Jingtai Fenghua

Chapter 263 Marquis of Luling

Wang Ying unfolded the imperial edict and said: "Luling Bolin Cunde accepted the edict!"

After hearing this, Lin Cunde lifted up his hem, knelt down and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Luling Bolin Cunde accepts the order!"

At this moment, behind Lin Cunde, Lin Cunyi and his wife, Lin Cunli and his wife, Wang Chenghai and his wife, Lin Cunzhi, Lin Cunzhen, and everyone in the mansion all knelt down!

Wang Ying continued to read: "The emperor was entrusted with the mission of heaven, and the edict said: Bolin Cunde in Luling was ordered by the emperor. In the battle of Shanhaiguan, more than 50,000 Ora cavalry were killed, and in the battle of the enemy chief Asi Yizhou's acropolis, the Ora was annihilated. There are more than 20,000 cavalry. I am specially granted the title of Marquis of Luling, and I am rewarded with an iron coupon for the elixir book. I also posthumously ennoble my father, Lin Xiangfeng, Duke of Liang, and his mother, Mrs. Lin Wang, Duke of Liang. I appreciate this!"

"Lin Cunde, Marquis of Luling, received the order to express his gratitude. Long live our emperor!" Lin Cunde said, kowtowing to Wang Ying, and then raised his hands to support him!

Wang Ying also came around, handed the imperial edict to Lin Cunde, and said: "There is also an imperial edict!"

"Yes!" Lin Cunde took it, and then turned around. Lin Cunyi immediately knelt forward to catch the imperial edict with both hands, and then kneeled back, feeling very excited!

Wang Chenghai and his wife were also excited. Their aunt was named the wife of Liang Guogong and had to build a local temple to worship her. This was also an honor for their family!

"Lin Cunde, the Marquis of Luling, accepts the order!" Hu Xi stood up and said with a smile.

"My lord, Lin Cunde, the Marquis of Luling, has accepted the order!" Lin Cunde knelt there and kowtowed again.

"The Marquis of Luling was promoted from the Qianshi of the Hou Army to the right governor of the Hou Army! In addition, Lin Cunde was specially appointed as the imperial envoy to patrol the south to inspect the official affairs and military affairs of Zhejiang and Jiangxi. The officials of the two provinces were controlled by the Marquis of Luling!" Hu Hui unfolded The Holy Edict was read.

Lin Cunde was very shocked after hearing this in his heart. The ministers still didn't know that Zhu Qiyu had investigated the situation of officials in Zhejiang and Jiangxi. Now, Zhu Qiyu had appointed himself as the imperial envoy first, which was to pass on the news.

It is estimated that the ministers in the court are now guessing what Lin Cunde is going to do when he goes to Jiangxi and Zhejiang?

After going to Jiangxi and Zhejiang, how will we rectify the officialdom and how will we rectify the army?

Moreover, why go to Jiangxi and Zhejiang? Is it just to let Lin Cunde go home to visit relatives?

Even Hu Xi had this idea. He didn't know yet that Zhu Qiyu had sent people to investigate the official administration situation in these two provinces.

"My lord, Lin Cunde, the Marquis of Luling, has accepted the order. Long live our emperor!" Lin Cunde kowtowed again!

Hu Hui handed the imperial edict to Lin Cunde, and Lin Cunde pulled it up with both hands!

After Lin Cunde stood up, those behind him stood up.

Lin Cunli came over to receive the imperial edict. He knew that Lin Cunde also needed to receive the iron certificate of the alchemy book, the Marquis's seal and other related things.

At this moment, Lin Cunzhi and Lin Cunzhen came in handy. They all came to help get things, and so did Wang Chenghai!

After taking those things, the remaining things are ordinary rewards!

Lin Cunde also led Wang Ying to the living room. After Lin Cunde laid out the imperial edict, he came to entertain Wang Ying and the others.

Lin Cunyi is also starting to distribute reward money outside at this moment. After all, those officials from the Ministry of Rites need to pay a share!

