The poor man grows watermelon

This time, the reward for meritorious deeds, since it involves the harem and Su Ye, should be discussed with the empress.

Previously, she was doing bad things in the back kitchen and almost caused a big mistake. Xiao Heng immediately took half of her power to manage the harem.Originally thought that she would just settle down, but unexpectedly she was still so arrogant.

Xiao Heng immediately lowered his face, and said in a deep voice: "What does the queen mean?"

"Gang Li and Ethics are like this, and the concubine is just telling the truth from a woman's point of view." The queen laughed, "Furthermore, Yun Ting'er is just a rebellious minister, so what can I follow?"

Xiao Heng frowned slightly, and Min Zheng unconsciously tightened his grip on the wat board.

Although the queen's words were on the opposite side of the emperor's, it actually darkened the minds of many people.You must know that all the people standing in the hall are men, and the concept of male superiority to female inferiority ultimately protects their interests.

Therefore, someone soon stood up and said loudly: "I think that what the empress said is very true. If all the twins and women in the world are running around for fame and fame, not to mention it is indecent, it will be a great disadvantage to the community to reproduce. ah!"

"My minister agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

"Your Majesty, this case cannot be opened!"

Xiao Heng looked at old Prime Minister Fan with some embarrassment, and the old prime minister shook his head cryptically.

So far, even if Xiao Heng intends to make an exception, it will not work.

The queen raised her red lips, showing a proud look.

Xiao Heng concealed the disgust in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Su Qing, I have authorized you to keep the official status and salary of the fifth rank, and also give ten hectares of fertile land and one hundred taels of gold as rewards, let's just forget about the title! "

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace." Su Ye knelt down, showing no disappointment on his face.

He hadn't expected to get the title at first, and the reason why he proposed it on such an important occasion was to plant a seed in the hearts of the people of the world, a seed that "shuang'er is also qualified to make meritorious service and become a noble".

What's more, it can be regarded as an unexpected gain to be able to retain the official status and salary.

Seeing that he didn't have any dissatisfaction, Heng Xiao felt even more irritated.

His eyes turned around on Huo Da, and he looked at Su Ye again, his tone obviously relaxed, "Su Qing, I heard that you are already engaged, right?"

Su Ye raised his head suddenly, just in time to see Xiao Heng and Huo Da looking at each other.

As soon as Su Ye's scalp exploded, the blood on his face faded by three points.

Did the emperor already know his true identity?

Could he force himself to marry Huo Da?

No, no, he will definitely not accept such an arrangement!

It's not even a joke!

In an instant, Su Ye's thoughts changed, and he even thought of the worst outcome.

Xiao Heng smiled, and his tone was a bit more teasing, "I don't know what kind of outstanding man it is to get into Su Qing's eyes. Is he here? If you call him up, let me have a look."

Su Ye was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Huo Da.

Huo Da folded his arms, raised the corners of his mouth, and looked like "don't thank me too much" all over his body.

Su Ye's heart suddenly relaxed, and he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, my fiancé's surname is Yu Mingfeng, and she is waiting outside the palace at this time."

Xiao Heng smiled lightly, "Then call him up!"

The palace people sang: "Biography—Yu Feng goes to the palace—"

The man stepped over the threshold and walked against the light. Even though he was dressed in common clothes, he couldn't hide his calm demeanor.

When the man's deep eyes looked over, Su Ye's heart filled up in an instant, and all the tension, worry, and anxiety disappeared.

No matter what kind of danger the next will be, there will be someone to walk with him.

Yu Feng withdrew his gaze and knelt down calmly, "Grassman Yu Feng, see Your Majesty."

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, with a bit of admiration on his face - such a person really shouldn't be confined to the countryside.

"Yu Feng, I see that your steps are steady and your figure is strong. Have you ever practiced martial arts?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Cao Min once served in the Mobei Army. He practiced every day and learned every move."

Xiao Heng spoke softly, "Since that's the case, how about I find a position for you in the army?"

Yu Feng paused, and replied bluntly: "Thank you, Caomin, for your majesty's kindness, but Caomin has no ambitions, and I'm afraid I will fail your majesty's love."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xiao Heng's eyes, and he still said unswervingly: "The imperial court is employing people, and talents like Yu Qing should serve the country."

Yu Feng clenched his fists. Although he lowered his head and said nothing, his straight spine revealed his inner persistence.

Huo Da said, "Your Majesty, everyone has their own ambitions, and it's not beautiful to force them."——Didn't it be agreed in advance?What are you doing now?

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows—allow them to make random demands, so why don't I scare them?Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮!

Behind the dragon chair, Fan Ming raised the knife on his waist.

Xiao Heng coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "General Huo is right, and since that's the case, I won't force others to do what's difficult for me."

"Su Ye, Yu Feng, I think you have made great contributions to the country, and I will give you a marriage specially for the two of you. I will also reward you with ten carts of betrothal gifts, ten dowry loads, and you will be married on an auspicious day!"

The two looked at each other subconsciously, both showing expressions of disbelief.

Su Ye was still thinking about the matter just now, and he was still in shock. He never expected such a reversal.

