Zhu Shou couldn't help but frown when he saw the concierge's reckless look. His family was discussing something, and you, the concierge, rushed in without even asking, and didn't you even talk about family rules and etiquette?
"Master, the imperial edict has arrived."
Imperial decree!
Zhu Shou no longer cared about punishing the concierge, and quickly took his whole family out to greet him.
The wife's heart, which she had just put down, was lifted up again.
Zhu Shou didn't have anything to worry about. Since the emperor agreed to let him go to Luzon to be the governor, nothing bad would happen. However, he was also curious about the imperial edict. Why did the emperor insist on issuing the decree? After an imperial edict, is it just for the position of governor? This is not the case. Wouldn't it be enough for the imperial court to appoint him?
"I respectfully accept the holy will." Zhu Shou placed the incense table, took his whole family, and knelt down to worship the holy decree.
As soon as the eunuch unfolded the imperial edict, he read: "I have been entrusted by heaven to carry the emperor. The edict says: The mighty general Zhu Shou is brave and good at fighting and has repeatedly made military exploits. He has not changed his ambition despite many hardships. I am very relieved. From now on, I will confer the title of Zhu Shou on the Marquis of Shunshang. , be rewarded with the hereditary iron scroll, and be given an estate of 1,600 shi, plus 400 shi. I admire this!"
The middle-aged eunuch who read out the imperial edict was also an exquisite figure. He closed the edict and put it away. When he saw Zhu Shou kneeling on the ground in a daze, he had not yet recovered.
Then he said with a smile: "Congratulations, Lord Marquis, congratulations to Lord Marquis. Lord Marquis, you'd better hurry up and thank me."
Zhu Shou suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately shed tears of excitement, and kowtowed solemnly in the direction of the palace.
"My lord, thank you for your kindness. I will die in vain to repay you."
Zhu Shou respectfully accepted the imperial edict, but still felt that the scene in front of him was so unreal. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched his thigh hard, fearing that all this was just a dream.
The severe pain in his legs told him that all this was true.
No wonder Zhu Shou couldn't believe it. He had been thinking about Fenghou for too long. He originally thought that there was no hope in this life, but he didn't expect that things would turn around so quickly.
The reason why Zhu Shou was able to become a marquis was because his actions greatly moved Lao Zhu. After Zhu Shou's food was stipulated in the imperial edict, four hundred stones were added directly. Is this usually done? Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible. Add, if you want to add something, just draw it up together. Is there such a thing that just after drawing it up, you continue to add it?
This shows how happy Lao Zhu is.
After confirming that it was not a dream, the gloom in Zhu Shou's heart was swept away. His back stood as straight as a sword, and he felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
"Come here, reward! I have many rewards~"
As soon as Zhu Shou said these words, everyone around him burst into laughter.
The eunuchs who read out the imperial edict smiled brightly. Isn't it just for this moment that they got the job of reading out the imperial edict?
Not only the eunuchs, but also everyone in the Zhu family, including the servants, were rewarded.
Once he was granted the title of Marquis, the Zhu family was completely different. From then on, Zhu Shou was a nobleman and a high-ranking official. He was no longer a martial artist criticized by civil officials. Even if the civil officials wanted to scold him as a martial artist, they could only do so secretly in private. .
The long-term expectation was finally fulfilled. Not only was Zhu Shou not in a trance, but he was very sober. He knew exactly where this marquis came from.
So Zhu Shou hurriedly went to the palace to express his gratitude to Lao Zhu.
After that, Lan Yu was asked to call Han Du and others, and he was going to thank him in person.
But this time, the gathering place for several people was not at Lan Yu Mansion, but on a boat.
Han Du sat down and looked at the surroundings. He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "Brother, you are very fast. You can build such a boat in such a short time."
Lan Yu laughed and explained: "This is the boat from last time. After it was impeached, we put it away. Didn't I listen to your attention? It's just a good time to try it and see the imperial guards.
What other reasons can Shi use to impeach me?"
At this moment, Zhu Shou happened to walk in.
Han Du turned around and saw Zhu Shou wearing a python robe, red, blue and green, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Greetings to the Marquis, the Marquis is really in great spirits."
Zhu Shou burst out laughing when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "We are still confused now, and we don't know why the emperor suddenly made him a marquis. However, I still want to thank you, Han Du."
Han Du smiled and said nothing. Looking at Zhu Shou, he was a sensible man. Although Han Du didn't know why Lao Zhu suddenly became a marquis, there were no signs before. But after thinking about it carefully, Han Du also
There is inevitably some speculation.
Maybe Lao Zhu had wanted to grant Zhu Shou a title for a long time, but it was just because the nobles in the past stretched his hips too much, which made Lao Zhu lose his temper and didn't want to give it. Or maybe Zhu Shou stood up and redeemed him when no one responded.
He lost the face of Emperor Lao Zhu and gave him a step down. When Lao Zhu was happy, he made him a marquis.
Not to mention, the latter possibility is very high.
Han Du didn't dare to take advantage of this kind of deception. He shook his head and said, "The emperor granted you the title of Marquis. Why are you thanking me?"
Zhu Shou smiled and nodded to Han, without saying anything more. Some words are more useful to keep in your heart than to say them out loud.
When everyone arrived, the boat began to move slowly. Six singers came out from the back holding various musical instruments, leaned towards the crowd slightly, and began to play music.
Han Du looked at the scene in front of him with great interest, as if he had never seen the world before. But this cannot be blamed on Han Du. Although he was well-informed, things like traveling by boat with beautiful women would never happen in his life.
This is still the first time.
In the past, I could only envy, envy, and hate these things. Now that I can experience them myself, how can I not be overwhelmed with emotion?
After the food and wine were served, Zhu Shou picked up the wine glass and toasted Han Du first. "Brother Han, no matter what, it was Han Du's guidance that gave us the opportunity to become a marquis. Brother Han's friendship will be kept in our hearts. Drink!"
Han Du saw that Zhu Shou insisted on doing this, so he had to have a drink with him. However, after drinking, Han Du still explained: "The title of Marquis is the emperor's favor and Brother Zhu's luck, and it really has nothing to do with me."
"No matter what, we can get the position of governor thanks to Brother Han's guidance." Zhu Shou smiled and gestured to Han Du.
When Lan Yu heard this, her heart moved and she couldn't help but ask: "What? Is this governor's position really beneficial?"
Zhu Shou did not hide anything. He nodded with a smile and said, "It's similar to what Brother Han expected. The emperor allowed us to take two thousand soldiers to sea, but we can only take new recruits."
No one cares whether the new soldiers are new or not. What everyone cares about is whether the emperor really agrees to let the governor combine military and political power.
"Your Majesty, have you really given all the military and political power in Luzon to you?" Lan Yu looked solemn, a little unbelievable.
Lao Zhu said in the court that the governor was in charge of all local affairs, and now he asked Zhu Shou to lead the troops, so everything goes without saying. Seeing the concierge's reckless look, Zhu Shou couldn't help but frown. His family was talking about things,
Didn't you, a concierge, rush in without even asking a question? Didn't you even mention the family rules and etiquette?
