A few people whispered, and after a while, Lord Liu walked out of the back room, holding a yellow silk scroll in both hands and placing it on his chest, and stood still in front of the heroes and said to them: "The holy decree of long live has come down a long time ago, and it has been placed here for a few days, just waiting for you to receive it." ”

When a few people saw the holy decree, they knelt down in an orderly manner, waiting to hear that the Lord of Long Live would reward them with something good.

Lord Liu cleared his throat and began to recite respectfully: "The emperor of Fengtian carried the edict that since I ascended the throne, I have ruled the world with benevolence and righteousness, rewarded and punished the public, and sought the virtuous without slacking off. Remembering Yin Xuesong, Xiao Lie, etc., Su Huai is loyal, generous to save the country, and the ambition of serving Lingran, the special mission of Lord Liu in the imperial history, exercises the right to reward on behalf of me, and hopes that you will be in peace with your duties and report to the court forever. Yin Xuesong, the eldest disciple of the Pear Flower Sect, awarded the history of the commander-in-chief of the Liao Duwei Town, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, a set of royal flower robes, and a famous horse. Xiao Lie, the owner of Yizhuang, awarded the deputy commander of Liaoduwei in the town, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, a set of royal flower robes, and a famous horse. Shaohua Mountain Nangong Junzhe, awarded the history of the commander-in-chief of the Jinyi Guard of the Guandong Province, rewarded 1,000 taels of silver, a set of royal flower robes, and a famous horse. Shaohua Mountain Zhao Haiquan, awarded the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard of Guandong Province, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, a set of royal robes, and a famous horse. Fuhu Temple Zhenxiu Zen Master, seen in the monks, if there is a desire to repay, Yin Xuesong can be appointed on my behalf. The rest of the vacant posts were appointed by the commanders of the various departments according to their abilities. The Changbai Mountain Pear Flower School is the first sect in Kanto Province, and the head Luo Feiying is the leader of the Kanto Alliance, which is specially designed to cultivate talents for Zhenliao Duwei, lead the thirteen cities and thirteen factions, and assist Zhenliao Duwei and Jinyiwei to maintain order in Kanto Province. The Fuhu Temple in the Ice City is a Zhenjiang Temple in Guandong Province, which has been supported by the imperial court for generations. Set Hecheng as the general government of the town of Liao, and can recruit soldiers and horses by themselves to ensure the safety of the place. Thanks!"

Everyone bowed to the mountain three times and shouted long live, and Yin Xuesong stepped forward to take the holy decree and read: "Thank you, Lord Longen!"

Lord Liu said to everyone: "Let's all get up and take our seats, this time it's okay, we are all colleagues in the same hall, and we will inevitably trouble you in the future." ”

After hearing the reward, none of the people were full of joy, they were all worried, Yin Xuesong looked at everyone, it was estimated that they were all one idea, and said to Lord Liu: "My lord, we don't have anyone to be an official, and we are not an official, can you please tell Banzai and let him take back his fate!" Hearing him say this, everyone nodded at the same time.

"Do you want to disobey the decree, which is a sin of deceit, and you will be beheaded. Master Liu twisted his beard and said slowly.

"We are grass people, and thanks to the favor of the saints, we can ascend to heaven in one step. But we know our own abilities, and I'm afraid that we won't be able to do this kind of errand. Yin Cedar's face was embarrassed.

"No one is born to be an official, as long as you follow the law and follow your heart, I have already registered you with the Ministry of War, you can go back to take office now, and I will arrange for someone to send you the reward, just do what the Holy God has just ordered." ”

"But......" Yin Xuesong was about to say something, but was stopped by Lord Liu with a wave of his hand.

"I know what you mean, cultivators shouldn't be involved in government and opposition affairs, but the current situation doesn't allow you to think like that. Long live the intentions of the Lord, I think you should all know. Don't let me down on my good intentions, go, go back to office. If you don't understand it now, you will figure it out in a few days, and if you don't understand it, you can come to me, I'm telling you. ”

"This ......" looked at the people around him, Nangong Junzhe nodded, meaning that he should agree first, the hero will not suffer the immediate loss, and he will make plans when he returns to his house if there is anything. Helplessly, Yin Xuesong had to agree: "Okay, thank you for your kindness, I will definitely not live up to your good intentions." After three more bows, he got up and was about to go out.

"Wait a minute. Lord Liu stopped them: "Wait a minute, I think of one more thing, we will deliver the official documents of the imperial court reward on schedule, but these thirteen sects on the Guandong Road, should you notify them, after all, you are also counted as mixed in the same road, and it is better for you to say it in private than the official to come forward." ”

"Yes, let's go back and make arrangements, so you don't have to bother. Yin Xuesong saw that Lord Liu had nothing else to say, so he took everyone out of Liu's mansion. Nangong Junzhe said to him: "Don't say anything first, let's hurry back to Jiangjiabao, when we get there, we will go to our own territory, there are many eyes and ears here, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary trouble." ”

Everyone didn't dare to delay, Xiao Lie took out the Tuling Bead and everyone returned to Jiangjiabao. Entering the Jiang Family Inn, Jiang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "You guys are going so fast this time, I still wonder if you are going to come back tomorrow, and now it's so late that I can't prepare wine and food for you! ”

"There's Mrs. Lao, make us some tea first and send it to my room, except for you and Miss Mu, no one is allowed to approach, we have important things to discuss." Nangong Junzhe's face was solemn.

