The best ring

Wu Fan's face was also full of smiles. After all, this imperial edict was a good thing for him, and the rewards were generous. Moreover, after entering the capital, there would be fiefdom rewards, which made him even more excited.

Although he can do whatever he wants in Hermit Village now, there is no official recognition of it, and the relationship with the old village chief is only a cooperative relationship. This place does not entirely belong to him. He only has development rights, not ownership. Moreover, the development process However, the interests of the indigenous people must not be harmed.

However, the fiefdom was different. He had the final say on everything in the fiefdom. Although it still belonged to the emperor in name, he was no different from the emperor there. He could build whatever he wanted.

Obviously, Wu Fan didn't know much about the fiefdoms of Yanfeng Country and thought too much about the fiefdoms.

However, while he was happy, Wu Fan also had doubts in his heart. He always felt that when he was asked to go to Beijing this time, it might not be as simple as granting a fiefdom. If it was just a fiefdom, it could be written directly in the imperial edict. There is no need to go to the imperial capital in person. After meeting the saint, the emperor told him personally?

However, obviously no one can answer such doubts and speculations for him. I believe that even the father-in-law just now does not know.

Unexpectedly, Wu Fan stopped thinking about it for the time being. Anyway, he would know everything when he arrived in the imperial capital. Moreover, he had been in this time and space for a while, and he was really curious about the imperial capital of Yanfeng Kingdom. Just wanted to take a look.

Before setting off, Wu Fan had to prepare a lot of things. Wu Fan had to take some of the precious pets in the forest behind him. With the Snow Cloud Cat around, it would not be difficult to catch those pets.

In addition to pets, Wu Fan also needs to bring some of the wine he just brewed. Qingyuan County is just a county after all, and the market is only so big. If you want to make big money from this wine, you must expand outwards, and Yanfeng Country's The capital must be very prosperous, with a huge city and a large population. Wu Fan would naturally not be willing to let go of such a market.

There is also a refreshing tea, and Wu Fan is also planning to bring some of it. Wu Fan is also planning to sell a large amount of this tea, so he cannot miss it in the Imperial Capital Market.

There are also some messy things that Wu Fan has to carry. Fortunately, he has space in his backpack, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to carry so many things.

"Sir, the journey to the imperial capital is not smooth. Let's go with you." Niu Er said.

The distance from here to the imperial capital is not close, and now that Yanfeng Kingdom is full of rebels, it is not impossible for Wu Fan to encounter rebels on the road. What's more, there are wandering demon soldiers, who are even more dangerous.

"No, you all stay here and guard this place for me. This is our base camp. I don't want any accidents to happen here." Wu Fan simply refused.

Wu Fan is not worried about his own safety. He has a lot of trump cards and there should be no problem in saving his life. What's more, even if an accident does happen, he still has the status of "player" as his final trump card, so he should be fine.

Compared with his own safety, Wu Fan is more worried about Hermit Village. As he said, Hermit Village is his base camp. He cannot allow any accidents to happen here, especially now that he has to leave here. Therefore, we must pay more attention to the protection of the Hermit Village.

"But, sir, you..." Xiao Liu said worriedly.

"I'm fine." Wu Fan said.

"Sir, why don't you let Luo Yang and Luo Yue follow you, and have someone look after you along the way? It's not enough if you don't have someone to help you," Wang Bing said.

"Yes, those officials in the county are surrounded by many servants when they go out. This time, sir, you are going to the imperial capital, and you are still a viscount. It would be disrespectful to have no servants around you." Xiao Liu said.

Luo Yue and Luo Yue looked at Wu Fan expectantly, and obviously wanted to go with Wu Fan. Wu Fan thought about it, and what they said made sense. With someone taking care of him by his side, he would be more comfortable, right? ?

"Okay, then Luo Yang and Luo Yue, you two will come to Beijing with me." Wu Fan said.

"Yes, sir!" Luo Yang and Luo Yue said with joy on their faces.

Everyone on Wu Fan's side was happily preparing the things Wu Fan needed to go to Beijing, but Magistrate Guo in Qingyuan County had a face as dark as coal.

Ever since he gave his calligraphy work as a birthday gift to the seventh princess, Magistrate Guo has been waiting for news of the award from the imperial capital. He is very satisfied with the gift he prepared and is very confident. It will definitely make the seventh princess happy. The princess was satisfied and saw her sincerity.

Today, news finally came from the imperial capital, and it was the news that an eunuch brought a team of cavalry to deliver it in person. When Magistrate Guo heard about it, he was overjoyed. After burning incense and bathing, he was filled with joy. Prepare to receive the imperial edict to commend yourself.

However, what surprised and disappointed him was that there was no commendation and no imperial edict!

All he waited for was the emperor's oral edict, which was not to praise him, but to reprimand him, saying that his skills were poor, his calligraphy was poor, and his perfunctory attitude towards the seventh princess's birthday gift was disrespectful to the royal family. Finally, he was punished. Half a year's salary.

how so?

Faced with His Majesty the Emperor's reprimand, County Magistrate Guo was completely confused about the situation. He didn't know how things could be like this. He didn't care about the seventh princess's birthday at all. He thought about the birthday gift for a long time before he thought of sending his own calligraphy work. , isn’t this sincere enough?

Moreover, my calligraphy level is obviously very high, why do you belittle your calligraphy so much?

County Magistrate Guo knelt there in a daze. The eunuch who read the oral edict left, but he did not react at all, as if he did not see it.

After a long time, County Magistrate Guo turned his head and looked at his master and said, "Master, is my calligraphy really bad?"

"This..." This question was a bit difficult for the master. He hesitated and said, "Maybe Her Highness the Seventh Princess does not know how to appreciate it. After all, the Seventh Princess is a girl and may not have any interest in calligraphy."

"Yes, that must be the case!" The master's words made County Magistrate Guo's eyes light up, and he seemed to have regained his previous confidence: "I am so stupid. I should have thought of this situation earlier. How could a girl like reading and writing? I sent these things over, and I guess she was annoyed, so she was so angry and belittled my calligraphy so much."

The louder the voice of County Magistrate Guo spoke, the whole person seemed to come alive.

Seeing this scene, the master standing aside secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead. This level was finally passed.

"By the way, I seemed to have heard that eunuch say that he was in a hurry to announce the decree?" When the legal advisor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, County Magistrate Guo suddenly looked at him and asked.
