Before the holy decree was read, Ye Yunyang could only continue to pile on one knee on the ground, and the eunuch continued to read expressionlessly: "Another reward of 10,000 taels of gold for encouragement, admiration!"

10,000 taels of gold, this is not a small amount, the exchange rate of gold and silver in the Han Empire is 1:10, and one tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver.

Although there is no need to spend money in the Academy of Chinese Studies, as long as you get ten credits every month, the school is responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but Ye Yunyang's concept of money has not weakened. At the beginning, in Dahuaishu Village, the family's 20 acres of fertile land and 10 acres of forest land together, the total annual income was only 30 taels of silver, which was equivalent to 3 taels of gold, not counting various expenses, 10,000 taels of gold was equal to 3,333 years of agricultural income!

In his previous life, he watched a lot of costume dramas, and he knew that as long as the eunuch said the word "Qin this", it meant that the holy decree had been recited, so he said loudly: "Student Ye Yunyang takes the decree." ”

The eunuch rolled up the holy decree, handed it to him and said, "Ye Yunyang, you have to change your name for yourself in the future, do you want Ben Hou to know?"

He nodded and said, "Ben Hou knows." ”

Dongfang Pingtai glanced at Lin Chengyin, Lin Chengyin understood, took a few steps forward and stuffed a bag containing gold ingots to the eunuch, and said with a smile: "Hard work, father-in-law, saddle horse fatigue along the way, this is a little tea money we have prepared for you." ”

The eunuch weighed his weight, and suddenly grinned: "Lin Siye is too polite, the miscellaneous family will not be hypocritical with you, before leaving, His Majesty explained, and immediately after passing the decree, he will go back to resume his life, and the miscellaneous family will have to go on the road, and after going back, he will definitely tell His Majesty the truth about your attitude." ”

Lin Chengyin hugged his fists: "There is Father-in-law Lao, and it is easy to walk all the way." ”

This is the rule of officialdom, if the eunuch is not benefited, when he goes back to restore his life, he will talk nonsense, which is likely to cause Long Yan to be displeased, and it will not be beneficial to Yunyang and Guodu Academy.

The eunuch turned to leave, and the ironclad guards who escorted him left in procession.

Monarch Chen Mingda's face sank like water, and he sneered: "Ye Yunyang, you are really a good student of our country's academy, and you are a good subject of the Han Dynasty, hum!"

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away, and his anger overflowed.

Ye Yunyang frowned, he heard something in the words of the monarch, but he didn't know why, could it be that he was jealous of being commended by the emperor?

No, although there is not a word in the holy decree about him, the king, but after all, it is the people of his country who are commended, and he should feel that his face is bright.

Besides, this matter has nothing to do with Chen Mingda, and the chapters are all written with the help of Dongfang Pingtai, and if there is no inch of merit, of course, he is not qualified to be praised together.

After all the Imperial Forest Army walked out of the gate, Dongfang Pingtai shook his head and said: "His Majesty the Emperor is really calculating, what does it mean to reward other people's things?"

Lin Chengyin nodded and said: "It's really strange, this matter smells of conspiracy, everyone has seen it, and the monarch is very angry." ”

Dongfang Yixue said a little angrily: "The emperor is deliberate, he usually calls himself the first emperor of the ages, but he didn't expect to be such a small person, he has no sincerity at all, if he doesn't want to seal it, don't seal it, the territory of the Han Empire is thousands of miles, is it not even a small county to give it to others?"

Ye Yunyang was confused, and cautiously raised his right hand and asked, "Three, can you make what you say more clearly, I don't understand." I was named a hereditary county marquis, not only are you not happy at all, but you are all worried, why on earth?"

Lin Chengyin asked rhetorically: "Let me ask you, where is your fiefdom?"

