Chapter 384 The object of envy of women(1/2)
After reporting and submitting the order, Yang Fan and Li Ji talked for a while, and it was almost time.
After the officials of the Imperial Promotion sent a letter, Yang Fan rushed to his home with the Imperial Promotion Officials.
Today, Yang Fan was indeed a little excited.
Since his rebirth, he has no ambition to be king.
If you have any ideals, at the beginning, you just want to be a landlord Laocai who is waiting to die.
The achievements we have achieved today are mainly due to the knowledge explosion of his era, mainly due to standing on the shoulders of giants, and of course, the plug-in system that is not often used.
Because of these, Yang Fan gradually realized the dream of landlords and wealth with some advanced knowledge and insights than this era.
The dream of landlord Laocai is realized, and Yang Fan feels that he can have more.
So, it gradually evolved into a little effort that he wanted to do his best for this era.
Because he wanted people of this era to know that Yang Fan had been here.
Although every passionate young man who travels through time has a dream of me, I see, and I conquer, Yang Fan does not.
At least, there is no one at the moment!
As a result, Yang Fan was still very happy when His Majesty Li Er awarded him.
The 18-year-old Marquis, who was ranked as a third-rank official in the court and the Minister of Rites of the Three Provinces and Six Ministry, Yang Fan really wanted to shout - Who else?
More importantly, there are a few beauties, guards and maids in the mansion...
Power, wealth, and beauty are all short of them, and they are a true winner in life.
Although I dare not say that there are no ones who have never been before or after, it is also extremely rare.
The journey in the future may be long and full of obstacles, but at least we have taken the first step and have a good start.
Yang Fan wanted to rush back to the mansion and celebrate this wonderful moment with his relatives, lovers and all those who support him.
Isn’t life a matter of sharing all the beauty with those who care about you and those who care about you?
At the moment of Shen, Yang Fan took the lead and led a group of personal soldiers and officials to gallop from one side of the street. The sound of horse hooves rumbled, and everyone was so powerful that they arrived at the street where the Yang Mansion was located in a blink of an eye.
But the scene Yang Fan saw made him stunned.
At this time, the street in front of the mansion had been cleaned up, and it was impossible to see that the street here was still covered in snow and muddy in the morning.
The streets were all covered with guards, servants and maids from the marquis’ mansion…
The reason for this is that today, the palace sent someone to inform us.
Yang Fan, the Marquis of Zhongyi, was appointed as the Minister of Rites by Your Majesty for his military merits, and entered the palace for his victory and returned to the court.
What is even more surprising is that Your Majesty also gave Wu Meiniang, a concubine of the Marquis of Zhongyi, the title of fourth-rank lady of the imperial edict.
As a result, the Yang Mansion did not know what kind of etiquette should be used to receive the imperial edict and welcome the marquis into the mansion.
In ancient times, the family members fought for the country and the court had a very complicated etiquette after the ceremony, let alone a general like Yang Fan.
This morning, Wu Meiniang followed Yang Fan's back and entered Chang'an City from Junyangfang. When she received this news, she wanted to ask for etiquette.
So the Yang Mansion was in chaos and even a little helpless.
At the critical moment, Wu Meiniang had the means, pinched her waist and waved her hand, so that all the servants could clean up the snow on the street.
Then everyone was ordered to go out of the mansion to line up to greet him to show his grandeur.
Although the army still had courtesy and the rules for welcoming the imperial edict, Wu Meiniang didn't understand it.
But it is enough to let the neighbors in Chang'an City see the might of our husband.
Of course, the more important thing is that Wu Meiniang also wants to show off her identity as a "destined wife".
After all, being granted the fourth-rank lady of the imperial decree as a concubine, in Wu Meiniang's opinion, this one in history has been enough to make her glorious for her life.
So, all the guards, servants or maids in the Yang Mansion left the mansion.
In order to boost momentum, Wu Meiniang even deliberately pulled out hundreds of guards from Junyangfang to help, and stood all over the street, stretching for hundreds of meters, and the momentum was incredible for a while.
When Yang Fan led his personal soldiers and officials to the palace, he saw the scene of the crowds of people rushing in the streets.
Junyangfang's guards, servants, maids in front and people watching the fun behind, crowding a street full of only a road in the middle.
The officials who announced the imperial edict walked in the middle, their legs and feet trembled a little.
If I hadn't come to promulgate the imperial edict, I would have thought I had been paraded in the streets.
I secretly sighed in my heart that this concubine in the Zhongyi Marquis's Mansion is too terrible.
Hundreds of guards with horizontal swords on their waists are each with five steps and ten steps. Is this kind of swaggering style really good?
Isn’t you just want to show that you have a good Heavenly Lord?
As for pulling all the guards out as foil?
What a woman's opinion!
There must be many memorials to impeach Zhongyi Hou tomorrow. Do you really think those censors are just having a free meal?
Not to mention the officials who proclaimed the imperial edict, even Yang Fan felt like he was walking on the red carpet at the Gala Film Festival.
