Chapter 73 The decree arrives

Hu Jianbi was below, seeing everything in his eyes, especially seeing his uncle nodding to Li Mingyan frequently, his guts turned green with jealousy!

He swears that he will make this bumpkin look good!
Li Mingyan knew that today's goal had been achieved, so he got up, returned to his original position, and stopped disturbing the chat with the city lord and the others.

Regarding his knowledge, the big shots nodded in satisfaction again, their eyes full of appreciation.

As soon as he sat down, Aoba came in.

Qingye walked to his side and whispered, "Master, Miss Biao has left the City Lord's Mansion!"

Li Mingyan stopped pouring the wine, "Huh?"

"It seems that after Miss Yaojia was bullied, she was thrown out of the City Lord's Mansion. Miss Biao was worried about her, so she went to find her. Nanny Hu followed Miss Biao, so the subordinate came here to report."

Li Mingyan's drooping eyebrows and eyes sank, and then he continued to pour the wine, his voice was flat and unwavering, "Got it."

At this moment, a thin and long voice suddenly came from outside, "The imperial decree has arrived!"

Everyone, including Zhu Hongchen, was taken aback!
It was the butler Zhu Wu who came back to his senses first and reminded him, "My lord, hurry up and receive the order!"

"Oh, that's right, hurry up, let's go to meet him!" Zhu Hongchen hurried out of the front hall with a group of people to meet him.

In the courtyard, the Imperial Forest Army lined up on both sides. The leader was a white-faced and beardless eunuch. He stood there proudly, holding a bright yellow imperial edict high in one hand.

Seeing Zhu Hongchen come out, the eunuch took a step forward, "The imperial decree has arrived, Zhu Hongchen, the lord of Sifang City, will accept it!"

"Sir, Zhu Hongchen accepts the order!" Zhu Hongchen hurriedly knelt down, and there was a mass of kneeling behind him.

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Zhu Hongchen, the lord of the Sifang City, is well-governed, and the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment, and the grains are abundant. I know the sacred heart, and I will give you a pair of jade Ruyi, fifty pieces of brocade, and a hundred taels of gold! Order, Your Excellency The daughter under her knees, Zhu Shanshan, is intelligent, civil and military, and can be described as a tiger father without a dog girl. She is specially named Princess Yushan, and eight guards are rewarded to show my heart, I admire you!"

After the eunuch read the imperial decree, Zhu Hongchen was stunned!
This reward is simply a piece of pie from the sky, and his daughter has even been made princess!
Seeing Zhu Hongchen not moving, the eunuch knew the reason for his gaffe, so he reminded him, "Lord Zhu, accept the order!"

Only then did Zhu Hongchen come to his senses, "Minister... Your minister Zhu Hongchen accepted the order, thank you Lord Long En, long live long live long live!"

Taking the imperial decree with both hands, Zhu Hongchen got up, and said to the eunuch politely and respectfully, "My father-in-law came from a long way, you have worked hard all the way, please go to the front hall for tea!"

"Our family came here by decree. Now that the imperial decree has been delivered, we must return to Beijing immediately to reply to the decree, and we will not disturb Mr. Zhu!" After the eunuch finished speaking, he pointed to the eight guards beside him, "These eight guards are the emperor's servants. I hope Master Zhu will make good arrangements for the reward to Princess Yushan!"

"I will remember my father-in-law's words, I will definitely!" Zhu Hongchen said with a smile.

The housekeeper, Zhu Wu, had already prepared the bank notes, and took the opportunity to stuff them into the eunuch's sleeve. Then the eunuch smiled, "Mr. Zhu, stay a while, our family is leaving!"

The eunuch came quickly, and walked quickly. With a wave of his hand, he took away the imperial guards protecting him, leaving behind eight guards who looked indifferent and stood like stern.

As soon as the eunuch left, everyone immediately congratulated Zhu Hongchen.

"Congratulations, Lord City Master, He Xi, Lord!"

"Haha... Everyone is happy and happy, let's go, today, we must drink to our hearts' content, and we will not return without getting drunk!" Zhu Hongchen laughed and invited everyone back to the front hall.
