Since ancient times, talented people have been born in the Red Chamber

Chapter 453 Apart from prestige, there is no knighthood for birds (first update)
Chapter 452

As soon as Gao Taotao finished speaking, several officials stepped forward, but Gao Taotao spoke directly. "If you and others are not satisfied, then how about the Ai family promoting him as the founding earl?"

"This..." Hearing Gao Taotao's angry scolding voice, the few old party officials who were about to fire at Wang Yang couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

In the end, he had no choice but to say that he didn't dare, and returned to the ranks of the court. "The founding viscount is the fifth rank, and the Jilu official is the sixth rank. My boy, Wang Yang, can be regarded as the first one for me to be promoted to the number one scholar." Su Dongpo couldn't help but whispered enviously.

"However, based on his meritorious service, it is not too bad to be knighted like this. After all, he is still young and shows his talent..." An official who was close to Su Dongpo nodded.

"Haha, isn't he just as beautiful as a tree now?" Su Dongpo shook his head with emotion, stroking his long beard. "I just hope that kid can keep a low profile. Otherwise, he will suffer a lot. With his temperament, maybe within three to five years, he will be thrown out of the capital by those who don't like him."

"In my opinion, I'm afraid it won't be more than a year. You think, he is already a big celebrity in the eyes of His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, but he has been at odds with most of the old parties. So what if you support him? Xueshi Su himself is also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river."

Not to mention those ministers whispering in the court, here, the rewards for Wang Yang are not over yet. "Since these crafts are all from Xiao Wangqing's family, um... Lu Qing's family, what is the order of the Military Arms Supervision and Jiafang Department?"

Master Lu, who was quick-thinking, still didn't understand what the Empress Dowager meant, so he quickly replied. “I’d like to express my gratitude to you, the Chief of the Arms Supervisory Office, Jiafang, is a member of the eighth rank. However, I, the Chief of Military Weapons Supervisor, am a member of the seventh rank.”

"On the seventh rank, um... Let him know the military weapon supervisor, and be in charge of the military weapon supervisor Jiafang office. Since that kid is so capable, let him do more work, so as not to make trouble all day long, but Lu Qing , Remember to order the military supervisory officials to let them know the nature of Xiao Wangqing's family, so that there is no need for trouble again..."

Hearing Gao Taotao's seemingly helpless tone, Lu Jianqing couldn't help sweating, and respectfully accepted the order.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he almost burst out laughing, but he had to silently give a thumbs up for his grandma's scheming, well done, so that Wang Wushan won't know what troubles will arise again.

Back in the mansion, the reward arrived before his butt was hot. Wang Yang never thought that he was an unlucky ghost with a black account last year. He became the majestic founding viscount of the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Yiyi happily took out the ten pennies and handed them to the eunuch and others who came to announce the decree. After sending those people out of the gate, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Wang Yang's new house.

"Sister Yiyi, the father-in-law said just now that the newly made plaque of the Founding Viscount's Mansion will be taken in the future. By then, this will be the mansion of the Founding Viscount's Mansion."

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you kid went out for half a month, and you became a lord..." After receiving the news, Wang Po rushed back from the Yihong Building and saw the edict. It's not a taste to say.

"I'm talking about old mother-in-law. I didn't mean to be a fool. I developed excellent armor for the millions of masters in the Song Dynasty. Otherwise, do you think that titles can be obtained casually?" Taking off his official robe, he was leaning comfortably on the couch. In front of him, Li Shishi was holding a bowl of chilled white fungus and lotus seed soup and feeding it to Wang Yang, an old driver.

Life is getting more and more corrupt, but it is not Wang Yang who asks for it, but Li Shishi, a kind and understanding little beauty, who takes the initiative to do it. Naturally, Wang Yang does not want to disappoint the beauty.

And Liu Yiyi was sitting next to her mother, and when she heard Wang Yang's title of old mother-in-law, she couldn't help but feel sweet, and she gave Wang Yang a glance with her charming bright eyes.

But Wang Po is very happy with it. After all, she is very satisfied with Wang Yang, the son-in-law. Although she is a little stunned and likes to argue with herself, she is very good to her daughter. Besides, look at this kid , but he got the number one scholar in the examination, and he has only been employed for a few months, but he suddenly became a dignified founding viscount.

And all of a sudden, he went from a junior official of the eighth rank to an official of the sixth rank.

"Daughter, is this sixth-grade official higher than the county magistrate?" Wang Po's eyes fell on the imperial edict again, and she couldn't get enough of it.

"Mother... of course the sixth rank is much bigger than the county magistrate of the seventh rank, but that is just the rank official of the elder brother of the Wang family, that is, the Jilu officer, and his position is Quanzhi Military Weapon Supervisor, and the seventh rank is the highest rank. , just like the county magistrate." Liu Yiyi could only patiently explain to her mother.

"Then there are five hundred households in this food city... what does this mean?"

"That's just a fictitious thing. It means that the founding viscount can eat 25 households in the city. However, in fact, according to the laws of my Song Dynasty, one household in the food city is worth 1 yuan a month. That is to say, [-] households are worth [-] [-] Wen."

"So little?" Wang Po, the owner of Yihonglou, an important shareholder of Wanhong Wanyi Store, Wanhong Cement Workshop, and Porcelain Workshop, who is making money every day, couldn't help saying in surprise.

"Look here, a sixth-grade official can earn almost fifty guan in a month. Isn't this a big difference?"

"Mother, do you mean that it's not good to be a lord?" Liu Yiyi couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said angrily.

"Of course, it's just that the court is too stingy. The founding viscount of the fifth rank of the party and the party has only so little money. Alas... It's hard enough. Fortunately, this kid has shares in our Yihonglou. Otherwise, mother I am worried that my good girl will not have enough food and clothing to keep warm."

"Hey, old woman, what do you mean? Is my Wang that kind of person?" Wang Yang's face turned dark on the spot. Damn, I didn't expect that this old woman was not only extremely stingy, but also dared to despise the excellent Song Dynasty officials so much. If it weren't for the fact that this old lady is Liu Yiyi's mother, Wang Yang would have had the urge to drag this old lady to the court.

"Okay, don't make noise, mother, what are you talking about, besides, I'm really angry..." Liu Yiyi gave her mother a kiss, and then threw a bundle of autumn spinach at Wang Yang, which did not escalate the conflict .

"Mother doesn't have the time to be as knowledgeable as him, but having said that, my daughter will be the wife of an official family in the future, no, she will be the wife of the lord, tsk tsk tsk, I believe my old sisters must be so envious ..." Wang Po also turned her attention to her beautiful daughter.

But at this time, a servant came to report that His Royal Highness Duan Wang and the Li brothers and sisters were visiting together.

"I knew it. It seems like they are going to attack the local tyrants today..." After hearing the news, Wang Yang had no choice but to get up and rush out to greet them.
