Text Chapter 221: Two Divine Decrees
Yi'er looked at it, but it was a sketch, and when she looked closely, it was actually a sketch of the structure of a waterwheel.
On the same day in Xiangwang's Mansion, when I saw the waterwheel made by Yang Mill, Yi'er asked Yang Mill for a sketch of the waterwheel, but later out of the Yizang Museum, Jiang You chased after him, so the sketch was put aside for a while, and now Princess Mingwei solemnly gave this as a gift to herself, which is the meaning of catching a narrow joke.
Needless to say, this sketch was of course sent by Yang Mill, the prince of Xiang.
Princess Mingwei saw that Yi'er was a little stunned when she looked at the sketch, so she smiled mischievously: "Mingwei's thing is a little cold, I don't know if my sister likes it?" ”
Yi'er smiled and asked Yinggu beside her to collect the things, and then said: "This thing is very precious, and the folk girl thanked the princess." ”
Princess Mingwei grinned and said, "Sister, if someone knows this, I'm afraid I'm going to be happy for a while." As he spoke, the person came over again and said softly, "This sketch, the fifth brother just asked me to send it by the way, the real gift of the fifth brother is still behind, and my sister is waiting." ”
Yi'er was stunned again, and looked at Mingwei with some suspicion.
At this time, I saw that the porter Xiao Qi ran all the way into Shuofeng Garden, fell to his knees with a plop, and said a little breathlessly: "Return, go back to the master, Gonggong Liu, Gonggong Liu has entered the house with the holy decree!" ”
Divine decree?
Shuofengyuan's ladies and ladies were all dumbfounded, today is just the eldest princess who set up a family banquet and accepted a goddaughter, this princess Mingwei is here, why is it that even the holy decree is here now?
It stands to reason that although the eldest princess takes in her granddaughter, although it is not a trivial matter, there is no need for the emperor to ask in person, unless, the emperor has other ideas on this matter?
The eldest princess of Yunping also changed color slightly, the last time she said that she wanted to accept Yi'er, the goddaughter, Emperor Qiming sent someone over to pass on a message, she thought about it again and again, and then stopped thinking about it. This time, Yi'er was out of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion and was lonely, so she resolutely withstood the pressure and was determined to accept this godgranddaughter. According to her assumption, even if Emperor Qiming disagrees, she still has to give the face of the emperor's aunt, and she has to give it to her, and she has a little Jiujiu in her heart, and she will not seriously make trouble on the stage, which will make everyone unhappy!
But now, this sudden holy decree made Princess Yunping feel faintly uneasy in her heart. In the final analysis, who can predict and touch the thoughts of the Son of Heaven?
The county lord of Huayang is also a little confused, Yi'er came out of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, whether she wants to or not, she has a notoriety suspicion of greedy pleasure and wealth, pretending to be the daughter of the Hou Mansion, this matter is known all over the city, how can the emperor be kept in the dark? What is the emperor's impression of Yi'er, and what is his attitude towards the eldest princess's acceptance of her granddaughter, speaking of which, the county lord of Huayang really doesn't know, she came over today, and it was Jiang You's begging for her, only let her how to do it, she thought to herself that her son is a dead man, and she finally fell in love with such a woman, if she doesn't go along with his wishes, I'm afraid that the bastard boy will really come to the future without marrying and accepting, so how can she live? Only then did he come to the princess's mansion and re-mention his marriage to Yi'er.
But the emperor's decree came suddenly, what if the emperor felt that this woman was not virtuous and unworthy of being the goddaughter of the eldest princess? Then when she mentioned this marriage, wouldn't it become a big laughing stock among the ladies of the Jingzhong family?
Yi'er was even more apprehensive in her heart, but Princess Mingwei glanced at her a few times and smiled evilly, which made her heart settle a little.
It's just that in any case, when the holy decree has arrived, it cannot fail to accept it.
What shocked everyone even more was that the eunuch father-in-law who came to announce the decree turned out to be the eunuch Liu Dao'an, the eunuch Liu Dao'an, and the eunuch Liu Gonggong.
When the porter of the princess's mansion came in and returned to the house, he only said that Gonggong Liu had entered the mansion with the holy decree, and everyone didn't think deeply about which Gonggong Liu was, but now when they saw it, they were taken aback.
Who is this Liu Dao'an? It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a first-class prince like Jiang Pei, the Marquis of Weiqin, Wei Daohuai, the Marquis of Weiqin, and the real power does not dare to offend this eunuch!
And for such a trivial matter as an ordinary proclamation, where can a big eunuch like Liu Dao'an personally run this trip? Like Jiang You's birthday ceremony last time, the emperor and the queen's mother rewarded things down, Liu Dao'an's holy decree announced by the palace, the world is envious and jealous of the holy family of the Ningguo Mansion, on the one hand, it naturally refers to the property rewarded by the emperor and queen, but on the other hand, the holy decree was read by Liu Dao'an himself, if it wasn't for the holy family, how could the emperor let Liu Dao'an come over the house to announce this will?
And today, the eldest princess's mansion came to announce the decree again, and it was Liu Dao'an!
