I became an official of the imperial court by eating melons when I was still a baby

Chapter 15 I'm still breastfeeding! How come I became an official?

Early the next morning, a carriage carrying Liu and her son slowly drove out of the capital.

Qin Yue was woken up by hunger. She hadn't had milk since her meal yesterday evening, so she was woken up by hunger.

"Yiyiya..." Qin Yue shouted, and in her heart she was also shouting, [Ah, I'm so hungry! Mom, come quickly, your dear baby is starving to death! ]

Mrs. Lu, who was having breakfast in the outer room, couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. How could she die from skipping a meal? It was really... She shook her head, washed her hands with a towel, got up and walked into the inner room, picked up Qin Yue, and started feeding her.

After a hearty meal, Qin Yue called out to the system in her mind: [Sister, I don’t know if I can go out today. I may not have any melons to eat. Oh, I wish I could talk someday, so that I can ask my mother to take me out.]

System: [Host, you don't have to go out today to eat some gossip, and it's related to you.]

Qin Yue: [Ga? ?]

Just when Qin Yue wanted to continue asking, a hearty laugh came from outside the door.

As the sound got closer, three figures appeared in front of Qin Yue and her son.

The people who came were the Qin family's master, Qin's old lady and Qin Qin.

"My sister Yue has woken up. Grandma hasn't seen my little lucky girl all night, but she missed me so much. Let her see her!"

Old Madam Qin hugged Qin Yue before the Qin father and son, holding her in her arms and calling her "sweetheart" with a look of happiness on her face.

The Qin father and son were overtaken by it, but they were not angry. They each poked Qin Yue's cheeks with one hand, leaving a red mark, and then they laughed.

Madam Qin, Mrs. Lu: ...

Qin Yue: I am too tired to complain. You two adults are so shameless that you enjoy poking the baby...

After teasing Qin Yue for a while, Qin Qin walked to the dining table, sat down, and began to eat voraciously.

Seeing his expression, Mrs. Lu quickly said, "Husband, eat slowly, eat slowly! No one is going to snatch the food from you! Really, you are such a grown-up, and you are still eating in front of the child. You should restrain yourself a little, you don't act like a father!"

As Lu spoke, she looked at Qin Qin with disdain, but her hands did not stop moving, constantly putting Qin Qin's favorite breakfast in front of him.

"Hey, Madam, what's the big deal! You shouldn't be so reserved in front of your own daughter. Maybe if Sister Yue sees me eating so generously, she will eat more in the future!" Qin Qin said as he chewed with rice in his mouth.

Seeing that he was also very hungry, Mrs. Lu stopped scolding him.

He got up early this morning and no one knew where he went.

Mrs. Lu then asked, "You went out so early in the morning. Is there something going on? You are in such a hurry."

Hearing this, Mr. Qin and his wife turned their heads and looked at Qin Qin in confusion.

Qin Qin raised his face from the rice bowl, first gave Master Qin a look that said "you know", and then said: "Today there is a big happy event, I went to prepare firecrackers and other things early in the morning, and then set them off at the door, lively and festive!"

Master Qin received Qin Qin's gaze and immediately realized what was going on. He stroked his beard and nodded in agreement, "Qin Er is very thoughtful. We should prepare some things to celebrate!"

Madam Qin and Mrs. Lu were both confused. Listening to the two gentlemen talking in unison, they didn't understand what happy event they were talking about.

Madam Qin asked, "You two, father and son, please stop playing dumb here and tell me what happy news is coming."

Mrs. Lu also hurriedly asked, "Yes, don't hide it. If you have any good news, tell us so that we can be happy together!"

The Qin family's father and son exchanged glances in the air, as if they were discussing who should speak up about this matter. In the end, it seemed that Qin Qin won the eye battle.

Qin Qin coughed heavily and was about to speak.

At this time, Butler Wang rushed in in a panic and hurriedly reported: "Master, old lady, eldest son, eldest lady, someone else has come to the palace!"

"The eunuch from last time is here again. He is now standing at the gate of the Qin family, holding an imperial edict in his hand, and a long list of rewards is following him, all the way to the end of Huailiu Street!"

The four members of the Qin family were all stunned when they heard this, then they reacted and hurried towards the gate.

As Master Qin walked, he instructed Steward Wang: "Standard Wang, quickly gather everyone in the mansion and prepare the incense table!"

"Yes, sir!" Butler Wang answered loudly and hurried to do his work.

When the Qin family arrived at the gate of the mansion, the gate was already crowded with people, all of whom were curiously poking their heads inside.

What did the Qin family do to deserve an imperial decree?

"Eunuch Li, thank you for taking this trip. You must have had some hard time on the way. Why don't you sit inside for a while and come back to announce the decree once everything is ready?" Master Qin walked up to Eunuch Li and asked with a bow.

Eunuch Li smiled and looked at the Qin family, and said politely, "Master Qin, you are too polite! This is all our responsibility, so why should we say it is hard work? In addition, His Majesty specifically ordered that the decree must be announced at the Qin family's mansion gate, so we will wait here."

"Since His Majesty has given the order, please wait for a moment, Eunuch Li."

After a while, everyone in the Qin Mansion gathered at the gate and stood in a neat row.

All necessary items such as the incense table are also ready.

Eunuch Li held Huang Ling in his hands and shouted in front of everyone: "The Qin family accepts the order!"

Master Qin immediately led the entire Qin family to kneel down and shout, "Long live the king!"

The people watching around also instantly quieted down and waited quietly for the decree.

Eunuch Li opened the imperial edict and read aloud: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Since the founding of the Southern Dynasty, the Qin family has served as the emperor's successor, and later quelled civil strife and stabilized the frontiers, making countless contributions. They can be said to be a family of righteous men. Over the past hundred years, the Qin family has been generous and charitable, and has generously donated money to help the court with disaster relief many times. They can be said to be a family of good deeds."

"Now that Qin Yue, the lucky daughter of the Qin family, has been born, the curse of the Qin family has been broken and they will return to the court. I hereby appoint Qin Zheng as the fourth-rank imperial attendant, Qin Qin as the fourth-rank deputy commander of the imperial guards, Yu as the second-rank imperial lady, and Lu as the third-rank imperial lady. I hope the Qin family will not forget the glory of their ancestors and revive the Qin family's honor! I decree this!"

"We, the common people, obey your command and thank you for your grace!" The four people of the Qin family bowed their heads respectfully and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Master Qin carefully stretched out his hands to take the imperial edict and was about to stand up.

"Master Qin, please wait a moment." Eunuch Li spoke up to stop Master Qin from getting up.

Master Qin looked at Eunuch Li in confusion.

Eunuch Li took out another imperial edict from his sleeve and said slowly, "There is another imperial edict."

Without waiting for Master Qin to ask again, Eunuch Li shouted again: "The Qin family has received another decree!"

The people around were all shocked when they heard this. There were actually two imperial edicts! Is there anyone else in the Qin family who wants to be rewarded?

The Qin family knelt down again and shouted: "Long live, long live, long live!"

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Qin Yue, the daughter of the Qin family, is blessed with long-lasting fortune and a kind heart. She is granted the title of Princess Fu'an, with a fief of 3,000. She is also appointed as a fifth-rank imperial official, with the right to enter and leave the palace freely, and is granted 1,000 taels of gold and a pair of jade ruyi... I decree this!"

Qin Yue: Huh? ?

Everyone: Huh? ?

System: [Host, this is the melon about you! ]
