Chapter 16
Eunuch Li was dressed in court clothes, enough to show his identity. The person following him carried a large box, which looked quite heavy.
Everyone was stunned by this scene.
Except for Zhao Feiyang.
The two who were holding him were also relieved in surprise. Zhao Feiyang was too lazy to struggle at this time.
After Eunuch Li approached, looking at the complicated scene at the door of the Zhao family, he asked cautiously: "Who is Zhao Ke and Scholar Zhao?"
“It’s right down.”
Zhao Feiyang said with a voice.
The two people who were still holding him seemed to have touched a hot potato and quickly let go.
Eunuch Li glanced at the two of them and thought that they were the ones who came to trouble the Zhao family, so he whispered: "Zhao Ke received the order!"
Zhao Feiyang stepped forward and knelt down with his sleeves.
As the saying goes, seeing the imperial edict is like seeing the emperor. The villagers have long been kneeling on the ground. Even the people from the Tianlang Gang and Liu Zi'ang dare not stand and kneel down one after another.
"The emperor's edict from the Heavenly Emperor Chengyun said! In this provincial examination, Zhao Ke was outstanding and his literary talent is outstanding. I hereby appointed Zhao Ke as the first in the list to receive a hundred taels of gold. I hope Zhao Ke will live up to my expectations and admire this!"
After Eunuch Li finished reciting the imperial edict, the few people behind him walked up with the box just now and opened it in front of him. The box of shining gold made everyone stunned!
"Thank you, Lord, Long!"
While everyone was frozen, Zhao Feiyang accepted the imperial edict with ease, and a hint of doubt arose in his heart. The provincial examination has always been ranked by examiners. Unexpectedly, he actually received the imperial edict. Could it be that the emperor was decentralized by the relatives of the Chen family, and now he has personally approved the provincial examination paper?
Zhao Feiyang guessed in his heart and said without changing his face: "My lord works hard and his family is poor. If you don't dislike it, please rest in the house for a while."
"You are polite to Zhao Huiyuan. Our family is just an eunuch by the emperor. Since Zhao Huiyuan invited him, how dare our family dislike him?"
Eunuch Li said kindly with his face.
Zhao Feiyang was stunned. The eunuchs around the emperor? As far as he knew, the only one who can be called the emperor's people is Li Quan, the chief supervisor of the inner rank.
That is the most trusted person by the emperor. Although he is a eunuch, which official in the court cannot respect him when he sees him?
Thinking of this, Zhao Feiyang asked tentatively: "Is my father-in-law the surname Li?"
"Zhao Huiyuan is indeed smart and talented. No wonder the emperor admires you very much!"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Zi'ang, who had not yet gotten up, was extremely shocked. Although he was a playboy, he had heard of the name of Eunuch Li. Unexpectedly, even Eunuch Li came to send the imperial edict in person. It was already a strange thing that Zhao Feiyang could get the first place in high school, and it was actually appointed by the emperor. Even the person who reported the news was Eunuch Li next to the emperor...
"The emperor's holy grace, Zhao Ke will definitely live up to expectations!" Zhao Feiyang made a gesture of invitation and said, "Brother-in-law, please come in quickly."
Eunuch Li nodded slightly, but when he walked to the door of the house, he suddenly stopped and glanced at the Tianlang Gang and Liu Zi'ang, "I heard that someone came to Zhao Huiyuan's house to cause trouble, but these people?"
When they were suddenly named, the people were extremely frightened, the most serious of which was Liu Zi'ang.
He has offended Zhao Feiyang now. If Mrs. Su knew that he had come to rob Zhao Xueer, she would definitely not help him. Moreover, Zhao Feiyang also won Huiyuan. In the future, he will definitely be worse than death!
"Yes, but Eunuch Li doesn't have to worry, I will handle them properly."
"Zhao Huiyuan is useful to our place, although we don't believe it. The little thief dares to bully me, Daliang Huiyuan! Humph!"
Eunuch Li snorted coldly, and the few people kneeling on the ground trembled.
Although the Zhao family was poor, the family was very clean. After Eunuch Li sat down, Zhao Feiyang went into the inner room and asked his mother to make tea for Eunuch Li. The mother and daughter who had just heard the noise outside looked surprised at this time, but they were more happy.
Zhang quickly tidied up her clothes and went to the kitchen, and soon brewed the tea. When she saw the box of gold being moved into the house, she almost fainted.
Eunuch Li started chatting with Zhang.
Zhao Feiyang turned around and left the house again.
The people from the Tianlang Gang and Liu Zi'ang were still there. He walked to the one-eyed dragon, looked at each other with a condescending smile, saying, "Eunuch Li is visiting today, I have to receive it. I'm afraid I have to ask you to wait a little longer if my family owes you a hundred taels of silver."
"Zhao...Young Master Zhao!"
The one-eyed dragon, who has always been arrogant, looked completely timid at this time, and hurriedly bowed and kowtowed: "One hundred taels will be spared. We should respect you. Now, you are in high school. You are not concerned about villains. Don't be as knowledgeable as us..."
Zhao Feiyang ignored him and looked at Liu Zi'ang again, "Now Mr. Liu wants to marry my sister, this hundred taels of silver as a betrothal gift is probably not enough. I wonder what Mr. Liu is thinking?"
Liu Zi'ang was sweating and said terrified: "This is natural...I am not worthy of Miss Xue'er, so I also invite Zhao...Huiyuan. For the sake of you and I are relatives, please spare me, please spare me this time..."
The moment of the situation was reversed, which made Zhao Feiyang completely realize the importance of power in this era. He is just a Huiyuan now, and he can scare these people out of fear.
He will continue to rise in the future, and at least he will have to become the top scorer.
By then, except for Mr. Su who were fighting outside, what were the people of the Su family?
"I heard these two people really well, but what should I do if I suddenly change my mind in the future?"
Zhao Feiyang obviously did not want to let them go easily. Where did this kind of good thing come from in the world? He acted recklessly when he bullied others. Now that he has turned over, how could he let it go?
He, Zhang Feiyang, is not a Bodhisattva heart.
"this......"
The few people hesitated, and couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
Eunuch Li was still in the house, and Zhao Feiyang was not inconvenient to talk to them more. At this time, he said in a casual tone: "It's good. You go to the yamen now and surrender yourself. If you commit a crime, you will be honest and explain what you have committed. How many months will you be in jail tomorrow. I will ask you tomorrow. If you don't surrender, then I can only report to the official to arrest you. Not only will you arrest you, but you will also make a big fuss so that everyone in the capital knows what you have done. As for how to choose, it depends on your own and you won't send it."
After saying that, Zhao Feiyang walked into the house with a brisk step. He left those people outside and felt the biting cold wind.
A few days later.
Zhao Feiyang found a yard in the city, and then prepared to take his mother and sister out of the village.
Before leaving, the villagers in the village came to congratulate him frequently. Zhang was not kept from him because of his education, but he was not very polite to them.
No matter who is persuaded to sell his daughter, he will probably not have a good face.
After leaving the village, Zhao Feiyang settled his mother and sister. Now the family is not short of money and there is no need to save money. Moreover, the people who rushed to the Su family to give gifts to Zhao Feiyang every day are endless.
The Su family's attitude towards Zhao Feiyang has also changed significantly. For example, when he returned to Su's house for the first time after high school, his place of residence was easily moved from the woodshed to a separate yard.
Those servants began to salute when they saw him.
