After binding the mistress system, raise cubs and train husbands in the mansion
Chapter 173 The Inexplicable Imperial Edict
"Your Majesty, Guard Xie was punished by the county lady to go to Qingyang to help the disaster victims. Therefore, after his shift, he has to go to Qingyang and has no time for socializing."
"So that's how it is." It seems that Zhihan is still frightened. This punishment is probably for the ministers in the court to see.
"Prince."
"What instructions does the emperor have?"
"Spread the news, and I will issue an order to help Guard Xie and Miss Shuanghua."
"My son understands."
Huang Desheng saw that the emperor was so partial to the Xie family, so he said, "Your Majesty, I heard that on the day of the flower viewing banquet, Madam Xu and Madam Yang embarrassed Madam Xie in public."
"If Madam Shi hadn't said a few good words for him, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to end."
"Oh? Whose wives are Madam Xu and Madam Yang?" The emperor couldn't remember.
"Your Majesty, Madam Xu is the wife of Minister Xu, and Madam Yang is the widow of Duke Yang."
When the prince heard this, he suddenly recalled what happened in the restaurant that day.
"Eunuch Huang, does Minister Xu have a daughter?"
"Exactly."
"How could Yan'er know?"
Murong Yan told his father everything that happened in the restaurant that day.
"Father, you also met them both that day."
"Oh, I remember now. Pass on my decree, the Minister of the Central Secretariat does not need to attend court this month, and should reflect on his mistakes at home." How dare he bully Zhihan? He is quite courageous.
"And his daughter, doesn't she want to marry into a famous family? I will grant her that wish. I declare my will. The daughter of the Xu family is multi-talented and filial to her elders. She is a role model for women in the world. I will betroth Duke Yang's only son to her. I wish the two of them to support each other and stay together until old age."
"Yes! Your Majesty."
After hearing this, the prince added, "Father, I heard that Duke Yang's only son is a dandy boy who spends his time eating, drinking and having fun, and even lends money at high interest."
"Oh? Does the prince have any evidence?"
"Father, this matter is not difficult to investigate. Just ask Jingzhao Yin to check it out and you will know the answer."
"Well, what do you think, Prince?"
"I believe that Duke Yang has made great contributions and is a model of important officials in the court. The late emperor granted the Yang family the title in order to pass on Duke Yang's character."
"However, the Duke's Mansion is now in name only, and Yang Ming's various actions have caused dissatisfaction among many ministers in the court. He is really unworthy of such a title."
"Yan'er is right." Moreover, there is no available talent in the Yang family now. Holding the hereditary title for nothing is undoubtedly a waste of the late emperor's kindness.
"In this case, Yan'er, find evidence as soon as possible and give an explanation to the ministers in the court."
"My son understands!"
……
Two days later, the imperial edict reached the Yang and Xu families.
Xu family.
"Eunuch Huang, what does the Emperor mean?" The Vice Minister was terrified. He hadn't even dared to submit a single memorial in the past few days, so why was the blame suddenly placed on him?
"Secretary General, I don't know what the emperor is thinking. I am just a messenger. If you have any questions, you can go out and ask around."
Lord Xu knew that he couldn't get anything out of him, but he was unwilling to accept it. The daughter he raised with the palm of his hand was going to marry the waste of the Yang family?
"Okay, Minister, please accept the imperial edict. It's already happened, so we should make plans early."
"Thank you, Eunuch Huang." Lord Xu was strong and calm. He asked a servant to take out a bag of silver and hand it to the eunuch.
"Oh, thank you, Minister. I'll take my leave now."
"Eunuch Huang, take care."
After Master Xu returned to his room, Madam Xu rushed over with snot and tears, "Master, what on earth is going on?"
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
When Xu Yuanyin heard this, she also ran over and cried, "Dad, I don't want to marry Yang Ming. He is just a street thug. Why does the emperor want me to marry him?"
"Daughter, Dad doesn't want to do this either, but this is an imperial decree. The Xu family cannot disobey it, otherwise..."
"No! I won't marry! I'd rather be a nun in a temple, with a green lamp for company day and night, than marry that scoundrel!"
"Nonsense!" Madam Xu interrupted her, "You are a lady from an aristocratic family, how can you become a nun?"
"Master, why don't we ask someone to explain why the Emperor suddenly issued an order?"
"Madam, don't worry. I have already sent someone out to ask. Just wait for the result. There is still a month before the wedding. I will think of other ways."
Half an hour later, the Xu family's servant came running back.
"Master, Master, I have heard about it."
"Tell me quickly! What's the matter?"
"I heard from the people that the emperor agreed to the marriage between Guard Xie and a girl from the Xie family, and Madam Xu embarrassed the county lady in front of her that day..."
The servant's voice became smaller and smaller, and he dared not speak anymore, but Madam Xu's body had already solidified.
She never imagined that her momentary desire for pleasure would bring about a devastating marriage for her daughter.
After hearing this, Lord Xu complained, "You said you had so much free time, but you chose to cause trouble for Madam Xie. Now you're fine, right? I'm grounded, and my daughter is going to marry that loser from the Yang family in a month!"
"Mother, please go and talk to Madam Xie and ask her to go to the palace to see the emperor and help your daughter revise the imperial edict. Your daughter really doesn't want to marry Yang Ming!"
Mrs. Xu finally reacted and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I'll go right away."
Without saying a word, she asked her maid to find a few valuable items from her dowry and hurried towards the Xie family.
The Yang family was somewhat surprised after receiving the imperial edict.
Madam Yang was worried that her son couldn't find a wife, but she didn't expect the emperor to issue an imperial decree.
However, Miss Xu is proud and arrogant. Will she agree to marry her own son?
Madam Yang kept wondering in her heart, although the Yang family had a hereditary title, the emperor had always disagreed with letting his son inherit the title. Did this imperial edict mean that Yang Ming had hope?
Thinking of this, she became even happier.
……
Xie Mansion.
"Hanhan, Madam Xu is on her way here. Will you go and plead for her?"
"Haha, did I take the wrong medicine? To beg for a snob? Moreover, this person is Prime Minister Liu's man, so we must get rid of him quickly."
"Well, Hanhan did the right thing. Tongzi supports you. However, Prince Fenyang is going back to Shangjing, so I'm afraid we have to make final preparations."
"It doesn't matter. We're waiting for him. However, we still need to let Yuan'er inform the Crown Prince about this matter. It would be best if the Crown Prince catches him in the act."
At this time, Jinshang walked in.
"Madam, Madam Xu is here."
"Let her wait in the main hall."
"Yes!"
After a moment, Yun Zhihan tidied up and walked towards her with a smile on his face.
"Hey, isn't this Madam Xu? What brings you here?"
"County Lady, it was all my fault before. I hope you can forgive me. Please, Your Majesty, let the Xu family go."
Yun Zhihan pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What is Madam Xu talking about? Why don't I understand?"
"Doesn't the county lady know?"
