Chapter 162: Reward

At night, Cuixiang Building.

In the most famous restaurant in Xiangzhou City, there are talented people from all over Huguang.

And, of course, a well-known princess.

Famous people from all over Xiangzhou, under the leadership of the city lord Wu Yiliu, came to accompany them.

After a few days of cultivation, Yang Ye's body has recovered as before, and his spirit has improved a lot.

Sitting next to him were Ouyang Zheng, the dean of the Xiuwen Academy, and Tang Jingtian, the superintendent of Xiangzhou.

The guests at this table are all people with special status.

Like Wu Yiliu, Chen Xiaohong, Bai Jinxun and others.

And people like Tang Fanfan, who are close to Yang Ye, can only sit in other positions.

Cai Xiaoyan and Wang Yiwen did not come, they were not used to such an occasion.

What's more, they have also seen Yang Ye today, and when tonight's celebration is over, Yang Ye will naturally go to them.

For the first time, Xiangzhou won the first place in the Thanksgiving Competition, and there was such a well-known genius in the country, so it is natural to celebrate.

Bai Jinxun was proud of his students, and all day long, he smiled and wrinkled his face, needless to say, the relief in his heart.

The more Tang Jingtian looked at Yang Ye, the more he liked it, and he couldn't wait to let him go to the Tang Mansion tomorrow to propose his relatives in front of so many people.

Lao Xu of Cuixiang Lou also felt that there was light on his face, and when he saw a talented man from other places asking questions, he wanted to tell Yang Ye about the poems he had written here.

won the admiration of those talents, and Fang was still interested in going downstairs to continue adding dishes.

Yang Ye's achievements are not only his personal achievements, but also the achievements of the entire Xiangzhou.

As a native of Xiangzhou, Lao Xu naturally felt extremely honored, so he decided to eat and drink at half price tonight.

The hall on the first floor is full of celebrities from Xiangzhou.

On the second floor, there are Han Muwan and other talented women from other places, and Wu Yiliu and others.

A group of people talked and laughed, and ate happily.

After three rounds of drinking, Wu Yiliu stood up under the urging of Tang Jingtian's eyes, arched his hand towards Han Muwan and the others with a smile on his face, and said: "Today is my happy day in Xiangzhou, thank you friends for coming to congratulate, you are friends of Yang Ye, and naturally you are also friends of our Xiangzhou people." Yang Ye was able to win the first place in the Thanksgiving Contest this time, and thank you for your commitment. You are all talented people and talented women with a literary name in Huguang, this time is my honor to come to Xiangzhou, I hope you will eat well, drink well, and play well tonight. What is needed, although to us it is. ”

Wang Zichen and the others hurriedly stood up and saluted in return, and said a few words modestly.

Sun Xuemei couldn't help but say: "City Lord Wu, since today is your happy day in Xiangzhou, it is so lively, shouldn't you let Yang Gongzi compose a poem to add interest?"

"Yes, yes, I can say that I admire Brother Yang's talent, and I hope that Brother Yang will not hesitate to give advice. ”

Wei Wen also hurriedly stood up and arched his hand.

Wang Zichen said with a smile: "City Lord Wu doesn't know, in fact, on the way back, we all want to ask Brother Yang for advice, but unfortunately Brother Yang was unwell at that time, and we didn't dare to disturb." Now taking advantage of tonight's big day, I hope that Brother Yang can give me a solution to my hunger. ”

Chen Xiaohong also said a little sourly: "I heard that he can contain a literary atmosphere when he writes a poem casually, such a genius, it's a pity not to see it with your own eyes." ”

When everyone saw that the princess and others personally took the lead in letting Yang Ye compose poems, they also coaxed.

