Aunt Yu didn't know what the situation was at the moment, so on the way, she reminded Xiao Nianzhi: "If it's a big happy event, I'll give you fifteen taels, if it's a general order, I'll give you ten taels."
The decree is different from the last reward, so it must be given a certain degree of dignity.
Aunt Yu was afraid that Xiao Nianzhi didn't have enough money, so she added, "I have some, so don't worry."
Xiao Nianzhi happened to have enough money in his hand. How dare he ask for Aunt Yu's money at this time? So after hearing this, he waved his hand hurriedly: "Auntie, I have it."
Knowing that the little girl had it, Aunt Yu didn't say anything more.
The two people quickly went to the front yard. At this time, the students were still in class and the front yard was relatively quiet.
The person who came to announce the decree was a young eunuch, but Aunt Yu knew her well and gave Xiao Nianzhi a gentle wink to indicate that she was not a small role.
The other party is the apprentice of the Grand Steward of Quande, and his status in the palace is not bad.
After Xiao Nianzhi and Aunt Yu approached, they knelt down to listen to the order.
Xiao Nianzhi was quite surprised when he heard that it was a decree to make him the king of the village.
Originally, she thought that this time she would be rewarded with some money and a house.
As a result, a big wave came this time, and they were given some face?
Although the status of the country prince is not high, it is compared to that of a noble woman.
For her who comes from a farmer's family, this is actually pretty good.
After Xiao Nianzhi heard this, he quickly thanked him and handed over the money bag.
The little eunuch pretended to decline before accepting.
Things like Feng Xiangjun are already a big deal to Aunt Yu.
So, after thinking about it, she gave the little eunuch two more money bags.
This is a big deal. The little eunuch wants to sell it well to Xiao Nianzhi, but he has no nerve to accept it.
After several refusals, Aunt Yu forcefully asked him to accept it.
The money has been collected, so the little eunuch naturally needs a few more words of advice.
Xiangjun is considered a noble daughter with some status, and naturally she has some welfare benefits, although it doesn't seem to be much.
48 taels of silver per year, two stones of rice, and six pieces of cloth.
There will also be some corresponding benefits for New Year's Day and the like, and someone from the inner court will arrange for them to be delivered.
If you perform particularly well this year, you may be given vegetables or other rewards by His Majesty during the annual banquet.
In short, the benefits are good, Xiao Nianzhi just remember to check them.
The little eunuch talked a lot, and Xiao Nianzhi responded politely.
After the two sides were polite for a long time, Xiao Nianzhi and Aunt Yu sent the person away.
The accident came so suddenly. After sending the person away, the master and the apprentice looked at each other, somewhat confused and unable to react.
After a long time, Aunt Yu couldn't help but praise: "My apprentice is really amazing!"
Compared with the previous rewards, this time's Xiangjun is still very beneficial to the improvement of Xiao Nianzhi's status.
Moreover, for many noble women or noble people, the status of the country monarch is not high, and in fact, it is not very eye-catching, and it will not arouse the jealousy of many people.
Coupled with Xiao Nianzhi's current salary, he will earn a lot a year, and his life will be more comfortable.
Xiao Nianzhi also reacted belatedly. Hearing Aunt Yu's praise, he quickly shook his head and said, "I am also lucky."
The little girl was modest, so Aunt Yu didn't say much. She just raised her hand and nodded at her: "You."
After sighing softly, he pulled the little girl and walked in: "Let's have a good meal for lunch. Auntie will pay for it and let Manager Qiu help buy it!"
After finishing speaking, he thought for a while and added: "You don't need to do anything, we will just eat the chefs' cooking, and it will be as bad as it is, but it will save trouble."
It's getting colder today, but Xiao Nianzhi is not afraid of cooking, so after hearing Aunt Yu's words, he quickly shook his head: "I'll just do it, but wait until the afternoon, so as not to take up the chefs' space and time. .”
After hearing this, Aunt Yu looked disapproving: "How can that be done?
? They eat and we smell? If they don't need to do anything, let's go back to the backyard and do it. "
When Xiao Nianzhi heard this, he thought it was a good idea and nodded in agreement.
Aunt Yu said she would pay, and she really paid, and Xiao Nianzhi couldn't stop her.
The master wanted to celebrate herself, so Xiao Nianzhi thought about it and let her do it.
On the other side of the palace, Yan Xingxuan originally wanted to rush to the Imperial Academy to celebrate with Xiao Nianzhi.
but……
A rather terrifying thing happened in the capital today.
Two officials from the Zhuhe faction who advocated peace with the Gua Kingdom were assassinated last night. Their heads were hung at the door of their houses. Their appearance after the blood had drained out was very scary.
Although many people feel happy, after all, who likes soft bones?
Including His Majesty, the first reaction after hearing the news was: Well done!
However, after having fun, he couldn't help but start to worry. His Majesty also asked Jingzhao Yin Mansion and Dali Temple to jointly investigate this matter.
After all, those people can kill court officials silently, but what about the others?
Even His Majesty above the high hall?
Could it be that his head was cut off in the middle of the night and hung directly at the palace gate?
Because of this, His Majesty's face didn't look good the whole morning, and remained dark.
This also made the officials who were called into the palace to discuss matters today couldn't help but tremble.
After the Queen Mother heard about this incident, she said she would not let Yan Xingxuan leave the palace at this time: "No, it is too dangerous. Let's take a look at the situation and the investigation results from Jing Zhaoyin and Dali Temple."
Yan Xingxuan was actually a little worried about Xiao Nianzhi's side, but his mother wouldn't let him go, so he didn't want to worry the old man, so he could only hold back temporarily and wait for the outcome in the palace.
Xiao Nianzhi only found out about this when it was close to noon.
Manager Qiu went down the mountain to do some shopping. When he came back, he told them about the incident: "Oh, I heard that the head has been hung up for a long time, and its face is gray. It looks like a lonely ghost crawling back from the underworld. It's very scary. ah."
"I don't know who the righteous person was, and he was so ruthless, but the weakling really deserves to end up like this."
Manager Qiu had retired from the battlefield and had never had a good impression of these peace advocates.
Especially these two people, they actually suggested that the princess get married to the melon bandit!
No, are they filled with shit?
What kind of hellish suggestions are these?
Xiao Nianzhi was also shocked when he heard about this.
Just cut off the head!
It seems that the person who did it is also a ruthless person.
However, for Xiao Nianzhi, it would be better to cut off this kind of softie who wants peace, so as not to keep it and harm others.
Although, it is possible that they are just tools in the struggle for power.
But who gave them the upper hand?
It was just to protect their own vested interests. They themselves also took advantage of their rights, so their death was not unjust.
