Volume 15 Chapter 47 The Feudal Territory of the Townsman (I)
The matter of Tu Shuangxiong has come to an end for the time being, and the battle in the court can be regarded as settled, and after a long tug-of-war, the reward for Hong Yu has finally come down.
Before Hong Yu participated in the horse election, the title of "township marquis" promised by the eldest prince for the emperor was finally fulfilled this time.
In addition, there is also a false position of the five products, Taixue sacrificial wine.
Daxia Taixue exists in name only, because there is a Liling Academy near Wudu, which is the holy place for the world to enter, everyone has squeezed through their avatars to enter, and no one in Taixue is willing to go.
Hong Yu, who is too learned to sacrifice wine, doesn't need to give lectures, and he can be regarded as having an official status if he hangs a position, so it will be more convenient to have anything in the future.
In addition, there is a reward of 1,000 taels of gold, which is symbolic. also added a lot of titles to him, and Hong Yu didn't remember it at all.
After the decree was issued, Grandma was still a little dissatisfied, but she also knew that this was the biggest concession that Emperor Bixia could make.
"My grandson has made such a great contribution, and the emperor is so angry. "Grandma is complaining, but grandpa is silent, he has been loyal and patriotic all his life, thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and he has not completely changed until now, and still holds a glimmer of unrealistic illusions that the Hong family can reconcile with the royal family.
However, grandma is also very happy, because Hong Yu has the title of marquis, he can stand on his own in the future, and he does not have to compete with his eldest brother Hong Lie for the inheritance of the Hong family. Although it is said that the two brothers have a deep relationship and will never turn against each other for this kind of thing, the grandmother feels that she has wronged her second grandson, and now she is happy with the best of both worlds.
Hong Xi hurriedly ran in: "Young master, the eldest prince is here." ”
Grandma stood up and snorted: "I don't want to see the royal people, Yu'er, go by yourself." ”
Hong Shengri hesitated, feeling that he always had to thank the royal family, and his grandmother took two steps and saw that he hadn't caught up yet, so she shouted with a straight face: "What are you waiting for, old thing?"
Grandpa shrunk his neck: "I'm here." ”
Hong Yu covered his mouth and snickered, and was glared at by his grandfather. Hong Yu now has his grandmother's support, can he still be afraid of you? He immediately replied with a grimace.
The eldest prince was waiting in the main hall of the Hong Mansion, Hong Yu walked in quickly, and smiled and hugged his fists: "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
The eldest prince is also very embarrassed, every time the relationship between Hong Yu and the royal family is tense, he has to stay away from Hong Yu, but the Hong family has the upper hand and needs to ease the relationship, so he has to come forward to make friends with Hong Yu. It's just that he's not the kind of person with a thick face and a black heart, and he feels embarrassed after a few times. Hong Yu's sarcastic words made him a little embarrassed.
"Hehe, Yu Shao has been proud of the spring breeze recently. ”
Hong Yu waved his hand and sat down: "I'm just tossing, is there anything wrong with Your Highness coming today?"
The eldest prince said: "My father made you a townsman, but to be honest, we are still ashamed, this townsman should have given it to you a long time ago, but... Forget it, let's not talk about it. In order to compensate you, my father said that he does not specify where your territory is, you can choose it yourself. I'm here today just to ask, what do you like?"
The eldest prince beckoned, and the accompanying little eunuch walked up with a scroll of maps and spread it out in front of the two
This is a map of the entire territory of Great Xia, and the eldest prince pointed to the map and said, "I advise you to choose Nanyue County, which is the richest." Not only is the land fertile, but everyone is in business, and tax revenues are high. You can choose some small towns on transportation hubs, which are also the size of a country's territory, but they are very rich. ”
Hong Yu looked at it, to tell the truth, he was very tempted by the words of the eldest prince.
Of course, if Hong Yu himself wants, of course he hopes that his territory is as close to Wudu as possible, but this is unrealistic. It was impossible for the emperor to allow him to have such a "state within a state" near Wudu
But just when Hong Yu set his eyes on Nanyue County and wanted to find a rich town, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind: "Choose Guangyang County." ”
Hong Yu was stunned: "Are you alive?"
Qixi Sword Spirit said angrily: "Young man, you are too impolite, and this seat will not give you an idea if you do it again." ”
Hong Yu smiled and asked, "Then tell me first, what did you ask me to choose Guangyang County for?"
"I vaguely remember that Feng Jiuxiao's Xuanbing Workshop was near there. ”
Hong Yu was taken aback: "Where is the Xuanbing Workshop?"
Qixi Sword Spirit said: "This must be seen on the spot to be found." ”
Hong Yu knew it in his heart, and asked again: "What is the benefit of you devouring the ice shoots?"
