Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over.

Chapter 284 People coming from the capital
Jiang Ning knelt down. Seeing that Dekang didn't move for a long time, he looked up and saw question marks all over his forehead, "Father-in-law?"

Dekang came back to his senses, cleared his throat, and shouted, "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Guang'en Bo Jiang's appearance and wisdom, profound understanding of righteousness, and meritorious service to the country are a model for women in the Qi Kingdom. He is granted the title of Marquis of Guang'en. Hereditary, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of silver, two Zhuangzi houses in the capital, four shops, and brocade.”

"Master Marquis, congratulations!" Dekang respectfully presented the imperial edict with both hands.

Jiang Ning quickly accepted the order, stood up and gave some rewards to Dekang and others, and asked politely: "Eunuch, why did the emperor suddenly designate me as a Marquis of Guang'en?"

Is it such a trivial matter to be granted a title now? She thought that being able to earn a count in this life was already a waste of time.

Dekang looked at her and smiled meaningfully: "Because Lord Marquis is so lucky!"

Jiang Ning didn't understand. Seeing that Dekang was not in a hurry to leave, he quickly invited people to take a seat and ordered his grandma to watch tea.

Dekang chuckled and said: "Last night after the Marquis and others left the palace, the Emperor Liu Rui and Prince Ding discussed matters in the Xuanzheng Palace until dawn. The Emperor only rested when the Za family left the palace. It happened that the Za family could also be lazy and rub the Marquis. of joy.”

Jiang Ning was happy, "The relationship is good, my father-in-law must not have eaten yet! I will let Datou cook in person and make you a table of his specialty dishes."

Yang Datou took Liu Ye away without saying a word.

They were the only two people left in the hall.

The smile on Dekang's face suddenly disappeared, and he said with emotion: "It's better to have a prosperous life in the capital! Last night, His Highness Prince Ding carefully told the emperor about the situation in the northwest, and only then did the Zajia know how sad the lives of the common people and soldiers in the northwest were.

In the past, there were no taro and white sweet potato discovered by the Marquis. Even if the people did not have enough food, they could go up the mountain and rely on wild fruits and vegetables to satisfy their hunger. However, in the northwest, the sky is filled with yellow sand and there is a lack of water all year round. Let alone wild vegetables and fruits, they want to find it. It’s hard to find decent weeds.

Of course, this is not the case in all places, but this is the case where His Royal Highness Prince Ding is stationed. It is said that the soldiers and horses have to go first before the food and grass are used. If there is not enough food and grass, how can we fight a war?
But His Highness Prince Ding kept all these things secret. When they didn't have enough food and grass, they found ways to hunt in distant places and plow the land to grow food themselves, trying not to trouble the court as much as possible. However, in this way, the soldiers could not fight with all their strength.

This was also the most troublesome problem for King Ding. Fortunately, with the sweet potato and white potato, a major problem for the common people and soldiers in the northwest was solved, so King Ding dared to tell the truth.

The Emperor felt uncomfortable for a long time after hearing those words. Although the Marquis did not go to the battlefield, he still achieved military exploits. His Highness Prince Ding is extremely grateful to you. Your Highness Prince Ding owes half of your contribution to the title of Marquis.

The other half is because you gave birth to a wonderful son. "

"Huh?" Jiang Ning's grateful expression instantly turned into confusion, "Father-in-law, what do you mean by this?"

She had so many sons, so she brought her eldest son out. The emperor only came into contact with Yang Datou. Could it be that it was Yang Datou who contributed?
Dekang chuckled and said: "This is related to the future. Does the Marquis know why the emperor dare not make a knight easily? If you don't understand, you can take a look at Anguo Gongfu.

No matter how great the achievements and abilities of the first-generation ancestors are, they may raise unfilial descendants, and the emperor is also afraid! If you are given a title and your descendants fail to live up to your expectations, wouldn’t you be making yourself miserable?

It is easy to confer a title, but it is necessary to weigh various pros and cons to reduce the title. What does the emperor want? Are you right? "

Jiang Ning was thoughtful.