Wu Yiliu had expected this, smiled, and arched his hand: "Thanks to everyone's love, Yang Ye's poem must be done." However, before composing the poem, Wu wants to announce that our Xiangzhou will reward Yang Ye for winning the first place this time. ”

Speaking of this, he smiled slightly, and said in a slightly deep tone: "You may not know that Yang Ye, classmate Yang Ye, has been pitiful since he was a child, has no father and mother, and only has an elderly grandmother who lives with him at home. Not long ago, because of a fire, his grandmother also died, and now he is even more helpless, without a single relative, not even a place to live. If he hadn't been taken in by a teacher from the academy, he would probably have been sleeping on the streets. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked in their hearts, and looked at Yang Ye with some sympathy, they couldn't imagine that this demonic genius would have such a miserable life experience.

Han Muwan felt even more pain in her heart, and muttered, "It turns out that he is so pitiful." ”

Tang Fanfan next to him suddenly turned red when he heard "If it weren't for the teachers of the academy to take him in", he suddenly turned red and said secretly: It turns out that even the city lord knows about it, and it seems that the dean and they would have known it a long time ago.

"This time, Yang Ye won glory for our entire Xiangzhou, and also made meritorious contributions to the country, made a national anthem, and was enshrined by His Majesty. ”

"Our Xiangzhou, as his hometown, although poor, will never be stingy. ”

"This time, after the discussion between Wu and Mr. Ouyang, Master Tang and others, it was unanimously decided to award Yang Ye a Hou Mansion, ten maids, ten guards, and ten slaves. In addition to the marquis's income, we also decided to allocate him a piece of land outside the city, so that he can have a certain income every year and improve his life. From this year onwards, he will be exempted from all fees for his schooling, and he will be hired as an honorary teacher of the Faculty of Letters. ”

Wu Yiliu said with a smile on his face, and everyone nodded again and again.

Tang Jingtian saw that he had not been able to get to the point, so he kicked his feet hard under the table, gritted his teeth and urged: "Get married!"

"Ahem......"

Wu Yiliu glanced at Tang Jingtian's anxious appearance, couldn't help laughing, and said loudly: "There is another important thing, I want to tell you that Yang Ye is now a Marquis of Xiang, with meritorious deeds, and is personally commended by the emperor." From today on, in this Xiangzhou, the Yang family can be regarded as a big family, and the descendants of their Yang family, if nothing else, will also be hereditary marquis, glorifying their ancestors. Therefore, in view of the fact that Yang Ye is now alone, I declare as the lord of the city that I will give Yang Ye the right to accept the retainers and servants of the Yang family, and give two women, one Wen and one Wu, as Yang Ye's wives and concubines, so as to extend the descendants of the Yang family. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Tang Jingtian couldn't wait to give up his hand, and said with a happy face: "The city lord is wise." ”

Ouyang Zheng and the others also nodded again and again: "The gift of the city lord can be described as extremely compliant, but the emperor may want to give a woman at that time, I don't know how to arrange it?"

Tang Jingtian said with a smile: "Mr. Ouyang, don't worry, what Your Majesty gives is generally a newly selected woman in the palace, not a noble family, as a concubine, it's fine." What's more, Yang Ye has already decided to marry, and his wife has been determined, His Majesty will not blame. ”

Ouyang Zheng twisted his beard and smiled: "That's good, that's good, I hope that in a few years, the Yang family of Xianghou will be able to prosper." When the time comes, our Xiangzhou will be regarded as a stain. ”

Bai Jinxun sat opposite Yang Ye, and seeing that he didn't stand up to thank him at this time, and there didn't seem to be a happy look on his face, he couldn't help but whisper: "Yang Ye, you are now a marquis, these rewards are all rules, and they have long been decided." Now that so many people are watching, you don't want to make the city lord ugly. ”

Ouyang Zheng also said: "Whether you like these rewards or not, you have to accept them, and Your Majesty will personally reward them when the time comes." Our Xia country is in a key place, there is a war every year, the country is sparsely populated, there are not many soldiers, and His Majesty has always encouraged us to have more children. As a marquis, you have a wife and concubine, and you have added men, and you have contributed to the country like you, and it is your duty to do so. ”
