So how could he endure it.

He immediately followed his prospective father-in-law out to oppose.

What made Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun’s face turn cold was that Grand Marshal Sang Gong, Grand Tutor Song Yucheng, Minister of the Supreme Court Gao Sheng, Baili Yan, head of the Baili family and Minister of Works, Left Censor-in-Chief Sheng Hong, and other court officials, one and all, many stepped out to oppose.

As for the Four Princes and Eight Dukes faction, they were even more clear-cut, all stepping out to oppose.

Jia Hui had nothing to do with them.

Even because of Jia Zhen.

They were extremely disgusted with Jia Hui and naturally did not want to see him rise!

Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun on the dragon throne was a bit angry, but he said calmly on the surface: "Shouldn't such a miraculous feat be heavily rewarded?"

[18] (5) Jia Zhen’s impotent rage! Mobile Corps Commander! Granted a title!

"The front lines are frequently reporting emergencies, and defeats are constant. It is a rare great victory, and I also believe it should be heavily rewarded to boost military morale."

At this time, Prince Yu Li Li Li Jinghuan stepped out again.

Prince Yu Li Li Li Jinghuan did not know Jia Hui.

But he had two purposes for speaking.

First, he saw Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun’s intention and wanted to please him!

Second, it was to win over Jia Hui.

He did not care about justice, governing the country, or the welfare of the people; he only knew how to scheme against each other and use strange and treacherous power balances to achieve the goal of seizing the throne.

Li Li Li Jinghuan’s stance made Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun feel imperceptibly satisfied.

Crown Prince Li Jingxuan’s mother was Imperial Consort Yue, who was extremely favored in the harem, even surpassing the current Empress Yan, so the Crown Prince was equally fearless. To protect his position as heir, he would stop at nothing and viewed Prince Yu as a thorn in his side.

Seeing that the ministers standing on his side were all opposing, and Li Li Li Jinghuan was supporting Jia Hui.

He also stepped out.

But to oppose!

"Imperial Father, I think it is unreasonable. Although this Jia Hui has established some merits and should be rewarded, he should not be rewarded too heavily."

At this time!

The seventh Imperial Prince, Prince Jing Li Li Li Jingyan, also stepped out to oppose!

Li Li Li Jingyan was firm, brave, and full of righteousness.

He was one of the only two princes in the court who was knowledgeable about military affairs and had accumulated many military merits and contributed to guarding the border!

He believed that Jia Hui indeed had merits and should be rewarded.

But he believed.

At most, he should be granted "a lower-ranking Regional Military Commissioner, or a Garrison Commander in charge of a thousand soldiers!"

Don't underestimate the dispute over just one or two ranks.

How many years of hard work and bloody battles did it take for every rank to be earned by court officials?

It took years of seniority to grind it out.

In fact, the vast majority of people were stuck at one level for their whole lives and couldn't advance an inch until they died!

Just as Prince Jing Li Li Li Jingyan finished speaking, the eighth Imperial Prince, Prince Cao Li Li Li Yanbin, also stepped out, but chose to stand on the side of Prince Yu Li Li Li Jinghuan: "Your son believes that although the words of the Crown Prince and the seventh younger brother are reasonable, now is not a normal time, and he should be heavily rewarded to inspire military morale and public sentiment!"

Thus.

Crown Prince Li Jingxuan and the seventh prince Prince Jing Li Li Li Jingyan opposed.

Prince Yu Li Li Li Jinghuan and Prince Cao Li Li Li Yanbin supported heavily rewarding Jia Hui.

The remaining Prince Jin Li Li Li Shenxing hesitated and kept his mouth shut.

The court was divided into three groups.

One group was neutral, neither opposing nor supporting, and was a minority.

The largest number were those who opposed.

Next were those who supported.

They argued for more than ten minutes.

Everyone gradually calmed down.

And looked at Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun!

Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun’s thoughts were hard to guess.

Finally, Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun said: "All you ministers have reasonable points. This Jia Hui should be rewarded, heavily rewarded, but not too heavily. Since that is the case, let him be a Mobile Corps Commander, and grant him the title of First-class General Serving the State and First-class Cloud Cavalry Captain."

Regarding this, the courtiers had different reactions.

How should I put it.

A Mobile Corps Commander is the fourth-tier general after the Regional Commander, Deputy Regional Commander, and Assistant Regional Commander.

"Mobile Corps Commander" as a military position cannot be simply defined by rank.

The original intention of setting it up was to allow a mid-level general to lead a certain number of troops to patrol and guard the main army on the periphery.

In the early years of Great Great Great Qian, Mobile Corps Commanders, Love Love Like Regional Commanders and Assistant Regional Commanders, were all temporary positions, and there was no subordinate relationship between them, nor were there fixed corresponding ranks.

By now.

These originally temporary military positions had solidified, and the Mobile Corps Commander became a third-rank military position.

Many officials still felt it was too high.

However, military generals were inherently "shorter" than civil officials.

A third-rank military position.

At most, it could be compared to a fourth-rank civil official.

Not even as good as a fourth-rank official.

It belonged to mid-to-high-level officials.

Some people felt it was acceptable.

The seventh prince Prince Jing Li Li Li Jingyan originally thought this position was reasonable.

It counted as a heavy reward.

And it wasn't outrageously high.

After all, he had already been promoted several ranks!

Therefore, Prince Jing Li Li Li Jingyan immediately stepped out to agree!

And the others, seeing that Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun had already decided, did not want to offend him by opposing further.

So most of the courtiers seconded the motion.

Others, even if they were unwilling or unhappy, did not dare to speak out in opposition again.

"This Jia Hui actually managed to become a Mobile Corps Commander, and was also granted the third-rank military title of First-class General Serving the State and First-class Cloud Cavalry Captain; it is truly annoying."

Regarding this.

Niu Niu Niu Jizong, the grandson of Duke Zhenguo Niu Qing, and Liu Fang, the grandson of Duke Liguo Liu Biao, were all very unhappy.

Indignant and restless.

After all, some of them were only at this level!

Jia Hui had reached the sky in one step!

Although unhappy.

They were helpless!

"He got lucky, it was probably a sneak attack. Hmph, he definitely won't have such good luck in the future; maybe he'll die on the battlefield before long." Liu Fang thought in a low, hateful, and incredibly frustrated voice.

After all, his own clansman was targeting Jia Hui.

He had offended Jia Hui to death!

Except for the Jia family.

He was the person in the whole court who hated Jia Hui the most and couldn't bear to see him do well!

However, Love Love Like Chen Ji and the others.

No matter how frustrated, he had to endure it!

And endure it again and again!