Dekang smiled happily and said, "Your eldest son has a kind-hearted temperament. He doesn't cause trouble but is not afraid of it. What's more rare is that he always maintains his true nature and is not blinded by glory and wealth. The emperor chatted with him in the palace that day. Once, I praised the eldest son to the Za family several times.

And I have met your eldest grandson, the Emperor, a few times. He is a smart and lovely person. He has been educated by you and the eldest son. He can’t be wrong even if he thinks about it. After such considerations, he came up with this decree. "Jiang Ning suddenly understood and quickly stood up to give the blessing gift, "Thank you so much, father-in-law, for clearing up the confusion. I will definitely teach future generations well and live up to the emperor's expectations. "

Dekang was satisfied with Jiang Ning's intelligence and lucidity, and left after a sumptuous breakfast at the Guang'en Marquis Mansion.

As soon as Dekang left, Jiang Ning immediately asked Yang Datou to clean up and prepare a cart of specialties from his hometown to send to Prince Ding's Mansion to express his gratitude. Then he repaired a few letters and sent them to Quzhou Mansion.

In February in Quzhou Prefecture, the chill is gone, the sun is rising, and everything is red and green.

Yang Erdan got up early and went to work in the workshop as usual. As soon as he walked out of the house gate, he saw Butler Zhu leading a man running towards him out of breath, "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, someone is coming from the capital!"

Yang Erdan was startled and hurried forward to meet him.

The other party hurriedly saluted, "Second Young Master, young Song Yi, I am sending you a message on the order of the Marquis."

"Master Hou?" Yang Erdan and Butler Zhu were both confused.

Song Yi said with a smile: "The Marquis was posthumously granted the title of Marquis by the Emperor on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Now he is the Marquis of Guangen. The Emperor also rewarded me with many things. These Marquises have all been written in the letters."

Yang Erdan was overjoyed, "Quick! Show me the letter quickly, housekeeper, and ask the second young lady to come over."

After giving the order, he opened the envelope with trembling hands, read it carefully, and burst into tears.

Xu Nuoyan supported his waist with one hand and the other hand was supported by the maid as he crossed the threshold. Seeing Yang Erdan being so excited, he hurried over to pick up the letter.

After watching it, her whole body was trembling, and she was so excited that she couldn't even speak, "Aniang. Aniang is so amazing!"

Butler Zhu suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked: "Second Young Master, Second Young Madam, should we tell this matter?"

After Yang Erdan thought carefully, he shook his head and said: "Forget it, such a big thing will definitely spread. It is estimated that the news will reach Quzhou Prefecture in a month or two. We should not be too high-profile, just like before Just like that, you can live your life as you want, but Ping'an County needs to be notified."

Yang Santie and Yang Sizhuang had been studying in Quzhou Academy before. This time they had to return to their hometown to take the county examination. Counting the days, the examination took place in these two days.

Yang Erdan was worried that this matter would affect his two younger brothers, so he discussed it with Xu Nuoyan and decided to go back to Ping'an County in person.

Song Yi still had letters to send, and he happened to be with Yang Erdan, and there was also a piece of rubble. The three of them were together, and the journey was not so boring.

"Brother Song, is the Baiwei Tower in Beijing really that powerful?" Ruishi's eyes lit up when he heard this, with a look of admiration on his face.

Song Yi nodded slightly, "The Marquis is really powerful. With so many people ridiculing him, he single-handedly overthrew the former An Guogong, the Bai family, and the Dong family. He was also granted a posthumous title by the emperor, opened the Baiwei Tower, and... Several powerful people have made good friends, and today’s Yang family is no longer the Yang family that no one cared about last year.”

Just from the tone of Song Yi's words, Yang Erdan could hear his admiration for Jiang Ning. He couldn't help but feel excited in his heart. He choked twice in his throat, his nose was slightly sore, and his fists under his sleeves clenched slightly, secretly telling himself, "Then It’s my grandma, my grandma, the pride of our family!”
