Chapter 1819: Ennoblement, the gold content of the Battle of Hexi!

"By the order of the Emperor, the decree says—"

"It is heard that heaven rewards diligence, and royal titles manifest merit."

"Champion Marquis Gao Yang conquered Hexi, his Great Qian soldiers bathed in blood on the battlefield, crushed the Xiongnu in Hexi, captured the strategic points of the Western Regions; such illustrious military merit should be recorded in history! I am very pleased, and specifically grant rewards to manifest loyalty and bravery—"

"Captain of the Polu, Wang Xiao, come forward to receive the reward!"

Shangguan Wan'er's cold voice rang out.

Wang Xiao was excited inside; he found it incredible that he was the first to receive the reward.

He carried his excitement and stepped forward, "The end general is here!"

Shangguan Wan'er looked at the imperial decree and spoke: "Captain of the Polu Wang Xiao followed the Champion Marquis, fearless of death, galloping thousands of miles as if entering an empty land; in the Battle of Hexi, he broke the Xiongnu King Zhenyue's city, achieved a great victory, and is ennobled as Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, with three thousand households of food, granted the seal of the Tiger-Brave General, and bestowed with the Golden-Cut Sword and Black Rhinoceros Armor!"

"Hiss!"

This reward came out, and the hundred officials were shocked.

Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, three thousand households of food, granted the position of Tiger-Brave General!

You must know that Wang Xiao was previously just a Captain of the Polu, and he was actually ennobled as a marquis directly!

A man living in the world, when strong, should be ennobled as a marquis!

This sentence made countless Great Qian men yearn for it and regard it as their lifelong pursuit!

Wang Zhong's heart was extremely complicated; on one hand, he was happy for Wang Xiao, this was ennoblement as a marquis, enough to manifest the merits of a family, how could he not be happy?

But on the other hand, he felt a great sense of unreality and that deep sense of awkwardness.

This brat was actually ennobled as a marquis in two battles?

You must know his father had fought for decades and hadn't been ennobled as a marquis; how could he mix in this?

It would be somewhat awkward to face Wang Xiao in the future!

Qin Zhenguo was also quite surprised; was this the first one to be ennobled as a marquis? Was this the beginning or the end of Wu Zhao's ennoblement?

After Wang Xiao's shock, there was endless ecstasy.

"Your subject Wang Xiao thanks Your Majesty for the holy grace!" ===== CHAPTER 1821 =====
