Chapter 16 Host, do you want to eat the emperor's melon?
Qin Yue had only one thought in his mind at this moment: Is this wrong? ! I am still a baby! I am still breastfeeding! I can't speak yet? How can I become an official?
Eunuch Li read out the imperial edict and handed it to Mr. Qin, but seeing that Mr. Qin did not respond for a long time, he reminded him, "Mr. Qin, please accept the imperial edict."
Mr. Qin woke up from his dream at this moment and hurriedly took the imperial edict respectfully with both hands, "I accept the edict on behalf of my granddaughter. Thank you, my Lord!"
"Mr. Qin, please communicate these rewards to this eunuch. Oh! By the way, the official uniforms of the two Lords Qin and Princess Fu'an have been made by the Ministry of Rites overnight, and someone will deliver them later. I will return to the palace to report to His Majesty now!"
Eunuch Li pointed to the long list of rewards behind him, then pointed to a eunuch next to him, and explained to Mr. Qin.
"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Li. This is just a small gift. Please accept it."
Old Master Qin took a bulging purse from Steward Wang and stuffed it into Eunuch Li's hand.
Eunuch Li weighed it in his hand. Wow! It was quite heavy. It seemed that the Qin family was very sincere. He showed satisfaction unconsciously.
"Thank you very much. I will go back to the palace to report to His Majesty."
After saying that, Eunuch Li got on the carriage and left slowly.
Steward Wang of the Qin family was in charge of the handover and reward. Qin Qin ordered people to take out the firecrackers bought early in the morning and set them off outside the Qin Mansion. He also distributed some candies, melon seeds and other snacks to the people around him, and even scattered a large bag of copper coins.
There was a lot of noise at the gate of the Qin family, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
After receiving the decree, the Qin family members came to the meeting room.
At this time, in the Qin family meeting room.
"Master, tell me, what is the situation?"
Old Lady Qin couldn't help but ask first.
"Madam, this morning, the eldest brother and I wanted to talk about the happy event of the official appointment, but I didn't expect that there was also the matter of Sister Yue." Master Qin answered honestly.
"Yes, mother, last night His Majesty left father and me alone to discuss the Qin family's return to the court. Because of my good martial arts foundation, I was given the position of deputy commander of the imperial guards. Because of my father's good business ability and the strong recommendation of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he was originally scheduled to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, but I don't know why it became a walking guard in front of the court." "
The reason why His Majesty conferred the title of Princess Yue on Sister Yue was because Sister Yue broke the curse of the Qin family. I didn't expect that Sister Yue would be given an official position. From now on, the three of us can go to court together!"
Qin Qin added happily.
"Sister Yue is still so young, how can she go to court?" Lu couldn't help but worry.
"We have no way of knowing what His Majesty is thinking. I will hold Sister Yue in my arms to the court tomorrow. Maybe His Majesty appointed me as the imperial guard because he wants me to take Sister Yue to the court. After all, the imperial guard only listens to His Majesty's orders. If there is no order, there is nothing to do." Old Master Qin said helplessly.
Qin Yue: [What's wrong with the emperor? Is it appropriate for a baby who just turned one month old to go to the court? I can't talk, so am I supposed to be a mascot? ! ]
Everyone in the Qin family took a breath of cold air when they heard this: Sister Yue! Can the emperor be scolded casually? ! This will get you beheaded!
Everyone in the Qin family was a little worried. What if Sister Yue continued to speak so casually in the court? How many heads in the Qin family could be chopped off?
Thinking of this, Master Qin seemed to have foreseen that he would be walking on thin ice in the court in the future, and his expression suddenly became a little depressed.
System: [Host, you really guessed it right. Your emperor just let you be a mascot and wanted to use your blessings to nourish the court.]
Qin Yue: [What kind of brain does this have? Is it a pig's brain? I'm still a baby? ! I'm really crying. I have to start working just after one month. What's going on? 】
But no matter how Qin Yue expressed her dissatisfaction, she was woken up early the next morning while still asleep, fed in a daze, put on a tailor-made official uniform in a daze, and was carried to the carriage in a daze, slowly driving into the palace.
When Qin Yue woke up in a daze, she was already standing in the Golden Throne Hall in the arms of her grandfather.
The court officials received the news yesterday that a little official would take office today, and they couldn't help but look into Lord Qin's arms with curiosity.
Various news about the little official had already spread throughout the capital, and it can be said that everyone knew about it.
It is said that the little official is a fairy who came to the world specifically to curse the Qin family!
It is also said that the little official has a little sister who is a wild monster to help her, and can know everyone's secrets! What a joke!
But it's just hearsay, the court officials said they wanted to hear it with their own ears!
