Chapter 259: Yongle County Lord
At this time, Qin Yuyuan looked at Xia Yihai's extremely ugly expression, and there seemed to be a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but soon she noticed a different kind of gaze falling on her, and immediately restrained her expression to meet Xia Qianwei's gaze.
The two looked at each other, as if they collided with a cold flower with an undercurrent surging in the air.
Xia Yihai looked at the beautifully dressed girl with great complexity, trying to restrain his cranky thoughts, and at this moment, a huge team came slowly not far away.
"Yo, is it so lively today?" I saw that the father-in-law Qian, who was the leader, looked at the nobles kneeling all over the ground in surprise, and their scarred appearance was really funny.
Old Madam Xia had already arrived, and she almost fainted when she saw the scene in front of her, but fortunately, she barely supported it with the help of Mama Lei beside her.
Father-in-law Qian is a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, and he never leaves the palace easily on weekdays, he greeted him with a smile and respectfully came forward to salute Mu Yuan and Mu Zhao, "See His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Sixth, the miscellaneous family is on the order of the Queen Mother today, and came to congratulate Miss Xia San." ”
Qin Yuyuan and Wen's expressions couldn't help but be stunned, only to see Father-in-law Qian take out a scroll of holy decrees, and everyone's faces immediately changed and they all knelt down.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, this summer's three daughters show their wisdom, have both ability and political integrity, and their medical skills are excellent and win the emperor's heart, and they are specially named the lord of Yongle County......"
This sharp and loud voice clearly came into everyone's ears, and the atmosphere around them changed suddenly, and Qin Yuyuan raised her head in disbelief, her eyes full of shock.
Show off wisdom and have both ability and integrity? Are you talking about that cheap girl?
She finally came back to her senses, and couldn't help but stare viciously in Xia Qianwei's direction, that look almost wanted to cut a few cuts on the other party's face!
Even Mrs. Xia had a feeling of being in a dream, and she didn't hear what Father-in-law Qian said behind her clearly, until the meaningful laughter came, "Old Mrs. Xia, congratulations, the county lord of Yongle has won the heart of the Queen Mother, hurry up and accept the order." ”
Everyone in the Xia family finally reacted a little, and the old lady immediately restrained her expression and respectfully accepted the holy decree, but she felt that her hands were unprecedentedly stiff.
It should be a great joy, but why is there an inexplicable fear in her heart that quietly spreads.
"Courtier, Xia Qianwei, thank the Holy Grace. ”
Xia Qianwei's lily-of-the-valley voice quickly recalled Mrs. Xia's thoughts, and Father-in-law Qian's eyes lit up, and he looked at the pampered girl with a little appreciation.
He clearly saw the expressions of everyone in the Xia family in his eyes, only this Miss Xia San, who was young, but her clear eyes precipitated the stability and calmness that a little girl like her should have, and this bearing was natural, not inferior to any of the ladies at all.
It's obviously something that everyone can't believe, but she's the only one who seems to have this honor that should belong to her, frank and confident, restrained but unassuming.
The family of three products can teach such a daughter, no wonder the queen mother can like it so much, and made an exception to seal her as a county lord.
"Yongle County Lord, please hurry up, I don't know if the miscellaneous family can have this honor, begging for a cup of tea and drinking in your mansion, and be happy?"
Many people in the crowd secretly speculated about the attitude of this father-in-law Qian, to know how many people secretly wanted to flatter and please him, but the most senior duke in the palace never bought anyone's account, and now he took the initiative to show favor to the Xia family, the queen mother...... What does that mean exactly?
"It's the courtiers who are confused, it's too rude, Father-in-law Qian is still invited to take a seat!" The old lady was the first to react and quickly smiled, and Father-in-law Qian seemed to think of something and gestured to the palace maid behind him.
"I almost forgot that there is a special congratulatory gift here, which is also for the county lord of Yongle. ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone saw the palace maid open one of the red wooden boxes behind her, and then a coral tree glowing cinnabar red appeared in front of them, which seemed to be shining with a little starlight in the sun.
"This is a rare blood coral in the East China Sea in a hundred years, and it is the first time that the miscellaneous family has seen it. ”
Father-in-law Qian said, looking in the direction of Xia Qianwei meaningfully, but the girl did not have the amazing expressions of everyone around her, but showed a little thought.
Xia Qianwei's heart moved, she had only read the record in the book, it was rumored that blood coral was the treasure of Zhenhai in the East China Sea, red when it was water, light when it was light, it turned into light powder, and it would form a layer of frost in summer.
And this treasure also has a beautiful and moving story, it is said that the princess of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea fell in love with a mortal, but the immortals are different, the princess fell a drop of blood and tears after suffering the curse, and then turned into blood coral.
Xia Qianwei only felt a little puzzled, why did the Queen Mother give her such a treasure that symbolizes her unswerving love until death?
Until a cold breath came from the side, Xia Qianwei raised her eyes and saw that the sky was clear, but Xia Yihai seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud, and he looked at the blood coral coldly, as if he was looking at some enemy who did not share the sky.
Even the old lady's smile was a little stiff, and Xia Qianwei clearly captured the panic and worry in her eyes.
This thing is absolutely strange!
The Xia Mansion was quiet in an unprecedented glory, and on the lively table, the six princes looked happier than anyone else.
"Brother Huang, grandmother is really discerning!"
He looked at the prince with a slightly drunken smile, but he didn't notice the depth of Mu Yuan's eyes.
This handsome and calm man subconsciously looked for Xia Qianwei's figure in the crowd, and seemed to hesitate whether to remind Miss Xia San that this holy decree depends on blessings and misfortunes, can she understand?
At this time, the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion was already waiting at the gate of the General's Mansion.
"My aunt has something important to do, and she left in such a hurry, Qianwei didn't have time to thank her aunt. ”
A shallow laughing voice came from behind her to stop Qin Yuyuan's footsteps, and her face froze, before she turned around with a generous appearance.
"Why be polite, this is what my aunt should do, but don't send it now, hurry up and see your father, I'm afraid he will be unhappy." ”
Qin Yuyuan smiled provocatively, but Xia Qianwei didn't seem to hear the meaning of her words.
"Qianwei won this honor, how could my father be unhappy, my aunt helped so much today, another day, Qianwei will definitely thank Cousin Liu. ”
The well-behaved expression on Xia Qianwei's face was full of sincerity, but Qin Yuyuan's eyes suddenly changed, and she couldn't maintain that fake smile anymore.
She coldly pushed away the maidservant beside her and took a step forward, how dare she threaten her?
"Three girls, don't get too complacent. ”
If there were outsiders present at this moment, they would definitely be surprised by the appearance of the prime minister's wife when she said that she would change her face.
But Xia Qianwei fearlessly met her gaze as if she was about to breathe fire, and her smile became more and more soft.
There seemed to be a few doubtful glances cast from not far away, Qin Yuyuan restrained her expression at this time, just snorted coldly with hatred, and strode away.
Xia Qianwei looked at the departing carriage, a ghostly light crossed her eyes, and then looked at the maid beside her.
"What about my father?"
"The slave maid just saw that the general seems to have gone to the troupe......"
