Chapter 491: Temperance

After the three of them had a ghost and chatted a few words, Wang Yuan resigned and went to the festival to make the yamen wait for the decree, and there were many meritorious personnel involved in the holy decree commendation, Wang Yuan needed to summon them to receive the decree collectively, but there was also a lot of work.

After Wang Yuan took people away, Luo Xizao couldn't help but scold: "This dog thing is obviously deliberate." But I don't believe it, there is a huge city of Chengdu, an important town in the southwest with a population of 500,000 or 600,000, but there is not even a place where we can stay. It's a terrible thing. ”

Wang Ji said with a gloomy face: "Of course it's not nothing, it's just that he deliberately teased us." Luo Yushi, but there is no need to worry about him. Again, a dying person has nothing to do with him. Let them prepare some food, and I will wait for breakfast and then go to announce the decree. ”

Luo Xixiao said coldly: "Okay, let him jump for a day." ”

Wang Ji turned around and went back to the back house, Luo Xixiao beckoned gently, and under the back porch of the hall, eight soldiers in forbidden army uniforms quickly entered the hall.

"Have you seen it clearly? The person just now was Wang Yuan, who was the target this time. See clearly, don't recognize the wrong person. Luo Xixiao said in a deep voice.

These eight people are the Eight Tigers of Xiangguo Mansion who follow Luo Xizao, and the burly and tall one is the big tiger Chen Taikui. Although Chen Taikui practiced hard kung fu, he was not a person with developed limbs and a simple mind, otherwise he would not have become the head of the Ten Tigers.

"Luo Yushi, don't worry, my brothers only need to look at people, this guy is already imprinted in our bones. Today, we will find out his residence and activity trajectory clearly, and when the time comes, Luo Yushi will give an order, and my brother will cut off his head. Chen Taikui said in a deep voice.

Luo Xixiao nodded and said, "Okay, be careful about everything, find out in secret, don't startle the snake." He didn't know that danger was coming, and if anyone disturbed him before he acted, I would have his head. ”

Chen Taikui arched his hand and said: "Luo Yushi, rest assured, my brothers and I are here on the orders of Xiangguo, and we will definitely complete the errand." And this guy also has a personal vendetta with us, and we are waiting to kill him to avenge Brother Nie and Brother Tian, we will be careful. ”

Luo Xizao nodded and said, "It's good if you understand, then let's go our separate ways." ”

The eight tigers bowed in unison, and Luo Xi took his hands and strode away.

……

The Jiannan Dao Jiedu made the yamen hall full of people, and dozens of officials of Jiannan Dao were all present, and more than a dozen meritorious generals who accompanied Wang Yuan's army to the Nanzhao were all standing under the hall in full armor, all with a smile on their faces, because they knew that today was also a good day for them to be rewarded. Some of the officials of Jiannan Province around them looked at them with envy, most of the awards this time were military attachΓ©s, and some civil officials could only watch the ceremony sourly.

As the time approached, the sound of hooves trampled on the Yamen Square, and more than 200 cavalry of the Southern Ya Praetorian Guards galloped from the street, and Wang Ji and Luo Xizao were surrounded in the right. The noisy talking in the hall of the yamen immediately stopped, and everyone craned their necks to look at the two Qincha who came majestically and the Nanya forbidden army with bright armor and extraordinary weapons.

Wang Ji and Luo Xizao got off the horse, Wang Ji took the brocade box containing the holy decree from the hand of the attendant, raised his right hand high above his head, and Luo Xizao on the side held a red tray in his hand, and a red silk wrapped in the square thing. The two strode towards the yamen, and hundreds of personal guards followed behind them, setting up sentry posts all the way to guard the yamen. The remaining more than 100 guards scattered around, and several entrances to the Jiedu Yamen Square were set up on guards.

"Wang Shangshu, the minister of the Qin Mission, and the Imperial Shi Tailuo Yushi, the minister of the Qin Mission, are here to pass the decree on the mission of His Majesty the Tang Dynasty!" A close official shouted.

In the hall of the Yamen, Wang Yuan led all the officials to greet each other, and made way for a passage on both sides, Wang Ji and Luo Xizao strode in, and dozens of guards behind them also rushed in, followed the two to the bottom of the plaque in the main hall, and the surrounding hands were solemn and vigilant, full of pomp and circumstance.

"Holy Decree! Jiannan Jiedu's deputy envoy Wang Yuan and the following civil and military officials received the order. Wang Gong held up the brocade box and shouted.

Wang Yuan led dozens of officials to kneel on the ground, shouting long live Your Majesty, and waiting for the announcement.

Wang Ji opened the brocade box, took out the holy decree and slowly unfolded it, and preached loudly: "The towering Tang Dynasty, the prestige is far and wide, the heroes are clear, and the four sides are divided." Today, I am happy to hear that the deputy envoy of Jiannan Daojiedu, the general Wang Yuan, led the Tang Jiannan Xiong soldiers, sent thousands of miles of troops, stepped on the barbarian clan, and defeated the Nanzhao barbarians with the momentum of thunder. Pacify the traitors, Mingde is meritorious, sacrifice the prisoner Taimiao, and highlight the minister's festival. Since I have heard it, I am all inspired and delighted. I commended his merits, aimed to enter the Jiannan Festival, and awarded the Jiannan Province to settle the interview envoy, and gave the Shuangjing Double Festival to take charge of the military and political strategy of the Jiannan Province. He was awarded the rank of general of Huaihua, the title of Marquis of the founding of the country, and the honor of the Shanghu Army. The reward is 100,000 yuan, and the silk is 100 horses. 500 households were sealed. This purpose! ”

A large list of rewards and titles, from official positions to lordships to rewards for money and food, is the glory and dignity of being a local festival envoy. In the Tang Dynasty, the position of the envoy of the ten major festivals, although Jiannan Dao is one of the smaller soldiers and horses and the smaller place under its jurisdiction, its glory is no different from other festivals.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long." Wang Yuan's heart can't suppress the excitement, after struggling so far, he can finally have a pivotal position in Datang, and finally be able to justifiably monopolize the military, political and judicial power of Jiannan Province, and have a small territory where he can settle down, think about how difficult it is.

