gradually declined, and in this generation, Ying Hao is the only outstanding member.
When the news from the imperial court arrived, the entire mansion was in an uproar.
Yinghao's father led the whole family out of the mansion excitedly to welcome the arrival of the angel.
"Master, Hao'er has made something of himself! He has actually received a reward from the Emperor. It seems that our lineage has a good chance of rising to prominence!"
"Yes! Patriarch, I've always seen that Hao'er was destined for greatness, that he would definitely amount to something great in the future. And look! It's come true..."
Ying Can was surrounded by people, their faces full of smiles. They were of the same lineage as Ying Hao, and as the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. They also felt honored that Ying Hao had gained the emperor's favor.
Ying Can, the head of the family, was all smiles. Ying Hao was his son, and he was happier than anyone else.
At this time, some other members of the royal family also arrived. They had also heard about Ying Hao's deeds and came to see what was going on, hoping to establish a connection with Ying Hao's lineage.
"Brother Ying Can, congratulations! Nephew Ying Hao has received the Emperor's reward and has become a military officer at such a young age. He will surely rise to great heights in the future. Brother Ying Can, don't forget your brothers when you become successful!"
A member of the royal family approached Ying Can and congratulated him with a smile.
His smile looked stiff, and it was hard to tell how much of it was genuine.
"Haha! Congratulations! I never expected that kid Ying Hao would achieve what he has today! Don't be discouraged, our sons are all in the army now, are we afraid of not having opportunities to make merit?"
Ying Can clasped his hands in greeting to the arriving members of the royal family.
"Hahaha! That's true. Looking back now, it was a wise decision to send our son into the army. My son is a squad leader now, in charge of over a hundred men!"
These members of the royal family gathered together, chatting and laughing. The royal family is much better off now than before.
"Marquis Dingfang has arrived..."
At that moment, someone shouted, and the crowd automatically parted to make way.
An old man with a cane walked out from the crowd.
"I've met the Marquis!"
When the members of the royal family saw Marquis Dingfang, they quickly bowed and greeted him.
Marquis Dingfang was their benefactor!
If it weren't for Marquis Dingfang's guidance, they wouldn't have achieved their current status.
Marquis Dingfang waved his hand, walked to Ying Can's side, a smile on his face, reached out and patted Ying Can's shoulder, saying, "You've raised a good son..."
"My lord, if it weren't for you, Hao'er wouldn't have achieved what he has today. You are our benefactor..."
Ying Can's eyes reddened, and he bowed deeply to Marquis Dingfang, saying...
He had always thought that his lineage was destined to continue to decline. If he hadn't listened to Marquis Dingfang and sent Ying Hao to join the army, his lineage wouldn't be where it is today.
"No need for such formalities..."
Marquis Dingfang helped Ying Can up and said with a smile.
Then, he looked at the members of the royal family who were plotting something and said, "Now that Ying Hao has achieved something, it seems that my decision back then was correct. After you go back, you must send a message to your descendants, urging them to learn from Ying Hao. Although they may not be able to reach Ying Hao's level, they will definitely be much better off than they are now..."
"We will heed Your Excellency's instructions..."
All the members of the royal family respectfully bowed to Marquis Dingfang and said...
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Just then, a shrill voice rang out.
Upon hearing this voice, everyone present stood at attention respectfully.
A eunuch carrying a bright yellow imperial edict flew in from afar.
"Ying Shen, receive the imperial decree!"
The eunuch opened the imperial edict, and an intense imperial aura instantly emanated from it, causing everyone present to unconsciously kneel down.
"Colonel Ying Hao has rendered meritorious service with his strategy, which greatly pleases me. He is hereby promoted to Assistant General to assist General Murong Haoxuan in managing the army. He is also awarded one piece of Earth-grade armor, one piece of Earth-grade spiritual weapon, and one hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones..."
"Furthermore, a Heavenly Rank cultivation technique will be bestowed upon the lineage of the imperial clan member Ying Can, to be passed down to future generations..."
The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict read it aloud. After finishing, the eunuch approached Ying Can with a smile and said, "Lord Ying, please receive the edict!"
Ying Can had not yet recovered from the contents of the imperial edict. Hearing the eunuch's words, he hurriedly accepted the edict.
"Thank you for your hard work, angel..."
Ying Can said cautiously.
"Lord Ying, you flatter me. This is merely my duty..."
The eunuch chuckled, then took out a cultivation manual from his storage ring: "This is a Heaven-rank cultivation manual bestowed upon your lineage by the Emperor. The rest of the rewards have already been sent to General Ying Hao..."
Ying Can looked at the cultivation manual emanating Daoist charm in the eunuch's hand, his eyes filled with excitement, and he tremblingly accepted the manual.
The others also stared at the cultivation technique with heavy breaths, but although they longed for it immensely, they dared not covet it in the slightest. This was a gift from the Emperor, and if they dared to reach for it, they would be courting death.
"Your Majesty, I thank you greatly..."
Holding the cultivation manual, Ying Can knelt down and bowed deeply towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.
Cultivation techniques are the most important thing for a family or a power.
This is related to the prosperity or decline of the family.
Previously, their lineage's cultivation technique was only a Xuan-level technique. Although it could be practiced, the effect was not very good.
Now that Ying Chen has actually bestowed upon them a Heaven-rank cultivation technique, how could he not be excited?
With this Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, one can imagine that their lineage will take off completely.
