"So it remains as Secondary Sixth-Rank Upper?"
"Prince Xin, have you gone senile?" Luo Hou King asked incredulously, "Zhao Xing now has nearly four million in military merits. By the rules, he should be promoted to Fifth Rank. Don't you remember?"
"..." Prince Xin was at a loss for words. Was this really a discussion about promotions?
We are talking about handling things, big brother.
If you do it this way, how could Prince Liang agree?
Prince Anning said, "Luo Hou, forget about Fifth Rank. If you want to temper his character, promoting him now, when he's being sent to the local area, won't that make him arrogant? Isn't that against your initial intention?"
The persuasion from Ji Anming did have some effect.
Luo Hou King pondered, "If not Fifth Rank, then promote him to Positive Sixth Rank Upper still."
"Zhao Xing has repeatedly achieved extraordinary feats, and his talents surpass others," Ji Anming commented. "Positive Sixth Rank Upper is not excessive."