Jiang Xiaoyu was originally full of smiles, but when he saw Nangong Junzhe and the brothers all having the same expression, he knew that there must be something big, so he didn't say anything: "Okay, I'll prepare, you go first, I'll let Zihui bring you tea." ”

When he came to Nangong Junzhe's room, closed the door, and found a place to sit down, no one spoke first. When Mu Zihui brought the tea over, she was taken aback by their momentum, put down the tea and turned around and ran out, not staying in the house for a moment. Qiu Feixu closed the door again, turned his back and said, "What do you think about today's incident?"

Nangong Junzhe said angrily: "I'll just say it, this emperor didn't hold back any good fart, he threw our brothers into the fire pit with a holy decree." ”

"What if I don't obey the holy decree, can he really arrest me all over the world?" Xiao Lie questioned.

"Yes, definitely, you don't want to think about it, what Lord Liu said today, it is obvious that the emperor was going to kill us all at the beginning, and it was he who saved us, if you don't obey the decree now, not only you, but the entire Kanto Province may suffer." Yin Xuesong retorted.

"Co-author, we're in a dilemma now. I really don't believe it, just a few of us, plus so many people from the Pear Blossom Sect, and so many people from Fuhu Temple, how can we not resist? I never thought of being an official, and I didn't mean to be an official, so why did I have to give him my life if he said a word. The more Xiao Lie spoke, the louder his voice became.

"What are you yelling at me, aren't you all trying to figure it out? "Yin Xuesong's temper was also provoked. The two of them quarreled with red faces, and finally Xu Huanxin pulled Yin Xuesong, and Qiu Feixu pulled Xiao Lie to control the situation: "Okay, you two should say a few words, the big guy is very chaotic now, let's calm down first, and talk about it later." ”

Xing Hao walked up to Xiao Lie and said to him: "Brother Xiao, don't get excited, in fact, I understand what Senior Brother meant, he is worried, the other factions are not convinced, and they will deliberately make trouble, and at that time, we will be passive." If we want to do what you mean, not only will we be in danger, but several other sects will also be implicated for no reason, and then we will have to bear an eternal infamy. ”

"I'm not a child, can I not understand this truth, originally we were doing things in line with the fundamentals of chivalry and righteousness, and now we can be hired by the imperial court to show our skills, and with the imperial court as the backstage, we are not afraid of anything. However, this is also related to the issue of harmony in Kanto Province, and I also thought about it for a long time before I came up with such a solution. Xiao Lie explained: "We are all good brothers who were born and died together, and I don't want everyone to be in any danger, but if you don't do this, is there any good idea?"

Zhen Xiu, who has been talking little, took the initiative to speak at this time: "Lord Xiao Shi's words are different, and the poor monks have a different opinion, so you might as well listen to it." ”

When everyone's eyes were focused on him, he continued: "The emperor's intention is to let us contain the balance of the Kanto Province, and if we act according to the will of the saint, we can also thoroughly investigate the traitors in the Kanto Province. The people who arise from right and wrong must have bad intentions, not a person who keeps to himself, Kanto Road is originally a normal place, and the various sects are nothing more than their own destiny, and now they can not only increase their officials and become knights, but also show their talents, most of them will not object. The remaining small group of people are the main targets of our attacks, and if we take them, Kanto will be truly harmonious. Isn't that the case for chivalry, as an official, the local affairs can be known at the first time, as long as they are treated fairly, the result is the same, and chivalrous people must focus on the overall situation. ”

After Zhen Xiu finished speaking, he looked at everyone again, but when he saw that he didn't speak, he didn't say anything more. At this time, Jiang Xiaoyu and Mu Zihui opened the door with wine and food, Jiang Xiaoyu entered the house and said: "I heard you arguing downstairs, if you have anything to say, they are all their own brothers, and there is nothing that cannot be said." It's so late, eat the meal first, and then talk about what you have to say. I also think about it carefully by eating, and I don't talk about eating, so don't talk about eating. ”

In the imperial study of the imperial palace, the emperor said to the big eunuch beside him: "Do you think there is anything wrong with the arrangement of the affairs of the Kanto Province?"

The big eunuch bent down and replied respectfully: "The decision of the saint has always been the most holy, according to the old slave, this is the most appropriate way, the rivers and lakes are in the rivers and lakes, let's wait to see the good show." ”