Hu Hui sat there and congratulated Lin Cunde, then looked at Lin Cunde and asked, "Do you know why you were asked to go to Jiangxi and Zhejiang for business?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Cunde knew that he was here to inquire about the situation, so he quickly looked at Hu Hui with a questioning look and asked: "I also want to ask Hu Shangshu, why are you asking me to go to Zhejiang and Jiangxi as an imperial envoy to inspect the administration? This, I He is a military commander, not a civil servant!"

Lin Cunde also looked at Hu Hui with a puzzled expression.

"You don't know either?" Upon hearing this, Hu Hu looked at Lin Cunde with suspicion.

"I, I really don't know, what happened in these two provinces?" Lin Cunde deliberately pretended to be confused and looked at Hu Hui.

Hu Xi waved his hand and said, "I don't know anymore!"

"Oh, I said Hu Shangshu, don't ask me. There are several more houses. Let's go. We have to finish this matter before dark. My dear nephew, I'm leaving first. I'll be here tomorrow when you have a banquet. !" Wang Ying immediately came to Lin Cunde's rescue. Wang Ying knew it without even thinking. Lin Cunde must know what happened in Jiangxi and Zhejiang!

Otherwise, Zhu Qiyu would definitely not let Lin Cunde go to Jiangxi and Zhejiang without first asking Lin Cunde what he meant!

But Hu Xi kept asking, and Lin Cunde couldn't shirk it. Moreover, Wang Ying didn't want those civil servants to ask about her future son-in-law, because she needed to be protected!

"Yes, today is too hasty, come back tomorrow to chat!" Hu Hui also stood up at this moment, and said to Lin Cunde!

"Welcome, welcome!" Lin Cunde stood up quickly, raised his hands to Hu Hui, and then cast a grateful look at Wang Ying. Wang Ying was very happy, knowing that he had guessed correctly!

Lin Cunde and Lin Cunyi took them to the carriage, and they were going to Xiang Qing's house to announce the decree.

After watching them disappear around the corner, Lin Cunde turned around with a smile and returned home with his hands behind his back.

As soon as they stepped into the gate of the mansion, the servants smiled and saluted Lin Cunde: "Greetings to the Marquis!"

"Hahaha, reward, five taels of silver for each person, each person!" Lin Cunde shouted with a smile. "Thank you, Lord Marquis!" the servants saluted Lin Cunde and shouted with a smile.

"Haha!" Lin Cunyi was also happy, with tears streaming down his face. He was proud of his brother in his heart.

The same is true for Lin Cunli. No matter how hard he touches his tears, he can't wipe them clean!

Lin Cunzhi and Lin Cunzhen were very happy, but they wouldn't know how to make them cry with excitement. They didn't understand yet, but they knew it was something worth being happy about!

"Second brother, in terms of ingredients, we need to prepare them in advance. Tomorrow will be very busy. I will go to the palace tomorrow morning to thank you and come back for dinner at noon. If I don't come back in time, you can greet those guests on my behalf. I estimate that Shibo will also come by then. Come to help, the other two uncles will also come, you greet me first, I guess I may come back late tomorrow!" Lin Cunde confessed to Lin Cunyi.

"Okay, these are small things, you don't need to worry about it. Some ingredients will be processed tonight. Don't worry, I will keep an eye on those ingredients myself!" Lin Cunyi nodded and said to Lin Cuunde!

"Well, third cousin, you should learn from your second brother first. He knows a lot, so you should learn slowly first!" Lin Cunde said to Wang Chenghai.

"I know, just rest, we will do the rest!" Wang Chenghai nodded and said.

"Okay!" Lin Cunde nodded and walked to the living room. Not long after he sat down, Wang Zhi came. He came to the house without notification. He could come whenever he wanted!

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, haha, congratulations, brother-in-law!" Wang Zhi happily raised his hand to Lin Cunde.

"Haha, Xiaozhi, come here!" Lin Cunde was very happy and called Wang Zhi to come and sit down.

