Chapter 345 The Imperial Edict Finally Arrives

After experiencing so many things, at this time, what the guests were thinking had nothing to do with the birthday banquet.

Unexpectedly, the Li family is so secretive. I don’t know when they have stepped into the royal family behind the scenes. The eldest grandson who has been away from home for twenty years seems to have a lot of friendship with the prince and even the princess. Is the matter really just that Li's eldest son eloped with someone else? Is there any other hidden secret?

After tonight, what kind of actions will the Chen family, who has always had a grudge against the Li family, do?

When Chen Yue was banished from the capital, was it the Li family who was behind it?

What happened tonight was so exciting that it was far beyond their expectations. A group of guests were brainstorming. The face of the housekeeper, Mrs. Fang, had turned from gloomy to pale. Behind her cheap nephew who had no background, suddenly Standing on top of the prince and princess, she changed from looking down to looking up. The psychological gap was so huge that it was like falling from heaven to hell. Even though there was her mother's family behind her, she still felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

When Fang was sitting on her seat in a daze, her eyes were blank, the guard of the princess palace looked at Li Yi with a smile on his face and asked: "The princess asked me to ask Mr. Li, the gift from the princess palace, Li Yi Are you satisfied, Master?"

Li Yi had to admit that although Li Xuan and Li Mingzhu would indeed cause some trouble for him, it was still the most suitable method.

Ever since he met the Miss Chen family that day, Li Yi knew that there would be no room for change for the Chen family and the Li family in the future. He could return to Qing'an Mansion, and the Li family's hands would not be able to reach there, but The Li family in the capital will face revenge from the Duke's government. There is a huge disparity in strength between the two families. It is obvious that the Li family will not be the one to persevere to the end.

A prince and a princess should be enough to make the Chen family fearful. The bigger the family, the more scruples they have. They won't offend anyone they can't afford to offend just for this matter.

With his worries solved, Li Yi looked at the man and asked again: "What else did the princess say?"

The man smiled and said: "The princess also said that it is impossible to realize all the rewards Mr. Li wants, so it is okay to give a discount."

"Discount?" Confusion appeared on Li Yi's face: "What do you mean?"

"This ------ Your Highness the Princess didn't say anything." The man shook his head and said, "Your Highness only said these two sentences. For the rest, Young Master Li should ask His Highness next time."

While I was wondering what Li Mingzhu's words meant, there was a sudden commotion in front of me, and the next moment, most of the guests stood up.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, no, are you still coming?

Counting on his fingers, apart from the old monk, Li Xuan, and Li Mingzhu, he really didn't know anyone in the capital. There was so much movement in front, could it be that the Chen family came to cause trouble?

Unless the entire Chen family was crazy, the majestic Duke would not do such a shameless thing. Li Yi had thousands of thoughts running through his mind until he heard the sharp and thin voice, "Where is Li Yi?" "Why don't you come out quickly to receive the order?" His face suddenly turned pale.

It's over, everything is over...

If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of being noticed by thieves. It is not a good thing to be noticed by the king of a country. Li Yi sat down on the chair and had the urge to let Ruyi take him and fly out from here immediately.

Without anyone's instructions, everyone immediately stood up from their seats and stood on both sides to form a passage. The end of the passage was where Li Yi was.

Two eunuchs who delivered the order walked along the passage with their heads held high and said in a high-pitched voice: "Li County Lieutenant, please accept the order."

Li Yi raised his head and saw the two familiar eunuchs again.

"What are you still doing? Kneel down and receive the order!" Li Mingze walked over quickly and urged.

The situation was stronger than the others. Li Yi had no choice but to bend his knees. Everyone present, including his second uncle Li Mingze and the old lady, all knelt down with a crash. The little fat man didn't know why, so he raised his head and looked around. Soon He was pressed down by his mother.

"The imperial edict says: Li Yi, Lieutenant of Anxi County, improved torture, made horseshoes, invented cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and wound suturing techniques, benefited the common people, and blessed all peoples. He presented the divine punishment of heaven, defeated the Qi army, and contributed to the expansion of territory. .... I am honored to be crowned the son of Chang'an County. I am honored to be crowned with honor and glory. I am forever bestowed with the favor of God."

[Note: This Chang'an is not that Chang'an. I really can't think of a better name. 】

The eunuch who delivered the order said a lot of convoluted words, and Li Yi understood the first and last few sentences. The main idea was that he had done so many things before, and the credit was all saved for him. This time, he will be rewarded together. Don't be an Anxi County captain, don't go back to Qing'an Prefecture, the emperor allocated a piece of land in Chang'an County, and Li Yi will stay there as a small county magistrate from now on, and truly enter the ranks of the nobility.

Chang'an County and Kyoto are adjacent to each other. Maybe Li Yi can see the city wall from his own fiefdom. The Duke of Guo was transformed into the county, and he didn't mention tens of thousands of gold and thousands of hectares of fertile land. This discount was a bit big.

At this moment, Li Yi's mood calmed down. After all, His Majesty the Emperor knew that he was not destined to be an official. He just allowed him to be a social worm under his nose with peace of mind. In fact, he had known for a long time that such a day would come, and he had never been able to do so. I am so willing to face it, but I am afraid I won’t be able to escape it this time.

A smile appeared on the eunuch's face and he said, "Master Li, please accept the order."

Seeing that Li Yi had no reaction, Li Mingze suppressed the shock in his heart, tugged on his sleeve, and whispered: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and accept the order."

The eunuch handed the imperial edict to Li Yi respectfully and said, "Your Majesty has ordered that Li Xianzi enter the palace tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, someone will be sent to pick you up."

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict came and went quickly, leaving behind his robes and other items, and simply left the Li family, ruining the old lady's birthday banquet.

Who cares about the old lady's birthday now? The eldest grandson of the Li family was conferred a title by His Majesty, the Chang'an Xianzi, and the title of Li Mingze, the head of the Li family, is only a Xianzi.

The title of Jingguo is not granted without military merit. This is the first time that His Majesty has made an exception to grant a title in these years. What luck did the Li family have? After so many years of decline, is it finally going to rise?

Everyone just heard the description in the imperial edict. They were very unfamiliar with the description, but His Majesty was generous in praising his contribution, so it was impossible for this to be false...

"Congratulations, congratulations..."

"Two titles from one family, congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to Minister Li..."

"Li Xianzi is so young that he has been favored by the emperor, and his future is limitless."

------

------

When the waves in their hearts calmed down, everyone came forward to congratulate. The old lady's smile was brighter than ever. Although Li Mingze was still surprised, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Chang'an Xianzi, Chang'an Xianzi..." Fang murmured to herself in a seat behind everyone, her face pale.
