Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Divine Decree

A touch of afterglow of dusk sprinkled on the armor of the golden armor guards on the Xuande Tower, and the armor that shone brightly and pierced people's eyes. Several fast horses have galloped past in front of Xuande.

The horse stepped on the slanting sun, and the sun shone brightly.

These knights rushed majestically along the Heavenly Street, the crowd panicked, and had to dodge in embarrassment, and a puff of dust rose from the Great Xiangguo Temple.

Mo Yunxiao saw this scene through the hanging window in Song Wu's sister-in-law's room, and couldn't help but sigh: "The government is really domineering," but she thought about it, the original owner of her body also liked to gallop in the downtown area, and it seemed that there was no difference between these people.

The knights "shouted" in front of the gate of the Fan Tower, the horses stood up and neighed, and the knights dismounted one after another, shouting loudly: "Where are the people of the Fan Tower! Don't feed the horses yet! ”

Several uncles hurriedly greeted them, and the leading one asked with a smile: "How many officials are on business?" The rest of the men stepped forward to lead the horses for the knights.

Fan Lou is famous in Beijing, and there are often nobles who come here to feast and drink, and the general tolerance officials here are not afraid of the uncle's wretchedness.

A knight with white skin and a hairless mouth raised his chin, held up a bright yellow scroll, and said, "Our family has come to announce the decree." ”

As he spoke, his eyes swept into the lobby and he said, "What about your shopkeepers?" The voice was high, and the voice was sharp, and when you heard it, you knew that it was a eunuch.

The uncle's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked: "What did the shopkeeper of my family do, and he still has to order the official family to arrest people?" ”

"Go! Can we tell you? The eunuch was a little impatient, pushed the uncle away, and walked inside, followed by seven or eight followers. At this time, there were already many diners sitting in the lobby, and the bustling sounds were mixed, and the soft pipa music of the singer was lingering. The uncles wanted to stop and were afraid of colliding with the emperor, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing that this group of people was not good, the originally noisy lobby gradually stopped, as calm as a pot of boiling water suddenly being drawn from the bottom of a kettle. A few of the diners and uncles were also stunned.

The eunuch swept everyone away and spit out four words in a loud voice: "The official family has a purpose!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, and whether it was a diner, a singer, or an uncle, they all knelt down.

Song Mingxuan and Song Wu's sister-in-law, who was still busy in the back kitchen, also hurried over. Song Mingxuan was still holding a pen in his hand, and Song Wu's sister-in-law was still holding two oil-stained hands. Both siblings looked surprised.

As soon as the eunuch saw Song Wu's sister-in-law, his originally stiff face and eyebrows were smiling, and he stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "Yo! Fifth sister-in-law, I haven't seen her for a long time, okay? ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song also smiled awkwardly, rubbed her hand on the shabby apron, and said quite uneasily: "It turned out to be Li Neiguan, we are ......."

Fifth sister-in-law Song was about to entertain, but Li Neiguan waved his hand to interrupt her words: "Fifth sister-in-law doesn't have to be busy, today is a matter of business." You see, the official family came to announce the decree, and our family had to return to the palace to restore his life after the decree. ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song and her younger brother glanced at each other, and asked, "But it's for the Mo family?" ”

"Exactly!" Li Neiguan replied.

Fifth sister-in-law Song was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "King Jian's Mo family didn't know about it in advance, so why did they come to arrest people?" ”

"Fifth sister-in-law!" Mo Yunxiao stood in the staircase corridor and shouted, and then came downstairs and said, "One person does things and one person does things, I once had a bad relationship with King Jian, but this is not about the Song family sisters and brothers and Fan Lou." ”

Mo Yunxiao's expression was awe-inspiring, revealing a heroic spirit that regarded death as home, which could not be convincing.

Li Neiguan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "What did the Mo family lady say?" When did we say we were going to arrest you? ”

At the moment when the three of them were surprised and puzzled, Li Neiguan slowly unfolded the holy decree and sang loudly: "The official family has a decree!" ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song and Song Mingxuan hurriedly knelt down, and the Mo family members who were watching on the second floor also knelt down one after another, only Mo Yunxiao stood alone.

Li Neiguan's face suddenly became a little unsightly, and he raised his voice and sang: "The official family has a purpose!" ”

She was still standing, not moving.

Li Neiguan blushed, and secretly scolded this Mo Yunxiao for not being authentic, why did he make a fool of himself here.

So he could only raise his voice again, glaring at Mo Yunxiao and repeating: "The official family has a purpose!" ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song on the side tugged at Mo Yunxiao's skirt and motioned for her to kneel. She knelt down in a daze.

"You should say that the people's daughter will take the order." Fifth sister-in-law Song mentioned from the side.

