"Dare to ask Eunuch, is the Holy Majesty not going to court today?"

"This..." the father-in-law bent slightly, "I don't know, the slave was not on duty last night."

"Then... shall I ask Prince Jing later?" The censor at the side also moved a few steps towards the father-in-law, "The king is not in court, so the matter is too important to be vague."

"But..." another civil servant beside him said, "Prince Jing did not go to court today."

A minister beside him asked the prime minister in a low voice. "What should I do? Is it time for me to disperse?"

"No." The prime minister twirled his beard and stood back to his place, "Wait."

The wheels rolled, and in a blink of an eye, Xu Zhaoping's chariot had already arrived at the main hall. Xu Zhaoping concentrated for a moment, called a young eunuch to report in the hall, asked the officials to wait for a while, and then turned around and went to the side hall of the main hall.Feng Chengying is waiting there.

The little eunuch who was dispatched ahead had already stood at the door, and when he saw Xu Zhaoping coming, he immediately sang and said, "Your Majesty is here!"

Xu Zhaoping didn't wait outside for Feng Cheng to come out even if he had something important to do, and went straight in. The furnishings were extremely simple, only a few bookshelves, two chairs and a desk.Xu Zhaoping felt a little displeased, she suddenly didn't want to let the holy decree be written in such a shabby place.Although it is the same no matter who drafts it as long as it is an imperial decree, she still feels that the person who is conferred will be wronged.

Xu Zhaoping glanced at Feng Cheng who was already kneeling on the ground, hesitant, Feng Cheng really had nothing to boast about except his ancestors, using such a person to write the canon...

"Your Majesty." Feng Cheng knelt on the ground timidly and did not dare to raise his head. Today he is just on duty to fool around. Who would have thought that a father-in-law would come to tell him that it was his turn to draft an order.

After deliberating for a long time, Xu Zhaoping tightened his hands, flicked his sleeves, and said, "Draft an order."

"Yes." Feng Cheng didn't dare to delay, and immediately moved to the front of the case, hurriedly cleared the table and case, but accidentally knocked over the inkstone.

"Ah! Your Majesty! Villain, ah... no, I know I'm wrong... I know I'm wrong..."

"Trash!" Xu Zhaoping kicked Feng Cheng, "Xiao Xizi!"

"Yes!" The eunuch who followed Xu Zhaoping immediately went to the case and quickly laid out the scrolls, set up the inkstones and stones, and ground the ink.

Xu Zhaoping didn't look at Feng Cheng, who was prostrate at her feet, and went straight to the case, picked up the pen, and the pen was like a snake, with a small script in one hand.

After finishing writing, Xu Zhaoping looked at it for a long time, and felt that the brush was moving too fast, which was a bit unsightly, so he was also known as the eunuch and relaid the scroll.

Xu Zhaoping wrote the canonized imperial decree on one end, and Liang Qiongshi's sedan chair on the other end was also carried to the Qiandian Hall.

Seeing that the king was not at the door, the chief eunuch knew that he must have gone to court, so he ordered the young eunuch to slowly lower the sedan chair, intending to help Liang Qiongshi into the palace.However, before he could make a sound, he saw a crooked figure flashing in front of his eyes.

"Master Lu?" The eunuch looked at him for a long time and recognized the person.

As soon as Liang Qiongshi heard the eunuch call 'Lord Lu', she got up quickly and greeted him. Master Lu had a very high reputation in Qian Dynasty. The best of the bunch.

Master Lu didn't notice Liang Qiongshi, but just grabbed the eunuch's sleeve and said, "Eunuch, the Holy Majesty is crazy! Go and punish him!"

As soon as the big eunuch heard Mr. Lu said that the monarch was crazy, he immediately winked at the little eunuch beside him, and then walked aside with his arms around Mr. Lu, saying, "Ah, Mr. Lu, please speak slowly, what's wrong with your majesty?" ?"

"The Holy Majesty wants to marry that demon girl!" Master Lu cried out with snot and tears.

The eunuch faintly felt that Mr. Lu was going to do something bad, but he couldn't just kick him out. He was a first-rank official after all, so he had to follow Mr. Lu's words and ask, "Witch girl?"

"That's right! Liang Yuming raised a good daughter! What a good daughter! She actually thought of one maid and two husbands! There really is a Ru family, there is a Ru family! Cough cough cough..."

