Chapter 290: Exchange
That night, Gu Shengchao stayed at the Yongfu Inn.
Ma Guanshan waited for him not to return, and went to the inn to look for him, and only after learning the situation did he go back with confidence.
On the second day, Gu Shengchao accompanied Yan Yifan to the early dynasty, and the emperor rewarded him with the title of Marquis of Xiaoyao, and said that in the future, he would always have good relations with the Dawu Dynasty, and there would be no conflict between generations.
The emperor asked Gu Shengchao what else he wanted, and he stepped forward and said, "When I first came to Yunshang City to look for Your Majesty, it was a person named Ran Dengjia in the Yang family's noodle restaurant not far from Yunqi Palace who risked his life to tell him, and only then did he have the later experience, I hope Your Majesty will treat this person well."
"Write it down, find this person and reward him." As the emperor spoke, the living man not far away wrote down every word he said on paper.
Then there is the departure and stay of Yunqi Palace, after everyone's deliberation and the emperor's intentions, Shui Linglong saved the saint and made great contributions, and she originally took over the position of head of Yunqi Palace. In view of the fact that she can't be found at present, I will hold it for a few days, and if there is still no one to be seen, I will completely seal up the Yunqi Palace, and divide the property of the Yunqi Palace and give it to all the meritorious officials.
Back at the inn, Gu Shengchao hurriedly wrote down briefly how he came to the Xileng Kingdom, sent it out of the Xileng Kingdom through the channel of Baixianzhuang, and sent it to the emperor of the Dawu Dynasty through the post station.
Even if he was fast, it would take about two months to receive a reply, and when he had nothing to do, he and Ma Guanshan mobilized Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju and others to search all over Yunshang City, but there was still no news of Shui Linglong. Within a few days, the imperial court sent someone to really seal up the Yunqi Palace, and the once prominent sect ceased to exist.
A few families are happy and a few are sad, and many pavilion elders and elders in Yunqi Palace definitely don't want this, so their interests will be lost, and the days in the future will be very different from before.
However, many heroes who supported the emperor's accession to the throne were eager to see the seizure of Yunqi Palace, so that they could all get a piece of the pie and get benefits.
Baixianzhuang and Zhennan Wang contributed the most and received the most rewards, and the rest of the personnel were rewarded for their merits and deeds, and everyone had a share.
Ran Dengjia verified that the key news was indeed that he told Gu Shengchao, and it happened that there was a restaurant in Yunqi Palace near the Yang family's noodle restaurant, so he rewarded him, and the court witnessed the handover of all the documents.
Looking at the title deed in his hand, Ran Dengjia couldn't believe everything in front of him, and immediately bowed down to Gu Shengchao and kowtowed to thank him.
"Brother Ran can't help it." Gu Shengchao helped him up, "The younger brother is also a gesture, this is what the eldest brother deserves."
Maguan Shanzui quickly told Fang Ju that Yang Qianhui bought a sumptuous wine and food to celebrate Ran Dengjia after learning about it, and everyone drank in the rewarded restaurant, which was used as a stove for the new house by the way.
Jiang Wan had a big belly that was inconvenient, and she wanted to rest after eating a few bites of food, but suddenly she had a labor pain in her abdomen, and the blood that flowed out of *** flowed down her calf.
"Oh, my sister-in-law is about to give birth, I saw a midwife deliver in Zhennanguan." Fang Ju stepped forward to support Jiang Wan.
Ran Dengjia hurriedly ran out: "I made an appointment with a midwife, and I'll pick her up now."
Everyone hurriedly cleaned up and settled Jiang Wan to rest in the private room on the side. Not long after, the midwife arrived, and when she heard that Fang Ju had experienced a midwife, she left her to tell the rest of the people to leave, and closed the door.
Ran Dengjia was most worried, rubbing his hands uneasily outside the door, turning around in a trance.
In less than an hour, a crisp cry came from the private room, and the midwife opened the door and walked out excitedly: "Mother and son are safe, congratulations to the lord for having a noble son."
