Chapter 273 Father and Daughter Missed Each
Other Originally, the Imperial Master was going to come with them.
But yesterday, when he learned that the Immortal from Sanqing Temple had returned from his travels, the Imperial Master didn't care about anything else and rode a fast horse to lead his men away overnight.
He only left the carriage with Ali to go to Dalui Village to announce the good news.
Ali retracted his gaze, shrugged his shoulders and muttered softly.
"Originally, the Imperial Master was only one step away from seeing the little girl in the painting, but unfortunately he went to Sanqing Temple and didn't have the chance to see her."
"Sanqing Temple?" Qingxuan, who was standing beside him, nudged him with his elbow, unable to suppress his curiosity, "Yesterday I wanted to ask, what kind of opportunity did the Taoist master have that allowed the Imperial Master to meet him in person."
Ali leaned close to his ear, "It's a long story."
"I heard that it was that Taoist master who said that our little princess had the fate of a fairy! So the Imperial Master must meet this person in person to verify the identity of the little princess."
In addition, Mu Yihan had also found some clues and discovered that there were many discrepancies between Shen Wan's death and what the Shen family said.
Although after Mu Yihan came to the door, the Shen family had replaced all the servants in the family in order to cover up the truth, and those who knew more even killed two of them.
But the goose leaves traces when it passes, and many clues cannot be completely covered up.
After this great victory, Mu Yihan originally planned to stay in Yuncheng for a few more days so that he could investigate the Shen family in person. After
Ali and the others announced the imperial edict, they were also waiting to go to Sanqing Temple to meet with Mu Yihan.
Although the Jiang family was happy, they could not say much and had to thank the emperor quickly.
"Mother, the envoy is still waiting there. We can't be so happy that we forget the etiquette." Jiang Fengze reminded Xiao Nuobao with his arms around her.
Unlike the previous dynasty, since the imperial master came to power, the Xuanyuan royal family has become a decoration. The imperial edict has been issued by the imperial master himself and is also stamped with the imperial master's seal.
"Yes, mother knows." Feng wiped the tears of joy from her eyes.
She stood at the front and led the whole village to receive the imperial edict and thank the emperor together.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The villagers were so happy that they were incoherent. They knelt down and said all kinds of things.
"Your Majesty's grace is so great!"
"We thank you too, we all thank you!"
"Thank you, Master. I bring my eight generations of ancestors to thank you together!"
Ali felt the villagers' simplicity and laughed softly, but he didn't blame them too much.
He walked up to tease Xiao Nuobao, pinched her soft little hand, as if he couldn't pinch it enough, and finally kissed her twice.
"Do you still recognize me, brother? I am the inner palace messenger who came to your village last time." Ali narrowed his eyes.
Xiao Nuobao had recognized him a long time ago, and raised his feet excitedly, "Ah, Shitzhe Guoguo, Nuobao remembers you!"
Ali couldn't help laughing, and tapped her nose and said, "I'm glad you still remember me."
Looking at this fair and clean little baby who looked like a round pearl, Ali couldn't help thinking that if the little princess in the Imperial Master's family could be as cute as her, the Imperial Master would surely be able to show more fatherly love.
Thinking of this, Ali couldn't help sighing, and didn't know what the situation was at Sanqing Temple.
He couldn't stay here any longer, so he said goodbye to Xiao Nuobao and took the black armored army to find the Imperial Master.
Looking at Ali's back, Xiao Nuobao held his finger in his mouth and murmured in a baby voice, "I will definitely eat this pot again in the future."
Jiang Fengze didn't hear his sister's words clearly, and was anxious to go home to celebrate. So he carried her into the house amid the laughter of the villagers. As
soon as they got home, Feng pulled Fengze and Xiao Lanyi and insisted that they take off their clothes to see if they were injured before they could rest assured.
Jiang Fengnian and Jiang Fenghu were very excited and surrounded them, wanting to hear about the war.
"Third brother, the rumor in the city is that you were attacked. You deliberately came up with a self-torture trick, right? Tell us now?"
Jiang Fengze just showed his back to his mother, and then he said with great energy, "Of course, to be honest, this was the plan of the Grand Master!"
Soon, Jiang Fengze and Xiao Lanyi took turns "performing" as if they were setting up a stage, and they described the story of going into battle and killing the enemy vividly.
Xiao Nuobao lay on the third brother's lap, clapping his hands after listening to a few words, and was really a cheering little spectator.
But of course, the two of them tacitly did not tell us about the most thrilling and dangerous experiences, for fear that their family members would worry.
Fenghu and the others listened with great interest, and their blood was boiling.
After all, fighting to defend the country is a natural attraction for men. However,
there are exceptions, such as Xiao Fengmiao.
Fengmiao is not very interested in killing enemies, but is looking forward to the reward for his third brother.
He saw an opportunity, hugged his third brother's thigh, and asked, "Third brother, what is Guanwaihou? Is it a high position? Is it a lot of money?"
Jiang Fengze patted his head and smiled helplessly, "You learn to count and manage every day. I think you are obsessed with money and only care about salary."
Sun Chunxue moved over and sat down, and couldn't help asking, "Don't say Fengmiao is curious, I want to know too, third brother, eldest sister-in-law doesn't know what Guanwaihou is, tell us what it is."
Feng and Li Qiqiao heard it and hurriedly stretched their ears. Although they didn't say it, they were itching in their hearts.
After all, this is a title!
Title!
The ancestors of the Jiang family were all farmers, and there were not even a few educated people. As for being rewarded for military merit, it was unprecedented!
Jiang Fengze touched his head and smiled, "Actually, I don't know much. I just got the reward and didn't have time to ask in detail."
Xiao Lanyi patted his shoulder and laughed, "You rough guy, you don't even know this."
"The Marquis of Guanwai is specially given to people with military merit. There is no rent, so it is a nominal position. However, you can receive a salary of 800 taels every year, which is considered to be decent." Xiao Lanyi smiled.
Although compared with those hereditary dukes and marquises, the Marquis of Guanwai is still far behind, and can only be regarded as the lowest level among the titles.
But it is rare to be awarded this position in one battle, looking at the entire Nanji Kingdom.
What's more, the whole Yuncheng had never had a marquis outside the city before, but now there are two of them. If they were someone with an outspoken personality, they would have no problem walking around the city like a big shot!
Sun Chunxue happily touched her belly, her big face almost smiling like a dog's tail, "I don't do anything in a year, and the court can give me a salary of 800 taels just by lying down. Our third brother is really promising!"
Soon, her child will be born, and he will have a Guanwai Hou as an uncle. Just thinking about it makes her feel proud.
"Hehe, the third brother can get 300 taels of salary silver every year as a commander, plus the 800 taels of Guanwai Hou, that's 1,100 taels!" Feng Miao calculated very quickly, and laughed when he mentioned the money.
Seeing this little guy like a money-grubber, Fengze touched his head and promised, "Just wait, little guy, when the New Year comes, Third Brother will definitely give you more money!"
Feng's mouth was also grinning, but she was not laughing because of the reward, but because she could finally put her mind at ease and have a good meal with the whole family!
"Let's cook a good meal tonight. Dean Wei is here too. Let's call Madam Xiao and the others over quickly. Let's welcome the two children together and get rid of the bloody atmosphere on the battlefield!"
