The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

"I have decided to recognize Ruyue as my own daughter, and the emperor has agreed to this."

Liang Shulan knew that it was a great day and she couldn't spoil the fun.

So she quickly suppressed her sadness and waved her hands repeatedly, "This can't be done! You are the Queen Mother now, so many eyes are watching you, it's better not to cause trouble. Besides, the Emperor has just ascended the throne..."

Feng Han quickly interrupted her, "Alright, sister, this matter is settled! The imperial edict has been written, do you really want to take it back?"

Liang Shulan and Yu Ruyue were chatting happily with the Queen Mother.

The three men from Yu Dehou's family were talking with Shen Zhiheng.

It was only then that everyone realized their identities. They turned out to be the family of General Shen's wife. But was the emperor a little too fond of General Shen? He actually praised his wife's family so highly?

Most of the people present only learned about the emperor's death and the eldest prince's succession to the throne when they heard the funeral bell, so they didn't know what role Yu Ruyue played in it?

If it really works, then it means resurrection from the dead?

Soon, with the eunuch's shrill voice, everyone returned to their seats, and the banquet hosted by the new emperor officially began.

At the end of this banquet, many high-ranking officials and titles will appear!

Of course, this banquet was not just an ordinary banquet for promotions. After all, it was also to celebrate the new emperor's ascension to the throne, so everyone brought some gifts.

After the rewards are given out, everyone will flatter the emperor.

However, at the beginning, only some military generals were appointed.

Shen Zhiheng became a marquis because of his great contributions, and even his name was exactly the same as his name in another world!

Yu Ruyue was a little shocked when the word Wu'an came out. After all the twists and turns, she finally became the Marquis of Wu'an. However, she believed that even if the name remained the same, her future life would definitely be different.

Afterwards, he was given many official titles one after another.

Even Yu Shi and Yu Tian were given official positions, but unfortunately they were not very good at leading troops in battle, and they were not very strong in culture either.

But the two of them did make great contributions, so Yu Shi's rank of fifth-rank official and Yu Tian's rank of sixth-rank official were neither too high nor too low. As long as the two of them worked hard to improve themselves, they would be able to be promoted one day based on their own abilities.

The two of them naturally understood!

Now this official position has exceeded their imagination.

Even if they were dreaming, they would not dare to imagine that they would really become officials.

After all, for the past ten years or so, they have been trembling when they were questioned by the village chief!

However, both of them are now full of fighting spirit.

If it weren't for my sister and brother-in-law, I'm afraid they wouldn't have gotten such a high position! So I can't let them down!

After the imperial edict was distributed, everyone unfolded it and looked at the place where the imperial seal was signed, with strange expressions on their faces.

It’s not for any other reason, but the characters are really not good-looking.

But this is an imperial edict issued by the emperor. Even if it is not good-looking, who can say anything?

Qin Haowen sat there, taking in everyone's expressions. He especially found Yu Ruyue's nervousness amusing. He raised the last imperial edict in his hand and said, "Finally! My mother and I have some great news to share with you all."

Everyone looked at the last imperial edict in his hand, and various thoughts flashed through their minds.

Everyone was wondering, could it be an imperial decree to select a concubine?

Or does the new emperor already have a favorite candidate to be the empress?

All of a sudden, all the young ladies present who had no lovers sat up straight, looking at the young emperor sitting above with burning eyes.

They all heard that the new emperor was very chaste and there were very few women or even maids in the harem.

Although he was not as good-looking as General Shen, he was also very handsome. Coupled with his strong and sturdy body, everyone was eager to try.

I hope I can have this honor.

As a result, Qin Haowen did not look at the pairs of expectant eyes below, but instead fixed his gaze on Yu Ruyue!

"Mrs. Shen!"

Yu Ruyue immediately knelt in the center of the hall and kowtowed respectfully, "Your Highness is here!"

Everyone present looked at Yu Ruyue, Qin Haowen, and Shen Zhiheng.

They all had a bold idea in their minds: could it be that the little emperor started to snatch the concubines as soon as he sat on the throne?

Although this woman was indeed extremely beautiful, like a fairy from heaven, she already had a husband, and this husband had even made great contributions and had just been conferred the title of Marquis.

Is it true that the prerequisite for being conferred the title of Marquis is to give up one's wife?

Those who had wild thoughts immediately looked at Shen Zhiheng with disdain.

Some ministers were also thinking for a while about how to persuade the little emperor.

Although some people had forcibly abducted the minister's wife before, they all did it in private, and it was not easy to bring this thing out in the open. Although they also wanted the little emperor to have children quickly, there was no need to do it so quickly.

This time, Qin Haowen did not use the eunuch next to him to deliver the imperial edict. Instead, he spread out the imperial edict himself. Looking at the mark left by the jade seal on it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes were full of tenderness.

The ministers below who were good at observing people's words and expressions felt like they were struck by lightning.

Were they really guessed?

The little emperor's father just died, and he just ascended the throne. Is he going to cause all this mess?

"The Emperor, by the grace of Heaven and the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: My family is like the moon, endowed with beauty and grace, gentle and kind by nature, filial and respectful in the Imperial Court, benevolent and forgiving in the Imperial Court. Pray for rain from Heaven to relieve the drought in Qingtian Prefecture; present a divine artifact to repel the enemy and quell the unrest on the border."

"I promote you to the title of Princess Anguo, grant you the Nine-Di Crown, the Red Cloud Bridal Cap, a fief of 8,000 households, and the land of Qingtian Prefecture. In addition, I will reward you with: a green jade jade tablet with dragon pattern, a red sandalwood carriage inlaid with gold, and ten hu of East China Sea pearls!"

"You are hereby granted special permission to enter the palace wearing a sword, to be praised without being named, and to wear a black robe at the end of the year and to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth. I hope you will be cautious and diligent, and strive to emulate the virtue of Tai Ren. This announcement shall be made to the whole world, so that all may know."

These words made all the ministers present silent.

They really thought of all possibilities, but this was the only one they hadn't thought of.

Moreover, no matter which of these rewards is picked out individually, it is extremely shocking.

The Nine-Dihua Crown is the most ceremonial crown for a princess, and the Red Cloud Bridal Cap is only available to the empress. The fief of 8,000 households is outrageous, as only a first-rank prince can have a fief of 5,000 households!

A rosewood carriage painted in gold was only available to favored princes! Offering sacrifices to heaven and earth at the end of the year was a special honor only granted to the Queen Mother and the Empress. Entering the palace wearing a sword was even more special. From ancient times to the present, apart from the Regent who held the power to supervise the country, no one else had ever received such an honor!

Even the pearl of the East China Sea, which can reflect words at night, is just a very small addition here...

This was even more confusing to them than letting Yu Ruyue become the queen.

After all, when all these factors are added together, this woman's status is much higher than that of the queen!