Ran Dengjia hurriedly stuffed the reward to the midwife: "We don't know how to raise children, and we bother the old people to teach us."
"Well, I see that you don't have any elders around to help, so I'll tell you some precautions." The midwife led Ran Dengjia into the house and left after a long time.
Everyone said hello to Ran Dengjia, but he knelt down for everyone and kowtowed three heads respectfully, so frightened that everyone hurriedly helped him up.
Ran Dengjia said with tears in his eyes: "My sister and Wan Mei have not come this way, everyone can see it, you don't dislike the two of us, when we are friends, I really can't repay it, I have to thank you for Wan Mei."
Yang Qianhui said sincerely: "I would definitely not feel it in the past, but through the experience of the past few years, I have matured a lot and empathized
can understand the hardships of Brother Ran. My sister-in-law has just given birth, and it will be inconvenient to hire someone too hastily, so let's do it, there are also old mothers in my army, Fang Ju will go back and find a few people to come over now, and wait for Brother Ran to find the right person."
"No problem, I'll go now." Fang Ju is leaving, and Ma Guanshan will definitely accompany him.
Fortunately, after the new emperor ascended the throne, the curfew was lifted, and the sunset fell on the West Mountain, Ma Guanshan drove the carriage and brought three old mothers to come, and Fang Ju rode a horse to follow.
The old mother is experienced and nimble, and there are enough private rooms in the restaurant for them to live, so they can simply clean up.
Yang Qianhui left a silver ticket of two hundred taels before leaving, Ran Dengjia shirked it, she said angrily: "You just said that we are friends, and if you don't accept it, you look down on us. This time, our Zhennan Wang's army has gained a lot, which is a drop in the bucket, and Brother Ran can take it. To tell you the truth, in a few days, the Shentu Department will send us more silver, and there will be too much to spend, so Brother Ran won't push back."
Speaking of the Shentu Department, Gu Shengchao remembered the note that Shen Tuhong wrote for him, and said with a smile: "If you are cheap, you will not take advantage of it, I still have the receipt written by Shen Tuhong here, and I can knock him on a bamboo bar when the time comes."
"There is money to earn together, and wealth to be made together." Yang Qianhui and Gu Shengchao looked at each other and laughed.
Gu Shengchao found that after several years of training, Yang Qianhui has changed from the original daughter who didn't know anything to a capable city.
After settling down Ran Dengjia, Gu Shengchao and his party returned to the inn to rest.
The new emperor ascended the throne, and the king of Zhennan, as the prince of the country, must come to the capital to meet the saint and express his loyalty, and by the way, he took Shentu Hong over and asked for a ransom from the Shentu Ministry.
The Shentu Department was also helpless, and the full set of equipment of the three thousand iron cavalry, including the future heir of the Shentu Department, were in the hands of the King of Zhennan and had to be relented.
Tasting the sweetness of the iron cavalry in the war, the king of Zhennan detained 500 sets of iron cavalry equipment for his own use, and the Shentu Department did not dare to disobey.
The king of Zhennan personally led the army to escort Shentu Hong and a complete set of iron cavalry armor to the border, and the Shentu Department on the opposite side had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw that Shentu Hongsheng was not tortured, someone immediately spoke: "Thanks to the king of Zhennan for sending our son home, you will first send someone to check, and if you confirm that it is correct, you will pay the money with one hand and release the person with the other."
Ma Guanshan led a small team of people to inspect it, and a total of twelve carriages were filled with gold and silver silk, which were priceless. Just when the two sides were about to hand over the money with one hand and release the people with the other, someone from the Zhennan King's side shouted:
"Stop, I have something to say, Shen Tuhong still owes me a hundred taels of gold and a thousand taels of silver, and you can't just exchange it in a mess."
This shout made Shen Tuhong, who was originally a tour of the mountains and rivers, startled, and a cold sweat broke out.
