After all, Empress Wei is the only favored queen, and she has the highest status in the palace except for the emperor. Therefore, when the queen spoke, the palace began to get busy, and in just one day, everything needed for sealing was ready.

As for the ones needed for the ceremony, the phoenix crowns and veils that were given to the women. Certainly not new.

In fact, the Ministry of Rites has one or two sets of stock, just to prevent the emperor from suddenly wanting to seal the family members of which officials that day. However, there is no stock for more than four grades.

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not seal the edict as frequently as the previous dynasty, so it was not the Lady of the Decree who walked all over the place. The emperor rewarded the wives of officials, and they did not all follow their husbands, for example, Mrs. Xie Xiang and Mrs. Gu were both second-class orders, and the slightly younger Mrs. Li Xiang actually did not have a seal, but her mother-in-law was a third-grade order.

At present, in the entire Great Zhou, there are no more than ten orders for a product, two of which are in the Anguo Mansion, and in the entire Great Zhou, the female dependents up and down the family have been sealed, and there is only one family in the Anguo Mansion.

Therefore, in fact, the Ministry of Rites does not have the phoenix crown and seal ribbon required for the reward of more than three grades, but the queen has an order, and the Ministry of Rites has to find a way even if it is difficult. And they really put together a few sets of phoenix crowns on time to cope with errands.

As for where all these things come from, it is impossible to go into details.

For example, one of the phoenix crowns, in fact, was the wife of the first assistant prime minister of the Chengzu Dynasty, and later the first auxiliary prime minister fell down, and the family was exiled.

This time, the queen was anxious to prepare for the crown of the female dependents of the Anguo Mansion, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites were so anxious that they scratched their heads, and the treasury list was about to be turned over, and it was not easy to make up these clothes. Of course, the things are all together, but the origin can not be honest, the officials of the Ministry of Rites know in their hearts that the queen is probably too lazy to care about where this thing came from, but if the news leaks, the ladies of the Anguo Mansion will definitely be very unhappy.

Sealing with the exile of the exiled person who was raided is unlucky!

However, no matter how difficult the wives of the Anguo Mansion were, and they were not as important as the queen's orders, the officials of the Ministry of Rites still had the courage to hand over all the rewards that had been made up. The phoenix crown and the seal of the decree are such things, they are gifts from the emperor, and they are not commonly used, no matter which one will store them properly, so the things that the Ministry of Rites put together seem to be very well preserved, but after all, it has been a long time, and some colors are not bright enough, but if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.

The queen really didn't care, and when the things were sent to the palace, she just glanced at them casually, and then let people put them aside, and then let people look through the yellow calendar to find a recent good day, and prepare to hold a sealing ceremony.

When the queen Yizhi arrived at the Anguo Mansion, everyone in the mansion was surprised, but Mrs. Mu showed disappointment, she didn't say anything, and after receiving the order, she turned around and went back to the house, sent all the people out, and locked herself in the house for a long time.

When Yi Zhi arrived, Mu Hongshang was changing her clothes and preparing to go to Xie's house, she felt a little worried when she saw her grandmother's appearance, and couldn't help but knock on Mrs. Mu's door before going out.

Mrs. Mu locked herself in the house, refusing to see others, but willing to see her favorite granddaughter. After Mu Hongshang entered the door, the old lady looked at her neatly dressed granddaughter, and before she could speak, tears fell first.

"Grandmother, what's wrong?" Mu Hongshang hurriedly came to Mrs. Mu's side and hugged her grandmother's neck: "Okay, why are you sad?" Don't worry, I'm ready to go out, since Sister Xie has responded to my post, it means that Master Xie is willing to see me. I went to Xie's house to speak for my grandmother, and Lord Xie Xiang must know in his heart, since he is willing to see me, it means that he intends to help, isn't it? Besides, even if I return in vain today, won't you go to the palace tomorrow morning to beg the emperor! And the sister-in-law, the sister-in-law hasn't come back yet, maybe Master Gu has already agreed to help. ”

"Before the queen arrived, I thought the same way." Old Madam Mu put one hand around her granddaughter, patted her on the back, and tears fell faster: "But when I saw Yi Zhi, I knew that this matter was not easy to do." The emperor probably can't promise me anything, so the queen is in such a hurry to seal your uncles and sisters-in-law, this is to appease our family in advance! ”

Mu Hongshang looked at her grandmother and didn't say anything for a long time. Of course, she knew that her grandmother's words were reasonable, but she was very unwilling.

"No, it's not." Mu Hongshang choked for a long time before she hugged Mrs. Mu and drilled into her arms: "Grandmother, don't worry about it, what you said is not right, everything is reversed." When I went to Lord Jiang's house a few days ago, Lord Jiang said that Daddy's performance was very important, and the courtiers considered it from different angles, which was extremely controversial, while the important ministers of Xie Xiang needed to consider the court situation and internal affairs as a whole, and had more concerns, so most of them did not express their position easily. ”

"Grandmother, you think, the court has not yet reached a consensus, of course the emperor can't make his own decision, so he feels embarrassed, he is afraid that tomorrow you will enter the palace, can not give you a clear answer, you will be disappointed! That's why I thought about appeasing first. But grandmother, if the important ministers are willing to support our family, the emperor will soon be able to make a quick decision! So it's too early for you to be sad now, I haven't gone to Xie's house yet, and my sister-in-law hasn't come back from Gu's house. Both of them are powerful ministers who speak with great weight, and if they are willing to support their father, then the emperor will definitely quickly approve their father's recital. ”

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Mu wiped her tears, stretched out her hand and patted her granddaughter again: "I hope everything is as my granddaughter said." You're right, it's too early to be disappointed. Even if the emperor can't make a decision in the next few days, we can still continue to think of a way. Today is my fault, and I shouldn't be so distracted. Don't tell your mother that I'm just tired and want to lie down and take a nap. If I can't hold it down, they'll be even more worried. ”

"Good!" Mu Hongshang smiled at Old Madam Mu, and there was no haze in her clear glass-like eyes. Old Madam Mu looked at her granddaughter's smiling face, and after a while, she also smiled.

She reached out and touched Mu Hongsheng's hair, and sighed: "Alas! I'm really old and confused, the older I get, the more I live back, I can't stand it, and I still want you to worry about me. ”

"How could grandmother say that?" Mu Hongshang replied: "Grandmother is our family's Dinghai Divine Needle. ”
