After saying goodbye to Cheng Yaojin and the other old generals, it was past noon. The morning court had been going on for so long, and Li Er didn't take care of the food. He was really not a good boss. Li Zexuan could only go home hungry.
"Xuan'er, are you okay? What does His Majesty want with you? He's not causing trouble for you, is he?"
As soon as she entered the door, Mrs. Li rushed over, hugged Li Zexuan, and kept looking around Li Zexuan with her eyes to see if her son was missing any parts.
Li Jingmo was also standing not far away, casting a concerned look over here. It was obvious that the couple had been waiting for him to come back in the yard, and they probably hadn't even eaten lunch yet.
"Brother, brother, are you okay?"
Lan'er heard the movement in the yard and ran out on her calves, followed by Tiedan who looked worried.
Li Zexuan looked at the worried faces of his family members, and a feeling of warmth arose in his heart involuntarily. Although he had not been in this world for a long time, he had received too much care from this small family.
"Mom, the baby is fine. His Majesty did not make things difficult for me. Let's talk while we go in and have lunch. The baby hasn't had lunch yet."
…
lobby.
While eating, Li Zexuan briefly told the two elders what happened in the morning. Of course, he did not talk about Yuan Wendao and Wei Zheng's impeachment of him. Since the matter was over, why bother to talk about it and make everyone worry.
Even so, several people at home were shocked and opened their mouths.
"Xuan'er, are you saying that His Majesty has made you a baron?"
Mrs. Li pulled Li Zexuan's arm excitedly and asked in disbelief.
Li Jingmo was also a little short of breath. He had been in business for many years and knew how humble a businessman's status was. If what his son said was true, then who would dare to underestimate Li Jingmo in the future.
Li Zexuan's mouth was still stuffed with something. When he saw his mother urging him, he quickly said in a low voice: "It's true, mother. I guess the imperial edict will be sent here in the afternoon. But Lantian County is so big, I don't know where my fiefdom will be." Which piece?"
"It doesn't matter where he is, you kid got the advantage and behaved well. This title is the most important, and our family is not short of land. Eat quickly, we have to meet the imperial edict in the afternoon."
Li Jingmo said angrily at the side. In fact, he was more excited than anyone else right now. His son had risen from a white body to a baron. By then, the entire Li family would also rise with the tide, and they would not be far away from becoming a wealthy family. He just couldn't bear to see Li Zexuan acting so obediently despite getting an advantage, so he couldn't help but say a few words.
"Dad, aren't you going to the shop in the afternoon?" Li Zexuan asked curiously. In the past, at this time, Dad Li usually went to work on his business.
Li Jingmo glared and said, "It's already now, why do you still care about business? Do you think your father and I can't tell the difference between the important and the important like you?"
Li Zexuan touched his nose awkwardly.
"Wow, then Lan'er will be the Baron's sister from now on. Can she be considered a high official?"
Lan'er cheered happily at this time.
Mrs. Li couldn't help laughing and said: "Yes, yes, yes, our Lan'er will also be a high official in the future!"
"Tiedan congratulates Master on being awarded the title of Baron!"
Tiedan on the side also bowed and congratulated very sensibly.
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded, and asked casually: "Tiedan, have you been lazy in recent days? How many words have you recognized?"
Lan'er rushed to say: "Brother, with Lan'er here, brother Tiedan doesn't dare to be lazy. Lan'er has taught Tiedan more than a hundred words in the past few days."
Li Zexuan praised: "Yes, I will invite a teacher to come back in a few days. Lan'er, you will also learn some scriptures and meanings with Tiedan. I don't expect you to become a scholar with the scriptures and meanings, I just hope you can understand something from them." The principles of being a human being.”
"Ah? Why does Lan'er also want to learn?" Lao Gao said reluctantly with Lan'er's mouth raised.
Li Jingmo and his wife just watched the quarrel between their brothers and sisters without interrupting. Since Li Zexuan came back, Lan'er didn't need them to give them a headache.
…
After the meal, Li Zexuan was urged by his mother to go back to the West Courtyard and take a bath. She said that to meet the imperial edict, he must bathe and change clothes in advance, so as to show respect for His Majesty the Emperor. Although Li Zexuan sneered at this, he had nothing to do. In this era, the deep-rooted supremacy of imperial power Thoughts, no one can change them.
Just after taking a shower, Li Zexuan saw Qing'er, the maid next to his mother, running over and saying:
"Master, Master, Master and Madam asked you to go to the front yard quickly. The angel has already arrived?"
Li Zexuan was shocked: "So fast? Then let's go!"
When Li Zexuan came to the front yard, he found that the incense table had been set up in the yard. Li Jingmo was chatting with a middle-aged man with a fair face and no beard. When he saw Li Zexuan, he quickly waved him over.
"Xuan'er, come quickly and say hello to Chamberlain Liu."
Li Zexuan came over, cupped his hands and said, "I've met Chamberlain Liu. Thank you for your hard work coming here to announce the decree."
The eunuch returned the salute with a smile and said in a sharp voice: "This must be Mr. Li. He is really a handsome young man. He is appreciated by His Majesty at such a young age. He has a bright future! Mr. Li, you should hurry up and accept the order."
Having said that, the eunuch stood facing south and facing north. Li Jingmo, Li Zexuan and others also stood with their hands on the side. Liu Shiqing coughed lightly: "The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict: Today, there is a son of a good family named Li Zexuan who has been practicing good conduct since childhood. , Ke...created roller bearings...made curved shafts and divine plows...contributed to the contemporary era and benefited the future...special seal..."
The eunuch recited for a long time. Except for the beginning, Li Zexuan didn't understand what these ancient texts were about. He finally heard something about roller bearings and Quyuan Divine Plow. This should be praising the achievements of his brothers, and then I heard Lantian County Man, this is my title, but where is the fiefdom? Didn't it mean that there were two hundred households in the city? There should be two to three thousand acres of land, right? Why didn't you hear it
After Chamberlain Liu finished reciting, Li Jingmo pressed Li Zexuan on the ground and bowed three times and kowtowed. He saw the eunuch saying with a smile: "Congratulations, Sir. Congratulations, Sir. Congratulations, Sir. You will be granted the title of male at the age of fourteen. He will be granted the title of Marquis just around the corner."
After saying that, his eyes were fixed on Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan stood on his head when he saw it, and he didn't know what was going on. Li Jingmo knew better, so he quickly brought a tray with a dozen gold cakes on it. Li Zexuan was stunned when he saw it, and secretly thought that his father was really generous. At the same time, he also I understood that this eunuch was trying to please money, and he was still too young. Fortunately, he had his father by his side to take care of him. It was like having an old man in the family, just like having a treasure!
Li Jingmo handed the tray to Chamberlain Liu and said with a smile: "My father and son are very grateful for bothering Chamberlain to rush around to deliver the order. How can I let Chamberlain return empty-handed after receiving this good news? I am respectful, and I hope Chamberlain Liu will not dislike it." "
Eunuch Liu took the tray with a smile, saluted Li Zexuan and said, "Thank you, Sir, for the reward!"
Li Zexuan nodded. This eunuch of the Tang Dynasty was not pregnant, but what he was most concerned about now was where his fiefdom was.
… …
Thank you Lightning Fury for the reward yesterday.
