The strongest young talent in history

Chapter 149 Taikang County Man
A sharp imperial decree arrived, and the inside and outside of Su's soap shop immediately fell silent.

The word "imperial decree" carries too much weight. It is an order that only the current emperor can issue. Even people like Sun Qiwen and Chu Hongtu who have seen the world, when they heard this imperial decree, they looked at each other in blank dismay. I don't know why. There is a decree coming here.

"The imperial decree has arrived, Su Mo accepts it!"

As the sound gradually approached, a path was suddenly opened in the crowded crowd, and then two rows of soldiers escorted an old man in eunuch clothing to the bottom of the stage in front of Su's Soap Shop.

All eyes were on the old eunuch. The old eunuch glanced at the stunned crowd and said in a low voice: "The imperial decree has arrived. Su Mo, a scholar from Taikang County, has received the decree. I don't know who is Su Mo?" Mr. Mo!"

Hearing the eunuch's words, the eyes of those around turned to Su Mo mechanically, but Su Mo said with a calm smile, "I am!"

Different from the shock of others, Su Mo seemed to have known for a long time that there would be an imperial edict issued today, so he acted unusually calm.

The old eunuch squeezed out an extremely ugly smile on his wrinkled face, and said: "So you are Mr. Su, let our family find it easy, and accept the order!"

Su Mo did not neglect, knelt on the ground, and then shouted loudly: "Su Mo, the grassroots, accept the order, long live long live long live!"

Su Mo's loud cry brought those dazed people around to their senses, and they all hurriedly knelt on the ground. Although the imperial decree was issued to Su Mo, seeing the imperial decree was like seeing the emperor, no one dared not to kneel, otherwise You will be punished for the crime of disrespect.

Inside and outside the door of Su's Soap Shop, hundreds of wealthy businessmen all knelt down neatly and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The eunuch opened the imperial decree in his hand, and read in a high-pitched voice: "By heaven, the emperor called, Su Mo, a talented man in Taikang County, has made great contributions to the country. In order to show his meritorious service and encourage the people of the Song Dynasty, I made an exception to seal you up." For the inspection of the Taikang Hospital, and the male of Taikang County, I appreciate it! Congratulations, Mr. Su! It’s a great grace, so get up and give thanks!”

As soon as the eunuch Xuanzhi finished speaking, there were gasps in front of Su's Soap Shop, and even Zhao Feiwu's eyes were full of disbelief.

Su Mo was actually promoted to a noble, so let’s not talk about the official, the highest position in the Taiyuan Hospital is almost the highest official in the Taiyuan Hospital, ranking in the fifth rank, although Su Mo is only the inspection of the Taiyuan Hospital, it is a vain job As an official, he has no real power and does not need to work in the Tai Hospital, but it is still impossible to deny that he is a fifth-rank official.

How many people have been in the officialdom for a lifetime, but they can't climb to the position of the fifth rank. Even an old official like Sun Qiwen, who is over forty years old, is just a county magistrate of the seventh rank. Get a position of the fifth grade.

However, what is even more shocking is the title of Taikang County male. The titles of the Great Song Dynasty are divided into twelve levels. Among them, the founder of the country is the lowest level of title. The grade is high, and there are only three hundred households in the food town.

But if people were allowed to choose, as long as they were normal people, they would definitely choose the title of Taikang County male, because it meant supreme glory.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, there have been only a few people who have been knighted, and most of them were those who followed the Taizu to conquer the world. As for the people who were knighted after the Taizu, there are very few.

For so many years, how many veterans and celebrities of the imperial court have tried their best for a title, but in the end they failed to achieve their wish, and had to regret it for the rest of their lives.

Chu Yiqing is highly respected, but he has not been knighted until now, and there is a high probability that it will be impossible in this life, which shows the difficulty of being knighted.

What kind of virtue and ability is this Su Mo? He can be conferred a title. Is he trying to make the world jealous?

I have never heard of it, what kind of feat this guy has done to benefit the country and the people!
What the hell are the officials thinking, to designate such a little-known little man as the founder of the country.

Su Mo has only been famous for a month, and it is only in Taikang County.

But no matter how envious and jealous these people are, Su Mo's being knighted is an unchangeable fact. You are not kidding, the emperor's imperial decree has come down, no matter how many people oppose it, it will not help.

"This... this guy was named a county man, how did he do it?"

Xiao Ziling, who was sitting in the carriage, covered her small mouth lightly with her jade hand, her beautiful eyes were shining brightly.

Even Shen Miaomiao, who had always been confident in Su Mo's sweetness, felt incredible in her eyes when she heard that Su Mo was named the male of Taikang County.

From this moment on, Su Mo has completely transformed into a dragon in the sky, completely widening the gap with them and those who are at the bottom of society.

Not to mention them, even people like Sun Qiwen from the officialdom should greet Su Mo when they see Su Mo again: "Lord Su."

However, Shen Miaomiao and Xiao Ziling were not jealous in their hearts, they were really happy for Su Mo just like Zhao Feiwu.

Chu Hongtu, who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes turned extremely red, his hands turned white, and his nails seemed to be embedded in the flesh of his palms.

Why!Why is God so unfair!

His grandfather was highly respected, and his disciples and old officials were all over the world, but he never got the lowest level of the founding baron. How could this Su Mohede be able to get such an honor? He was just a small businessman, at most a bit Talented businessman.

Moreover, the laws of the Song Dynasty stipulated that businessmen were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, and they were not allowed to enter the court as an official, but the officials personally decreed to appoint him an official.

Is this not taking Da Song Wangfa seriously?

Chu Hongtu was still too naive. The so-called Great Song Dynasty’s law was always the royal law of the royal family, and the emperor occasionally violated some not-so-great laws, so who can say what?

On the second floor of the Fang family gouache shop, the faces of Fang Zhimin and other merchants turned extremely pale. They didn't expect that not long ago, they were regarded as enemies, and in a blink of an eye, they became an existence they could not look up to. Is it really good fortune? ?
Su Mo stood up from the ground, then walked off the stage, came to the old eunuch, and quietly took out a large ingot of 50 taels of silver, stuffed it into the opponent's hand without a trace, then took the imperial edict and said: "Your Majesty, you have announced the decree!" , Buy some tea with this little money! "

The old eunuch who received the money immediately smiled and said: "Congratulations, Young Master Su, for becoming the first magistrate appointed by the Holy Majesty. Our family is going back to deliver the order. The Majesty is waiting for news about our family in the palace. I don't know much about it." Excuse me, goodbye!"

Su Mo nodded, and then said to Hou Qing beside him, "Young Master Hou, help me see off this father-in-law!"

"Ah! Oh, good, Eunuch, please!"

Hou Qing, who reacted from the shock, nodded quickly and guided the father-in-law who delivered the decree to leave.

Looking at the backs of Hou Qing and the father-in-law, Su Mo smiled, and then looked at Chu Hongtu who was kneeling on the stage.
