Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People
Chapter 117 Unprecedented, reward!
Chapter 117 Unprecedented, reward!
"What did you say! Fan Xin was found?" Manager Geng who was stationed in front of the palace asked in disbelief.
The red feather messenger nodded with chapped lips: "Immediate report from Youzhou [-] Miles, traces of Fan Xin were found in Xiaolianzi Village."
After confirming that Fan Xin had been found, Manager Geng quickly directed several Qianniu Guards to help up the Red Feather Messenger, and he ran all the way into the hall.
"Queen Mother, good news! Great news!"
Wu Zetian signaled the ministers to postpone the discussion of government affairs, looked at Manager Geng and smiled.
"What good news makes you so upset?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, news came from Youzhou that Fan Shaoqing's whereabouts had been found. The Red Feather Messenger is waiting outside the palace!"
Wu Zetian's smile faltered and she stood up suddenly with an excited expression.
"Let the messenger in quickly!"
"Yes, Queen Mother!" Manager Geng bowed and said in a high-pitched voice.
"The Queen Mother has a decree to send the Hong Ling messenger to visit her!"
"The Queen Mother has a decree to send the Hong Ling messenger to visit her!"
Amidst the loud singing of the guards, a red-feathered messenger who was sweating profusely was helped in.
As soon as she entered the palace, Wu Zetian couldn't wait to ask: "I want to ask you where Fan Xin is now?"
Last night, she was still wondering whether the sky did not want her to ascend the throne and proclaim herself emperor, so she took away Fan Xin, the humiliated tiger minister.
I didn't expect to hear this good news at the beginning of the morning.
The Red Feather Messenger knelt on the ground, holding a secret message in both hands and gasping.
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, Fan Xin was at his home in Xiaolianzi Mountain, Changping County, when the Youzhou Internal Guards discovered him."
"According to observation, there are no signs of injury on his body!"
Wu Zetian was startled, and then Long Yan was delighted: "Okay, okay, he is indeed a lucky star. He was not even injured when he fell from the cliff. Who else in this world can hurt him?"
"Send an order to go to Youzhou Internal Guard to look for meritorious service. All officers will be promoted to one level and rewarded with ten acres of fertile land!"
The ministers looked at each other and shouted reluctantly: "The Queen Mother is wise!"
"But..." The red feather messenger hesitated.
"If you have something to say, it doesn't matter. I forgive you!" Wu Zetian said with a smile on his face.
"But according to the internal guard, Fan Xin's family seemed to be having a very difficult time. In order to cook a delicious meal for Fan Xin, his mother went out late at night and borrowed some eggs."
"Fan Xin couldn't bear the suffering of his parents and sister, and even pawned the only valuable cotton robe he had on him."
Upon hearing these words, the discussion in the hall stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at the Red Feather Messenger with surprise in their eyes.
He is a dignified fourth-rank Qianniu Guards general, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Pingbei Bo.
In order to improve the life of his family, he even pawned his clothes.
This is too unbelievable. If it weren't for Fan Xin, they would even think it was fake news.
Unlike other ministers, Wu Zetian was deeply moved.
She didn't expect that Fan Xin would rather pawn his clothes than use his power to benefit the family.
This integrity.
This conduct.
How many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty could match this kind of loyalty?
After thinking this, Wu Zetian slowly stood up and said to the ministers.
"Fan Xin is only in his twenties this year, which is the time when Numa Xianyi is in high spirits."
"He could have been like those high-ranking officials in Chang'an, living a life of drunkenness and extravagance."
"But he didn't. A dignified fourth-rank official who respects his parents actually wants to pawn his clothes."
"My dear friends, don't you think this is a bit sad?" "I am ashamed of myself!" all the ministers said in unison, bowing and bowing.
"As long as you know the shame." Wu Zetian nodded and straightened up and said majestically.
