Chapter 381 (1/2)



381 Leaving the capital (2)

Then, he suddenly realized that he had boasted too much, to the point that he believed it.

“……. Xu Qi ‘an is conferred the title of Changle County’s son, and is bestowed with 30 Qing of fertile land and 500 taels of gold.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.”

Xu Qi ‘an shouted the slogan and stood up to receive the edict.

“Congratulations, Lord Xu … Oh, it’s Xu Xianzi.” The eunuch said with a smile.

“Many thanks, eunuch Liu.”

Xu Qi ‘an took the Imperial edict and handed over a hundred tael Silver Note.

When the eunuch and the guards stayed behind, second uncle Xu snatched the Imperial edict and read it over and over again for a long time. He clearly couldn’t read a few words, but he read it seriously.

As he looked, second uncle Xu’s eyes turned red.

“I’ve been conferred a title of nobility, conferred a title of nobility … My Xu family has a Viscount.”

He ran back to the backyard with the Imperial edict and shouted, “”Madam, quickly write a letter to the Xu family. The Xu family has a Viscount. I’m going to hold a feast for three days and three nights, hahahahaha …”

Xu Qi ‘an picked up the box of gold and land deeds that Emperor Yuan jing had given him and sneaked back to his room.

Second uncle was such a fool. How could an imperial edict be more important than gold?

………..

After storing the gold into the fragment of the book of the nether world, Xu Qi ‘an returned to the inner courtyard and saw second uncle Xu and Erlang fighting over the Imperial edict. The father and son almost started fighting.

“Those who don’t know would think that the Imperial edict is for you, father,” Xu Erlang said unhappily.

“Get lost!” Second uncle Xu said.

“I just want to see how the Imperial edict is written,” Xu Erlang said, slightly angry.

“Get lost!” Second uncle Xu said.

“Father, let me see the Imperial edict,” Xu Erlang said angrily.

“Get lost,” second uncle Xu said.

‘Bah, vulgar martial artist …’ Xu Erlang flicked his sleeves and left, returning to his study to read.

What was a Viscount? he wanted to be inscribed on the Golden roll and be the top scorer. Otherwise, all the limelight in the family would be stolen by big brother.

“He’s, he’s really been conferred a noble title?”

The aunt looked at the Imperial edict in her husband’s arms, and her eyes widened. She had not come to her senses yet, and it was as if she was living in a dream.

He wasn’t prepared at all.

“How could it be fake? there’s a Jade seal stamped on it. His Majesty even bestowed five hundred taels of gold and thirty acres of fertile land.” Xu Pingzhi said loudly, as if he was afraid that others would not believe him.

Five hundred taels of gold and thirty acres of fertile land … A golden glint flashed in his aunt’s eyes.

“Da Lang, is this true? Why do I feel like I’m living in a dream?” The aunt grabbed Xu Qi ‘an’s hand.

Xu Qi ‘an shook her off. Madam, ” he said, ” don’t try to get close to me. Call me Lord Viscount.