The eldest princess led everyone to greet her, Liu Dao'an salivated with a smiling face, bowed to the eldest princess from afar, and after seeing each other, Liu Dao'an put his eyes on Yi'er's body, and asked with a smile: "This must be the newly adopted godgranddaughter of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Miss Wu, right?" ”
Yi'er was blessed and said, "The little girl has seen her father-in-law." ”
Liu Dao'an hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Miss is very polite, the old slave can't afford such a big gift as Miss." After a pause, he added, "If the young lady is ready, then the old slave will begin to pronounce the decree!" ”
Yi'er was stunned for a moment, in fact, everyone present was stunned, and the eldest princess of Yunping said: "What does Gonggong Liu mean by this, the holy decree ......?"
Liu Dao'an patted his forehead with a smile and said, "Eldest princess, forgive me, you see that the old slave has done this, and I haven't explained it clearly to your old man first." The old slave came over today, and he did receive the emperor's mission and came to announce the decree, but there are two copies of this holy decree, one is for Miss Wu, and the other is for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and Miss Wu's ancestors and grandchildren. ”
The eldest princess of Yunping was confused by Liu Dao'an.
Liu Dao'an had already received a holy decree from the little eunuch who was entourage, and held it high.
The eldest princess of Yunping took the lead, and everyone knelt down to listen to the order.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: I have heard that the Wu family has a woman who is appropriate, smart and agile, not more polite, soft and gentle, elegant and pleasant, meritorious but not self-controlled, aggrieved but not wronged, Yonghe pure, gentle and good-natured, very happy, for the sake of Jiayi, I am specially given the title of Wanming County Lord, enjoy the county lord's house, reward the county lord's mansion, and give Quzhou Mansion 800 acres of Huangzhuang as a food town, Qin this!"
Liu Dao'an's yin and yang accent finished reciting the holy decree, Yi'er was still a little dazed, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Liu Dao'an smiled and said, "Lord Wanming, thank you." ”
Yi'er woke up at this time, kowtowed three times in a row, and said, "The people's daughter Xie Zhu Longen, long live, long live, long live." ”
After receiving the holy decree from Liu Dao'an's hand, Liu Dao'an said again: "The county lord will have to change his name in the future, and he will have to be called a title, and he can no longer call himself a people's daughter." ”
Yi'er bowed her head slightly and said, "Wan Ming Xie Gonggong mentioned it." ”
Liu Dao'an waved his hand and said: "The county lord is tormenting the old slave, how dare you be the county lord?" ”
I have to say that this holy decree almost stunned everyone, and when I came back to my senses, I looked at Yi'er's gaze again, and it was a little meaningful.
The eldest princess of Yunping was overjoyed, and said: "Father-in-law Liu braved the scorching sun and ran this trip in person, it was really hard, please go to the front hall for tea." ”
Liu Dao'an smiled and said: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, don't worry, didn't the old slave say at the beginning, there are two holy decrees, only one was announced, and the other was not announced." ”
The eldest princess of Yunping sighed and said, "If this is the case, then there will be Father-in-law Lao." ”
Liu Dao'an took another holy decree from the hands of the little eunuch, held it high above the top, and waited for everyone to kneel again, then unfolded the holy decree and read: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: There is the lord of Wanming, skillful and generous, gentle and generous, outstanding in appearance, in the boudoir, I bow and hear it very pleasantly, for the beauty of the beauty, the lord of Wanming is allowed to be matched with the general of Huwei, the prince of Ningguo is the concubine, and the marriage is completed on a good day, Qin this!" ”
If the crowd had not yet recovered from the shock brought by the first decree, then as soon as the second decree came out, everyone had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
It turned out that the emperor gave the title of the county lord in order to elevate her status, so that Yi'er could be worthy of the lintel of the Ningguo Mansion and clear the obstacles for her to marry into the Ningguo Mansion!
It's just that if you think about it further, why did the emperor give marriage? Why do you have to do everything you need to give this marriage? The reason behind this is a bit unbelievable and unbelievable!
In fact, it is not difficult to guess the reason for this, because this marriage, no matter from which point of view, has no benefit to the Ningguo Mansion, and in terms of the current saints of the Ningguo Mansion, such a marriage without benefits, if it were not for the Ningguo Mansion to go to the invitation, it would be impossible for the Holy Lord to issue a decree for marriage today! In other words, in other words, this marriage was taken by the Duke of Ningguo to ask the emperor to come down!
Why did the Duke of Ning insist on marrying such a woman with no support and no background? There can only be one answer, that is, the prince of Ningguo really fell in love with this newly baked Wanming county lord who has changed his name to Wu Yi and has just been given by the emperor.
After Liu Dao'an read out the holy decree, people stepped forward to congratulate him, but they were inevitably jealous and envious in their hearts, and secretly said, this woman is really lucky!
Naturally, there are also a few people who are sober and inevitably have doubts in their hearts, if the emperor really just wants to elevate Yi'er's identity and make this marriage decree justifiable, then it is enough to seal a false name, why should she enjoy the county lord's house, give the county lord's mansion, and even reward 800 acres of imperial village as her county main food?
This may be the crux of the matter, but very few people have noticed this, and even those who have thought of it can't think of a reason for it for a while.
However, when these two holy decrees spread throughout the capital, someone finally found the clue, because the title of the lord of Wanming was sealed by the emperor as early as three years ago, and that time was because a woman sacrificed her life to save the life of His Royal Highness King Xiang at the mouth of the gorge, and the emperor thanked the woman for her loyalty, so he posthumously crowned the lord of Wanming.
With the same title, how could the emperor put himself on his own and divide it to two different people? Therefore, this matter is gradually becoming clear, I am afraid that Wu Yi now and Jiang Yi, who saved His Royal Highness King Xiang back then, can't be said, they are the same person!