"Honor the festival guard. The knots make the great seal. Wang Ji said solemnly.

Luo Xixiao stepped forward to deliver the tray in his hand, and Wang Ji took the Quartet wrapped in red silk on the plate and handed it to Wang Yuan. It was the great seal of the heavy Jiannan Jiedu envoy, and it was a symbol of power.

A delicate festival made of a copper leaf was handed over to Wang Yuan, this thing is called the festival, which is a token of the emperor's grant of local festivals. Then two door flags, a dragon and tiger flag, two dragon head spears, two leopard tail spears, this is a guard of honor. After becoming a festival envoy, he will be rewarded with a special reward and killed by a special festival. The line is to build a festival, and the tree is six. Everywhere he went, he was majestic and murderous. As the so-called: Luo Guangting, Ge Collar Autumn Frost, this is the glory and majesty of the envoy of the Tang Festival.

Wang Yuan personally received these gifts that symbolized the status of the festival envoy one by one, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. Every time he took it, he shouted thank you. In the past, Wang Yuan always thought that the Tang Dynasty etiquette was cumbersome, but this time Wang Yuan hoped that it would be more cumbersome, hoping that this glorious moment would be longer, so that he could deeply remember today.

The officials silently watched Wang Yuan receive the order to receive the seal and receive the honor guard, the flag and other things, and they also sighed in their hearts. This gentleman is not yet twenty years old, this should be the youngest festival envoy since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it is really hard to imagine that he has become a high-powered festival envoy at such a young age.

When this gentleman arrived in Jiannan, everyone from top to bottom thought it was a joke, and it was a joke to expect a scribe who could dance and write to turn the tide of the battle. However, the facts taught them to be impressed by Wang Yuan, who quickly reversed the defeat, did not taste a defeat along the way, and within a few months, he waved his army to the capital of Nanzhao, beating Nanzhao to his knees and begging for mercy. Proven his abilities with facts. Now no one will doubt that this person has the ability to protect the peace of the southwest of the Tang Dynasty.

The holy decree has not yet been read, and the rewards for meritorious personnel below Wang Yuan are still continuing, and the list of meritorious generals reported by Wang Yuan has slipped away, and most of them have been responded to and satisfied.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Enter the original Jiannan Army marching Sima Song Jiangong Jiannan soldiers and horses to make a post, reward 10,000 yuan, add the four products of the loyal general, add the founding of the country, and the captain of the light military school. Li Mi, the governor of Jiannan Province, was the governor of Nanchuan, and he was also the post of Sima of the Jiannan Jiedu March, and he was added to the title of the founding uncle, and the rank of Huaihua Zhonglang under the fourth grade...... Liu Jun, the general of Jindingyuan, was the marching judge of the Jiannan Army, and was added to the rank of General of Dezhong Lang from the fourth grade, awarded the Captain of the Light Car, and added the Viscount of the founding of the country. Liu Dehai, the general of the cavalry, was the general of Huaihua Lang, and was awarded the post of staff officer of the Jiannan Jiedu march, and the general Wei Guangzhong Mingwei, the general of the Jiannan Army, was awarded the post of staff officer of the Jiannan march. Add...... Add...... Add ......"

A large list of commendations was read, and all the generals who participated in the conquest of Nanzhao were rewarded, and several people in the logistics civilian positions were also rewarded and promoted. Everyone was beaming with joy and contentment, and their mouths bloomed one by one.

Finally, after the reading of the holy decree, Wang Jie's mouth was dry when he read it, and out of politeness, he smiled and said to Wang Yuan and the others: "Congratulations to all of you, the emperor's grace is magnificent, and the grace of heaven is grand." ”

Wang Yuan bowed his hand and saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty Longen, there is nothing to repay, just do your best." The two Qincha have worked hard, sit down, and serve tea! Today, we will prepare a banquet in Zhang Yilou in the city, let's sit down for a while and then go to the banquet, and invite the two Qincha to enjoy the light. Both of you have worked hard. ”

Everyone sat down, tea was brewed, and the atmosphere seemed much more harmonious.

"Wang Deputy Jiedu, oh no, it's time to call you Wang Jiedu. With such a young age, there are such achievements, which is really enviable. Wang Jie envoy, congratulations again. Wang said with a smile after tea.

Wang Yuan smiled and thanked him, and what he saw in their eyes was not only envy, but also jealousy and hatred.

"That's the case, this time Luo Yushi and I came, in addition to announcing the decree, there is also a mission, at this time the will has been announced, I think it is time to inform Wang Jiedu of the arrangements for the future."

"Oh? Do the two Qincha have another mission? But I don't know what the mission is. Wang Yuan smiled.
