.Chapter 299: Reward

"Ba...b...b...b...b..." The sound of Long Zhan's finger hitting the throne kept reaching the ears of everyone present. The parties involved Long Shouren and Long Shouli no longer said anything to severely punish Ye Kaihuai. What they are now considering is how to let their father, His Majesty the Emperor of the Aolong Empire, spare the three things that were not enough to be defeated by their family.

"I didn't expect that my Long family is really a place for talent." Long Zhan stopped and knocked on the throne's fingers and spoke slowly. Everyone dared not speak out, just like the tranquility before the storm, and no one wanted to trigger the angry Long Zhan's bad temper.

"Lao Wu, how is your promising boy now?" Long Zhan asked Long Shouxin.

"Too, the imperial doctor has seen it. Two of the ribs were broken and the internal organs were slightly displaced. I need to stay at home for a while." Although I was not sure what was going on, the atmosphere at the scene told Long Shouxin that the things they planned might not be successful.

"Well... let him rest well and don't go out within two years. Remember, rest is to rest, that is, don't let someone disturb him." Long Zhan said lightly. Everyone present understood that Long Yuntian, the child, was confined to two years.

"Yes, yes." Long Shouxin looked at the boss Long Shouren while receiving the order, but saw Long Shouren shook his head slightly and signaling him not to ask more questions.

"Well. Now I will announce the reward that Lord Fengyang Ye Kaihuai should receive after passing the adult trial. Ye Kaihuai came forward." Long Zhan said to Ye Kaihuai who was standing at the stairs.

"Yes." Ye Kaihuai stepped forward and replied.

Wang Xuesen, who was standing beside Long Zhan, stepped forward, took out the imperial edict written in bright yellow satin, and chanted loudly: "The imperial edict said: Now there is the Lord Fengyang Ye Kaihuai, young and promising, smart and courageous... He appointed him as the governor of the Azes Plain, and I admire this."

Before Ye Kaihuai came forward to receive the order, someone couldn't help but jump out and objected: "Your Majesty, Lord Feng Yang is still young. Is it too early to let him serve as the Lord of Feng Yang and the Governor of the Azes Plain? Please consider it again."

Ye Kaihuai looked at the minister who raised his objection and did not know the old man who was dry and thin, but he was very energetic and had bright eyes. Seeing Ye Kaihuai looking at him, he even straightened his back. The ministers present seemed surprised that the old man would raise his objection. After a brief moment of stunned silence, they all agreed with the old man's opinion.

"Long Aiqing, you said that Lord Feng Yang is still young and cannot bear the heavy responsibility. I cannot agree with this. Let me ask you, who solved the problem of Feng Yang Ling's lack of water?" Long Zhan asked calmly.

"This... was solved by Lord Ye."

"Okay, then I'll ask you again, who brought about the development situation of Feng Yangling Xingxing Xiangrong?"

“Oh…”

"I also ask you, who caused the orcs in the Azeroth Plain?"

“…”

"I'll ask you in the end, who brought back the Five Poison Beads that the founding emperor of the Aolong Empire put in the trial cave in the trial."

“…”

"Don't these achievements explain anything?" Long Zhan said in a stern tone, and he almost scolded and asked the minister who opposed it.

All the ministers who raised objections had no words. Long Shouyi spoke at this time: "Father, Kaihua's achievements are indeed worthy of the title of Governor of the Azeroth Plain, but the Azeroth Plain borders the Orc Alliance, and those Orcs are unwilling to fail. If the Orc Alliance forces troops to attack, I am worried that you will not be able to stop it. After all, I heard that Qianren Mountain, which is separated from the Orc Alliance, broke open in an earthquake not long ago, and there is a path to the Red River Plain of the Orc Alliance..."

"No need to say it, I understand what you mean." So I have a second will. Xuesen." Long Zhan interrupted Long Shouyi's words and ordered Wang Xuesen beside him to say.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Xuesen agreed and read another imperial edict. The general idea was to consider the threat of the Orc Alliance, Ye Kaihuai was allowed to establish a legion with an organization equivalent to the Tiger Roar Army. Before the establishment of the legion, the Tiger Roar Army was temporarily stationed in the Azes Plain to help Ye Kaihuai defend the Orc Alliance. Of course, the cost required by the Tiger Roar Army was borne by Ye Kaihuai.

This decree made all the ministers confused. If the previous decree could be said to be a reward for the contributions made by Ye Kaihuai during this period, then this decree was entirely to support Ye Kaihuai's separatist and independent future. At this time, the ministers of any faction temporarily put aside their grudges and worked together to oppose the decree issued by Long Zhan.

Unfortunately, Long Zhan was unmoved and still insisted. In the end, Maris proposed a compromise opinion to let the legions in the empire take turns to garrison the Azes Plain. As soon as this opinion was put forward, the ministers did not object, but Ye Kaihuai opposed it. His reason was very simple.