"Oh, my Lord Lu, please slow down. Miss Liang hasn't married yet!" The eunuch patted Lord Lu on the back to help him relax, then took another peek at Liang Qiongshi, worried Master Lu's words were heard by the Lord.

It doesn't matter if you don't glance at it, a glance at a figure makes the eunuch's whisk, which is tilted at the elbow, fall to the ground.Well, isn't that Miss Liang's father, Taifu Liang?

The great eunuch felt a chill down his spine, he was broken, he forgot that the Lord's tomb was located in Kun Palace, which was separated from Qian Palace by a wall.And Taifu Liang has been there for three days to mourn, and according to the time, it should be leaving today.If Miss Liang collided with Taifu and Master Lu... the eunuch turned around quickly and separated Master Lu from Taifu Liang.

But what he didn't expect was that Mr. Lu, who was crying in a mess just now, suddenly shouted out of anger, "Liang's surname is a man!"

In the main hall, a group of ministers knew that their king would come to court sooner or later from the eunuch's announcement, so they waited patiently.But unexpectedly, they waited for half an hour, and they didn't see their king until the sun was three.I thought that as soon as the king appeared, the dynasty would be over.But when their king spoke, it was as if a bolt of lightning had struck, shaking them so that they couldn't hear clearly.Because they heard Xu Zhaoping say, "Today I want to be a concubine!"

Is he going to be a concubine? There is no need to tell the concubine in court, because it is the king's private matter.But it fell on their king Xu Zhaoping, so it became necessary.There have always been two strange things in the Qian Dynasty. One is that there is a bachelor emperor in his 20s in the imperial city, and the other is that there is a crown princess who is in her 20s and has not yet married in the Liang Mansion.Before their kings ascended the throne, they kept swearing to the sky that they would not marry and have children in this life. The previous emperor had to establish another prince when the king was still a prince to ensure the royal ancestral hall.

The prime minister took the lead to congratulate, "It is really a blessing for all the people that the Holy Majesty is willing to bless you."

"Really?" Xu Zhaoping stood on the high steps without sitting down, "What if the widow wants to canonize a woman who has already been betrothed?"

"Impossible! Your Majesty!" Yu Shi quickly knelt down on the ground, "This trip will hinder His Majesty's great virtue. How can He De, a woman who is betrothed by others, get His Majesty's mercy?"

Xu Zhaoping was unmoved, she was never afraid of losing her virtue, what she was afraid of was that that person would be criticized.Thinking about the decree from six years ago, Xu Zhaoping took a breath, and said with a hint of anger, "You loves think that woman is unworthy, do you want no one to be born?"

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, must it be that woman?" The prime minister calmly looked straight into the king's eyes, waiting for Xu Zhaoping's reply.

Xu Zhaoping also looked back at the prime minister, slamming each word, "It's her."

"This..." Yu Shi frowned, and after thinking for a long time about whether Qing's reputation would be ruined or lost, he still said, "If the Holy One likes it, then... that's why."

After the censor passed, Xu Zhaoping turned his attention to the prime minister. "What about you, Prime Minister?"

Looking at Xu Zhaoping's eyes, the prime minister also felt the king's expectations, thinking about his own monarch who was still alone from a child to a young age, his heart softened, and he said, "The minister seconded the proposal."

"Okay!" Xu Zhaoping smiled, "Xiaoxizi, declare the decree!"

"Yes!" Xiaoxizi bowed, then opened the scroll, and said loudly, "Yuxi! The daughter of Taifu Liang Yuming is not worthy of my mother's training; if she has a gentle and prudent behavior, she will become a concubine by herself. She will follow the law and have a soft and gentle behavior... ...Thoughts are on being a virtuous person, Yigao's previous history used the book titled imperial concubine."

As soon as the decree was finished, another veteran stood up, "My lord, how can you canonize Prince Jing's wife!"

"How can you be considered a wife if you haven't been married?" Xu Zhaoping held back his temper and explained to the old minister again. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the canonization by force, but it will affect Liang Qiongshi's reputation as a concubine.

But the civil servants didn't seem to buy it, and the leading censor took the lead in attacking, "Your Majesty, marriage is a major matter, the order of parents, and the words of matchmakers. Both Prince Jing and Liang Yuming's daughter are prepared. How can there be too many?" Do something outrageous."
