Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Originally, it was planned to award meritorious ministers during the Winter Solstice Festival, but because Mei Rong's contribution was too great, the Zhengshitang couldn't reach a unified opinion on his award, so it was postponed.

It's not good to be high, but this time it's not because of blood, it's because Mei Rong herself is too cruel.With the King Chu's support for him and his own ability, he might get even more credit in the future, so don't make it impossible for him to be sealed at that time.And this guy is going to be a king... Both husband and wife are kings, this is completely the rhythm of walking sideways in Daxing!

Well, the two of them are very tyrannical, they are a perfect match, and they are invincible.

It's even worse if the seal is lowered, not only because the king of Chu can't explain it, but also according to the rules and regulations, there are also hard indicators for calculating merit points after the military system reform, and they can't be vague and lowered at will.After all, based on Mei Rong's two contributions to opening up the territory, the title of king is more than enough.

Zhengshitang's hair turned gray with worry, and Emperor Deguang had no choice but to ask Mu Ci's opinion.

Mu Ci wanted to ask Mei Rong for her opinion.

Mei Rong said solemnly: "Since we can create a title of General Dinghai, is there a title of King of Chu? If so, just give me this title, won't everything be settled?"

Mu Ci: ...

Seeing Mei Rong's serious expression, Mu Ci really replied this suggestion to Emperor Deguang.

Emperor Deguang: ...

Every day there is an urge to destroy the humanity of the prospective brother-in-law, how can it be broken?Waiting online, very anxious!

……

Although the reward made everyone except Mu Ci, Meirong and his wife feel embarrassed and delayed, it was still sealed on the day of the Spring Festival celebration, which added more reasons for joy during the festive Spring Festival.Not only are the court officials beaming and proud, but the common people also feel that this year is a very enjoyable one.

King Changshan has been promoted by half a level. Although he is still a king with two words, his salary has been raised by half a level, and he has been given many additional officials such as "Zhongshuling" who have no real power and only have honor and salary. .Countless gold and silver treasures will be rewarded, and in the future, they will be offered sacrifices in the main hall.

Bai Lin, who has been suppressed all his life, has completely shaken off the influence of Princess Dingguo, and can inherit his father's title of Marquis of Yong'an at the same level without downgrading.At the same time, the general of hussars was given, his salary was increased, and some gold, silver and jewelry were given, so that he could enjoy the side sacrifice in the main hall of the hero's shrine.

There is also Mu Ruosong, the title of Beihai County King itself is from the first rank, and if it is promoted, it will surpass the son of the virtuous son, which is not in accordance with the etiquette.Moreover, when the first emperor granted him the title of county king, it was only because of the honor of the king of Chu, which was not considered his real ability, so this time he did not raise his title, but also gave him the honorary position of being the general of the auxiliary country. A number of silver jewels can be sacrificed on the side of the main hall of the Hall of Martyrs.

As for Mei Rong, this time he didn't deliberately play tricks because of his bloodline, and gave him a name outside the system, but treated him as a lucky person, and gave this brown-haired and blue-eyed guy the title of "Duke Haiguo" ", from the title of the first rank, all the salaries and benefits enjoyed are all upgraded to one level, taking the example of the heir to the king, that is, the level of the prince's son is the same.

Mei Rong accepted the award, respectfully knelt down and thanked her, put on the Duke's court clothes and came out, with a smile on her face, her expression was very normal - but is this abnormal?This newly released Hai Guogong is obviously a star who is not afraid of death, and everyone can't see his signature flying bright smile to express that they are not used to it.

This is clearly dissatisfaction.Indeed, with such a great contribution, no one would be satisfied without being crowned king.However, the masses of onlookers who didn't know the truth, although they guessed that Mei Rong was unhappy, they missed the point at all!

Untitled "King of Chu", not happy!

Mei Rong thought, it seems that her strength is not enough!Well, we have to work harder and lay down more overseas enclaves...

Emperor Deguang didn't know that he had inadvertently stimulated Mei Rong, which directly led to the crazy expansion of the Daxing Empire in the next ten years, including the tens of millions of hectares of the entire Eastern Ocean into the Daxing Map.

