After reading my mind, my mother and my sisters went crazy

Upon hearing this, everyone who was eating from the pot was shocked.

"Oh no! Is it an imperial edict?" Jiang Xinling covered her mouth in fear with her hand that was chewing the skewers.

"Could it be that some second-generation rich kid went to the emperor and asked for an imperial decree?" Jiang Xinling guessed.

"No..." Jiang Wanyue thought for a moment, then opened her eyes and smiled.

Since ancient times, no noble family dared to ask the emperor to order them to take concubines.

Therefore, we can rule out the second-generation rich people who have been jumping around in Beijing these days.

Then... there is only one truth.

Jiang Wanyue smiled.

He quickly reminded everyone to tidy up their appearance and go to receive the order.

"In compliance with the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Jiang Xiaoyao's granddaughter Jiang Yuyao is of outstanding appearance, gentle and generous, and is a perfect match for Crown Prince Murong Ye. The Empress and I are very pleased to hear this, and are hereby canonizing her as Crown Princess to rectify her name and make her known to the world."

"All ceremonies will be handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory. Choose an auspicious day to hold the enthronement ceremony. I decree this!"

The eunuch read the imperial edict in one breath, took a breath, took the tea that Jiang Qingqing had someone bring, drank it all, then took the bulging purse handed to him by Nanny Tang, and his old face suddenly smiled like a chrysanthemum.

"Thank you, ma'am. You are a blessed woman." The old eunuch complimented hurriedly.

"Madam, when I was leaving the palace, I encountered people from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory entering the palace. I guess they came to discuss this matter."

"It's just... on the way here, I heard that the old lady of the former Xuanping Marquis's Mansion had died? Is it true?"

The old eunuch accepted Jiang Qingqing's kindness and became more talkative.

"Yeah," Jiang Qingqing nodded and replied seriously.

"Thank you for your concern, eunuch. The old lady passed away the night before yesterday, and I helped collect the body yesterday morning."

"Well, then...then the wedding date will probably have to be delayed!" the eunuch said with regret upon hearing this.

I thought to myself: This damn old woman died at a really bad time.

According to the rules of Xuanlong Kingdom, if someone dies in the family, the immediate family members must observe mourning for three years and no happy events can be held within three years.

Although Jiang Qingqing divorced, her five daughters were also removed from the Jiang family tree.

Although one does not have to observe a three-year mourning period, the marriage of one's children will need to be postponed.

"Hey, look at my mouth!" After the words came out, the old eunuch realized that he had been talking too much, and quickly slapped himself symbolically and laughed.

"It's okay, it's okay, good things take time, good things take time."

"The Crown Prince and Miss Jiang are a perfect match, destined to be together. It just took a little longer."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingqing hurried forward to greet him. Before leaving, she asked Nanny Tang to hand a big red envelope to the eunuch who announced the decree.

……

Jiang Yuyao held the bright yellow brocade imperial edict for a long time until the eunuch who announced the decree walked away.

She, she, was named the Crown Princess?

Could she be dreaming?

Jiang Yuyao pinched herself belatedly.

Hiss~It hurts so much!

Not dreaming!

【Wow, imperial edict, imperial edict! 】

[This was something the Crown Prince's brother-in-law had to fight for, even at the cost of openly turning against the Emperor. Tsk tsk~]

[The prince's brother-in-law's move is probably to severely slap the bets made against the eldest sister in the gambling house and teahouse in the city recently.]

[Hey, the prince's brother-in-law is domineering and protecting his wife online! Wow~ I'm really happy! ]

……

At this moment, in a remote house.

"Miss, everything has been done as you requested. You should hurry up and go back south with the master to avoid any more trouble."

A man dressed like a guard bowed to the woman with a white hat brim sitting beside the stone table, with a hint of worry in his words.

"Do I need you to teach me how to do things? Get out of here!"

Hearing this, the woman lifted the brim of her white hat, revealing that familiar, hateful face.

It was Zhao Mingyue.

However, in just a few days, Zhao Mingyue's face turned pale, and with the enchanting bright red lipstick on her face, she looked like an evil ghost coming to take her life.

"Listen, I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving anywhere!"

"I haven't witnessed Jiang Yuyao's downfall with my own eyes. Haha, I can't leave! How can I leave?"

Zhao Mingyue laughed crazily, looking like a madman.

That’s right, these days, she was the one who secretly set up all the gambling houses, teahouses and restaurants, and ordered people to spread the word about Jiang Yuyao.

Doesn’t Jiang Yuyao want to be in the spotlight?

Don’t you want to marry into the royal family?

She wanted to see herself being involved in such a turmoil and becoming the topic of conversation among all kinds of people.

She just didn't believe that such a situation would not stop Murong Ye from wanting to marry Jiang Yuyao.

Zhao Mingyue sneered, her eyes full of hatred and madness.

"If I can't get it, no one else can get it!"

……

"Bang!" Almost at the same time, the gate of the yard was kicked open by someone.

A group of people came in one after another and lined up neatly on both sides.

Zhao Mingyue's gaze was fixed on the man in the lead.

He, wearing a moon-white long gown and a sky-blue brocade robe with down feathers on the outside, bumped into Zhao Mingyue's sight in the snowy wind.

"Brother Ye, Brother Ye..."

"You're here, you're finally here."

"You came to see me, right? You can't bear to leave me, right?"

Zhao Mingyue was overjoyed. Ever since what happened at the New Year's banquet, her innocence was completely lost and the Zhao family was ordered to leave the capital. She had tried to write to Murong Ye again and again.

The content of the letter was fiery and bold.

Unfortunately, the letters fell into oblivion and no response was received.

Now that she could see Murong Ye coming to see her with her own eyes, Zhao Mingyue was undoubtedly ecstatic.

She quickly took off the brim of her hat, pinched the hem of her skirt with both hands, put on what she thought was the most beautiful smile, and ran towards Murong Ye in a coquettish voice.

"Let her go!" Murong Ye ordered without even raising his eyelids.

"Bang!" Hearing the order from his master, Ye Qing took a step forward and kicked Zhao Mingyue who was rushing towards him away.

"Ah~" The joy on Zhao Mingyue's face froze, and the next moment, the whole person was kicked dozens of feet away.

"Puff~" She suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and her whole body became weak.

"Why? Didn't you come to see me because you read the letter I wrote to you?"

Zhao Mingyue was traumatized and cried bitterly.

"How dare you! How dare you dream like that! You covet our Highness!" Ye Qing shouted.

"I'll burn all your letters. You don't even know what kind of moral character you have. You dare to try to touch our highness. You are really tired of living!"

Seeing that Zhao Mingyue refused to change her ways, Ye Qing could not help but yell at him angrily.

Murong Ye frowned and glanced at Zhao Mingyue with disgust.

Zhao Mingyue's heart felt like it was sinking into an icy cave...

"Hahaha, haha~ Murong Ye, I have liked you for many years, but you treat me like a monster?"

"You are the night sky, and I am the bright moon beneath the night sky. You and I are meant to be a couple!"

"Why, why do you have to like that little bitch Jiang Yuyao?"

"How am I, Zhao Mingyue, inferior to her?!"

Zhao Mingyue cried and laughed at the same time. Between the lines, there seemed to be accusations and complaints, but more of it was unwillingness...
