1619 Imperial Decree Came

The person who came was obviously the emperor's personal eunuch—Eunuch Qi. Behind him, the man in brocade clothes and guards also came on a tall horse. He came to the horse and waited for Eunuch Qi to get off the horse.

After dismounting from the horse, Duke Qi immediately came to Tan Yushu and saluted, "I have seen the Princess Huguo!"

Tan Yushu hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up: "Eunuch Qi, don't be too polite."

Eunuch Qi got up, and Xiang Yuanlin stepped forward obsequiously, nodded and bowed hurriedly and said: "It turns out that Eunuch Qi is here, Eunuch Qi, but the emperor personally ordered to arrest the Anping county magistrate?"

When Eunuch Qi heard this, he cast a sidelong glance at the obsequious Xiang Yuanlin, and said with a smirk: "Master Xiang, this is the emperor's holy will, and private speculation of the holy will is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Ever since Ni Bing fell off his horse and rested at home, Xiang Yuanlin had seized all the affairs of Wucheng Bing Masi, even when he went to report to the palace, Xiang Yuanlin was vying to get in.

After finally meeting the Holy Majesty's Tianyan twice, the Emperor praised him for his thoughtfulness and eloquence, and he also said that if he works hard, he will have a bright future.

The emperor said these words to his courtiers, doesn't that mean that the emperor will promote him soon?

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, the road to promotion came so fast, it made Xiang Yuanlin a little uncomfortable.

However, the sooner the better, no matter how fast, he can bear it.

In the palace, he got the emperor's own eyes, and even the close eunuch Qi Gonggong who was next to the emperor was kind of close to him, thinking that if he became a high-ranking official, there would be too many people currying favor with him. !

The emperor praised him once, and Xiang Yuanlin felt extremely confident and proud in his heart, feeling that his road to promotion and fortune was coming soon, but, the beating words of Eunuch Qi just now made Xiang Yuanlin's heart skip a beat.

Could it be that I thought wrong?

I've mispoken?

It is really a big deal to lose one's head to speculate on the holy will!

When Xiang Yuanlin saw Eunuch Qi's fair face and a pair of shrewd eyes looking at him with a bland smile, he felt a chill down his spine. This Eunuch Qi had been by the emperor's side for a long time, even when he was silent , are a little self-indulgent.

Xiang Yuanlin had never met any father-in-law, let alone the emperor's personal father-in-law, seeing his indifference and sarcasm, Xiang Yuanlin was worried and surprised the first time, but calmed down the second time.

His downcast eyes gave Eunuch Qi a sharp look, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

It's just a hermaphrodite who has lost his life, yet he dares to show off his power in front of him, hum, next time, I must make this hermaphrodite look good!

The east side is not bright, the west side is bright, his road to promotion and fortune is destined to go!

Thinking of Shu Lin's promise of a high salary for a high-ranking official, and the secluded and luxurious house where his little concubine, Jing Niang, made her feel fascinated.

When Eunuch Qi turned his head, he didn't see the disdain and sarcasm in Xiang Yuanlin's eyes. Eunuch Qi turned his head and saw a beautiful woman standing beside the Princess Huguo. But he was calm and calm, and didn't feel the slightest look of fear, which surprised Eunuch Qi a little.

This person has a noble temperament. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a princess who was brought up in the palace. With every move and gesture, he has an elegant posture and an outstanding demeanor.

Her facial features are not very prominent, even a little plain, but together, they make people's eyes shine. After people take a look, they can't bear to look away.

Especially those eyes, the brows and eyes are picturesque.

Eunuch Qi asked with a smile: "If the miscellaneous guess is right, this should be the head of Anping County!"

Seeing him asking herself something, Gu Xiaowan nodded, helped her up and said, "Gu Xiaowan has met Eunuch Qi!"

The posture is dignified, graceful and demure, neither humble nor overbearing, completely without the vulgarity and vulgarity of women from the countryside.

What kind of place, what kind of family and what kind of parents can raise such an elegant girl!

Eunuch Qi thought curiously, gave a hand with a smile, shook off his whisk, looked at Xiang Yuanlin, and said, "Fortunately, the miscellaneous family came in time, otherwise, the slave would have to go to Wucheng to fight against the horses." The Secretary has announced the decree!" Qi Gonggong pointed out something, looking at Xiang Yuanlin who had been scared and shut up, and said with fear.

Eunuch Qi's words were obviously helping her. When Gu Xiaowan saw this father-in-law, she was close to her for the first time when they met. Although she was a little puzzled, this person was the emperor's close-knit father-in-law. He would come to personally issue the imperial edict. something.

Thinking of this, I heard Eunuch Qi's voice suddenly become serious: "Master Anping County, kneel down to accept the order!"

What?

That imperial decree is for yourself?

Gu Xiaowan was surprised for a while, wondering what the purpose of this imperial decree was?

Xiang Yuanlin was also complacent, looking at Gu Xiaowan's confused look, he thought to himself: "Let you jump around for a while, and when the decree is announced, you will be committing a crime of disrespect!"

Gu Xiaowan quickly knelt down as she said, and the rest of the people also knelt down one after another when they saw this.

At this moment, on the huge street, there were hundreds of people kneeling down, and only hundreds of black heads could be seen.

After Eunuch Qi finished announcing the decree, Gu Xiaowan and the others breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiang Yuanlin was not calm anymore.

"Eunuch, please come in, sit in the room and have a cup of tea!" Gu Xiaowan invited Eunuch Qi to go in, but Eunuch Qi refused, and said with a smile: "The miscellaneous family will not go in."

Sit down, the emperor is still waiting for the county lord in the palace, the county lord should not make His Majesty wait too long! "

Gu Xiaowan saw that he insisted on this, so she didn't say much, and went back to Qingyuan surrounded by everyone to clean up.

Seeing that all the people in Qingyuan had gone back, Xiang Yuanlin was not angry when he saw that the person he was about to take away was ruined again, but he still pretended to be a little puzzled and asked: "Eunuch Qi, the emperor clearly agreed In order for the lower officials to arrest Gu Xiaowan and bring them to justice, and for the lower officials to interrogate the real murderer of the four murders, why did they suddenly order her to enter the palace to face the saint this time!"
