Zhao Ruxi walked down the steps quickly, and arched his hand towards Gonggong Deng, and said with a smile: "Gonggong Deng, I can't help you come from afar and make you wait for a long time." ”

Gonggong Deng, who was still with a straight face just now, saw Zhao Ruxi and immediately smiled into a flower: "Haha, Lord Zhao, what are you talking about?" The slave eats this bowl of rice, and if he says something right, Lord Zhao is going to torture the old slave. The adults are dedicated to the public, and they are still doing things when they reach the time of the lower office, and the old slave will inevitably report to the emperor when he returns to Beijing. ”

Hearing this conversation, Liu Hongyu's face was full of complexity.

Cai Yaozong went in to call Zhao Ruxi just now, and he was outside to greet Grandpa Deng, but he knew that Grandpa Deng was not an approachable and talkative person. He has a cold face, doesn't care about people at all, and doesn't pay attention to anything you say.

In addition, although Gonggong Deng was a eunuch, when he was an official of the imperial court, Gonggong Deng also called himself me, and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he did not feel that he should be inferior to these officials.

But now in the face of Zhao Ruxi, Gonggong Deng seems to have changed as a person, a minion and a "you", this difference is not too obvious.

Seeing Zhao Ruxi approaching, Gonggong Deng smiled and said, "Lord Zhao, you can accept the order." ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the incense table and took out the holy decree.

There are cushions made by Qingfeng and others in Zhao Ruxi's house, but Lu Yun is clever, and when he heard that Zhao Ruxi was going to receive the holy decree, he touched one and held it in his hand before going out, and put the cushion in front of Zhao Ruxi at this time.

Zhao Ruxi paused when he was about to kneel, and then knelt down on the soft cushion.

Although the holy decree was given to Zhao Ruxi, the people present, whether it was Liu Hongyu or the officials and officials in the six houses, all knelt down.

It's just that these people's subordinates are shocked and curious, where is Lu Yun so clever? I don't have the slightest experience in receiving orders. Therefore, from Liu Hongyu to the officials, they all knelt in the uneven courtyard and even had small stones.

Seeing that everyone knelt down, Gonggong Deng opened the holy decree and read it aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: There is Zhao Ruxi of Suiping Bofu Zhao Zhiwei and generous, gentle and generous, outstanding in appearance, talented, and a model for women in the world. The fifth son of the current emperor, King Xiao Lingyan, is eighteen years old, and when he is suitable for marriage, he should choose a virtuous woman to match. On the value of Zhao Ruxi's treatment of the boudoir, and the fifth son of the emperor King Qi can be called heaven and earth, in order to become the beauty of the beauty, the special general Ru Xu with the fifth son of the emperor King Qi as the princess. All etiquette will be handled jointly by the Ministry of Rites and the Qintian Supervisor, and the marriage will be completed on a good day. Chin this! ”

Zhao Ruxi lowered his head, and when he finished reading, he saluted: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live." ”

The rest of the people who knelt there in a daze were like waking up from a dream, and they hurriedly followed suit: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live." ”

Gonggong Deng rolled up the holy decree and handed it to Zhao Ruxi, with a smile on his face: "Princess Qi, the slave is here to congratulate you." As he spoke, he saluted Zhao Ruxi.

The royal guards who came with him all bent down to salute Zhao Ruxi.

Li Like is much smarter than Liu Hongyu and Cai Yaozong, seeing that Liu Hongyu and the two of them looked messy in the wind and had not yet reacted, he quickly bent down, gave Zhao Ruxi a deep look, and said loudly: "Congratulations to Princess Qi, congratulations to Princess Qi." ”

The others also hurried to follow suit and salute and congratulate.

Liu Hongyu and Cai Yaozong hurriedly saluted at this time, and their hearts were extremely complicated.

Liu Hongyu didn't expect this, Rao was here yesterday, he thought about men and women, but he really didn't expect Zhao Ruxi to become the princess of Qi today.

Even if Cai Yaozong thought about it, he was mentally prepared, but when he heard the holy decree, he was still scared into a cold sweat.

He and Chen Kang also thought about making a fuss about the affairs of men and women, ruining Zhao Ruxi's reputation, so that she couldn't stay here, and went back to the capital to wait for marriage. I didn't expect to become a royal man now.

At that time, it was because of the revenge of Wu Huaisi and Wu Zong, as well as Zhao Ruxi's "hard to provoke" strength, that they did not dare to act rashly, and finally directly relented.

Thinking about his original thoughts, Cai Yaozong felt that his family was on the verge of life and death.

Chen Kang, who was standing in the corner, also had such thoughts, and secretly congratulated himself that he did not go all the way with Cai Yaozong, but chose the right path.

"Thank you." Zhao Ruxi gave them a salute in return.

She looked at Gonggong Deng: "What else does the emperor want?" Will I return to Beijing immediately? ”

"The emperor said that the princess is a court official, not an ordinary woman who waits for the word boudoir can compare. Before getting married, the princess was still an official here. Grandpa Deng said with a smile.

Zhao Ruxi became happy and saluted in the direction of the capital: "Thank you for the emperor's grace." ”

Liu Hongyu, Cai Yaozong and others felt very weird, it seemed that when they heard that they had become the princess of Qi just now, Zhao Ruxi was not as happy as they are now.

However, people may have known that there would be such a decree, and it is reasonable not to be surprised.

Thinking that in the next half a year, I will have to be an official with the future Princess Qi, the entire state government is under the emperor's attention, and the king of Qi has to come here from time to time to take a turn, Liu Hongyu and Cai Yaozong, Li Li and others all feel bad.

The days of being concerned by the top management are like stepping on a tightrope, and there is no room for half a point difference. It's been a very sad day.

Liu Hongyu and Cai Yaozong were thinking about how not to make mistakes, and Li Li was thinking about how to behave himself, so that he could get into the eyes of the high-level, and he might be promoted if he had the opportunity in the future. You must know that he was the first to hand an olive branch to the future Princess Qi.

Zhao Ruxi didn't know that these people had different thoughts, and she said to Deng Gonggong: "Father-in-law and the imperial guards have worked hard. Why don't you go down to the house and take a rest and have a light meal? ”

Liu Hongyu was clever at this time.

Zhao Ruxi only has her mother and some subordinates at home, and there is no male host to entertain guests, which is really inconvenient. Although Gonggong Deng is a eunuch, the guards are all men, so it is better for them to receive them.

He said: "My father-in-law and others are here for official business, so naturally they should be received by the yamen." It's better to go to Tianfu Lou and wait for the ministers to accompany you. ”

Gonggong Deng also thought of the situation in the Zhao Mansion, nodded and said, "Cheng, then Tianfu Building." However, there is no need for a yamen treat, we will pay for it ourselves. ”

"Then how can it be ......," Liu Hongyu said politely.

"Xiang Ming, you go and pay the bill." Zhao Ruxi opened his mouth and said, "Father-in-law Deng came all the way for me, and I should receive him." ”

"Haha, then bother the princess. After eating, we have to go to Gusu and read the holy decree to Ling Zun. The emperor said that Ling Zun is the head of the family, and the princess's family affairs need to be known to him. ”
