Chapter 1546: Receive the Imperial Edict
Then he climbed into the carriage in a panic. He originally wanted to drive with Zhang Gaoyi, but now he really didn't dare to stay outside the car.
After they were all seated, Zhang Gaoyi waved the whip and drove the carriage down the mountain towards the capital.
At this moment, the eunuch who came to convey the imperial decree had arrived at the General's Mansion.
Old man Zhang had never seen such a scene before, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, the butler reminded him in time to entertain the eunuch well.
So, Old Man Zhang carefully invited his father-in-law into the living room, and then ordered the servants to serve tea to him, hoping that he would not mention the fact that his son had offended someone.
The eunuch beside the emperor was very familiar with the General's Mansion. Of course he knew who this old man was and did not care about his rudeness.
Old man Zhang couldn't help asking, "Eunuch, I see you are holding an imperial edict in your hand. Is this an imperial edict a good thing or a bad thing?"
The father-in-law took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, don't worry, this is a great joyous event!"
Hearing this, Old Man Zhang's worries were slightly relieved, but he was still a little nervous.
The eunuch continued, "The emperor has personally ordered that Princess Fuxia be betrothed to your son. This is truly a great blessing!"
When Old Man Zhang heard this, he was so surprised that he almost fell off his seat. He stared at his father-in-law with wide eyes and incredulous, muttering to himself, "Princess Fuxia... is betrothed to my son?"
My father-in-law smiled and nodded in affirmation.
Old man Zhang began to feel uneasy. He knew who Princess Fuxia was, and he also knew that his wife had offended Princess Fuxia.
After hearing this, the father-in-law immediately smiled and asked, "Is this a good thing? It's a great thing! Congratulations!"
Old man Zhang felt relieved and said quickly: "Congratulations! Congratulations!"
After changing two cups of tea, Zhang Gaoyi finally drove the carriage to the gate of the General's Mansion.
Although he had only been home a few times in the past month, the doorman recognized him at a glance.
The doorman hurried forward to salute and report to Zhang Gaoyi: "General, the eunuch from the palace has entered the mansion with the imperial edict. A long time has passed, and the housekeeper has sent people to look for you many times."
Zhang Gaoyi threw the reins in his hand to the doorman and replied casually, "I already know."
However, before Zhang Gaoyi could say anything more, Zhang Wangshi in the carriage could not wait to open the door and shouted to Bai Xiangyang inside: "Son, come down quickly, we are home. I want to see who dares to stop you from coming in today!"
After saying that, he spat fiercely on the ground.
She did not forget that Bai Xiangyang had mentioned before that the doorman did not allow the mother and son to enter the house.
Now, she must make the decision for her son.
Seeing this, Zhang Gaoyi hurriedly pulled the doorman behind him and said to Zhang Wangshi: "The emperor's decree has arrived. Don't rush to talk about other things. Go in and receive it quickly!"
After hearing this, Zhang Wang showed a hint of displeasure on her face, but she still followed Zhang Gaoyi into the mansion.
Along the way, she kept muttering, "Humph, this doorman is getting more and more ignorant. He actually dared to stop my son and I from going home! Just wait and see how I deal with him..."
Although Zhang Wang was still a little angry, it was an imperial edict after all, and she also wanted to know what it was about.
So I started to wonder in my heart, maybe Zhang Gaoyi got promoted again?
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
When Zhang Gaoyi and his companions walked into the hall, Old Man Zhang let out a long sigh of relief, and quickly walked up to his son and said, "Gaoyi, you're finally back. My father-in-law has been here for a while. I don't know if he will be angry if you make him wait for so long."
Zhang Gaoyi bowed to the eunuch and said with a smile: "I will go change my clothes and come out to receive the order. Please wait for a moment, eunuch!"
The eunuch also bowed and quickly replied, "General, please do as you please!"
While Zhang Gaoyi turned around to change his clothes, he did not forget to instruct the housekeeper to prepare the money for the reward.
The butler responded and left.
At this time, the father-in-law was looking at Zhang Wangshi. His half-smile made Zhang Wangshi feel very uneasy.
She had just returned from the temple and saw the people around the emperor. How could she not feel scared?
Then she left the main hall under the pretext of changing clothes, and took Bai Xiangyang out with her, asking the servants to find a set of Zhang Gaoyi's clothes for Bai Xiangyang to change into.
After Zhang Gaoyi changed into the military general's court robes and came out, he led his family members who had already changed their clothes to kneel down to receive the imperial edict.
Bai Xiangyang felt very awkward when he changed into Zhang Gaoyi's clothes, because Zhang Gaoyi was tall and slender, and Bai Xiangyang could not hold up his clothes!
At this time, he also knelt obediently behind Zhang Wangshi.
Although Zhang Wangshi was illiterate and did not understand some of the words of praise, she did understand that the emperor had granted marriage to Zhang Gaoyi and Ye Zifen.
Zhang Wangshi almost couldn't help herself and was about to get angry on the spot, saying that she didn't agree with the marriage.
But thinking about the fact that her last punishment had just ended, she was still a little afraid and didn't dare to get angry easily.
After the eunuch finished reading the contents of the imperial edict, Zhang Gaoyi was secretly happy, but still pretended to be grateful on his face. He quickly knelt down to receive the edict and shouted "Long live the emperor".
Then the housekeeper stepped forward and handed the prepared purse to the father-in-law.
The eunuch did not refuse and took it, then said to Zhang Gaoyi: "I have already gone to Princess Fuxia's residence. Princess Fuxia said she will come to the palace to express her gratitude tomorrow! The general can go with Princess Fuxia."
Zhang Gaoyi knew clearly that the father-in-law was giving him a hint. He just gave him some benefits and reminded him of such an important matter.
Naturally, they wanted to let the emperor know that they had a good relationship.
So he stuffed a heavy purse into his father-in-law's hand and said with a smile, "Of course we have to go together. Thank you for your help on this trip."
When the father-in-law saw the purse, his eyes lit up and he said quickly, "How can such a happy event be considered hard work! It doesn't matter if we come a few more times. I'll go back and report!"
Zhang Gaoyi asked the housekeeper to see the eunuch off, and then he enshrined the imperial edict himself.
After Zhang Wang and the others left, they immediately found Zhang Gaoyi, grabbed his sleeve, and said with disgust: "You want to marry that wild girl? No, I don't agree!"
Her voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
Zhang Gaoyi frowned and said impatiently: "Mother, this is a marriage granted by the Emperor."
Zhang Wangshi stamped her feet in anger and said, "I don't care about the emperor. I just know that wild girl is not worthy of being my daughter-in-law! She is uneducated and I don't want her to enter our house!"
Zhang Gaoyi shook his head helplessly and said, "Mother, her upbringing was praised by the emperor. Do you want to find the reason from yourself?"
Zhang Wangshi heard this and became even angrier. She said, "How dare you, unfilial son, go against my wishes!"
