Chapter 598: Becoming a New Rich Person in Beijing Overnight
The emperor snorted, and with a sneer on his face, he said, "Humph, I can write as much as I want and confer titles on whomever I want. They have no right to interfere."
"You're putting us on the fire! You've given us titles like Great General and Marquis, and made a country boy into a top celebrity in the capital overnight. What do you think those officials from the aristocratic families will think?"
Yaoyao stared with her big dark eyes, her clear eyes filled with dissatisfaction and speechlessness.
"Fame and power themselves bring certain risks. I believe your family can solve this problem. Do you want your family to stay in this rural village for the rest of your life? You have done so much, so don't you deserve these?" The emperor explained slowly.
That's the truth.
Yaoyao originally thought that it would be enough to appoint her uncle as the Great General of the Nation, but she didn't expect that the emperor would write several imperial edicts in a row. Once this happened, their Yuan family would become famous all over the world starting tomorrow, and the Yuan family would also be exposed to the eyes of the Prime Minister's family.
Ah, forget it.
His identity has already been exposed, it just depends on when the other party will react. The emperor's edicts are just to make the secret known ahead of time.
"Hahaha, let's go eat. Today is really a double happiness!" The village chief of Lihua Village laughed loudly, his face flushed and he was in a very good mood.
"Okay, I'm really sorry to bother the village chief today."
Old man Yuan nodded.
Old Lady Liu came up to the emperor with a smile on her face and said, "Master Xiao, the village has prepared a banquet for us. Let's go."
She has now realized it and accepted it quickly.
I was in a very good mood at this time, with a smile all over my face.
The emperor supported Yan'er and walked in front.
The Yuan family members walked slightly slower than the emperor, so as not to notice anything unusual and to show respect for the emperor.
Yaoyao and Guoan didn't care about all these. They ran ahead hand in hand and found the place for the banquet very accurately.
The huge place was filled with tables, each with exquisite dishes.
Fang Zhaochen was directing the servants to arrange the dishes, with an extremely serious look on his face, completely devoid of his previous arrogance.
He's grown a lot taller and thinner.
Fang Weihong was checking to see if every table was full of food.
The head of Lihua Village smiled and explained, "Mr. Fang heard that our village had captured four scholars and soldiers from the border, so he came to help."
Old man Yuan nodded.
Fang Weihong quickly put down the book in his hand and walked over, with a warm smile on his face, and said: "Congratulations to Mr. Xiucai for winning the title of scholar."
"Hey, he is now the Marquis of Anxing. Just now, someone from the capital city personally delivered the imperial edict to the village entrance. Boss Yuan is the general who protects the country, Old Lady Liu is the queen, and Yaoyao is the princess." The head of Lihua Village hurriedly explained and corrected.
Fang Weihong was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, bowed slightly and said, "Greetings to Marquis Anxing."
Old man Yuan still did not accept the title, and quickly pulled Fang Weihong up and said, "In the village, we should follow the village rules."
Fang Weihong stood up and nodded, feeling relieved. Fortunately, he had intended to make friends with the Yuan family.
This family has completely become the new elite in Beijing.
Fang Zhaochen naturally noticed Yaoyao and Guoan. He left his servants and came to the two of them with a happy look on his face.
"You guys are finally back! Do you know how bored I was when you were away? I wanted to go to your house to study every day, but you were never at home."
There was a sense of grievance and accusation in his tone.
"Haha, now you finally understand how good we are, right?" Guoan was very proud.
"You guys are the best. I tell you that today's banquet is all made with your favorite foods. Am I being very generous?" Fang Zhaochen's mood soon improved, and he spoke to the two of them with an expression that seemed to be asking for praise.
"Wow, you're so nice." Guoan complimented him perfunctorily.
Fang Zhaochen benefited greatly from it.
He was originally staying with the Yuan family in the provincial capital, but his grandmother suddenly pretended to be sick and returned to the Fang Mansion. When she learned that he had come to the provincial capital, she took him back overnight. A few days ago, he secretly returned to Lihua Village when his grandmother was not paying attention.
Fang Zhaochen now understood that his grandmother's blind doting would only make him become a scumbag when he grew up.
He doesn't want to be a scum who is cut into pieces.
