Chapter 201 : Your father is still scolding
At dawn the next day, Yang Gonggong, who was beside Xiao Deyong, came to the Ming Palace, escorted by several Praetorian Guards, to deliver the decree.
Probably because he was tossed enough last time, or maybe he was mentioned by someone, Gonggong Yang came to the Ming Palace, although he was still a little arrogant, but he was far less arrogant than the last time.
As always, even if Gonggong Yang carried Xiao Deyong's holy decree, he still failed to meet Xiao Zhihan smoothly.
Hearing the subordinates of the Ming Palace's mansion saying that Xiao Zhihan had not yet gotten up, Yang Gonggong, who had drunk a belly of tea, almost wanted to go to Mufeng Yuan to call Xiao Zhihan to get up in person. But suddenly remembering the words that Xiao Deyong had told him before leaving the palace, Gonggong Yang endured the anger in his heart.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Xiao Zhihan took Yan Xi to be late.
"His Royal Highness King Ming, our family came here today with the emperor's will."
As soon as Yang Gonggong saw Xiao Zhihan, his eyes lit up, and he immediately took the holy decree and blocked it in front of Xiao Zhihan and Yan Xi. Regardless of the displeasure on Xiao Zhihan's face, Yang Gonggong quickly read the content of the holy decree.
"The emperor has a decree: King Xiao of the Ming Dynasty has made meritorious contributions to the disaster relief in Hanping City, and has given ten East Pearls, ten pairs of jade, 100 pieces of imperial brocade, 100 acres of fertile land, and 100,000 taels of gold. In addition, the king of Ming was calm and calm in this plague, and he made a good plan, and specially promoted the king of Ming to the general of the city defense battalion, commanding 10,000 city defense troops and guarding the capital. His Royal Highness King Ming, take the order. ”
After reading the contents of the holy decree, Yang Gonggong raised his head to look at Xiao Zhihan, who had not even bent his knees, pulled a smile on his face, and handed over the bright yellow holy decree.
Xiao Zhihan stretched out his hand to take the holy decree from Yang Gonggong's hand, threw it casually, and threw it into the hands of Feiying who followed behind.
Seeing Xiao Zhihan disdain the holy decree so much, a flash of anger flashed on Gonggong Yang's face.
Hmph, you are a king, our family will definitely go to the emperor to join you!
"Anything else?"
Seeing Gonggong Yang looking at him with a bit of calculation in his eyes, Xiao Zhihan asked with a calm face.
"Now that the emperor's will has been delivered, our family will retire first."
Hearing Xiao Zhihan's voice, Yang Gonggong, who was fantasizing, was excited, raised his head and met Xiao Zhihan's dark face, and immediately said goodbye.
After Father-in-law Yang left, Yan Xi looked at the rewards left by Father-in-law Yang, and his eyes lit up.
Yan Xi picked up a crystal clear Dongzhu and looked at it intently.
This is a good thing, if it is placed in another world, it will definitely cause those local tyrants to rob like crazy.
Yan Xi admired the reward given by Xiao Deyong, and said to Xiao Zhihan jokingly.
"Xiao Zhihan, you, the emperor's father, can still wake up after scolding. No, the reward you deserve will not fall, and you will be given the title of general of the city defense battalion. ”
When he said this, Yan Xi's face was full of smiles, but a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Huh."
Hearing Yan Xi's words, Xiao Zhi laughed coldly.
As far as Xiao Deyong's virtue is concerned, he will be willing to be so generous to him, a disaster star and sacrifice! There must be demons when things go wrong, and it seems that some people can't sit still and are ready to do something to him.
"By the way, what about the things I brought back from Heijo? Where did you put it all for me? ”
Yan Xi saw that Xiao Zhihan knew what he knew, so he didn't say anything more. Turning his head to look at Steward Chen, who happened to come over, he immediately asked.
The things she got back from Pingcheng, in addition to the specialties sent by the people of Pingcheng, there were also some things she had spent time developing before. Anyway, she has nothing to do lately, and she just perfects the formation in Mufeng Garden.
When that formation is completely perfected, Mufeng Yuan at night will be a veritable dead land. When the time comes, those people who come by him have great ability, and they will definitely let him have no return.
"The girl's things are all in the meditation pavilion. If the girl needs it, let the maid in the palace take you there. ”
From the mouths of Liang Zhao and those people, he heard about the power of the formation in Mu Fengyuan, and Steward Chen liked Yan Xi more and more. At this time, hearing Yan Xi mention the things she brought back from Pingcheng, Steward Chen immediately replied with a smile.
"What do you want those things for?"
Hearing Yan Xi's words, the corners of Xiao Zhihan's mouth twitched.
He had heard this woman say before that she was going to resell the specialties given by the people of Pingcheng. When she mentions those things now, is it really going to resell them to make money?
"At that time, I was going to sell those things and earn some money to support you!"
As soon as he saw Xiao Zhihan's expression, Yan Xi knew what he was thinking, and he didn't explain, so he simply followed Xiao Zhihan's words.
"This king can afford to raise you!"
This sentence came out of Xiao Zhihan's mouth through gritted teeth.
"Yes, these Dongzhu, jade, Yujin, Liangtian, etc., which your emperor father just rewarded you, can also be sold. If these are sold, they will be a lot of money. ”
Hearing Xiao Zhihan's words, Yan Xi did not refute it, moved his gaze to the rewards left by Yang Gonggong, and nodded. He looked like he was going to be doing something, and he was calculating how to sell these things for money.
