Chapter 3 A Marquis of Hangu who is in his life!

"Father, although my Great Zhou has no strength to shock the princes, I am nominally the lord of the princes. The heroes dare not proclaim themselves as kings! Otherwise, Qin would likely directly seize Hangu Pass instead of secretly causing trouble!"

Seeing that what he said was so anxious, Ji Chao bowed and said again.

"Continue talking!"

Emperor Ji Gui thought about something.

What Ji Chao said is correct. At present, all the princes still use the titles given by the Zhou kings of all dynasties, and no one dares to call themselves kings alone!

"Father, although the fourth brother has no time or no visitors, he is the member of my Zhou royal family after all! If the royal family suddenly dies at Hangu Pass, what do other princes think?

My son thought that the person who was most worried about whether the fourth brother was sick should be the lord of Qin, not us!”

Ji Chao turned around and looked at the old minister again.

The Zhou Dynasty was born for hundreds of years, and so far, no princes dared to attack the royal family on the surface.

Once the action is taken, other vassal states will use this as a reason to fight for fiefs.

"Let me think about it!"

On the throne, Ji Gui pondered for a moment,

After about half a stick of incense sticks, I finally made a decision.

"Okay, then according to the second prince, I will confer Ji Nan as the Marquis of Hangu, and a land of a hundred miles acres within a radius of Hangu Pass as his fief! Issue tomorrow!"

"Hangu Marquis?"

After hearing the emperor's imperial edict, the civil and military ministers in the palace whispered again, and even the second prince Ji Chao and the third prince Ji Meng showed surprise on their faces.

During the Great Zhou Dynasty,

There are five ranks in total, including Duke, Marquis, Bozinan, and the second most rank of Marquis, and the title is not low.

But then I thought that the emperor's arrangement was reasonable.

The lord of Qin was the throne of Duke of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If he had granted a lower title, Qin would not take it seriously at all.

Of course, what is more important is that Ji Nan's life is not long, and everything is free to seal it.

"Yes, Father!"

"Yes, your Majesty!"

After returning to his senses, Ji Chao and the ministers bowed again and said yes.

When the ministers scattered, it was already past the middle of the day.

The thunderstorm stopped, and outside the palace, an old minister followed closely behind the third prince Ji Meng, with a serious expression.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince is making a big splash in the court today, which may be detrimental to us!"

After a moment, he saw that no other ministers were following him and spoke.

"Ji Chao is just being clever again, it's not worth mentioning, but his father has quite a few tricks."

Hearing this, Ji Meng's face was full of disdain.

"The fourth brother is weak and sickly. Due to its special terrain, there are not many people in the Hangu Pass. All the supplies and support were supported by Zhou Du. Now that Zhou Du has no supplies, if you go there with the ability of the fourth brother, you will definitely die if you don't have three months left!

But the father took advantage of the situation and got rid of the big burden of supplying Hangu Pass, not only did he say that he also had a problem for Qin Di in disguise."

"So... it's because the old minister has thought too much."

Hearing Ji Meng's analysis, the old minister suddenly showed a sudden look of enlightenment.

Ginger is still the best, and the emperor is the emperor after all.

"These are all trivial matters. The guest of the mansion received a secret letter saying that Mr. Guigu, who was practicing in Yunmen Mountain, had recently come down the mountain to Zhoudu!"

Waving his hand and stopping, Ji Meng looked at the old minister.

"Ah? Mr. Guigu from Yunmeng Mountain came to Zhoudu?"

The old minister was shocked in an instant.

"That's right, some people speculate that Mr. Guigu may be looking for a wise master when he goes down the mountain this time. If we can bring Mr. Guigu into the mansion as a disciple, how can Ji Chao compete with me for the position of emperor? I'm afraid even the father will give me three points at that time!"

Ji Meng turned around and looked at the direction of the palace.

"Your Highness, it is said that Mr. Guigu's cultivation has broken through to the Nascent Soul and reached a deeper level... But few outsiders know about his appearance, so it may be difficult to find it."

When he came back to his senses, the old minister hurriedly said.

"That's why you have to send more people to search in secret. Of course, if Mr. Guigu is really looking for a wise master, he may also take the initiative to come to my mansion. After all, there are only two princes in Zhoudu!"

A hint of cruelty flashed in Ji Meng's eyes.

Any other matter can be given to the second prince Ji Chao to show off, but this one cannot.

"Your Highness! The old minister will also keep an eye on the second prince's mansion while sending someone to secretly visit. He will never let Mr. Guigu meet the second prince."

After following Ji Meng for many years, the old minister instantly understood what the other party meant.

"Just know!"

After swaying his sleeves, Ji Meng then stepped towards his mansion.

............

No words all night, the next day,

Maybe it's because I just came to this world or because of the system,

When Ji Nan woke up and opened the door, it was already noon. Two other men in guard costumes were already kneeling outside the door.

"The Qi Refiner Fang Gui pays homage to the lord!"

"The Qi Refiner Fang Yun pays homage to the lord!"

When the two saw Ji Nan open the door, they immediately spoke.

"you?"

When Ji Nan thought about it, he knew that these must be the two loyal subordinates who were at the peak of Qi Condensation Period rewarded by the talent system last night.

"Get up!"

"Yes! Lord."

The two of them then stood up.

In other princes or princes, they would have been shocked to see this scene.

Qi Refiners at the peak of Qi Condensation Period were one step away from being able to advance to the Golden Pill. Such people would be regarded as guests of honor wherever they went. Moreover, when they saw the lords of various princes, they would just bow slightly, not kneeling on one knee like they did.

It’s not that the princes don’t want it, but that they are not worthy at all.

"What did you say to others?"

After looking at the sky, looking at the side room where Guigu was located, Ji Nan asked.

"Lord, we claim to be your newly acquired guards, and we have seen all the servants in the mansion! And when my subordinates entered the door, they met Mr. Guigu. Mr. Guigu said we asked us to bring a message to the lord, and he was going to meet an old friend. After seeing him, he would come to meet with him!"

Fang Gui bowed and replied.

At present, the identity of the new guard has been recognized by everyone in the Nanwang Mansion.

"Oh? Mr. Guigu went to see his old friend?"

Ji Nan's expression moved.

Are there old friends from Guigu in Zhou?

who?

What is certain is that he is definitely not an unknown person.

"Your Highness..."

Just when Ji Nan planned to take these two subordinates to arrange a place for them, the old slave who was in charge of guarding the gate trotted all the way to the inner courtyard.

"Your Highness, the guards of the imperial edict have arrived. I want you to go to the front yard to receive the imperial edict!"

At this moment, Lao Nu's face was not only excited.

His name is Cai Ping.

Jiancheng of Danan Prince Mansion has been serving in it, and it can be said that he is watching Ji Nan grow up.

It was the hottest time last night to this morning. A strange old man came to the house and took the initiative to be a visitor to the Nanwang Mansion.

Immediately afterwards, two more guards took the initiative to settle in.

In less than half an hour, another imperial edict came from the palace... All signs, will the Southern Palace really be lucky?

How could he not be excited?

Especially the imperial decree of the palace, it has been more than ten years, and it is really the first time!
