Outside, Dai Quan and Mama Zhu in the queen's palace arrived together, and everyone hurriedly stood up to greet them, secretly surprised by the deep kindness of the Lin family.

Dai Quan and Lin Zhao smiled and said: "Your Majesty and Prince Heng also wanted to come to watch the ceremony, but the queen thought it was incompatible with the ceremony, and she was afraid that the big guys would be restrained, so she persuaded the two nobles." Let our family and Mama Zhu go through this on their behalf. I hope Uncle Lin will not be surprised. ”

Lin Zhao said with a smile: "The two of you are willing to come to watch the ceremony, just to give our Lin family a great face, where did you come from? ”

Lin Zhao greeted Dai Quan and Mama Zhu and went to the top. As soon as the auspicious time came, Lin Jue got up to salute, Princess Beijing came out first, washed her hands, and took her seat on the west steps; Daiyu followed and walked out, to the center of the hall, facing south, bowing to the guests, and then facing west to sit on the seat. Princess Beijing gently combed Daiyu's hair a few times, and then put the comb on the south side of the mat.

After Princess Beijing was reinstated, the eldest princess got up, and Lin Zhao then got up to accompany her. The eldest princess washed her hands and dried them at the foot of the east steps. The eldest princess and Lin Zhao asked each other to return to their seats and sit down.

Daiyu turned to sit in the east, the eldest princess washed her hands again, and then reset; the Baoqin tray stepped forward and offered the hairpipe, and the eldest princess took it and walked to Daiyu; Abandon your young ambitions, and become virtuous. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. ”

Then he knelt down and combed Daiyu's hair, then got up and returned to his original position. Princess Beijing symbolically corrected Daiyu. Daiyu got up, and all the princesses and princesses congratulated Daiyu. Daiyu returned to the east room, and Princess Beijing took the plain skirt that matched Daiyu's hairpin from Baoqin, and went to the room to help Daiyu change it.

After Daiyu left the room in a skirt, she showed it to all the princesses and orders. The second plus hairpin, wearing a curly and deep coat, bowed to the eldest princess, which was for the second worship, thanking the teacher and the predecessors for their cultivation. The third plus a hairpin crown, wearing a long-sleeved skirt dress, bowed to heaven and earth, for the third worship, thanking heaven and earth for the virtue of creating man. And then put the liquor, Jiaozi, Dai Quan pinched the point and stepped forward to announce the decree, and Emperor Xiaode gave Daiyu the word Qinghe.

Lin Zhao nodded, expressing great satisfaction.

The clear river, taken from the Book of Songs, is clear and rippling.

Of course, there is another meaning, Li Qingzhao of the Great Zhou is Lin Daiyu, the word Qinghe, known as Lin Qinghe, is really dignified!

Then Mama Zhu stepped forward and taught Daiyu on behalf of the emperor and empress, which was nothing more than some clichés of "bowing and being cautious, gentle and virtuous". Originally, this ceremony was for Lin Zhao to represent Lin Ruhai and Jia Min in Shandong, but Dai Quan and Zhu Mama were temporarily replaced, but it was better. Finally, Daiyu thanked all the participants, and the ceremony was completed.

After Sister Feng shouted "Licheng", Dai Quan stepped forward again and took out the bright yellow holy decree from his sleeve: "Lin Zhao takes the decree." ”

Lin Zhao's face changed, he glanced up at Dai Quan, and then bowed his hand, wondering in his heart: Could it be that my cheap parents are going to enter Beijing?

Sure enough, as he expected, the central idea of Emperor Xiaode's long holy decree was only two sentences: Lin Ruhai, the governor of Shandong, worked hard and made great achievements, was promoted to the head of the household department, and entered Beijing as soon as possible! Lin Zhao was even more meritorious, and he was crowned the governor of Jinyi Wei Zuo, and he chose a good day and an auspicious day, married the Xue family, and rested at home.

Lin Zhao nodded and stretched out his hand to take the holy decree.

It seems that the emperor is going to reuse the cheap Lao Tzu Lin Ruhai! So he hung him high! Leaving a false title and reaping real power is also the emperor's balancing technique!

But Lin Zhao didn't care!