The people waiting in the front hall saw Yan Xi's careful appearance, and they all pursed their lips and snickered.
Miss Yan is too powerful, she dares to talk to the prince like this!
Even Steward Chen looked at Yan Xi's eyes, and there was a little more smile.
The prince has suffered a lot since he was a child, and he holds everything in his heart, and he never shows half a point on his face. However, this Yan girl always has a way to provoke the emotions of the prince and let him vent the anger in his heart appropriately.
"Yan Xi!"
Seeing Yan Xi seriously calculating how many rewards were sold at the right price, Xiao Zhihan's face darkened a lot. Stared at Yan Xi and shouted angrily!
"Lord, someone from the Prince's Mansion has come."
At this moment, a guard guarding the main gate walked over and interrupted what Xiao Zhihan was about to say.
"Nope!"
Hearing this Ding's words, Xiao Zhihan rewarded the person outside the door without hesitation.
"Lord, the people in the Prince's Mansion said that they came to pay back Miss Yan."
Seeing that Xiao Zhihan didn't want to think about it, the guard sent him away, and turned around to go to the main gate to reply to the person waiting outside the door. But he didn't take two steps, and then remembered the explanation of the man outside the door.
"Pay it back? Let him in. ”
Hearing the words of this guard, Yan Xi's eyes immediately moved away from the rewards, staring directly at the guard who came to pass the word, and said without caring about the image at all.
"Lord Wang?"
Although he received Yan Xi's order, the guard still looked at Xiao Zhihan and waited for Xiao Zhihan's answer.
"Not yet!"
Seeing the guard looking at him, Xiao Zhihan didn't wrinkle, waved his hand, and asked the guard to do what Yan Xi said.
The guard turned back to the door, opened it, and searched the man's body carefully before leading him to the antechamber.
"His Royal Highness King Ming, this is ......"
The person who came was a familiar face, and when he saw Xiao Zhihan, he smiled with three points. When he saw Yan Xi beside Xiao Zhihan, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
It turned out to be her!
When he was in Pingcheng at that time, Fang Qi had never directly confronted Yan Xi, although he knew her name, he didn't know what she looked like. In the palace last night, Yan Xi was dressed as a man, and his behavior was no different from that of a man, so Fang Qi did not doubt Yan Xi's identity at all.
Now that he saw Yan Xi's woman dressed up, and thought of those things in Pingcheng, Fang Qi immediately matched the name of the woman in front of him with Yan Xi.
Although he recognized Yan Xi, in order not to expose himself, Fang Qi still pretended not to know Yan Xi and looked at Yan Xi.
"Didn't you say you'd come to pay me back?"
Seeing the light circulating in Fang Qi's eyes, Yan Xi sneered in his heart.
This person's eyes clearly recognized her identity, but he deliberately pretended not to know! It seems that Pingcheng's assassination has nothing to do with this person!
"It turns out that Your Excellency is a girl, but this is Fang Mou's clumsy eyes, and he didn't even recognize it."
Hearing Yan Xi's voice, Fang Qi made an expression of sudden realization, and said polite words in his mouth.
"What the prince owes to this girl, can you bring it?"
Yan Xi ignored Fang Qi's politeness and went straight to the point.
"It's nature. Come in, all of you! ”
Seeing that Yan Xi was so straightforward, Fang Qi's face stiffened for a moment. However, Fang Qi has been by Xiao Chenyu's side for many years, and he is not incompetent, so he reacted immediately. Turning towards the door, Fang Qi commanded to the few prince's palace maids waiting outside the door.
As soon as Fang Qi's words fell, several maids from the Prince's Mansion walked in. Each of them carried a tray in their hands, and on the tray was the things that Yan Xi had mentioned in the IOU.
Ten east pearls, ten pairs of jade, 100,000 taels of gold.
No more, no less, no less on those trays.
100,000 taels of gold is not a small amount, so what is placed on the tray is a special gold ticket made by the bank. With this golden ticket, gold can be withdrawn from any branch of the bank. In addition to this, this gold can also be exchanged for silver.
"The prince is trustworthy, oh, this is an IOU, you bring it back to your prince."
Yan Xi checked the things on those trays, and after confirming that they were correct, he asked the subordinates of the Ming Wangfu to take all those things. Then, Yan Xi took out a wrinkled IOU from his arms and handed it to Fang Qi's hand.
Seeing the IOU handed over by Yan Xi, the corners of Fang Qi's eyes twitched.
This Yan Xi, even if he saw so many ministers of civil and military affairs present, he was sure that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not repay the debt, and he would not take this IOU so seriously!
Just as he was about to say a few more polite words, and then lead the topic to his intention this time, Fang Qi was once again caught off guard by Yan Xi's direct beating.
"The money has been returned, so you can go back if you have nothing to do!"
Yan Xi looked at Fang Qi with an innocent face, as if she said this just because she was straightforward.
"Lord Wang, let's go back too."
After the other party issued the eviction order, Yan Xi took a step forward, took Xiao Zhihan's arm, and was about to go in the direction of Mu Fengyuan.
"Lord Wang, please stay!"
Fang Qi, who originally planned to explain his intention in a roundabout way, was disrupted by Yan Xi's words, and he no longer hid it, and after stopping Xiao Zhihan with a voice, he explained his intention this time.
"His Royal Highness King Ming, Fang Mou came this time, in addition to paying the medical fee for this girl for His Royal Highness the Prince, there is also one more thing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thanked the prince for his hard work in Pingcheng for disaster relief, and specially held a banquet in the prince's mansion tomorrow. ”
