172 Imperial Edict (2 in 1)(2/2)

"Xiang Bei, from now on you will be her support. I am such a daughter, so don't let her down!"

Seeing Taining Marquis Chen Ying crying like this, Shen Yichen suddenly understood why he had never accepted her before and why he had such high standards for his son-in-law.

It can only be said that the hearts of parents in the world are pitiful. Taining Marquis Chen Ying is trying his best to find a husband for Chen Qingtong who can rely on him for life.

"Don't worry, father-in-law, my son-in-law will definitely live up to his trust!"

"Go, go."

Taining Marquis Chen Ying waved his hand and then turned away. He no longer had the courage to watch his daughter go out with his own eyes.

After Shen Yichen bowed to Chen Qingtong, he turned around and walked out of the house. After exiting this door, Chen Qingtong was no longer the daughter of the Chen family, but the wife of the Shen family.

The eight-carriage sedan took off. Compared with the previous team that went to the Taining Marquis Mansion to welcome the bride, the team returning to pick up the bride was even more majestic and huge.

The reason is that the Taining Marquis Mansion has prepared a generous dowry for Chen Qingtong, which is as much as one hundred and eighty kilograms, stretching for several kilometers, and it is impossible to see the end at a glance.

It can be said that it is a real phoenix crown and beautiful girl, ten miles of red makeup!

The scene of the return trip from the wedding made the people in the capital even more excited. In the past, they had only heard that the only daughter of Marquis Taining was the apple of his eye. The Marquis cherished her so much that he would not marry her easily.

Now that the rumors have been confirmed, just the dowry of Shili Hongzhuang, I am afraid that given the foundation of the Houfu, it is estimated that almost all of it will be emptied, right?

It is indeed a marriage between noble relatives and wealthy families, this scene is simply unparalleled in the world!

In the Chengguo Duke's mansion, Zhu Yong and Shen were sitting in the high hall, waiting for the newlyweds to enter and bow three times.

Ever since Shen Yichen went out to welcome the bride in the morning, Shen's heart had been beating "thumping, thumping". She couldn't believe that she could sit on the main seat with her father-in-law, waiting for the newlyweds to bow.

You must know that the biological mother is respected, and the biological mother can only sit to the side and watch the ceremony.

But the reality just happened. Even Cheng Guogong had no objection and chose to accept it happily.

Mrs. Shen could not imagine what happened between her son Shen Yichen and her father-in-law during this period, and the relationship would become so weird.

You call it close, but so far they haven't even entered the genealogy, and the two fathers and sons don't have any communication on weekdays.

Let's talk about the unfamiliarity and estrangement, the two father and son can always reach a tacit understanding at critical moments, and the father-in-law's request for Shen Yichen can be described as indulgence, not at all like the real unfamiliarity in Yingtian Mansion in the past.

With this doubt, Mrs. Shen heard the voice of the master of ceremonies coming from outside the house: "When the newlyweds enter, they will bow three times!"

At this time, Shen Yichen led Chen Qingtong to the lobby of the palace, where they worshiped heaven and earth, worshiped their parents, and the husband and wife bowed to each other.

After the salute, Shen Yichen and Chen Qingtong served tea to their parents. Looking at her son and daughter-in-law in front of her, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but burst into tears, but this time she was so moved that she cried with joy.

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong accepted the tea with a smile on his face, but he had mixed feelings in his heart.

After the wedding, Shen Yichen will move out of the palace. I wonder how the relationship between father and son will get along in the future.

Zhu Yong once put the entire family's responsibility on his shoulders, and wanted to maintain the development of the entire family through the method of "all prosper and lose".

Now this most accomplished son cannot understand his own difficulties, let alone the difficulty of shouldering the family's prosperity and survival. I wonder if this is a kind of sadness?

After paying their respects, Chen Qingtong was sent to the bridal chamber by the ceremony lady. As for Shen Yichen, he didn't go in so quickly.

The evening banquet is the real wedding banquet!

As night falls, the palace of Duke Cheng Guo is filled with ministers of civil and military affairs. Outside the palace, flowing banquets are set up along the street. As long as you pass by and are willing to send a blessing, you can sit down and enjoy the wedding banquet together.

