1630 Princess Anping
Eunuch Qi was confused at the time, he didn't know what was in the imperial decree, after opening it, he smiled happily and ran all the way towards Qingyuan.
The mighty imperial guards specially sent by the palace cleared the way, and they literally filled the entire street.
This kind of posture, except for the nobles in the palace who go out of the palace, who else has such treatment.
Eunuch Qi said, this is the emperor supporting Gu Xiaowan!
When he saw Gu Xiaowan who was also puzzled, Eunuch Qi suppressed his smile and said, "Master Anping, accept the order!"
Everyone didn't know what happened, they all looked at Gu Xiaowan suspiciously and nervously.
And Gu Fangxi was even more frightened, thinking that someone from the palace came to arrest Gu Xiaowan, so she hurriedly pulled Gu Xiaowan's sleeve, her face full of horror.
Gu Xiaowan also frowned slightly, but she couldn't guess what was written in the imperial decree at all, and she didn't dare to neglect and knelt down: "Ministers lead the decree!"
Eunuch Qi opened the imperial decree and read aloud: "Following the heavens, the emperor ordered that there is Gu's Xiaowan, virtuous and virtuous, gentle and pleasant, beneficial to the affairs of the country, and making contributions to the society. Peaceful and kind, kind and peaceful, canonized I am the Lord of Anping County, I admire you."
Not only Gu Xiaowan, but everyone present was shocked.
Gu Xiaowan raised her head abruptly, and asked Eunuch Qi with a smile on her face: "Eunuch, hasn't the emperor already taken back his order?"
Eunuch Qi smiled and did not answer: "Princess Anping, why don't you accept the decree to thank you?"
Gu Xiaowan knew that he would not tell her anything at this moment, so she kowtowed three times and shouted long live three times, then she stood up and accepted the imperial edict.
Eunuch Qi said in a low voice: "The miscellaneous family don't know what the emperor means, but princess, you must not disappoint the emperor's good intentions!"
Then, when he was about to return to the palace after announcing the decree in the Ni Mansion, the imperial palace sent a mighty imperial guard to clear the way, and sent him a second imperial decree!
Gu Xiaowan was shocked.
"Princess, the emperor also said that tomorrow I will let you enter the palace to face the saint and receive the guard of honor from the princess. From now on, you will be the princess of the second rank!"
After receiving the imperial decree, he informed Gu Xiaowan about thanking her for tomorrow, and Eunuch Qi even specially instructed a few more words, and the task was considered completed.
Seeing Gu Xiaowan's calm face, the joy of being conferred the princess title was appropriate and beneficial, Eunuch Qi couldn't help but secretly praised her again in his heart.
There is a feeling of being honored with you in my heart.
After the decree was announced, Eunuch Qi's mission was completed, and the imperial guards cleared the way again and returned to the palace in a mighty way.
And inside Qingyuan, it exploded again.
"Sister, sister, you have been named the princess of Anping. From now on, in this capital, no one will dare to do anything to you if you want to go sideways!" Tan Yushu laughed loudly.
From now on, her elder sister is just like her, like Shu Min, she is a princess of the second rank. Let's see if that Shu Min dares to do anything to her sister casually!
"Sister, you have the same status as Shu Min now, you don't have to be afraid of her anymore! Besides, the emperor's elder brother really saved face today by sending so many imperial guards to clear the way and announce the decree. It's just giving you face. I believe that it won't be long before the whole capital will spread the word, so I'll see, do those people still dare to bully you!" Tan Yushu has always been domineering and arrogant, if it wasn't because of Gu Xiaowan's status, Fearing that those who claimed to be Shixun's noble daughters would bully her sister, she had already turned back.
Now, apart from a few nobles in the palace, no one has a higher status than my sister.
From now on, if my sister wants to walk sideways in the capital, the emperor doesn't care, the queen mother doesn't care, the queen doesn't care, who dares to care!
Fang Peiya was also excited and at a loss: "My sister will be a noble girl in the capital from now on. If anyone dares to bully my sister from the countryside in the future, sister, you can go back directly!"
Gu Xiaowan felt as if she had eaten honey when she saw Tan Yushu and Fang Peiya genuinely happy for her.
I didn't expect to enter the palace today and get two favors from the emperor. It seems that I will thank heaven well tomorrow.
Tan Yushu walked around a lot in the palace, and took Gu Xiaowan into the room to search for the clothes of the saint who will enter the palace tomorrow and the manners he was told to pay attention to.
Gu Fangxi and Gu Xiaoyi looked at the bright yellow imperial decree and the big red seal in their hands.
Gu Fangxi couldn't read, so she dragged Ah Zuo to read it over and over again, then knelt down excitedly again, thanking God.
On the second day, Gu Xiaowan arrived outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation before the prescribed time according to the time Eunuch Qi said.
And Eunuch Qi seemed to be waiting for her, seeing her coming, he hurriedly came forward to say hello: "The miscellaneous family greets the princess!"
Today's Gu Xiaowan is a little more solemn than what she wore yesterday.
A gray dress, the style is not complicated, on the contrary it is a bit simple, but the bright red flowers embroidered on the cuffs and skirt make this dress stand out immediately.
The fabric of the clothes was so high-quality that it even emitted wave after wave of luster under the sun, rippling away like a flowing lake.
"Hello, Mrs. Qi!" Gu Xiaowan did not think highly of herself just because she was promoted to the status of Princess Anping.
The attitude of being neither humble nor overbearing is the same as yesterday.
When Eunuch Qi saw this, he couldn't help admiring again in his heart.
"The princess is waiting outside for a while. The emperor is discussing matters with the regent in the hall! How about the princess follow me to the side hall for a rest?" Qi Gonggong said.
Gu Xiaowan shook her head, her face was calm and unwavering, with a faint smile on her brows and eyes: "Thank you, Eunuch, Xiaowan
Just stand here and wait, when the emperor is done with work, Xiao Wan can't make it in time, delaying the emperor's time! "
Seeing this, Eunuch Qi didn't insist, but shook his whisk with a smile, and went into the palace.
Standing on the steps, Gu Xiaowan didn't look around, but concentrated her eyes in one place, watching seriously.
Under the steps, a group of guards wearing the clothes of the imperial guards were patrolling the palace, coming and going.
They were all dressed in black and red, with uniform long spears. Because of the distance, they couldn't see their appearance clearly.
Gu Xiaowan wanted to look at it seriously, but she couldn't see any of them clearly.
They were all wearing armor, which covered half of their faces, so they couldn't see their true faces clearly.
