Chapter 41 Returning Home
Ye Zhiqiu dragged his seriously injured body and left silently, except for a few medical officers who had been instructed in advance, not too many people paid attention to him, and the few people looked at his bleak back when he left, their eyes looked into the distance, and their thoughts drifted farther away.
Ye Zhiqiu was indeed defeated, and Bu Yihou, who is now King Chen, did live up to expectations and won the other party lightly. But many people ignore a problem, after all, he is older than Ye Zhiqiu, half a generation higher than him, and there must be a few people of his generation waiting for him in Zhongzhou in the future. What's more, in a few years, if Ye Zhiqiu's kendo is successful, I am afraid that he will be able to catch up with the older generation of masters, and by then, I am afraid that there will be no one in Dongtu to compete with, and hearing the other party's previous tone, Zhongzhou seems to have several strengths comparable to it, which is indeed not good news.
Most people were immersed in the joy of victory, they were too miserable by Ye Zhiqiu before, and they lost all their face, and some unscrupulous people just wanted to taunt him, but they found that they had disappeared without knowing when, so they had to turn their eyes to His Royal Highness King Chen.
"Your Majesty has a decree, and the top of the other five halls, Ji Yan, Gu Xunfang, Lin Xincheng, and Li Yifei, come to the stage to accept the canonization-" An old eunuch shouted in a long voice.
Several people got up to the stage, and the most eye-catching person on the field at this moment was not Chen Fang, but Ji Yan, why, just because he alone occupied the top of the two halls, this is a rare thing in the world, and since the establishment of the academy, there are few who can monopolize the top two.
The four of them came to Chen Fang's side and saluted His Majesty the Emperor at the same time. Since the establishment of the academy, His Majesty the reigning emperor has issued a decree that the disciples of the academy can not bow down when they see it, which is not only a respect for the academy, but also shows that in this world where strength is respected, the imperial power has little binding force on some powerful cultivators.
Ji Yan looked at the man sitting on the throne in front of him, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, not angry but mighty, with the momentum of a natural superior.
"Lin Xincheng, the leader of the chess hall, learned chess at the age of three, entered the Tao with chess at the age of eight, concentrated at the age of seventeen, and was already a rare opponent at the age of twenty. ”
"Your Majesty praises falsely, and the ministers are terrified. "Lin Xincheng Road.
"Gu Xunfang, the top of the painting hall, the first few **** paintings of the mountains and rivers in the picture I have also seen, a few strokes but can reveal the magnificent meaning, Gu Lao Hall Master has a high evaluation of you, said that you will be able to reach the "eye" realm in time, then you can jump into the dragon gate, soar into the sky, to fight the name of the painting armor. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment. Gu Xunfang said.
"Li Yifei, the top of the palace, I heard that you tamed that golden eagle? It's really commendable, it seems that my Han is going to have a transcendent knight again, hahahaha——。 ”
When Li Yifei heard this, he replied: "Chen will live up to expectations. ”
Then, the emperor set his eyes on Ji Yan, looking at this young man, he seemed to think of another person back then.
"Ji Yan, one person has two armors, and he was also admitted to the Sword Palace, not bad, not bad-"
Listening to His Majesty the Emperor's appreciation, Ji Yan was very excited in his heart, that is the emperor, he actually praised Lao Tzu so much, I was always ridiculed by them for my poor qualifications before, and now it is finally time for the salted fish to turn over, and I don't know what the reward will be.
Ji Yan pulled himself back from his fantasy and replied respectfully: "The minister is just a moment of luck, and he really deserves to be praised like this." ”
"Aiqing is humble when she says this, the academy is not a place where you can enter by luck, it is said that you played a tune in the music hall, shocking the four, the lord of the music hall personally named you as a disciple, I don't know much about music and rhythm, but I have read the test paper of your book hall, and the last poem is indeed very emotional, but I am very curious, the artistic conception of that poem is so deep that the lord of the country cannot understand it, could it be that you are the prince of the former dynasty who has died?"
After Ji Yan heard it, he couldn't help but admire the profound knowledge of His Majesty the Emperor, his poem was a copy of the Yu beauty of Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty in his previous life.
