I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything-Chapter 715 - 573 You guys don’t consider me at all

In fact, not only Xu Lingjun understands...

They are all seasoned veterans in the officialdom, how could they not understand the concept of merit surpassing the sovereign?

Although the current Blue Star cannot afford internal conflict, and thus never has there been a situation where meritorious subjects were discarded like extinguished birds... the problem is that Xu Lingjun's situation differs too greatly from the past.

Others have merit surpassing the sovereign.

His merit is so huge that the entire Blue Star cannot contain it.

They cannot kill him... or rather, they cannot kill him...

What needs to be done is to suppress him as much as possible, or to dilute his achievements, while also trying not to provoke his wrath, to make his prestige not so high.

This is also for more convenient future relations between the ruler and subjects.

In fact, although Xu Lingjun returned to receive his conferment, he was already prepared, not intending to celebrate grandly like before.

But Han Xu Yang said...

"No rush, wait until I finish speaking."

Han Xu Yang smiled, gesturing for Xu Lingjun not to hurry, and said: "My rewards have yet to be announced, Qingxue... come..."

"Yes, Father."

Han Qingxue, holding a roll of Imperial Silk in her hands, slowly walked onto the stage.

It had been years since she last saw Xu Lingjun...

She had not changed at all, years of practicing Martial Arts Technique, along with the nourishment of numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, had extended her lifespan to nearly two hundred years, although she was almost thirty, she appeared no older than twenty.

However, in Han Qingxue's eyes, Xu Lingjun's transformation was immense.

Not in appearance...

He remained as handsome as ever, Han Qingxue couldn't imagine anyone more divine-looking.

But his aura had greatly changed.

Simply standing there, he exuded a majestic and towering presence.

If before he seemed like a righteous warrior who wouldn't bow to authority, now he was the supreme commander stirring stormy battles on the field.

She opened the Imperial Book.

Before speaking, her face involuntarily blushed red...

This Princess, who had learned ten years ago to remain calm in the face of sudden upheaval, was now flustered and at a loss, with no hint of her previous composure.

She glanced at Han Xu Yang in panic.

Han Xu Yang said, "Read it."

"Yes."

Han Qingxue's cherry lips parted slightly, she began: "Mandated by Heaven, the way of humanity is everlasting, now there is a Human Race hero, Xu Lingjun, who salvaged the Great Xia from collapse and rescued the Human Race from peril…"

The commendation was lengthy, reciting Xu Lingjun's numerous achievements over and over. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Including reclaiming the Desperate Great Wall and obliterating three groups of mysterious races of the heavens... Everyone was aware of these achievements, but hearing Han Xu Yang's official recognition still filled them with awe.

Especially Xu Liang of the Nine Major Military Regions and others, who regarded Xu Lingjun with admiration; they knew he was extraordinary, but never imagined he could lead the Qisha Legion to achieve such supreme feats!

What kind of reward could match such achievements?

No idea.

It felt as if giving him the entire Blue Star wouldn't be excessive.

Perhaps this was Your Majesty's fortunate dilemma?

Everyone attentively listened to the intricate details buried within the verbose edict...

And then, each one was stunned.

The edict was clear, even when translated, it boiled down to just a couple of sentences.

"Specifically, the two Princesses of the Han Clan are to be given in marriage to Xu Lingjun, Xu Lingjun is to be conferred as Crown Prince of the Great Xia Empire, and upon the current Emperor Han Xu Yang's abdication, he will ascend as the Master of Blue Star!"

Once everyone grasped its meaning.

Everyone was astounded...

This, this, did Your Majesty really give Blue Star to Xu Lingjun?

"How... how is this possible?"

From this day forth, the Han Clan changes the heavens and the earth?

For a moment, the civil and military officials in the hall were clamorous, some even looking at Xu Lingjun with slight wariness, wondering if he was so powerful that he forced Your Majesty to write such insincere decrees?

Indeed, he had that capability...

Remember, this was beyond gratitude for his accomplishments.

Would you give your family fortune to someone for doubling it out of gratitude?

Has Your Majesty gone mad?

And when Han Qingxue finished reading, she lightly bit her cherry lip, her gaze towards Xu Lingjun was also complex and hard to understand...

Actually, years ago, Han Xu Yang had contemplated marrying Han Qingxue to Xu Lingjun, as it was the best way to ease the tense relations between her and her siblings, and even stabilize the entire Blue Star.

But at that time, Xu Lingjun refused.

She was heartbroken over it... yet, having once conspired with Zhou Qianmo against Xu Lingjun, she felt guilty, and naturally held no resentment, believing her fate with Xu Lingjun was ultimately not meant to be.

All these years, she remained virtuous, even though she had long passed the suitable age for marriage, she never harbored any thoughts of closeness with any man.

Because having looked up to the peak of a mountain, how could the view of mere hills ever move her again?

And Han Xu Yang seemed to have forgotten his daughter's age, which in the outside world was considered an age of concern for marriage.