Not to mention Yu Feng's surprise, you must know that the marriage between Huo Da and "Su Yelan" has always been a concern for him. No matter how straightforward he appears on the surface, he still feels uneasy.

Now it was all right, the emperor personally granted him a marriage with Su Ye, and he had nothing to worry about anymore.

The two were so surprised that they forgot to thank Shane.

It wasn't until Min Zheng reminded them with a smile that both of them knelt down and responded excitedly:

"Chen/Grassman thank Your Majesty—"

When Su Ye left the palace gate, her legs were limp.

The great joy after the big surprise is really making people hate and love at the same time.

Yu Feng grabbed his waist, hugged him regardless, raised him high above his head, and shouted excitedly:

"Xiao Yezi, Your Majesty has granted us a marriage! You are mine now! You are mine alone!"

Su Ye raised her eyebrows and smiled relaxedly - you are mine now.

-

On the way back, Mu Feng walked with everyone.

He and Su Qingzhu rode horses in front, and the others took turns driving the carriage.

Winter melon is still in charge of escorting.

Aunt Chun Jiu looked at the carts of rewards behind her, and felt unreal, "Grandfather, we got so many rewards just for cooking a meal?"

Hou An said with a smile: "What we cook is not ordinary rice, what is it called...?"

"Imperial meal." Shao Ping reminded.

"Yes, imperial meal! Make imperial meal for foreign envoys!"

Aunt Chun Jiu looked at Su Ye with unspeakable awe in her eyes, "Xiao Ye is amazing!"

Su Ye and Yu Feng were driving the carriage in front. Hearing this, they turned their heads and said with a smile, "Auntie, those rewards are not just for me. Everyone has contributed, so they should be shared equally."

"Don't, don't, we're just thugs, but we're not worthy of the emperor's reward." Sister-in-law Xiao Xia waved her hands repeatedly, "I'm satisfied if I can come to the capital, even if I die immediately, it's worth it."

"Bah, bah, childish words, the wind blows away." Aunt Chun Jiu hit her, "What nonsense, how old are you? What are you dead and alive!"

Xiaoxia's sister-in-law smiled embarrassedly, "I'm just so happy, I don't know how to say this."

Aunt Chun Jiu squeezed her face, and asked instead: "Fengzi, Xiaoye, since His Majesty has granted you a marriage, the date of marriage should be fixed sooner."

Su Ye smiled and nodded, "Brother Feng said that everything is suitable for everything on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Aunt Chun Jiu counted with her fingers, "There are still more than three months, whether it is long or short, furniture, clothes, and odds and ends must be prepared, and relatives and friends must be notified, and they have to work for a while. .”

"There is also the wedding dress, the little page is so pretty, it needs to be sewn more beautifully!" Sister-in-law Xiao Xia teased with a smile.

Su Ye looked at Su Ya'er, "I have to leave this to Ya'er, I can't do it myself."

Su Ya'er nodded bluntly, "No problem!"

He loves to sew and mend, and his needlework skills are excellent.

Donggua poked his head from the side, with a flattering expression, "Brother Ya'er can sew clothes? That's amazing!"

Su Ya'er blushed, and turned her head as if she didn't hear it.

Winter Melon was not disappointed either, he was still grinning happily.

Everyone in the car looked at each other with expressions of understanding.

Aunt Chunjiu smiled and said, "Ya'er is two years older than Xiaoye, right? It's time to talk about her husband's family."

Su Ya'er was even more embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I, I'm not in a hurry, let's talk about the small page first—is it set to be on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month?"

Su Ye looked at Yu Feng with a half-smile, "I'm not sure, Brother Feng said, we have to build the house first."

Just as Yu Feng wanted to explain, Aunt Chun Jiu said, "That's the reason. Your thatched hut is too simple to support such a big wedding!"

Xiaoxia's sister-in-law echoed: "The kitchen and dining room are all built, the only thing missing is the main house to sleep in. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone is free, and each person builds one. It will be completed before winter."

Yu Feng made a bitter face—is it really possible?

-

When I went out, there were four horses and two carts. When I came back, there were more than a dozen carriages.

The wooden boxes tied with red silk were stacked tightly next to each other, although they were stained with dust, they were still conspicuous.

Su Ye has an official status, they walked the official road, lived in post houses, and with the escort of officers and soldiers, the journey was very peaceful.

Arriving in Tonghua Township, the scene along the way gradually became familiar.

Passing through various villages, adults and children all ran out to watch.

The people working in the fields also put down their hoes one after another, watching with surprise and envy.

"Where did the high officials come from?" People discussed loudly.

Someone recognized Su Qingzhu and raised his voice and said: "Isn't that Shuang'er from Yujia Village? He followed Xiao Xiantong to the capital a few days ago."

Everyone was pleasantly surprised, "Could it be that the little fairy boy is back?"

"It must be, you see so many things, and there are officers and soldiers escorting them, others can't bear it!"

"Hey, I'm back! With him here, we can feel at ease."

"Isn't it!"

The adults gathered together to sigh, and the children ran after the carriage, yelling and shouting.

"Big carriage! Big carriage!"

Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, Yu Feng carried the little radish heads into the carriage with a smile.

The adults are not worried, and the children are not afraid either, they all screamed excitedly.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief——

Go home!
