After being struck by lightning and being in the world of women

Chapter 60: His Majesty King Wu Receives an Order

After this introduction, they got to know each other.

While they were getting to know each other, Zhong Ruhuang sat quietly drinking tea and glanced at Sun Pannu indifferently.

Sun Pannu had a cold face from beginning to end, without the slightest smile on her face, and she spoke very politely.

He is a man of elegant appearance, as pure and quiet as an orchid in a deep valley.

Zhong Ruhuang took a few glances and then looked away.

Sun Pannu didn't even look at Zhong Ruhuang. After meeting Xiao Ziran and the others, she left on the pretext of feeling unwell.

After he left, Zhang Yufeng and Bai Songying also left.

Xiao Ziran frowned slightly after Zhang Yufeng and the others left. For some reason, he felt that there was something wrong with Sun Pannu.

But the Hongmei handkerchief had been delivered long ago, and Xiao Ziran had taken a look at it, and he was sure that Sun Pannu was indeed a virgin and followed His Highness.

"Your Highness, Consort Xuan..."

Xiao Ziran has one good point, that is, he listens to Zhong Ruhuang and will study hard even if the housekeeper and the director don't know how to do it.

I didn't understand at this moment, so I asked directly.

Zhong Ruhuang shook his head slightly: "I don't know either, maybe he is just like that."

Weird.

Zhong Ruhuang herself didn't believe this nonsense.

Xiao Ziran had little experience and had not seen many secrets of the backyard, so he did not ask any further questions.

"Your Highness, I understand. You don't have to worry. I will take care of the backyard."

Zhong Ruhuang patted his hands and said, "I will be at ease with your work."

I'm not sure, but I have no choice.

It is only natural for the legal husband to manage the backyard. It is not like her mother, the queen, does not have a legal husband.

The wife and husband chatted about family matters for a while, and then Fan Yu ran in.

"Your Majesty, an imperial decree has arrived from the palace."

Zhong Ruhuang said "oh" and was not surprised at all.

She stood up and Xiao Ziran hurried over to tidy up her clothes.

"Your Highness, is this appropriate to wear?"

Zhong Ruhuang was wearing a simple homely dress, light blue in color, very plain.

Zhong Ruhuang held his hand and pulled him out of the main courtyard and went to the front yard.

"Fan Yu, go inform Consort Hui and the others to receive the order."

After saying this, she turned her head to look at Xiao Ziran.

"It fits perfectly, don't worry."

You don't have to wear court robes when receiving an imperial edict, just dress neatly.

When they arrived at the front yard, Zhong Ruhuang let go of Xiao Ziran's hand and stepped into the courtyard.

Xiao Ziran lagged behind her half a step and followed her into the front yard.

In the front yard, Butler Zhao had already led people to set up the incense table.

The person who delivered the imperial eunuch order was none other than Hou Songlin, the eunuch chief of Emperor Showa.

She bowed to Zhong Ruhuang.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness King Wu, and to His Royal Highness King Wu's wife."

"You are too polite, Eunuch Hou."

Hou Songlin was very polite and respectful to all the imperial princesses. No matter whether they were favored or not, she would never flatter the powerful or the weak, so she was quite popular.

Soon, Zhang Yufeng and the other three also came over.

Zhong Ruhuang took the lead and knelt down.

The one kneeling half a step behind her was Xiao Ziran.

Zhang Yufeng and Sun Pannu fell half a step behind Xiao Ziran and knelt down.

Bai Songying was kneeling at the end.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Wu Wang Zhong Ruhuang is diligent, filial, modest and polite. I am very pleased with him. From today on, he will be appointed as the General of Chaotian Pass and will be responsible for guarding Chaotian Pass. Three days later, the whole family will go to Chaotian Pass. I decree this."

After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, Zhong Ruhuang had a sense of déjà vu.

The knife has been hanging over her head for more than a month, and now it has finally fallen.

After all, she still had to guard Chaotian Pass.

"Female minister Zhong Ruhuang, I accept your order and thank you."