At this moment, Shen Yichen, as the groom's official, began to toast table after table. The ministers and ministers in the court were all okay, and they just said a few polite words of blessing and it was over.

What is really difficult to deal with is the group of brothers from the outer courtyard school and the strong miners from Fujian. They are really a huge number.

After drinking a round, Shen Yichen's hand holding the wine glass started to tremble.

Compared to the banquet in the front hall, which was full of distinguished guests, in the Lin family's house in the back hall, Zhu Ji walked in with a displeased face.

"Mom, my father-in-law is too partial. He is also married to the daughter of a marquis, and I am still his legitimate son. Why is it that his wedding banquet, Shen Yichen, is better than mine? Almost all the court officials and ministers are present!"

Originally, Mrs. Lin was very angry because of the issue of visiting the church. When she heard Zhu Ji say these words, she became even more angry.

The one who was in the face scolded: "You only know how to eat, drink and have fun on weekdays. You can't even pass the Jinshi exam. How can you compare with Shen Yichen's three yuan and the third place?"

"Who in the officialdom is not a human being, don't you understand the principle of flattering the superior and suppressing the inferior? If you were the number one scholar in the Yichou Division today, would there be any high-ranking ministers present at the wedding banquet of Shen Yichen, a mere maid giving birth to a son?"

Zhu Ji still thought that he and his mother could seek justice from his father-in-law, but unexpectedly he was scolded, which was a bit aggrieved.

So he replied sternly: "Then mother, haven't you been overpowered by that cheap maid? Now you can't even go to the hall and stay in the backyard, how can you still have the momentum to be the mistress of the house!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Lin was so furious that she stood up and slapped Zhu Ji.

This slap also woke up Zhu Ji. He quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake: "My son said something wrong. I hope my mother will not be angry!"

Zhu Ji originally thought that his mother would continue to scold him, but he saw Mrs. Lin showing a sneer and saying: "You are right, after all, I am still the head mistress of this palace, so what if I take a concubine? Why can I suppress her?" Me?"

Thinking of this, Mrs. Lin ignored Zhu Ji who was still kneeling on the ground, turned around and walked towards the front hall.

It was the father-in-law's decision to accept three bows from the newlyweds, and he could not disobey it. However, the father-in-law never said that he could not sit in the aunt's position at the wedding banquet, so why should he avoid Mrs. Shen?

Today we should let the high officials and ministers of the DPRK find out who the wife of Chengguo Justice is!

Mrs. Lin could have endured the humiliation for a while and pretended to be close to Mr. Shen in front of Duke Cheng, so that she would be able to attack later and not be suspected.

As a result, Zhu Ji's wave of manipulation directly made Lin furious. She could no longer maintain her rationality and planned to declare her sovereignty over the main wife.

So oftentimes, I am not afraid of my opponents, but my pig teammates, and it just so happens that this pig teammate is my own son.

In the front hall of the palace, Zhu Yong was having a lively chat with Qi Chongchen, the minister of the imperial court. He was in a good mood when facing compliments from everyone.

Although Ms. Shen and her biological mother occupied the main seat at today's wedding banquet, Ms. Shen never forgot her origins and did not make it public among the ladies attending the banquet. She remained seated on her seat without moving.

At this time, someone noticed that Mrs. Lin and several maids were walking over with great fanfare, and there was a feeling that they were coming with bad intentions.

After this scene appeared, many ministers and ministers roughly guessed what was going on. After all, the complicated father-son relationship between Duke Cheng Guo and Shen Yichen was known to everyone in the civil and military circles. Now that a biological mother was added to the mix, it became even more complicated. A good drama about family ethics.

It's just that they didn't expect that this drama might also start at the wedding banquet.

Mrs. Lin's appearance made the bustling noise in the front hall much quieter. Many people stood up and saluted her to say hello.

Soon, Mrs. Shen at the main table also found Mrs. Lin walking towards her. She subconsciously stood up and prepared to give up her seat.

But at this moment, Shen Yichen stretched out an arm, pulled his mother back to her seat, and gently shook his head at her.

"There's something good to watch."

