Chapter 54. The decree arrives

Li Xianyuan chased him out of the inn. The flow of people on the street had returned to normal, except that Wen Ruyu was not seen. `

A bit of melancholy arose in his heart, and as he savored this emotion carefully, it seemed that the wound began to hurt slightly when he was touched. Li Xianyuan returned to the inn and took off his clothes, only to find that the previous movement had caused the wound to open, and the blood was soaked through the bandage.

It took a lot of effort to put on a new bandage. If anyone sees this scene, they will be quite surprised. Li Xianyuan is not very clumsy.

As soon as he put on his bandage and put on his clothes, there was a knock on the door. After hearing the news, Shen Sheng came to see him.

He still looked carefree. First he asked about Li Xianyuan's injury, and then changed the subject to ask if you saw the fireworks last night. He also brought some medicinal wine for Li Xianyuan to treat bruises.

Li Xianyuan accepted it anyway and put it into the "Hundred Treasures" baggage. There were so many miscellaneous things inside that Li Xianyuan even forgot what was in it.

After that, there were several days of training. At first, Li Xianyuan could not sleep at night and was always on the lookout for Wu Yi to lead another army. It was not until Wu Yi did not show up three days later that he felt relieved.

I guess Wu Yi is not the kind of person who has the patience to hide in the dark for three days.

On the fourth day, the imperial edict came late. There was a sudden heavy rain on the road, and the edict-delivery team was delayed for two days before arriving. But when they arrived, the magistrate and others had already written Li Xianyuan's "The Swordsman" on the book, and rushed to send it to the capital. `

The person who delivered the order was an old eunuch. He came to the inn where Li Xianyuan was staying with several guards. The guards were guarding the door, while he, an unattractive guard, and Fang Xian Cheng came in together.

"Master Li, why do you live in a place like this?" As soon as Fang entered the door, a high-pitched voice came from the eunuch's mouth. He pinched his nose with his orchid fingers, looking disgusted, as if the room was dirty.

"Master Fang, are you going to let us, the Marquis of Dashangguan, live in a place like this?"

On the other hand, Fang County Prime Minister seemed to have changed his mind and said with a serious look: "It's not that I let Mr. Li live in this kind of place, but that he insists on living here."

Li Xianyuan was practicing calligraphy in front of the case. When he saw the visitor, he put down his pen and stood aside. At this time, he bowed and said: "My father-in-law, I am alone. There is no need to live in that big house. An inn room is enough."

The old eunuch is usually responsible for traveling around to convey orders, which is a hard job. The more people he comes into contact with, the more naturally he will be divided into three, six, and nine grades in his heart. As an eunuch, his heart is inherently sensitive and fragile, and he is afraid of being made a fuss about by others, especially scholars. .

This happened a hundred years ago. A eunuch delivered an edict. Seeing the frivolous attitude of the other party, he couldn't help but say: "The young Hanlin wears winter clothes and holds a summer fan. Have you read the Spring and Autumn Period?"

Unexpectedly, the man blurted out: "The boss has come from the south to the north. Is that thing still there?"

The old eunuch was humiliated and speechless, so he had no choice but to throw away the imperial edict and walk away.`

From then on, the matter became a joke, and naturally there was no eunuch in the world who didn't hate him.

Therefore, Li Xianyuan's attitude was respectful and his temperament was outstanding. The old eunuch couldn't help but feel good about him. He relaxed his serious face slightly, cleared his throat and said: "The Za family is here this time because of the emperor's order. Li Xianyuan, please listen. purpose."

Before Li Xianyuan made any move, the old eunuch said again: "On the way here, the Za family heard that Mr. Li was assassinated and was seriously injured. There is no need to kneel, just stand and listen to the seal."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Lao Tianjian nodded, took out a golden brocade letter from his arms and unfolded it. The words "Imperial Edict" facing Li Xianyuan were very conspicuous.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I was deeply gratified to hear that a boy from Wuhou County, Shuntian County wrote a meteorological poem. Our great businessman is in need of such a talented person. I specially gave Li Xianyuan ten pieces of silk and satin, and a hundred taels of gold. This was an exceptional gift.

As a sixth-grade Guan Neihou, he does not enjoy the salary and fiefdom. I admire this——"

"Master Li, please accept the order."

Li Xianyuan took a few steps forward and reached out to receive the order. Suddenly, with a thought in his mind, he took out something from his sleeve and quietly handed it over while receiving the order.

As long as it is an ancient novel in the past life, there must be this plot, and Li Xianyuan also imitated it. After all, the King of Hell is very difficult to deal with. There is no harm in defeating these people.

On the side, the magistrate Fang was dumbfounded. His mind was full of questions, and he couldn't figure out where Li Xianyuan learned this method. He seemed to be very skilled.

The old eunuch was stunned for a moment, then he pinched it casually and felt out that the banknote was one thousand taels. He couldn't help but take a breath, immediately put on a smile and quietly hid the banknote.

He issued decrees all day long, either to princes or ministers, or to country scholars. The former would not bribe his little eunuch, and the latter did not even understand. Even if he did, he would only give him a few taels of silver.

, or preparing a banquet, just like a beggar. There is no money to be made. And never have I encountered such a big deal, and I was given a thousand taels at one time.

He has been delivering edicts for so many years, but he has made more money than this time.

"I don't know what to call my father-in-law." He held the imperial edict in his hand and it was as smooth as a woman's skin.

The old eunuch said with a smile: "The Za family's surname is Ji, Mr. Li can just call the Za family Eunuch Ji. The silk and gold are on the car downstairs. Mr. Li, please go downstairs with the Za family."

The surname is Ji...

Because of Li Wan'er, Li Xianyuan couldn't help but have a good impression of Ji, and his eyes had a softer look. He nodded and looked around for the place where the imperial edict was placed.

The old eunuch was good at observing words and expressions, and Li Xianyuan's soft color was naturally enough for his eyes. He was moved in his heart and couldn't help but politely said: "Master Li, Mr. Zajia and Mr. Fang will go downstairs and wait for you first."

After saying that, he went out together with the county magistrate and the guards who were unaware.

The guard was confused. He had never seen the old eunuch treat someone so politely. When did he not raise his head high and look condescending. At this time, he was willing to wait at the door!?

The door closed, and Li Xianyuan was the only one left in the room.

Others would regard the imperial edict as precious, but Li Xianyuan would not. He threw the imperial edict into his bag and went out to catch up with Eunuch Ji and others.

Going downstairs, the usual hustle and bustle was quiet for some reason. Li Xianyuan thought that everyone had been cleared out, but he found that the seats were full until he went downstairs. However, they were as quiet as boos, and they all looked at Li Xianyuan blankly.

"Congratulations to Lord Li!"

"Congratulations to Lord Li!"

"Master Li really brought glory to Wuhou City like me!"

With the first shout, the inn immediately exploded with congratulations and praises. The carriage delivering the reward was parked outside the inn, and they found out after asking around.

A thirteen-year-old Guanneihou emerged from Wuhou City. He not only committed a childbirth case, but also composed two meteorological and visionary poems!

The word "lord" can only be used to address the Duke of the country, that is, people of first rank or above. Li Xianyuan is only of sixth rank, so naturally he is not worthy of being called this. But how can these commoners care about such things? How can they speak fluently?

Eunuch Ji was standing by. Normally, he might have scolded Li Xianyuan for being rebellious, but at this time, he saw how pleasing Li Xianyuan was, so he naturally didn't care about these details. He narrowed his eyes and walked out side by side with Li Xianyuan amidst the noise.
