Only then did Gao Jiayue realize something was wrong. These were not officials hired by her servants.

The man walking in front was wearing eunuch clothing, and behind him followed...

This is the scene of reading the imperial edict in the palace!

to whom?

To Gu Jinchu?

The marriage decree for her, the principal wife, has not yet come down, so does the emperor need to issue an imperial decree personally for a concubine?

Gao Jiayue suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

She would not give up her position as the second prince's wife to someone else, would she?

Gao Jiayue, who was in a daze, was pulled away from where she was by Yuan's mother.

He made room for Gu Jinchu and her family, but was scolded by the guards in a cold tone.

The eunuchs and guards walked in one after another, holding things in their hands.

Then the eunuch who announced the decree was heard chanting loudly:

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:

Gu Jinchu, the daughter of the Gu family, is as capable as any man. She is well-educated, intelligent and quick-witted. She has repeatedly exposed the conspiracies of the Fuso people and was specially granted the title of county princess.

Grant 10 pieces of brocade, reward taels of silver, taels of gold, and grant the title of 'Anping'. This is the official decree! "

"Princess Anping, please come and receive the decree."

Huang Tong, the eunuch who read the imperial edict, spoke kindly to Gu Jinchu who was kneeling in the front.

The Treasure Pavilion is really bustling today. A cup of tea ago, it was noisy inside, but now there are people kneeling on the ground.

No matter if it's the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor or the future wife of the prince, none of them are as interested in the county princess!

They all stood on tiptoe and looked inside through the open windows, wanting to see how graceful the county lady was who had exposed the Japanese and was personally appointed by the emperor.

Gu Jinchu was not unfamiliar with the eunuch Huang Tong, having dealt with him once before.

Besides, Jiang Nansheng once said that the emperor’s reward would be delivered soon.

What surprised her was that she would be canonized as a county lady.

Gu Jinchu took the bright yellow imperial edict from Huang Tong's hands with both hands, and said in a firm and solemn voice, "Thank you for your grace."

Huang Tong looked at Gu Jinchu in front of him. It had been less than half a year since he last saw her, and this girl's status had undergone a drastic change.

He took a step forward, raised his hand to stop her from getting up, and said in a shrill voice with a hint of flattery, "Don't worry, County Lady. I'm here with two imperial edicts."

Gu Jinchu looked up and saw that the eunuch was indeed holding an imperial edict in his hand.

At this moment, Gao Jiayue's heart sank to the bottom, and she could no longer keep her position as the queen.

Huang Tong picked up another imperial edict from the tray behind him and began to chant loudly:

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:

The Princess of Anping County is both talented and virtuous, upright and at a young age.

Jiang Nansheng, the youngest son of Duke Dingguo, has solved many strange cases since he took office as the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, which has greatly pleased me.

You and Princess Anping are a perfect match. To make the two of you beautiful, I hereby grant you a marriage. Princess Anping will be married to you, my dear Jiang. You can choose an auspicious date to get married.

Admire this. "

After saying this, Huang Tong put away the imperial edict in his hand, bowed and presented it with both hands, "County Lady, come and receive the edict."

Warm applause suddenly broke out in the Treasure Pavilion, and then the crowd watching the excitement outside the window also began to applaud.

Zheng Mudan's heart was in turmoil. She stood up with the help of Tong Mama beside her, turned around and asked her to get some silver and money to bribe the eunuchs who were responsible for announcing the imperial decree.

Gu Jinchu was stunned for a while, even though many things were very different from what happened in his previous life.

The imperial decree granting marriage was delivered to her at about the same time.

It’s just that in the previous life, it was my grandmother who asked for it out of kindness.

Now thinking back, there was no connection between my grandmother and Concubine Shu.

She knelt there and said deeply, "Thank God for your grace."

When he raised his head again and stood up, all the emotions in his eyes had been suppressed.

At this time, Qin Lang strode in from outside the door. He and Huang Tong were both people who often walked around the emperor, so their attitudes were naturally familiar.

He did not hide it and stuffed a few banknotes into Huang Tong's sleeves. "The weather is hot, please have some tea."

Huang Tong held her hand, his smile deepened, and he asked knowingly, "Master Qin and Princess Anping?"

Qin Lang said vaguely: "Chu Jie'er called me uncle, we are a family! A family..."

When Zheng Mudan saw Mother Tong coming over with the silver, she shook her head at her.

There is no need to do it twice, it will only embarrass Qin Lang.

She stood beside Qin Lang and said to the eunuch who announced the imperial edict with a smile, "I wonder if it would be convenient for Your Excellency to go to the inner room for a cup of tea." She also wanted to know how the imperial edict was delivered here, and whether the Gu family knew about this.

Gu Jinchu asked someone to find a nanmu box, put the two imperial edicts in it, held them in his arms, and stood beside his mother and Qin Lang.

Huang Tong waved his hand and told them not to be polite, as they still had to return to the palace to report.

He also said that he had gone to the Gu family to deliver the imperial edict, and only then did he know what had happened in the Gu family. He then came to the Treasure Pavilion and said with a smile that good things really take time to come.

The one who sent away was the eunuch who announced the imperial decree. Zheng Mudan still couldn't believe it.

The two imperial edicts came quite unexpectedly.

It was only then that they discovered that the Gao family members who had come to the Treasure Pavilion to cause trouble had long disappeared without a trace.

As the person involved, Gu Jinchu was the most calm and composed.

Asking people to close the store is not what they want, neither is the icing on the cake nor the timely help.

At the same time, Shopkeeper Song gave everyone wedding money, which not only protected the customers, but also did not make people feel superior, and did not allow people to criticize his attitude and handling methods.

I believe that starting from tomorrow, the Treasure Pavilion will become more lively.

Gu Jinchu also ordered people to give rewards to the shopkeeper, craftsmen and employees.

By the time he got on the carriage, Gu Jinchu's face was stiff from smiling and his voice was hoarse.

Qin Lang naturally would not miss the opportunity to go back to the Peony Garden with the mother and daughter. He let the servants lead the tall horse he rode and sat in the green-curtained carriage with them.

Zheng Mudan was shocked and confused. She finally calmed down after drinking a cup of tea.

Only then did I have the energy to think about what Gao Jiayue said.

Gu Jinchu was the same. She looked at her mother and smiled faintly, "My father must have done something behind my back..."

When Gu Huanian was on duty, he felt that his colleagues looked at him strangely, especially Dong Ping.

"Brother Gu really gave birth to a good daughter. I admire you..."

He looked at Dong Ping's back and felt a little puzzled. If he hadn't been drinking with him that day, how could he have met the Second Prince...

To this day, there is still a sense of unreality that the legitimate daughter can become the second prince's concubine.

Zhang Shun saw the master coming out of the Guanglu Temple and trotted towards him. He seemed to have been waiting for a long time and his clothes were soaked.
