Chapter 42: The Divine Decree
Early the next morning, Jiang Aoxue woke up from the warm quilt, it wasn't that Jiang Aoxue was diligent and didn't sleep, and Jiang Aoxue was very excited now, and she couldn't wait for the holy decree to appear in front of her immediately.
Jiang Aoxue on this side was very excited, but the court on the other side was surrounding Baili Minghui's marriage event, and there was a discussion of understanding.
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Lord Yan is the god of war and values the faith of the people, how can he marry a civilian woman, I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules!"
An old minister dressed in a black surrender with gray hair bent over and said to Baili Meiji on the stage. Baili Mingzhi helplessly supported his chin with his hand, and secretly rolled his eyes, hum, only the old ministers of his father's generation would live by the rules like this.
But Baili Meiji couldn't get rid of these old ministers, after all, they became courtiers in their father's generation. There is no merit and hard work, this is one of them, and there must be power inside and outside the court of these old ministers, Baili Mingzhi has only become the emperor not long ago, if you rashly get rid of them, I am afraid that it will cause a war, and there is no other way than to let those old ministers resign from their positions, so this is the reason why Baili Mingzhi is panicking to hold the imperial examination.
"The minister thinks that what Lord Shangshu said is very right, Lord Yan Wang is a god in a war, if you don't give Lord Yan a wife who wants to be a wife, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."
This is an extremely young voice, and Baili Mingji is finally willing to raise his eyelids and look down, it is Chai Tianyou's idiot.
Baili Mingzhi is now eager to let people drag Chai Tianyou out and behead him, it's really a guy who doesn't have enough brains, and he dares to do something bad. Baili Mingzhi feels that his green muscles are about to rise, and Baili Mingzhi is now very glad that he only gave Chai Tianyou a position of a small household official, but fortunately he did not give it to a high-ranking official, otherwise according to this Chai Tianyou's IQ, I am afraid that I will not be born in this court!
"Okay, okay, then Jiang Aoxue was proposed by King Yan himself to marry, I believe that King Yan has already figured it out by himself, so you still don't fight, that's it, it's nothing, right? There's nothing to do, that little plum retreats. ”
Finally exhausted by patience, Baili Meiji waved his wide sleeves and retreated, without giving the old ministers the slightest chance to stay, and Baili Mingji stepped on the yellow shoes embroidered with dragon heads.
Chai Tianyou, who was still bent over, was about to crush his silver teeth, and that Jiang Aoxue had to agree to my proposal, it turned out that he had already climbed the high branch of Lord Yanwang, what a good thigh to hold!
Chai Tianyou thought about it again and again, but in the end he still didn't have the courage to spread the rumors of Jiang Aoxue, the future wife of King Yan, outside. Chai Tianyou is afraid that if he is found out, then Lord Yan Wang and the emperor must let themselves not be able to eat and walk around, this time Chai Tianyou only has the IQ remains, so that Chai Tianyou did not die big, but Jiang Aoxue and Baili Mingzhi still hope that Chai Tianyou will die, because in this way, they can get rid of a fool without effort.
Baili Mingji, who returned to the imperial study, waved his hand and asked the eunuch who passed the decree to draw up a holy decree, and then passed it to the Yongxin Waiting Mansion, and then asked Jiang Aoxue to receive the decree.
The little eunuch who received the order quickly drew up a holy decree, and then hurried to Yongxin Houfu.
"Miss! Miss! Oops...... Tear...... Miss, someone from the palace has come to the palace, and someone from the palace has come to pass on the holy decree. ”
This time, it was no longer the evening clouds that were in such a hurry, and it was no longer the evening clouds that did not care about the image, and it had always been a dignified and virtuous breeze. Qingfeng ran in a hurry, and when he entered the house, he was knocked down by the high threshold, but he still didn't forget to say that important thing. Qingfeng rubbed her sore knee, and secretly swore in her heart that she would never scold her angrily because Wanyun fell down because she ran in a hurry, because Qingfeng found that the threshold seemed to be quite high!
"Miss, someone from the palace has worn a holy decree, and the old lady asked me to ask you to go to the front door to welcome the holy decree."
Qingfeng, who finally stood up, patted the dust on his body, pretended that nothing had happened just now, and said to himself what he had just said to the old lady.
"yes, okay."
Jiang Aoxue nodded, indicating that she knew, and then stabilized her excited mood, pretending not to know the content of the holy decree, and calmly walked to the main door.
At the main entrance, a little eunuch wearing a blue eunuch uniform in the palace was holding a rolled, yellow holy decree in his hand. And below the little eunuch, his grandmother, mother, eldest brother, Jiang Hu, Aunt Qiao, Aunt Cui, and even the sister-in-law who was about to give birth were all kneeling in front of the little eunuch, and it was obvious that as long as Jiang Aoxue arrived, the holy decree would be announced.
Jiang Aoxue wanted to keep everyone from kneeling for a long time, especially her elderly grandmother and sister-in-law who was about to finish giving birth, she was afraid of an accident, so Jiang Aoxue quickly ran to her mother's side with her skirt and knelt down.
"Jiang Aoxue took the order."
