After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

Chapter 102 Delivery of the Canopy, Bad Luck

As soon as Xiao Han's decree was sent to Shang Shu Sheng, the prime minister of Shang Shu Sheng didn't even pass it, so he immediately handed it over to his subordinate, the Minister of Rites, and the Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites immediately handed it over to the right servant of the Ministry of Rites.

Zhang Zhen, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, said it was unlucky, because he could no longer hand it down. According to the rules, at least the decree of conferring or removing a knight must be read by the minister himself, so he had to go to the Xiao Mansion to announce the decree.

The central government of the Wei Dynasty implemented a system of three provinces and six ministries, and the local system was a county system. In fact, there was a state level above the counties, but this was not the norm.

The three provinces refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province. They are in charge of the formulation, review and implementation of central government orders and policies.

Empress Lou sent the Yizhi directly to Menxia Province without going through Zhongshu Province, because the process was wrong, but fortunately she was a little sensible and asked Menxia Province to review it instead of directly asking Shangshu Province to implement it.

The six departments refer to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry under Shangshu Province.

These court chiefs passed the edict so quickly, not only because they didn't want to make eye contact at this juncture, but also because Xiao Han was really unlucky!
This man!I can't stand to think about it carefully. You see, when they sat down and thought about Xiao Han, the son of Zhangling County, they all secretly lamented that this person from Zhangling County was really unlucky, so unlucky that he could hardly stand the cold water. !

Look at what has happened to him over the past year--

A group of bigwigs helped Xiao Han make a comeback!

Xiao Boya went to Beijing at the beginning of last year, and then his identity as the heir of the Xiao family was taken away...

The well-arranged attack and killing during the autumn hunting last year was interfered by his wife, and the success was on the verge of failure...

In October, he was assassinated in the imperial city, because of the acquiescence of the Xiao and Shen families, and then the matter was covered by Emperor Shaowu and Mui...

December is full of rumors, and it seems that there is no...

After the new year,
Taking a concubine in the first month was recorded by the Queen Lou...

On the first day of February, my wife lived in Beppu...

By March, even the titles and official positions were gone...

"Hiss... this is really unlucky, too miserable!"

In just one year, my family, identity, status, wife, and even my ability to be a man were gone...

"Hiss, this son of Xiao Han's bad luck, he was delivered to the canopy, it's so terrifying!" All the bosses who knew these things were amazed!
There are often unlucky people, and they are also common, but it is rare to be so unlucky as him!

It is impossible to say that they do not believe in fortune-telling if they are officials at their level.
In fact, the boss of the imperial court is more or less superstitious, believing in good fortune and karma...

Because of this, they all avoided Xiao Han, fearing that Xiao Han would bring bad luck to them...

Moreover, Xiao Han's experience also taught them that some of the taboos of their ancestors still need to be observed, for example - no concubines are allowed in the first month!

Being an official is for their sake, they know that if Xiao Han hadn't taken a concubine in the first month, his title would never have been removed.

Because, it was this incident that made the empress tacitly sever the relationship between Xiao Han and Shen Qingjun!

If Xiao Han and Shen Qingjun are still husband and wife now, and he is still the son-in-law of Duke Liang's mansion,
Whether it was for the sake of Liang Guogong Shen Pingnan or her clan sister Lou Shuhua, Xiao Han would not be chosen by Queen Lou to get rid of him out of spite!
That's right, Xiao Han has some relationship with Ruan Ming, but for the matter of Prince Buddha's birthday, no matter how you look at it, Li Xian is responsible.

So if he cherished his wife well, cherished that marriage, and didn't fall out with Liang Guogong's mansion, he wouldn't end up so miserable!
But it is a pity that the blessed do not enter the home of the unblessed!A blessed woman will not marry an unlucky man...

Even if the emperor granted him a marriage and made him a good match for the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Liang, he still wouldn't be able to keep her!

Qinghefang, Xiaofu.

Xiao Han knelt on the ground with a look of disbelief, although he didn't care about the title of Wei, and even more despised the title of Zhangling County Zi,
However, at the moment when he was really demoted to a commoner, he was very confused...

"Common people Xiao, please accept the edict." Zhang Zhen, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, was the unlucky person who took over the task of announcing the edict. After reading the edict, he saw Xiao Han kneeling on the ground in a daze, and did not urge him immediately. Instead, he waited for a while.

He understood that so many things happened to this man within a year, his family and his wife's family abandoned him one after another, and now he even lost his title.

The former Zhangling county son couldn't accept it for a while, and it took a while to recover, he completely understood!
But at this time, he had been in a daze for half a cup of tea. He could not relent and had to hand the imperial edict to Xiao Han.

If Xiao Han remained in a daze and refused to accept the imperial edict, and if he continued to delay, he might be dissatisfied with the imperial edict, so he urged Xiao Han to accept the edict.

"Your Majesty... the common people accept the order." Xiao Han knew what the person in front of him meant by urging him, so even though he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to kowtow and accept the order.

Seeing Xiao Han taking the imperial edict in his hand, the red-robed eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs behind Zhang Zhen gave an order:
"Come here, take off the official seal and ribbon on his waist, the Erliang Jinxian crown on his head, his jade and gold leather belt, and his county official uniform for our family..."

In the Wei Dynasty, the dress system for emperors and officials was very strict, and the levels of official hats and clothing were extremely strict, forming a strict hierarchical system. You can't dress however you want and how you want to wear it...

Therefore, the first step for Xiao Han to be expelled from the rank is to remove the seal and ribbon that shows his status as an aristocratic official, and secondly, to change back into a commoner by dressing up.

Civil and military officials above the ninth rank in the Great Wei Dynasty all wore Jinxian crowns. According to different ranks, different numbers of crowns and beams were used, three crowns for the third rank and above, two crowns for the fifth rank and above, and one crown for state officials above the ninth rank.

The county son is a fifth-rank title, so Xiao Han wears the Erliang Jinxian crown on his head.

A group of young eunuchs in Tsing Yi stepped forward and made quick movements on Xiao Han's head and body. In a blink of an eye, Xiao Han was stripped to the point where only a white silk obscene underwear and a pair of moccasin shoes remained...

Although it was early summer, it was the late spring cold at this moment. Xiao Han, who only had a thin coat, thin trousers and a pair of shoes, felt a gust of cold wind blowing. He couldn't help but shiver. He wanted to bend down and hug his hands to keep warm, but he didn't. No less arrogant and self-respecting, I can only grit my teeth and stand with my head held high.

Originally, according to his status as a commoner, he was not allowed to wear silk clothes, pants and moccasins, but now on the street, it is not good to strip naked...

Xiao's mother behind her was also stripped of her lovely crown and dress, but her treatment was better than Xiao Han's. Maybe it was because she was older and a woman.
So she only wore the coat outside her pleasant dress. Unlike Xiao Han, she left him a piece of clothing to cover up his shame.

"Come here..." The red-robed eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was about to order someone to raid Xiao's house and seal up the warehouse.
"Eunuch, wait a minute..."
