Chapter 615: Grant a plaque and erect a monument

The day after Bai Dazhuang and others returned to their hometown.

The reputation of Shenshu Village has once again become a hot topic in the streets and alleys of Huaicheng.

The last hot search was about the time when Xiao Fuyuan was named the Lord of Fulong Village. This time, naturally, it was the arrival of the emperor's envoy who gave a plaque and a monument to Shenshu Village.

If he hadn't been stopped by the guards, the road from Yangfeng County to Shenshu Village would have been blocked by onlookers.

The father-in-law and the messenger arrived early in the morning.

The prefect Liu Hong accompanied him with a cheerful look on his face.

He comes to Shenshu Village every year, and new happy events happen every year.

This time the emperor not only gave a plaque and a monument to Shenshu Village, but also asked his father-in-law to give an oral speech praising him.

This place is a blessed place, it is prosperous for him. Now Liu Hong is especially grateful to Fan Shijie's comrades who demoted him from the capital to Yangfeng County as the county magistrate.

If he hadn't offended Fan Shijie by saying something he shouldn't have said in the street while drinking in anger, he wouldn't be as proud as he is now.

You must know that among his classmates, there are more people whose names the Emperor cannot even match.

His face, name and political achievements made a deep impression on the emperor.

Villagers in Shenshu Village were woken up by Village Chief Zhao knocking on their doors at night.

I spent most of the night sweeping the village roads, cleaning the private schools, tying up the cattle and sheep...

They are all loyal and brave villages praised by the emperor. How can we not show a new look in front of the father-in-law and envoys sent by the emperor?

What if the father-in-law and the envoy stepped on cow dung when they entered the village? How terrible would it be?
The people of Shenshu Village also understand this truth. They did not complain at all about being picked up in their sleep. Instead, everyone had proud smiles on their faces, holding back the pride that we are Zhongyong Village, and enthusiastically visited people in and outside the village. Clean your home and outside your home.

At dawn, everyone groomed themselves and their children again, took a bath, shaved, applied powder, and changed into new clothes. They stood energetically on both sides of the village road to welcome the envoys who presented plaques and monuments.

"I'm coming……"

The crowd immediately boiled up.

Village Chief Zhao waved his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

I told everyone last night that this is a solemn and solemn matter, and you still make a fuss about it.

Do you understand that this is an imperial edict?
But the villagers didn't care at all and had no choice but to be too excited.

Last time Xiao Fuyuan was named the head of the village, everyone just looked at it as a show of excitement. But this time it is related to the honor of the whole village, so there is no way not to be excited.

"Everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet." The white wooden board shouted at the top of his lungs.

Everyone quickly quieted down.

Now in Shenshu Village, the words of the Bai family are more effective than those of Village Chief Zhao.

There is no way, who let the Bai family lead the people in the village to get rich? The glory of Zhongyong Village was also earned by Bai Dazhuang and his people.

If you don’t listen to the Bai family, who will you listen to?

Eunuch Hong, who was responsible for announcing the decree, got off the carriage with a kind smile on his face.

He was not angry because Shenshu Village was crowded with noisy crowds like the vegetable market. He was actually happy from the bottom of his heart.

Everyone is so enthusiastic, what does this mean?It shows that everyone is grateful to the emperor from the bottom of their hearts!

In addition, Shenshu Village is the blessed land of the eldest prince, and the emperor has already told him not to scare these villagers who are kind to his highness.

The incense table has already been set up.

At Master Liu Hong's signal, everyone turned to look at the Bai family. After all, only the Bai family in the village had experience in receiving orders.

"The villagers of Shenshu Village accept the order!"

Everyone knelt down when they saw the white wooden board, so they knelt down and followed suit, quietly accepting the order.

"By God's blessing, the emperor decreed that... the eighteen warriors of Shenshu Village were loyal and brave... participated in the defense of Ningcheng and demonstrated their loyalty and bravery. A plaque and monument were specially given to Shenshu Village..."

