Wang Xifeng hurriedly said,

"Old Madam, an angel from the palace has arrived at the West Mansion and is delivering a decree!"

"what?"

Grandmother Jia looked shocked.

Even after the incident with Jia Zhen, the head of the East Palace, Grandmother Jia still had some hope in her heart.

Perhaps His Majesty and the Emperor Emeritus will show special mercy for the sake of the old masters of the two mansions.

In order to keep the title of the West Mansion, Grandmother Jia even wrote and sent out several letters in her own handwriting.

But I haven't received a reply yet.

The angel who delivered the imperial decree from the palace had actually arrived at the West Mansion.

Could it be that the title of Xifu is really lost?

He could not help but stand up hurriedly, looked at Wang Xifeng and asked,

"Do you know what the will of Heaven is?"

Wang Xifeng shook her head slightly and said seriously,

"My wife rushed back to report to the old ancestor as soon as she heard the news. As for the West Mansion, I left Ping'er to take care of it."

"If there is any news, ask her to report it immediately."

Grandmother Jia nodded slightly, sighed softly, and sat back on the couch with the help of Yuanyang.

Jia Baoyu came close to Jia's mother and asked worriedly,

"Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

Grandmother Jia looked at Jia Baoyu and forced a smile while shaking her head slightly.

"I'm fine, Baoyu. Things are a bit chaotic outside these days. You just stay in the mansion, so don't go out and run around."

Upon hearing this, Jia Baoyu nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, old lady. I will stay in the mansion with you and enjoy the fun. I won't go anywhere!"

Grandmother Jia was amused and laughed out loud.

"Haha, good! Good!"

The tense atmosphere in the hall also eased.

But then, everyone in the hall became extremely nervous and uneasy, and lost interest in talking.

Everyone was guessing what the purpose was for bringing Xifu to the palace.

Only the occasional conversation between Lady Jia and Jia Baoyu could be heard.

Soon,

Ping'er, the maidservant beside Wang Xifeng, quickly walked into Rong Xi Tang.

The eyes of Lady Jia and everyone else all fell on Ping'er.

Without Ping'er, he went to Wang Xifeng and whispered,

Grandmother Jia had already stood up with the help of Jia Baoyu.

Pointing at Ping'er, he asked anxiously,

"What message did the angel convey when he arrived at the West Palace?"

Ping'er glanced at Wang Xifeng, and when she saw her nod, she hurriedly bowed respectfully to Lady Jia.

"To answer the old lady, the angel delivered a decree to the Western Palace, saying that Master Zhen was immoral and had been stripped of his title of General Weilie by the Emperor."

"what?!"

Grandmother Jia was horrified and said in a mournful voice,

"Oh my God! The title passed down from our ancestors is lost just like that? I feel so ashamed of the generations of dukes in both houses!"

"How can I, in my grave, face the ancestors of the two governments?"

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and other ladies hurried to Lady Jia's side, helped her back to the couch, and comforted her with concern.

Seeing Lady Jia weeping, Ping'er waved her hands anxiously and said,

"Old lady, there's more!"

When Lady Jia heard this, her expression changed instantly.

"What, there's more? Could it be that His Majesty wants to take back the Ningguo Mansion built by imperial decree?"

Ping'er shook her head slightly.

"That's not mentioned in the imperial edict!"

Hearing this, Jia Mu heaved a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and then asked,

"What else did the imperial edict say?"

Ping'er said,

"The imperial edict also said that Master Rong of the Western Mansion is extremely sincere and filial, so he should be granted the title without being demoted!"

Hearing Ping'er's words, Jia Mu was stunned for a moment, and even seemed to have forgotten to cry.

After a while, he looked at Ping'er with joy and asked,

"You, are you telling the truth?"

Ping Er nodded seriously and said,

"Yes, old lady, I heard it with my own ears!"

"call!"

Grandmother Jia and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Grandmother Jia stood up excitedly and clasped her hands together.

"Ancestors bless you!"

"May our ancestors bless you!"

Then he came to the front of the hall,

He bowed respectfully in the direction of the imperial palace.

"The Emperor's grace is so great! The Emperor's grace is so great!"

All the ladies, young ladies and maids in the hall followed Lady Jia's example and bowed towards the imperial palace.

After the ceremony, Lady Jia, with a relaxed expression, was helped by everyone and sat back on the soft couch in the hall.

Looking at the crowd,

"Although Xifu Zhen'er lost his title, his son, Rong'er, is a sensible person. He inherited Zhen'er's title without any demotion. What a great favor from the emperor!"

Then he said to Wang Xifeng,

"I heard that the steward of the West Mansion committed suicide last night out of fear of punishment. With so many things happening in the West Mansion, you should help out there in the next two days."

"Invite Rong'er over tonight and I'll nag him again. Don't be like his father, who even lost his title."

"Yes! Old Madam!" Wang Xifeng bowed respectfully.

……

Ningguo Mansion, main courtyard.

Jia Rong held the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, standing in front of Jia Zhen's door, somewhat bewildered and at a loss.

Even though he had received the imperial edict a long time ago, Jia Rong's head was still buzzing at this moment.

My heart was beating fast.

Is he the third-rank general of the imperial court?

At this moment, Jia Zhen's roar came from inside the room.

"Evil beast, come in here and talk!"
