Chapter 22: Under the Divine Decree

Shen Ke was talking to Ning Chaoge about wine, this Fenjiu had a lot of stamina, both of them drank a lot, Ning Chaoge was very happy to have his wishes come true today, and he drank a few more glasses without restraint, and as soon as the warm breeze in the lobby blew, he was a little lazy and drunk.

Listening to the announcement that the eunuch in the palace was coming, Ning Chaoge stood up with a smile and said that he was going to leave.

"Second Highness, this holy decree is also with you, you can also listen to it!" Shen Ke didn't mean to send the guest away, anyway, this holy decree was to give Ning Chaoge and Du Yiyi a marriage, and it didn't hurt Ning Chaoge to listen to it.

"That's good, that's good, Your Highness will listen to it!" Ning Chaoge, who was still a little worried that it would change later, was happy in his heart, and he drank another cup.

"Come, remove the table, and you all go down. Go and call the lady out, and tell her to come out with a bag of silver. "Shen Ke's alcohol consumption has been trained in the army, and Ning Chaoge has begun to get drunk, but he is still sober.

The singer and dancer was ordered to retreat, and the subordinates immediately removed the wine table, and the lobby, which was still a light singing and dancing, was quiet all of a sudden.

Shen Ke cautiously tidied up his clothes, Lu Xiangxue heard that it was a holy decree from the palace, and immediately took a bulging money bag out of the house to the main hall, and before he could go out, he heard a shrill and high-pitched holy decree from the gate.

Shu Ruhai saw the content of the holy decree on the side when the emperor wrote the holy decree, and he also knew about the conversation between the emperor and Shen Ke before, and the emperor suddenly changed his mind and decided that Ning Chaoge didn't know, and as soon as he entered the lobby, he saw Ning Chaoge's happy appearance, and also smelled the strong and fragrant aroma of wine on this body, for a while, his heart twitched suddenly.

Ning Chaoge is now at Shen Ke and has drunk wine, which means that the two of them get along well, that is to say, the matter of the emperor's marriage has already passed the anger, at this time, if he reads this holy decree in front of Ning Chaoge, Ning Chaoge will lose face, but I am afraid that it will attract the resentment of His Royal Highness.

In the end, it was the old man who had followed the emperor for many years, and he was the most flexible, he saluted Ning Chaoge, and walked in front of Shen Ke with a happy face: General Shen, great joy! ”

"Father-in-law, I don't know what the emperor has and ordered?" Shen Ke replied.

"General Shen, the emperor decreed that he would marry Ling Mei, such an honor, but it is unparalleled in the world!" Saying that, Shu Ruhai handed over the holy decree in his hand to Shen Ke: "General Shen is the emperor's minister, the emperor only gave General Shen a marriage before, and now he is giving a marriage to Ling Mei, our family will not read this decree, General Shen himself will read it slowly!" There is still something in the palace, so our family will retire first! ”

Shen Ke hurriedly gave the maid beside Lu Xiangxue a look, the maid beside Lu Xiangxue understood, took the money bag, and walked in front of Shu Ruhai, Lu Xiangxue said with a smile: "Father-in-law Shu is tired of running around, a little careful, and I hope to smile." ”

Shu Ruhai glanced at Ning Chaoge secretly, shook his head like a rattle, pushed away the money bag, turned to Ning Chaoge and said, "Second Highness, the queen mother asked you to enter the palace now, saying that the fourth highness is sick." ”

Ning Zhiyuan is sick? What does this have to do with him? The slightly drunk Ning Chaoge's mind lost the twists and turns when he was sober, and it was simple to think that it was the queen mother who had an explanation with him. But if you are drunk, it is not appropriate to enter the palace.

He refused: "His Royal Highness will go later, go later, and the father-in-law will go back first!" ”

Shu Ruhai looked at Ning Chaoge's smile, sighed in his heart, but still insisted on saying: "The queen mother looks very anxious, Her Royal Highness is delayed, I'm afraid it's ............."

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you." Ning Chaoge waved his hand impatiently and strode to the front of the sea of books.

"Then General Shen, our family will retire first." Shu Ruhai breathed a sigh of relief, arched his hand towards Shen Ke Lu Xiangxue, and followed Ning Chaoge.

Shen Ke glanced at the bulging money bag in the hands of Ning Chaoge and the maidservant who had left, and unfolded the holy decree suspiciously, but just a glance, he frowned, and the more he looked, the more the two thick eyebrows squeezed and wrinkled into a mountain.

"Husband, is there something wrong?" Lu Xiangxue saw Shen Ke's strange appearance, but she didn't know why.

"See for yourself!" At this time, Shen Ke understood why Shu Ruhai was urging Ning Chaoge to leave, just to let him avoid this embarrassment! Didn't the emperor already reveal the information to himself, could he have realized it wrong? But looking at Ning Chaoge's expression, there will be no fakes, by the way, Shu Ruhai just said that Ning Zhiyuan fell ill in the palace, could it be that the reason for this is still in him?

Himself, in the end, underestimated him, no wonder he has not moved, it turns out that he is waiting here!

"It's ............ This ............" Lu Xiangxue frowned, but her lips trembled in surprise and panic.

The two masters all looked like this, and the people around them were also one by one, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what is written on this holy decree.

"What?" In the courtyard, Du Yiyi, who was practicing walking hard, was startled by Lu Xiangxue's words and stopped.

