Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 263 Attitude
Last night, she told her aunt about her thoughts. After discussing for a long time, they both felt that entering the palace was an excellent way out. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it would be a step up to the sky. Su Wan, a daughter of a local doctor, could enter the palace. Could it be that the lady of her majestic prince's family can be worse than her?

It's just that because there is no way to enter the palace, even the Marquis of Lingbi would not agree, so she wanted to borrow Su Wan's light, so she was so concerned about Su Wan's entry into the palace.

Just when Tang Lingyu felt that it was hopeless to enter the palace, she saw Shizi's wife, Mrs. Yu, rushing in, with a smile on her face, and shouted directly as soon as she entered the door: "Ma'am, ma'am, the imperial decree has arrived——"

Su Wan hadn't left the flower hall yet, upon hearing this, she couldn't help but stop.

Even Tang Lingyu and Tang Huiyu showed disbelief and surprise on their faces——

At this time, come to the imperial decree, what else can it do?It must be about entering the palace.

Mrs. Lingbihou in the Xicijian heard this, she was overwhelmed with surprise and couldn't help but chanted "Amitabha". Mama Ding, who was talking with her, also said in surprise and joy: "Congratulations, Mrs. Hexi."

"It's not busy, it's not necessarily this matter!" Although Madam Lingbihou was happy, she was still afraid of losing her hope, so she tried her best to suppress herself. Just at this time, Mrs. Yu had already entered, and she came forward to salute with a smile on her face. : "Madam, my daughter-in-law has announced good news for you..."

"Quickly, what is it? Is it really the imperial decree?" Madam Lingbihou immediately stood up and asked impatiently.

Tang Lingyu, Tang Huiyu, and Su Wan also came over. Except for Su Wan who had known about it for a long time, everyone else looked surprised and excited.

"Isn't it? Eunuch Jiao, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, personally delivered the imperial decree! It's in the front hall now, accompanied by Master Hou and Master Shizi!" Yu said beamingly.

It happened to be Xiu Mu today, so they were all in the mansion.

Madam Lingbihou breathed a sigh of relief, and happily ordered: "Hurry up and have someone set up the incense table in the main hall."

"The daughter-in-law has already ordered her to go down." Yu said quickly, "Madam, don't worry now, our family is really going to have a mother."

As he spoke, he looked at Su Wan and laughed.

The others also looked at Su Wan happily and enviously, but the imperial decree hadn't been promulgated, so it wasn't easy to congratulate her.

"Okay, don't delay, go and change your dress to receive the imperial edict."

In the front hall, Tang Shilong, Marquis of Lingbi, Tang Jinghao, the eldest son, and Tang Jingrong, the second son, were talking with Eunuch Jiao.

This Eunuch Jiao is the one who delivered the decree to Su Wan last time. His name is Jiao Rong. He is a little fat and has a smile on his face, looking very kind.

Tang Shilong is quite upright, he never offends these eunuchs, but he is not close to them, he just talks politely, but his eldest son Tang Jinghao is very good at talking, and the smile on Eunuch Jiao's face never fades. Of course, this is also due to Father Jiao's intention to make friends.

Hearing the eldest son Tang Jinghao's inquiring about the imperial decree, Eunuch Jiao didn't reveal anything, just smiled and said: "Our family is only responsible for delivering the decree, and we don't know the specific content of the imperial decree."

This is too false when you hear it. You must know that every order dictated by the emperor is recorded by the eunuch Bingbi with a vermilion pen. How can you not know?
He only heard Mr. Jiao change the subject, and said again: "However, Lord Hou and Shizi don't have to worry, our family guarantees that it must be a good thing."

In fact, after this order was issued, it was not without objections from the cabinet and the six ministers. Unfortunately, the emperor has made up his mind, and there is absolutely no reason to take back what he said. It is not too much to confer a wife to the imperial court.

Another point is that the other party is a woman, even if it is a first-class wife, it is not threatening, if it is sealed, it will be sealed, so after a few symbolic words that are not in compliance with the rules, they all die down.

They also didn't want to offend His Majesty for such a trivial matter.

Moreover, this edict was drafted by His Majesty himself.

From Eunuch Jiao's attitude, Marquis Lingbi and the others knew that it must be a good thing. They were just curious as to what position His Majesty had given Su Wan. Unfortunately, Eunuch Jiao was too cunning. Did not find out.

While everyone was talking, someone came to say that Mrs. Lingbihou and the others were already waiting in the main hall.

When Eunuch Jiao heard the words, the smile on his face deepened, he stood up and said to everyone: "Okay, since we are ready, let's not delay, let's issue the decree immediately!"

The father and son of Lingbihou naturally had no objection. They went to the main hall at the back and knelt down in front of the incense table with Mrs. Lingbihou. Eunuch Jiao stood facing south. Completed the imperial decree, raised his chest and retracted his abdomen, and began to read aloud——

"Fengtian Chengyun: Emperor Kuanwen Rensheng made the day..."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help being excited, and became more and more certain in their hearts that this was the imperial edict of the concubine Feng.

"Zhaoyue" and "Zhiyue" are different.

The "Zhaoyue" was drafted by the Imperial Academy, and after the Cabinet Scholars announced it, it was written by the Shuji calligraphy masters appointed by the emperor, and finally sealed with the emperor's jade seal.The "Zhiyue" was written by the emperor himself for the recipients or important events he valued, and then it was issued by the cabinet ministers and the six ministries, so the meaning is naturally different.

However, because the imperial edict had not been finished, everyone could only suppress their emotions and continue to listen to Eunuch Jiao read the imperial edict.

The first part was full of Datong's words of praise to Emperor Xiande, and at the end, he said Su Wan——

"...Now there is a daughter of the Su family from the Guide Mansion, with noble medical ethics, rejuvenated hands, benevolent and benevolent, with a pure and kind heart. Adhering to the empress dowager's benevolent order, she was specially conferred the title of first-class Mrs. Chu, a mansion, one hundred taels of gold, one thousand taels of silver, ten households of official slaves, and one hundred hectares of fertile land. She was also given a gold seal for Mrs. Chu, hereby. "

After listening to the imperial decree, almost everyone was stunned and couldn't help but look at each other.

Why is it not the will of entering the palace to be a concubine, but what is the wife of a first-rank country?

What other golden seals represent status, they have never heard of rewarding women.

What's more, the imperial decree didn't mention that Su Wan is the emperor's woman, so... what the hell is going on?

Eunuch Jiao didn't look at other people's shocked expressions, he just smiled and said to Su Wan: "Congratulations to Mrs. Chu, congratulations to Mrs. Madam, come forward and give me an order to thank you!"

"My concubine accepts the decree, thank you, my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" Su Wan took the imperial decree with both hands, and kowtowed to Long En.
