Lin Langtian was not polite either, he took it with both hands, unfolded it to look at it, and after a while, he handed back the imperial decree with both hands.

Lin Langtian clasped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Lord Guo, Nanhai County will be yours from now on. I'm really happy to congratulate you."

"He Xi Guogong, not only sits in Nanhai County, but also embraces a beautiful woman home. I really envy others!"

"My lord, you marry Princess Anlan, how many people in the world will be secretly sad and cry late at night..."

"Oh, really?"

Xiao Yi was a little curious, and asked with interest: "Have you heard of Princess An Lan's name?"

Lin Langtian nodded and said with a smile: "The jewel of the royal family, who doesn't know."

"I heard that Princess An Lan has been extremely intelligent since she was a child. She can read at the age of one, write at the age of two, and compose poems at the age of three. The Great Confucianism, Bachelor.

"Princess Anlan is not only talented, but also has excellent martial arts talent. I heard that she is already a first-rank martial artist, but she has been keeping a low profile and the outside world doesn't know that's all. Otherwise, she will be on the famous Qianlong list. Definitely at the top!"

"However, Princess Anlan comes from the royal family, and there are countless treasures in the royal family. There are so many genius treasures and panacea. With the supply of these resources, it is not too shocking for her to be able to cultivate to the first rank of warrior."

Xiao Yi nodded, that's exactly why.

However, he was quite interested in Princess An Lan's literary talents. She could write at the age of two and poetry at the age of three, so she was a genius.

When he was three years old, he couldn't even write, he could only recite poems.

Geese, geese, singing to the sky, white hair floating in green water, anthurium plucking clear waves...

However, from what Lin Langtian said, it is certain that this Princess An Lan is not an ordinary person!

After talking about Princess Anlan, Lin Langtian talked about his purpose of coming here.

"Duke, the person who proposes the marriage has been prepared, and the dowry is also prepared. Here is the gift list, please have a look."

"Tomorrow is an auspicious day. If the Duke has no special instructions, the subordinates will proceed as planned!"

Xiao Yi took a red gift list from Lin Langtian and flipped through it.

He read it quickly, ten lines at a glance, and it took nearly half an hour to read it. The gift list is really too thick, there are more than ten pages, and there are all kinds of things written on it.

After reading it, Xiao Yi frowned slightly, and asked, "Who prepared this gift list?"

Lin Langtian replied: "This is from the housekeeper of the back house, and he passed it on to his subordinates. He said it was drafted by Mrs. Dong."

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "That's how it is, tomorrow will go according to plan."

There is nothing wrong with this gift list, but it is too rich.

There are millions of taels of silver and silver, in addition to silk and satin, rare antiques, natural materials and earthly treasures, and so on.

It can be said to be dazzling, and the value of this gift list, Xiao Yi roughly estimated, must be at least five or six million taels.

Sure enough, no matter in what era, marrying a wife costs a lot of money.Fortunately, in this day and age, he has the money to afford it.

Although this gift list seems to be of great value, to him now, it is just a sprinkle of water...

Regarding the gift list drafted by Dong Nuan, Xiao Yi can probably guess some of the other party's thoughts.

Nothing more, it is in this way to express respect and respect for the future mistress.

You see, I prepared the bride price when you got married. I prepared such a big gift for you. Don't you have a good impression of me?

With this good impression, then I want to wait for the mistress to marry, and I will be closer to her, and I will not be hostile to her.

In this way, she and her sisters will have a better life in the back house in the future.

It was because he wanted to understand these things that Xiao Yi didn't say anything.

Otherwise, with his current status and status, and the three great aristocratic families who had been wronged before, there would be no need to pay such a lot of gifts.

Even if he didn't pay a penny, the Luo family didn't dare to say anything, they still had to marry Luo Liuli obediently.

But thinking of Dongnuan's intention, Xiao Yi still agreed.

……

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

Lin Langtian took the gift list, and said: "Yilongshan has already sent people to clean it up, and it is estimated that it will be cleaned up in three to five days. Duke, when do you think it will be moved?"

"Forget it, let's not bother, let's go together when we get married, in fact, it doesn't matter where we live." Xiao Yi said.

……

After dismissing Lin Langtian, Xiao Yi turned around and went back to the back house, continuing his great cause of dual cultivation and exploring the mysteries of the Yin-Yang Dao.

Eunuch Wang's work efficiency is very high. On the second day, he, Prince Gong and others visited Jinyiwei Qianhu House again.

Wang Gonggong took out another imperial edict from his sleeve, and said to Xiao Yi with a smile: "Please listen to the edict, Duke Wu!"