Is he not having any official position, and he is not rampant in the world?

After receiving the order, Dai Quan smiled and said: "Congratulations to Uncle Lin and the county lord Chang Huan, Your Majesty explained that Uncle Lin and the county lord have worked hard today, so there is no need to enter the palace to thank you." Today's matter is over, and our family and others will go back to the palace to reply to the decree first. ”

The housekeeper Lin Yang hurriedly followed Dai Quan and Mama Zhu and others out, and handed over the prepared red envelopes by the way, Dai Quan and Mama Zhu did not shirk and took them away with a smile.

Everyone hurriedly congratulated.

At the beginning of the ceremony, Tanchun was called back to her seat by Mrs. Wang. After the ceremony, he didn't come in again, taking advantage of the gap between Jia's mother and Lin Jue and Daiyu talking, Tanchun tried to talk to Princess Beijing, but unfortunately the latter was a little depressed because of his nervous mood after the ceremony, and he left not long after, Yingchun was allowed to stay and help, and it was okay to go back later, Tanchun suddenly felt bored.

Sister Feng and Baoqin also stayed to help.

Tanchun returned to Jiafu with Mrs. Wang, and her expressionless expression couldn't help it after entering Qiushuangzhai, and she couldn't help crying on the table. The panicked servant was both comforting and wiping away tears, and finally she said unfairly: "The county lord is too, since he has left the second grandmother, the fourth girl, and the Qin girl, why don't you leave the girl behind? And the second grandmother and the fourth girl and the girl are generally serious relatives of the county lord, and I can't say anything, but although the Qin girl is the cousin of the treasure girl, how can she compare with the girl? How can you keep her and not keep the girl? ”

Tanchun cried and shook his head: "Don't blame Sister Lin, I saw her want to speak several times, but the wife is here, and the ancestor didn't speak, where can she say anything? The fourth sister also wanted to speak, but before she could say that, my wife told me that I should go home, so she didn't dare to say anything—my wife said so, how dare I stay?"

When the waiter heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Mrs. is like this, how can the girl be good......?" Girl, don't blame me for being too talkative, you can only get to know more nobles if you make friends with the county lord and find a way to follow the county lord out more, and ...... in the future It's easy to say goodbye in the future. ”

Tanchun cried: "How I don't know this truth. But you have also seen the current situation, the wife only said that the second brother has not yet started a family, and there is no reason to cross the elder brother to propose marriage to his sister. What can I do? I'm just like Sister Lin, and I'm also in time this year, but look at Sister Lin, not only do I have a lifelong support, but I also held such a grand ceremony. As for me, what do I have? I don't know where my lifelong future is, and I can't even do it. I, I ....... Tanchun couldn't even say anything when he cried.

Tanchun is so shrewd, the matter between himself and Lin Zhao is hidden from everyone, even the servant does not know.

When she came to the Lin Mansion this time, she actually wanted to have more contact with Lin Zhao, even if she said a word!

But he was not idle, so that the two of them didn't even meet their eyes!

What is the oppression and humiliation that Mrs. Wang gave her?

The waiter said worriedly: "As long as the wife's heart is in our house, there is nothing I don't know." But I wasn't in a hurry earlier, but now I'm in a hurry but I can't find the wishful one, I only bring tiredness and bitterness to the girl. ”

Tanchun wiped away her tears and said: "I only hope that the eldest sister in the palace will make a decree earlier, so that my wife's heart will be fulfilled." ”

The waiter said: "Yes, the second master is sixteen years old, and if he doesn't do family affairs, it's really late." ”

Tanchun said indifferently: "It's too late to get married." If the second sister-in-law, who didn't know where she had come in a few years earlier, she would have been able to live a good life for a few years, but now that she has just come in, it will be the end of the world, what good can she get? It's just to attract the resentment of the eldest sister-in-law. ”

The waiter said: "Why does it have something to do with the eldest grandmother again?"

Tanchun glanced at her and said, "With Bao Er's grandmother, can the eldest sister-in-law still manage the house?"

The waiter suddenly understood: "Not really. He sighed again: "In this way, these days, I'm afraid there will be trouble in our house." ”
