Chapter 437 Reading the Imperial Edict



General Zhou has a headache.

Hua Wanru is not here, how can we implement this decree?

Hua Changjue narrowed his eyes slightly.

I thought, Qingqing was right! This imperial decree was for Ru'er!

Fortunately, fortunately, Ruer got married yesterday! And moved out to live alone. If she hadn't gotten married, or hadn't moved out! Now it would be very troublesome.

Hua Changjue's eyes flickered and he said with a smile.

"General Zhou, don't you know that my eldest daughter got married yesterday?"

"Since you're married, you naturally don't belong to my house! How could you be here now?"

General Zhou frowned and thought secretly in his heart.

How could he not know that Hua Wanru got married yesterday, but now he had to pretend that he didn't know!

Otherwise, how should the subsequent imperial edicts be read out?

However, at the moment, General Zhou is feeling more and more troubled!

Hua Changjue actually declared so bluntly that Hua Wanru was already married!

Then, should she read the imperial edict conferring the title of queen that she was holding tightly in her hand or not?

If I really read it out loud, wouldn't everyone accuse me of being crazy?

But if I don’t read it, if the emperor finds out, I’m afraid I’ll lose my life!

Just when General Zhou was in a dilemma and hesitant, Qiao Mu quietly pulled his sleeve and whispered in a low voice.

"General, please read the imperial edict quickly!"

Then he added.

"As for whether to accept the order or not, it all depends on their own decision."

At the end, he urged: "Just get rid of this thorny potato as soon as possible!"

When General Zhou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes! As long as the imperial edict is read, whether the Hua family will accept it will become a problem for them to worry about, and naturally it has nothing to do with them!

Thinking of this, General Zhou hurriedly unfolded the imperial edict and spoke it loudly to Hua Changjue and his family.

"The Hua family, please accept the order."

Hua Changjue frowned and his face immediately turned cold.

He thought that as long as he told the truth about Ru'er's marriage, this Zhou would be embarrassed to read the imperial edict! He didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned and shameless.

Hua Qingqing curled her lips.

[Everyone knows that my sister is getting married! This guy is still reading the imperial edict! He must be thinking that the imperial edict has been read! Whether we accept the edict or not is our business! It has nothing to do with him! ]

【What a nice thought! 】

The eyes of Jiang and others when they looked at General Zhou also turned cold.

General Zhou naturally also felt the anger of the Hua family that was erupting like a volcano.

But he still pretended to be calm and prepared to read the imperial edict.

After all, offending the Hua family is also an offense to His Majesty the Emperor. Anyone with a little common sense will know what to choose!

At this moment, the ordinary people who were passing by the gate of Washington Palace stopped and looked into the palace at the same time.

Because on weekdays, everyone in Washington is kind and approachable, so these simple and kind people are not afraid to enter Washington to find out what's going on.

More importantly, for most common people, divine edicts were rarely seen in their daily lives.

Now that they have the opportunity to witness this mysterious and solemn object with their own eyes, everyone is naturally full of curiosity and anticipation. No one can contain their inner excitement and they rush forward to try to get a glimpse of the real imperial edict.

In fact, the clever Hua Qingqing had already informed the gatekeeper in advance.

The gate of the mansion was deliberately opened to make it convenient for people around to come and watch this farce.

Not only that, Hua Qingqing was even considerate enough to prepare snacks such as melon seeds and peanuts for everyone.

The reason why Qingqing did this was simply to let everyone know clearly how shameless the current emperor was - he actually wanted to enthrone a married person like her sister as the queen of a country!

After seeing that everyone had knelt down, General Zhou quickly read out the imperial edict to avoid any further complications.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims:

I have received the will of heaven, ruling the four seas, and bringing peace to the world. Now there is a beautiful woman, with both virtue and beauty, gentle and virtuous, a treasure of the country. She has a noble character, elegant manners, and a compassionate heart, and is worthy of being the mother of the world.

I am deeply pleased and I have specially appointed Hua Wanru as the Empress. I decree this."

After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, everyone was stunned.

Jiang, Liu and the others all felt a sense of nervousness and relief at the same time.

Fortunately, they listened to Qingqing! The wedding was held yesterday! If it were today, they really couldn't openly disobey the emperor's order!

The King of Yan was originally sitting in a chair, but after hearing the decree, he stood up in surprise.

He frowned and looked at General Zhou, his face intimidating without even getting angry, "Are you kidding?"

"How can the eldest daughter of the Hua family, who is a married woman, be crowned as the mother of a country?"

"General Zhou, are you crazy?"

Everyone looked at General Zhou with strange eyes.

General Zhou gritted his teeth secretly.

Then he said embarrassedly.

"Your Majesty! You have misunderstood me!"

"This is the Emperor's decree after all! I have no choice but to read it!"

As he said this, he handed the imperial edict to King Yan.

The Prince of Yan looked over and saw that it was actually just a small piece of paper, but it was stamped with the emperor's imperial seal.

King Yan frowned.

"Even the emperor's decree has to follow a first come first served principle."

"Miss Hua has already married. She even entered the bridal chamber last night! She is no longer a virgin!"

"It's impossible to be crowned queen!"

"General Zhou, you should send a message to the emperor as soon as possible!"

General Zhou twitched the corner of his mouth.

"The letter, I will definitely pass it on!"

He looked at Hua Changjue again.

"Lord Hua, I am only here to read out the decree. As for what Miss Hua does, it is none of my business."
