Chapter 10 Chinese New Year's Eve Accident

The incense case was placed in the courtyard of the post house, and Yang Yuanqing led his men to kneel in front of the incense case, and three eunuchs came from the capital.

"Yang Yuanqing listens to the order!"

The chief eunuch unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud: "The Khitan is a barbarian, I don't know the power of heaven, and I am a border citizen of the Great Sui, which makes the whole country indignant, and the government and the opposition are ashamed, there is Yang Yuanqing, the governor of Fengzhou, who led the army of volunteers and braves, went to the Turks to borrow troops, defeated the Khitan, and revitalized my Great Sui Tianwei, so that the government and the opposition celebrated, I hereby crown Yang Yuanqing, the governor of Fengzhou, as the prince of Jiuyuan County, plus the lord general, and the rest of his subordinates are all sealed with Yitong, with a reward of 5,000 taels of silver and 10,000 horses of silk, Qin this! ”

Everyone was overjoyed, kowtowed together to thank them, the emperor rewarded them with military merits, did not disappoint them, they were originally low-level officers, there was no hope of promotion, and they were promoted to Yitong after only one battle with Yang Yuanqing, which means that they jumped into the ranks of middle-level officers, how could they not be overjoyed, not to mention that there was a generous reward. http://

update

Yang Yuanqing didn't care about his promotion, from the official point of view, he was not promoted, he was still the governor of Fengzhou, but the title and the title were promoted, in fact, the title is not important, many official eunuchs have higher titles than him, such as Li Mi, he has only been a shì guard, but his title is the county duke, one level higher than his county duke, the key is the lord, the general has been ranked to the fourth level of the lord, second only to the Shangzhu country, the pillar country, the general is the general, this is ranked by military merit, is a kind of military seniority, of course, it is not absolute, Like his father Yang Xuangan, who has not fought a battle, the lord has reached the general, which is the result of his grandfather Yang Suyi's achievements.

In fact, Yang Yuanqing pays more attention to the rewards of his subordinates, he doesn't care about himself, as long as his subordinates get the re-sealing rewards, then he will have face, and his subordinates will feel that they have a future with him.

Yang Yuanqing was very relieved, and hurriedly invited the three eunuchs into the house to rest.

The three eunuchs also ran for half a month, they were really tired, they went into the house and sat down, drank a sip of hot tea, and said with a smile for the first eunuch: "General Yang, we really can't rest, we have to rush to the northern counties to announce the decree, the saint has decided to start patrolling the north next year, and he will also go out of Yulin County, Yulin County is not very far from Wuyuan County, General Yang estimates that he will have to go to see the driver, and he must go back early to prepare." (《》.)”

"Thank you father-in-law for the reminder!"

At this time, a personal soldier came up with a plate of silver, which was three hundred taels, and Yang Yuanqing pushed the silver to the three eunuchs and said with a smile: "This is a little heart, buy wine for the three public roads, and you need to drink wine to keep out the cold in winter." ”

The three eunuchs smiled and squinted, excused themselves a few words, and then happily accepted it, secretly thinking that Yang Yuanqing would be a man, and since they had received the benefits, of course they had to say something and say a few words that had something to do with Yang Yuanqing.

The chief eunuch Shen Yín immediately said: "General Yang, something happened in the capital, which may have something to do with you." ”

"Father-in-law, please speak!"

The eunuch sighed and said: "The Yang family has been demoted, Yang Yue was impeached because he went to worship your grandfather during his official business, the saint was furious, Yang Yue was dismissed from his official position, and several of your uncles were also removed from the honor, the Yang family is now very depressed, and the court officials dare not go to the mén, for fear of getting into trouble, when we came, I heard that your father also went to visit the Pei family." ”

The Yang family was demoted, this is a matter of time, expected, but his father Yang Xuangan went to visit the Pei family, but he didn't expect it, not to say no, but to listen to the tone of the eunuch, this time it was quite grand, Yang Yuanqing understood that it should be for his marriage, and the Yang family was indirectly apologizing to himself.

Yang Yuanqing sighed in his heart, he knew today, why bother in the first place! He did not sympathize with the Yang family.

．．．．．．．

In another room, Yang Yuanqing's subordinates gathered together, extremely excited, and Cheng Yanjin walked around the room, his heart was very moving.

"My dad has never been on Yitong in his life, and the first thing I want to do when I go back this time is to go to his grave to burn paper, and my old Cheng is also Yitong, haha!"

Cheng Yanjin was happy in his heart, he swept his eyes, but saw that Pei Xingyan was a little worried, so he patted him on the shoulder, and asked angrily: "Xiao Pei, are you not satisfied with the reward?" ”

Pei Xingyan hurriedly shook his head, "Where do I dare to be dissatisfied, I just feel a little unbearable." (《》.)”

"Why can't you stand it?" And all the people looked at him.

Pei Xingyan smiled bitterly and said: "My father participated in the battle to destroy Chen, fought seven or eight big battles, and almost lost his life, so he was sealed to Yitong, I just fought like this, and it was not difficult, I was compared with my father, I feel a little ashamed." ”

Qin Qiong next to him said with a smile: "This is because the general's face is larger, in addition, his mission this time is the Holy Sect, although there is only one battle, but it is of great significance, so the Holy Lord will give a heavy reward, like your father in the Battle of Pingnan, the number of participants is too large, if everyone is the same as the Yitong, then how is it possible, unlike this time, just a few of us, the credit of the Turks has been robbed by us." ”

Everyone laughed, and Luo Shixin scratched his head and said, "After talking for a long time, I still don't know what this Yitong is?" Is it a kind of official? ”

Qin Qiong explained to him with a smile: "It's not an official, it's just a military rank, and it has no specific relationship with the official position held, but if you are promoted, the military department will consider it when awarding military positions, and it will not be awarded too low. ”

"In this case, I seem to have taken a big advantage, I actually just want to have fun, but I actually became a fellow Yitong, which is a bit embarrassing, and some people may be uncomfortable."

