Fight the Giants

  Chapter 507 Everyone's thoughts

  I don’t know if Emperor Yongkang was in a good mood, or he felt that he had killed too much in the past. After sealing off all the soldiers who had made great contributions to the peace of Annan, he pardoned some people and rewarded some people.

  First, the eldest grandson of the emperor was made the grandson of the emperor, and then Mu Xin, the son-in-law captain, was named.

  Princess Changning's only son, Mu Jie, was granted the title of Commander of the Left Guard of Jinwu, with a real salary of one thousand stones.

Emperor Yongkang's four princesses, three first princesses, the first two will marry Lord Marquis, and the other will inherit the title of Marquis of his father in the future. Being granted a title, although the glory and wealth are not close enough, they are still much better than ordinary people.

   This time he won the seal, which will make Xiao Mu Jie happy. Tete ran to Huo's house and shared the good news with Huo Nian.

   "I'm now receiving the third-rank salary! Amazing!" The little guy looked up with pride.

   "Wow!" Little stars appeared in Huo Nian's eyes.

   "You're only seven years old, are you going to be an official?" It seems that you didn't become an official at such a young age.

   "No, this is a false job. It was granted to me by my emperor's grandfather. My father said that he just received money and didn't work, hehe."

   "Wow, that's really great!" He also thought about receiving money and not working.

  Xiao Mu Jie became more and more proud in Huo Nian's wow.

   "But what is the left guard of Jinwu, and what does the commander do?"

   "I know, I know!" Mu Jie jumped up excitedly, knowing that brother Huo Nian would ask, but he specifically asked his father.

   "Are there many soldiers in my dynasty?" Seeing Huo Nian nodding, Mu Jie began to spread the word.

   "There are so many soldiers that they can't fit in one place, so they are divided into different guards. There are about 5,000 people in a guard. The biggest officer in charge of them is the commander."

   "The commander is the biggest officer in the guard?" Huo Nian's eyes widened.

   "Yeah!" Mu Jie nodded his head with a smug expression. It seems that he is the Commander-in-Chief now.

"There are many of these guards, some in the capital and some from other places. The left guard of Jinwu is the guard that guards the capital, and is the emperor's personal guard. The emperor has twenty-two personal guards, and these guards are dedicated to protecting The imperial city protects the emperor. It's important, it's important!"

   "Wow! Then you can get a job when you grow up?"

   "I don't know. It depends on the arrangement of the court. My father said that if I have a seal, I won't have to take the imperial examination in the future!" Mu Jie breathed a sigh of relief.

   "Wow, do you still read?"

  Mu Jie nodded his head: "I want to study. My father said that even if you have a seal, you must study and be a noble person useful to the court. He also said that I can go to the Imperial College to study!"

   "Ah, you're going to study at the Imperial College? Don't you want to study with us?" Huo Nian was a little bit reluctant.

"Guozijian can only enter the school at the age of eight, and I can study with you for a year. My father agreed. When you are not in the capital, I will only be taught by my husband at home. It is too boring to study alone. I I still want to live in your house and go to school with you."

  Mu Jie was locked at home and read books for several months, facing Mr. shaking his head alone, which made him very bored. After finally getting Huo Nianpan back to Beijing, he couldn't wait to escape.

   "Really? That's great! We can study together again. Come on, I'll show you the present I bought you!"

  The two children jumped up and down to see the gift.

  Mu Jie was fascinated by the travel notes written by Huo Nian, "It would be great if I could go too." Hearing what Huo Nian told about his experiences along the way, he was so fascinated that he didn't even want to go home.

  Bringing a bunch of presents back to Mu's house.

   After Mu Xin and Yan Shi saw it, they were very satisfied with the Huo family. Seeing that Mu Jie couldn't stay at home, they wanted to live in Huo's house, so they packed him up that night and sent him there the next day.

  The two friends happily went to school together again.

  At the gate of Zhangjia in the inner city, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wu are instructing their servants to change the plaque on the gate.

  There was a lot of noise at the gate, so lively. Mrs. Wu still felt that her voice was not loud enough, so she ordered her servants to do this and then to do that, wishing that all the people in the capital would come to see their house to change the plaques.

   Their home is no longer Xincheng Hou's Mansion, but the British Duke's Mansion. On the dark plaque, there are a few gold-plated characters "British Government" shining brightly, which looks grand and noble no matter how you look at it.

   Mrs. Wang looked at it with a good eye, and only felt that life was complete. Apart from Empress Xu's natal Dingguo Mansion in the whole capital, who else's family can compare to hers?

  She has three sons and one daughter, and her daughter is a noble concubine in the palace. The queen is gone, and her daughter is in charge of everything in the palace. The three sons are all promising, and they all hold important positions in the army. The eldest son also earned a duke title for the family.

  The capital is full, who has her wealth? Which woman is so good at giving birth?

  Ms. Wu is even more complacent, the man is the Duke, she is the wife of the Duke, and the son is the future Duke!

  It doesn't matter how poor her natal family is, so what if she doesn't have an imperial order, so what if she doesn't have a dowry, won't this huge Duke's mansion be hers in the future?

   Those who look down on her, don't they want to salute her, the wife of the country, to see her face?

  Wu just wanted to look up to the sky and laugh a few times. It's better to be born well than to marry well.

   "Be careful, you have to be steady, if something goes wrong, even ten of you won't be able to pay for it!" Mrs. Wu bossed around to several servants who hung plaques, posing like a grand lady of a state.

   Seeing her bluffing, as if she had never seen the world, Mrs. Wang was not happy.

   "If you are capable, why don't you hang up?"

  Ms. Wu gritted her teeth and hated secretly. If a dead old woman is blessed, she will not enjoy her blessings. What's wrong with being an old lady who is around her knees and enjoys the blessings? She is now the Duke's wife, and Zhongfu still refuses to hand it over to her.

  But Mrs. Wu didn't dare to challenge Mrs. Wang, so she just smiled and said, "Aren't I afraid that they will be careless?"

Wang's other two daughter-in-laws, Hou and Xiao Wu, smoothed things over with a smile: "Oh, this plaque looks expensive, and our family will be honored by the eldest brother and sister-in-law. Congratulations, sister-in-law, this dynasty will be the state. The princess is gone, this is a blessing that many people can't even hope for."

   Mrs. Wu was very happy to be praised, and the corner of her mouth raised a proud fox, "In a few days, I will have a banquet at home. I won't be able to handle it by myself. I need the help of my two younger siblings."

   "Don't worry. This is a happy event for our family. We will help my sister-in-law to treat guests well. We dare not go west if my sister-in-law points out."

  Yunnan Mufu is also exchanging plaques happily.

  Different from the British government in the capital, Mu's house changed the plaques on the day of the banquet, which made all the guests feel happy.

   Mu Sheng was complimented by all the guests, and felt that his life had reached its peak. Even his father and his elder brother hadn't reached the height, but he, Mu Sheng, reached it with ease. I just feel complacent.

  Jun's family was surrounded by a group of noble ladies, even the princesses of the fiefdoms in Yunnan, and the wives of the chieftains came to congratulate her. Jun's family felt that she was all right except that she did not have the order of the Duke's wife.

   Man Yunnan and Man Southwest, who wouldn't consider her the wife of the Duke's Mansion? Who remembers the one in Beijing?

  Turning his head to look at the son who was entertaining the guests by the Duke's side, his heart became even hotter.

   This mansion can only belong to her and her son, whoever dares to rob him, she will chop him up, no matter what the cost.