He didn't want to think about it and said: "My hometown Feng'an County, is there anything wrong?" I think this is very good, the old saying is that wealth and nobility do not return to their hometown, just like a night walk in brocade clothes, and it is a very long-faced thing to seal my hometown to me as a food town. ”

Everyone smiled bitterly, and Dongfang Pingtai explained: "You think things too simply, let me ask you whether Feng'an County belongs to the Han Dynasty or Dongping Kingdom?"

Ye Yunyang's eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly realized: "Feng'an County is the territory of Dongping Kingdom, that is, the emperor gave it to the ancestors of the monarch, but now it is given to me, isn't it a daughter and two marriages! No wonder the monarch is so angry, his own territory was given to me by the emperor as the master, no one can be happy, the emperor's head was not kicked by a donkey, what does he want to do?"

"Young man, be cautious, if what you just said reaches the ears of the emperor, you will definitely be punished for a great crime of disrespect. Lin Chengyin said earnestly.

Dongfang Pingtai's brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "The emperor has a deep meaning in doing this, it is impossible for him not to know that Feng'an County is a dependent territory of Dongping Kingdom, I heard that he has always wanted to cut down the feudal domain and realize a centralized system similar to the Great Qin Empire, but for various reasons he cannot implement it, maybe this is a signal for him to make a move to the countries." ”

At this time, a group of people walked in from the gate, all wearing the uniforms of the wizards of the Imperial Temple, led by an old man, with a chrysanthemum-flower pattern on the cuffs and neckline, representing that he was a second-level priest.

With a smile on his face, the old man said, "Brother Dongfang, brother I came uninvited, and I hope that my brother will not be surprised." ”

"Brother Guo Tu, why are you here?" Dongfang Pingtai was startled at first, rushed forward and grabbed the hand of the visitor, and said, "Why don't you say hello in advance, I will personally go to the city gate to greet you, we must have not met for ten years, right?"

Guo Tu smiled and said: "No, it's been ten years, and I came in a hurry, so I didn't send someone to inform my brother in advance, you don't mind." ”

Dongfang Pingtai said: "What is our relationship, how can I be unhappy, Brother Guo, you are a busy man, what is the matter with me?"

The two were friends when they were young, and later Dongfang Pingtai came to Dongping National Temple to serve, and Guo Tu chose the Imperial Temple. It is impossible for a second-level priest of the Imperial Temple to appear in a vassal country casually, combined with the time of his appearance, Dongfang Pingtai judged that his arrival should have something to do with Ye Yunyang.

Volleying talismans belong to witchcraft skills, and the emperor will definitely find someone to verify them, and the gathering of high-level wizards in the Imperial Temple is undoubtedly the best choice.

Guo Tu didn't hide it, and said straight to the point: "Brother, you guessed right, I'm here for this student of yours." ”

He pointed to Ye Yunyang, who had just figured out the situation with an angry look on his face, and said, "It was High Priest Huo Hong who asked me to come over to see the elite you cultivated, and the High Priest highly regarded the volley talisman very much, saying that this is the only new skill that can go down in history for thousands of years." Let me also bring a special reward to your student, in recognition of his contributions, you can choose an eighth-level elixir at random, and the high priest will refine it with his own hands. ”

The eighth-level elixir was also refined by the high priest of the Imperial Temple, and everyone was envious.

The pill is subdivided into ten grades, the sixth level and above are already rare boutiques, and they can be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver at a high price in the auction hall, the seventh level is even more remarkable, and the eighth level is rare, only master-level people have the ability to refine it, and it is said that it can bring back to life those who only have one breath left.

If you have an eighth-level pill in your hand, whether it is used to save your life in times of danger or to sell it for a lot of money, it is a very good choice.

