Chapter 251: One is Higher Than One
Zong Lu patiently waited for the ministers to release all the thoughts in his heart, and then elaborated on what happened last night, not only the deeds of Zhang Xuan who easily killed the eighteen big demons, but also the plot of the big demons to dominate the country of Fulao, and finally said: "That Zhang Daxia is supernatural, not only rescued me, but also turned the tide, saved the entire Fulao Empire, and made immortal feats, how should we repay him?" ”
When the people heard this, they began to talk about it one after another.
Hearing that the demons were trying to become the masters of the Fulao country, they were shocked and couldn't help but be a little afraid. If the plans of the great demons succeed, then the country of Fulao will become a demon country, and the decline of human beings and the prosperity of monsters are inevitable. At that time, the human condition will be tragic and tragic, and it is difficult to imagine how tragic the ending will be.
After discussing for a while and sighing for a while, Tang Yin opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, in this way, the reward given to Zhang Xuan by the monarch of the Bataan Kingdom is not too excessive. In the opinion of the ministers, we might as well refer to the practice of the Bataan Kingdom and give Zhang Xuan an appropriate reward, and wait for it. ”
Hearing this, Zong Lu reprimanded: "Hmph, Zhang Daxia is a master of the world, and he is bent on destroying demons for the sake of human beings from perishing, do you think he covets that reward?" If he wanted to, the entire Crouching Tiger Planet would be his world, and it would be easy to overthrow our court, but he never wanted to. For such a virtuous gentleman, we must be reciprocated with virtue, how can we just fool the past with perfunctory practices such as waiting and descending? ”
Dazhu Guozong Yan came out of the class and said: "What Your Majesty said is very true! For a virtuous gentleman and a model of humanity like Zhang Xuan, it is impossible to reward him too much. The reward is rich, which shows our great power. ”
Zong Yan is Zong Lu's brother, and he is an important minister above 10,000 people under one person, and when he says this, it is equivalent to helping Zong Lu set the tone for how to reward Zhang Xuan, and other courtiers naturally can't openly raise objections.
"Well, what I said is very much in line with my words!" Zong Lu said, "The intention of the king of Bataan to send envoys to the court is very obvious, it is to show the strength of Bataan's rich newspaper Xuan's kindness. We are also a big country, and we must not lose to it in terms of quantity, and we must further upgrade and reward Zhang Xuan, so that the monarch of Bataan will be embarrassed, and let the envoys go back and slap him in the face! ”
After that, he went to invite Zhang Xuan and the envoy of the Bataan State, Luda.
After the meal, Luda followed the officials of Honglu Temple to come in first, and was walking in front of His Majesty, when he heard the sound of footsteps from behind, he turned his head to look, and saw that it was Zhang Xuan who was walking proudly in the company of Honglu Temple, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and prostrated and said: "Luda, the official of the Cardinal Office of the Bataan State, knocked on the general of Tongtianwu and the great general Wanfu Jin'an!" ”
A group of courtiers couldn't help but be stunned when they saw that Luda was respectful to Zhang Xuan. Seeing that Zhang Xuan had the posture of a jade tree facing the wind, not angry and self-imposing, he couldn't help but praise: "What a young man with extraordinary bearing, he is really a dragon and phoenix among people!" ”
But I heard Zhang Xuan say to Luda: "Get up!" The great demon of the country of Fulao is raging, and you have some courage to come at the risk of your life. ”
Luda stood up, leaned at Zhang Xuan, and said with a smile: "Where the great general is, the big demon must retreat, it is very safe, what are you afraid of!" ”
Zhang Xuan smiled at him and strode forward towards His Majesty.
Zong Lu hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Xuan's hand, and came to the throne with him, sat down with the guests, and said to the ministers: "Everyone, this is Zhang Xuan, a virtuous gentleman and a model for mankind. ”
Because of the foreshadowing of the Zong Lu brothers, the ministers were not surprised by such a title. When Ruda heard this, his jaw almost dropped in shock. The monarch of the country of Fulao Feng Zhangxuan was the Monkey King, and the generalissimo of soldiers and horses was recruited by the whole world, obviously pressing a few generals of Tongtian and Wuwu who were crowned by the monarch of the Bataan country, which not only made his face a little unbearable, but also made him unable to explain to Cangsuo after he went back.
Because, after hearing this, Cang Suo may be mad.
