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

When Fan Yu heard that someone from the imperial court had come, he thought that tomorrow would be the day for His Highness to receive the hairpin-adding ceremony, and he immediately understood the reason.

"Quickly notify the housekeeper and ask her to notify His Highness."

As Fan Yu spoke, he quickly washed, combed his hair, straightened his clothes, and then went to the door.

The doorman hurried to inform the butler Fan Min.

Fan Min had gotten up early and had arranged for people to go out and buy things.

After hearing the news from the doorman, he hurried to the main courtyard.

When they arrived at the main courtyard gate, they asked the old servant guarding the gate to call the secretary over.

The secretary had already gotten up and was waiting to help Xiao Ziran wash up.

When he heard that Fan Min was looking for him, he didn't dare to delay and came out quickly.

"Master Xiao Fan, why are you so anxious to find the captive servant? Is there something wrong?"

"Young Master Shishu, go and wake His Highness up. The imperial envoy has arrived and is waiting."

When the secretary heard that someone from the court was coming, he hurried in.

In the dormitory, Xiao Ziran has woken up.

He is afraid of cold and his hands and feet are cold.

This is also related to his poor health.

Zhong Ruhuang is a martial artist and a master of martial arts. He is not afraid of the cold and always feels warm.

At this moment, he was reluctant to leave the warm bed.

"Master, are you awake?"

The secretary asked in a low voice at the door of the inner room.

Xiao Ziluan lazily responded: "What's wrong?"

"Master, an imperial envoy has arrived from the imperial court."

These words made Xiao Ziran serious again.

"Your Highness."

He shouted softly a few times.

Zhong Ruhuang opened her eyes sleepily and rubbed them.

"what happened?"

"Your Highness, someone from the imperial court has arrived."

Zhong Ruhuang sat up after hearing this.

"Who's coming?"

"Your Highness, Master Xiao Fan didn't say anything."

Xiao Ziran quickly got up and helped Zhong Ruhuang put on her clothes.

The secretary also brought people in to help with washing.

After a while, the wife and husband had packed up.

"Go and inform Consort Hui, Consort Xuan, Consort Bai, Consort Nongyu, and Consort Mo to come and receive the order. As for Consort Su Wu, let him stay in bed and don't make any more trouble."

Zhong Ruhuang said this as she walked out of the room.

Xiao Ziran followed him out.

The whole family must go to receive the order.

Unless there are special circumstances.

In the front yard, Fan Yu had already invited Zhang Ji and the others into the hall and had served them hot tea and snacks.

Zhang Ji arrived in the middle of the night. It was quiet and there was no one around, so he stayed on the boat for the night without doing anything.

Before daybreak, she got off the boat and headed for the palace.

His Highness's coming-of-age ceremony was approaching, and she was very anxious, fearing that she would miss the task and then have a hard time explaining herself.

The Fifth Prince is no longer the same Fifth Prince as before.

Even if he is not favored by His Majesty, he is now a powerful prince guarding the pass, with more than 200,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

So she had to deliver His Majesty's order as soon as possible and preside over the coming-of-age ceremony.

As for showing off to be the mother-in-law?

She wouldn't dare.

She is just a concubine's mother-in-law, not a real mother-in-law.

Zhong Ruhuang brought Xiao Ziran into the hall.

"It turns out to be the Duke. I am sorry for the insolence."

Zhong Ruhuang said politely.

Zhang Ji bowed and saluted: "Your humble servant greets His Majesty King Wu."

"My lord, you're welcome."

Both sides spoke politely.

Fan Yu had already had the incense table set up.

Just waiting for everyone in the backyard to come and receive the order together.

Zhang Yufeng was the first to arrive, holding the hand of his personal attendant Shi Hua.

Then came Sun Pannu, who was four months pregnant, holding Lu Jian's hand.

The next one came was Bai Songying, who came with his short servant Lu Zhu.

Nongyu, with a five-month-old belly, also came, holding the hand of her personal attendant Chu Er.

Mo Ruxian was the last one to arrive. Judging from his sleepy eyes, he probably hasn't woken up yet.

Qingyun supported him and quickly knelt behind Bai Songying.

Zhong Ruhuang was kneeling in the front, and Xiao Ziran was kneeling half a step behind her.

Nanyue had the lowest rank, so she knelt at the end.

But his big belly is also the most conspicuous.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhang Ji began to announce the decree.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: There is now the fifth princess, Zhong Ruhuang, who has a gentle temperament and is old enough to wear a hairpin. I am very pleased and have given her a name. I have ordered Duke Zhang Ji of Cheng'en to hold a hairpin-wearing ceremony for the fifth princess and bestow other rewards..."

I wrote a lot of things in a very eloquent way, and there are many rewards alone.

Zhong Ruhuang listened with a respectful expression, and felt relieved when she heard that Emperor Showa had given her a name.

Fortunately, her mother still remembered her.

"I accept your order and thank you."

Zhong Ruhuang took the imperial edict and kowtowed respectfully.

Then she stood up.

Zhang Ji smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness."

Zhong Ruhuang said politely, "Your Excellency, you have worked hard. I will trouble you again tomorrow."

"No, it is my humble servant's honor to hold the hairpin-adding ceremony for Your Highness."

Everyone carries the sedan chair.

The two exchanged polite words.

Zhang Ji also gave the things that Qian and Sun Liu had packed to Zhang Rufeng and Sun Pannu.

Also given to them were letters written by Qian and Sun Liu.

As the male relatives, Xiao Ziran and his companions returned to the backyard after receiving the imperial edict.

Zhang Ji looked at the abdomens of Sun Pannu and Nong Yu.

Sun Pannu did not write a letter to tell Sun Liushi the news of her pregnancy, so Zhang Ji did not know about it before he came.

As for Nanyue, I know even less about her.

Zhong Ruhuang felt a little strange. It was ok for Zhang Ji to bring something to Zhang Lufeng, but why did he bring something to Sun Pannu as well?

Is the Cheng'en Mansion still related to the Sun family?

The two of them had finished their business and were chatting.

Zhong Ruhuang was curious and asked.

Zhang Ji was silent for a moment after hearing this.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has decreed that widows can marry a second time."

"so……"

"So I fell in love with Sun Liu, the father of your Highness's concubine, and asked Your Majesty to grant me marriage with the courtesy of a commoner, and I married him..."

"puff……"

Zhong Ruhuang was drinking tea. When she heard Zhang Ji's words, she choked and started coughing.

So, her two concubines became a family?

These two became half brothers?

Zhong Ruhuang coughed a few times before stopping. Then she heard Zhang Ji continue, "My humble wife, Sun Liu, has been pregnant for more than two months."

Zhong Ruhuang: ………

Isn't that about the same size as the baby in Su Wu's belly?

She was somewhat surprised by the news.

After a moment of silence, Zhong Ruhuang uttered a few words: "Congratulations, Your Excellency the Duke."

What else could she say.

This kind of thing is something that both of you are willing to do, and she has no right to interfere.

Zhang Ji looked carefully and did not see any disgust on Zhong Ruhuang's face, only surprise.

Just don't hate it.

The two chatted for a few more sentences in an awkward manner. After the guest house was cleaned up, Zhang Ji went to rest.

After Zhang Ji left, Zhong Ruhuang couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows.

"What does this mean?"

She proposed that a widow remarry in order to increase the population, but who would have thought that it would also allow her two concubines to become even closer to each other. This was really outrageous.

Don’t Sun Liu dislike Zhang Ji?

Zhang Ji has many daughters and many men, what's the point of marrying her?

Because of her high status?

Maybe.

In the backyard, Zhang Yufeng and Sun Pannu were reading letters.