……

Envoys from surrounding countries were invited to celebrate the Spring Festival.The envoys who were invited to see Daxing so grandly celebrated the defeat of Xiliang, snatched the Rizhao Kingdom, and built on the pain of others, felt very depressed and felt a little hurt.But everyone looked at the King of Chu sitting on the king's chair... Even the envoys from Beirong and Xiliang who were usually the most arrogant and disturbed three points when they had nothing to do, sat down honestly and did not dare to make mistakes.

However, even if the solar term is dull, one has to admit that Daxing is a state of etiquette, no matter how rich the country is, and it is very reasonable and trustworthy.

Neighboring countries with good relations such as Thailand, Li Dynasty, Linyi and Nanzhi have all benefited, and feel that it is very wise and promising to cooperate with Daxing.And Daxing is really generous, not only never defaulted on their payment, because they honestly paid taxes for the imported goods, during the Spring Festival, Daxing treasury refunded 10% of their annual tax in one go.Although what these countries sold to Daxing were all by-products such as grain and oil, the amount was huge, and the amount of tax rebates was a fortune, which made the countries that did not start large-scale border trade with Daxing very jealous.The Gaofan envoys secretly clenched their fists, and decided to go back to the country and talk to the patriarchs, don't play tricks in the transaction, it is good to be honest.

Tuoba Yingkuo, the fifth prince of Xiliang, was also invited, and the envoys from several countries who saw the huge sum of money laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth, but they didn't feel jealous or envious.He didn't want to be tempted by such a small profit, but just looked at the plain-faced King of Chu—this tax rebate has many benefits, which not only shows the friendship and cooperation of great fortune, but also encourages all countries to do business with integrity. It must be the work of the King of Chu and courage.

He took another look at the quasi-king Mei Rong who was sitting next to the King of Chu from time to time and whispered to the King of Chu, which made Mu Ci's expression become very gentle. No matter how many good deeds he has done, the king of Chu will wholeheartedly treat them with care and protect them with all his strength in this life.

If there is no king of Chu, this "Sea God" is just a giant merchant on the sea, and he will never have the glory he has today - conferring the title of king and making great achievements.

Tuoba Yingkuo received the news that the King of Chu also asked him to lead the Sea God Army on an expedition to the East China Sea. His future achievements... should not be underestimated.

Given time, Mei Rong can really achieve supremacy!

Tuoba Yingkuo has carefully studied the King of Chu, and also Mei Rong. Although he understands that people are different, he still can't help but compare himself with himself. He is no longer young, his body is broken, his family is ruined, and his mother country is in ruins. I can't help feeling envious and jealous.

He didn't know whether to lament the untimely birth or the bad luck.Of course, he would never admit that his vision, ability, heart and courage are not as good as Mu Ci's, let alone this beard.

Because the country is strong and the people are healthy, this year's Chinese New Year is particularly lively.It was rare for the Prince of Chu's mansion to take a big holiday. Except for the guards on duty, everyone else took family leave.These days, Mei Rong clings to Mu Ci, holds her son in her arms, and delays the circumcision on the tenth day of the lunar new year on the grounds that she is not ready.

Mei Rong has been at sea for many years, and she saw the Lantern Festival once when she was young, and she always remembers the excitement and joy of her childhood.And because Mu Ci grew up in the cold palace, and fell into a coma after rescuing Meirong during the Chinese New Year last year, he recuperated in the Heqiu Palace and did not go down the mountain, so he has never seen the Lantern City.

Mu Ci is more interested in this kind of traditional festivals. On the Lantern Festival, Mei Rong held hands with Mu Ci and walked on the street openly.

The Lantern Festival is really lively, there are so many people, the guards can't squeeze it.Mu Ci and Mei Rong are not capricious people, for the safety of themselves and their loved ones, they did not pretend to be forced to squeeze into the crowd.I just strolled around Wangfu Avenue, where there are fewer people and a higher level of security, guessing lantern riddles and winning a lot of lanterns.

Like them, the clan dignitaries, who are also inconvenient to travel at such a time, are also on Wangfu Street.Mu Cimei met many acquaintances, Mou Yu led Chaoyang, the two of them held a child in each hand, and the people behind also carried a lot of lanterns.

When Wang Ziguang saw Mu Ci, he rushed over and threw himself into his arms.Mu Ci hugged him and said, "You've grown so big, you still like to act like a baby." She said so, but she didn't push him away, and even waved to Mo Shi who was beside her.