Sun Shaozong, who was sitting at the other table, immediately burst into gloating laughter when he saw this scene.

As a son of a foreign relative, he is not surprised by the "competition between wives and concubines" in the inner courtyard.

It's best to put on a big show in Chengguo's mansion today and make his family feel restless. Otherwise, attending this wedding banquet will be too psychologically unbalanced.

Why does Shen Yichen have fame, career, and a happy marriage? God is really unfair!

"Yeah?"

He Pingyan was not very familiar with this kind of internal fighting. He didn't pay much attention to Lin's appearance, let alone what would happen next.

As for Yang Hongze, he was hostile to Shen Yichen, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the messy things in the backyard.

When a real man walks between heaven and earth, he should put his family, country and world as his top priority. What's going on with the dispute between women?

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong's face became solemn. He knew exactly what Lin, who had been married for many years, wanted to do when they appeared. However, now that all the ministers and ministers of the court were present, Lin also had the status of the principal wife. , it is reasonable for her to attend the concubine’s wedding banquet, and she cannot stop it.

The only thing I'm worried about is that Lin doesn't make the scene too ugly.

Just when everyone was focusing on Mrs. Lin, guessing what kind of show would happen next, a group of palace people walked in from outside the mansion, and the eunuch headed by him was wearing a yellow luogai on his head. Umbrella, holding a bright yellow scroll in his hand.

The appearance of this posture is undoubtedly the arrival of the imperial decree!

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

The official who delivered the order came to the center of the front hall and shouted directly without paying attention to everyone's reaction.

It looked like the imperial edict was coming, and there was also a yellow umbrella, so there must be an important edict.

So all the guests, not caring about Mrs. Lin, knelt down one after another to receive the order, and the servants of Duke Chengguo also brought the order to the table.

"Welcome to Saint Ann!"

As the whole audience kowtowed in response to the edict, the official who delivered the edict slowly unrolled the imperial edict and announced the edict.

"The emperor was entrusted to heaven, and the edict said: etiquette comes from righteousness, and great filial piety is governed by the humble house; orders come from heaven, and honor is given to Jiaqi. The Hanlin Academy compiled and compiled Shen Yichen's mother, Demao Lanyi, a virtuous and virtuous person. , Juzi is successful, and good materials are planted in Zhenqian. I use your son to control the affairs of King Xiang, and the Jin Dynasty grants you the fifth rank, Taiyiren, in the play! The voice of Zhaozhi's good deeds, the honor is not to be replaced; the reward for your hard work is the celebration. Youlong. May 16th, the 10th year of Orthodoxy."

After the edict was read out, all the guests were shocked. The concubine was granted a royal title, and it was beyond the rank of his son. He was granted the rank of fifth rank, Tai Yiren. How could the emperor agree to such a decree?

Mother Shen was also confused at this moment. She had always regarded her status as a slave, so she took the initiative to avoid Mrs. Lin when she saw her.

Even though her son Shen Yichen is now the third-level emperor and the most powerful person in the world, she never thought that her status as a maid and a concubine could change.

Now that the imperial edict has been issued, she has been named the fifth-grade royal wife of the imperial court, which means that she has an "official status" from now on and is completely out of humble status.

This kind of transformation is just like a scholar who becomes a scholar and can be promoted to the scholar-bureaucrat class without kneeling when he meets the official. Even if Lin is a wife, she no longer has the right to dispose of concubines with imperial status at will, and has gained a true personality. of equality.

At this time, Mrs. Lin went to worship and collapsed on the ground with a straight face. She came to the front hall to demonstrate and declare her "sovereignty", but when she heard the imperial edict that Mrs. Shen was named the Imperial Lady, it was like a bolt from the blue!

How could Shen, a humble maidservant, be granted a royal title by the emperor? Now that Shen Yichen is an official in the court, can his hands and eyes reach the sky?

This imperial edict shattered Lin's greatest psychological advantage over Shen.

From then on, there was no hierarchy between maids and concubines, but they were both under the same command, and there was only a difference in rank and official title!

What's more, what Lin didn't expect was that the imperial edict was only the first one, and the official who delivered the edict also carried the second imperial edict.
