Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 715  Chapter 293: Merit Through the Ages! The First Emperor! Zhao Feng Volunteers!

Upon hearing Tian Jianʼs request,

Ying Zheng chuckled and immediately declared: ”The King of Qi surrenders to Qin, allowing both nations to avoid the ravages of war, and unifying our Huaxia into one. This move prevents tens of thousands of casualties and is indeed a great merit.”

”Today.”

”I decree the King of Qi to be sealed as Marquis of Anle, with his direct descendants inheriting the title in perpetuity. I grant them authority, and except for crimes of rebellion or treason, the heir of the marquis title shall be spared from death once.”

”As for the King of Qiʼs entire family and their territories, I grant the land of Luoyi as the dwelling place for the Qi royal family. The wealth brought by the King of Qi shall all belong to him.”

”The Qi royal family in Qin shall not violate Qin Law and shall be treated with grace.”

Upon hearing this!

Tian Jian gratefully knelt down.

”Great King, your benevolence is immeasurable.”

”The Tian Clan expresses its gratitude with tears.”

Tian Jian bowed excitedly.

At this moment, Tian Jian felt the benefits of surrendering voluntarily.

The kings of other nations defeated by the might of Qinʼs soldiers now face dire fates.

The King of Yan is dead, the King of Chu is dead.

The remaining kings are imprisoned within dungeons, perhaps never to be freed until their deaths.

But he surrendered directly, not only gaining freedom but also wealth and prosperity, which is precisely what Tian Jian desired.

”Luoyi shall be the residence for the entire clan of the Marquis of Anle.”

”In Xianyang, a mansion must be granted as well. The Marquis of Anle may choose to reside in Xianyang or live in Luoyi.”

”Chancellor Han.”

”This matter shall be personally arranged by you, and the Marquis of Anle must not be wronged.” Ying Zheng instructed once more.

”I accept the edict.” Han Fei responded immediately.

”Bring the Marquis of Anle to rest.” Ying Zheng waved.

Immediately, a few temple officials entered.

”Marquis of Anle, please.” A temple official said respectfully.

”Thank you, Great King.” Tian Jian expressed his gratitude again, then followed the temple officialʼs figure out.

Within this moment.

The matter of Qi was thoroughly concluded.

At this moment!

Li Si stepped forward.

”Report to the Great King.”

”Now that Qi has been vanquished, the world returns to Qin, and the world is unified.”

”Qin is the world, the world is Qin.”

”The Great King has created an unprecedented enterprise for kings throughout the ages.”

”Surpassing the Three Emperors, with virtue higher than the Five Sovereigns, he is unique throughout history.”

”I deem that now, with the world unified, the title of ʼkingʼ is no longer sufficient to convey the Great Kingʼs majesty, nor to showcase the Great Kingʼs leadership in unifying the world under Qin.”

”Therefore.”

”I have a title to offer the Great King.”

Li Si said with a solemn face.

Listening to Li Siʼs words,

Not only Ying Zheng became interested, but all eyes in the court of civil and military officials converged with interest.

”Speak.”

Ying Zheng asked with great interest.

”Surpassing the Three Emperors, with virtue higher than the Five Sovereigns.”

”The First Emperorʼs title is about to be revealed.”

To this.

Those familiar with history, like Zhao Feng, certainly found no surprise.

For historically, it was Li Si who first proposed the title of the First Emperor.

”The Great King has created an unprecedented enterprise for kings throughout the ages.”

”Uniting the world, bringing benefits to the world, ceasing the chaos of war.”

”The title should be: ʼEmperorʼ.”

”The Great King shall be the first emperor of the world, as ʼFirst Emperorʼ.”

Li Si spoke with solemnity and reverence.

The title of the First Emperor was announced.

The entire Morning Discussion Hall of Qin erupted as if a stone had shattered the calm.

Everyone was astounded by this title.

In the ancient times, there were titles of the Three Emperors, and later titles of the Five Sovereigns.

But in those times.

They were, in fact, the era of tribes, and there was no existence of kingdoms, the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns were elected leaders of tribes, not emperors.

And in the following Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, their dynasties were respected as kings among the feudal lords, the feudal lords were commonly respected.

This is explained through historical records, not myth or fantasy.

The name of the First Emperor.

A title never before seen, unprecedented.

”First Emperor, this title is impressive and distinguished, enough to manifest the Great Kingʼs identity and achievements.”

”Indeed.”

”First Emperor, the first emperor since ancient times.”

”Such a title, only the Great King is worthy of it.”

”Throughout the land, all shall respect it.”

Listening to Li Siʼs proposal of the title, all the civil and military officials nodded, expressing their recognition of the title.

First Emperor!

The first emperor since ancient times.

Such a title, only their Great King is worthy of it.

”Good.”

”A fine title of ʼEmperorʼ.”

”A fine title of ʼFirst Emperorʼ.”

”This title, I accept!”

Ying Zheng stood up, a look of excitement spreading across his face.

”I pay homage to the First Emperor.”

Li Si immediately paid respect to Ying Zheng.

As his voice fell.

All the civil and military officials acted accordingly.

”We pay homage to the First Emperor.”

The civil and military officials all paid respect and called out.

The name of the First Emperor.

Appeared for the first time in the court of the Great Qin Dynasty, appeared for the first time on the land of Shenzhou, and appeared for the first time in this world.

”Good!”

”From this day forward.”

”I, am Emperor, the first emperor since ancient times, the first emperor of the world.”

”First Emperor.”

Ying Zheng spread his arms wide, announcing imposingly.

”Salute the First Emperor.”

”I have another proposal.”

Zhao Feng stood forward, a smile on his face.

”Lord Wuʼan, please speak.”

Ying Zheng smiled slightly, looking at Zhao Feng.

He was curious to see what Zhao Feng might propose.

”Since the title is ʼFirst Emperorʼ, one cannot refer to oneself as king anymore. A self-title befitting an emperorʼs grandeur should be introduced.”

”Furthermore, the royal edict should also be changed.”

”The royal edict should be changed to ʼHoly Decreeʼ, as a decree signifies the emperorʼs will, revered by all of Qin.” Zhao Feng calmly proposed.

Upon hearing Zhao Fengʼs proposal, Ying Zhengʼs eyes lit up: ”A fine decree of ʼHoly Decreeʼ, you speak correctly, I have already superseded the title of king, as the first emperor of ancient times, the edict should be elevated, the name of ʼHoly Decreeʼ can manifest my majesty, and further demonstrate the foundation of Qin.”

”As for my self-title.”

Ying Zheng wore a thoughtful expression.

Extremely earnest.

”I!”