Mo Yunxiao repeated Song Wu's words very impatiently, but her attitude was very arrogant. Li Neiguan suppressed his anger and read word by word: "Edict, King Jian's rebellion caused Xiao Wall, fortunately there is a people's daughter Mo Shi to protect me, and I am really comforted." Although King Jian has subdued the law, the aftermath is to be done. What the court could not take care of in its spare time was the ear of the imprisoned woman in the thief cave outside the city. There is a difference between men and women, and it involves great defense, so I specially ordered the people's daughter Mo to act as the power of the imperial court, worship the envoys inside and outside the city, give the pass token, and have full authority to deal with the prisoner women. Chin this! ”

After Li Neiguan finished reading the holy decree, the entire Fanlou lobby was still quiet like water, and everyone looked at each other.

Someone else whispered to others, "How?" Is it an official for the Mo family's lady? ”

"It's not an official, it's a send."

"Sent? What is a send? Another asked.

"The dispatch is a temporary assignment, and when it is done, the authority is withdrawn."

"Oh, what a wasted effort!"

"What a vain effort!" The man looked at the two beside him with disdain, and explained, "The dispatch is not an official position, but there is a lot of money to be gained. Moreover, the dispatch is not subject to the control of the hundred officials, and only the official family can intervene, so the authority is also terrifying. This is true of any consolation envoy and remonstrance envoy. ”

"Huh? I see! The man looked stunned and said, "No woman has been sent since ancient times, has she?" What a miracle! ”

In fact, at this time, all those who heard the decree were shocked. Mo Yunxiao didn't understand what kind of medicine Zhao Ji was selling in this gourd, so he was silent and didn't speak.

Li Neiguan was even more angry, and emphasized again: "Qin this! ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bumped Mo Yunxiao with her elbow. Mo Yunxiao raised her hands unhurriedly and said, "The people's daughter Mo Yunxiao has the order, thank you Lord Longen." ”

The four words "thank the lord Longen" are what Mo Yunxiao sees from TV, not the practice of the Song Dynasty. But she added this sentence to look deferential.

Seeing that her anger had subsided slightly, Li Neiguan only "snorted" and handed the holy decree into her hands, and said coldly: "The people's daughter Mo, the official family is the first to open up the atmosphere, and the grace is on the top, so you need to always remember that you can't neglect your errands." ”

Hearing this, the Song family's sisters and brothers secretly screamed badly. Mo Yunxiao has a temper that eats soft rather than hard, and such a condescending admonition from Li Neiguan only aroused her anger.

Sure enough, Mo Yunxiao got up slowly, stared at him with straight eyes, and said, "The official family is kind to me, but it can't help but make people panic if he rewards me for an errand without asking." I asked Neiguan Li to reply to the official's family, saying that I can't do it. ”

After saying this, she shoved the holy decree into Li Neiguan's arms and turned around and left. Although Li Neiguan was so angry that his face turned pale, all the entourages were also dumbfounded, and the people in the lobby were even more in an uproar.

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has been a miracle that a woman was sent, and this woman's disobedience to the decree is a strange news that has not been seen in ancient and modern times.

Fifth sister-in-law Song was so frightened that her hairs stood on end, and she hurriedly went up to grab Mo Yunxiao, and said sharply: "Helu! Don't be rash! How can you disobey the decree of the official family! ”

"I can't do it, so why should I obey?" Mo Yunxiao asked rhetorically.

"How can this be true? Outrageous! Saints are taught, but women and villains are difficult to raise! Li Neiguan also strode over, pointed at Mo Yunxiao and said, "You...... You...... This is the anti-decree! It's a great crime of deception! Aren't you afraid of raiding your house? ”

"Oops! Official! Zhang Yun'er upstairs was the first to rush down when she saw that the situation was not good, and begged again and again: "This official, my lady is not sensible, and I ask the official to be lenient." We will receive this decree. ”

Li Neiguan shook Zhang Yun'er away and said angrily: "What is this, that, country woman, what do you know?" Do you think you are buying tea in your tea house? There is no effort to discuss! ”

Zhang Yun'er stumbled, and had to hold on to the handrail of the stairs so that she didn't fall.

"Mother!" Yun Xiang and Mo Yunze shouted in unison, and then rushed downstairs, followed by Li Xian Mo and Yun Xi, as well as Green Jade and Danzhu.

