Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Chapter 72 Imperial Edict

Seeing that Emperor Tianqing had returned to the details of the land tax, Xie Chengyin stood up and said goodbye.

He should go to Yan Ci to ask for benefits, and by the way, congratulate her and congratulate her on getting what she wanted and protecting the Yan Mansion.

Yan Tonglin had just returned to the mansion when the eunuch sent by Emperor Tianqing to announce the decree arrived.

Before Yan Tonglin had even had time to change his clothes, he came with all the masters and servants in the mansion to receive the order, and they knelt in a full courtyard.

The eunuch who announced the imperial edict was Yang Zhao's apprentice, named Hu Li. He was a famous smiley man and always smiled even when he met someone without saying a word. At this moment, when he came in with the imperial edict, that smile had increased to five points, and his shrewd eyes were narrowed into a slit.

His eyes swept lightly over the group of kneeling people, and finally landed on Yan Tonglin. He took two steps forward and helped Yan Tonglin up, "Master Yan, there is no one else here, so I will not read out the imperial edict. You can read it yourself."

Yan Tonglin took the imperial edict, unfolded it and saw that, just as he had expected, he was reinstated.

But, what does this last sentence mean?

"Appoint Miss Yan Ci, the thirteenth daughter of the Yan Mansion, as a female official in front of the emperor and select a day to enter the palace."

Yan Tonglin looked at Hu Li with a puzzled look. Hu Li smiled and said, "In addition to what is written in the imperial edict, this servant also brought a verbal instruction that can only be spoken after seeing Miss Thirteen."

Yan Tonglin glanced at the kneeling crowd and indeed did not see Yan Ci. He coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment, "I think the Thirteenth Girl is in the yard. She is far away and has not heard the news."

Hu Li didn't care much. He waited for Yan Tonglin to lead the way with a smile. Before leaving the palace, his master repeatedly told him to see the girl from the Yan family with his own eyes.

The so-called oral order was nothing more than a casual remark from His Majesty. He wanted to use it to meet the real person.

Everyone kneeling in the yard was a little frightened. They waited for a long time but did not see the imperial edict being read out. Several concubines bravely looked up, only to see their own master standing in front of them with the eunuchs. The expressions on his face changed constantly, and they felt even more uneasy.

Could it be that the situation is getting more serious?

But they haven't had time to sell off many of their gold and silver jewelry. If their house is searched, they won't even have any money to support themselves.

Compared with the anxiety and worries of the concubines, Jiang Qingqing was much calmer.

She has already counted all the financial assets of the Yan Mansion in the past two days. She knows how much can be cashed in and how much can be taken away. If their property is really confiscated or they are exiled, there will always be some private property that will not be seized.

Looking at the eunuch's attitude towards Yan Tonglin, Jiang Qingqing felt that things might be much better than she had imagined. At least, he would not be confiscated or exiled.

When Yan Tonglin heard that Hu Li wanted to meet Yan Ci, he was surprised, but he was mentally prepared.

Ever since he left the palace, he had been wondering how Yan Ci guessed that the emperor would want to see her.

He had originally thought of going to talk to Yan Ci after returning home, first to discuss the issue of land tax, and second to discuss how she guessed the emperor's thoughts.

But before he had the chance to see Yan Ci, the eunuch from the palace arrived.

Yan Tonglin turned around and asked everyone who was kneeling to go back to the courtyard. Then he led Hu Li to Yan Ci's Liufangyuan.

Liufangyuan was only about a hundred meters away from the main courtyard. She had already heard about the visitor from the palace, but she didn't want to go, but she didn't have the ability to refuse.
