Chapter 188 The court meeting ends

After giving extremely generous rewards to Gongsun Qi, Pang Juan and Gongshu Cuo, three important officials with great achievements, Wei Feng's voice in the hall did not stop there.

In the next period of time, Wei Feng's eyes frequently looked at the figures below.

Among these people there are not only civil servants like Wang Cuo and Duan Qianjie, but also military generals like Long Jia and Gongsun Cuo.

It can be said that in today's court meeting held specifically to celebrate the victory, Wei Feng, as the Marquis of Wei, perfectly demonstrated his generous image to the courtiers below.

Wei Feng never begrudges money, official positions, and even land rewards to courtiers and generals who have made meritorious service in this battle.

Under this behavior, which was more generous than that of some tycoons in some Middle Eastern countries in later generations, the faces of the courtiers below who had received rewards showed expressions of satisfaction.

After finishing all this, Wei Feng slowly returned to his throne, and his eyes swept over the faces of the courtiers below.

When he took in the smiling faces, he heard Wei Feng say with a smile on his face: "My lords, I wonder if I can break my promise? Can the promise I made before the war be fulfilled today?"

"Your Majesty, I am very excited to receive such a generous reward today."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely bear in mind Your Majesty's trust today, and I will work even harder in handling affairs in the future." The person who stood up to speak at this moment was none other than Wang Cuo, who had just been promoted to the rank of Lord.

At the same time that Wang Cuo, the Shangqing, finished speaking, another figure came to his side from below. It was Duan Qianjie, who had been promoted to Xiaqing due to his merit.

Bowing to Wei Feng, he heard him continue: "What the Lord said is very reasonable. If I and others can be more dedicated, then my country, Wei, will be more prosperous."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never forget your generous gift today, and I will add my share of strength to the prosperity of our Wei State."

Listening to the words of Wang Cuo and Duan Qianjie who stood below, Wei Feng's eyes flashed with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has finished telling me what I want to say, so I will look at your performance in the future."

Not long after Wei Feng said these words, a chorus of responses came from below.

"I will definitely live up to your Majesty's trust."

After talking about the rewards given by the courtiers present, Wei Feng's attention turned to another matter.

"This time Qin and Qi launched offensives against our Wei State from the west and east respectively. If there were not nearly 200,000 soldiers fighting bloody battles on these two fronts, how could our Wei State have achieved victory?

Final victory?"

While speaking, Wei Feng's eyes turned to the Sima in charge of Wei's military affairs below, that is, Anyang Jun Gongsun Qi sitting in front of the ministers.

"Anyang Jun, I wonder if you have any plans in mind regarding the rewards for the soldiers who participated in this battle?"

Facing Wei Feng's question about rewards for soldiers who participated in the war, Gongsun Qi slowly came to Wei Feng after thinking about it for a while.

"Your Majesty, since Prime Minister Li Kui was in charge of the Wei State during the reign of Marquis Wen, and Commander Wu Qi was in charge of military affairs during the reign of Marquis Wu, we in the Wei army have established a certain practice of rewarding meritorious service."

"In fact, after the war, the statistics of combat achievements among the various armies were already being carried out in an orderly manner, but the counting has not been completed yet because of the large number of people."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely do this well and live up to the expectations of all the officers and men in the army, and to live up to Your Majesty's trust."

After hearing what Gongsun Qi said, a smile appeared in Wei Feng's eyes. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with this matter.

However, although Gongsun Qi had already made a statement, the expression on Wei Feng's face immediately turned serious.

"This matter is of great importance. Please take your time, Mr. Anyang. If you have any difficulties, you can report them to me and I will try my best to solve them."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will do my best."

After temporarily arranging the last thing for today, Wei Feng smiled and said to the courtiers below: "Today all the ministers have received rewards, and I guess some of them are ready to have a drink with their friends, so I won't bother you.

Your Majesty’s interest is high.”

"We will come here for today's court meeting and retreat."

"I will respectfully see you off."

After saying these words, under the respectful greetings of the courtiers below, Wei Feng walked out with steps that were a little more brisk than before.

Seeing Wei Feng's figure disappear, a group of Wei courtiers who participated in the meeting also left the hall in twos and threes.

After a few breaths, he was walking on the wide avenue of the Wei Palace. As the burly and majestic imperial guards passed by him, Gongsun Qi still had a few smiles on his face.

People are in high spirits when happy events happen, not to mention that Gongsun Qi was still named Lord Anyang by Wei Feng today. How could his heart not be filled with joy for such a big happy event?

Just when Gongsun Qi was smiling and walking towards the palace door, an old voice came from behind him.

"Anyang Jun, stop."

The forward steps under his feet paused slightly. Looking at the figure appearing behind him, a look of respect slowly emerged in Gongsun Qi's eyes.

After returning a few steps and arriving in front of the other party, Gongsun Qi bowed and said, "I have met the Prime Minister."

That's right, the person who stopped Gongsun Qi at this moment was none other than Gongshu Cuo, who had previously chosen to resign.

"Anyang Jun has betrayed me. Your Majesty has agreed to my request to resign. I am no longer the Prime Minister."

"The Prime Minister's words are wrong."

Gongsun Qi didn't take Gongshu Cuo's denial to heart, but his words were even more respectful.

"As your Majesty said, I have served as Prime Minister for decades, and it can be said that I have made great contributions to our Wei State."

"Besides, Your Majesty also said that after the Prime Minister resigns, all courtesy will remain the same as before, so it is not bad for me to call you Prime Minister."

Facing Gongsun Qi's words, although Gongshu Cuo still had the same smile on his face, he felt moved again.

In fact, Gongshu Cuo had been a little worried before. He was not worried about anything else, but he was worried that someone would be sad after he went to the photo shoot.

Now, first, Wei Feng, who was the Marquis of Wei, gave him the courtesy of Bi Zhaoguo, and then Gongsun Qi's respectful words, the worry in Gongshu Cuo's heart had mostly dissipated.

The smile on his face became even brighter, and I heard Gongshu Cuo say to Gongsun Qi: "In my opinion, in terms of talents in the court today, Anyang Jun is the well-deserved number one."

"First he assisted the king and allied with the three Jin Dynasties, and then he helped the Wei State defeat Qi Qin. The talents of Anyangjun were fully revealed in these two major events."

"Being able to be crowned the king today is partly due to your trust in the king, but there is no doubt about Anyang Jun's own talent."

After hearing Gongshu Cuo's unabashed praise, Gongsun Qi immediately responded with some humility: "The Prime Minister has given you too much praise. I can't be where I am today without the trust of you and the trust of the Prime Minister."

Teaching.”

"In the future, I will inevitably have things I don't understand. If you come to ask for advice, I hope that the Prime Minister will not hesitate to give you advice."
