"Shen Wan, the daughter of the Shen family, served in escort last night. I will reward her for her merits. I will make Shen Wan the lord of Anping County and enjoy the title of the second-grade county lord. She will also be given a palace in the middle of the capital and a thousand taels of gold!"
Xiao Lingyue was stunned and stunned: "..."
Emperor Zhaoming's oral edict had not yet been finished: "Shen Wan, the lord of Anping County, saved Prince Yi's son last night. He will be given a palace card, which allows him to enter and exit the palace freely. After returning to the capital, he can enter the palace storehouse and choose his own reward."
This is what Emperor Zhaoming agreed to at the beginning, letting her enter the palace to select medicinal materials for Beibei.
Only then did Xiao Lingyue react and raised her head in shock.
Made her the county head? Also gave her a title?
this......
This reward is a bit too big!
Xiao Lingyue was completely unprepared and was unable to react in time.
In ancient times, women had almost no possibility of obtaining a title, except that the wife was honored by her husband and followed her husband's official position and received a title.
Those who can be knighted are basically royal daughters.
For example, princess and princess are not just titles, they are titles exclusive to royal daughters. They do not need to do anything and can receive a salary every year to eat, drink and have fun.
According to the hierarchy of the Northern Qin Dynasty, the princess is of the first rank and the princess is of the first rank.
And below the county lord is the county lord.
Generally, only the daughter of the princess or the granddaughter of the direct prince can be granted the title.
Ordinary county lords have a title of second grade, but after adding a title, they become a full second grade noble.
What is this concept?
It is equivalent to Xiao Lingyue being directly promoted from an ordinary citizen to the aristocratic class at once, and his status is equivalent to that of a second-rank official in the court.
The Nanyang Marquis Mansion and the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion were originally first-class nobility.
They are the only two families in the capital.
After the Shen family was deprived of their title, Zhenbei Marquis Mansion became the only first-grade marquis mansion, and its status became even more transcendent.
Even the Xiao family, which has great power and military power, has not yet truly obtained a title.
And now, Emperor Zhaoming directly made Xiao Lingyue the second-rank county lord as soon as he came up. Based on this alone, in addition to the royal princess and the princess, Xiao Lingyue's status can already kill all the noble ladies in the capital!
More importantly, this title was only given to her and had nothing to do with the Shen family.
Emperor Zhaoming even thoughtfully rewarded her with a palace in Beijing.
Although His Majesty did not say it clearly, the meaning of this reward was clearly to encourage her to move out of the Shen family and start her own business.
Give me a title, a house, and gold.
This was like a big pie falling from the sky, and three pieces were smashed on Xiao Lingyue's head in one go.
It almost knocked her unconscious...
Xiao Lingyue was really stunned on the spot and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Emperor Zhaoming looked at her condescendingly, with a faint smile on his majestic face. There was no deliberate embarrassment before: "After returning to Beijing, the imperial edict of the imperial seal will be sent to the Shen family. You have received the edict in advance now. Why don't you quickly accept the order and thank me?"
"..." Xiao Lingyue's throat felt a little dry.
Not to mention accepting the order to express gratitude, she now wanted to ask Emperor Zhaoming: Are you serious?
Was the title of the second rank really given to her for free?
You must know that Xiao Lingyue was in Nanyan in her last life and guarded the border for Nanyan for five years. Whether in terms of military exploits or seniority, she was enough to overwhelm most of the idle officials in the Nanyan Dynasty.
What I got in the end was just the title of a major general. Popular ""
