Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 111 Reward (for Subscription)

Also as a transmigrator, the lion is much calmer. He lies under the flower bed and looks at the ants carrying food. At noon, he goes to the pool to take a bath, and then finds a cool place with a vent for an afternoon nap. When it is cooler in the afternoon, he will go Flirting with the butterflies in the flowers, living a happy and unrestrained life.

Early in the morning, Hu Yue came in excitedly and told: "Young master, madam, a guard came to the door, saying that an adult will come in fifteen minutes to deliver an order, please clean up quickly and set up the incense table."

"Okay, clean it up." Jin Yu was taken aback after hearing this, and only heard the news yesterday, but he didn't expect that the preacher would come today!This speed is really fast enough.

"Small ```No way." Hu Yue patronized Hu excitedly, and only realized after hearing the order that he had never done it.

Yang Ying sneered at Jin Yu, knowing that her husband would not know it, and ordered Hu Yue: "Bring out the case table, sit in the main courtyard facing north and arrange it neatly, then put the incense burner on, burn three sticks of incense, and put Chen The steward called, ready to meet the messenger, go quickly."

"The lady actually knows this?" Jin Yu was surprised to see Yang Ying so clearly.

"The concubine's mother taught me." Yang Ying smiled shyly, straightened Jinyu's collar, and said: "My husband still needs to change into the official uniform, so I will serve you when I return to the room."

Since a special person came to say hello in advance, it means that this is a real imperial decree, and the whole family needs to come out in formal attire.The Sui and Tang dynasties followed each other, and the ritual system did not change much. Yang Ying followed the Sui ritual arrangements in everything, and there was nothing wrong with it.

By the way, this is the first time for Jin Yu to wear this official uniform, and it feels so gaudy.When the award was awarded last time, Yang Ying wasn't there, so this time Yang Ying didn't have an official uniform, but only wore plain clothes, which made her look extraordinarily graceful.

Jin Yu and his wife waited inside the main entrance according to the etiquette. After a while, banners were flying and a crowd of people came.Good guy, are there too many people?The hospitality fee can't be lowered anymore, Jin Yu's heart is bleeding, and now that his hands are tight, Jin Yu is developing towards Grandet again.

When the people dismounted and stood in line, the little eunuch Xuanzhi sang: "The imperial edict has arrived~!" Chen Butler immediately sang: "Get up~"

Four strong laborers worked hard at the same time to lift the threshold out of the stone mortar, slowly lifted it aside and put it down, and another servant took a broom to sweep the threshold where there was not much dust, and the messengers filed in one after another.

Three people came in, Jin Yu knew two of them, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, but Jin Yu who walked in the front did not know him.

Just as Jin Yu was about to raise his hand to salute, Yang Ying behind him tugged his sleeves. It seemed that it was not in accordance with etiquette. Jin Yu wisely put his hands by his side in a respectful gesture.

Jin Yu adjusted his expression. Just as he entered the state, Yang Ying poked him again, signaling him to follow.In the middle, Fang Xuanling turned her head and wanted to remind the inexperienced Jin Yu. After seeing that Jin Yu's behavior was not inappropriate, she wondered to herself: This son of a returnee understands the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty so well?It seems that someone gave pointers.

Like a puppet, Jin Yu was at Yang Ying's mercy. When he came to the altar, the chubby adult walking in front raised his hand. Fang Xuanling hurriedly opened the sandalwood incense box in Wei Zheng's hand, and took out a brocade scroll. , and respectfully handed it to the leader.The moment the imperial decree was handed to the man, Yang Ying stabbed Jin Yu behind him again, Jin Yu glanced back, followed Yang Ying's example, bowed and lowered his hands as a sign of respect.

