"Read the will, and the Li family will thank you." After Gonggong Jia read out the holy decree, he smiled slightly and kindly reminded Li Shudao.

"The courtier's daughter Li received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Li Shu received the decree with a smile like a flower, her watery eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, and a strand of green silk hanging down her cheeks fluttered gracefully and happily with her bowing movements.

The sixth lady beside her looked at Li Shu with envy and hatred, and her big eyes were red like a little white rabbit.

After Li Shu received the decree, Zhu Ping'an thought that there should be no holy decree now, but he was still unsure, and looked up at Gonggong Jia.

Father-in-law Jia seemed to know that Zhu Ping'an would look at it, looked at Zhu Ping'an with a slight smile, and took the initiative to speak: "The holy decree has been announced." ”

When Zhu Ping'an heard this, he didn't get up, because he felt that the smile on Father-in-law Jia's face had a deep meaning, and there was something in his words.

Sure enough, in the next second, Father-in-law Jia spoke again: "However, the saint also specially asked the miscellaneous family to pass on a message to Lord Xiao Zhu." ”

"Minister Zhu Ping'an respectfully listens to the teachings of the Holy Lord." Zhu Ping'an bowed again.

Next, Gonggong Jia conveyed Emperor Jiajing's message to Zhu Ping'an, it can be said that Emperor Jiajing's message is reasonable, appeases the ministers, and is sympathetic and serious, and it is also verbal.

"Zhu Ping'an, your kid Taicang Yinkucha is good, and he has paid a lot, I see it in my eyes. Not only me, but also the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also know the credit of your Chaku. You are the champion I appointed, full of poetry and books, loyal and virtuous, you are doing very well. I know that Zhu Ping'an, you kid, when you hear my first holy decree, you will complain in your heart that I don't know how much rewards and punishments I have. You have the difficulties of being a courtier, and I also have the difficulties of being a courtier, Taicang is difficult to return to, and extraordinary things should be done in extraordinary things, which is related to the overall situation, you must understand. Don't say it's you, it's the Taifu who has taught me for three years, and Gu Zhendong, a veteran and scholar who has assisted the Three Dynasties, although he is at home, he was also fined more than 20,000 taels of silver because of the Taicang case. ”

"After the Taicang case, I was very angry, and after this case was solved, I was even more angry, every bank official and Chaku Yushi are all trustworthy officials, but there is no one who can stand up to the matter, there is no one who is not greedy, there is no one who can help me find out the shady, all of them have failed my appointment, I am really blind."

"I am very disappointed that all the officials and the imperial historians have failed me. Could it be that all my Ming officials are so unbearable, is my Ming officialdom already dark to this extent, and is there no honest official in my Ming Dynasty? Forcing me to learn from the emperor's ancestors, is it willing to peel the skin and fill the grass? ”

"After thinking about it, I was very unwilling. In addition to being disappointed, I asked the factory guard, but there are officials who have not accepted bribes? I have received a reply, so far, there is conclusive evidence, only you kid has not accepted the Taicang article, not only you, but also your servant, has not accepted the benefits of the Taicang article. Not only can you clean yourself, but you can also be strict with your subordinates, you are doing a good job. ”

"Today, because of the inspection of the Taicang treasury, your reputation has become even greater, and it has also made me see your loyalty and ability. I now reward you with the position of a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, you have to cherish it, don't underestimate this position, although it is only from the fifth grade, but this is the only way for scholars to be promoted, I remember you. You are still young, you have to do a good job of learning, and you have to be a good official, so that you can do more practical things for me in the future......"

Balabala

After Zhu Ping'an heard this, he felt a black line in his head, Emperor Jiajing was not a talker, why did he say so many words? The number of words in the entire dictation is enough for a high school student to compose.

Gonggong Jia's words of so many words, are you sure that Emperor Jiajing said them?

Although the tone sounds like Emperor Jiajing's condescending tone, what is the reward for your position as a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, etc. However, Emperor Jiajing obviously looked cold, how could he say so many words in a rambling manner?

Zhu Ping'an was very suspicious that the oracle conveyed by Father-in-law Jia was not 100% of Emperor Jiajing's original message, but he remembered the general meaning of Emperor Jiajing's dictation, and these words were freely played by Father-in-law Jia on the spot.

If Emperor Jiajing really said so many words, how could Gonggong Jia be able to memorize them after listening to them once? Even with his ability and memory to never forget, he can only repeat these words about 90% as they are, like Gonggong Jia, who is full of emotion, fluent and clear, and does not snort at all.

Even if Gonggong Jia and the eunuchs who conveyed the oracle were trained, it would be impossible to do this.

It is estimated that the dictation is roughly like this, remember the general meaning, more than 60% of the original words, the remaining 40%, if you can't remember clearly, just follow the emperor's will, and play freely. You can't go back to the emperor and say, I'm sorry Emperor, I forgot what you just said, can you say it again?!

Keep in mind the core meaning, just play freely.

Anyway, none of the courtiers who received the order would confront the emperor.

After Gonggong Jia conveyed Emperor Jiajing's oracle, there was finally no more holy decree and oracle.

Zhu Ping'an and the others got up after receiving the decree and thanked them, asked people to put the holy decree on the incense table and worship it, and thanked Jia Gonggong with his hand: "The sun is scorching, the heat is heavy, and I am tired of Jia Gonggong who came to announce the decree hard, and Ping An is grateful." ”

"Lord Xiao Zhu is polite, the miscellaneous family runs errands for the saint, why is it hard." Father-in-law Jia smiled slightly.

"The house has prepared coarse tea and light rice, my father-in-law will rest for a while, and then go back after using the tea and rice." Zhu Ping'an stretched out his hand and asked Father-in-law Jia to sit down.

"The miscellaneous family still has the emperor's name in his body, and he doesn't dare to stop for a long time, so he will leave first." Gonggong Jia shook his head with a smile, and then led the little eunuch and the others to leave.

Zhu Ping'an sent them to the gate of the back house, and watched Father-in-law Jia get into a sedan chair and leave before returning to the house.

"Hello uncle, the maid has asked my uncle to say goodbye."

"Hello uncle, the little one has seen my uncle."

At this time, the whole of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion, including the old mother who was sweeping the floor and washing the laundry in the depths of the backyard, all knew that Zhu Ping'an had received the holy decree and was promoted to a five-grade official.

After Zhu Ping'an passed by, he looked at Zhu Ping'an's back one by one, like a chirping magpie, saying something like my uncle glanced at me, and my uncle nodded to me, as if he had won a great honor.

"Good sister, my sister received the holy decree, but she was worried that there was no holy decree in a box. If we neglect the holy decree, we will not be able to afford the sins of the entire Hou Mansion. However, my sister heard that you have a good rosewood dresser, red sandalwood is noble, and it is the most suitable for making a holy decree box, I wonder if my sister is willing to help my sister share her worries. ”

When Zhu Ping'an returned to the hall, he happened to see Li Shu talking to Miss Six with a smile like a flower, with a charming smile blooming on her delicate face, and her voice was also delicate and pleasant, but a pair of big watery eyes were full of narrow luster.

As for the sixth lady opposite Li Shu, she looked like a baby was angry but the baby couldn't say it yet, and the muscles on her face worked hard several times before she squeezed out a stiff smile, and replied as if she was being put on her neck with a knife, "It's good if my sister likes it." ”
