Monument Yangmen

Chapter 49
"Special gift, Wang Shilong, Captain Zhenwei, Captain Xunqi..."

"Special gift, Shi Yuansun, Captain Zhenwei, Captain Xunqi..."

"Special gift, Cao Wei, enshrined official of Dongtou, cavalry captain Xunfei..."

"Special gift, Yang Yanzhao, enshrined officer in Xitou, cavalry captain Xunyun..."

……

The official system of the Northern Song Dynasty inherited a part of the Tang system, and added a lot on this basis, so the division of official positions was very detailed.They are official officials, civil officials, martial officials, honors, and nobles.

It is also because of this that the officials of the Song Dynasty often carry a lot of official positions on their backs.Among them, only the official is the official post, and only the official has administrative power.The rest are basically titles. In addition to showing identity and status, at most one more salary will be received.

Zhenwei Xiaowei, from the sixth rank of Wu Sanguan; Qi Duwei, from the fifth rank of Xun.

Wang Shilong and Shi Yuansun's official positions are indeed high, but they are the ones who only take money and do nothing.

Cao Wei and Yang Yanzhao are different. Although the Dongtou enshrined officials and Xitou enshrined officials are only at the eighth rank, they are real officials with administrative power.

Yang Yanzhao is only fifteen years old, and Cao Wei is only 14 years old. At this age, he has obtained the real power officer from the eighth rank, and his future is destined to be brilliant.

Didn't you see that Cao Bin and Yang Ye, who were originally dark faces, were all smiling?
The only ones present who were not happy were the members of the Pan family.Especially Pan Bao.

Pan Bao, who was complacent about the rewards just now, became unhappy instantly after comparing the rewards of Yang Yanzhao and the others.

At that time, when he was 15 years old, he was still a white body bearing the son of the grand master's family.

Jealousy is a strange emotion.

It can make people frame or even resent a person who has no grievances with them.

In short, in Pan Bao's heart, the emotion of jealousy began to make trouble.

As Yang Yansi had guessed before, Concubine Pan Guifei saw that the four were rewarded and wanted to stop them, but her father shook her head to stop them.

Among the parents of the four little guys in the audience, Pan Renmei didn't care if she offended one or two.But to offend four at once, that would be death.

"I thank your Majesty Long En!"

Cao Wei, Yang Yanzhao, Wang Shilong, and Shi Yuansun thanked Zhao Guangyi for his generous gift, and they all excitedly went to their parents to report the good news.

After the civil and military officials presented their birthday gifts, it was the turn of the foreign envoys to present their birthday gifts.

Yang Yansi witnessed with his own eyes how bold the Great Song Dynasty was.

The birthday gift presented by Fanbang was pitifully low in value, but the return gift from the Great Song Dynasty was staggeringly rich.

For example, the Dangxiang, which is close to the northwest and has just attached to it, has donated thousands of furs and a few exotic beauties. In terms of value, it is around [-] yuan.Zhao Guangyi returned a generous gift worth ten thousand taels of silver, which doubled tenfold.

No wonder these foreign countries were more active than the civil and military officials rewarded by the Song court when Zhao Guangyi celebrated his birthday.Even the worst-tempered envoy of the Liao Kingdom couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear after receiving the gift in return.

Made!What a super fool!

Yang Yansi felt that if he went to the sea to occupy more than a dozen islands, establish a few small countries, and pay tribute on time every year, he would definitely get a lot of money.

A grand dinner came to an end when the moon was shining.

Yang Yansi dejectedly followed the Yang family out of the palace gate.

"I thought I would be the biggest winner of this banquet. Unexpectedly, I'm not as good as a group of barbarians whose heads are full of muscles."

"What are you mumbling about?"

At some point, Zhao Pu appeared beside Yang Yansi.

"It's nothing..." Yang Yansi changed the topic, "Master Xiang has a lot of harvest tonight! I'm a first-rank official, I'm envious of the boy."

When Zhao Pu heard this, he smiled like a fox who stole a chicken.

"The old man just happened to meet at the right time. Speaking of which, you have a share of the credit. By the way, you made the last birthday cake, right?"

When it comes to birthday cakes, Yang Yansi feels helpless.

He also didn't expect that Zhao Guangyi would give the cake such a silly name at the end.

Yang Yansi smiled and said: "The boy just wants to help Cao Wei and those three little guys get an official position, so that they don't have to follow my ass every day to bother me."

Zhao Pu shook his head and smiled, but did not expose Yang Yansi's lie.With Anan's support, he got into the carriage and wandered back to the mansion in Bianjing city.

The emperor's birthday was celebrated by the whole country, and the curfew in Bianjing was lifted tonight.

The carriage walked through the streets and alleys along the way, and the streets were very lively with pedestrians.

Back at Tianbo Yang's Mansion, Yang Ye didn't give any lectures. Yang Yansi fell asleep after waking up and taking care of him after simply washing up.

The next morning.

When Yang Yansi woke up, he found that the entire Tianbo Yang Mansion was beaming.

When I went to the main hall to have breakfast, I found that the whole family was sitting at the table, and there was no shortage of them.

As the youngest and the latest male in the family, before taking his seat, Yang Yansi saluted his parents, elder brother, and sister-in-law one by one.

After the whole family arrived, Yang Ye began to lecture.

"Thanks to His Majesty's respect, Da Lang has been promoted to the title, and Liu Lang has also obtained an official position. Our Yang Mansion can be said to be a double blessing, and we should celebrate it. However, you must remember that all of these are from His Majesty. You must be self-restraining, return to the courtesy, and be dedicated to your duties. Do you understand?"

The brothers of the Yang family clasped their fists together.

"Understood!"

Yang Yansi obviously noticed that Yang Yanzhao was blinking at him. Obviously, he did not agree with Yang Ye's words.

In Yang Yanzhao's heart, although his official position was bestowed by the emperor, it is better to say that Yang Yansi helped him plan it.

"Liulang, cheating on Gou Rong and enjoying the Lord, this kind of thing can't be done in the future. My Yang family inherits loyalty and bravery. Even if we want to seek glory and wealth, we should get it from the battlefield instead of relying on self-inflicted charm. Pet."

"The child knows..."

"Qilang, you have passed the three examinations of Taixue, you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, continue to work hard, and don't get infected with some bad habits of scholars."

As the owner of Tianbo Yang's Mansion, as long as Yang Ye wanted to know what happened in Tianbo Yang's Mansion, he would know everything.

Obviously, he knew that Yang Yanzhao had participated in Yang Yanzhao's gift on the emperor's birthday.

He was beating Yang Yansi.

Yang Yansi admitted that the glory and wealth that Yang Ye said needs to be obtained from the battlefield, which sounds very encouraging.

Yang Ye did the same.

The emperor's favor to Yang Ye was obtained by Yang Ye's combat exploits with one knife and one gun.

However, Yang Ye didn't know that the Great Song Dynasty couldn't accommodate heroes with great military exploits...

Throughout the Song Dynasty, all heroes with outstanding military exploits basically did not end well.

Such as Di Qing, such as Yue Fei...

Yang Yansi could only hold these words in his heart, unable to say them out.

Yang Yansi knew very well that Yang Ye was a loyal, brave and upright person.

In his heart, the people who look down on the most are the people who are in the middle of nowhere.

However, Yang Yansi is doomed to become a man who runs around like dogs.

Yang Yansi didn't have to choose this path, it was already doomed when he vowed to save the Yang family.
