Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

An imperial edict has arrived from the palace!

When the news reached the inner courtyard, the entire Jing'an Marquis Mansion was in chaos, and everyone was washing and changing clothes.

By the time the second messenger rushed into the Songhe Hall courtyard, all the female members of the family had already changed into their most luxurious clothes and were waiting at the main entrance of the Songhe Hall, waiting for Old Madam Xie. Of course, with the exception of Jiang Muxue and Xie Qingli, mother and daughter, no one else was notified at Old Madam Xie's instruction.

Old Madam Xie was wearing an elaborate and luxurious dress. Supported by An and Qin Bitong, she walked out of the room slowly. Her aura was like that of the graceful and elegant Empress Dowager!

The messenger hurriedly knelt before Old Madam Xie and said loudly, "Old Madam, the Marquis has ordered all the masters to go to the front yard to receive his orders. He also told the eldest lady to go and dress formally!"

When Mrs. Xie heard what the servant said, her eyes flashed with great surprise. Jing Yuan would not say such a thing for no reason. It must be something good that happened!

But she looked around but couldn't find Xie Qingyao, so she asked, "Isn't Yao'er here?"

Since the day Aunt Hua exposed her past, Xie Qingyao had been listless, as if her soul had been taken away overnight. She even took several days off from her favorite poetry and etiquette classes.

She used to love being in the spotlight and enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, but now she feels a little inferior in her heart. The Song family blood flowing in her body has become an indelible mark on her.

At this moment, Xie Qingyao was wearing a light-colored casual dress, with her head down, blending into the end of the crowd. She was a little daydreaming and did not hear Madam Xie's question.

Aunt Hua stood beside Xie Qingyao, her brows slightly furrowed. This granddaughter was really unworthy of such a big responsibility. It was a waste of her years of caring for her! She gently pushed Xie Qingyao, and when Xie Qingyao came back to her senses, she realized that everyone was looking at her.

When Old Madam Xie saw Xie Qingyao, she smiled lovingly. She extended her hand and said softly, "Yao'er, come to Grandma quickly."

Xie Qingyao glanced back at Aunt Hua, who gave her an imperceptible nod. She then quickly stepped forward, tightly grasped Old Madam Xie's hand, and whispered, "Grandma!"

Madam Xie looked at Xie Qingyao carefully and said with a smile, "Why are you dressed so plainly? You should wear something brighter at such a young age! Aunt Hua, go and take Yao'er to change her clothes! We'll wait for you here!"

Xie Qingyao looked at Old Madam Xie in confusion. She nodded her head and said with a smirk, "Where has your usual cleverness gone, Yao'er? Your father specifically instructed you to dress more formally. That imperial decree must be something good that concerns you!"

Xie Qingyao's eyes, which were as dead as ashes, suddenly burst into light, and the figure of Chu Yuncang suddenly flashed in her mind. Could it be related to him?

Xie Qingyao seemed to come back to life suddenly, her face flushed. She bowed happily to Old Madam Xie, then quickly headed towards Yaofang Pavilion with Hongchang, completely unaware that Nanny Hua was following them with difficulty.

Everyone looked at Xie Qingyao's back with envy, but Xie Qingrou and Xie Qingqi's eyes were filled with jealousy. This fake!

When the ladies of the Marquis' Mansion walked to the front yard, an incense stick of time had passed, and Eunuch Deshun's face was full of impatience.

The female relatives all saluted Deshun. Deshun looked at the group of women coldly and saw at a glance the two people surrounded by stars. One was an old woman, who must be Xie Jingyuan's mother; the other was a young girl dressed up in fancy clothes. She was beautiful, but too vulgar.

Deshun raised his eyelids slightly, wondering if this was the daughter Jiang Muxue had found. He looked around but didn't see Jiang Muxue, so he said coldly, "My Lord, where is the Marquis's wife?"

Xie Jingyuan then noticed that Jiang Muxue hadn't come. Annoyance rose in his heart. This bitch dared to hold him back at such an important moment! He coldly scolded the servant behind him: "Why are you still standing there? Go and urge her!"

The servant was so frightened that he ran away, but stopped after two steps. He saw Jiang Muxue wearing a bright red first-rank imperial robe, walking towards him with the support of Xie Qingli.

Old Madam Xie stared at Jiang Muxue's imperial robes, feeling extremely jealous! She wondered if Jing Yuan could earn an imperial robe for her when she was buried.

