Sima Letian glanced at them, took Zhang Xuan's hand, and left with a warm smile.
Xilai in the audience never raised his head, his old face turned red with embarrassment, and he was secretly filled with regret.
When the ministers saw that Sima Letian was so close to Zhang Xuanxun, they started talking about it.
"Brother, this newly appointed General Xiaoyao is really extraordinary. We all underestimated him before!"
"Well, I think it's not just a matter of extraordinary level, but also an extraordinary origin. If he were an ordinary country boy, how could he have such an opportunity and possess such magical powers? There must be someone secretly supporting him. And those If the master is not inextricably connected with him, how can he support him willingly?"
"Brother, do you mean to say that General Xiaoyao is the illegitimate son of the emperor -"
"Bah, stop it! These are all your own random guesses. I didn't say it clearly. Don't rely on me to cause trouble!"
"I understand, I understand, I can only understand it but cannot express it in words, haha!"
Zhang Xuan broke up with Sima Letian and returned to his residence. After a while, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came over carrying some things.
The leader said: "General, this is the 100,000 Sima coins awarded to you by the Emperor in memory of your meritorious service in subduing demons. Please check it."
What, one hundred thousand Sima coins?
Zhang Xuan was stunned when he heard this.
The currency in circulation in the Sima Empire is divided into two types: good coins and bad coins. Good coins are Sima coins, and bad coins are firewood coins. One Sima coin is worth ten firewood coins. All the currencies Zhang Xuan had seen before were all firewood coins. These 100,000 Sima coins are equivalent to one million firewood coins, which is a lot of money.
He is now the official of Xiaoyao General, Demon Slayer Envoy, and receives a first-grade salary of five thousand Sima coins every year. His mother, Xiao, was granted the title of Lady of the Third Grade by Guangdong Province, and could also receive two thousand Sima coins every year. Coupled with the 100,000 Sima coins awarded by the emperor, he will be a serious and wealthy family!
He was not used to the feeling of getting rich overnight.
After sending away the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he put away the Sima coins. His mind was still immersed in the imagination of the poor becoming rich, and he couldn't extricate himself for a while.
After a long time, Zhang Xuan was freed from such thoughts, and thought to himself: The emperor gave me so many things, it must be for me to cure the seventh princess's illness. If I fail to live up to the emperor's expectations, he might Take these property back. People in the government have always been fickle and prone to falling out at every turn, so they must be treated carefully.
Thinking of this, he began to think about how to treat the seventh princess Baguio.
For this reason, he reorganized the evil spirits skills he had retrieved from Xingyou. After confirming that he could cure the disease, he ordered Xiaoxin to start eating.
On the way back from the racecourse, Sima Letian told him personally that this guest house was his temporary official residence and that he would live here from now on. The Ministry of Internal Affairs had already equipped him with chefs and other service staff.
Therefore, when it was about time for dinner, he confidently asked Xiaoxin to tell the chef to put out the cooked rice so that he could enjoy it.
After enjoying a delicious meal, Zhang Xuan asked Xiaoxin to call the fifth prince Stu.
Xiao Xin was a little hesitant at first, thinking that even though Zhang Xuan had been named a general, he might not be able to impress Stu. Unexpectedly, Stu followed him without saying a word.
When Zhang Xuan saw Stu come in, he didn't get up. He just sat there calmly and said to Stu: "Stu, your face was bruised like this because you were drunk and fell down. Your wife must not be too happy, right?"
Stu smiled awkwardly in response.
Zhang Xuan asked Stu to sit down next to him, put his hand on Stu's shoulder, and said: "You are such an adult and you are so careless. It's really disappointing. Let me help you repair it!"
Stu was hit with a wine glass and his face was disfigured. His disfigured appearance was indeed unwelcome. Even his wife disliked him. She had been extremely troubled for the past few days and wished someone could remove the scars on his face. Apart from this, Kuai Xinbing, seeing Zhang Xuan acting like this at this moment, did not think that Zhang Xuan could remove the scars on his face. Instead, he thought to a large extent that Zhang Xuan was teasing him, but he had to obey.
He has already experienced Zhang Xuan's sophistication and knows that Zhang Xuan has the magical power to kill people without blood, and he really doesn't want to offend Zhang Xuan.
Xiaoxin and others didn't believe it at all when they heard what Zhang Xuan said. They all know that once a scar is left on someone's body, it is difficult to remove it, especially on a place like the face. However, Zhang Xuan calmly said that he wanted to repair the scar on Stu's face, and just put a scar on Stu's face. Putting his hands on Stu's shoulders, they disagreed with this statement and approach from the bottom of their hearts.
However, then, they gradually began to change their minds. Gein and the others saw that the scars on Stu's face were changing at a speed visible to the naked eye. First they turned red all over, and then gradually shrank until they shrank to the size of a grain of grain.
This transformation process only took about a meal.
When Zhang Xuan took his hand away from Stu's shoulder, Stu said: "General, you are so full of firepower that you actually made me very hot too!"
When he said this, he did not think that Zhang Xuan had repaired the scar on his face, but thought that Zhang Xuan had played a little joke on him.
But Xiaoxin stared and said, "Fifth Prince, the general has repaired the scar on your face, don't you feel it yourself?"
ah?
After hearing this, Stu stared at Xiaoxin suspiciously, as if trying to find the answer on her face that she was not lying. Zhang Xuan can tease him because he is a powerful person that he can't afford to offend, but if even the maid serving Zhang Xuan teases him, then he won't tolerate it.
Suspicious, he reached out and touched his face, and was surprised to find that the area he touched was smooth and smooth, not as bumpy as before. After Xiaoxin brought an obsidian mirror and Stu looked in the mirror, he was completely sure that the scar on his face was gone.
"Thank you, General!"
At this time, he expressed his gratitude to Zhang Xuan devoutly.
"I still say what I said, be an honest person, do things according to the rules, don't use your power to bully others, and don't do random evil!" Zhang Xuan said with a straight face.
"I will definitely remember the general's teachings!" Stu responded respectfully, "Also, I did something stupid to you that day. Now that I think about it, I feel very sorry. I must give you appropriate compensation. My brocade There are so many good cloths and clothes in the shops in the city. The next day I will ask the clerks to select some and send them to you. You must accept it, otherwise I will feel sorry for you!"
After hearing this, Zhang Xuan thought to himself: Well, this top-notch dandy has made a lot of money by using the power of the royal family to do business. It's not an exaggeration for me to enjoy some of him.
"Well, since you have this intention, then I will be disrespectful!" Zhang Xuan responded grandly.
Xiaoxin interrupted from the side: "General, you should say that you deserve it!"
Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes at her and scolded: "The fifth prince is willing to give me cloth and clothes, why should I feel guilty? Just because I healed the scar on his face, shouldn't he reward me heavily? Ask him, If I restore the scar on his face to its original state and take away his things, will he be willing?"
After hearing this, Stu couldn't help but be frightened, and secretly complained about Xiaoxin's troubles. He knew that Zhang Xuan's words were not nonsense. It was really possible to use magical powers to change his scars back to their original appearance. In that case, he might live with those scars for the rest of his life, which was something he never wanted to happen.
