The princess is very versatile, leaving the prince to become the richest
Chapter 7 Marriage Decree
Lost in her memories, Jiang Qingyu accidentally ate all the snacks. Only then did she remember that Ran Yang had been gone for most of the day and had not returned yet.
Jiang Qingyu got up from the chair and walked towards the door, intending to go to the small kitchen to find something to eat herself. However, before she even left the house, she was almost bumped into by Ran Yang who was running towards her.
Jiang Qingyu took a few steps back and looked at Ran Yang who had empty hands.
"Aren't you going to get food? Where's the food? Are there wolves chasing you when you run so fast?"
"No, miss, I just packed the food and was about to bring it over.
But the housekeeper Jiang who was beside the master appeared and told the servant to come and call you to go to the front hall quickly, saying that someone from the palace had come. "
After hearing what Ran Yang said, Jiang Qingyu's heart skipped a beat.
She was so focused on the Jiang family's affairs that she forgot what happened yesterday morning and slept with the emperor's most beloved son.
If his son is bullied, the father will definitely save his face.
Moreover, the imperial edict came neither earlier nor later, but just when she had just woken up. I'm afraid this imperial edict is not a good thing.
Should I kill myself to clear the name of the King of Qi? No, I finally have a chance to start over, ah~
Jiang Qingyu was in a state of devastation. She didn't want to go, but if she didn't go, it would be tantamount to disobeying the imperial order, which was enough to get her beheaded.
It's a knife anyway, so who cares? Let's take the imperial edict first. The time now is stolen anyway.
Jiang Qingyu finally brought Ran Yang to the front hall. When she arrived, all the masters, big and small, in the Duke's Mansion had also arrived.
The younger ones may not have seen anyone in the palace and hid behind their respective aunts.
They poked their little heads out curiously, trying to figure out what was going on.
Jiang Qingyu looked at them hiding behind their mother and remembered her past self. This was how her mother protected her when she was scared.
Next to the eldest lady, she saw her timid and cowardly "stepfather". She could see that he looked a little scared and was looking at her with an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Jiang Qingyu expressed helplessness about Jiang Dad's behavior.
Even after being a Duke for so many years, his timid and cowardly nature has not changed.
The eldest lady and her sister Jiang Qingchen saw that she was looking at them and smiled at her silently.
Looking forward, she saw the figure that appeared in her blurry vision yesterday morning.
At this moment, he was standing in the middle of the hall holding the imperial edict, with royal guards standing on both sides. Anyone who was timid would be scared to pee their pants seeing this scene.
"Jiang Qingyu" used to go to the palace frequently and was more familiar with Eunuch Wang than others.
Now she stepped forward and bowed to Eunuch Wang.
"Hello, Eunuch Wang, thank you for rescuing me yesterday."
His words and actions are graceful and elegant, many times better than before.
Eunuch Wang was still a little uncomfortable seeing Jiang Qingyu being so polite. He thought that maybe what happened yesterday had made her grow up.
He smiled and looked at Jiang Qingyu happily.
"Miss Jiang, please stop being so polite. We were only there yesterday in compliance with the emperor's order. If you want to thank someone, thank the emperor instead.
Besides, you will soon be the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and I will have to pay my respects to you in the future."
After Jiang Qingyu heard what Eunuch Wang said, it seemed that he was not here to question her. Could he be here to grant her a marriage?
After Eunuch Wang finished speaking, he saw that the yard was full of people and those who were supposed to come had arrived, so he cleared his throat.
"Miss Jiang is here now, the Duke's Mansion is listening to your orders."
After he finished speaking, all the members of the Jiang family knelt on the ground with a loud bang.
Jiang Qingyu also knelt behind Jiang Dad, and then heard Jiang Dad's weak voice.
"Your servant Jiang Sheng and everyone in the Duke's Mansion will obey your orders."