After thinking about it for a while, I had a saying in my heart: "Back to Your Majesty, the grass people are just a cloth cloth, where will it be the prince of the fallen country, just because he was also guided by a famous teacher when he was young, and he likes to study history. With people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses, and with history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, so the heart has an understanding and a feeling. Ji Yan flickered, saying that he was about to believe it.
"Hahaha——, said well, what Aiqing said is very true, throughout the ages, dynasties have changed, even if they are as strong as the Great Qin Empire, they have disappeared into the dust of history, if you want to survive forever, you need to use history as a mirror, and know how to replace. ”
"Zhuqing is my Dongtu Junjie, and it is also the hope of my Han Dynasty in the future. His Majesty the Emperor said with appreciation. He glanced at King Chen, and then said, "The future of Dongtu needs to be guarded by you, but now, you should also be rewarded. ”
After that, an old eunuch stepped forward with a holy decree and said: "Your Majesty has a decree, special seal Jiyan, Li Yifei, Lin Xincheng, Gu Xunfang are first-class dukes, give a mansion, reward 10,000 taels of gold, Qin this——"
"Thank you, Your Majesty—" the men replied.
After the reward was completed, His Majesty the Emperor returned to the palace, and the ministers were ready to leave, and a special official began to be responsible for issuing rewards to several people.
"Wang, Marquis, Jue, Duke, this is the fourth-order hereditary official position of the Han Dynasty, when Chen Fang led the troops to fight, established miraculous feats at the border pass, started from the foot soldiers, and gradually added the Duke to the Lord, a few years ago, after the **** was awarded by His Majesty as the Marquis of Buyi, and also became the youngest Marquis in history, until today, he has become the only king with a different surname, and has almost gotten the highest honor that can be awarded, and now Ji Yan is only more than 20 years old, and he is actually ranked as a first-class duke, this reward is not heavy.
"Gold, 10,000 taels?" At this moment, Ji Yan's heart was even more excited than learning that he had won the top spot of the two halls. "Such a large sum of money, how should I spend it, by the way, first go and buy the little broken shop of the proprietress to see if they dare to call me in the future, and then go to Juxian Debt to have a good meal, and finally go to Zuixianglou to see and understand, hahaha-" He couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at" Next to him, Yang Jiu'er looked at Ji Yan who was smiling lewdly on the side, and couldn't help asking: "The smile is so obscene, could it be that you are thinking of something bad." ”
Ji Yan's fantasy was interrupted, so he retracted his thoughts and said: "How is it possible, as the top of the two halls of the academy, my character has naturally been investigated, and I was just thinking about how to spend this money just now, ten thousand taels of gold." ”
"Yes, yes, there is also a credit to me, if it weren't for the fact that I helped you choose the right opponent in the Sword Palace, you don't know whether you are dead or alive now, and you can still get a reward, I don't care, you give me at least half of it." Yang Jiu'er's big eyes were straight and bone-turning, and his eyes were as bright as a hungry wolf that had seen meat.
"I said, why are you so obsessed with money, you are also a lady of everyone, and you still care about my little money?" Ji Yan teased with a smile, and then said: "The leech you picked doesn't seem to be the weakest, but I almost hung up." ”
"Hmph, stingy ghost, if you don't give it, you won't give it, please treat me to a good meal. ”
"That's fine, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. Ji Yan responded cheerfully.
After a while, someone gave Ji Yan the title deed of the mansion and a token, and said that the golden ticket would be delivered to the mansion within three days.
"I'm going to go back and have a look, I can only talk about it in a few days," Ji Yan said. Yang Jiu'er understood that he was going back, and said: "Now that you are an official disciple of the academy and have been named a first-class duke, I am afraid that no one in this Kyoto City will dare to touch you at will, and it is nothing to go back now." ”
After the two said goodbye, many housekeeper-like characters handed over invitations, but they were all rejected by Ji Yan, and he was now like an arrow, and he just wanted to go back quickly.
has been in this world for so long, except for Linxi Village, Ji Yan has been in the shop for the longest time, and has the most intimate relationship with the proprietress and the buddy, Xiao Li, and the guys, and he has long regarded it as his home, and he can't wait to put on his wings and fly back at this moment.
Because his injuries had not healed, he had to hire a carriage again, this time he was very bold to give the coachman two taels of silver, after all, he would be rich in a few days, he secretly thought, he is now a good home.