The resounding voice of Eunuch Xi who announced the decree resounded throughout Shenshu Village.

Village Chief Zhao, the village representative of Shenshu Village, straightened up, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and took the shining silk paper from Eunuch Xi's hand.

Despite countless mental preparations, Village Chief Zhao still had shortness of breath and could not steady himself. He felt that the tissue paper in his hand was heavy, and he burst into tears of excitement.God, he has lived so long that he can actually touch the imperial edict with his own hands.

It was such a great honor that the smoke rising from the old Zhao family's ancestral grave was thicker than his waist.

Even if you die, you can be worthy of your ancestors.

Village Chief Zhao was so excited that he trembled. He lost his balance and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was held up by the government servants brought by Liu Hong.

Wu Langzhong had already been warned by the white board to carry the medicine kit with him, fearing that Village Chief Zhao would faint in excitement so that he could administer the acupuncture.

Fortunately, Village Chief Zhao did not faint even though he was so excited that he lost his temper.

In addition to giving plaques and monuments, the emperor also rewarded the eighteen warriors with silver satin pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

When the Eighteen Warriors or their families received the emperor's reward, they were as excited as Village Chief Zhao.

Liu Fugui's mother cried on the spot.

Everyone unanimously decided to enshrine the silver and satin, and give pens, inks, paper and inkstones to the children and grandchildren to use for reading and writing. The emperor's reward may lead to the number one scholar.

Then, the guards with swords hung the plaque of the Village of Loyalty and Courage on the ancestral hall of Shenshu Village, and erected a monument at the entrance of the village.

"Why is this monument without words?" People from Shenshu Village discovered Hua Dian.

Eunuch Xi smiled slightly and looked at the Bai family.

"The emperor said that this stele will be written by the fourth son of the Bai family himself after the palace examination."

The villagers of Shenshu Village suddenly realized.

"That means the number one pick will definitely be our fourth child."

"The fourth child is from Shenshu Village. If he gets the top prize, he can write it for us personally. That's appropriate."

The villagers in Shenshu Village were discussing it.

Liu Hong wanted to stop everyone's mouth. He even openly said that the number one scholar was definitely the fourth child. He didn't know if he thought the emperor had made the decision in advance.

When he turned around and saw Eunuch Xi smiling, he just let the villagers talk nonsense.

The villagers were lively and happy, even during the Chinese New Year.

Sometimes I'm surrounded by the plaque and sometimes I'm surrounded by the monument. I don't know which one to look at.

Those eighteen warriors and their families who were rewarded by the living emperor were surrounded by the villagers who couldn't stop envying them.

"If I had known better, I wouldn't have stopped my boy from going to the border."

One of the ladies stamped her foot in annoyance.

She coveted the silver and satin in Liu Fugui's mother's hands.

God, that was a gift from the emperor!
"You only saw that there is a reward now. It's okay that your son didn't follow. My little boy is still at the border. I am worried every day. I would rather not have the reward than to have him come back." The village chief's wife said quietly.

Eunuch Xi heard the chattering discussion among the villagers and looked for something.

"Old slave, have you met the Furong village master?"

Eunuch Xi finished reading the edict and completed the task. He found Xiao Fuyuan standing in the crowd and slowly came to her to salute.

"Uncle Xi, you're welcome." Xiao Fuyuan smiled and turned sideways to avoid his salute.

"Eunuch Xi, how old is she? Please don't hurt her." Madam Zhen stood in front of Xiao Fuyuan and blessed Eunuch Xi with a smile.

Grandpa Xi quickly avoided it.

Others didn't know it, but he knew that this was the Queen Mother's niece.

"Madam, can you ask me for a cup of tea?" Eunuch Xi bowed to Zhen.

Zhen smiled and nodded.

She also wanted to know about her fourth son's situation in the capital and the condition of her aunt the Queen Mother.
