"condition?"

After hearing this, everyone was stunned.

If the treatment and detoxification of Shang Zhen is successful, the royal family will naturally receive a generous reward. However, it would be too anxious to propose the reward before the royal family has spoken.

"Yes, conditions." Jin Ling said seriously, "Logically speaking, it is my honor as a subordinate to treat the king's injuries and illnesses, and it is also a great opportunity to show my loyalty to the kingdom. However, you all know

, my surname is Jin, and in the Shang dynasty, everyone knows what the surname Jin means, no need for me to tell you."

These words made everyone in the royal family present blush a little. In recent years, the Shang family has indeed gone too far in treating the Jin family's survivors.

"Due to the surname Jin, I am different from others. I must first obtain the commitment and guarantee from the royal family before I dare to continue to treat the king. Therefore, I have to put forward a few conditions to ensure that I can treat the king for myself.

The rewards you deserve for your efforts.”

"Being able to look after injuries and illnesses for your Majesty is a great achievement and deserves a reward." Shang Yu spoke out before Shang Yu could, "As for what you said, it is indeed excusable. As the current Northern Jin Kingdom

The great prince of the prison country, I promise you in the name of the prison country, as long as the conditions you mentioned are not excessive, and as long as I can do it, then, for the sake of my father, I will do anything!"

These words made Shang Yu's face look ugly. He could tell that Shang Yu was going to take this opportunity to fight for the rights and interests of his confidants. But in this situation, his second-ranked prince was not interested in this topic at all.

There is no room for comment.

"That's right, whether it's official position, gold, immortal skills, or immortal weapons, you can ask for it. As long as it can cure the king's injuries and get rid of the poison of demon poison, the royal family will agree to anything."

"By saying this, do you mean you can really take charge?" Jin Ling looked at them.

"As the supervisor of the country, I am the only one who has the right to use my father's jade seal, so I naturally have the final say!" Shang Jiong said.

"The queen died young, and I am in charge of the harem. I am also in charge of the harem." Concubine Fu also said.

"Okay!" With the two of them personally vouching for it, Jin Ling felt a lot more at ease. "Then, I will put forward three conditions as a reward for treating the king's injuries and exorcising the devil's poison."

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

"First, I need safety, I need the royal family's commitment to ensure the personal and property safety of me and everyone behind me in Jinyuan, and to ensure that we can be treated equally with everyone else in the kingdom, everyone, including

No one in the royal family can provoke me, Jinyuan people, etc. without reason or intentionally for any reason."

As he said this, he glanced at the Imperial Master intentionally or unintentionally.

The Imperial Master's expression could not be seen through the mask, but his anger could be seen from his clenched hands.

"If you can save the king, you will be the benefactor of the royal family. Anyone who dares to embarrass you and your Jinyuan will be in trouble with the entire royal family. The royal family will definitely punish them severely!" Shang Jiong said.

He also glanced at a person, this person was the second prince Shang Yu.

Under this glance, the latter's face became so dark that he almost cried out.

"Secondly, I heard that the kingdom has the right to apply for the canonization of some lower-level titles. Only by being knighted can one be able to maintain an official position. Some of my subordinates are immortals, so I need the kingdom to give me a legitimate title. It doesn't need to be higher. Baron is enough.

.”

As soon as these words came out, neither Shang Jiong nor Concubine Fu immediately agreed and fell into thinking.

Shang Yu said angrily: "Bold! Since the founding of the Yongye Empire, 3,600 titles have been enfeoffed and passed down throughout the world. It is clearly determined that if future generations do not have corresponding military merit, they will be reduced by one level every other generation! I, the Kingdom of the Northern Jin Dynasty, have been enfeoffed so far

Those with the title of nobility are no more than thirty! You are young and have no military merit. How could you be so virtuous and capable that you dare to ask for the title of baron?"

In the Yongye Empire, the titles are divided into nine levels, including the chief title and the deputy title.