Luo Shixin glanced at Cheng Yanjin, his eyes were triumphant, Cheng Yanjin was indeed a little uncomfortable in his heart, he had been in the army for two years, and he had to get up step by step, Luo Shixin, a little kid, came out for the first time, and it was the same as himself.

Cheng Yanjin pursed his lips, "You stinky boy has no qualifications in the army, what if you become a Yitong, no one will obey you, I advise you to resign from this honor as soon as possible, so as not to make people laugh." ”

Luo Shixin blinked and smiled: "Brother Cheng, are you jealous, why are you sour?" ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and at this time, Yang Yuanqing sent the eunuch away and walked into the room, "What are you talking about?" So ridiculous! ”

Everyone stood up one after another, after this war, Yang Yuanqing had a kind of prestige in the minds of everyone, and everyone would no longer joke as casually as before in their speech and demeanor, but showed a kind of respect for him.

Yang Yuanqing also liked this feeling, so he waved his hand and smiled at everyone: "Let me tell you one thing, I have decided to return to Wuyuan County on the second day of the first lunar month, you are willing to go with me to play, I welcome, but if you want to go to Wuyuan County to take a job, I don't think it's time yet." ”

．．．．．．．

The next day is Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve is the last day of the year, almost every household is cleaning the house, sweeping the house, sweeping away all the dust of the old year, mén sheng to paste peach charms, to stretch out bamboo poles in front of the window, hang banners, killing pigs and sheep and beating rice cakes has been completed a few days ago, Chinese New Year's Eve is the time for the main fù to cook delicious food.

Fùnv is busy at home, the men mostly rest and relax, waiting for a sumptuous dinner, and the children can't wait to put on their new clothes, which should have been worn on the first day, and run around the neighborhood like colorful butterflies, showing off to each other.

Yang Yuanqing held an important position, although he lived in Yingzhou, he also went to visit the homes of the lonely and widowed elderly with local officials, sent grain, rice and food, and at the same time participated in the community sacrifice, which was extremely busy until the afternoon.

Yang Yuanqing and two entourages rode horses and returned to the post house from afar, Luo Shixin probed his brain on a tree, suddenly saw Yang Yuanqing, and immediately shouted to everyone: "The general is back!" ”

Green Tea was extremely nervous, and hurriedly waved to everyone, "Let's go!" ”

Nearly twenty people turned around and ran backwards, and in a moment they ran cleanly, green tea mōxiōng chest, stabilized their minds, and estimated that Yang Yuanqing was about to arrive at the mén mouth, she carried a basket, walked out quickly, and happened to meet Yang Yuanqing at the big mén mouth.

"Childe! Why are you only coming back now? ”

"Oh! I'll come back and change my clothes. ”

Yang Yuanqing saw that there was no one in the post house, so he asked with a smile, "What about the others?" ”

"Childe, you're coming back too late, everyone can't wait, go first, Childe, hurry up!" Green Tea urged him.

"I'll change my clothes and leave!"

Yang Yuanqing went back to the house to change clothes, and Green Tea hurriedly glanced at the two pro-soldiers, and the two of them understood, and they also slipped away from the back.

After a while, Yang Yuanqing came back, but found that the two were missing, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "What about the two of them?" ”

"Yang Dalang came to ask them to help carry the wine just now, son, let's go! It's not far away. ”

The fruit wine shop is indeed not far from them, only one mile apart, Yang Yuanqing is too lazy to ride a horse, and walks over directly, green tea followed behind with a basket, his heart was pounding, and he secretly prayed that the plan would not have an accident, and after a while, they walked to the fruit wine shop.

This is a very small wine shop, up to 20 people can eat here, it is also an old shop, at least 30 years old, the paint on the sign has been mottled, you can vaguely recognize the words 'fruit wine shop', today is Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone is reunited at home, the business of the wine shop is also exceptionally light, the guys are all home for the New Year, only the shopkeeper and husband greet the guests.

But tonight, green tea has already wrapped up here, in fact, there is only one guest Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing lifted the curtain and walked into the wine shop, only to see that the wine hall was empty, there was no one, Yang Yuanqing was stunned, turned around and asked, "What about them?" Didn't you say it had already come? ”

The shopkeeper had already received the instructions of the green tea in advance, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Their group of people thought that the wine in the small shop was not strong enough, so they all went to Tong'an Wine Shop to buy wine, saying that they would come back immediately, and the son invited him to sit in the room." ”

There is a separate small elegant room in the wine shop, which can accommodate a few people to drink, and the shopkeeper led Yang Yuanqing to the front of the elegant room, "Son, please!" ”

Seeing that Yang Yuanqing arrived at the mouth of Mén, Green Tea's heart was about to jump out, and he silently begged the Buddha to bless him with last-minute success.

Yang Yuanqing felt that there seemed to be someone in the elegant room, he didn't think so, thinking that it was Pei Xingyan or Qin Qiong, the two of them who were not good at drinking, so he directly pulled mén in, but as soon as he entered mén, when Yang Yuanqing saw the people sitting in the room, he was suddenly stunned.
