Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 264 Reaction (1)
After Su Wan finished thanking her and got up, Eunuch Jiao immediately smiled obsequiously and said, "Madam Chu, please take a look at these rewards."

Afterwards, he waved his hand to ask the little eunuch to present the things one by one, including the golden seal of Mrs. Chu, the land deed, house deed, land deed, and the sales deeds of ten households of official slaves, and even the dress of Mrs. Yipin. They also brought in the rewards of gold and silver.

Apart from having more gold seals to represent the identity than those dukes and wives, there is not much difference in the others.

You must know that only the emperor and senior officials have the golden seal in this dynasty. In the palace, apart from the queen who has the phoenix seal, even the noble concubine does not have the golden seal.

This is also because Emperor Xiande considered that Su Wan's situation is special, unlike other imperial wives who were granted imperial titles because of her husband's family, so Su Wan naturally needed some foreign objects to prove her identity, so he gave her a golden seal. In this dynasty, it is also the first one.

When the others saw that Su Wan had accepted the order, they also stood up, but their expressions were still in disbelief, as if they had lost all their language at once. Even the wife of the eldest son, Mrs. Yu, who was always the most active, was shocked by the news at this moment. I didn't come back to my senses.

Seeing Su Wan go through the things, Eunuch Jiao said: "Now, the ten households of official slaves are in your current Mrs. Chu's mansion. Now they have been sorted out, and you can move in at any time."

"Thank you, Eunuch." Su Wan thanked her with a smile, then asked Han Yu to present a purse, and said: "Eunuch has worked hard, a little care is not a respect, please accept it."

Eunuch Jiao laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, it wasn't that he was raring about the money, but it was Su Wan's attitude, so he took it and said: "Madam is a very lucky person, and our family also wants to be a little bit lucky, so it's not disrespectful. "

Saying goodbye.

At this time, Mrs. Lingbihou came back to her senses and said hurriedly: "Why is the father-in-law so busy to leave? It's almost noon now, why don't we just stay and have a meal? Let us also thank the father-in-law."

"No need, our family has to rush back to return! Thank you Madam Lingbihou for your kindness. Lord Marquis, Master Shizi, ladies and gentlemen, we will take our leave first."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to Marquis Lingbi, and left with his people.

After Eunuch Jiao left, Madam Lingbihou immediately asked, "Sister Wan, tell me, what's going on?"

Her expression was very complicated, with joy and a little worry, but more of a puzzlement.

His majesty's decree is too puzzling. Seeing that he made Su Wan the wife of Chu, one can see how much he cares about her. But since he likes her so much, why didn't he take her into the palace?Wouldn't that be more justifiable?
What is so unclear now?
After Eunuch Jiao left, the third young mistress Wu Shi and Tang Lingyu and Tang Huiyu who were hiding behind also came over.

Everyone also looked at Su Wan with different expressions.

The father and son of Lingbihou had normal expressions, and they were the first to accept the reality.

Since the decree is below, so what if they don't accept it?

What's more, this is not necessarily a bad thing, it can even be said to be a good thing. Su Wan staying outside the palace is at least better than entering the palace to be tortured. Which one is easy to provoke, the fourth concubine or the empress?
Moreover, Su Wan also conferred the title of Mrs. Chu, the same level as the fourth concubine, which is enough to see her favor.

However, from a long-term perspective, it is not as good as entering the palace as a concubine, after all, the name is not justified.

Therefore, although they were happy, they also carried a little worry.

Yu Shi was only happy for Su Wan, even though the situation was far from what she had imagined at the beginning, but she finally had a noble status, didn't she?Besides, with Su Wan's status, even if she enters the palace, she probably won't have a high status, at least not higher than Guo Changxi, and she has to salute and greet people every day. ?
But Su Wan conferred the title of Mrs. Yipin, which is no worse than the fourth concubine, and she is also free. No one dares to despise her, so what is there to be dissatisfied with?

After accepting this fact, Yu Shi felt that His Majesty's arrangement was just right, and that he really thought of Su Wan.

But Tang Lingyu was a little dissatisfied with this. She originally thought that Su Wan said that she would not enter the palace, but she just said it later because she was afraid of losing face, but she didn't expect that she was telling the truth. It's not as good as going to the palace to be a concubine, the palace is the best place for a woman, even if she is only a low-level concubine, how can she take advantage of her power now that she is like this?

Compared with her, Tang Huiyu was just envious.

From her point of view, Su Wan has status and status, but she doesn't have to bow down to others, flatter others, or even serve her parents-in-law, and she doesn't have concubines to bother her. It's the life that many women dream of!

Although the Second Young Mistress Qin's expression was still calm, there was also a hint of envy in her eyes.

Compared with Qin's, Wu's performance was even more obvious. While envious and jealous, he couldn't help curling his lips.

Su Wan said: "Auntie, you also said before that the palace is not a good place to go. I have been in the palace for a month. I have a deep understanding of this. It's not that your majesty doesn't want me to enter the palace, but I refused. Auntie, I I know that this decision of mine is too capricious and selfish, which makes you all worry, but I really can't adapt to life in the palace. It doesn't matter that I have His Majesty protecting me now, but what about the future? The color fades and the love relaxes, in case Your Majesty If you don’t want to protect me anymore, isn’t my life in danger?”

Madam Lingbihou sighed softly, stroked her hair and said: "You are right, I was thinking about it before, it is better to live comfortably outside than letting you enter the palace, besides, if you really want to enter It is difficult for us to help you, everything depends on you. But now, we can help each other, not only will your life be safe, but you will also live comfortably. Your decision is very good."

After the imperial decree was issued, the news quickly spread among the families of nobles and officials in the capital, causing an uproar immediately.

Let's not talk about the great commotion caused by other people's family after hearing the news, let's just say that the Changwuhou Mansion at this moment is full of festive and lively scenes.

Changwuhou's Mansion has not been this lively for a long time. Except for those men who have their own affairs, almost all the young and old have been mobilized to accompany Mrs. Wang Tai to the theater together, and even the maids and women are also joining in the fun , to go bad luck, to be happy.

Although some people felt that it was inappropriate for Mrs. Changwu Hou to hold a banquet, drink and listen to theatres so much after she died not long ago. Of course, they all knew what was going on, but they should also pay attention to the impact, right?However, since this is the order of Mrs. Tai, no one dares to say anything. Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be tall ones to support it!What are they worried about.
