Zhao Guangyi laughed, and then with a flick of his right hand, Zhao Gu immediately left with interest. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Turning around, Zhao Gu couldn't help but smile in his heart, this ancient emperor was really easy to deceive, and a few words of flattery made him unable to find the north.

I haven't used my strength yet, sir!

Although Zhao Guangyi had the intention of rewarding him before, everyone saw that he wanted to kill Zhao Gu, who knew who was true and who was false, anyway, Zhao Gu only knew that he laughed and sealed him after he said that the thunder and rain dew was Jun'en.

In fact, Zhao Gu alone with the greenhouse technology is definitely worthy of the qualification of the marquis, after all, this is an epoch-making technology, with its Great Song Dynasty, the national strength does not know how many times to multiply, just a marquis is nothing.

Of course, the marquis of the Great Song Dynasty is more than a little lower than the gold content of the Tang Dynasty, which is divided into hereditary and non-hereditary.

And Zhao Gu's position of marquis is a non-hereditary face title, as long as he hangs up one day, the court will immediately take it back.

According to Zhao Gu's knowledge, in the decades after the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it seems that only dozens of people like Zhao Pu who have made great contributions have been awarded hereditary titles, and most of the titles obtained by others are non-hereditary titles.

And Zhao Gu's knighthood, although it is not the first knighthood of Zhao Guangyi's dynasty, but it is the largest span, directly from the commoner to the marquis, only between Zhao Guangyi's thoughts, maybe he also has the purpose of encouraging other officials with this, who knows!

Returning to the pavilion where they were before, Huang Shan and Zheng Tai immediately whispered congratulations to Zhao Gu, Zhao Gu returned the courtesies of the two one by one, and the three of them sat down together.

For no other reason, it's time to start the table.

I don't know when it has become a tradition for Chinese to pull a bunch of people to rub a meal whenever there is a happy event, and this greenhouse viewing ceremony is no exception, on the various vegetables picked in the greenhouse, the chefs of the royal dining room have made many kinds of delicacies, filling the big table.

Except for Zhao Guangyi sitting alone at a table, Zhao Gu and the others were all eight people at a table, and as Zhao Guangyi opened the table, everyone was feasting, and they didn't know if the food was really so delicious, or the officials were showing off in front of the emperor.

All in all, after Zhao Gu tasted it with his own mouth, he put down his chopsticks, turned his head and dried up with the royal wine, only when his mouth was really sweet, he would barely eat a bite of food.

It can be seen from this that the cooking skills of the so-called chefs of the royal family must be very bad.

Besides, why did Zhao Gu feel that it was sweet in his mouth after drinking the wine?

That's because although there was distilled liquor in the Song Dynasty, it was mostly used for medical treatment, and I didn't hear that anyone drank it, but at this time, rice wine was popular, and the fermented rice wine was naturally sweet.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the banquet finally ended, and the viewing ceremony was also announced.

Zhao Gu was a little disappreciative in his heart, didn't you see that there were already dishes made of fresh vegetables in the Baiwei Restaurant? Although there are only radish and cabbage among these dishes, there are not many types, but many people in Beicheng have already tasted it, are these officials so excited?

And Zhao Guangyi, do you need to use these vegetables that are about to rot on the street to invite people's hearts?

But these words, Zhao Gu will not speak, following the flow of officials, Zhao Gu out of the inner courtyard, after saying hello to Li Fu, Huang Shan, Zheng Tai and other officials, Zhao Gu took the rewarded vegetables back to Baiwei Restaurant.

As soon as Zhao Gu came back with the front foot, a team of forbidden soldiers on the back foot escorted a eunuch in luxurious clothes to Baiwei Restaurant, this eunuch was not tall, about fifty years old, with a warm and sunny smile on his face, it was strange how such a smile could appear on the face of a eunuch.

Don't dare to slack off, Zhao Gu greeted him, and the eunuch coughed lightly: "Marquis Zhao, take the order." ”

Only then did Zhao Gu know that this was Zhao Guangyi's holy decree to make him a marquis, so he bowed slightly and said, "Zhao Gu took the decree." ”

The eunuch took out a holy decree stamped with the seal of the jade seal and read it.

"Under the door, the world is peaceful, only benevolence governs, and the time of the three emperors and five emperors ......."

"However, the grace of heaven is unpredictable, and there are many barren and evil misery in the world, and the people are in the midst of fire and water......."

"Today, there is Zhao Gu, a native of Zhuozhou, who is talented and intelligent, well-read, thinking hard for several months, creating the art of greenhouses, and solving the upside-down ...... of people's livelihood in the world."

"Therefore, the position of Marquis of Zhaogu is specially given for the Houhou of Zhuozhou, so as to encourage ......."

The long holy decree was obscure, and the eunuch had been reading it for a quarter of an hour before it was slowly rolled up and handed to Zhao Gu.

Although Zhao Gu liked history in later generations, the cultural heritage was different from this era, so many words could not be understood, and he could only vaguely hear part of the meaning, probably this holy decree was issued by the emperor, verified by the Zhongshu Province, and issued by the Ministry of Menxia, in order to reward Zhao Gu for inventing the greenhouse technology.

As for the title of this Zhuozhou Guhou, Zhao Gu couldn't understand it, and he didn't know whether his title was called Zhuozhou Hou, or Guogu Hou, or Zhuozhou Guhou.

When the eunuch heard Zhao Gu's question, he smiled and explained it to him.

It turned out that Zhao Guangyi had the intention to directly seal Zhao Gu as Zhuozhou, but generally the place name on the title was given together with the place, such as a certain state in the Tang Dynasty, it must have jurisdiction over the state in its title. However, Zhao Gu, the marquis, was a little unworthy of his name, and he did not have half of the land under his jurisdiction, so Zhao Guangyi added a 'valley' to the end, and obtained the name of Zhao Gu.

After listening to the explanation, Zhao Gu couldn't help but complain again, the chaotic official position and title system of the Great Song Dynasty is really speechless, all of them sound very lofty, but in fact, they don't even have the right to half a dime.

The eunuch said again: "Marquis Zhao, the emperor also said that the dignified Marquis of Song, but he needs to make a living by opening a restaurant, which is really embarrassing." Therefore, the emperor also gave you a mansion and a hundred copper coins, which will be sent to you by someone from the branch later. ”

And even a reward?

Zhao Gu couldn't help but be overjoyed, this Zhao Guangyi was finally reliable, and knew to take some practical benefits for himself.

As for Zhao Guangyi's disgrace in opening a restaurant, Zhao Gu directly chose to ignore it, how does this old hat know how profitable it is to open a restaurant, and what is there to be ashamed of making money?

After the eunuch finished explaining, he was about to leave, Zhao Gu then handed him twenty taels of silver, and said: "My father-in-law has run away, be careful, and ask my father-in-law to smile." ”

"Master Hou, this is?" The eunuch was stunned for a moment, but quickly accepted it quickly, it seems that he usually does this kind of thing.

"The miscellaneous family's name is Wang Jien, and the Hou Ye will take care of him in the future!" The eunuch said.