Wang Zhi came over and sat down very happily, and said with a smile: "My second sister is so happy to know that you have been granted the title of Marquis!"

"Hey, there's no reply to the letter I asked you to send?" Lin Cunde looked at Wang Zhi with a smile and said. Lin Cunde wrote a letter to Wang Meichun as soon as he came back. The two of them basically wrote a letter every ten days and exchanged letters. Appeal to your feelings!

"Here, brother-in-law, get the benefits!" Wang Zhi said, taking out a letter and threatening Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde smiled and went over to suppress Wang Zhi, grabbed the letter and said: "I don't believe that Chun'er won't give you any benefits. I sent someone to send five thousand taels of silver to Chun'er. Chun'er's letter It said, if you have nothing to do, just go over and ask for one hundred taels, do you think I don’t know?”

"You can't blame me for this. My father won't give it to me. My father also takes the money I make from my business. I'll go there to reason with you. After all, I'm also the heir apparent now, right? I'm away from home and have no money. No!" Wang Zhi was depressed because he wanted to ask his second sister for it, but his father was too strict.

"I told Qiu Shuang that I will give you a quota of three hundred taels every month. If you don't have any money, come and ask Qiu Shuang!" Lin Cunde smiled and said, Wang Zhi is still very sensible, he does not waste money, and he will not cause trouble, but He said that having many friends, eating and socializing requires money, and I support this!

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" Wang Zhi was very happy when he heard what Lin Cunde said.

"Well, okay, what have you been busy with recently?" Lin Cunde asked with a smile,

Before Wang Zhi could answer, Lin Cunyi came over and said that there were guests in the house, Shi Heng was here, and there were other marquises and earls!

Lin Cunde let Wang Zhi go and could only go to greet him!

Then Lin Cunde and the princes chatted together in the living room. In the evening, Lin Cunde invited them to dinner in the mansion.

In the evening, Lin Cunde sat in the study and read a book. Lin Cunde liked reading. Lin Cunyi brought Lin Cunzhi and the others over!

"See, your fifth brother is now a marquis and still wants to read. As for you, if you don't study hard, I'll beat you to death!" Lin Cunyi stared at the two of them and said.

"What's wrong?" Lin Cunde looked at Lin Cunyi in confusion.

"It's nothing, I'm just annoyed because they don't like reading. You said such a good opportunity, how could we miss it? We are old and we really haven't read many books!" Lin Cunyi stared at them and said with hatred.

"Well, by the way, fourth brother!" Lin Cunde put down the book and called Lin Cunli.

"Yeah!" Lin Cunli knew that Lin Cunde must be talking to him!

"You continue to stay in the Fifth Army Camp as Deputy Qianhu. You have just joined the army not long ago, and you have just started practicing martial arts, so I didn't let you go outside. Of course, Yu Shaobao also helps here, and you serve as Deputy Thousand households, there will definitely be no problem in the Fifth Military Camp.

However, you also need to practice martial arts diligently and read more military books. After working for a few years, you will be transferred to a local place and serve as a thousand households. In the past few years, pay attention! Lin Cunde sat down, poured tea for them, and said.

"Hey, don't worry, Xiao Wu, I know. I have been on the battlefield. Although I have not killed the enemy, I know that people will die in war!" Lin Cunli nodded solemnly. Lin Cunde did not need to give these orders.

"Well, Sixth Brother, in a few days, come with me to the Ministry of War to register and serve as my personal soldier, taking over the position of Fourth Brother!" Lin Cunde continued.

"Ah!" Lin Cunzhen looked at Lin Cunde in surprise.

"Ah, what? Why don't you thank you fifth brother quickly? You guys are really lucky!" Lin Cunyi smiled and slapped Lin Cunzhen on the back of the head and cursed with a smile.

"Thank you, fifth brother, thank you, fifth brother, but I don't know how!" Lin Cunzhen looked at Lin Cunde with a smile, but he was still a little worried.
