Chapter 303: It turned out to be the Empress Dowager's decree!
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Yao Wanying hurriedly stuffed the small bamboo tube and paper roll into her cuffs and came to open the door.
When I opened the door, it turned out to be a small ingot, and I was taken aback, "Little ingot!! ”
"What's wrong, Wanying?" Luo Qiqi saw her surprised appearance and thought that he had scared her by suddenly knocking on the door.
Yao Wanying realized her gaffe and quickly recovered her positive color, "It's not ...... Nothing, how did you get here? ”
"Oh, I'm going to accompany the emperor out of the palace today, and on the way back, I passed by Xiangruizhai, and by the way, I brought some pastries for you and Xiao Fangzi. Taste it! The chestnut crisp of the auspicious cake is delicious! ”
Luo Qiqi walked in, put the pastry on the table, opened the lid of the box, and invited Yao Wanying to taste it.
Yao Wanying saw that Xiao Yuanbao carefully brought her pastries and brought them to her, and she felt more and more guilty.
In order to hide the panic in her heart, she poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yuanbao, "Little Yuanbao, drink a glass of water!" ”
"Okay, thank you, I'm thirsty!"
Luo Qiqi has always regarded Yao Wanying as a good friend, and he didn't notice her change at this time, and continued, "Wanying, do you know who I saw when I left the palace today? ”
"Who?"
"The Empress Dowager!" Luo Qiqi recalled to himself, "Oh, I really didn't expect that the Empress Dowager was so noble that she was willing to return to the mountains and forests, eat fasting and chant Buddha, what did she think in her heart?" ”
"yes, what does she think?"
Yao Wanying looked at the little ingot, and her mood became more and more complicated.
Xiao Yuanbao trusts her so much, says everything to her, and treats her so well, how can she bear to attack him?
"I think the Empress Dowager is dedicated to goodness, and she is praying for the blessings of Takizuki Sheji and the emperor. I believe that as long as a person has good thoughts in his heart, he will definitely influence God. If you help the abuse, it will definitely not end well in the end! ”
Yao Wanying: "......"
Luo Qiqi was just expressing her own personal opinions, but Yao Wanying felt that those words seemed to be said to her.
She wondered if what she was doing now was right.
Looking at the Takiyue Kingdom under the wise leadership of the emperor, the common people live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy is prosperous, isn't this the development of conforming to the principles of heaven?
If it is destroyed, what is it called the way of heaven?
But...... She is now under the control of others, and she can't obey the orders of the Lord, what should she do?
After chatting, Luo Qiqi was about to go back, and when Yao Wanying sent him out, she asked, "Little Yuanbao, can you take me with you next time you leave the palace one day?" I also want to go out of the palace to buy some things. ”
"Okay, if you leave the palace tomorrow, I'll call you!"
Luo Qiqi left Xiulan Garden, and Yao Wanying watched her back until she disappeared.
I'm sorry little ingots, please forgive me for being involuntarily!
……
In the imperial study, Nangong Moyan finished handling all the government affairs of the day, and Gonggong Xuan came in with the stewed bird's nest, put it in front of him, and said, "Your Majesty, the bird's nest is ready." ”
Nangong Moyan's body is getting healthier day by day, and he doesn't need to take tonic anymore, looking at the stewed bird's nest, he thought of the little ingot, and instructed, "In the future, my bird's nest will be left for the little ingots to eat, and I don't need to take tonic anymore!" ”
"The old slave remembers."
In fact, Gonggong Xuan thought to himself, the emperor really favors the little ingots! Think about him for everything!
"By the way, here is a decree from the Empress Dowager, whether it is to dissolve the marriage contract between me and Prime Minister Luo, or you should go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to read it out for me in person!"
"Whoa!"
Duke Xuan received the decree of the Empress Dowager and was about to withdraw from the imperial study, but was stopped by Nangong Moyan, "Wait! ”
"Your Majesty, what else do you have to order?"
Nangong Mo Yan thought about it and said, "That's it! You only talk about this matter alone and listen to Luo Cheng, don't publicize it, and Luo Lingshuang will not have a bad reputation if he hires someone else in the future. ”
"The old slave obeys."
Nangong Moyan is not a selfish man after all, he will also consider others.
His imperial grandmother was right, after all, it was only a verbal marriage contract at that time, and if the divorce is known all over the city now, it will definitely have a very bad impact on the Luo family and Luo Lingshuang at that time, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Now he could only do as much as he could, and minimize the damage.
When Gonggong Xuan got the decree, he left the palace as soon as possible and came to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After being passed on, Prime Minister Luo Jianzong brought his son Luo Yunxiao and the family in the house to greet him, and they thought that when Gonggong Xuan came to the door, there must be a holy decree to be read.
But when I saw Gonggong Xuan, I didn't see him holding the holy decree in his hand.
"Grandpa Xuan, what kind of wind blew you here?" Luo Jianzong asked with some apprehension.
"Prime Minister Luo, the old slave has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace!"
"But does the emperor have any instructions?"
"That's right, but the old slave wants to take a step to speak."
Hearing this, Luo Jianzong probably had seven or eight guesses in his heart, could it be related to marriage?
Luo Jianzong invited Gonggong Xuan into the study to talk alone, and Gonggong Xuan took out the decree of the Empress Dowager, "Prime Minister Luo, kneel down to receive the decree of the Empress Dowager~"
It turned out to be the Empress Dowager's decree!
Luo Jianzong knelt down, Xuangong announced the contents, and then handed over the decree to Luo Jianzong.
"Prime Minister Luo, the matter has come to this, the emperor is still thinking about you and the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't let the old slave publicize this matter, and let the old slave talk to you in private. It can be seen that the emperor is kind-hearted and can't bear to be hurt! ”
Luo Jianzong understood, knelt down and thanked, "The old minister thanks the emperor for his grace, please go back and tell the emperor, saying that my Luo family is grateful to the emperor for his care, and the old minister will not be affected by this matter, and the old minister and the entire Luo family are willing to continue to serve the emperor and Takiyue." ”
Gonggong Xuan helped Luo Jianzong up and said, "Prime Minister Luo, please hurry up, the old slave must bring your words, the old slave has other things to do, so retire first." ”
"Okay, the old man sent Xuan's father-in-law."
In this way, Xuan's father-in-law conveyed in time that the marriage of Nangong Moyan and Luo Lingshuang was a normal and successful divorce.
After Father-in-law Xuan left, Luo Yunxiao asked his father, "Father, what did Father-in-law Xuan say to you?" Did the emperor issue some secret order? ”
"It's not!"
Luo Jianzong didn't hide it from his son, and told him truthfully, "It's about your sister, from today on, the marriage contract between the emperor and your sister Shuang'er will be officially dissolved." ”
"Huh?"
Luo Yunxiao knew as soon as he heard that it must be his foolish sister who hadn't told the emperor her true identity until now, so the emperor proposed to dissolve the marriage contract without knowing it.
How can this be?
Originally, if his sister married the emperor, then he would have one more brother-in-law of the emperor, how angry is it?
Now that it's been lifted, how wronged is his sister? How much did their Luo family lose?
If the matter spreads, won't outsiders all laugh at his sister for being abandoned by the emperor?
In the future, if you are an official in the court, I am afraid that you will not even be able to raise your head!
Thinking of this, Luo Yunxiao felt that even if he didn't want to be the emperor's brother-in-law, he had to do something for his own sister-in-law, right?
