Chapter 254 Rewards
As a result, people who have long been tempted by delicious food began to feast on it.

After all, palace banquets are different from ordinary banquets. It is impossible to allow those who attend the banquet to move around holding wine glasses, toasting and drinking, and everyone can only sit at their own tables and eat dishes in a relatively quiet manner. However, Emperor Taixiang's words of "don't be restrained" made some heads completely let go of their restraint, grasping meat, mouth full of oil, tsk tsk in their mouths, and even drink directly into the jug...

Emperor Taixiang didn't move his chopsticks very much. He focused on the guests in the hall. Not only did he not feel disgusted by some people's presumptuous behavior, but he found it interesting. Cao Zhong beside him has his identity.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Emperor Taixiang got up and stepped down from the throne. His action immediately attracted the attention of everyone who was eating and drinking.

Emperor Taixiang walked to a dining table behind Yang Tongping, and watched the people who got up to salute. Although he had been watching for a long time on the dragon chair, he was still amazed when he got close: a bright and unparalleled face revealed The heroic temperament was something he had never seen among the concubines in the harem.

Emperor Taixiang calmed down, and said in a gentle tone: "Sister, after 30 years, you will lead the iron-blooded Changhe Gate back to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you will make great contributions in the war of arresting rebels and exterminating the Qiang rebellion. Not long ago, I heard about you Swearing an oath at the knighting ceremony, his loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth, and I am deeply moved! For this, I would like to offer you a toast." After he finished speaking, the eunuch next to him had already brought the gold bottle and handed it over .

Ye Ziqiong replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, I was just doing what I should do, and I don't deserve such praise from you, Your Majesty."

"It's good to do what you should do. There are successors to the Protector of the Kingdom! I believe that under your leadership, the Iron-Blooded Changhemen will definitely achieve greater glory!" Emperor Taixiang stared at Ye Ziqiong's beautiful face, and couldn't help but said softly He said: "I am very glad that I can recognize you as a righteous sister, but I regret that I met you too late!"

Ye Ziqiong lowered her head and picked up her wine glass, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness! I will definitely lead the iron-blooded Changhe gate guards to protect my Great Zhou, and I will live up to your expectations!"

"Okay! Okay!" Emperor Taixiang happily drank the wine in the golden bottle in another gulp, watched Ye Ziqiong sit down and lowered her head to pick up the vegetables, and then walked to the table next to her.

Ye San stood up slowly, cupped his fists and saluted: "Your Majesty."

"Fan Yanghou." Emperor Taixiang looked at the old and skinny old man in front of him, and said with some emotion: "When I was young, I often heard the heroic stories of Lord Huguo and Fan Yanghou who led the iron-blooded Changhemen to fight against the northern barbarians. Today I can see the hero in the story with my own eyes again, and I am very happy to see you come back! This cup, I respect you!"

After Emperor Taixiang finished speaking, he asked the eunuch accompanying him to take a brand new wine glass. He filled it up himself, handed it to Ye San respectfully, and then raised the golden cup to touch it.

Ye San was neither surprised nor pleased with what Emperor Tai Xiang had done, and accepted it calmly.

After drinking the wine in the glass, Emperor Taixiang continued: "I hope, Fan Yanghou, you can still serve the country as before and make new achievements!"

"As a citizen of the Great Zhou, it is of course imperative to serve the country." Ye San said calmly, "It's just that I'm old, so I can only assist Master Ye to do what he can."

Emperor Taixiang laughed: "If there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, Fan Yanghou underestimates himself too much. Since you said just now that it is a duty to serve the country, you must not refuse if the court needs it in the future." Taixiang The Emperor half-jokingly and half-seriously dropped this sentence, turned around and walked back to the throne.

Discussions in the hall started again: "The head of the Iron Blood Changhe Gate is actually a little girl, and she is so pretty, I wonder if she is married?"

"Don't dream, she is Ye Daxia's granddaughter, who just inherited the title of Lord Protector not long ago, and was considered a righteous sister by the emperor, do you think she will take a fancy to you?!"

"She... No matter how noble her status is, she is still a woman, and she is in the Jianghu. In the martial arts, the strong are respected. Think of me in Ailao Mountain—"

"Shut up! If you are ignorant and want to die, you must first see who the old man was just now."

"who is it?"

"Shadow Ye San, Ye Daxia's most powerful subordinate back then, it is rumored that he has learned the true biography of Ye Daxia, and his martial arts are not inferior to the two Zen masters in Shaolin. I heard from the chief inspector of martial arts that the emperor originally planned to directly appoint him as the seventh. He was a national protector, but he refused, saying that he wanted to get this title through this martial arts conference."

"That old man is so powerful?!"

"There is more than one Ye San in the Iron-Blooded Changhe Gate! Tang Fangzhuo, the arrow in colorful clothes, Luo Sledgehammer who does not break the long wall, Zhou Qiao, the flying god, and Geng Po, the bloody cook. A top-notch master! Even that young female sect master can make a wonderful swordsmanship, I am afraid that you, a small Ailao Mountain, can't match it."

"Who are you to know so clearly about Iron Blood Changhe Gate?"

