Chapter 829 Who Dare To Reach Out (Please Subscribe Monthly Pass)

"Congratulations, Mr. Jiang...it shouldn't be Marquis Tianbo."

The old man smiled lightly and said, "Tianbohou, accept the order and thank you."

"The imperial court has its own rules of etiquette. Now that you are a prince, you don't need to kneel down and thank you, just stand up."

The old man also kindly reminded him that it was a gesture of goodwill to Jiang Zhou.

"Excuse me... I can't accept the order."

Jiang Zhou's light voice surprised everyone present.

While making the old man slightly startled, he felt displeased suddenly.

Frowning slightly, he said lightly: "Tian Bohou, do you want to resist the edict?"

"Don't dare."

Jiang Zhou raised his head, and also said indifferently: "The lower officials have little talent and learning, but they are just lucky enough to make achievements of size, which is insignificant. I am frightened by His Majesty's grace and wrong love, and I am named a Marquis."

"If it's just a false name, it's fine, but I don't dare to have the audacity to take a post in Beijing, so as not to spoil the state affairs, and also mistake the prince, and make the world laugh."

"..."

Everyone present was silent for a while.

Beside him, Mei Qingchen opened his eyes wide open, as if seeing a god.

Good guy, this kid is even more brazen than Mei and others.

Doesn't this mean that he accepted all the rewards as they were ordered, but he didn't want to do anything at all?
Jiang Zhou looked calm.

But he made up his mind to be shameless.

Neither can he.

Now that Jiangdu Sword Prison has entered his hands, Jiangdu is his back garden, and he will never allow others to get involved.

If you are a Marquis, you will be famous as a teacher, and you can save a lot of trouble if he controls Jiang.

It's just that he didn't expect that Dimang would give him the title of young teacher.

This is even better.

As for entering Beijing?

That place is a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, even if Jiang Zhou is relying on himself now, he dare not go there.

Gou is in Jiangdu, playing and beating little monsters safely and happily, isn't it good to get promoted?

In fact, this is just one of the reasons.

The place of Yujing is in the world, the center of the vortex.

No matter what you do, it will be magnified countless times, and your hands will be tied.

Moreover, the Daji has been in the country for nearly ten thousand years, and various forces and factors are intertwined.

It's simply impossible to figure it out.

It's better to be in Jiangdu and let him do whatever he wants.

Maybe in the future, Daji, a behemoth, will be rotten, and he can still be the pillar of the southern sky of Daji, the cornerstone of the town, and turn the tide...

He is going to be a "loyal minister of the Great Ji"!

The old man who declared the decree was also shocked by his shamelessness and fell silent for a long time.

After a long while, he said: "Tianbohou is indeed Li Dazai's favorite student, he really excels in blue."

Li Dongyang refused the imperial edict several times in the past and has been in his care for many years.

But in the end, he was completely rejected. Not only did he reject many appointments and conferments, but he also refused all the rewards from the court.

This kid is good, he accepts all the rewards from the officials and nobility, and he has no intention of refusing even the corresponding property.

Although the old man was secretly angry, he felt numb for a while.

Since the beginning of Ji... no, in all dynasties, there has never been such a precedent.

Such things as refusal to edict also happen from time to time.

How to deal with it depends on the situation.

If your reputation is big enough, or your backing is strong enough, then you are qualified to refuse the imperial edict.

At most, it's just a bit of persuasion, and then taking back a reward, it's just a headache for the emperor to go back.

Those who refuse the edict will get a good name instead.

However, no one has ever had the face to ask officials for money after rejecting the imperial edict.

Although Jiang Zhou's reputation is not enough, he has a good teacher.

And I heard that he is a monk of the second rank without gods.

Although for the great Confucian scholars and great sages, they never look up to monks, but it has to be said that after reaching this level, they do have some capital to talk to the court.

He wants to refuse the imperial edict, but to be honest, it is very difficult.

What troubled the old man was whether he should keep these rewards...or keep...

It seems that he wants to take it back but there is no way to take it back.

After all, this is an imperial decree, and only His Majesty can take it back.

Who would have thought that there were such brazen people in the world?
Although the old man spoke politely, anyone could hear the irony in his words.

Secretly ridiculed Li Dongyang and Jiang Zhou for not being upright and crooked.

It satirizes Li Dongyang for refusing the imperial edict to support him, deceiving the world and stealing his name.

It is also ridiculed that Jiang Zhou is in the same line, and he is even more shameless. He wants merit, fame, and profit.

"This lord has too much reputation, I am ashamed to be an official."

Jiang Zhou said expressionlessly: "By the way, my lord is going back to Beijing soon, and I have some advice from the lower officials. Although Chu Ni has made an initial decision, there are still a few bandits taking the opportunity to make trouble. Yangzhou has not been very peaceful recently. Your lord is on the way. Be careful, if you encounter thieves, it will not be a good idea."

"Do you want me to send someone to escort your lord back to Beijing?"

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then there's no need. I came from a long way from the capital and brought a few capable people with me. With them, mere thieves are not a problem."

While speaking, there were a few unremarkable people behind the old man, who had already put their hands on the handle of the knife on their waist.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the field froze.

Cold sweat broke out on Mei Qingchen's forehead.

I knew this kid would not be safe, and sure enough, he was going to cause trouble again.

Just refuse the imperial edict, and even dare to threaten the imperial envoy face to face.

What a good child before, how did he become like this?

Is it possible to be so arrogant after becoming the primordial spirit and Faxiangzhen?
"Who is this……?"

Jiang Zhou, on the other hand, smiled faintly, and looked at the leader of those men carrying knives.

These few people looked ordinary.

Only the hands are slightly strange.

Unlike ordinary swordsmen, the tiger's mouth is extremely rough.

The hands of these people are all as smooth as jade, not even like men's hands.

The breath is not visible, but in Jiang Zhou's eyes, it is like a closed oven, hidden but not exposed, but there is a terrifying heat inside.

Especially the person at the head is like a volcano that has been brewing for an unknown number of years.

The old man turned his head to look at the man, then lowered his head with fists folded and said, "I'm just Lord Song's personal bodyguard, a martial artist, don't mention his humble name."

"A martial artist? What a martial artist."

Jiang Zhou secretly wrote down this person, and said to the old man:

"Since that's the case, the next official can rest assured. I'm sorry for the inconvenience of sending it away. My lord, please."

"Tianbohou doesn't seem to welcome the old man?"

The old man smiled: "Tianbohou, since you don't want to obey the edict, the old man will tell His Majesty the truth."

"But the old man is here, but there is one more important thing."

His smile subsided slightly and he said, "I would also like Marquis Tianbo to go to the government office together and hand over Jiangdu's affairs. Before the new eunuch of the imperial court arrives, Jiangdu will be temporarily in charge of the old man."

The atmosphere that had been relaxed just now suddenly sank again.

Everyone looked at Jiang Zhou nervously.

Who is in charge of Jiangdu is a matter of personal concern to everyone in Sujingsi and some accompanying officials present.

Jiang Zhou ignored it and said, "Your Majesty has a decree to let your lord take over Jiangdu?"

The old man stroked his beard and said: "Appointment and dismissal of the hundred palms come from the Ceremony Court of the Tianguan Mansion. As the Censor of the Ceremony Capital, the old man has the right and responsibility to stabilize Jiangdu."

Jiang Zhou smiled: "Then there is no more?"

His face darkened slightly: "Jiangducheng is my official who broke into the Chu Palace alone and forced Chu Ni to hand it back. Except for His Majesty, whoever dares to stretch out his hand, I will personally chop off his paw..."