Ye Yunyang hadn't spoken yet, Dongfang Pingtai frowned: "Brother Guo, there must be some inside story about my student's canonization, right, you tell me." ”

Guo Tu's eyes dodged: "What's the inside story, you think too much." ”

The old man's eyes widened: "Brother Guo, did you come all the way just to pass a message to High Priest Huo Hong?" Also, the emperor has already given a reward, why does the high priest give Ye Yunyang an extra reward, I don't think it's a reward at all, it should be said that compensation is more appropriate." ”

Guo Tu smiled bitterly: "My brother is still as wise as before, he can't hide anything from you, let's tell you the truth, the high priest does have an opinion on the reward given by the emperor, not that your student is not qualified to be named a county marquis, but he should not be given Feng'an County to him, what kind of reward is this, it is obviously harmful to him." ”

The old man gritted his teeth and said, "The emperor really did it on purpose, but even if he wants to cut the domain, he shouldn't use Dongping Kingdom to open the knife, the land of Dongping Kingdom, as for it?"

Guo Tu explained: "It was the suggestion of King Bingjian in the imperial history, which was put forward in public in the court, and the high priest Huo Hong tried his best to dissuade it out of the idea of protecting talents, but this method was in line with the emperor's intention to cut the domain, so his objection was not adopted. The high priest thought that the monarch of Dongping would have a grudge against Ye Yunyang, and then do something unfavorable to him, so he sent me over to show that the Imperial Temple attaches great importance to talents, which can be regarded as a deterrent to those young people. ”

Dongfang Yixue took a step forward, saluted the national capital and said, "Grandpa Guo, why did Yushi Zhongcheng make such a vicious suggestion?"

"Yi Xue has grown so big, it's really beautiful, and I don't know which lucky guy can marry you as a wife in the future. Guo Tu first praised Dongfang Yixue, and then said: "According to the high priest, when he told the emperor that the volley drawing talisman technique was feasible, all the ministers were very excited, only this Wang Bingjian had a calm face, and as soon as the emperor asked how to reward Ye Yunyang, he jumped out to give his opinion, and from beginning to end he looked like he had been prepared, and the high priest suspected that he might know about it in advance." ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, and Lin Chengyin, who was standing opposite him, said: "No, a few days ago, the academy implemented strict management, and it is impossible for the news to leak out, although Wang Bingjian is an important minister in the court, it is impossible to know in advance." ”

Dongfang Pingtai also wondered: "Yes, I wrote it with the monarch, and I sent a messenger to the imperial capital with individual wings, could it be that there was something wrong in the middle...... I remembered that Ran Chenglin was not in the academy during the days of strict management, and we always thought that he didn't know about it, and it was very likely that he left before strict management, and we ignored him. ”

Guo Tu turned his head to look at Ye Yunyang and said, "This is the founder of the volley talisman, he is indeed a young talent, and he can create new skills that change the pattern of witchcraft at a young age." At this point, it's too late to say anything, and we can only try to avoid bad things happening. Young man, what kind of pill do you want, the high priest said, as long as it is an eighth-level pill, you can choose whatever you want, and he will definitely do his best to refine it for you. ”

The Imperial Temple's approach was quite heartwarming, and in addition to coming to see Ye Yunyang, Guo Tu also had a task: to publicize that High Priest Huo Hong valued talents, and to deter some people, including the monarch of Dongping, so that they did not dare to have the idea of harming Ye Yunyang.

Dongfang Yixue turned around and returned to Ye Yunyang's side, and suggested: "You can ask for life-protecting, life-prolonging, and life-prolonging pills such as the Great Returning Pill, the Wangu Pill, and the Immortal Golden Pill, or the Nine Turning Yang Enhancement Pill, the Nine Ding Divine Pill, and other pills that improve your cultivation. ”

Ye Yunyang shook his head, he had already made a decision, and said loudly: "Priest Guo, I want an Enlightenment Pill." ”

"What?" Guo Tu was stunned: "Although the Enlightenment Pill can barely be regarded as the eighth level, it is far less good than what Yi Xue said, are you sure you want the Enlightenment Pill?"

Dongfang Pingtai's eyes widened: "Aren't you stupid, what do you want to do with the Spirit Pill, you already have the strength of Wuwu and martial arts double cultivation, and you also have the second sea of knowledge, why do you want to open the pill of the first sea of knowledge?"
