The old marquis' expression changed slightly: "But..."
The official of the Ministry of Rites raised his hand to stop him and said lightly: "Old Marquis, it is logical that this is the family business of your Shen family. I should not interfere, but today, I came here according to Your Majesty's order. Since this letter of death has been handed over When you come to me, you can't let me pretend that I didn't see it. Is it a violation of the law, right?"
The Ministry of Rites is responsible for all etiquette affairs.
Strictly speaking, this kind of book of shattering relationships also falls within the scope of responsibility under the Ministry of Rites.
Naturally, he could not pretend not to see it, otherwise he would be suspected of dereliction of duty.
If the old marquis wanted him to turn a blind eye, he choked back.
At the same time, the old marquis also realized that the official of the Ministry of Rites intended to favor "Chen Wan", and seemed to be very happy to see "Chen Wan" breaking away from the Shen family, so he did not have any affection and did things to the point of doing things to the death.
The eunuch Xuandi watched coldly and said, "These are all small matters. The old marquis should stop bothering him and wasting time. Your Majesty's imperial edict is the main business."
Old Marquis: "..."
Officials from the Ministry of Rites handed the cut-off letter to Xiao Lingyue: "Remember to go to the government to make a record, and then the genealogy will be named before they can be completely eliminated."
Xiao Lingyue said gratefully: "Thank you for your reminder." She took the cut-off book and retreated aside.
It's hard to change any more.
The old marquis only felt a stream of blood rushing to his throat, his heart thorned and his face looked extremely ugly.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites and the eunuchs who proclaimed the eunuchs on the steps seemed to have not seen it.
"Your Majesty has an order to promulgate—"
The eunuch's expression was solemn, he stretched out his voice, and unfolded the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.
The Shen family, who were kneeling below, bowed their heads at the same time, and the guards, eunuchs, yamen runners and others inside and outside the mansion, knelt all over the ground.
The atmosphere is solemn and dignified.
Although Xiao Lingyue did not have to kneel down to accept the order, she also lowered her head to show her respect for the imperial edict.
"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered: After the founding heroes, Shen Zhijiang, the Marquis of Nanyang, did not cultivate his inner curtains, and did not teach his daughter well. The second concubine's daughter Shen Yuting was disrespectful and acted boldly and unforgivable.
From now on, the throne of Nanyang will be removed from the throne and will never be restored. The second daughter Shen Yuting will be sentenced to prison and will be executed after the autumn!
Shen Zhijiang was demoted to the third rank and fined him one year to serve as a warning!
Your Majesty was granted a pardon. Thinking of Shen Wu's age, he made contributions to the country and was still in his lifetime. He still enjoyed the title of Marquis of Nanyang and lived his life.
I'm so proud of this-"
The sharp and loud voice of the eunuch proclaimed the eunuch resounded over the marquis's mansion.
Then, he closed the imperial edict with both hands, raised it high, and said condescendingly: "Chen Mansion receives the imperial edict!"
There was a silence around.
Aunt Hua's excited and expectant smile froze on her face, and she raised her head in disbelief.
Shen Zhijiang's face turned pale, his whole body was trembling uncontrollably, and he knelt on the ground limply.
The surroundings were filled with the servants of the Shen family, who were stunned and stiff, as if they were struck by lightning, and they could not recover from their senses.
Has the Marquis' Mansion been seized?
Miss II was sentenced to death?
The master's official position was demoted to the third rank in a row?
Why is this happening?! Didn’t it mean that the second lady is with His Highness Xiang and the imperial edict is here to give the marriage?
The old marquis' head buzzed, his throat was full of fishy smell. Although he was mentally prepared, when he heard the will, he felt like he was stabbed hard by a sword, and the piercing pain spread throughout his body. .
The Shen family... collapsed!! This chapter has been completed!