Zhong Ruhuang took the imperial edict and kowtowed respectfully.

Hou Songlin helped Zhong Ruhuang up.

"Your Highness, King Wu, please get up."

"The journey to the border is long, and His Majesty has given you three thousand guards to escort you to Chaotian Pass and protect your safety."

To put it bluntly, these 3,000 imperial guards are the private guards given to Zhong Ruhuang by Emperor Showa.

After all, Chaotian Pass is not a good place to go.

Fortunately, even if the princess of this dynasty is crowned a queen, she will not have any fiefdom and will not be able to afford private guards.

Zhong Ruhuang nodded, looking grateful.

"The Queen Mother asked me to guard Chaotian Pass because she trusts me. I will never let her down."

Even Zhong Ruhuang herself didn't believe what he said.

Hou Songlin also knew that His Royal Highness the King of Wu was an honest man, so he did not suspect that she was bragging.

She quickly left Prince Wu's mansion and returned to the palace to report.

The imperial edict of Emperor Showa clearly stated that Zhong Ruhuang and her family should go to Chaotian Pass, which meant that she once again lost the opportunity to seize the throne.

Zhong Ruhuang held the imperial edict in her hand, looked at her four men, and couldn't help but sigh.

"I believe you have heard the contents of the imperial edict. We still have a long day today. If you want to go home and talk to your family, go quickly. Just come back before dinner. You need to pack your luggage in the next two days."

After hearing this, Zhang Yufeng and Bai Songying got in a carriage and left Prince Wu's mansion and went back to their parents' home.

Sun Pannu hesitated for a moment, then left the house and went to the Earl of Ledao's mansion.

Xiao Ziran did not leave. In fact, he did not have much attachment to the Xiao family.

The person who treated him best in the Xiao family was the head of the Xiao family, and that was because he became the husband of King Wu.

Zhong Ruhuang looked at Xiao Ziran who was standing still, and thought about the situation of the Xiao family.

"Don't you want to go back to the Xiao family?"

Xiao Ziluan shook his head, "I don't want to go back."

It was okay to return home last time, after all, it’s a courtesy.

"If you don't want to, then don't."

"Think about what you're going to bring to Chaotian Pass."

The Prince Wu's Palace was bestowed upon Zhong Ruhuang by Emperor Zhaohe, and even though she had gone to Chaotian Pass, she was not gone forever. She could still come back if His Majesty summoned her.

So Zhong Ruhuang planned to only bring some necessary things and not most of the things.

Zhong Ruhuang didn't plan to bring Zhao Ping'an, the housekeeper, so she decided to let her guard the Prince Wu's Mansion.

Xiao Ziran nodded, then returned to his main courtyard and asked someone to pack up their things.

As for his dowry, all the big items should be left behind, and the gold and silver and the like should be taken with him, because a poor family can become a rich journey.

The news that His Royal Highness King Wu was appointed as the general and would be sent to guard Chaotian Pass spread throughout Chaotian City like wildfire.

The eldest princess and the others soon found out and all breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Yufeng returned to Duke Cheng'en's mansion.

Bai Songying returned to Prince Bai's Mansion.

Sun Pannu returned to the Earl of Ledao's Mansion.

The head of the Xiao family is well-informed. He knows that King Wu's concubines and maids have all returned to their parents' homes. So, Xiao Ziran, the legal husband, must come as well, right?

She waited and waited, but no one came, and before she knew it, noon had already passed.

Seeing this, Wang snorted.

"That's a white-eyed wolf."

He did not mention at all how he had abused Xiao Ziran in the past.

"You, Xiaofu's opinion."

Since Xiao Ziran refused to return to the Xiao family, the head of the Xiao family simply went to Prince Wu's Mansion herself, bringing her only daughter Xiao Zigu with her.

Zhong Ruhuang asked someone to invite the head of the Xiao family and Xiao Zigu into the study, and talked with them for half an hour before letting Fan Yu send them out.

As for what was said, it is unknown.