The official title is king, duke, marquis, uncle, son, male, etc.

The deputy lords are Bu, Qu, Ding San and so on.

Ding Jue can support an official.

Qu Jue can support five officials.

A bujue can support ten people.

A baron can support fifty people.

A viscount can support hundreds of officials.

/>

The title is obtained through inheritance from the father's generation. Every other generation, the title is reduced by one level. After the father's death, he takes his father's will or token to the Immortal Jue Division of the Yongye Empire to inherit the next-level title and report to Yongye.

Immortal Emperor's imperial approval.

The second is to rely on military merits on the battlefield and accumulate enough military merits to be knighted, then you can report your merits to the Merit Examination Department of the Ministry of War of the Evernight Empire.

It will then be decided clearly by the Immortal Lord Division of the Ministry of Personnel, and then reported to the Yongye Immortal Emperor for approval.

Third, for those who have made great contributions to the country, according to the size of their achievements, the immortal country where they are located will declare their title to the Immortal Jue Division of the Yongye Empire's Ministry of Civil Affairs, and then report it to the Yongye Immortal Emperor for approval.

No matter what kind of title is obtained, it must go through the imperial approval of the aloof Immortal Emperor Yongye, which shows how difficult it is to obtain this title.

When Jin Ling inherited his father's title, he was led by his father's subordinates. After going through many hardships and many months of twists and turns, he arrived at the Immortal Jue Division of the Yongye Empire. After presenting the token, he inherited his father's title from Jin Nanshan. As a result, Jin Ling inherited his father's title.

Those who lost their country also passed through generations. At that time, Jin Nanshan only had the title of Bujue. When it was passed down to Jinling, he was only a Qujue.

However, Jin Ling did not dare to disclose the canonization documents and tokens to the Shang family. Therefore, he had to use another method to obtain the title and maintain his official career in a legitimate manner.

If this problem is not solved, sooner or later someone will make a fuss about it.

Precisely because it was difficult to obtain the title, Shang Jiong did not dare to agree on the spot when it was brought up. So when it was brought up, Shang Yu almost went berserk.

Those who hold a title will not only enjoy the allocation from the Eternal Night Empire every year, but also have many privileges. For example, crimes cannot be handled by ordinary criminals, but must be tried jointly by the Imperial Immortal Division and the Criminal Department of the kingdom where they are located, and the sentencing is generally higher than that of ordinary immortals.

Scholars or mortals are much lighter.

Those who hold the title of nobility generally have corresponding fiefs, can occupy all taxes in the fief, and can appoint and remove officials at will. In essence, they are the "local emperors" in the fief.

Those with noble titles can generally raise a corresponding number of immortals, form their own armed forces, and let these forces serve their own forces. Even some high-ranking knights can form their own army.

"Jin Ling." Shang Jiong said, "As for the title, as a small subordinate country, we in the Northern Jin Dynasty can only submit candidates and merits to the empire. Whether we can be awarded a title depends on the final decision of the Empire's Immortal Lords Department. Your conditions

, the royal family may not be able to do it.”

"Then apply first." Jin Ling said with a smile, "Anyway, by the time I get rid of all the poisonous bugs for King Shang, the empire's decision will be almost made."

"Okay, I will instruct the kingdom's officials to write down the application and send it as soon as possible." Shang Jiong said.

"The third condition is that I need to have a large garden in Jinhua City, which is enough to accommodate three to four hundred people, and there is enough space to open an inn, academy, and other large gardens. That's it."

This condition was simple, and Shang Jiong and others breathed a sigh of relief.

It doesn't take much effort for the royal family to find a garden for him in such a huge city. In order to gain a false reputation, some businessmen are even willing to spend endless sums of money and offer generous properties. They can also appoint a few officials.

Just give me the name of some aristocratic family and that's it.

"So, your conditions are three: to ensure the safety of you and Jinyuan, to give you the title of baronet and a big garden, right?" Shang Jiong asked.

"That's right." Jin Ling replied.
