Chapter 154: Can't go out
In the dead of night, a fire suddenly broke out in a corner of Yongdu City. The fire burned all night until dawn was about to be extinguished.
This matter soon spread throughout Yongdu City, and when Sang Qingrou woke up, Ruyu told her the news.
"Miss, last night, something big happened in the city. ”
"What's the big deal?" Sang Qingrou stretched her waist, not fully awake from her sleep.
Ruyu helped her get up and make up her makeup, and said, "Miss, you can't guess what's going on, last night, a fire burned the Jiang family clean, and there was nothing left." Fortunately, there was no one living in the house, otherwise, it would have killed someone. Strange to say, the fire burned down the entire house, but it did not affect the surrounding houses. ”
"What did you say?"
Sang Qingrou put down the comb and looked at Ruyu: "Jiang family, which Jiang family?"
"What other Jiang family can there be, isn't it the Jiang Mansion that you went to with His Royal Highness King Chen yesterday? On the same day, Mrs. Jiang went to the nunnery where she used to go, and Jiang Ligongzi was originally homeless. There was only one old housekeeper left, who was guarding in front of Imperial Doctor Jiang's grave last night. It was also fortunate that he guarded it, otherwise the old butler would have been burned to ashes along with the house. ”
"How did it burn?"
Before they could find the clues of the ancient books from the Jiang Mansion, the Jiang family was gone. Could it be that someone did this on purpose, not wanting them to find clues to the ancient books?
Didn't you say that the ancient books of the Jiang family had long since disappeared?
The fire in the Jiang family appeared too strangely, Sang Qingrou was puzzled, and always felt that there was something greasy hidden here.
"Ruyu, get ready, let's go out and see what the situation is. ”
Ruyu swallowed and vomited, and there was no response.
Sang Qingrou looked at her strangely: "What's wrong?"
"Miss, I'm afraid not today. Probably, not in the last few days. ”
"Why? I'm not grounded. My father said that I can come and go in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion at will, and no one can stop me. What else are you afraid of!"
"The lord just brought a letter from the palace, so that the young lady hurriedly prepares, the holy decree will be sent to the mansion with the lord today, and the young lady will prepare to receive the decree. In the next period of time, the young lady must be in the prime minister's mansion, and the old man found a discipline to come over silently to teach the young lady the etiquette in the palace. ”
When Sang Qingrou heard this, the whole person was stunned.
"Why should I learn the etiquette of the palace? My father can't be stimulated and want to send me to the palace? How can that work? I won't agree. Just like me, what should I do if I scare the emperor. No, no, no!"
Ruyu was stunned by Sang Qingrou's words, and she had to admire her brain, she dared to think about any possibility.
"Miss, how could the lord send you to the palace? You are the one who has a marriage contract with His Royal Highness King Chen!"
"What's that?"
"It is said that it seems that the matter of the epidemic has been solved, His Royal Highness King Chen has meritorious, and the emperor is ready to reward meritorious deeds, and hold a palace banquet in the palace, and the eldest lady will enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet. ”
When you enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet, isn't that to see the emperor?
"Am I the only one?"
In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, she finally waited for this day.
"The slave maid hopes that you are the only one who goes, so that the second lady will not be proud. In fact, the second lady will also go along. Because, she is also one of the heroes of this epidemic. However, Ruyu feels that the hardest thing is you, Miss. ”
Sang Qingrou smiled and waved her hand: "It's not important!"
What she cares about most is whether Sang Xiaoxi can get credit. Ouyang Shuo can let the emperor take back his order in front of everyone at that time, presumably, at that time, the emperor is not easy to refuse.
Shouldn't I remind Ouyang Shuo that when the time comes, don't be carried away by happiness and forget the most important thing.
Otherwise, they will be busy all this time.
As soon as she thought that Sang Qingrou was about to get rid of the shackles of the marriage contract, she was relaxed. Once she's free, she'll be able to play around.
She smiled: "Ruyu, when Miss I am free, I will take you all over the world, how about it? ”
"Miss, the master won't let you go. ”
"My life is my own decision. He's my father, and he doesn't care where I go! When the time comes, I'll take you everywhere to play and eat the food of every place. The world is so big, you don't want to see it?"
The picture described by Sang Qingrou is too beautiful, how can Ruyu not be tempted?
However, Ruyu knows better that there are some things that are too unrealistic.
"Miss, the slave maid thinks that you should not think too much about this matter. Freedom can really be a luxury for you. ”
"You girl, why are you still pouring cold water on me?"
During the fight, Sang Qingrou finally got ready and took Ruyu to the main hall to wait for the holy decree.
When she arrived, everyone was waiting there. This is a big deal for everyone. Sang Xiaoxi stood beside Liu Mei and dressed up specially, although she was still wearing a plain dress, she looked extraordinarily energetic.
Sang Xiaoxi glanced at Sang Qingrou, looked ahead without squinting, and said nothing.
Jin Yuyan doesn't care about this, at this moment, she only has her excellent daughter in her eyes.
"Qingrou, come here, let me see, are you ready?"
"Mother, I naturally won't embarrass you, so you can rest assured. ”
"My good daughter, you have not let me down. I knew you were the best. The fly in the ointment is the scar on his face, every time Jin Yuyan sees it, his heart aches faintly.
Otherwise, her daughter would be the most perfect.
Sang Xiaoxi listened to their mother and daughter chatting, and stood aside with a cold face, indifferent until the carriage in the palace stopped at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jin Yuyan led everyone in the house to greet him.
Sang Chengyuan got out of the carriage with a smile, accompanied by the father-in-law beside the emperor. What he was holding in his hand was the holy decree embroidered with the dragon pattern on the golden brocade.
He cocked his orchid fingers, talked and laughed with Sang Chengyuan all the way, and after seeing Sang Qingrou, his eyes lit up.
"If our family is not mistaken, this is Prime Minister Sang's daughter-in-law, Miss Sang, right? ”
"My father-in-law praised it!"
"Sang Xiang is too modest! In this way, we should read the holy decree first, get down to business, and I will return to the palace to resume my life. All the people of the Sang family knelt down to listen to the holy decree. ”
As soon as the male duck's throat opened, everyone knelt in front of him, and Sang Qingrou had no choice but to follow the customs.
The content of the holy decree is written in a crepe manner, which probably means that they are to enter the palace, and the emperor uses the palace banquet as a reward.
When Sang Qingrou just raised her head, she happened to see Sang Xiaoxi looking at her, with arrogance and smugness on her face, Sang Qingrou was stunned.
Do you need to be so happy to participate in the palace banquet?