"Your Majesty is here!" A shrill voice rang out in the hall.
Emperor Jin Yuan walked towards the dragon chair with a dragon-like step and sat down with his buttocks. His chest was heaving violently because he walked too fast.
The court officials bowed and shouted: "Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"
"My dear ministers, please stand up!"
Emperor Jin Yuan waved his hand, signaling the court officials to stand up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The court officials responded in unison.
Qin Yue's eyes were rolling around at this moment. He saw that the hall was full of people. However, these adults seemed to have some problems with their eyes. They all looked askance when they stood and talked. Is this some kind of new way to attend court?
All the court officials: I was caught peeping, but it seems that I didn't...
System: [Host, there is the emperor's melon, do you want to eat it? ! ]
Master Qin, now should be called Master Qin: This familiar feeling of suffocation is coming again... I have to tell Butler Wang after the court today, otherwise no one will go to the mass grave to collect the bodies of their family...
All the court officials finally heard the legendary voice of the old sister with their own ears, but now they wish they had never heard it!
Can the emperor's melon be heard? !
Everyone was waiting nervously and excitedly, fearing that the young official and the old sister would say something outrageous and anger His Majesty, but they couldn't help their curiosity and listened attentively.
The court officials thought that if they stuck their heads out, they would be cut by the sword, and if they lowered their heads, they would still be cut by the sword. It was no regret to be able to eat His Majesty's melon before the sword! Emperor
Jin Yuan also pricked up his ears, he wanted to hear what melon he could have!
The prince stood there with a calm face, and if he hadn't glanced at Qin Yue from time to time, one would have thought that he was not curious at all.
The second prince rubbed his hands excitedly, oh oh oh oh, so excited, I can hear father's gossip!
Qin Yue said excitedly: [Eat, eat, eat, must eat! ]
System: [Emperor Jin Yuan got up late this morning, and he was in a hurry to go to court, so he put on his underwear backwards! ]
Qin Yue: [Puff! Hahahahahaha! ]
The court officials lowered their heads, trying their best to hold back their laughter, and their shoulders couldn't stop shaking.
The prince looked weird, wanting to laugh but not wanting to laugh, and his face twitched.
The second prince almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and the prince next to him quickly covered his mouth, what are you laughing at! Hold it in!
How could his stupid brother be so ignorant, is this the occasion to laugh? He laughed at his father in front of so many court officials, did he want to be pinned to the ground and beaten by his father?
Lord Qin looked hopeless at the moment. It seemed that Steward Wang might not be saved either. He had to tell a few more people and cast a wide net. There would always be a "fish that slipped through the net" that could be collected for the whole family...
Emperor Jin Yuan's old face flushed red from his ears to his neck.
Now Emperor Jin Yuan was extremely lucky. A few days ago, he listened to the words of the Second Prince on a whim. I don't know where he read it from a book, saying that more sun exposure is good for the body, so he sunbathed under the scorching sun for a few days, and his whole body was tanned black.
Well, it's better to be dark, so you can't see that he blushed...
Then Emperor Jin Yuan glared at Eunuch Li standing next to him. It was all Li Fuquan's fault. He said he was worried that he didn't get enough rest, so he woke him up a little later than usual. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hurriedly put on his underwear backwards!
Eunuch Li, I really want to be invisible...
System: [Your emperor is really a good emperor, or you can say that all the emperors of the Southern Dynasty were good emperors. During his reign, he was diligent and dedicated to the people. He was busy dealing with memorials last night and went to bed late, so he got up late this morning. ]
Qin Yue: [Oh, so that's the case. His Majesty is really good. He is still working hard late at night. But staying up too late is not good. It's easy to go bald. I hope His Majesty didn't inherit that strange disease. Besides, the underwear is worn inside, so no one will know if it is worn backwards. We can just have fun together, hehe...】
When Emperor Jin Yuan heard the two people praising him earlier, he felt a little embarrassed and touched his nose to cover it up. Then he heard "baldness" and "strange disease" and was so scared that he coughed a few times, fearing that the two people would reveal the baldness of the empress dowager the next moment.
Emperor Jin Yuan listened carefully, but did not hear the word "empress dowager", so he exhaled heavily.
Can we just let go of this underwear matter? If you two didn't say it, no one would have known!
Everyone in the palace: Since everyone knows, let's have some fun together, hahaha...
Emperor Jin Yuan saw that the ministers below were all trying to hold back their laughter and their shoulders were shaking constantly, especially the second prince, whose mouth was so tight that he looked like a toothless old man. It was really unbearable to watch. Emperor Jin Yuan coughed
lightly and changed the subject, saying: "My dear ministers, do you have something important
to report?" "Your Majesty, I have something to report. I am suing Prince An!"
