King Su's appointment came soon. As expected, he was the person in charge of Baishan Hall. After the edict, the government and the public were in an uproar. Some ministers thought that the emperor was interested in re-establishing a crown prince, so they rushed to the imperial court to flatter him. As a result, they were dismissed and exiled. Others
The man immediately understood what the emperor meant and no longer dared to jump around.
In addition, Ye Zhenzhen also received an unexpected surprise.
After Eunuch Lin, the eunuch in charge of Fengming Palace, finished reading the imperial edict, Ye Zhenzhen was stunned. It was not until Aunt Cui reminded her that she realized in a daze, stood up and received the imperial edict respectfully: "My wife, thank you.
The Queen’s Majesty’s decree.”
Eunuch Lin shook his fly whisk and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mrs. Ning Guo. You are given this title because the Queen and the Empress asked His Majesty for the decree. Your Majesty personally nodded in agreement. You are well-deserved for the title of Mrs. Ning Guo."
The imperial edict written on the finest silk was light and soft, but Ye Zhenzhen felt that it was as heavy as a thousand stones. She was really a little confused. She looked at Cui Weizhen, then at Aunt Cui, and said: "How could I be so virtuous as to actually cross
I feel ashamed that my mother has been granted the title of First Grade."
"What are you embarrassed about?"
If it were someone else, she might feel uncomfortable being pressed by her daughter-in-law. Far from it, Aunt Cui was really happy for her: "You gave advice to the Holy One and did great things that benefited the country and the people. How can you not be worthy of it?"
The title of Mrs. Shangguo? As for me, you don’t have to worry, let Wei Zhen earn one for me in the future."
No one would doubt Aunt Cui's words. With Cui Weizhen's ability and the importance the Holy Emperor attaches to him, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a first-rank official.
Ye Zhenzhen was named Mrs. Ning Guo, and almost as soon as the eunuch passed away, everyone in the capital knew about it immediately. Congratulatory posts and invitations came like snowflakes, and Ye Zhenzhen didn't have time to calm down before she dived in.
Busy replying to posts.
What she didn't expect was that after a busy day, she suddenly saw Zhou Xunting and Chu Ningyan, who had rushed back to the capital.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Zhenzhen was so surprised that she quickly asked them to sit down. Chu Ningyan took a sip of tea and breathed a long sigh of relief: "We heard that you were named Mrs. Ning Guo, so we came back very quickly to congratulate you. How about it?
You're not late, are you?"
Ye Zhenzhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No, it's just in time for dinner."
Chu Ningyan smiled and gave her a pink fist. She didn't know what she thought of, and her smile suddenly narrowed. She glanced at Cui Weizhen, who was talking to Zhou Xunting, and said: "The fourth-rank Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, will you meet our family in the future?"
Zhenniang, don’t you have to salute?”
Cui Weizhen: "...when did Zhen'er become your family?"
Ye Zhenzhen also smiled: "Having said that, I actually remembered it. Ningyan, you just met me. It seems you haven't greeted me yet, right?"
"Okay, you traitor."
Chu Ningyan pretended to be angry and scratched Ye Zhenzhen's itchy flesh: "I went out of my way to support you, but it turned out that it was good for you, and you immediately felt distressed. You are a shameless friend!"
"My husband, of course you have to feel sorry for yourself."
Ye Zhenzhen answered without hesitation, which made Chu Ningyan feel numb for a while. Cui Weizhen looked at her after hearing this, his eyes and brows were full of doting and love - Zhen'er was indeed so smart.
Yes, Ye Zhenzhen has figured it all out now.
I understood Cui Weizhen’s good intentions in asking her to report to Emperor Xuanwu. All the planning and preparations were to help her find a royal title as a royal lady!