The man saw that Jin Yu and his wife were ready, opened the imperial decree, and began to read in a rhythmic tone. The rhythm was good, and it sounded like singing, but Jin Yu didn't understand it. Who made him fail to learn ancient Chinese?
The three adults who proclaimed the decree respectfully sealed the decree, put it on the incense table to enjoy the remaining incense, and when they came over, they praised Jin Yu: "Congratulations to the founding uncle of Baxian County! I have heard the name of Jinxian nephew for a long time, and he is full of knowledge. , it was only five cars full, and when I saw it today, it was really dignified and extraordinary."

Seeing that Jin Yu didn't know what to call him, Changsun Wuji introduced again: "Old man, Changsun Wuji, this is Mr. Wei Guogong, and this is Zheng Guogong, Mr. Wei."

Changsun Wuji is the eldest brother-in-law of His Majesty today, but if he didn't have two brushes, he might not be able to have the status of being under one person and above ten thousand people today.He understood the quarrel in the court a few days ago. His Majesty valued the talents of Jin Gui Tang very much. In the open, Qin Cheng and his family took care of him, and in secret, Fang Du and Wei three adults maintained him. Jin Gui Tang had a good relationship. It makes people jealous!Even this imperial decree was drawn up by His Majesty himself. It stands to reason that the task of announcing the decree can be undertaken by everyone from eunuchs to ministers, depending on the identity of the recipient.But this time it is very unusual, the three big bosses!Li Er is clearly telling those elites: Don't you think that being a Marquis is too important?Well, let's make an earl the head office, shall we?But don't think of any crooked thoughts to win over and attack, I'm sure about this person!You move and try!

Li Er was afraid that someone would provoke the relationship between Wei Zheng and Jin Guitang, and even dragged Wei Zheng into the Xuanzhi people, so that Jin Yu could inherit Wei Zheng's favor.But they didn't know that Jin Yu felt that Wei Zheng was defending himself after Cheng Yaojin said so, and didn't mean to hold grudges.

Changsun Wuji is also a fine person, and he has seen through the truth in it, so when he introduced it, he only talked about title and seniority, regardless of official position, which brought the four of them closer.

"The eldest grandson Bobo won the award, which makes my nephew feel ashamed." Jin Yu hurriedly bowed and saluted, expressing that he didn't dare to do it.This eldest grandson Wuji is a great man, Jin Yu really didn't expect Li Er to treat him so favorably, and even let his most trusted younger brother to issue an edict to him.

"It's a hot day, don't be too polite. I heard that Gui Tang made some kind of ice. It tastes good. The old man is shy and begged for a few." Fang Xuanling wiped off his sweat and said, although the two met. Several times, but there is no sign of seeing outsiders.

"Being old and disrespectful, be careful that I will give you a book tomorrow!" Wei Zheng made a joke rarely, but the smile on his face was not so comfortable, probably because of the habit of picking people up with a straight face all day long.

"Did you have fewer lice when you joined the old man? If there are too many lice, it doesn't itch. Go ahead and stop eating if you have the ability." These old guys hang out in the court all day long, and Fang Xuanling of course can see that Wei Zheng is doing it. Just kidding, don't take it seriously.

"My nephew is rude, my nephew is rude." Where has Jin Yu seen this scene before?Hurry up and beg for mercy, I hope these big guys don't make a scene in their own house, as for going out```What do you want to do! "Uncles, please move, it will be cooler in the room."

"Just use it here, Gui Tang also take a look at this reward, don't miss anything, the old man can't tell." Wei Zheng ignored the two colleagues and walked to Jin Yu's reclining chair sat down.

"You are so old, you are still so wicked, you only care about yourself." Changsun Wuji pointed at Wei Zheng and scolded with a smile.

"Oh, I can't change it. Brother Wuji and Xuanling, please be patient." Wei Zheng didn't take Changsun Wuji's words to heart, picked up Jinyu's folding fan, and flashed it.

Yang Ying was still sharp-eyed, she pointed to the recliner at Chen Rui just now, and before the conversation was over, Chen Rui carried the recliner over, panting, along with a large bowl of shaved ice.

