Guogong Mansion——Furong Garden

The concubine selection banquet was in full swing, and while the daughters of each family were still vying for beauty, an imperial edict from the emperor was sent to the Duke's Mansion.

Eunuch De came to deliver the edict in person, and the emperor was considerate of Wei Ling'er and specifically allowed Eunuch De to enter the Furong Garden courtyard to deliver the edict.

This was absolutely the only favor in the Zhou Dynasty! It can be seen that the emperor valued the king of Jin and the Duke of the country.

Soon, Eunuch De was invited to the Furong Garden courtyard, and all the family members of the Duke's residence were waiting in the courtyard.

Fortunately, Wei Tingshan loved Wei Ling'er, so Furong Garden was not small enough to accommodate the whole family.

Everyone present was except for Wei's eldest son, Wei Ziyu who had not returned from a business trip, and Wei Xi'er who entered the palace to attend the prince's concubine selection banquet.

Even the old lady of the Wei family, who had lived in the back house for a long time and rarely came out, came out.

The second and third bedrooms of the Wei family also came out to greet the imperial edict.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I have heard that Wei Ling'er, the daughter of Wei Tingshan in the Duke's mansion, is gentle and dignified, intelligent and beautiful, skillful and generous, with outstanding appearance. Xiao Beiheng, the king of Jin, has noble character, dignified appearance, and has made meritorious service in protecting the country. There is no family yet, but the two of them are made for each other. Wei Linger is specially betrothed to King Xiao Beiheng of the Jin Dynasty as his concubine, and they will choose an auspicious day in the zodiac to get married. I admire this."

As soon as Eunuch De spoke, everyone knelt down and listened to the imperial decree with different expressions.

Until Eunuch De finished reading the imperial edict, everyone thanked him unanimously.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live my Emperor! Long live my Emperor!"

Wei Ling'er received the imperial edict, and her heart, which had been hanging around for so long, finally felt at ease. The imperial edict was finally issued.

After everyone got up, Wei Ling'er took the silver bag from Forsythia's hand.

"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law, it's a hot day. Please be careful, father-in-law will take it to drink tea!"

"Old slave, congratulations to Miss Wei. Prince Jin and Miss Wei are a perfect match. They will definitely be a happy couple in the future!" Eunuch De sincerely blessed him before taking the silver bag. It was heavy and he seemed to be a sensible man.

"Good news, my father-in-law! Tea has been prepared in Furong Garden. My father-in-law can stay and have a cup of tea, take a short rest and then return to the palace." Wei Ling'er invited.

"I thank Miss Wei for her kindness. There are many affairs in the palace, so I won't bother you anymore. Farewell." After saying this, Eunuch De returned to the palace with his eunuchs.

After Eunuch De left, the old lady walked into the inner courtyard of Furong Garden with the support of the maid.

A group of people also followed in. Everyone knew that this was the old lady who had something to say.

The old lady of the Wei family is over fifty years old, her face is a little gray, her forehead has a few strands of silver hair, and her wrinkles outline the traces of time.

"Ling'er, come to grandma and let her see if she's okay?" The old lady spoke lovingly and waved to Wei Ling'er.

"Grandma, I'm sorry to worry you, Ling'er is already fine." Wei Ling'er shouted obediently.

"In the blink of an eye, Ling'er has reached the age to get married. Time flies so fast!"

The old lady looked at the granddaughter in front of her. She was slim and graceful, with outstanding appearance and decent manners.

In her heart, Wei Ling'er has always been a smart, well-behaved, sensible, worry-free and heart-warming child.

Wei Ling'er's mother, Gu, died young, but she was well-behaved and never rebellious since she was a child. Later, her stepmother Xu came in, and she stayed with her since she was a child. She was raised by a wet nurse. She has always been obedient and did not cause trouble for everyone.

"Listen to me, all of you. Ling'er is the eldest daughter of the Duke's Palace. Her marriage is the top priority of the Duke's Palace. Please be mentally prepared. Whoever dares to violate the law, don't blame my subordinates." No mercy! Mrs. Xu, please keep an eye on me carefully. If anything happened, I will only ask you." The old lady hit everyone with a stern tone.

Mrs. Xu was shocked when her name was called, but she immediately calmed down and said respectfully: "My daughter-in-law will obey her mother's words and she will keep an eye on her at all times to ensure that the eldest daughter will marry with glory!"

The people in the second and third bedrooms nodded in agreement, saying they would do their best to help the eldest lady.