"Next is Leng Yuntian, the head of the Bashu Hanshan Sect. Last year, he participated in the Pingqiang War with the Iron Blood Changhemen, and he has seen their strength with his own eyes."

"I see. From this point of view, whether it is participating in the sect competition or in the individual competition, the Jagged Changhemen are extremely powerful, and they will definitely be able to make a big splash in this martial arts conference!"

"What a blockbuster?! Iron Blood Changhe Gate was originally powerful, but it has been far away from the Central Plains for decades, and everyone has forgotten it. Now they have returned to glory."

"Yeah, it's a good thing that the Jagged Changhe Gate will reappear in the martial arts world. We can also feast our eyes on Ye Daxia's famous stunts that dominated the world back then. Let's take a look at the shadow of Ye Shan and the two Zen masters of Shaolin. Who is more powerful?"

"That's right, that's right, compared to the competition between them, it will be extremely exciting!"

……

Listening to everyone's discussion, Xue Chang silently stared at Ye Ziqiong's position, and thought to himself: I looked for a long time just now, but I couldn't find her figure, so it turned out to be at the innermost side of my side.I wonder when she arrived in Luoyang?Will you go to the palace to participate in a personal competition tomorrow? ...

Xue Chang was thinking about it, when suddenly he heard the eunuch shouting: "Please be quiet!"

After a while, Emperor Taixiang's voice sounded in the hall: "Zen Master Wubei!"

"Your Majesty." Standing up under the throne was the back view of a monk who was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, wearing a brocade cassock.

"Shaolin is a well-known martial arts sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty. For 30 years, it has always followed the law and obeyed the orders of the imperial court. Over the years, it has also taken the initiative to send eminent monks of Luohan Hall to various armies on the northern border to teach soldiers martial arts and improve their combat capabilities. Now The northern border is stable, and Shaolin’s contribution is indispensable. What he has done is a model for all schools in the martial arts! Therefore, I decided to increase the number of Shaolin disciples and donate land, and have other rewards to show their achievements. After the palace banquet, the chief inspector Wusi officials will explain the specific reward details to the Zen master.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zen Master Wu Bei never thought that participating in a palace banquet would be such a good thing. Although years of meditation made his expression unchanged, there was still a hint of joy in his tone.

"Zen Master, please sit down." Emperor Taixiang stretched out his hand to signal Abbot Shaolin to sit down, then looked in the other direction of the main hall, and said, "Is the leader of the exorcist gang Wu Zhaoshen here?"

A middle-aged man stood up on the left side of the center of the hall, saluted in a low voice and said, "Your Majesty, I am here."

"Although Beiyan has always maintained peace with my Dazhou, the Xianbei people are barbaric and do not know etiquette. Small conflicts often occur across the border. My kind Dazhou people are often the one who suffers. Helping the people, actively helping the injured people, and paying back blood debts for them regardless of hardships, has earned a great reputation, and also made the people in the frontier feel at ease, and thus reduced the turmoil in the northern border. Such a move that benefits the country and the people makes me very happy Because of my admiration, I decided to increase the establishment and land grants of the Exorcist Gang, and also give other rewards. After the banquet, the officials of the General Patrol Division will tell you the specific reward details..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live your Majesty! Long live!" Wu Zhaoshen was overjoyed and praised repeatedly.

"The leader of the iron gall horse gang Bu Xiangyin." Emperor Taixiang continued to shout.

"Your Majesty!" A strong man with a rough face and a rough voice stood up.

"Bandits and bandits have always been rampant in the northwest border, and they are fierce and cunning, and they come and go like a wind. The court has nothing to do about it, but the leader of the Bu gang has traveled in many ways and made unremitting efforts. Declare war on these ferocious bandits. After years of hard work, the bandits in the Northwest are no longer as rampant as in previous years. In view of your achievements, I have decided to increase the organization and grant land to the Tiedan Horse Gang. Wantong Escorts also have rewards, after the palace banquet, the officials of the General Patrol Division..."

After Emperor Taixiang finished speaking, three people stood up in the hall and saluted and thanked him together.

"Xuanyin Sect Mengzhu leader."

"Your Majesty, I... I'm here." Meng Zhu hurriedly stood up, and subconsciously covered her thighs with her hands, completely gone from the frivolity she had when molesting Xue Chang just now.

Xue Chang was surprised: Did this seemingly unreliable Xuanyin leader also make meritorious service?
However, Emperor Taixiang said in a loud voice: "There are many barbarians in southern Xinjiang, and they are not familiar with Sinicization. The Xuanyin religion has been rooted there for decades, and has tirelessly educated the local aborigines, making them admire the imperial court and making great contributions to the stability of southern Xinjiang! The vast territory of southern Xinjiang The population is sparse, the Xuanyin Sect has no shortage of land, and there has never been a limit on personnel, so I decided to give the Xuanyin Sect a large amount of material rewards. After the banquet, the leader of Meng can discuss with the officials of the General Patrol Division, list the materials, and hand them over to me approve."

"Your Majesty, you are so kind! You are so generous!" Meng Zhu shouted excitedly.