When the little eunuch saw that Jiang Aoxue had finally come, he solemnly sent a yellow holy decree.
"The people's daughter takes the order."
"Jiang Aoxue, the eldest daughter of Yongxin Houfu, has been good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, dignified and virtuous, courteous in advance and retreat, and is a good candidate to be Mrs. Yan Wangzheng, so I once again married King Yan and Jiang Aoxue, the eldest daughter of Yongxin Houfu, hoping that the two can become a pair of mandarin ducks with a good life, and I admire this."
"The people's daughter takes the order."
Jiang Aoxue stretched out her hands above her head to show her respect for the Holy Decree.
"Alright, alright, Miss Jiang, please get up."
Jiang Aoxue got up with the support of Qingfeng, and then took off the purse from her waist, and then stuffed it into the little eunuch who announced the decree.
"It's hard work, father-in-law."
"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, Miss Jiang is so polite, she must be a match made in heaven with Lord Yan!"
"Thank you father-in-law for your kind words, Qingfeng, you go and send your father-in-law back to the palace."
The little eunuch tossed the weight of the purse in his hand, and then under the leadership of Qingfeng, he walked out of the main gate of Yongxin Houfu in a good mood. Although Jiang Aoxue has never been in the palace in his previous life, except for yesterday's banquet in this life, these people still know how to afford it, after all, spending a little silver is less troublesome, why not do it.
"Aoxue, how are you talking to Lord Yan...... This...... Alas...... Grandma didn't know what to ask. ”
Jiang Aoxue turned around and said with a smile: "Grandma, in fact, I have known Lord Yan for a long time, and then I ...... yesterday Well...... As you can see, King Yan told the emperor, and then the emperor gave us two marriages. ”
The more Jiang Aoxue said that her face would be red, after all, girls are thin-skinned, and when they talk about such love and love, they must blush and heartbeat.
"Aoxue, you will soar in the future, but don't forget your brother and me, and this Yongxin Houfu."
Jiang Xiu, who was unwilling to be lonely, ran out again to pull out her sense of existence, Jiang Aoxue nodded and said that she would definitely not forget Yongxin Houfu, after all, Yongxin Houfu is also her own mother's home, isn't it?
Just when Jiang Aoxue was like the stars holding the moon, Zhuo Ximeng quietly withdrew from the crowd.
"Miss?"
Zhuo Ximeng's wedding maid - Lian Yu wiped his hand stalk on his neck, Zhuo Ximeng shook his head and said in a low voice: "Don't panic, now Jiang Aoxue is in the limelight, if we act rashly, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to us, and everything will have to wait for Jiang Aoxue to marry into King Yan's mansion." ”
The two thought that no one heard their conversation, but they didn't know that Jiang Aoxue had already received a secret guard, and the secret guard also heard their conversation clearly and wrote it down.
"Sister...... Sister ......"
Jiang Hu, who was ignorant on the side, curiously pulled Jiang Aoxue's sleeve, Jiang Aoxue lowered her head along the way, and took out Jiang Hu's little fat hand that she put in her mouth.
"What's wrong? Sister's little tiger? ”
"Sister, are you leaving, sister, don't you want Xiaohu anymore? Woowoowoo...... Xiaohu didn't want her sister to go, and her sister said that she would accompany Xiaohu to grow up. ”
Aunt Qiao heard Jiang Hu say that she wanted Jiang Aoxue to grow up with Jiang Hu, and hurriedly squatted down, gently rubbed Jiang Hu's little head and said dotingly: "Xiaohu, you can't be so selfish, if Sister Aoxue really grows up with Xiaohu, then Sister Aoxue is already about the same age as her mother." At that time, my sister will have no one to ask for it, and my sister will be very unhappy, just like the days of Xiaohu in the past. ”
"Oh...... Oh......"
Jiang Hu nodded ignorantly, and Jiang Aoxue on the side looked at the scene of filial piety with envy. Jiang Aoxue looked up at her mother who was walking into the house, when will my mother and I be able to do this. At this time, Jiang Aoxue didn't know that Zhuo Ximeng only had hatred for himself and no love, Zhuo Ximeng couldn't wait to eat Jiang Aoxue's meat, drink Jiang Aoxue's blood, and pick Jiang Aoxue's tendons, of course, all of this is a later story.
Jiang Aoxue, who returned to the yard, was a little happy and a little lost, happy that she and Baili Minghui finally had a lover and finally became married, and she was disappointed that she was going to get married, but her mother still didn't come to ask her. Since Jiang Aoxue rescued Aunt Qiao from her miserable life last time, Zhuo Ximeng has never said a word to Jiang Aoxue again. Grandma also persuaded Zhuo Ximeng not to be so sharp, but it was still useless, Zhuo Ximeng still ignored Jiang Aoxue, Jiang Aoxue talked to Zhuo Ximeng, and Zhuo Ximeng also ignored it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Aoxue, who was originally very happy because of the holy decree, instantly felt a little melancholy.
Jiang Aoxue thought of Baili Minghui and cheered up again, hoping that the embarrassment between me and my mother through this marriage would disappear with it, I don't want to see the mother who ignored people with a straight face.