At this moment, Lu Daba is unwilling to be the master of Cangsuo, and Feng Zhangxuan has a higher title than the generalissimo.
Why don't he have such power, so he can only be in a hurry.
In his anxiety, Luda opened his mouth and asked: "Emperor, you have appointed my Chaotong Tianwen Wu General as the Great Sage of Monkey King and the generalissimo of the whole world, which is a high recognition of him and a small heartfelt admiration. It's just that I'm going to pass through the astronomical martial arts general's food? ”
"Hey, envoy of the Bataan Kingdom, it's better to mention the general of the Heavenly Martial Arts!" Zong Lu sneered, "I have made such a great contribution to the country of Bataan, but the monarch of your country only named him a general, it is really unreasonable, the feelings are not enough, and the pattern is not high." The food that I have eaten from the generalissimo of soldiers and horses to the Monkey King and the whole world is the emperor's salary, 20,000 pesos a year, which is much higher than your 10,000 li, right? ”
When Luda heard this, he blinked his eyes and couldn't speak, and said secretly in his heart: Oh, the hand of the monarch of the country is indeed big enough, and he actually let the general of Tongtian Tianwu eat the emperor, and my dynasty is absolutely incomparable. However, if he only seals Zhang Xuan alone and does not have Feng Zhang Xuan's old mother, then I still have to say.
But I heard Zong Lu continue: "The Monkey King of this dynasty, the mother of the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, has raised such a virtuous gentleman and a model of mankind, and is the leader among women and the bearded eyebrows among women, benefiting all mankind, in order to thank her for her kindness, she was named Mrs. Exorcism Phoenix, and she was eaten half of the emperor's fortune, with an annual salary of 10,000 pesos!" ”
Yes?
When Ruda heard this, he couldn't help but be completely dumbfounded.
This damn Zong Lu can even figure out a title like Mrs. Qifeng, which shows that he has spent a lot of thought. Moreover, what Mrs. Qifeng ate was a half-emperor Yulu, which was twice as much as the one-grade Yulu given by the Bataan Kingdom, which was a comprehensive suppression of the Bataan Kingdom, and it was not okay to disobey it.
Thinking of this, Ruda's mood became heavier and heavier, and his face became more and more gloomy.
He had been staying here all the time before, just to declare the grandeur of the Bataan monarch to the monarchs of the Fulao Kingdom, but now it seemed that this was tantamount to asking for embarrassment. Knowing this, he didn't mind slipping away quietly.
However, the progress of the matter did not stop there, and Zong Lu's next words gave him heavy blows one after another.
Zong Lu said: "This dynasty's edict to seal Zhang Xuan as the Monkey King and the generalissimo of the whole world is not a hypocrisy, but a real move. Next, this dynasty will choose a good place for feng shui in the imperial city, build the Great Sage Mansion for the Monkey King and the generalissimo of the world, and set up a merit monument in the Great Sage Mansion to declare the merits of the Monkey King and the generalissimo of the world to save the people. ”
After a pause, Zong Lu said to Tang Yin: "Bohu, there is one more thing, you are always responsible, and it will be completed within three months." ”
Tang Yin responded: "Your Majesty, if there is anything to do, you can just tell it." ”
Zong Lu said: "The deeds of the Monkey King and the generalissimo of the world who recruited the generalissimo of soldiers and horses to subdue demons are not only very exciting, but also of profound significance, and should be widely spread and passed down from generation to generation. Bohu, you are the chief scholar of this dynasty, and you are extremely knowledgeable, and from now on, you will lead a group of scholars from the Hanlin Academy to compile those deeds into a script, so that the court and folk artists can sing it everywhere. This is a meritorious thing that you have to do with your heart! ”
When Ruda heard this, his heart almost shattered into slag, his knees went limp, and he could barely stand.
What made him even more uncomfortable was that Zong Lu said this, and deliberately glanced at him, as if he didn't say this to Tang Yin but to him deliberately.
He didn't know what was going to happen next because of his confusion.
During this process, Zhang Xuan sat beside Zong Lu without saying a word, allowing Zong Lu to play freely. He knew that at this time, it was not appropriate for him to do anything, and it was better not to do it.
It wasn't until the ministers stood up to greet him at Zong Lu's suggestion that he stood up and returned the salute with a smile.
After the meeting, he calmly returned to the guest house with the calm steps he had come, without any particularly happy expression.
