C305 Appreciation
Then, he heard Wei Zhongxian say: "Ninth Prince, Shen Muqing's achievements were outstanding, and during the period when the Huainan Domain took office, he exorcised the Mongol Steel Cavalry, and took back half of the land of the sixteen prefectures of Yan Yun. "Silk and silk …"0
All of a sudden, the court was shocked, and the officials were in an uproar. Shen Muqing's eyes flashed a hint of surprise, not because of his title, but because from the looks of the officials, they shouldn't be clear about this.
Could it be that the Human Emperor had decided on his own? This matter was directly resolved without much discussion before Grand Assembly, and just by looking at Shen Muqing's expression, one could guess what this guy was thinking.
He could not help but smile and said, "About Prince of Ning, that was also Prince of Han and Prince of Sung's suggestion to Zhen. They never discussed it, so it can be considered a surprise to you. It seems pretty good now!"
Shen Muqing was a little touched as he said, "Thank you, royal father!"
The crowd knew that this matter could be settled easily, so they prostrated themselves on the ground, "Your Majesty is wise!"
What about them? They had no choice, especially those officials of the Ministry of Rites who were stunned. Logically speaking, this matter should be discussed by them, but right now, the Human Emperor was simply ignoring them.
In fact, there was such a trend in Grand Assembly last time. As Zhao Kuangyin's close servant, Wang Anshi had already proposed to confer the title of Prince of Yan, but was stopped by Ji Chang.
However, Ji Chang also said one thing, and that was to choose a word from the sixteen Swallow Cloud Prefectures to give Shen Muqing a title.
In fact, the Ministry of Rites was not without discussion because Ninth Prince was involved. As a prince, how could they dare to neglect him? Especially when every word in the sixteen prefectures was filtered out word by word to see how the ancient texts recorded it.
Now that he heard his reputation, it was great. Their hard work had been in vain. Their father had already decided on this matter, but he could not complain about it. He could only say that this was the Emperor's thoughts.
Liu Che and Zhao Kuangyin smiled faintly as they glanced at the other princes. After all, as princes, each of their actions had a deeper meaning.
In fact, looking at the Human Emperor was a surprise for Shen Muqing, but it was also another signal that Prince of Han and Prince of Sung's relationship was secretly closer than the Human Emperor. The competition between the princes for the position of the King was not only due to Shen Muqing's contribution, but also to the fact that you could actually obtain the Sacred Heart!
If he really did obtain the Sacred Heart, then the credit would be small, but he would still be able to fight for that position. It had to be known that China had existed for so long, which generation of emperor hadn't been able to become the true ruler of the world due to the likes of the previous generation!
Even if it was an unparalleled credit, it would still not be enough to make it to that position, so the Sacred Heart was the most important!
Yang Guang and the rest naturally understood the meaning behind his words. They all had gloomy expressions and the atmosphere in the hall became awkward.
Zhangsun Wuji was also in the court right now. He thought to himself, "As expected, every time this Ninth Prince returns to the court, it will cause a huge disturbance!"
Of course, he wasn't the only one with such thoughts. Many people did, Shen Muqing didn't have many such thoughts in court!
Ever since Shen Muqing was conferred the title of Prince of Sword, he could count the number of times he had attended the court with a single slap. It felt like it was only four times.
Of course, this time, the Grand Assembly was not only given to Shen Muqing as Prince of Ning, but it was also given to the troop.
