Chapter 239
When Emperor Tai'an saw that no one from Yuan Sha's party stood up to oppose him, he remained calm on the face, but secretly became vigilant in his heart.

He said: "In this case, Chen Boyu and Chen Zhou's goddaughters are well-known. Chen Boyu was granted the title of Marquis of the county, and the family of Chen Zhou was granted the title of Lord of Huaiyuan County. Five thousand, their father and daughter live in Huaiyuan County, what do you think?"

Yuan Xie didn't expect that this letter would be given to the whole family, and Chen Huiyin's letter would be the title of the princess, so he made an example: "Your Majesty, Chen Huiyin's title of princess is too high, and the title of Zhao'an is too high." not suitable.

Also, both her parents were rewarded, and the reward was too generous. The official suggested that the Chen couple's reward should be cancelled, and it would be enough for Chen Huiyin to be a village lord. "

The Minister of the Household Department stood up and objected: "Master Yuan, Chen Huiyin cultivated three high-yield grain varieties by himself, as well as the farm tools designed in the early stage, which added tens of thousands of acres of farmland to Daqi every year.

There are also rice milling machines and flour milling machines, as well as the advanced power plant in the speed-up merchant ship, which was also designed by Chen Huiyin. She is also credited for these achievements, even Princess Feng. Master Yuan's proposal is too petty. "

With the beginning of Hubu Shangshu, the rest of the pure officials also stood up to oppose Yuan Xie, and Yuan Xie's party members naturally stood up to support him, and the two sides quarreled for a while.

Emperor Qin An sat high on the dragon chair, watched the two parties quarreling for a while, then scolded them, and then his eyes fell on Yuan Xie: "Master Yuan, so you are going to be my master."

The cold words, and the deep and coercive gaze made Yuan Xi feel a sense of crisis in his heart. He hurriedly raised his hands and said: "I don't dare, I just put forward my own opinions."

Emperor Tai'an withdrew his gaze from Yuan Xie, and said coldly, "I'm sorry you don't dare."

Hearing this sentence, Yuan Xi clenched his hand that was held by his sleeve by his side into a fist, and a surge of anger surged in his heart at the same time. Just when he was almost unable to suppress it, a servant sang from outside the hall: "The Queen Mother Yizhi arrives."

"Xuan." Emperor Tai'an ordered, and after a while, he saw the chief eunuch next to the empress dowager, holding the empress dowager's edict in his hand, and after saluting to Emperor Tai'an, he unfolded the edict.

The eunuch in charge said: "County Zhao'an has made such great contributions to the court. The Ai family is very happy, knowing that the treasury is not easy, so the Ai family will take money from the private treasury to make up for the princess of Zhao'an County. Those who have made great contributions to the country should not be treated lightly.”

This Yi decree was like a slap in the face, and it was slammed on Yuan Xie's face. Not only did it not anger him further, on the contrary, it made his anger go out immediately, and his heart was filled with deep jealousy. He knew that the Queen Mother was warning him. .

The rewards of the Chen family were set in this way, Emperor Tai'an drew up the imperial decree, and the Queen Mother would also prepare for Chen Huiyin the four seasons clothes made by the princess, the carriage made by the princess, and the ten maids and ten servants who served, And the officials of the Ministry of Industry responsible for the construction of the princess's mansion, as well as the generous rewards given by the queen in her own name, set off for Huaiyuan County together.

Two days later, the emissary arrived at Chen's house, and the Chen family had prepared an incense table to receive the edict. After the envoy finished reading the edict, Chen Boyu and Zhou Jinghao were stunned.

It was Chen Huiyin who tugged at their sleeves, and the two of them came to their senses. The family of three thanked the emperor for their kindness together. Chen Boyu accepted the imperial edict and handed the reward purse that he had prepared earlier to the envoy of the edict.

The envoy received it, and then said with a smile: "The Marquis of Chen County and the Master of Zhao'an County, Your Majesty also rewarded you with food. The Marquis of Chen County has a thousand households, and the Master of Zhao'an County has five thousand households, both of which are in Huaiyuan County. Find some time and go to the county seat, firstly, the Queen Mother will issue an order for the princess to build a princess mansion in Huaiyuan County, and secondly, confirm the location of Shiyi with the county magistrate."

Chen Boyu replied: "Thank you for reminding me, I have refreshments at home, the messenger has worked hard all the way here, go and use some!"

The emissary of the decree responded happily: "Then our family will not be polite, and it is just a good opportunity to take advantage of the happiness of the princess, county lord, and county lord."

After entertaining the envoys who announced the decree and seeing them off, Chen Boyu's family breathed a sigh of relief when people from the village came to inquire one after another. Zhou Jing did not hide the fact that His Majesty rewarded them, after all, it was such a big battle.

In the small courtyard, Aunt Li looked at a string of maids and servants who came back behind the master, including familiar faces. She nodded to the familiar people, and after saying hello, she said to the young master: "Jun Lord, let the servants arrange these people."

Aunt Li, she has nothing to worry about, besides, the people who are rewarded by the Queen Mother will basically have no problems, and she is waiting for the reward to start expanding her career. She will be busy and have no time to manage it. these people.

She called Ankang, who had just been transferred from the farm, to the yard, and told him to go to Gyeongju immediately to prepare for the construction of the glass and porcelain workshops.

In the evening, Chen Huiyin told Tang Yaoling about her and her parents' award, and Tang Yaoling was naturally happy for his young fiancee. He wrote on the note: "In a short time, General Yu may represent the father and discuss with you about buying a high-yield What do you think about upland rice and wheat?"

Chen Huiyin replied to him: "In the evening, I heard from Aunt Li that our family was rewarded, and Yuan Yao proposed to exempt my parents from the reward because the reward was too generous.

I was named the princess, and I was also given the title Zhao'an, which was also rejected. Yuan Xie suggested that it would be enough to seal me as a township monarch. The rules of the princess.

There is also the empress, who also rewarded a generous reward to show her position, and then forced Yuan Yao to retreat. They confronted Yuan Yao for our family, and I should also say something. The price was sold to the court. "

Tang Yaoling read her reply, and felt warm in his heart. If the upland rice and wheat seeds were sold, the price would be two to three hundred yuan a catty, but a bucket of rice would only cost twenty yuan, and a bucket of rice would be less, but only ten yuan. .

He picked up a pen and wrote on the paper: "Sister Qiao, you are so kind, you can use the grain harvested on my farm as seeds and sell it, and I will give you all the money you get, as well as the caravan's dividends. take it."

Chen Huiyin read his reply, smiled sweetly, and replied to him with a pen: "No, keep your money well. In the future, there will be places for you to spend money. I'm afraid it's not enough for you. Although I'm not here I can make money from growing grain, but you forgot, I have several cash cows in my hands. Today I have sent Ankang to Gyeongju to prepare for the construction of a workshop.

Tomorrow, Dad and I will go to the county seat to find the county magistrate to determine the location of the princess's mansion and the division of food towns. My dad and I have a total of [-] households in the food towns. As long as we manage well, we can earn back in a year. suffer. "