Qixi Sword Spirit diverted the topic: "Let's talk about this later, you solve the matter in front of you first." ”
The eldest prince thought that Hong Yu was pondering and considering, and he did not doubt him. After Hong Yu finished communicating with the Qixi Sword Spirit, he raised his head and said, "I understand His Highness's kindness, but I want to choose Guangyang County." ”
The eldest prince was stunned for a moment: "Guangyang County......? Oh, you're for Yun Siyan, right?"
The Yun family is in Guangyang County, and the eldest prince thought that Hong Yu was lustful, so he deliberately wanted to put the territory in Guangyang County for Yun Siyan, and he gave Hong Yu a thumbs up: "Sure enough, it is a merry seed." ”
Hong Yu was still thinking about how to explain to the eldest prince that he was going to choose Guangyang County, but this time it was a trouble-free thing, and the eldest prince helped him think of the reason.
His inscrutable smile made the eldest prince think that he had guessed correctly.
"Guangyang County is also good, although the land is barren and the trade routes are not accessible, but it is rich in minerals. Where do you want to choose?
Hong Yu said: "Can you give me some time, I want to go to Guangyang County to see it in person." ”
The eldest prince smiled ambiguously: "Of course you can, take Miss Yun with you and go back." Haha
Hong Yu shook his head secretly, and he didn't want to defend anything.
"Going out again?" Grandma was a little reluctant to let go of her grandson, Hong Yu had to explain that this trip to Guangyang County was very important to the Hong family, grandma sighed and looked at him in love: "My grandson has really grown up, he is a man, he has hills and valleys in his chest, and he is strategic." Okay, go ahead, grandma will help you guard the house.
Hong Shengri was a little dissatisfied: "I have ...... at home"
"When you see the emperor Lao'er, you know how to kneel, counting on you?"
One thing drops one thing, Hong Shengri has no temper at all when he is counted down in front of his old wife.
"You go and get ready, and before you go, go see your father. Grandma commanded.
Hong Yu hesitated, he remembered the experience of visiting his "father" with his eldest brother before the Chinese New Year.
Grandma noticed his expression and sighed slightly: "Don't blame your father, there are some things, even if you are a good one, you can't change it, alas, ......"
Hong Yu frowned, and was about to speak, but his grandmother had already spoken: "Don't ask me, if your father wants to tell you, he will tell you himself, my son has a bad temper, and I said that he will complain about my old lady at that time."
Hong Shengri was depressed on the side: "You are much better to your son than to me." ”
Hong Yu couldn't help but sigh again, one thing descends one thing, grandma is holding grandpa at home, but she is very doting on her children and grandchildren, and grandpa is the nemesis of her children and grandchildren.
Hong Yu nodded: "Okay, I'll go with my eldest brother in the afternoon." ”
Grandma said, "I'm going with you, and I haven't seen my child yet, but I haven't seen my child, alas......
Hong Shengri hesitated: "Don't be sad, no one can do anything about what happened back then." ”
Grandma looked gloomy and shook her head.
When he set off in the afternoon, Hong Lie prepared all kinds of gifts, but his grandmother took out a burden like a trick. Hong Yu opened it, and inside was a new dress. The stitches are fine, apparently sewn by the grandmother herself.
Hong Yu looked at the new clothes, and his eyes were a little sour. Grandma has already babbled up: "Your father's clothes have been made by me since I was a child, I know best how big the clothes they wear, and the clothes made by others are never so fit......"
Hong Yu held back tears: "Grandma, you are a good match"
"Then I'm also a, when a mother doesn't make clothes for her children, like words?"
Hong Yu lowered his head, what he had heard the most was "No matter how powerful I am, I am also your son", but the old lady was just the opposite, but it was even more moving.
Even if it is a good product, even if she has stood at the peak of this shijie powerhouse, she will never forget that she is still a mother, she can wipe out a city and destroy an army with her hands, but their hands still have to use needles and threads to sew a new dress for their children.
Hong Yu's throat choked, but grandma felt that it should not be a big deal, she was a little proud: "Your grandma's hands, but not only can you wave the Xuan soldiers to kill strong enemies, needlework is also very haode, grandma was also the most haode female workers in the village, your grandfather can marry me, hum, I was envious of those sons and daughters in the village at that time." ”
Hong Yu nodded again and again: "Grandson also wonders, grandma, why did you fall in love with grandpa." ”
This sycophant was clever, and grandma hugged him happily: "It's still my grandson who can speak." ”
Hong Lie smiled on the side: "Second brother, be careful, let grandpa hear your ass blooming." ”
The carriage slowly came to the door of the small Taoist temple, Hong Yu jumped out of the car and reached out to help his grandmother, grandma waved her hand, and she was more vigorous than him, Hong Yu silently used his nose, and always seemed to habitually treat his grandmother as an old man who needed to be taken care of.
Hong Lie stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, his father, who was dressed in a plain robe, opened the door, and saw the old man behind him at a glance.
He was stunned for a moment, Hong Yu saw that his eyes quickly moistened on the side, he snatched out two steps, knelt on the ground with a thud, and knocked his head down: "Mother, you came out......"