Because the "killing" was too bloody and sharp, Chaoyang, the new stepmother, discussed with Mou Yu to change the name of her adopted son, officially entering the family tree of the Mou family.

Mou Shi is still the same, with a cold face and no emotional fluctuations in his eyes, but his eyesight is much more normal, staring at people's eyes and faces instead of just staring at people's vitals like before. A young age is like a sharp sword out of its sheath, ready to drink blood.

When Mu Shi came over, Mu Ci patted his little head and said, "It also grows a lot taller." He gave him a rabbit lamp.Mou Shi took it and thanked him solemnly, and his education is getting better and better.

The two couples strolled around for a while, and saw Prince Qing and his wife again, and the person standing beside him chatting was Mu Ruosong, King of Beihai County.

Mei Rong took the lead and took Mu Ci's hand.

Mu Ruosong was following Xie Siniang, and the two of them were standing half a person apart. Seeing Mu Ci approaching, Xie Siniang subconsciously took a step back, putting distance between herself and her husband.

Mei Rong pretended she didn't find anything, and chatted with King Qing.Mu Ci seldom chatted with others, looked at Mu Ruosong and thanked Siniang and nodded.

More than once, Mu Ruosong saw Mu Ci and Meirong walking down the street holding hands, not caring about other people's eyes at all.

He couldn't help but think back to when he... didn't even dare to hold hands with Mu Ci outside.Based on this alone, he was not wronged at all.

As he grew older and experienced more, he walked out of Dingwangfu, the city and the country, shouldered heavier responsibilities, and saw a wider world.Mu Ruosong's mentality and thinking are different from before.

In fact, there is no need to give him another ten years, even if he is given two more years to grow up like this, his and Mu Ci's endings will be different.

But now, there's no point in thinking about it.The person he loves so much is already someone else's, and he has found his own happiness.

Mu Ruosong did not hide his painful and regretful expression, but no one scolded him.

Everyone has come all the way from youth, and the road to growth has never only had flowers and applause, but more trials and tribulations.

The elders who have come over will always give young people more space.

Mei Rong chatted with King Qing for a while and bid farewell, leading Mu Ci to leave.Mu Ci grabbed him, looked at Mu Ruosong and said with a pun: "I'm leaving, you grow up, find your own way, bring your own people, go forward!"

Looking at Mu Ci's tolerant and gentle eyes as always, Mu Ruosong's eyes turned red instantly.It has been more than a year, and the big stone that weighs on him all the time in his heart, engraved with betrayal, disappointment, remorse and other negative emotions, has shown signs of loosening.

Mu Ci always didn't like to be verbose, so he raised his hand with Mei Rong's intertwined fingers, waved at Mu Ruosong and Xie Siniang, and simply said, "Goodbye!"

Xie Siniang didn't dare to make a sound, she smiled and waved behind Mu Ruosong.Mu Ruosong stared for a long time at the backs of the two of them going away.It's because the eyes are blurred and I can't see clearly.

Xie Siniang didn't remind and urge her, she just waited quietly.It was as if she had been silently waiting for this man to turn around in her heart.

Mu Ruosong waited for the wind to dry the moisture in his eyes before turning back to look for Xie Siniang. Seeing that she stepped back two or three steps away from him, he knew that she was trying to avoid suspicion.

Mu Ruosong sighed in his heart, thinking of Mu Ci's temperament that he admired the most, he could let go of everything when he turned around, and moved forward gracefully.Why should I be stuck in the past forever, not only failing Mu Ci's expectations, but also failing the people around me.

And the people around him will not wait for him forever, he doesn't want to miss it again and again, and live in regret forever.

Mu Ruosong took a step forward, grabbed Xie Si Niang's hand: "Let's go, where else do you want to go?"

Xie Siniang broke free reflexively, but was held tightly by Mu Ruosong, she said in a panic, "Anywhere, it's fine."

Mu Ruosong took her hand and walked forward.

Xie Siniang walked with her for a long time before she came back to her senses. Seeing the two hands being held together for the first time, tears fell down...

On the towers of the imperial city, the night view of the entire city reflects the brilliance of the sky, like a fairyland on earth.

People's faces are filled with happy smiles, and with expectations for the new year, they each hold their most beloved people and rush to their own paths.

Not afraid of the wind and rain, all the way forward.