Although a lot of psychological preparation had been done, kneeling down was still a bit awkward for Jiang Qingyu who had just traveled through time.
You have to know that the idea she has always accepted is to kneel to heaven, to the earth, and to her parents. Everyone has knelt down, and if she doesn't kneel down, it would not only be impolite.
It is even more disrespectful to the imperial edict and the emperor. Even the former Jiang Qingyu would never dare to do such a thing.
Eunuch Wang saw that everyone had knelt down before he opened the imperial edict.
Then the voice of Eunuch Wang filled the whole hall.
"In compliance with the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims that the daughter of Duke Ye, Jiang Qingyu, is both virtuous and talented, beautiful and intelligent, and a kind and gentle woman. She is a perfect match for my third son, and I grant her the right to marry him on May 17th..."
After confirming that it was an imperial decree granting marriage, Jiang Qingyu could finally put her heart at ease.
She didn't care what was behind the imperial edict, it was just some words of praise.
How can "Jiang Qingyu" deserve to be described as having both talent and virtue, and being beautiful and intelligent?
Although the two were engaged, drugging the prince was a big taboo.
Only she, "Jiang Qingyu", relying on her fearlessness of death, could do such a thing.
Jiang Qingyu thought about it and realized that today was May 13th, and there were only three days left until the wedding.
Isn't May 17 too early? Is the emperor afraid that his son won't be able to marry a princess?
After Eunuch Wang finished reading the imperial edict, he looked at Jiang Qingyu who was in a daze.
"Ms. Jiang? Why are you so happy to hear that you're going to marry the King of Qi?"
Jiang Qingyu still didn't respond, and Father Jiang became a little anxious.
He stretched his hand back and tugged at Jiang Qingyu's clothes.
Only then did Jiang Qingyu react from her inner world and looked at Eunuch Wang with a confused look on her face.
Eunuch Wang reminded him again, "Miss Jiang, please accept the decree quickly. Didn't you always ask the emperor to set a wedding date for you and the King of Qi as soon as possible? Why don't you dare to accept the decree when the day finally comes?"
Jiang Qingyu quickly reached out to take the imperial edict and smiled awkwardly at Eunuch Wang.
Seeing Jiang Qingyu accept the imperial edict, the people in the Duke's Mansion also stood up.
Jiang Qingyu spoke only after everyone stood up.
"What are you saying, father-in-law? Qingyu just didn't react for a moment. Isn't it too hasty to get married in three days? You haven't even prepared for this?"
"Time is a bit urgent. This day is the nearest good day calculated by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. The next good day will be a month later.
The Emperor had already issued an order yesterday to start preparations in the palace. Everyone in the palace has now put aside their current work and is focusing on your wedding with the Prince of Qi.
As soon as the Emperor heard that Miss Jiang had woken up, he immediately ordered his servant to come and announce the decree."
After Eunuch Wang finished speaking to Jiang Qingyu, he turned to Duke Ye who was standing nearby.
"We would like to congratulate the Duke first. Please make preparations after we leave. You and the Emperor will be a family soon.
Although time is tight, we must do what we can, otherwise the royal family will lose face.”
"You are right, sir. Although Qingyu's mother is no longer with us, I have been saving up a dowry for Qingyu since she became engaged to the King of Qi. When the time comes, it will be a beautiful dowry that will not bring shame to the royal family."
Father Jiang bowed and nodded as he spoke to Eunuch Wang, then took out a bag of silver from his sleeve.
"I'm sorry to bother you to make this trip. Please accept this as a gift for Qingyu's engagement."
Eunuch Wang took it and felt that it was quite heavy, so he put it inside his clothes with a smile.
"Since it is wedding silver, we will accept it. We work for the emperor and we would never dare to accept it under normal circumstances.
Well, let's not bother the Duke anymore. The palace is busy, and we have to go back to report to the Emperor."
After saying this, Eunuch Wang left the Duke's Mansion with the Imperial Guards.