Old Madam Xie turned to look at Xie Jingyuan, only to see Xie Jingyuan and Qin Bitong looking at each other lovingly. She was furious, thinking that her son was becoming more and more unbecoming!

Old Madam Xie turned her gaze to Xie Qingyao, only to see that Xie Qingyao had a delicate face, a dignified posture, and a hint of blush on her cheeks, looking like a noble and elegant lady. This was her hope of earning an imperial decree! Old Madam Xie took Xie Qingyao's hand and patted it with satisfaction.

Jiang Muxue and Xie Qingli approached and bowed respectfully to Deshun. Jiang Muxue apologized, "I was in the inner courtyard and didn't hear the news. I'm a step late. I've kept you waiting for so long. Please forgive me!"

Deshun's face was full of smiles, and he said gently, "No problem, no problem! Madam Hou, there's no need to be so polite!"

He carefully examined Xie Qingli, who was standing beside Jiang Muxue. Seeing her clear eyes and beautiful features, she looked extraordinary and otherworldly. He couldn't help but nod slightly, then asked with a smile, "Is this the daughter that the Marquis' wife had lost and found?"

Xie Qingli bowed again and said gracefully, "Your humble servant Xie Qingli greets you, eunuch!"

Deshun smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. The person that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was protecting with all his heart was indeed different from others!

All the masters of the Marquis' Mansion were present. Deshun coughed lightly, and everyone stood in front of the incense table. Everyone had an expression of honor on their face. The last time the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion set up an incense table to receive the emperor's order was when Xie Jingyuan was conferred the title of Marquis. Twenty years had passed in the blink of an eye.

Old Madam Xie occupied the center position, with Xie Jingyuan and Xie Qingyao standing on her left and right.

Xie Jingyuan pulled Qin Bitong, who was standing at the edge of the crowd, to his side. Tong'er, dressed up today, was particularly beautiful, which made him itchy. If the occasion was not inappropriate, he really wanted to hug her in his arms immediately.

Xie Jingyuan glanced around with the corner of his eyes, and when no one was paying attention, he squeezed Qin Bitong's jade hand hard. Qin Bitong blushed with shame. Rou'er's incense was really effective. Yuan Lang was so clingy!

Deshun stood in front of everyone, taking in everyone's actions. When he saw Xie Jingyuan and Qin Bitong's extraordinary behavior, he instantly got goosebumps all over his body. And these two were not ordinary cousins!

The second family also worked hard to move forward. Although Xie Jingliang was an official, he was only a sixth-rank official. How could he have the opportunity to meet a big shot like Eunuch Deshun on a normal day? He had a smile on his face and stared at Eunuch Deshun with burning eyes.

Everyone rushed to the front, and the Third House family and Jiang Muxue and her daughter were squeezed to the outermost edge. Xie Jingwen was just a merchant, not interested in currying favor with Eunuch Deshun. Jiang Muxue and Xie Qingli suspected that the imperial edict was for Xie Jingyuan and did not want to join in the fun.

Everyone finally stood still, but Deshun's face darkened slightly. The Xie family was really outrageous! He looked at Jiang Muxue and said with a smile, "Madam Hou, Miss, please come to the middle!"

Xie Qingyao was staring at the incense table, imagining the sweet life she would have with Chu Yuncang in the future, when she suddenly heard Eunuch Deshun calling her "Miss." She softly asked, "Eunuch, where Yao'er is standing is the middle. Do you need to move any further?"

Deshun looked at Xie Qingyao in confusion, wondering who this person was. He frowned but didn't say anything.

Xie Qingyao moved towards Old Madam Xie, looked at Deshun eagerly, and asked obediently, "Eunuch, is this okay?"

Before Deshun could speak, the young eunuch behind him shouted, "How dare you! Who are you and why are you so unruly and uneducated?"

Xie Qingyao was suddenly scolded by a young eunuch. She was furious. She raised her head and said in a cold voice: "I am Xie Qingyao, the eldest daughter of Jing'an Marquis Mansion!"

Deshun's face darkened instantly, and he shouted angrily, "How dare you! You are so audacious! How dare you pretend to be the eldest daughter of the Marquisate? Do you even want to embezzle the imperial edict?!"

Xie Qingyao's face turned pale upon hearing this. She clenched her hands tightly together, as if trying her best to suppress the anger and fear in her heart. She had been the eldest daughter of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion since she was a child. When did she pretend to be the eldest daughter of the Marquis' Mansion!!!
