Now that the king is named, it is very simple as to what kind of king he is.

However, for Li Jia, it is crucial to decide which king to confer.

When dynasties were established in ancient times, there were all kinds of strange names, but there were only three mainstream ones.

One is a name based on the region of origin. For example, the chief of the Xia tribe founded the country and took Xia as the country's name; the Zhou chief Ji Fa (i.e. King Wu of Zhou) destroyed the Shang Dynasty and established the country and took Zhou as the country's name; the ancestor of Qin was named Ying because of his merits in raising horses.

He was granted the title of Qin by Zhou and took Qin as his country name.

Before Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty, proclaimed himself emperor, he served as the military envoy to Songzhou (now Shangqiu, Henan Province) for the German army in the Later Zhou Dynasty. Because this place originally belonged to the ancient Song Dynasty, the country was named Song Dynasty.

The second type comes from the title of nobility.

For example, Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, was named the King of Han by Xiang Yu, and the fiefdom was in Hanzhong. After the world was pacified, he took "Han" as his country name; Chen Baxian, the founder of the Chen Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty, was named King Chen at the end of Nanliang, and he also took Chen as his country name when he founded the country (

Chen took King Chen as his country name instead of his surname Chen).

The third type is based on the place of origin, such as "Qian Yan" and "Later Yan" centered on Yan, "Yang Wu" in the south, and "Shu" before and after. They are all ancient feudal states with a long history.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang occupied the south in later generations, he would have to be called King of Wu first.

Others, such as following the prophecy (the Southern Dynasty Qi's "golden sword and sharp blade cut them together, now it is appropriate to call them Qi", the Yuan Dynasty's "Great Qianyuan"), respecting the inheritance (the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Later Zhou Dynasty, etc., all admired the Zhou Dynasty for its long-lasting country)

), etc., are all serious.

Everyone in the dynasties knows that Governor Li has been building momentum to claim that he is a descendant of Li and Tang since he occupied Panyu. There are traces to follow, and everyone recognizes it.

Now that the king's title has been discussed, everyone's eyes instantly turned to the old and comfortable Governor Li, hoping to get a positive answer.

However, everyone already has the answer in their mind, and it is nothing more than the word "Tang".

Even Liu Yuan, who was sitting high on the dragon throne, had already known this and looked at Governor Li frequently, hoping to get a reply.

Prime Minister Zhong Yunzhang, Second Minister Cui Quan, and Zhang Cong had already known what was going on, and they looked so confident that everyone in the court was confused for a moment.

"The Governor's merits are unparalleled and he single-handedly supports the imperial court. If it is not a great country, it cannot show its merits, and if it is not an auspicious title, it cannot express its merits. I would like to use 'Xue' as the king's title——"

The person who stood up to play was Sun Zhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, who was the first to seek refuge with Li Jia after he entered Panyu. His remarks generally represented the Governor's Mansion. As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.

No matter how unexpected he was, he was not the king of Tang, not even the famous kings of Qin, Qi, Zhao, etc., but a small "King Xue", which was absolutely beyond everyone's expectation.

Even Pan Chongche, who swallowed a mouthful of old blood, was shocked. He looked at the young Governor Li again. Was he really a loyal minister?

No, this is an illusion. A truly loyal minister will not ask for the title of king.

Pan Chongche stared intently at the calm-looking Governor Li, his eyes like two hooks aimed at Li Jia.

"King Xue? There's quite a lot of background here..." Zhong Yunzhang glanced at Governor Li in confusion. After thinking for a moment, he understood the whole story.

The ancestor of Li Jia was Li Ye, King of Xue, the fifth son of Ruizong and the younger brother of Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. It can be said that King Xue was of great significance.

Anyone who has succeeded King Xue and is a little educated will naturally think of Li Zhirou, the military governor of Jiedu decades ago. By extension, the clan of the Tang Dynasty came out.

As for why he didn't choose to be called the King of Tang, the main reason was that it was too obvious. The Southern Tang Dynasty was still in the north. Although he was beaten to pieces by Guo Rong, it was still a giant to Lingnan.

It's better to be cautious.

The three prime ministers looked at each other, understood, smiled, and said nothing.

"This, the position of King Xue is a bit unsuitable!" Liu Yuan looked at Governor Li and asked carefully, fearing that he would kill him if he was dissatisfied.

"Thunder and rain are all your kindness, but in the position of King Xue, I really can't bear it——"

Li Jia shook his head and quickly waved his hand to refuse.

Is it okay to refuse the king's title? The courtiers were not allowed to do so and hurriedly persuaded him. The three prime ministers came in order and persuaded him one by one.

If the Governor has great merits, he will not be rewarded unless he is the king, and the Governor will not accept it. It will chill the hearts of the meritorious officials in the world, and all the people in the world hope that the Governor will be the king...

Wait, Li Jia came and refused and gave in three times. Finally, Emperor Liu Yun also joined in:

"The governor is the king, and he is the official of all officials. As for my sincerity, I cannot refuse you!"

This sentence was said with sincerity and tears in his eyes. If Li Jia refused again, he would become a sinner in the world.

"I deserve it..." Li Jia wiped away his tears, waved his sleeves and said with great sadness.

Then, out of nowhere, a group of palace maids and eunuchs suddenly appeared in the palace and helped Governor Li down. After waiting for a while, Li Jia, wearing royal robes, came to the palace in plain sight.

"I will see His Royal Highness King Xue——" The ministers counted themselves one by one, and all the civil and military officials bowed down. Even Pan Chongche couldn't resist the trend and bowed down.

Liu Yuan, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, had mixed feelings. Affected by this, he also wanted to bow down. Fortunately, the eunuch beside him had quick eyesight and quick hands to hold him back, otherwise it would really have become a joke.

Soon, what happened in the palace was reported to the governor's mansion. Under the arrangement of An Guo, the servants in the mansion removed the plaque and cleaned it inside and out.

As for the door sills, there is no need to change them. They were originally modified by the palace, which saves a lot of effort.

Hou Liniang was mending robes for Governor Li in her courtyard. It was winter, and having more fur robes would make the Governor remember her more.

As for his son Li Heiniu, under the care of his teacher, he was shaking his head and reading.

"Madam, it's a big deal. An imperial envoy came to the house and made Mr. Lang king!" the little maid quickly entered the courtyard and said loudly.

"Really?" Hou Liniang said in surprise.

"Is there still a day off? The official asked you to change your clothes and get ready to receive the order!"

For a moment, Hou Liniang was full of surprise and burst into tears, "Go, inform Hei Niu and ask him to come and receive the order..."

On the other side, Jiang Xiaoyu, who has been worrying about the mansion's account books, is naturally more knowledgeable than Hou Liniang who lives at home. After getting the news, she arranged the arrangements calmly. This time she changed into bright clothes, put on a gold hairpin bracelet, and prepared

Welcome the imperial edict.

Even though she had been prepared for a long time, she never thought it would be so fast. Jiang Xiaoyu's heartbeat was fast and her cheeks were red. From today on, she is the king's woman, and before she was just a girl from the Dan family...

For a moment, she was a little crazy.

A few days after entering the Governor's Mansion, Wu Jin'er had just settled down when he heard the news that Li Jiafeng was crowned king, and he was instantly overjoyed:
Chapter completed!