Looking at the bright yellow scroll, Xiao Yi was curious.

I don't know if the imperial decree was delivered from the capital, if it was delivered from the capital, then the speed is too fast.

It was already written, and it was written in a large seal.It's just that the content is blank, and the prince can make a temporary decision, and he can write whatever he wants.

Xiao Yi thought it must be the latter, but Emperor Wen Jing's letter must have come, otherwise the prince would not have been able to write the imperial decree privately.

With a high-pitched voice, Wang Gonggong read out the imperial decree aloud. The content was the same, but he also praised Xiao Yi's achievements...

……

Chapter 422 The Blessing of the Qi People, Commanding the South China Sea

The prince continued to read out the imperial decree, and after praising Xiao Yi, he said that His Majesty wanted to be beautiful as an adult!

Hearing that Duke Wu's wedding is approaching, a special decree was made to confer the title of Duke Wu's wife, Luo Liuli, the daughter of the Luo family, as the first-rank wife, and to bestow Fengguan Xiapei.

At the same time, he granted Wu Guogong the title of Ping's wife, and the imperial decree also made some simple descriptions of Ping's wife, setting the tone.

An equal wife is equivalent to a regular wife, and her status is exactly the same as that of a regular wife, and there is no distinction between high and low.

After reading the imperial decree, Xiao Yi shouted again: "I accept the decree, thank you Lord Long En." Then he took the imperial decree from the prince.

Wang Gonggong said with a smile: "The Qin Tianjian in the capital is already selecting the auspicious date of Princess Anlan's zodiac, and calculating the date of Princess Anlan's marriage. At that time, the Ministry of Rites will have a special person in charge of this matter. Please don't worry, Duke Wu."

Xiao Yi also knows that marrying a daughter of the royal family is different from marrying an ordinary person!

Ordinary people marry a wife, and they can go through a set of procedures in a few days, go to court, get married, and enter the bridal chamber.

A few months later, it will be over.

But the royal family is different. Marrying a daughter of the royal family is a big event. The things involved involve all aspects, and it is also related to the face of the court. It is no small matter!

Without half a year, it is impossible to go through a set of procedures, and this is still short.

Although Xiao Yi has never married a princess, he has watched TV, and the words of Eunuch Wang also hinted at this meaning, otherwise what does he mean when he said don't worry?

Fortunately, Xiao Yi was not particularly active in this matter. It belonged to that kind. If you have it, you can do it, but if you don’t, you can just wait. Anyway, he is not in a hurry.

Xiao Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Understood, thank you, Eunuch Wang, I must come and have a few more glasses of wedding wine then."

Wang Gonggong said: "It must be, thank you Wu Guogong."

After explaining this matter, their trip to Nanhai finally came to a successful conclusion, and they also perfectly executed Emperor Wen Jing's orders.

So Wang Gonggong and Prince Gong bid farewell to Xiao Yi one after another, saying that they would return to the capital to return to their orders.

Xiao Yi didn't hold back either, and handed him off.

……

After sending away the investigation team from the imperial court, Nanhai County completely recovered its calm and entered a period of peaceful restoration.

Thanks to the contribution of the three great families, the post-war reconstruction of the nine counties in Nanhai County is proceeding in an orderly and rapid manner.

As for the intertwined forces in the rivers, lakes and localities of Nanhai County, the Qinglong Temple's strong intervention quickly cut through the mess.

Anyone who dissatisfied will be wiped out, and soon the rivers and lakes in Nanhai County became calm and peaceful.

As for the intertwined local forces, they have also become very low-key.Those who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune in war, or to take advantage of the chaos to annex their opponents, were severely punished and attacked.

However, Nanhai County is very big after all. Although Xiao Yi sent out all the people from Qinglong Palace, and there were Jin Yiwei to assist him, it still seemed a little weak among the entire Nanhai County and the nine counties.

On this day, Xiao Yi convened his first meeting as governor in Jinyiwei Thousand Households Office.

The participants included Luo Zhengqing, governor of Nanhai County, Liu Wenhui, governor of Nanhai County, and Pang Feihu, governor of Nanhai County.

In addition to the three giants of Nanhai County, the chief officials of the county guard's mansion, the county magistrate's mansion, and the county lieutenant's mansion also came.

The three giants are all old acquaintances except for Liu Wenhui, this Liu Wenhui is a member of the Liu family and the cousin of the current patriarch Liu Sanbian.

This is the background of the top aristocratic family. Whether it is in the court or in the local area, they have their people. As long as there is a key position vacant, they can immediately put their own people into operation.

