The regent princess is strong and cool, and the beautiful prince loves her every day
Chapter 65: Re-drafting the Imperial Decree of Marriage
Xiao Mochen felt that compared to his princess's scheming side, he still had room for improvement.
"Qingqing, I have to go to the palace for something. I will come to see you later." Xiao Mochen let go of Su Yueqing's hand and said softly.
"Okay, go and do your thing." Su Yueqing nodded obediently.
After watching Su Yueqing get on the carriage and leave, Xiao Mochen rode towards the palace.
royal palace.
"Uncle?" Xiao Jingzhan, who was reviewing memorials in the study, saw his uncle coming and a look of joy flashed across his face. "Why are you here?"
"Your Majesty, I'm here to ask you to take back the marriage decree." Xiao Mochen said lightly.
"What?" Xiao Jingzhan rubbed his ears and widened his eyes.
His uncle was in love with Miss Su some time ago. How come he changed his mind so quickly and wanted to cancel the engagement?
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingzhan secretly glanced up and looked at his uncle with contempt.
Although he respected his uncle, it was not right for him to play with a woman's feelings like this.
It was he who requested the marriage in the first place, and it is he who wants to cancel the engagement now!
How could Miss Su feel embarrassed? How could he face Song Wanning in the future?
No, why would he think of Song Wanning?
"Uncle, this is not a good thing." Xiao Jingzhan said in a low voice. He didn't dare to refute his uncle loudly, for he was afraid that his uncle would beat him.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Mochen asked, "This marriage decree has an unknown marriage partner, and this prince is not satisfied."
The imperial edict granting marriage stated that the wife was the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, not Su Yueqing, and he was very unhappy.
"Huh?" Xiao Jingzhan was confused again, "Didn't the emperor's uncle say that she was the daughter of the prime minister? How come the target is unknown again?"
"The Prime Minister's Mansion has more than one legitimate daughter, and I'm afraid someone will replace the prince with a cat." Xiao Mochen said lightly. Ever since Bai Shao filed a complaint, Xiao Mochen felt it necessary to draft a new decree of marriage.
Only in this way can some people stop having inappropriate thoughts.
Li Xueruo and Su Yueyao, who were recuperating in the Prime Minister's Mansion, said that ever since they knew that Su Yueqing was the Regent's Achilles' heel, they had given up the idea of taking advantage of the Regent.
"Uncle, are you talking about the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Su Yueyao?" Xiao Jingzhan asked in confusion, "Didn't she fear the Emperor's uncle's cruelty at first and refused to marry him no matter what? Why does she want to marry him now?"
"She is mentally ill." Xiao Mochen said coldly.
Xiao Jingzhan felt that the emperor's uncle had become much ruder after spending so much time with Miss Su.
"Okay then, I'll write another marriage decree for my uncle." Xiao Jingzhan said, and signaled the eunuch beside him to grind ink and start writing.
"Write two copies." Xiao Mochen interrupted.
"Huh?" Xiao Jingzhan was puzzled.
"One copy will be sent to the Song residence, and one copy will be sent to the Xiang residence."
Xiao Mochen just wanted to tell those people in the Prime Minister's Mansion clearly and announce to the capital that his princess could only be Su Yueqing.
"Oh oh." Xiao Jingzhan nodded obediently.
After writing, Xiao Jingzhan took out the jade seal and stamped it.
"The one from the Song Mansion will be delivered personally by the prince, and the one from the Prime Minister's Mansion will be delivered by the emperor with dignity, to emphasize that the one the prince wants to marry is Princess Anping Su Yueqing, Miss Song Su Yueqing, not his daughter from the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Now that Qingqing wants to sever ties with the Prime Minister's Mansion, he must follow suit.
"Little Li, you go and deliver this imperial decree from the Prime Minister's Mansion." Xiao Jingzhan looked at the personal eunuch, "At the same time, take back my previous decree of marriage."
"I remember that I gave many things to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I will take them back as well."
"Yes."
Although Eunuch Li is young, he grew up with Xiao Jingzhan and is respected by everyone in the palace.
Even ministers of the previous dynasty had to give him some face when they met him.
It would be most appropriate to send him to announce the decree.
Xiao Mochen looked at the emperor with admiration, then took the imperial edict and left the palace, heading towards the Song Mansion.
At this time, Su Yueqing, who had returned to the Song Mansion, was leisurely calculating the deeds of thirty shops.
She gave ten shops to her aunt, ten shops to Song Wanning, and Su Yueqing kept the last ten for herself.
She had just taken over the shop and those people were definitely not convinced, so she had to find a time to establish her authority.
Those who are willing to stay will not be treated unfairly, while those who are unwilling to stay and find fault will be unemployed.
In this way, it will be easier to take care of my aunt and An Ning in the future. I will feel more at ease knowing that I have money on hand.
