Chapter 69: The Day of the King
A carriage with a gorgeous appearance and royal style came out of the palace Taihe Gate, and the deputy general on duty at the Taihe Gate squinted at the carriage that was getting farther and farther away, and secretly said in his heart that the three princes had entered the audience for nearly an hour, and the three princes were already more and more favored by the emperor, and they were just a little person like ants, whether they made a choice too rashly.
Xia Yiyu's carriage was driving in Xie Yufei's mansion, Xia Yiyu was sitting in the carriage, his heart was still uncontrollable ecstasy, at this moment he just wanted to see the woman he was thinking about quickly, and wanted to share his joy with her.
It was this woman who once saved his life in Yangzhou City, giving him advice step by step, helping him overcome all difficulties and obstacles to stand out, so that he could gain the support of his father and have the strength to become a party to the competition, and he had a tendency to gradually approach the direction in his mind.
He sat in the carriage and closed his eyes tightly, recalling the scenes of his acquaintance with Xie Yufei in his mind, the sweet smile on the corner of his mouth from beginning to end, never changed half a point because of the dangerous memories, when he thought that Qian Zhuang survived the crisis safely in the end, he suddenly opened his eyes, Yu Fei worked hard with him for a day and a night, and he couldn't disturb her, so he couldn't hold back his thoughts and shouted to the coachman outside, "Go home"
At noon the next day, the Great Xia Dynasty clan Zongzheng Qing King stepped out of the palace in front of the front foot, Emperor Xiyuan had poured ink on the imperial case, personally wrote the holy decree of the third son of the king, and sprinkled the entire silk brocade, Emperor Xiyuan was satisfied with the pen and handed it over to Xiao Jian to let him personally announce the decree.
The three princes knew that there would be a will come today, and they had already instructed the palace generals to prepare everything, and the three princes and the three princesses sat in the main hall and waited for two hours.
The third princess's surname is Zhao Fang's list of words Xiang, the same age as the third prince, her mother's family is just a down-and-out second-class marquis's mansion, the third princess has a brutal and spicy personality, and she has no brains when she encounters trouble, relying on her royal status to look down on others, and every time she has a banquet, she will have a quarrel with the daughter of the noblewoman, and she will always cause jokes.
In addition to her temperament, she is extremely beautiful, with a beautiful melon seed face, willow eyebrows, apricot eyes, a little cherry mouth, and a thin waist of willow and a pen tube, she is definitely a pretty beauty, otherwise she would not have been elected as the princess.
The third princess was depressed at this time because she had been sitting for two hours, and her face was impatient. She kept chattering all morning and wanted to talk to the third prince, but the third prince only told her two words from beginning to end, which made her feel even more depressed.
The third princess looked impatient, and ordered: "Qin Er, are you going to see if you are here!" ”
"Madam, the slave has just gone to see it, and it has been less than half an hour since he came back, so why don't the servants go and see it again in half an hour?" Qin Er didn't want to serve this arrogant master, what status did she have in the mansion? If you want him to be obedient and obedient, it depends on his mood, anyway, the master will not blame him for this, if it is the little ancestor that the master cares about, he will not dare to discount it at all.
This slave disobeyed her orders several times, and the third princess suddenly raised her eyebrows, and scolded sharply: "The slave bully the master!" Dog minion, you dare not listen to the words of this concubine several times, and kneel down for this concubine! ”
"Bang"
Xia Yiyu slapped the table and stood up, his handsome face was full of anger, his eyes shot straight into a fierce gaze, staring at her tightly and said coldly: "Shut up, if you don't want to wait, go back!" ”
Xia Yiyu's anger made the arrogance of the three princesses disappear in an instant, only snorted lowly, and wanted to open her mouth to speak after being silent for a long time, seeing that the third prince glared at her fiercely again, but she didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to turn her head and didn't dare to look at him, she secretly hated her husband for not giving her face, and actually reprimanded her for a slave, the husband and wife have been together for a few years, as long as they see each other and can't end up fighting, she hates him for not loving herself, hating him for being indifferent, hating him for being ruthless, love is deeply hated, love and hate are intertwined, but love is always better than hate.
Xia Yiyu scolded her, and the hall returned to a quiet atmosphere...
This woman is so disgusting and rude that the whole mansion makes her toss forever.
"Your Highness, someone from the palace has come to announce the decree!" A small guy shouted as he ran.
The palace of the three princes welcomed a group of guards and eunuchs from the palace, and the eunuchs carried twenty heavy boxes, which were all rewards given by the emperor for canonization of the king.
Xia Yiyu led everyone in the house to welcome him out, and when he arrived in front of the Xiangxiang case in the outer courtyard, Xiao Jian was already standing there, Xia Yiyu and the others hurriedly knelt down behind the Xiangzhi case, waiting for the decree to be announced.
Xiao Jian stood in front of the incense case, unfolded the Ming Huang Holy Decree in his hand, and the sharp and slightly vicissitudes of life voice resounded throughout the outer courtyard.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict says: the third prince Xia Yiyu is outstanding, good at pragmatism and conscientious for the state affairs and has made outstanding contributions, the merit is in the community, the benefit is in the future, I hereby commend and encourage, the three princes are specially awarded the first-class prince Qin Wang, awarded the gold book and gold treasure, gave the crown Jiuhan, gave the prince a mansion, 10,000 households, granted the hereditary Yongye field 10,000 acres, and added official subordinates to the palace. Three thousand guards of the guards,
Give two horses of sweat and blood, a Longquan sword, a copper gilt beast furnace, and a piece of jasper and Zhu paperweight、........."
The fine incense on the incense table was already half burned, and Xiao Jian finished reading the list of rewards and rewards of the holy decree and placed the holy decree on the incense table.
"Son, thank you, Emperor Longen!" Xia Yiyu kowtowed, got up and walked to the incense case and solemnly put the holy decree into the prepared brocade box, and the ceremony ended.
"Xiao Gong, hard work Xiao Gong personally ran this trip, Yiyu thank Xiao Gong!" Xia Yiyu's face was full of seriousness and solemnity when he received the order, and at this moment, he had changed into a smiling face and walked towards Xiao Jian.
Xiao Jian's unfathomable eyes were also filled with joy, and he smiled slightly: "The old slave congratulates the prince, the emperor's favor for the prince is incomprehensible, and he has surpassed the two princes to be crowned kings first, and the prince has been in a high position after only half a year. ”
This is the kindness released by Xiao Jian, he has a good impression of the third prince, and the third prince has reached a position where he can be handed over, that is, the eldest prince and the second prince have not received his mention now.
Xia Yiyu felt his kindness, he didn't care about being vaguely reprimanded by a eunuch, Xiao Jian reminded him that his foundation was not deep and he rose too fast, he must take a loyal and upright road, and people with outstanding talents or outstanding conduct will also go through tribulations, and he can't be too sharp in his work.
"As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you, Yiyu will be full of precepts, loyal and upright, Yiyu is grateful to the elders for their kind words, Yiyu is grateful!" Xia Yiyu gave him a deep salute, skimmed his status, and only put him in the position of an elder, and only said kind words without warnings.
Xiao Jian saw Xia Yiyu's sincerity, laughed, and said, "The prince is polite, this is the old slave's heartfelt words, thank you for not blaming the old slave for being rude!" The old slave has to go back to the palace to resume his life, so he won't bother the prince, and the old slave will retire! ”
