Jiang Chuan and Xiu Wen came to the study and wrote down the news that Eunuch An would arrive in the mountain village tomorrow, as well as all the preparations for receiving the imperial edict, in a letter. They told Jiang Qi to rush to the village overnight and give it to me.

Jiang Qi did not dare to delay, and immediately set out after receiving the letter, staying up all night, and arrived in front of the mansion before it was completely light. A crackling knock on the door woke up Chuqi who was sleeping.

He jumped out of bed and quickly reached the gate of the yard.

When I opened the gate, I saw Jiang Qi, who looked tired, standing outside the gate, leading a horse.

Jiang Qi said in a hoarse voice, "I have something important to see Madam Yun."

Chuqi quickly let Jiang Qi into the yard, turned around and closed the gate, and brought Jiang Qi to my small yard, just in time to see me walking out of the gate. So he pointed at me and said to Jiang Qi, "It's there, go find it yourself!"

Jiang Qi didn't argue with Chu Qi; "Madam Yun, the young master has a letter."

I had just gotten up, so I couldn't see clearly. It wasn't very bright outside, and when Jiang Qi called me, I realized that I wasn't from the mansion.

Jiang Qi handed me the letter; "Young Master, the matters concerning the imperial edict are of great importance, so take them seriously. If there is anything you don't understand, you can consult Uncle Mo and the others, and they will do it for you."

After reading the letter, I was surprised to realize that the ancient imperial power is actually around us. We can't go back to the present, so we can only take this moment seriously.

Jiang Qi saw that I was a little stunned. Without saying much, he bowed to me, turned around and walked out in the direction where Uncle Mo and his family lived.

I was a little depressed. Someone from the palace is coming! Something that would never happen in modern times is happening right in front of me.

Uncle Mo and the others arrived faster than I thought.

Seeing me sitting in silence in the main hall, he seemed a little confused.

"Uncle Mo, Uncle Wu, please sit down! Jiang Qi, don't just stand there like an idiot. Just say whatever you want to say."

"Madam Yun, the imperial edict may arrive this afternoon. First of all, you must be prepared. This is to avoid being in a hurry at the time. It would be very dangerous to be accused of neglecting the imperial edict." Uncle Mo reminded earnestly.

I calmed down and knew that this matter needed to be taken seriously and not be careless at all.

"Uncle Mo, I don't understand these things either. I may need your help. Receiving the imperial edict is a big deal, I'm afraid it's not just my job. Let's call the head of the village and the clan leader first. Chuqi, don't stand at the door. Be quick and help me call Liu Niang first, and then go to the village to invite the clan leader and the head of the village to come and discuss together."

Chuqi outside the door flashed faintly and then disappeared.

After a while, Su Chen and Liu Niang arrived first. Then the clan leader and the village head also rushed over, sweating profusely and without even putting on their shoes. Their usual steady image as patriarchs was completely gone. With that look, those legs, and that speed, it was no exaggeration to say that they were teenagers of seventeen or eighteen.

As soon as he entered the room, he asked anxiously, trembling, "Da Lang's wife, there is, there is, there is an imperial edict, is it coming?"

Seeing their excited expressions, I began to wonder if these two old guys would faint when they received the imperial edict.

I held back my laughter, took out the letter Jiangchuan sent me, and waited for them to finish reading the letter one by one.

"Great joy, great joy. We are the only one in the surrounding area that can receive the imperial edict. We must treat it with caution." The two old men became even more excited after reading the letter.

Uncle Mo has seen a lot and is relatively calm. "Mrs. Yun, the imperial envoys who came to announce the decree came from afar with rewards, and there are quite a few of them. There are 20 people. They will definitely rest here, eat and stay, and everything they need must be prepared.

"Please prepare more rice, grain, vegetables, and meat in the house, so that you don't run out of food when the time comes. Also, prepare the incense table in advance. Because we don't know how long we will stay here. Whether it will be one day or three or five days, it is unknown."

Everyone finally decided that Su Chen would take Chuqi and the others to buy supplies and food.

A pair of red candles, several kinds of fruit and snacks, and an incense table for receiving imperial edicts.

Two pigs, 500 kilograms of rice, 20 chickens, 20 ducks, 50 kilograms of fish, and other miscellaneous things. I bought everything that needed to be bought.

There was no way out. According to the tribe leader, this was a great event and the whole village had to prepare a banquet. They were particularly insistent and there was no room for me to object.

Thinking that the house was almost finished, he decided to prepare a feast and treat the whole village to a meal. This would also be a way of thanking the villagers for their help, so he agreed.

At noon, Su Chen and his team finally bought all the things, and started working in the afternoon in a hurry, killing and cleaning up all the chickens, ducks, fish and pigs.

This is to avoid people being overwhelmed and unable to handle everything when they arrive.

The entire mansion was filled with people talking excitedly and waiting busily and excitedly for the arrival of these people.