"Your Majesty, everyone has their own likes and dislikes, so do I. I can't work with the Legion leader, especially if I have to give him money. I ask that I choose the Legion stationed in the Azes Plain."

"Kaoi, this is the court, not the market to buy vegetables, so you can bargain." Long Shouren scolded him as if he was an elder.

"Your Highness, if you say so, then what were you doing when Your Majesty issued the order just now?" Ye Kaihuai asked without any regard for it.

Long Shouren was choked to death, and Long Shouli came out to speak and said, "Happy, why are you talking to your uncle? You don't understand the rules at all."

"This is the court, first public and then private." Ye Kaihuai said to Long Shouli with such a big expression as you were in vain.

"You..." Long Shouli pointed at Ye Kaihuai so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Okay, stop talking." Long Zhan slapped the table and scolded everyone. Everyone immediately stopped the quarrel and looked at Long Zhan together. After all, he was the emperor and he had the final say.

"Well... I'm so happy, then according to your wishes, do you plan to let those legions station in the Azes Plain?" Long Zhan asked after coughing lightly.

"Report to your Majesty, I plan this way. With a limit of half a year, I will change the legions stationed in the Azes Plain every six months. There is no need for all the legions of the empire to participate. Just a few legions closer to Azes. If you want to have Tiger Roar, Fei Yu and Bai Ze's three legions are enough. The other legions are a little far from Azes, so it's a bit too much to let them help defend the Orc Alliance."

"Yeah... it makes sense. What do you think, my dear friends?"

"You said it makes sense, can we still object?" The ministers said in their hearts and answered in unison: "Your Majesty is wise."

Faced with the ministers' awareness of the current affairs, Long Zhan nodded with satisfaction and announced loudly: "Since you all think that this is done, then this is done. I will pass the order and order the three legions of Tiger Roar, Fei Yu, and Bai Ze take turns to station in the Azes Plain from today, and are controlled by Ye Kaihuai, the governor of the Azes Plain."

After the court was dispersed, Ye Kaihuai was taken to see the Emperor by Wang Xuesen in the envious and jealous eyes of everyone. Long Shouxin had the opportunity to ask Long Shouren until this time to ask what happened in the court when he was not there. In his opinion, no matter how bad it was, Ye Kaihuai should have been cancelled for beating the royal relative. Why did it seem that not only did not work at all, but also compensated his precious son.

To put it bluntly, the forces that were hostile to themselves could not bear to see their plans succeed, so among the people who were asked by Long Zhan, the children of the hostile forces told them all the things truthfully, and intentionally or unintentionally focused on Long Yuntian's arrogance and Ye Kaihuai's tolerance and concession. Of course, Long Yunhai and Long Yunfei's defense was deliberately ignored by Long Zhan.

Long Shouxin, who understood, looked at the people who were walking away with hatred, and couldn't help but cursed in a low voice: "A bunch of short-sighted guys don't know at all that little bastard Ye Kaihuai is terrible. He actually raises tigers. Look, sooner or later, they will regret talking to Ye Kaihuai today."

"Okay, be careful that there are ears in the walls. I think they regret it now." Long Shouli interrupted Long Shouxin's words.

"Does that child Yuntian matter?" Long Shouren asked.

When Long Shouxin mentioned his child, he felt extremely distressed. After his child was born, he was reluctant to beat him or scold him. Today he was beaten up. But his father could not stand up for his son. It was sad to think about it.

Seeing that Long Shouxin's expression was wrong, Long Shouli quickly reminded: "Shouxin, don't do anything randomly. This is the time to be nervous. We cannot lose the big picture because of small things. We must know that if we are not willing to bear it, we will make a big plan."

"Don't worry, Shouli, I'm not confused yet, I can tell the difference." Long Shouxin nodded and said to Long Shouli.

"Just be able to tell the difference. I'm worried that you can't help but send someone to trouble Ye Kaihuai or the people around Ye Kaihuai. Be patient and wait until we succeed, there will be a chance to ask you to seek revenge on that little bastard." Long Shouli comforted and patted Long Shouxin's shoulder and said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

In the Royal Garden

Ye Kaihuai sat opposite Long Zhan, with Long Xingyun standing next to him. What puzzled Ye Kaihuai was that the old man who had been upstairs before, who was the first to oppose his grandfather's reward for him sat peacefully next to his grandfather.

"Kaohuai, come and introduce you to you. This old man is the Interior Minister of the Aolong Empire, Long Yide. It is your grandfather who grew up with me since childhood. Just call him Grandpa Long." Seeing Ye Kaihuai's doubts, Long Zhan introduced Ye Kaihuai.

"I have met Grandpa Long." Ye Kaihuai said respectfully.

"Mr. Ye doesn't need to be too polite. How is it? How is my grandson doing these days?" Long Yide asked Ye Kaihuai with a smile.