Mo Yunxiao's mind turned, thinking that his actions might affect his family, so he restrained his temper a little, and said to Li Neiguan: "I can't do the errand of the official family, if I know that I can't do it and still take the order, then I will live up to the hard work of the official family, wouldn't it be even more of a crime to bully the king?" ”

Li Neiguan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If you can't do it, you have to accept the order, and then discuss it calmly." ”

"Now that I have received the order, who shall I consult with?" Mo Yunxiao's eyes widened, and he didn't back down at all: "The Son of Heaven can't get on the boat, and he claims to be a wine fairy." Li Taibai can still refuse the call of the Son of Heaven with a full stomach of poetry, how can I do this beyond my power as a rural village woman? If the errand is smashed and delays the major affairs of the imperial court, then it will be me, a rural village woman, who will be responsible for it or you, Li Neiguan! ”

Mo Yunxiao's robbery was really an unreasonable argument, and Li Neiguan was speechless, so he had to roar angrily: "In this way, it's the official's family, isn't it?" ”

"That's what you said!" Mo Yunxiao looked around, made a square gesture, stepped on the stairs and said loudly: "Fan Lou is full of guests, everyone can hear it clearly, it is Li Neiguan who said that this is the official family, and there is no one else!" ”

She turned around and went upstairs. "How can it be!" Li Neiguan's heart was about to explode, only to feel that his eyes were dark, and he almost fell. Several people around him hurriedly held him up. "The Woman and the Villain...... Difficult...... It's hard to raise......" He was weak, holding a weak and trembling finger at Mo Yunxiao, who was slowly going upstairs.

Everyone was about to comfort him, but suddenly there was a burst of cannon fire outside the gate, and everyone was startled, and they all looked up, only to see smoke and dust, mixed with red scraps of paper. A team of palace people slowly advanced.

They each held a tray in their hands, and on it each of them was something that could not be seen clearly, but it must be something of great luxury.

The palace people stood on the side, and an old palace man came from the middle, opened the holy decree in his hand, and read it aloud: "The official family has a decree, and it is really helpless to send the people's daughter Mo Shi to punish the envoys inside and outside the city. I specially rewarded 50 horses of Shu brocade, three ferret skins from Liao, two catties of deer antlers, a jar of apricot blossom wine, five catties of yak meat from the Tubo tribes, a snow lotus, and a pair of agate bracelets from Hu Shang's tribute. ”

After reading the holy decree, the palace people ignored the people around them, just paced to Mo Yunxiao's side, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the Mo family's lady, please accept the decree." ”

Mo Yunxiao was stunned for a long time, and before she could speak, Yunxi rushed to say: "Big girl! These are very new things! Hurry up and thank you! ”

"I ......" Before Mo Yunxiao could speak, an extremely sharp voice came from outside the door: "The holy decree has arrived!" ”

People reflexively looked back at the door, this time it was a young internal official who came to announce the decree, followed by two young palace maids, one of whom was also holding a tray in his hand, which was a yellow, orange and orange piece like clothes.

Mo Yunxiao glanced at him and couldn't help but exclaim, "Zhang Di! ”

Zhang Di glared at her, stood in the center of the hall, unfolded the holy decree and read: "Female dependents are rare in the official world, and I want to lead the example of the former court, but at that time, the heroine was in the court, Tai'a was upside down, and the dynasty collapsed. I thought about it again and again, lest it would be difficult for the Mo family to convince the public, so I gave a royal cloak, with a cloak on my shoulder, and Princess Guibi was as powerful as me. Chin this. ”

Mo Yunxiao pushed aside the old internal official in front of her, ran to Zhang Di and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Zhang Di's eyes widened, and he desperately gave her a look, telling her to kneel down and accept the order according to the rules. But Mo Yunxiao didn't realize it.

She glanced at the two palace maids behind her, couldn't help but sneer, and actually walked over and picked up the yellow cloak and shook it in the air, the two palace maids couldn't help but "Ah! The ground screamed.

Mo Yunxiao draped the cloak over his shoulders like a coat and tied the rope, and the golden color was even more dazzling and dazzling in the light of the setting sun.

"Only women and ...... It's hard to raise a villain...... "Li Neiguan was still chattering.

Mo Yunxiao walked back and said to Zhang Di: "Tell the official family for me, I accepted this gift, as for those gifts from Liaoguo, Tubo, Hu Shang or something, I don't want it." Thank him for me. ”

"Mo Yunxiao!" Zhang Di suddenly shouted angrily, pointed at her and said, "You have no king's law!" ”

The old internal official also came over and complained to Zhang Di: "Such a bad woman, why is the official family repeatedly partial and conniving!" ”

"Helu!" Fifth sister-in-law Song ran all the way over, grabbed Mo Yunxiao's arm, and said in her ear: "The dispatch has a lot of authority, you might as well send this first." ”

Mo Yunxiao looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Why?" ”

"Aren't you going to revive the Ming Building?" Song Wu's sister-in-law said: "Also, there has been no result of your strange fall into the water at the beginning, so it is better to take this opportunity to check it out." ”

"Can you look it up?" Mo Yunxiao asked again.

"Yes!" Song Wu's sister-in-law said: "The power of sending is very great, and the big officials and officials in Tokyo will listen to you, do you say you can check!" ”

Mo Yunxiao thought about it carefully and felt reasonable, so she knelt down awe-inspiring and said, "The people's daughter takes the order." ”
