Chapter 86
On the other side, news of Liu Feng's successive victories also reached Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty.
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong was even more happy when he saw the memorial.
Liu Hong said to everyone:"This Liu Feng is really good.
At less than twenty years old, he can annihilate an alien army of 150,000 soldiers with a few thousand soldiers.
And his courage is commendable. He can actually do what Hou Huo Qubing, the champion of the former Han Dynasty, did Go deep into the alien royal city and kill the King of Goguryeo.
And he is still as young and promising as ever. This Liu Feng is simply my Huo Qubing."
After listening to the words of Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong, the ministers all said,"Congratulations to the emperor for acquiring such a fierce general."
After hearing what the ministers said, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was even more delighted.
He said to a group of ministers:"I am indeed right about Liu Feng.
If he can lead his troops to fight against foreign tribes a few more times and open up territories for me, I will surely be as famous as the former Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."
This fashion book made Lu Zhi say:"Your Majesty, since Liu Feng has contributed to the pacification of Goguryeo, the Emperor must reward him and encourage his enthusiasm." After Lu Zhi finished speaking, Huangfu Song also spoke:"What Lu Shangshu said makes sense. , Liu Feng will be grateful to the emperor if he is rewarded by the emperor, and he will do his best to defeat foreign enemies for the Han Dynasty."
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong also nodded in agreement after hearing what Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song said.
So Liu Hong said:"Liu Feng has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, and I will naturally reward him without hesitation.
It's just that it has been less than a month since I made him the prefect of Liaodong. It would be too hasty to promote him to another official position.
I don't know what I love about you. This suggestion can avoid being transferred and will not chill the hearts of loyal ministers?"
After hearing what Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty said, it was Lu Zhi who was the first to stand up.
I saw him saying to Liu Hong:"Since your Majesty values Liu Feng so much and reborn him as Huo Qubing, then why doesn't your Majesty make Liu Feng a marquis?"
Liu Hong's eyes lit up after hearing Lu Zhi's words.
He repeated:"Make him a marquis?
Lu Aiqing has a great idea. This title is the best reward for Liu Feng to resist the aliens.
Just why should he be made a marquis?"
Lu Zhi saw that Han Ling Emperor was hesitant again, so he spoke again:" Since Your Majesty calls Liu Feng Huo Qubing, then just grant Huo Qubing's title to Liu Feng."
After hearing Lu Zhi's words, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty finally no longer hesitated.
He ordered:"According to my decree, Liu Feng, the governor of Liaodong, has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements in resisting foreigners.
In recognition of his loyalty and bravery, Liu Feng is specially named the champion."
After Liu Hong promulgated the imperial edict, Lu Zhi took the lead, and all the officials said in unison :"Your Majesty is wise!"
Then, as soon as the imperial edict came out, the world was shocked.
Liu Feng's rise is simply too fast!
A few days ago, he was promoted from Lieutenant of Liaodong County to Governor of Liaodong Province, and now less than half a month later, he was named Champion Marquis again.
Those who know Liu Feng will be even more shocked, because a few months ago, he was just a small village chief.
Now that a few months have passed, the carp has indeed jumped over the dragon's gate.
To be granted the title of Marquis was a wish that the former flying general Li Guang never realized throughout his life.
Liu Feng was named a champion when he was only a teenager.
Although this title of Champion is not the highest title, or even a permanent title, its significance is very important in the hearts of the people of the Han Dynasty.
Because Huo Qubing, who was famous all over the world in the past, was the champion.
When Huo Qubing was seventeen, he led eight hundred cavalry deep into the desert, and when he was nineteen, he commanded the Battle of Hexi.
Every time he went on an expedition, the Huns were beaten to pieces.
Even the Huns did not dare to go south to herd horses as soon as they heard that Huo Qubing was leading the army.
Such a national hero, Liu Feng has now received the same title as him.
Even the little eunuch who delivered the order couldn't help but flatter Liu Feng when he read out the reward to Liu Feng:"If Liu Feng can meet the emperor in the future, don't forget to say a few good words for our family in front of the emperor."."
Facing the little eunuch's request, Liu Feng had no choice but to agree.
After the angel left, Taishi Ci, Dian Wei and others congratulated Liu Feng:"Congratulations, my lord, your lord will be a national hero like Huo Qubing in the future."
Although Liu Feng was happy about this, he was not complacent.
He said to Taishi Ci, Dian Wei and others:"This champion is an honor and a responsibility. From now on, we must protect the people of this area and never let any foreigners step into the territory of the Han Dynasty."
As soon as Liu Feng finished speaking, Cai Yong walked in.
When he heard Liu Feng's words, he laughed and said:"My nephew said it well.
Compared with the glory of the champion, this is indeed more of a responsibility.
My nephew was not dazzled by the glory of the champion. It is enough I see that you really care about the people, my dear nephew, and you are concerned about the country and the people."
Liu Feng did not expect Cai Yong's sudden arrival, and couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't say anything arrogant just now.
Otherwise, if the future father-in-law hears it, the impression will be compromised.
Afterwards, Liu Feng hurriedly said:"Uncle is right, Feng will definitely remember the responsibility of the champion.
Worry about the world first, and rejoice after the world is happy."
Cai Yong listened to Liu Feng's last two sentences, At first I just thought it was catchy
"Worry when the world is worried first, and rejoice when the world is happy later."
However, when Cai Yong tasted the two things carefully, he immediately felt the profound meaning.
Liu Feng not only regarded resisting the aliens as his own responsibility.
He also put the suffering of the people in the world first.
This This kind of enthusiasm for caring about the country and the people is completely reflected in these two poems.
In this regard, Cai Yong admired Liu Feng even more, not only because of Liu Feng's neither arrogant nor impetuous character, but also because of his work for the people. The feelings of thinking.
And because it can express the emotions in the heart through poetry.
As a literary master, Cai Yong couldn't help but sigh: It seems that he was right to bring Yan'er and Liu Feng together. Just these two poems This is enough to prove Liu Feng's talent and learning.
Presumably Yan'er will be happier after knowing these two poems.
In addition, Cai Yong has greater expectations for Liu Feng.
After all, with this state, Liu Feng Feng's achievements in the future will definitely not be small.
And after Han Ling personally recognized his ancestors and included them in the royal family tree, Liu Feng's status will definitely become higher and higher, leaving a strong mark in future history..
Of course, this is the thought in the mind of the great scholar Cai Yong.
For the people everywhere, they only know that the Han Dynasty has another champion.
He entered Goguryeo alone to protect the borders of the Han Dynasty.
And the people in Liaodong County, I feel even more blessed to have such a prefect.