Liu Qi and Song Wanning looked at the stack of store deeds in their hands and were flattered. "Qingqing, tell your aunt the truth, did you go to rob?"
"My aunt is smart. She got all the money from the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Su Yueqing said bluntly.
When Liu Qi heard that they were extorting money from the Prime Minister's Mansion, the worry on her face immediately disappeared, and she smiled instead, "That's good, it's okay to rob the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Su Yueqing couldn't help laughing out loud as she watched her aunt's expression change like flipping a book.
It seems that the Xiang Mansion and the Song Mansion are really in a state of hatred between each other, and the fight will not stop until one side dies.
Song Wanning looked at the shop in her hands with great satisfaction, and her admiration for Su Yueqing increased even more. In the future, she would definitely cling to her cousin's thigh and become a qualified and excellent lackey.
"Madam, Miss, the Regent has arrived and is waiting in the front hall." The maid came hurriedly to report.
"Your Majesty?" Su Yueqing looked puzzled. "Didn't you go to the palace? Why are you back?"
Song Wanning pushed Su Yueqing and said, "Cousin, what are you mumbling about? Let's go to the front hall."
"Yeah." Su Yueqing didn't think about it any more. She would know when she got there anyway.
In the front hall, General Song and Song Lin were greeting the Regent.
"Have the old general's eyes recovered?" Xiao Mochen saw that General Song's eyes were bright and sharp, and guessed that Qingqing must have cured his eyes.
"Thank you for your concern, Regent. Everything is fine now." General Song said calmly.
Afterwards, Xiao Mochen took another look at Song Lin's legs, thinking to himself that Song Lin's legs must be close to standing up.
It seems that he will have to ask the emperor to visit him in person in a few days and ask General Song to fill the vacancy of Marquis Wu'an.
Wait until Song Lin’s leg heals, and then let Song Lin take over General Song’s position.
Firstly, General Song and Song Lin are loyal and are rare generals in Beiming. If they can return, it will be a great joy for Beiming.
Secondly, he also had selfish motives. The Song Mansion was Qingqing's home, and if Qingqing protected it, he would also protect it.
Moreover, if the Song family rises, Qingqing will have one more backer, and she will definitely not be able to tolerate any injustice.
Of course, even if she didn't have anyone to back her up, with Qingqing's ability, it would be others who would suffer the injustice.
"Your Majesty?" Su Yueqing went to the front hall and saw Xiao Mochen, and said, "Didn't you go to the palace? Why are you back so soon?"
When Xiao Mochen saw Su Yueqing, a gentle smile appeared on his originally stern face, and he said softly: "I will ask the emperor to re-draft the imperial decree to grant marriage."
As he spoke, Xiao Mochen took out the imperial decree granting marriage and displayed it in public for Su Yueqing to see.
When General Song and his companions saw the golden imperial edict, they hurriedly knelt down to receive it.
Seeing this, Xiao Mochen put the imperial edict in Su Yueqing's hand, and quickly helped General Song up, "General, you don't have to be polite. We are all family in the future. You are Qingqing's grandfather, and you are also my elder."
"You don't have to kneel." Xiao Mochen said, looking at the others and motioning them to stand up.
"Yes."
General Song was flattered. The regent of the current dynasty actually called himself his junior?
It seems that the Regent really has a special affection for Qingqing, and he feels relieved to hand Qingqing over to him.
Su Yueqing looked at the imperial edict in her hand, which praised her to the highest level.
The most important thing is that according to the imperial edict granting marriage, her identity is Princess Anping, the daughter of the Song family, not the legitimate daughter of the prime minister.
In other words, when she gets married in the future, she will have nothing to do with the prime minister's mansion.
Su Yueqing was touched. She didn't expect that just as she was about to sever ties with the Prime Minister's Mansion, the prince would ask for a new imperial decree to grant marriage.
Everyone in the Song family was very relieved when they knew that Su Yueqing would be able to marry out of the Song family as a young lady in the future.
On the other side, everyone in the Prime Minister’s Mansion held their breath and felt pain in their flesh again.
It would be fine to revoke the imperial decree granting marriage and read out the imperial decree granting marriage to the Regent and Su Yueqing again, but why is the emperor so stingy that he actually wants to take back the previous reward?
This is all the property left in the Prime Minister's Mansion now. The previous rewards had long been lost. They could only make up for it with other things, and they directly emptied half of the warehouse.
This was really like adding insult to injury, and they became even poorer.
After Eunuch Li got back all the rewards, he led his men to the Song Mansion in a grand manner and moved all the rewards into the Song Mansion.
The emperor has instructed that the collected rewards do not need to be transported to the palace, but can be moved directly to the Song Mansion.
Su Yueqing looked at the rewards all over the yard and smiled from ear to ear.
She was excited just thinking about going to the Prime Minister's Mansion tonight and making some more money.