Governor of the South China Sea!

When they heard that the imperial court conferred Xiao Yi's identity, Luo Zhengqing and the others were all stunned.

When facing Xiao Yi before, although they were a little weak most of the time.

But in terms of status, the two sides are on equal footing, even as high-ranking officials of the imperial court, they are more respected than Xiao Yi, the Jinyiwei Qianhu.

Even Xiao Yi was later conferred the title of Duke Wu by the court, but Duke Wu is only a title, not a real job.

So in this Nanhai County, theoretically speaking, the three of them have the final say, and Xiao Yi is just a dragon crossing the river.

And because Xiao Yi is still a member of Jinyiwei after all, he is destined to not be able to intervene in various affairs of the government in an open and aboveboard manner, let alone hinder the daily work of the three of them.

But now it is different, the imperial court even named Xiao Yi the governor of the South China Sea, and the governor has the right to manage all affairs in the South China Sea, whether it is civil affairs or military affairs.

This also means that from then on, the three of them have an extra boss on top of their heads.

Not only did the three of them have to obey Xiao Yi's orders, but Xiao Yi also had to decide their respective promotions and appointments, which was very uncomfortable.

I'm used to being the boss on my one-acre three-point land, and I'm used to being the boss, who wants to have another emperor on my head...

But the three of them, no matter how unwilling and unwilling they are, there is nothing they can do.

Even if they knew about this matter in advance, it would be useless to object. Facing Xiao Yi, the three of them dare not confront Xiao Yi head-on.

Otherwise, under Xiao Yi's intimidation, he would not have contributed money, effort, and people to support the post-war reconstruction.

Moreover, this matter of Xiao Yi being the governor of the South China Sea is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface, and it must have involved the game of the high-level court.

Canonization of a county governor, this is the first time since the founding of the Great Chu, and there has never been a precedent before!

This is even the struggle between Xiao Yi himself and Emperor Wen Jing, they can't get involved at all, and they can't control the situation.

Just kidding, no matter how powerful their three great aristocratic families are, they can't make Emperor Wen Jing obey them.

Seeing Xiao Yi, Luo Zhengqing, Liu Wenhui, and Pang Feihu, who were sitting at the head of the high seat at this moment, they felt mixed feelings in their hearts, they had everything.

Luo Zhengqing was fine, Xiao Yi had already sent someone to propose marriage, and was already going through the six wedding ceremony steps, and the two parties were about to become a family.

The jewel in his palm is about to marry someone else's wife. From this level, he is Xiao Yi's father-in-law.

Then his son-in-law is getting more and more powerful, and his daughter will benefit a lot from it. In this respect, Luo Zhengqing is happy to see the success.

But Liu Wenhui and Pang Feihu were different, they both had a feeling of boredom in their hearts, but they couldn't get angry, let alone show it.

Facing Xiao Yi, the two had to put on a respectful expression and a sincere smile on their faces.

After the two parties greeted each other, Xiao Yi motioned for everyone to sit down, and then got straight to the point.

Xiao Yi said that he wanted to build a Governor's Mansion in Nanhai County...

Originally, he wanted to put the Governor's Mansion in Shixing County, because Yilong Mountain was there.

But I also thought of the current county guard's mansion, county magistrate's mansion, and county lieutenant's mansion. These three major Nanhai government offices are all located in Nanhai County...

……

Chapter 423 Great joy in the South China Sea, the governor's wedding

The county government of Nanhai County has been in Nanhai County since ancient times.

Not only are the three central yamen in Nanhai County, but even the families of these officials live in Nanhai County, and this has been the case for generations.

These official records, as well as the in-laws behind them, are also rooted here. It is roughly estimated that there are at least tens of thousands of people, or even millions of people.

If Xiao Yi put the Governor's Mansion in Shixing County, he would take the initiative to isolate the ruling center. He would definitely not do such a stupid thing, so Xiao Yi decided to put the Governor's Mansion in Nanhai County as well.

After all, he is now the governor of the South China Sea. If he is still working in the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office, his name and words are not right, and secondly, the standards of the Qianhu Office are a bit low.

Hearing Xiao Yi's decision to build the Governor's Mansion, Luo Zhengqing nodded in agreement first, and also provided the location for the construction.

"My lord, the Xie's house is empty now. It's a good place. It's big enough and all the facilities are in place. You only need to send someone to tidy up and clean it up before it can be put into use. First, it can save money. Second, Come to save time and kill two birds with one stone!"

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, and he readily agreed, this idea is really good.