"I've heard Cheng Dazui brag about how comfortable this bamboo chair is to lie on all day long. If you don't give it to him, I will feel the difference today." Changsun Wuji said as he lay down and took a bowl of shaved ice. After taking a bite, he praised: "Cool! Refreshing!"

Seeing the leisurely appearance of the two colleagues on the reclining chair, Fang Xuanling smiled wryly: "Oh! I'm a step too late. People who are suffering, worry about your life. It seems that the handover of rewards can only be done by the old man?"

"So, Brother Lao Xuanling." Wei Zheng swallowed a mouthful of shaved ice, and said very "kindly".

"Xuanchengxian brother said that since Xuanling virtuous brother recommended himself so spontaneously, the old man is not good at giving in, so please bother me." Changsun Wuji also said very "kindly" lying on the bamboo chair.

"You don't need to count, how can my nephew not trust you uncles?" Jin Yu really saw this kind of scene for the first time, and he definitely wouldn't let Fang Xuanling hand it over in a hot day, and it was a reward from Li Er, so he didn't believe someone Dare to steal it?Besides, if there are account books, just let the housekeeper go.

"Well, it's better for Gui Tang to be considerate of the old man, so the old man won't refuse, let them take over." Fang Xuanling actually knew that going by himself was just a show, and since the master said so, he didn't insist. Down the donkey, he went over and lay down.

"What's this smell? How can it be so strange?" Changsun Wuji asked with a sharp nose, sniffing the faint smell of roast duck in the air.

"Roast duck, my nephew just put it in today, and I will ask you uncles to comment on it later." It was a coincidence this time. After thinking about it, Jin Yu decided to open a tavern. It would not be a pity to put his cooking skills on display. , so let’s try the roast duck first to see if it can be mass-produced directly in the oven.Jin Yu saw that Yang Ying was standing here feeling uncomfortable, the weather was hot, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her pretty face, so he took the opportunity to push Yang Ying away and said: "My lady, go and see if the baking is done, I'm going to give it to you uncles." Dine."

Seeing the color of her husband, Yang Ying glanced back gratefully, gave a blessing to the adults, and went down.

"But the fairy duck that the old god Yuan praised so much?" Because Yuan Tiangang told Du Ruhui's fortune at the beginning, and said that Jin Yu's talent is now highly valued by Li Er, so Wei Zheng respectfully called him an old fairy instead of a Taoist priest. .

"Exactly."

"Haha, let me just tell you, we old men are lucky, you still don't believe me, look, let the old man say it right? Don't forget to gamble with the old man later." Fang Xuanling joked to the two colleagues next to him road.

"Forget it, forget it. I'm making an exception today. It's not good to keep a stern face all day without any minor flaws. It's interesting to let those people catch some flaws." Wei Zheng gave Jin Yu face very much, but in fact it was nothing more than Convey your kindness, and the words also have the meaning of teaching Jinyu the way of being a human being.

"Thank Uncle Wei for his guidance, and my nephew also thanked Uncle Wei for his protection a few days ago." Jin Yu was not stupid, and understood the meaning of Wei Zheng's words, and thanked Wei Zheng for his protection in the court hall.

"Look, the old man is on the right track again, right? The old man will understand even Gui Tang. Now the betting money is double." Fang Xuanling pointed to Jinyu and said.

"Cheng Dazui must have said it, haha." Changsun Wuji was still thinking about what to do later and reconciling the matter, but it seemed unnecessary.

"It's you old fat man who is arranging the old man again!" Qin Cheng and the two were well-informed, and came to congratulate Jin Yu on his promotion just in time for the meal.Hearing Changsun Wuji's loud voice, Cheng Yaojin howled outside, and when he entered the door and saw how comfortable the three of them were, he dragged Jin Yu and shouted: "Stinky boy, take your father-in-law to eat, starve to death!" Three immortals!"

The three got up and saluted Qin Qiong, smiled at each other, and followed Cheng Yaojin to eat.
