Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

"Hurry up, let's go and take a look together. This is the first time I've seen someone receive an imperial edict!"

He hurriedly urged: "Come on, let's go together, I'll put the things back first..."

Wang came to the village chief's house and panted, "Uncle village chief, hurry up and go to Xuan girl."

The village chief, who was about to leave, heard this and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What happened to Xuan girl? Did something happen? Changxing, come with me to Xuan girl's place."

Wang waved her hands and said, "Village Chief, nothing happened, that's a good thing. The imperial edict from the capital city has arrived for Miss Xuan, and I came to call you because I thought my uncle was the village chief."

The village chief was shocked when he heard this: "Are you telling the truth? Is there really an imperial decree coming to our village?"

Wang took the water Wu handed her and recovered. She said, "There is no way I can joke about this! The imperial edict was brought by Mr. Mu, and he is at the door of Miss Xuan's house right now!"

"What are you waiting for? Let's go! Don't keep people waiting anxiously." Upon hearing this, the village chief hurried out.

Wang thought to herself, “Isn’t that what you keep asking?” But she didn’t dare to say it out loud.

Then the group walked towards Xia Zixuan's house. When they arrived, they saw many villagers had already arrived.

When some people saw the village chief coming, they made way and said, "Village chief, look, Miss Zixuan is going to receive the imperial edict."

The village chief nodded and walked in. He saw that Xia Zixuan had already had the incense table prepared. He asked, "Why hasn't Miss Xuan come yet?"

Jing He heard this and responded, "Our girl has gone back to bathe and burn incense, and will be here soon."

As soon as Jing He finished speaking, Xia Zixuan came over and greeted them, "Hello, Grandpa Village Chief and Grandma Feng."

"Okay, come here quickly, girl Xuan." Feng said with a loving smile.

Xia Zixuan walked down the steps with a smile. Mu Chenyi stood in front of the table and said, "Xia Zixuan from Linshui Town and Qingshan Village accepts the order."

Xia Zixuan, who was in the front, and everyone behind her knelt down.

Mu Chenyi looked at Xia Zixuan kneeling down. He frowned and thought about asking for an imperial decree for her not to kneel when meeting an official in the future.

He opened the bright yellow imperial edict and said in a clear voice: "The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, decrees: "Xia Zixuan, the daughter of the Xia family, is..."

Xia Zixuan only heard Mu Chenyi recite a long string. She didn't remember much and just wondered why he hadn't finished yet.

Finally, he recited: "Today, I grant Xia Zixuan, the daughter of the Xia family, a thousand acres of fertile land in Linshui Town and a thousand taels of silver."

Of course, there were also some other gold and silver jewelry as rewards.

After Mu Chenyi finished reading the imperial edict, he said, "Accept it!"

Xia Zixuan said: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Long live the emperor."

Xia Zixuan stood up and took the imperial edict that Mu Chenyi handed to her with both hands. She looked at the village chief and said, "Grandpa village chief, please get up quickly. The imperial edict has been read."

Upon hearing this, the village chief quickly said, "Oh, Xuan girl is really amazing. She donated so many things to the disaster area by herself. It's a great cause!"

Xia Zixuan smiled and shook her head: "No, I'm just doing what I can."

Someone asked, "Zixuan, can you show us the imperial edict?"

"Yes! This is the first time I have seen an imperial edict!"

The village chief glared and said, "How could you take the imperial edict? What if you damage or dirty it?"

The uncle smiled naively and said, "Village Chief, please hold it and let us see it! Just take a look."

"Yes, village chief, let us take a look!"

The village chief looked at Xia Zixuan in embarrassment, "Grandpa Village Chief, please take it! But don't get it dirty."

"Okay, thank you, Miss Xuan." The village chief carefully took the imperial edict.

He said, "Come and line up to see it. I have to tell you first, you are not allowed to break anything, or you will lose your heads."

"Hey, we got it, village chief." Then everyone lined up.

After an incense stick of time, everyone finished reading the imperial edict. The village chief came to Xia Zixuan with the imperial edict in both hands and said, "Xuan girl, I'll give you the imperial edict. Find a room to worship it."

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, Village Chief Grandpa."

"Okay, then we'll go back first. You treat Mr. Mu and the others well." The village chief instructed.

"Well, village chief, aren't you going to come in and sit for a while?"

"Don't sit here anymore. You guys can go back. We are leaving too." After saying that, the village chief turned around and left with the villagers.

After the people walked away, some discussion could still be heard. Xia Zixuan asked Leshan and others to carry all the things back.

He called Xia Cheng, "Uncle Cheng, go get someone to clean up a room and place the imperial edict in it!"
