Chapter 86 Imperial Decree
Courtyard.
At this time, in addition to Luo Yuanqing, Li Changfeng, Lin Hai and other acquaintances, there were three strangers standing in front of him. A man with a pale face and a little feminine look, and he thought it was the so-called angel.
And, standing behind this angel are two men with a back and a bear, obviously holding the responsibility of protection.
Li Yu couldn't help but glance at him a few more times. To be honest... This was the first time he had seen a legendary "biota" like eunuchs.
The noise caused by the arrival of Li Yu and the other two immediately attracted everyone's attention in the court.
The eunuch with a white face and no beard was slightly surprised. He had an illusion that the young man looked at him with a strange look, as if he was looking at some precious animal.
This... should be an illusion?
"Have you met my father-in-law!"
Li Yu bowed to the eunuch and asked, "I don't know if my father-in-law suddenly visited me, what's the point of doing?"
The eunuch ignored Li Yu's words and asked, "Are you the magistrate of Yongyang County?"
Li Yu nodded: "That's right!"
"Li Yu, the magistrate of Yongyang County, received the order!"
The eunuch suddenly took out an imperial edict, with a solemn face, a loud and slightly sharp voice.
Receive the order?
After two breaths, Li Yu realized that he quickly knelt down on one knee. Seeing Li Hongxiu standing still stunned, looking unmoved, he quickly pulled him down.
Next, Luo Yuanqing, Cheng Deng, Li Changfeng and others.
"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the imperial edict said: Li Yu, the magistrate of Yongyang County, offered other methods to cut wounds, saved many people in Leling County, and rewarded them for great merits...Three months later, he went to the Jing County County Government to take up the position of magistrate...Improve this!"
Luo Yuanqing was extremely surprised and incredible. If he remembered correctly, it had not been a year since Li Yu came to Yongyang County, but now he is going to be promoted to the magistrate of Jing County.
Thinking about it, he has been the county magistrate of Yongyang County for many years, but he has never been promoted to a certain point. Comparing people with others can really make people angry... However, Li Yu's transfer is to mean that this time he has another chance to be promoted from a county magistrate to a county magistrate.
Thinking about it this way, I undoubtedly feel a little excited and moved in my heart.
Li Yu was also very surprised!
At first, when he received the imperial edict, he was very confused. Even if he was rewarded, he would not have to do such a big deal as an imperial edict. It was not until he heard that he was going to take the position of magistrate in the county government office in Beijing that he realized it.
Although the magistrate of Jing County is also a magistrate, there is a huge difference compared to the magistrate of Yongyang County.
First, the magistrate of Jing County is a fifth rank, while the magistrate of Yongyang County is only a eighth rank. The gap between them can be imagined.
Secondly, Jingxian County is at the foot of the emperor, and even ten or hundreds of Yongyang counties are incomparable.
However, Li Yu didn't care about these things now, and his thoughts gradually drifted into the distance.
He is going to Beijing and Zhongzhou.
How was she doing after Yanyang Mountain? Are she still alright now?
"Mr. Li! Magistrate Li..."
The eunuch's feminine voice failed to pull Li Yu's thoughts back.
Seeing this, Li Hongxiu, who was beside him, secretly stretched out his hand and pulled the hem of Li Yu's clothes hard.
Only then did Li Yu come to his senses and respectfully accept the imperial edict.
Li Yu stood up and looked at the three of them: "The summer is hot, and the three of them have been working hard all the time. I guess they are already dry and unbearable now. Why not sit down in the back hall first and then taste a bowl of mung bean soup?"
After pondering for a while, the eunuch who led the lead nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble County Magistrate Li."
He was indeed a little dry.
So Li Yu asked Chen Deng to prepare three bowls of mung bean soup and gave him a wink.
After Cheng Deng left the court, Li Yu brought the three of them to the back hall.
After a while, a maid walked in with three bowls of mung bean soup.
As soon as I picked up the bowl of seductive mung bean soup in front of me, the eunuch felt something was wrong.
This bowl of mung bean soup was actually iced, and it was obvious that the coldness was transmitted from it to the hot and a little sweaty hands.
I almost couldn't wait to drink a long sip of cold mung bean soup. In an instant, I felt that the heat and the heat of summer in my heart had decreased a lot. I couldn't help but exhale a long breath, making people want to shout out the word "smooth"!
The eunuch looked at Li Yu differently. He never expected that he could drink such a bowl of iced mung bean soup in this remote small county. In the hot summer, even if he was in the palace, it would be difficult for him to drink it frequently. This kind of thing was basically something that his majesty, royal relatives, and ministers were qualified to enjoy frequently.
Although the ice cellar in the palace is very large, it is not so easy to hide ice in winter to summer.
Li Yu smiled knowingly, and then said to the eunuch: "I still don't know the name of my father-in-law, and I don't know what my father-in-law calls me?"
Because of this bowl of iced mung bean soup, he obviously had a good impression of Li Yu and the eunuch, so he chuckled and said, "Mr. Li doesn't have to be too polite. Our surname is Cao and our name is Bai."
Li Yu smiled and said, "Eunuch Cao, I have a doubt. I wonder if my father-in-law can answer one or two of them?"
Cao Gonggong said: "I wonder what doubts Li Zhixian has?"
Li Yu said: "I am just a few shallow credit, but why can I get the important position of magistrate of Beijing County? I feel a little uneasy for this."
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Cao became silent and could not see anything from his expression. After a while, he said, "Mr. Li, you don't have to think too much about this. In fact, it's nothing. The magistrate of Jing County is about to retire and cannot find anyone to replace him. It happened that Your Majesty admired Li County quite much. Therefore, Your Majesty appointed you...Mr. Li, don't let Your Majesty down your appreciation and expectations for you."
Li Yu thanked him: "Thank you, Eunuch Cao, for your answer. I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"
But I felt a little dissatisfied with Eunuch Cao’s words. The empire of the Great Zhou Dynasty is so big and there are so many people. Will I not be able to find a suitable person to take up the position of magistrate of Beijing County?
Eunuch Cao nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's so good!"
After drinking this bowl of iced mung bean soup, Eunuch Cao got up and said goodbye to go back to the capital to report his life.
At this time, Cheng Deng finally appeared.
Li Yu took the silver from Cheng Deng in a small cloth bag and handed it to Eunuch Cao: "Eunuch Cao, these are some specialties from Yongyang County, and they are not respectful!"
specialty?
Eunuch Cao was stunned and then smiled slightly. Magistrate Li was a funny person. After weighing it, his smile became more satisfied.
Li Hongxiu, who saw this scene, curled his lips: Hypocrisy...
Although she didn't hear what she was saying, Li Yu understood in a second.
But he didn't agree. What did this silly girl know? This Eunuch Cao obviously has a certain status in the palace. He will go to the capital soon and become an official, so he cannot guarantee that there is nothing that may need to be helped by this Eunuch Cao.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish a good relationship now, and it is nothing more than spending some money.