"Shangguan Wan'er has proposed a decree. Fan Xin, the young minister of Dali Temple, has been honest and upright during his tenure and has made outstanding achievements. He will be given a special reward of eight high-quality Jiangnan brocade cotton robes and eight pairs of velvet brocade boots."
"His father, Fan Zhonghua, has made a special contribution to education and canonized as a fifth-rank Changping County male. His mother, Zhou, raised the wife of the fifth-rank county monarch. Her sister Fan Xiaolan made an exception and was promoted to a sixth-rank imperial wife."
Speaking of this, Wu Zetian took a deep breath and continued.
"Besides, the Fan family is not well-off, so they will be rewarded with three hundred stones of tribute rice, twenty altars of royal wine, ten cattle, a strong horse, and a plaque of the Zhongliang family!"
"Princess Taiping was ordered, and the right-guard general Xue Huaiyi led three thousand guards to personally deliver it to the Fan family."
"After the handover is completed, go to Heisha City immediately to negotiate with the Turks about borrowing troops to encircle and suppress the Khitans. There must be no mistake!"
"I obey the decree!" the civil and military officials knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
Since sending an envoy to the Turks was a major event, the civil and military officials did not go home after the dissolution of the dynasty, but followed Wu Zetian to Yingtianmen.
At this time, three armies gathered here, with long spears standing everywhere, all wearing heavy armor.
Seeing the emperor and his ministers walking out of the city gate, the leaders Princess Taiping and Xue Huaiyi immediately knelt on one knee and shouted loudly.
"I see the Queen Mother, long live my queen, long live, long live!"
Followed by three thousand guards: "Long live, long live, long live!"
"All the troops are at peace!"
"Thank you Queen Mother!"
After the soldiers stood up from the snow, Wu Zetian walked up to Princess Taiping and patted the snowflakes on her body and said gently.
"This mission to the Turks is difficult and dangerous. Remember not to act on your temper. If you have any difficulties, you can ask Fan Xin."
"Although he is young, his courage and wisdom are unparalleled. He is a great helper at critical moments."
Since Xue Shao died in prison, Princess Taiping had become quite haggard. She nodded with a pale face when she heard this.
"After knowing my mother, my sons and ministers will take state affairs as a priority."
"Well, you can have more contact with Fan Xin when you have nothing to do. He is not married yet and is a rare talent."
Wu Zetian gave a few words of advice, and her eyes turned to the aggrieved Xue Huaiyi.
"You too, you must stay calm when things happen and don't be rash."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I practiced iron sand palm at the age of three, worked in the oil pan at the age of ten, and by the age of 20, I have already mastered the art of crushing boulders from my chest with one hand."
"A few Turks have not been taken seriously by the poor monk! If they dare to make mistakes, the young monk only needs to release the mighty dragon once to wipe them out!" Xue Huaiyi said nonchalantly.
He is a proud and arrogant person, so naturally he will not take a little Turk seriously.
Seeing this, Wu Zetian shook his head helplessly: "Okay, it's time for you to set off for Youzhou!"
"Take care, Queen Mother, I'll be leaving soon!" Princess Taiping and Xue Huaiyi bowed and got into the carriage.
Soon, the three thousand guardsmen slowly left Yingtian Gate and headed into the distance amidst the melodious sound of horns.
Looking at the retreating figures of the army, Di Renjie stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"The Fan family is just a small family, but the queen mother asked the princess of the current dynasty to deliver rewards. Looking through the history, there is no such exception."
"Could it be that you want to marry Princess Taiping to Fan Xin?"
Wu Zetian turned her head and glanced at him, laughing and scolding: "I can't hide anything from you, an old fox."
"Yes, a femoral tiger like Fan Xin will naturally not be able to let his wealth flow to outsiders."
"The Turks and their party are bound to be in many dangers. Don't you think this is a good opportunity for the two of you to get along?"
The king and his ministers looked at each other.
Suddenly burst into laughter...
