Chapter 435: Divine Decree Knighthood

Feng Sibei opened his mouth.

"I don't know if the county lord has a ...... now"

"Shire, Shire!"

At the critical moment, he was interrupted.

Feng Sibei frowned, although he had the heart to continue, Shangguan Li had already turned his head and looked at Zhang Lei who rushed in.

"Panicked, what's wrong?"

"Palace, the palace has passed the holy decree!"

Shangguan Li didn't react yet, Feng Sibei was shocked, and now he completely lost his mind to ask Shangguan Li's mind now.

"Got it, come on."

She nodded, and turned her head to Feng Sibei.

"Your Highness......"

"The holy decree is important, this king should go out with the county lord."

Shangguan Li did not refuse.

The entrance to the quiet hall.

Shangguan Li and Feng Sibei knelt side by side, and the eunuch said with a sharp voice.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor summoned and said: The current lord of Shaoyang, with intelligent qualifications, Ke Min and benevolence, has won my heart. Special title of the third grade, enjoy the princess ceremony, admire this. ”

What is this? Sweetened?

Not only was Shangguan Li himself a little confused, but Feng Sibei was even more shocked.

Enjoying the etiquette of a princess as the county lord is already an honor, and what is even more shocking is the three-rank title.

Since ancient times, women have not inherited titles. Even if you are a princess, you can have the privilege of a fief at most, even if it is a fief, so far, only Changle, who is the most favored by her father, has a fief in Qingzhou.

With the title of knighthood, theoretically speaking, Shangguan Li can now stand in the court and participate in court politics.

This is something that has never happened in the thousand years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

How is this possible?

He was even beginning to wonder if he had misheard, or if the eunuch who was preparing the decree had made a mistake.

"Hehe, congratulations to the county lord, congratulations to the county lord, take the order quickly."

The little eunuch who announced the decree didn't seem to know the weight of this holy decree, and handed the decree to Shangguan Li with a smile on his face.

Although she was shocked, it was only a matter of a moment, and when she heard this, she lowered her head and took the holy decree with both hands.

"Shaoyang, thank you Your Majesty Longen."

The little eunuch was followed by a column of palace maids, each of whom had a delicately decorated wooden box in his hand, and at a glance he knew that the contents were definitely not ordinary.

"This is all rewarded by His Majesty to the county lord."

The little eunuch commanded the palace ladies to send things into the palace.

Shangguan Li watched these people busy with cold eyes, and after a while, after the things were moved, the little eunuch also said goodbye and left, of course, when he left, Shangguan Li stuffed a bag full of silver.

After the people in the palace left, Feng Sibei didn't stay long, and hurriedly said a few words of congratulations and left.

He wanted to hurry up and find out what was going on in the palace, why his father would suddenly descend such a dragon.

"Your Highness, go slowly."

Shangguan Limu sent Feng Sibei's carriage away, then returned to the quiet hall, closed the door, and took a closer look at the holy decree.

There really is no problem.

So which one is the emperor playing?

It's just because the matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion has spread, and you want to give her a little compensation, so as to earn a good name in the world?

But even people like her, who are not very familiar with the Great Zhou ritual system, can see that there is something wrong with the will of "sealing the title of Sanpin".

Shangguan Li frowned, put away the holy decree, and decided to ignore it for the time being.

Of course, the emperor's mind is important, but the top priority is to complete her plan.

The door of the Jing Hall closed slowly, but what Shangguan Li didn't expect was that the storm that this holy purpose set off overnight was faintly bigger than Shangguan Xun's matter.

For this matter, the people of the Ministry of Rites hit the pillars and killed two in the court hall, and the follow-up opposition was even more wave after wave.

Above the court, the people who originally had some sympathy for Shangguan Li because of Shangguan Xun's incident all changed their direction at this moment and began to criticize her one after another.

Although everyone knew that it was the emperor who made the decision on this matter, the emperor was the Son of Heaven, and no one dared to question it, so he had to turn the spearhead at Shangguan Li.

But no matter how the officials admonished and how the people in the Ministry of Rites protested desperately, the emperor seemed to be determined to put this honor on Shangguan Li's head, and turned a blind eye to all opposing voices.

And Shangguan Li, who was at the center of the storm, had experienced the initial surprise, but in recent days, he has become more and more secluded.

I grow vegetables in my yard, water flowers, read books most of the time, read quite slowly, and my life is very leisurely.

Since this decree was issued, Feng Sibei ran to her two times in three days, at first Shangguan Li saw him, but then he was annoyed, so he simply called himself sick and closed the door of Jingtang directly, no one wanted to come in.

The weather was still sunny that day, Shangguan Li got up early as usual, came to the yard after breakfast, and saw that Zhang Lei had already set up the book she hadn't finished reading yesterday and the snacks and pastries used to fill her stomach in the shade of the tree in advance.

Shangguan Li was a little hungry and hungry.

"County, county lord, you are up, how about it, do you want to take a walk first or ......"

"No, I'm going out today."

"Oh, go out, good...... What?! ”

Zhang Lei looked up in shock.

In the past few days, Shangguan Limen has not stepped out of the gate, and the world thinks that she is trying to avoid the disputes caused by her in the court.

To be honest, Zhang Lei also thinks so.

But he didn't think it was a bad thing not to get involved in the troubles of the imperial court, on the contrary, he felt that it was safer for his own county lord.

What's the use of getting that high status? It's not necessarily more comfortable than before.

But now Shangguan Li is suddenly going to leave the house, of course, he was taken aback.

"What, can I still hide in the quiet hall for the rest of my life?"

Shangguan Li smiled helplessly.

"No, it's not, but it's ...... out there."

"I know, a lot of eyes are on me."

Shangguan Li said casually.

"It's okay, I didn't do anything bad, and I just went into the palace to find the emperor this time."

She said so, Zhang Lei naturally stopped stopping and hurriedly ran to prepare the carriage.

After a few moments, the carriage departed from the quiet hall and slowly headed in the direction of the palace.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the palace, I met Feng Sibei.

"My Royal Highness wants to invite the county lord to get off the sedan chair and see him."

Shangguan Li didn't have any surprised look on his face, like others, Feng Sibei must have kept his eyes near the Jingtang, and after learning that she was going out, he guessed that she was going to enter the palace, and came directly to the palace gate to wait for her, and there was time to wait.

She lifted the curtain of the carriage and went down.

Feng Sibei still looked very gentle, and when he saw her, he smiled first.

"Is the county lord's health well?"

This was the excuse she had made for avoiding it before, and Shangguan Li nodded without blushing or heartbeat.

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, it is precisely because there is no obstacle that I dare to enter the palace to see the emperor."
