Chapter 533: First Class
"I called you here today to discuss with you the promotion of Princess Chu, in view of the great contribution of Princess Chu to the country, after the king and the ministries discussed it, they unanimously decided to promote Princess Chu to the second class, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Song Yunshu couldn't help but be surprised, he was really rightly said by his father-in-law, and being promoted to the second class, wouldn't it represent himself and become a first-class female official from then on?
But is your contribution really that big? Directly posthumously sealed as a product.
"The minister feels that the emperor's decision is very wise, and now that the image of Princess Chu in the hearts of the people has been established, it is just appropriate to be posthumously named a first-class female official."
The first to stand up and speak was the old prime minister who had been praising Song Yunshu.
The old prime minister has always had great hopes in the palace, and when he saw that the old man said so, the ministers on the side also echoed him.
"The minister also thinks it is very suitable." Master Li followed closely with the old prime minister.
"The minister thinks so, too."
……
After a while, several ministers all agreed with the decision.
Seeing that none of the ministers objected, the emperor decided to issue an edict immediately.
"Spread my will, seal the princess of Chu Song as a first-class female official, reward 10,000 taels of gold, and 1,000 horses of silk."
The messenger on the side prepared the holy decree in green code and handed it to Princess Chu.
Looking at the holy decree in front of him, Song Yunshu still didn't dare to imagine that he would be sealed as a first-class female official in the city like this.
"Courtiers thank the emperor for Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live." After Song Yunshu knelt down and received the holy decree, he said excitedly.
"Calm down, don't thank me, you have merit, you should be thankful for yourself." His Majesty looked at Song Yunshu with a look of expectation, as if he had expected her to be so capable.
After listening to Bi Xia's words, Song Yunshu was about to get up, but suddenly felt that someone was supporting him on the side, and he was wondering, and when he looked up, he saw Chu Yuchen's handsome face.
When did he come to his side? I didn't even notice it.
Chu Yuchen carefully helped his wife up, and when he bent over, he whispered into his ear, "Wait for me by the palace gate in a while." ”
After Song Yunshu silently responded, he continued to stand back to his original position.
"Okay, let's get here first today's morning, and all Aiqing can go back." His Majesty waved his long sleeves and prepared to retreat.
Just as Zhong Aiqing saluted and was about to leave, His Majesty suddenly spoke, "King Chu wait a while, and then accompany me to play chess for a while to relieve my boredom." ”
In this way, Zhong Aiqing left the palace one after another, leaving only His Majesty and the King of Chu to discuss in the palace.
When Song Yunshu was walking out of the imperial study, she heard someone calling her behind her.
Looking back, it was actually his top boss, Xu Hao, the new head of the household department.
"The courtier, Song Yunshu, said hello to the head of the household."
"Xu Hao, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, greets Princess Chu."
The two of them respectfully performed the proper etiquette.
Xu Hao slowly spoke, "Congratulations to Princess Chu for being promoted to a first-class female official." ”
"Thank you for your concern, we will be working together in the future, and I hope to take care of each other."
"That's natural, if the princess of Chu doesn't understand anything on the way to the office, she can ask the minister questions, and the minister will do his best to answer for the princess of Chu."
Looking at Xu Hao in front of him, with an honest and sincere look, Song Yunshu couldn't help but feel relieved, it seems that he met a good boss this time.
"As for what I don't understand, it will probably take a few more days to ask you for advice, and I have to complete the handover of the work in the past few days before I can go to the household department."
"Princess Chu can rest assured that she will hand over the work, I am really looking forward to working with Princess Chu, I have long heard that Princess Chu is a person, generous and gentle, and today I saw that it was really the case."
"Lord Xu praised it falsely, the courtiers are far from being as gentle and generous as you said, and they will work together in the future, and please bear with me Lord Xu."
"That's natural, the minister is looking forward to the arrival of Princess Chu in the household department."
"Well, I've already arrived at the gate of the palace, so I'll go first. Lord Xu should pay attention to safety on the road. ”
"Xu Hao, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, send off Princess Chu." Xu Hao bent down until Song Yunshu left.
After Song Yunshu and Xu Hao said goodbye, they saw Xiao Wu standing by the carriage waiting for him.
walked straight to Xiao Wu, but before he could speak, he heard Xiao Wu say excitedly, "Congratulations to Madame, I am really happy for Madame." ”
Looking at Xiao Wu's excited face, Song Yunshu was also a little overwhelmed, "Okay, I know that you are happy for me, and I am also very happy to be promoted." ”
"I was really righted by the father-in-law who just passed the decree, you really have a great joy when you enter the palace this time."
Xiao Wu said this while helping Song Yunshu to get into the carriage, although he was excited, his hands and feet were still as steady as usual.
"It's true that my father-in-law is auspicious, but Xiao Wu, how did you know that I was promoted to a first-class female official, did the news spread so quickly?"
Although Song Yunshu was very happy that he was promoted, thinking about it on the other hand, Xiao Wu's news was inevitably too well-informed, and he couldn't help but make himself suspicious.
"No, the slave and maid listened to a few adults who passed by just now, and I heard it inadvertently."
It turns out that this is the case, let's just say, how could this news spread so quickly, obviously he had just left the palace gate, but in a blink of an eye, it had already reached Xiao Wu.
"But who is that lady beside me just now? It looks a little raw. ”
"Oh, you said that just now, that's my boss, Xu Hao, the secretary of the new Ministry of Industry, and I will ask him to take care of him in the future."
"It turned out to be Madame's boss, he looks much more gentle than the previous Hubu Shangshu, the slave was worried just now that Madame you will be bullied in the Hubu, it seems that there is no need to worry about it now."
"Indeed, Xu Hao is much more gentle than the previous Ministry of Works, you can rest assured, even if it is the previous Ministry of Households, I will not let myself be bullied."
Song Yunshu glanced at Xiao Wu with relief, knowing that she had been with her for so many years, and she was thinking about herself from the bottom of her heart.
Xiao Wu nodded silently, indeed, even if it is not good, there is still the king of Chu to support his wife, looking at what has been done in the car, Mrs. asked, "Madam, will we go back to the house now?" ”
Seeing Xiao Wu standing beside the carriage and asking respectfully, Song Yunshu was a little unbearable.
"Don't go back, let's wait here for the King of Chu to come and go back together. You came up and sat in the carriage with me, and it was strange that it was hot to stand at the bottom. ”
Hearing Song Yunshu's words, Xiao Wu immediately shook his head, "Don't you dare, you are a lady, how can I sit in the carriage with you." ”
Listening to Xiao Wu's words, Song Yunshu thought that he had to let him sit up today, he had been with him for so long, and he was still so polite to himself.
"Oh, how can we do this between the two of us, you have been with me for so many years, hurry up and sit up, I'll be angry if I don't sit up."
"......"
"But what, the King of Chu will have to come out for a while, you just sit for a while, and you should accompany me to relieve my boredom."