"The holy decree is here, you see, there will be no mistake in changing the jade seal." Lu Xiangxue was also very surprised, things that had already been settled, but suddenly gave birth to such a change, she is a woman, she can't guess the abacus in the heart of the Son of Heaven, but she is Du Yiyi's sister-in-law, the relationship between the two has eased a little in the past few days, what is Ning Zhiyuan's situation, she will not know? Du Yiyi married him, if he dies in the future, what will Du Yiyi do?

"My sister-in-law said so, so there will be no mistake, why did the emperor suddenly change his decision?" Du Yiyi shook his head and did not go to receive the holy decree.

"I don't know, your brother said that it should be the reason for the Fourth Highness!" Lu Xiangxue asked Ling'er to put away the holy decree, walked to Du Yiyi's side, stretched out her hand to support her, and let her walk to the stone table and sit down. "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, the holy decree has been issued, there can be no change in this matter, although the fourth highness has that disease, but it is still good to treat people, but in the future, where can it compare to the second highness, Yiyi, I have wronged you!"

How many women want to marry the prince, in Lu Xiangxue's opinion, marrying Ning Zhiyuan is wronged Du Yiyi, after all, it was Ning Chaoge who has hope to win the heir in the future.

Doctor Song has already removed the cork boards on Du Yiyi's legs, Du Yiyi has insisted on practicing these days, walking by herself is no longer a problem, she never thought of marrying Ning Chaoge, and now changing to Ning Zhiyuan does not have much spiritual impact on her, she must make herself better, leave this place, what the emperor's grace is, what the heavenly dragon, she doesn't care.

Since that day she went to the palace and saw the world outside the Shen Mansion, the idea of wanting to leave in her heart was even stronger, Lu Xiangxue only wanted her to leave, and Du Yiyi wanted her to leave, marrying someone was just one of the ways to leave.

Lu Xiangxue saw her bow her head and was silent, knowing that she was uncomfortable, and was about to comfort her again, but Du Yiyi got up and said while walking to the house: "I'm tired, sister-in-law go back first." ”

Lu Xiangxue squeezed her eyes with Mother Xu in the courtyard, Mother Xu nodded and entered the house, Lu Xiangxue didn't stay any longer and went back to her courtyard.

The style of the empty palace is extraordinary, and as soon as it is blown by this strong wind, most of the wine will be relieved, and when Ning Chaoge walked to the queen's bedroom, the person had already sobered up.

The queen was angry with the emperor just now, and her heart was already unhappy, as soon as she smelled the smell of wine on Ning Chaoge's body, she thought of Ning Chaoge and Shen Ke pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and her heart was even more angry.

"What kind of wine do you drink in broad daylight, and you don't know how to explain the smell of alcohol, so you run to the palace, if you bump into your father, you can't be scolded by him."

Ning Chaoge and Shu Ruhai parted ways after entering the palace, and the queen's scolding made him puzzled and aggrieved: "Didn't you ask the queen mother to let my father-in-law bring me back and let me enter the palace to see you?" ”

"Books like a sea?" The queen glanced at her son with a pout, and took a long breath: "Do you know what Shu Ruhai went to Shen Ke for?" ”

"It's to proclaim the decree." Ning Chaoge replied carefully, for fear of angering the queen.

"Yes, it's a proclamation." The queen shook her head violently, and the wings of the phoenix that landed on the top of her head fluttered, and she sneered: "It's for Shen Ke's sister to marry, but the man who gave the marriage is not you, it's Ning Zhiyuan!" ”

"What?" Ning Chaoge took two steps back in shock, his face flushed purple.

"Otherwise, how could Shu Ruhai call you back by falsely spreading the will of the palace, and you also went to the Shen Mansion to push the cup with Shen Ke and drank so drunk, do you know that when you were drinking and having fun with Shen Ke, the fourth child entered the palace and begged your father to give him a decree, the fourth child was deliberate, the palace just persuaded the emperor to go up and make an order, the emperor just stepped into Ningyuan Palace with his front foot, he went with his back foot, and vomited blood and became ill on the main hall, how much love your father has for him, seeing him like this, how can he not be soft-hearted, The fourth child usually doesn't say anything, but he didn't expect him to have such a scheming. The queen's chest and abdomen rose and fell violently, and the joints of the hands holding the armrests of the chair were white, obviously angry.

"I have long known that the fourth child has bad intentions and takes every precaution, but I didn't expect to let him take advantage of the loophole, queen mother, how can I be good now?" The queen's words made Ning Chaoge very ashamed and angry, thinking about his complacent situation in the Shen Mansion just now, the more he felt that Ning Zhiyuan's slap was really hateful and unforgivable.

"How is it good, how is it good, if your people see the fourth child, will this happen? He sang and played a double reed with Chang Liu, and your father was nervous like this, what are you still watching here, don't you go to the people in the imperial dining room to cook the sobering soup, wait for you to go with the palace to see your father and the fourth, now the holy decree has been issued, there is no room for turnaround, and you can only let your father see your grievances and give you more benefits. ”

A few servant girls standing on the side were so frightened by the queen's drink that they didn't dare to come out, but Aunt Liu assigned a maid to go to the imperial dining room, and asked a maidservant to prepare a few incense burners to smoke the smell of wine on Ning Chaoge's body.
