The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 931 Changed people

Although the girl in the same attire was surprised in her tone, her expression was not like that, but with a hint of pride.

"Sister's news is always better than mine. You must have got the news a long time ago, right? I don't know which family the imperial decree will point our third girl to."

"Some time ago, you didn't know about our eldest wife's tone? Isn't that the one? Our third girl has climbed up to a high branch. I haven't seen those old mothers in the mansion have been very polite to the third girl in the past two days. ?"

"Really? The third girl has come to the end of all her hardships now. Those who disrespected the third girl before must have regretted it. Before seeing that the third girl had no support, they could toss around vigorously. Now look at how arrogant they are." .”

"That's right, I don't even look at the identity of the third girl. Even if she is not favored, she is still the eldest daughter of the first house!"

"However, I heard that there is more than one imperial decree today! That one is going to marry the side concubine as well, and the date of marriage is about a few days away."

"Please also invite all of you to come in and have a rest and drink a cup of hot tea."

After Yao Qinglan introduced Xiao Quanzi into the flower hall, he quickly sent someone to ask if the incense table was ready.

Yao Qinglan was in a complicated mood at the moment. He glanced at the tray held by the waiter behind Xiao Quanzi, and found that there were two imperial edicts on it.

He really couldn't figure out why there were two imperial edicts.

"Your Majesty, you are welcome. It is our family's honor to come here to read the imperial edict according to the emperor's order!"

Xiao Quanzi smiled with his brows and eyes wide open, as if there was some big happy event.

Isn't it just a happy event?This is a gift of marriage!

"Please remind Grandpa Quan, why are these two imperial edicts?" Yao Qinglan was extremely polite, and handed over a red envelope by the way.

"It's all at the mansion, isn't the answer about to be revealed soon? The Eldest Son is also a little impatient, so let me let you know. Anyway, it's a happy event. Don't worry, Elder Elder."

It is naturally impossible for Xiao Quanzi to be totally unaware of Prince Jing's choice of concubine.

The candidate for the first concubine mentioned earlier was the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, but now she has changed to a girl who is still a side concubine. I don't know how Yao Qinglan will react after hearing the imperial decree.

The money delivered to your door should not be in vain.Besides, after the announcement of the decree, it is common sense to give a red seal for such a great event, anyway, it will be given sooner or later.

"Master, our family has to rush to other houses later, shall we start now?"

Yao Qinglan always felt that Eunuch Quan's smile was meaningful, so he quickly stood up and said, "Then please, Eunuch Quan, move to the front yard, the house is ready."

Although according to his rank and hereditary title, the rank of the servant in front of him is very low, he doesn't need to be so polite.

But these officials all know that those eunuchs who accompany the emperor must not be offended.

Otherwise, they will look for an opportunity to put eye drops on you in front of the emperor, and make black hands, and they will be implicated for this without knowing it!
Yao Mengxian knelt down on the ground along with everyone in the house, looking at the crowd kneeling down, Xiao Quanzi nodded in satisfaction.

Then he cleared his throat and began to read the imperial decree.

He took out the first copy from the tray behind him, and the appearance of this copy was different from the second one.

First of all, the scroll of this imperial decree is black rhinoceros horn. In the Dayan Dynasty, only the imperial decree of the second rank would have black rhinoceros horn.

Reminiscent of the happy event that Eunuch Quan said just now, Yao Qinglan, who was kneeling behind the old Eunuch, did not feel joy, but suddenly felt cold all over.

The old Duke is a fine man, when he saw the imperial decree, he felt that today might not be what they wished.

Could it be that the daughters of their dignified Zhen Guogong's mansion can only become Prince Jing's side concubine?

Wouldn't that be ridiculous?Where is the face of their Duke's Mansion?
The main concubine is the first rank, and only the side concubine is the second rank.The old man held back his anger, bent his body, and listened to the shrill voice from above.

"By God's blessing, the emperor said: I heard that the eldest daughter of Yao Qingcheng, the minister of punishment, Menglian of the Yao family, is skilled and generous, gentle and honest, and has outstanding appearance. I am very happy to hear from the empress. The fourth son of the emperor, King Jing, Zhao Yu, has passed his age. When Yao Menglian was staying in Yu's boudoir, she and Prince Jing were created by heaven and earth. In order to become a beauty, Yao Menglian was betrothed to King Jing as a side concubine. All the etiquette was handed over to the Ministry of Rites and the Qintian Supervisor to arrange the marriage together. Announce it at home and abroad, and the salty envoys will hear about it. Dear this!"

Yao Mengxian took a quick glance at Yao Menglian who was kneeling beside her. She was really surprised by this imperial decree. She never thought that the emperor would appoint her second sister as Prince Jing's side concubine.

The old Duke and Yao Qinglan were also a little dazed, didn't they say that the third girl would be married to Prince Jing?How did she become the second girl?Or a concubine?

To say that with the status of the second maid, becoming a side concubine is considered a high climb, after all, Yao Qingcheng of the second bedroom is just an official position of a doctor in the Ministry of punishment.

oh!No, Yao Qingcheng has just been transferred to be a household doctor.After all, the eldest son Yao Qinglan was transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice this year and became the right servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Then Yao Qingcheng couldn't stay in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so he had to make way for his elder brother.

At first, I thought that there was no suitable seat, and I was afraid that it would be released.For this reason, Yao Qingcheng had several quarrels in the mansion, but a while ago, there was a sudden vacancy in the household department.

Yao Qingcheng was transferred immediately, and he stayed in the capital after all.

It turns out that this must have something to do with the gift of marriage, otherwise Yao Qingcheng would really be in danger if he wanted to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs. After all, how many officials are waiting for vacancies every year!
Yao Qingcheng's face was full of joy, he didn't expect the pie to fall on their second room.

Although I was puzzled by this, I don't know why the candidate suddenly changed, but the result was good.

But Yao Menglian's face was pale, and she glanced at Yao Mengxian in disbelief.

wrong!Wasn't the third sister given to Prince Jing?How could it be her?
She has long heard that Prince Jing's health is not good, and she is afraid that she will not live long, so should she be married and become a widow in the future?
A jade-like and gentle face suddenly appeared in her mind, and her heart ached.

This damned gift of marriage, why is it her?Just wait a little longer, she will have a chance in a short time, why is there a side issue?
Could it be that the third sister did something bad in front of her grandfather and uncle, and replaced the candidate with her?

Yao Menglian gritted her teeth, her downcast eyes were full of hatred.She doesn't care about Lao Shizi's side concubine at all.

"Congratulations to the second master Yao, this is the side concubine who has been awarded the imperial jade certificate, and it was ordered by Prince Jing himself!"

Seeing Yao Qingcheng's expression of joy, Xiao Quanzi also hurriedly smiled and congratulated, which was considered a coincidence.

Unexpectedly, except for Yao Qingcheng, the rest of the people had different expressions.

Ke's mouth was almost turned upside down, she didn't expect that after working for so long, this benefit would go to the second room, and the servant even said that Prince Jing chose it himself.
