After Zhao Jin received some concern from Zhao Ganhao, the other party finally brought up the main issue of his visit to Beijing - the quelling of the rebellion of King Liang.
Zhao Qian looked at Zhao Jin with admiration in his eyes, "Whether it's the battle in Beili, Zhao Yi's rebellion, or the explosives, he did a good job!"
Zhao Jin's shoulder was patted twice by Zhao Qian.
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
Seeing that Zhao Jin was not proud of this, but looked unfazed by the favor and humiliation, Zhao Qian was even more relieved!
As expected of him, Zhao Qian’s son!
"Zhao Jin," Zhao Qianchao took two steps back and looked at Zhao Jin, "Listen to the order."
Zhao Jin immediately knelt down and bowed his head.
The old eunuch who had been behind Zhao Qian stood up, holding an imperial edict in his hand, "The emperor is entrusted by heaven, and the edict says: There is Zhao Jin, the governor of Yunzhou County... Therefore, he is named the founding Marquis of Xuanping, and is given a Marquis Mansion located in Anxingfang. He also serves as the minister of the Ministry of War and will join the Ministry of War in three days."
"Your Majesty, take the edict." Zhao Jin stood up again after receiving the edict.
Zhao Jin was not surprised that Zhao Qian would make him a marquis.
He is a prince himself, even if King Liang rebels and has been captured,
If Zhao Gan didn't want to be criticized, he should be given a knighthood.
However, being canonized as the founding lord was something Zhao Jin never expected.
Any title with the word "founding the country" attached to it means that it is the most noble among the same titles.
And this "Xuanping" should be the name of the fiefdom, but I don't know where the fiefdom is.
Zhao Jin originally thought that the interview should be almost over, but unexpectedly Zhao Qian kept him here again and talked for a long time about common family matters.
Zhao Qian waited until it was getting late before letting Zhao Jin out of the palace.
"I'll ask someone to take you to see the mansion."
Zhao Qian turned his head towards the old eunuch and said, "Shou Quan."
The old eunuch walked out quickly, "Your Majesty."
"Take Marquis Xuanping to have a look."
When Zhao Jin arrived at the mansion in Anxingfang, he found that the mansion was too big.
They walked around for more than three hours before they finally finished visiting the mansion.
"Master Hou, what do you think of this mansion?" Shou Quan said with a smile on his face.
He had seen His Majesty's attitude towards the newly minted Marquis Xuan Ping just now.
Which minister can be so loved and taken care of by His Majesty? Not to mention ministers, there are not many princes who can be treated like this by Your Majesty.
I am afraid that this person will become a popular person in front of His Majesty in the future!
Zhao Jin smiled and said, "Very good."
"Then, when will the Marquis move in? I can ask the palace guards to come over to help, and hire maids and attendants."
Shouquan bent down slightly and said, "If you need anything, Lord Marquis, you don't have to be polite, just give me your orders!"
Zhao Jin's eyebrows twitched, and he shook his head and refused, "No."
Even though Zhao Qian was treating him very well at this time, Zhao Jin could not completely trust Zhao Qian.
Although Shouguan was so attentive because of Zhao Qian's preferential treatment, there was no guarantee that this was Zhao Qian's order, and he wanted to use this to place people among the attendants and maids.
Seeing this, Shouquan didn't force himself, he still smiled and said: "That's okay, if you need it, Lord Marquis, just tell me."
"Thank you very much, father-in-law."
"Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!" Shou Quan was a little surprised and waved his hands repeatedly.
The next day, Zhao Jin and everyone moved their things to the mansion given by Zhao Qian and arranged for maids and attendants.
It takes a whole day to be so busy.
So much so that Zhao Jin didn't notice that the news that he was named the Founding Marquis of Xuanping immediately caused an uproar in Bianzhou!
In the early days, the powerful courtiers in Bianzhou already knew that Zhao Jin, the eldest prince of King Liang and the one who put down the rebellion of King Liang, was about to go to Bianzhou.
The position he originally held as the governor of Yunzhou County has been taken by someone else.
Although the eunuch personally brought him to Bianzhou and had made great contributions in the past, he must have come here for a reward.
But everyone originally thought that His Majesty would give Zhao Jin a sinecure, or that he would have a title but no real power.
Although Zhao Jin has made great contributions, he is the son of Prince Liang, and His Majesty hates Prince Liang extremely.
Therefore, Zhao Jin will inevitably be implicated.
Just like this, everyone knew that the explosives proposed by Zhao Jin were very powerful, but they did not pay too much attention to Zhao Jin's visit to Bianzhou.
Who would have thought that His Majesty not only made Zhao Jin the founding prince and set his fiefdom in Bianzhou, but also appointed him as the Minister of War!
This is real power!
Although the founding lord with real power could not walk sideways in Bianzhou, everyone still had to save face and did not dare to provoke him easily.
It was another day. Zhao Jin had a busy day yesterday. Today he got up and just relaxed his muscles and bones when he heard someone asking for a visit.
Zhao Jin frowned slightly, stood up and walked towards the door, "Can you tell me who it is?"
"He is the butler of the Minister of Rites." The old butler who Zhao Jin bought back yesterday said cautiously.
The attendants and maids in Xuanpinghou's mansion are all slaves and have signed contracts.
Zhao Jin doesn't have to worry too much that they will betray the master's family, at least they are much safer than those hired from outside.
"The Minister of Rites?" Zhao Jin looked a little confused. He shouldn't know the Minister of Rites?
When Zhao Jin came to the door, a middle-aged man was waiting at the door, with several nursing homes standing behind him and several mahogany boxes at his feet.
As soon as he saw Zhao Jin, the middle-aged man stepped forward to greet him.
"Master Marquis, why did the Marquis come out in person? It's enough to ask the housekeeper to come out."
The middle-aged man's expression was a little frightened.
Marquis Xuanping came out to greet him personally, so it should be his family who came to greet him.
The middle-aged man was afraid that Zhao Jin would be angry because of this, so instead of making a good relationship, he made an enemy.
"No problem." Zhao Jin glanced at the people behind the middle-aged man and the mahogany box on the ground, and finally landed on the middle-aged man.
"I wonder what happened to you?"
When business was brought up, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "The common people are here to give congratulatory gifts to Lord Marquis on your orders."
Congratulatory gift?
Zhao Jin understood.
This was after receiving the news that he was made a marquis, and knowing that he would have to stay in Bianzhou afterwards, so he came here specifically to test or show his goodwill.
"In this case, I would like to thank you, Lord Shangshu." The middle-aged man from Zhao Jinchao made a false bow.
"Your Majesty, your words are serious, your words are serious!"
The gift sent by the Minister of Rites seems to be just the beginning.
For the next whole day, Zhao Jin was either receiving guests or accepting gifts.
The warehouse in the Hou Mansion was already half filled in just one day!
In the evening, the old housekeeper handed over a booklet and said, "Master Marquis, these are all the gifts I received today."
Zhao Jin opened it and took a look, it was a thick book.
He rubbed his brows with a headache and said, "Go to the warehouse tomorrow to pay some money and give each family on the list a gift in return."
"Also, I will go to Bachelor Ning's place tomorrow."
"yes."
