But his mind was already clouded by excitement. He stared wide-eyed at the eunuch who had already approached him and asked in a trembling voice, "Sir, what is this?"
Zhou Dehai glanced at Yun Cheng indifferently and said, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and inform your master that the imperial decree has arrived."
When Yun Cheng heard the first half of the sentence, he became even more excited, thinking to himself: This imperial edict is indeed for me.
But after hearing Zhou Dehai's entire sentence, he was as if struck by lightning, standing there dumbfounded for a long time, unable to react.
What did my father-in-law just say? Did he tell him to go and inform the master?
The imperial eunuch not only treated him as a servant, but also came to deliver an imperial decree to Yunzhi.
Seeing Yun Cheng's dazed look, Zhou Dehai was somewhat dissatisfied and was about to repeat himself when Ru Mei came out.
Upon seeing the eunuch delivering the imperial decree, he was taken aback at first, then stepped forward and asked, "Greetings, sir. May I ask what brings you here?"
“I am here to deliver an imperial decree to your master who has come to your residence. Go quickly and inform your master to come and receive the decree.”
"Yes, this servant will send someone to inform you. Please come with me, sir." While sending someone to inform Yunzhi, Rumei led the eunuch who was delivering the decree to the front courtyard, the place where Yuncheng had just been.
Yun Cheng couldn't leave now either. Even if he wasn't a member of this household, he still had to kneel and receive the imperial edict.
Therefore, he realized what was happening and had already followed the messenger team back the way they came.
Yunzhi was greatly surprised to hear that her father-in-law had come to deliver an imperial decree. She was a woman who had just divorced; why would the palace issue a decree at this time?
Unable to figure it out, Yunzhi stopped thinking about it and strode towards the front yard.
If she had known a eunuch would be coming to deliver the imperial decree, she would have stayed in the front yard. Now, she's just returned to the back yard, and before she can even sit down, she has to go back again.
When Yunzhi arrived at the front courtyard, everyone in the mansion had already arrived. Besides the people in the mansion, Yuncheng was also among them.
Upon seeing Yun Cheng, Yun Zhi frowned slightly. She thought to herself, "Why isn't this person leaving yet?"
However, she couldn't send the person away now, so she decided to accept the imperial decree first.
"Is everyone here?" Zhou Dehai asked when he saw Yunzhi arrive.
After receiving an affirmative reply, he unfolded the imperial edict in his hand and said to Yunzhi, "Yunzhi, receive the edict!"
Upon hearing this, Yunzhi simply nodded, showing no intention of kneeling. Zhou Dehai glanced at Yunzhi, wanting to say something, but remembering the other man's temper, he swallowed his words.
Forget it, he's just here to deliver an imperial decree, let's not cause any more trouble.
Yun Cheng was unaware that he had already knelt down and was extremely anxious to see Yun Zhi standing there. He wanted to reprimand her and make her kneel down, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful in front of Zhou Dehai.
But Yunzhi refused to kneel, and he was afraid that Zhou Dehai would get angry, which would affect him and the entire Yun family.
Yunzhi had no idea about Yuncheng's dilemma. As the Dark Emperor, she could not kneel before anyone, not even the current emperor.
Zhou Dehai quickly finished reading the imperial edict, then walked up to Yunzhi and handed it to her, saying with a smile, "Regent's Consort, please keep this imperial edict safe!"
Yunzhi stared at the imperial edict in her hand, somewhat bewildered. She never dreamed that it would be an imperial edict bestowing a marriage upon someone, and that the person to whom it was bestowed would be the Regent.
At that moment, she wasn't happy; instead, she wondered if it was a conspiracy.
