Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Three months' salary for a thousand slaves at once?

Samba was so excited that he couldn't get any more excited, and secretly wrenched his fingers to calculate how much money he deserved.

It was pretty close, and he wanted to flatter Guo Ye and sing a few words of praise, but he was still dragged out by Guan Jiujiu.

After leaving the door, I did not forget to murmur: "Master Guo is really a good person, a good person, it is really an honor for me to know and make friends with Mr. Guo, it is an honor!"

Guo Ye looked at the back of Samba leaving, and hummed in his heart, good man?pleasure?

Hey, Samba, you will know in the future whether Lao Tzu is a good person or a bad person. I hope you will be honored to know Lao Tzu when the time comes.

Do you really think that buddy's money is so easy to get?

There will be a day when you regret it...

……

……

The arrival of Samba was just a small episode. Whether it was Tuva City or Alitu City, there was nothing to do, and Guo Ye and others were not allowed to spend too much time talking about Samba.

Time passes day by day, and the people and things around us are all changing.

A week later, under the auspices of Pang Feihu, Ali Tucheng gradually got on the right track, announcing the official start of construction of the two countries' large bazaars.

Guo Ye even ordered that all the resources of Fanlongxi Army and Tuva City be used first in Ali Tucheng, and that the big markets of the two countries should be completed as soon as possible under the premise of ensuring quality and quantity.

After half a month of rebuilding and repairing, Guo Ye's new house has begun to take shape under the fierce attack of Fatty Zhu's powerful money and the exchange of large financial resources for large manpower.

Although the Guo family mansion has not been officially completed, and the detailed construction is still at least three or two months away, it cannot affect Guo Ye's relocation and temporary residence.

Sleeping on top of the treasure in the underground palace, Guo Ye also felt at ease.

……

This night,

It was the first night that Guo Ye moved into the new house.

In order to win a lot of money and look auspicious, he invited Kang Bao, Cheng Erniu, Guan Jiujiu, Zhu Fatty and others to come to the mansion, and asked Zhao Jiuchou to buy a banquet from Wangshan Tower.

Also set up a table for housewarming.

While everyone was having a good drink, Ruan Laosan, who was temporarily on duty at the gate tower at the main gate, sent someone to report that it was General Su Dingfang and Master Su of the Hexi Army who had come to visit.

Guo Ye was slightly surprised that Su Dingfang, who had been separated for nearly 20 days, came unexpectedly.

Could it be that something happened?

But when the soldiers sent by Ruan Laosan uttered the second sentence, Guo Ye instantly sobered up.

"Su Lang will ask the young one to bring a message to the lord, he is here with the lord servant in the palace..."

A servant in the palace?

Guo Ye knew that the servant was an eunuch, a position and a title of an eunuch in the Tang Dynasty.

The eunuch in the palace came not far from Chang'an and visited Tuva City at night, accompanied by Su Dingfang himself.

After Guo Ye hesitated for a while, he was surprised and delighted at once. Could it be that the reward edict, which he had been waiting for for so many days, finally came down?

Chapter 281

"Under the imperial decree, Guo Ye, a native of Longxi, accepts the decree!"

"The imperial decree comes to the mansion, as if I came in person, everyone, kneel!!!"

……

……

"Under the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it possible that the king's ministers have heard that there are Alitu City and Tuva City in the land of Shu. The area from the two cities to Yumen Pass stretches for hundreds of miles, but they have been wandering between the land of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, this is the border of the Tang Dynasty next to the Tubo Kingdom, but there are no soldiers to guard it, no officials to rectify it, and it has been occupied by the remnants of the former Sui Dynasty for more than ten years without knowing it, so I am deeply panicked."

"I am glad to hear that Guo Yezhe, a native of Longxi in central Shu, was born in a poor family. He was seventeen years old, but he had little ambition and was loyal to the country. He led three thousand sons from Longxi to Shuzhong. He assisted Su Dingfang, the Hexi Army, to wipe out Yang, the remnant of the former Sui Dynasty. My family’s merits, and later the merits of assisting the Su Dingfang Department of the Hexi Army to open up the territory and dedicate the two cities, I am very happy."

"As the saying goes, the name is not correct, how can the words be smooth? How can the land of the Tang Dynasty be without the agency of the Tang government? After discussion and petitions from the court officials, I am determined to be close to Tuva City, Ali Tucheng, and Yumen Pass. Boundary markers were set up along the [-]-kilometer-long border, and government offices were set up. And the government offices governed this piece of territory adjacent to the Tubo Kingdom.”

"The official office is named Xichuan Xiaodu Protectorate, and it is under the control of Jiannan Road."

"The Little Protectorate's Mansion can recruit [-] armored soldiers to secure borders, and bestow them on the Xichuan Army."

"I ordered Guo Ye, the former eighth-rank military officer of Yizhou Governor's Mansion, to serve as the small guard of Xichuan. Wangqing sits in Xichuan and has three thousand tigers under his jurisdiction. Guard our frontiers, defend our gates, and serve the country and the king with all our loyalty. superior."

"For this meritorious service, all Shuzhong sons below Guo Ye will be rewarded..."

……

……

In Guo Ye's new house, there is a nobleman wearing colorful and luxurious clothes. Although he is male, his eyes and brows are full of femininity. He has a white beard and dust whisk on his waist. He lives in the lobby, with his hands spread out The imperial decree written in yellow silk was read out in a high-pitched voice to Guo Ye who was kneeling below.

Obviously, this noble and feminine man is the eunuch who traveled thousands of miles from the Chang'an palace to announce the decree, also known as eunuch, eunuch.

In the entire hall, apart from the eunuch who read out the imperial decree and Guo Ye who knelt down to accept the decree, there was also Su Dingfang who knelt beside Guo Ye.

Although this imperial decree has nothing to do with him, who asked him to accompany the eunuch who announced the decree on the spot.As long as the imperial decree comes, if I come here in person, it doesn't matter whether it's your business or not, you have to kneel to show respect.

The edict was long and obscure. Although Guo Ye felt drowsy after listening to it, he had to listen to it with a hundredfold energy.

Who made this decree related to his vital interests?

After finally listening to the imperial edict, Guo Ye raised his head the moment he received the imperial edict with his hands in his hands, and finally saw the eunuch's appearance clearly.

Eunuchs have long been seen in later generations of film and television dramas, but Guo Ye is somewhat curious when he meets a real eunuch face to face for the first time in real life.

Although he was dressed in colorful robes and had an overpowering aura, and his voice was shrill like a drake calling, the eunuch's appearance, Guo Ye, was still quite pleasing to the eye.

Although the brows are soft, but a big Chinese character face with thick eyebrows and big eyes gives people a thick feeling, which makes it easier for him to accept, and he doesn't mind the fact that the other party is missing two balls.

Following the scenes in later generations of film and television dramas, Guo Ye respectfully accepted the imperial decree and shouted twice, Long live my emperor.

Standing up and holding the imperial decree, he walked steadily to the hall, and placed the imperial decree on the desk prepared earlier in the morning.First, wash your hands in a copper basin, and then burn incense on the incense burner and pray, chanting words in a model, as if praying to God, praying for His Majesty Li Er.

These don't need to be taught by others at all. If you don't understand these red tapes, you will really be in vain.

Guo Ye's performance in this scene was orderly, well-regulated, calm and unhurried, without a trace of panic.

The eunuch with the square face was stunned, he inadvertently let out a surprise, and turned his eyes to Su Dingfang who accompanied him to Tuva City in surprise.
