Chapter 74: Royal messenger (1/2)

Chapter 74 The Royal Messenger

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and the Yang family had been calm and calm, and nothing unusual happened.

It's rare to have such a quiet time, Yang Tengjing set his heart to concentrate on the practice and the effect was quite good.

On this day, the noble guests from the imperial capital came to Fenglei Town, and the patriarchs and leaders of the four major families came to greet them.

The distinguished guest who came to Fenglei Town was the imperial envoy of the Izumo Empire. Fenglei Town was once every ten years. The main task was to inspect various situations in Fenglei Town and collect taxes from Fenglei Town during the past ten years.

Because Fenglei Town is located on the westernmost edge of the Izumo Empire, it is far away from the capital of the Empire, and it takes three months to reach it, so the Empire will send an envoy to visit once every ten years.

The time when the royal envoys arrived, it became the most important day in Fenglei Town.

When the royal envoys leave, they will bring their children to the Royal Academy to study.

Therefore, Yang Teng was included in the list of the Yang family's envoys.

The important task of welcoming the envoys this year will be received by the Wang family, which is why the Wang family is responsible for hosting this year's competition.

According to previous standards, Yang Wudi sent someone to send the tax that the Yang family should pay to the Wang family long ago. Today's only task is to welcome the messenger, let Yang Teng meet the messenger, and then follow the messenger to the capital.

The old man warned Yang Teng many times that he must have a good attitude when welcoming the messenger, and leave the best impression on the messenger. Only by studying at the Royal Academy in the future can he succeed.

To the east of Fenglei Town, a road leads to the distance.

At this end of the road, the heads of the four major families and the heads and faces of Fenglei Town are all in the list. According to their status, younger generations like Yang Teng can only stand at the end of the team.

Three days ago, a messenger reported in advance to inform Fenglei Town to make preparations in advance.

Before dawn, the team welcoming the envoy was waiting here, but two hours passed, and the shadow of the envoy did not appear on the road.

Seeing that it was almost noon, people were already waiting impatiently, and there was still no news ahead.

Wang Shian looked anxiously into the distance. He sent someone to find out the news from a hundred miles away. There is no news yet, so it seems that it will take a while.

”Are we making a big fuss? So many people have waited so long without seeing the messenger. It's better to wait in the town and wait for the messenger's news to come out to welcome you.” Yang Teng whispered.

Yang Ningren glared at his son, ”Don't talk nonsense! Everyone is waiting with peace of mind, but you talk too much! Besides, it was the same in the past. You can't make trouble just because you have one more this year!”

In the past, the strength of the Yang family was not included in the four major clans, and those who wanted to join the welcoming envoys had no chance. Now that they can stand here, Yang Ningren dare not complain.

If such remarks reach the messenger's ears, it will be fine! Yang Ningren warned Yang Teng to shut up.

Yang Teng said angrily, but he didn't agree with him. Isn't he just a messenger? If the imperial king arrived, Fenglei Town would not be able to welcome thousands of miles away.

No matter how unhappy in his heart, Yang Teng still had to wait in accordance with the rules.

Looking at Zhao Yihang, who was standing at the back of the Zhao family's team not far away, Yang Teng secretly smiled. This guy was too rigid, standing solemnly, expressionless as if a guard was standing guard.

Zhao Yilin looked a little impatient and looked at Yang Teng from time to time.

After returning from Wang's house, Zhao Yilin went to Yang's house every day, and she could always find various reasons to say that she had something to do with Yang Teng. The relationship between the two gradually changed without knowing it.

Finding Yang Teng looking over here, Zhao Yilin smiled slightly, and she knew that Yang Teng must be impatient.

Looking at Wang's side again, Wang Qi's body was as straight as a Dragon Spear in his hand, with the spirit of a young hero.

Yang Teng shook his head secretly. What's the use of Wang Qi and Zhao Yihang's performance. Neither of them was able to enter the top two of the competition, and they were destined to miss the chance to study at the Imperial Academy.

Li Guan, who was about to go to the capital with Yang Teng, had a calm expression on his face, and he could see that he was very proud at this time.

While Yang Teng was observing these people, someone rushed from a distance and went straight to Wang Shian, who was standing at the front of the greeting team.

”Open to Patriarch, the Royal Envoy team has come fifty miles ahead, please prepare Patriarch.”

”Okay, you go down and rest.” Wang Shian was full of energy, tidied his clothes, and shouted at the team welcoming the envoys: ”Everyone, the latest news is coming from the front. The envoy team will be in Fenglei Town in fifty miles. Please prepare as soon as possible!”

Fifty li, will come soon, everyone hurriedly sorted their clothes, and checked each other where there was something wrong.

Yang Tengxin said that it was finally here.

Not long after, the dust was flying at the end of the road, and a team of people galloped from a distance.

”Everyone, please come forward with the old man to welcome the envoy!” Wang Shian shouted excitedly, and stepped forward to welcome him.

What a great style! Worthy of being a team of envoys representing the imperial royal family!

Even Yang Teng, who was used to seeing all kinds of big scenes in his previous life, nodded secretly.

Banners fluttered in the wind, and the envoy team ran wildly.

A uniform white horse, with a single horn on the top of the horse's head, and black curls growing on its four hooves, three inches from the ground and stepping into the air.

The knight riding on the horse has bright armor and bright swords and spears in his hands.

Too luxurious! Yang Teng was amazed. If nothing else, the horses these knights ride are rare animals. This is not an ordinary white horse, but a heterogeneous horse called a unicorn. It is said that the food for raising unicorns is Poly Ling Pill.
