Chapter 189 (1/2)
I saw a few people in front of the road, followed by a group of young people riding tall horses, and then there are two gorgeous sedan chairs.
The sedan chair was surrounded by people, and a long line of men and horses fell behind.
Look at this situation, there are 50 or 60 population alone!
And look at these people's dress, that is called a bright yo! Men's eyes are dazzled!
”Is it not the emperor's tour of the south of the Yangtze River?” He guessed in a low voice that his feet had already given way to the side to give way to the team.
Naturally, the team passed by him. No one turned his head to look at him, whether it was the one who opened the road or the rear.
Helplessly, the man watched the team come to Gu Tuo's door.
Then, the first Gonger rushed to knock on the door: ”dare to ask is it the villagers Gu Tuo's house?”
Gu Tuo came out. ”I'm Gu Tuo. Are you?”
”The imperial court has a decree, and the villagers of gujia village, Changshou Town, Qingshan County, Jiangbian Province, receive the edict from Gu Tuo!”
On hearing this, all of them were awe inspiring.
So, she hurriedly gathered together the incense table. Xia Ying and the children came out together. The family knelt down on the Xiangtan money. The old eunuch with white beard and white hair came out of the sedan chair, slowly unfolded the bright yellow edict in his hand and began to read it word by word.
”It was carried by heaven, and the emperor ordered that...”
Then, a couple of crazy nonsense, just a few words about Gu Tuo's contribution to the capture of mountain bandits years ago, and then a praise that Xia Ying had never heard of. He almost boasted about Gu Tuo in a different way!
In the end
”The imperial edict gives Gu Tuo a hundred mu of good farmland and a hundred taels of gold, which is a tribute to him.”
After listening to this lengthy edict, Xia Ying kowtows with Gu Tuo. ”Long live my emperor
Seeing that Minghuang's edict was sent to Gu Tuo's hand, Xia Ying couldn't help looking at it more.
I didn't expect that she would have the chance to see the edict with her own eyes in her life!
Although the so-called imperial edict was not issued by the Emperor himself, it doesn't matter. At least in gujia village, this remote small place, the weight of this edict alone is enough!
Gu Tuo's face was calm. Even if the edict was in his hand, his hand did not shake even for a moment.
But the patriarch is happy and crazy!
He quickly took the initiative to step forward: ”a few officials, we have come from afar, hard work. Villain, let's kill chickens and ducks, and prepare a table for you
The one who read the edict glanced at him and turned away.
However, the disdain of his eyes is obvious.
Seeing this, the county magistrate who accompanied the proclamation said, ”in fact, the lower official has already ordered people to prepare the banquet in the county government office, and your bedroom has also been cleaned up. Now that the edict has been read out, let's turn back quickly! Otherwise, if we delay for a long time, I'm afraid it will be dark when we return to the county seat! ”
”Well, let's go.” Duke an nodded coolly.
A group of people on the mighty left.
Although the dislike is still a little embarrassing, it is still a pity to be abandoned by the clan leader.