Even when facing the Tubo cavalry charge, Yang Fan was not so nervous. At this time, he was so embarrassed that his face was hard and even sweating all over.
What the hell is Wu Meiniang doing? He wants to rebel so many guards?
Fortunately, His Majesty Li Er did not come, otherwise he would not be able to explain!
When he arrived at the mansion, he saw Wu Meiniang leading a group of women with a smile and personally approaching to pull the leash for Yang Fan?
This action made Yang Fan laugh and cry. He turned over and jumped off the horse's back and said with a wry smile: "My good lady, you acted like that. Do you really think your husband has nine lives?"
Wu Meiniang raised her neck like a swan and said proudly: "Who dares to say what can't be done? My husband fought for the country and annihilated the main force of Tubo with hundreds of cavalry. That is the merit of the country and the country's profit for thousands of years!"
"Now that all the territory of Tubo thousands of miles is included in the Tang Dynasty, and Your Majesty will grant his husband the high position of Minister of Rites for his military merits."
"Mei Niang is so lucky. She was given the honor of her husband and was given the imperial decree. The whole mansion is proud of her husband. Naturally, she will welcome you back to her house with great fanfare."
"Let's also let the whole Chang'an see that our husband is not Bangcui, but the Minister of Rites who are well-educated and polite, the general with great military achievements, and the God of War that has made foreign races frightened."
God of War, God of War, God of War...
As soon as the words were finished, hundreds of guards made deafening sounds.
Hearing the shouts that shocked Yun Xiao, Wu Meiniang smiled and turned to the official who announced the order and asked, "Does Meiniang think what she said is right?"
"What the wife said is very true!" The official who announced the edict squeezed out an ugly expression, nodded quickly and read out the imperial edict directly at the door of the mansion:
"A family that accumulates blessings must have the kindness of heaven. Yang Fan, the Marquis of Zhongyi, has achieved the moral character of martial arts, and is commendable for the words of civility and martial arts. His words are commendable and his actions are encouraged. Now he is the meritorious destruction of the country and is the blessing of the empire. Now he is granted the title of Yang Fan as the founding Marquis of Zhongyi, the founding Minister of Rites, and is temporarily responsible for the important task of imperial examination reform. He also granted the fief of Liu Qiu... The twelve halberds of the palace... His concubine Wu's concubine, Mei Niang, was virtuous and kind, was a model of a woman. To show her virtue, he was granted the title of the fourth-rank lady of the imperial edict... I hope you will not let down the grace of the holy people."
After reciting the imperial edict, the officials who announced the edict led their subordinates to run away without looking back.
There is nothing we can do!
This woman was decreed as the fourth-rank lady of the imperial decree, and if she was rank higher than her official rank.
More importantly, this group of guards put too much pressure on him.
Didn't you see these guards looking at Yang Fan with such pious eyes?
Of course, the return of officials who announced the edict did not affect the lively atmosphere, but instead made the scene even more grand.
Yang Fan really didn't know what to say, but he was in a good mood. Although his title was only added with the word "founding" and his status was very different, not to mention other rewards.
Looking at Wu Meiniang's mighty and domineering appearance, this girl obviously feels as comfortable as a "thousand-year-old daughter-in-law becoming a mother-in-law".
Needless to say, it was all because of her two brothers who had been oppressed and were given to Yang Fan as a concubine by His Majesty Li Er. Now that he is proud, he can understand that he has made some unexpected moves.
However, although Yang Fan was a little proud of his contribution, he was still a little embarrassed to announce it in public.
Besides, this credit is everyone's, not earned by him alone.
Although it is a great contribution to destroying the country, it is not so ostentatious, right?
Besides, we are a low-key person, and our favorite thing is to show off and slap in the face. Now that we are so high-profile, wouldn’t we make people laugh at me for nothing?
What's more, even the soldiers who died on the battlefield did not have such high courtesy, so what is Yang Fan's virtue?
It's so embarrassing!
However, beyond Yang Fan's expectations, Wu Meiniang's boasted words and the rewards of the imperial edict did not attract booing from the onlookers.
Instead, they cheered in unison, shouted at the God of War, and even praised the young hero of Zhongyi Marquis Yang Fan, who was a famous general of the generation.
Not only is she handsome and upright, but she is also unparalleled in poetry and martial arts...
If everyone hadn't known that the Marquis of Zhongyi was the son-in-law appointed by His Majesty Li Er, he would have said that he would not have sent his daughter as a concubine.
Of course, even so, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of the aunt and the aunt.
After all, Wu Meiniang can benefit from the concubine, and what is impossible to be given the imperial edict?
Many officials in the court had no imperial decree. In terms of their status, these wives were far inferior to one of the concubines of the Marquis of Zhongyi.
After a while, Yang Fan smiled bitterly and bowed to the onlookers, and then walked into his own door as if he was running away.
It feels really bad to be seen as a monkey!
