Zilan came out of the ranks, held a box in her arms, stepped forward step by step, walked to the front in the middle, slowly knelt down, opened the box, and put the imperial decree and the tiger talisman aside with both hands, as well as some documents and folds.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers came to return the imperial order and the tiger talisman, these are the plans I wrote, as well as the maritime map including shipping, which I have been looking for for many years to find a few, and it may be of great value in the future to stay, and now it should be returned to the original owner."

The new emperor stood up, "County Lord, why do you bother, I am not a person who cannot tolerate people. ”

Zilan raised her head and shook her head with a smile, her eyes were full of remembrance, and there was some sparkling color in her eyes.

"I still remember that I knelt bravely and recklessly at the feet of the emperor in the restaurant, expounding my dreams and visions, and my fate with the emperor began at that moment, with the tacit understanding and practice reform of our monarchs and ministers.

I promised the emperor that from now on I would never go out of the mountain, and I would return to my family in peace. I promised him that I would do it.

The emperor treated me like a daughter, and I couldn't let him down. ”

The new emperor wiped his face, and there was a complicated but extremely admiring look on his face.

"County Lord, I also need you to help me, without you, I'm afraid of ......"

Zilan smiled at him, "The emperor said something to me when he taught me, and I gave it to the emperor to encourage you."

The emperor said that you are wronged because you feel that you have been bullied, but if you are strong enough, not afraid of any difficulties and obstacles, and become a strong and fearless person in your heart, you will naturally not be afraid anymore.

I Song Zilan is inseparable from the upbringing of my relatives to this day, and I am inseparable from the kindness of the emperor, I am worthy of the entrustment of the emperor, worthy of the people's support for me, but I am sorry for my relatives, husband and children.

I want to spend the rest of my time with them without regrets. The minister retired first. ”

Zilan bowed her head respectfully and kowtowed three times, stood up and took a few steps back, turned around and walked towards the outside of the main hall.

"County Lord, you ......"

Xindi has a lot to say, but he doesn't know where to start for a while.

Zilan turned her back to him and waved her hand, "The emperor is the emperor who was taught by the first emperor with his heart, and it is what everyone expects, don't let the first emperor down." ”

The last sentence was a little choked, and he left the hall calmly and indifferently.

The new emperor waved his hand, "Read out the decree of the emperor." ”

"No. Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, the county lord of Jingyi took the initiative to hand over the imperial order and tiger talismans, loyalty, Feng Jingyi eldest princess, admiration! ”

The will is very simple and not complicated, it is to keep Zilan's meaning, of course, everyone also hears it, the first emperor means that if she takes the initiative to hand over the imperial decree and the tiger talisman, it is enough to show her loyalty and be eligible for the title of the eldest princess.

This is also the last test and protection of Zilan by the former emperor, which is to prove to the new emperor and the hundred officials that my vision is correct and I have never made mistakes.

The eunuch took the box and raised his hands above his head, the new emperor looked at these things, covered his face and choked and cried, "Father, you have never looked at the wrong person, never, she is worthy of your dedication." ”

Song Zhengtian and Yang Houye, as well as Old Lady Cui, their eyes are a little moist, they are Zilan's closest relatives.

knows how much she has paid along the way, and she also understands that she handed in all her hole cards in a high-profile manner, so that their families can have more opportunities, be more trusted by the new emperor, and have a broad road to go.

Even if she left in the end, Zilan also left a way out for everyone, and she did her duty.

Song Zhengtian hurriedly stepped out, "Your Majesty, it is already a grace for my son to be so reused by the emperor, and I must not accept the title of the eldest princess, after all, she is not the bloodline of the Zhou family, and this move is not appropriate." ”

Old Man Cui also stood up for reconsideration, Yang Hou Ye and Li Xiangye also stood up, at this time it was time for them to play, this title is a bit big.

The new emperor glanced at it, "This is the will of the first emperor on his deathbed, how can I disobey it, not to mention that this is also my intention." ”

The old princess stood up, "Your Majesty, Jingyi doesn't care about this, why don't you do this, how about being promoted to the county lord?"

Jingyi has suffered a lot of unfair treatment over the years, but she still dedicates her blood to the court for the people, and she should be respected.

But the title of the eldest princess is indeed only obtained by royal people, and the minister is worried that she will be criticized again, which is a little inappropriate. ”

The old princess's words are very reasonable, whether the princess is sealed or not, the Zhou family doesn't care, but what they care about is killing.

The new emperor thought for a moment before nodding, "In that case, let's be crowned as the county lord." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

There are not many things to talk about in today's dynasty, mainly the current matter of filial piety, as well as the problems left by the previous dynasty to continue to be dealt with, and the problem of how to deal with the concubines of the former emperor, that is, the handover of the old and the new.

When Zilan returned home, her spirit was not very good, so she sat alone in the study and was quiet.

When Cui Hao and the others returned home, they rushed to the study to drag her.

"Auntie, why are you hiding here, come out with me to receive orders."

"What's the order?"

Zilan didn't know the twists and turns of being named the princess county lord.

"It's too late to say, I'll talk to you in detail later, now I'll follow me first, you've been named the county lord."

"Ahh

Zilan was confused, and was pulled by Cui Hao to the door to receive the order.

After receiving the will, the eunuchs got the reward and left happily, and Zilan was still stunned with the will.

Cui Hao dragged her back to the main courtyard again, sat down and talked about what happened after she left.

Zilan's mouth looked big, "Princess? I didn't think I could be a princess. ”

I couldn't help but touch my chin and laugh and tease.

"Pull it down, I'm sweating nervously. Thankfully, I resigned. ”

Cui Hao glanced at her.

"What are you nervous about, the emperor is also to test the emperor, but also to protect us from being liquidated in the future, he knows that we won't want it."

Zilan has been with the emperor and his ministers for many years, and they have a very tacit understanding, and they have long known everything.

Cui Hao looked at his grandfather, the old lady nodded with a smile, everyone admired this gentleman and minister very much, and they didn't need to explain superfluously, just relying on a holy decree, they understood each other's intentions, and finally understood why Zilan willingly handed over her hole cards and retired to the rivers and lakes and no longer went out of the mountain.

Without a bosom friend who understands me, I don't even need to play this piano.

Cui Yu turned his face to look at Zilan and asked, "What are you going to do next?" ”

Zilan smiled and said, "I don't have any plans, I'll go wherever Cui Hao goes, and if I can release it, I'll go with me." ”

Cui Yu smiled and nodded, "You really don't have to use your brain, it's better to rest, you've worked hard all these years." ”

As a father-in-law, he can say such a sentence, and he agrees with Zilan.

"Cui Hao will have a chance to be released soon, doesn't the girl plan to help the emperor do things?"

The old lady also wanted to know what she meant.

Zilan shook her head, "I'm tired and want to rest." The road of the family has been unimpeded, and now it is the emperor's plan to employ people.

As long as a talent is low-key, he can basically get a good opportunity, and there is no need for me to rush to the front, I still hope to see that my brothers, husbands and brothers can get up. ”
