There is no suspense about the first imperial edict, but the second imperial edict is usually a reward for meritorious officials who have followed the emperor.
Logically speaking, this time there was no fight for the throne involved, but the emperor himself abdicated, so this step could be omitted or replaced with something else.
But Su Jingshuo knew very well why he became emperor.
If it weren't for the Queen, Xiao Lingdang and Jiang Xinian who saved him at that time, he would have died outside long ago.
Therefore, the content of this imperial edict is particularly rich.
There are three main points. First, Pei Zhuo, the head of the Pei family, the queen's mother's family, was promoted directly from the third rank to the first rank, and directly took charge of the Ministry of Justice.
Secondly, the Divine Doctor Sect was awarded an imperial plaque, and the entire mountain where the Divine Doctor Sect is now located was given to the Divine Doctor Sect. From then on, this place became their own territory.
Third, Xiao Lingdang’s father, Lin Feng, was directly granted the title of Marquis Ning’an, which could be inherited by his descendants.
The reasons are also very strong.
Although all the civil and military officials knew what had happened when Su Daocheng pretended to be sick and arrested Jiang Yang, they still attributed the great merit of saving the emperor to Xiao Lingdang.
Although everyone was more or less dissatisfied, thinking that the Lin family was just a commoner family, and that it was really unfair that they had not only a princess but also a marquis.
Even though this marquis seems to have no real power, at least his status is there.
Even a high-ranking official would have to be respectful when he saw him. Why should he, a commoner, be treated with such respect?
However, no matter how unhappy they were, no one dared to speak out at this time, for fear of accidentally running into the muzzle of fire and being burned to ashes by the new emperor's three fires.
Besides, it is obvious that they are biased towards the Lin family. What can they do?
So, as the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.
They were unhappy, but little Lingling was extremely happy. She had been standing there listening to the imperial edict, and her head was so groggy that she was almost sleepy.
As soon as he heard his father's name, he instantly became alert and came back to his senses.
After Wang Chao finished reading the imperial edict, Xiao Lingling immediately knelt down to express her gratitude.
She did this willingly, just kidding. Although the imperial edict did not directly reward her, it was also a recognition of her contribution.
That is the achievement of following the dragon.
This is the true fortune of an emperor. She actually got a hold of every bit of it, and it all flowed into her body along with her merits.
It's so refreshing.
If the current situation was not inappropriate, she would have released her spiritual sense to check her current situation.
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace on behalf of my father. Long live the Emperor!"
Su Jingshuo looked at Xiao Lingdang with a complicated expression, then smiled, "Hurry up, don't kneel, the ground is hard and cold, be careful with your knees.
From now on, when you and your two brothers enter the palace, you don't need to kneel down to anyone, let alone me. Although I am now the emperor, the brotherhood will not be affected in the slightest. Don't worry, my brothers."
Everyone understood that this was said to Su Jingsheng and others, as well as to all the civil and military officials.
Some people truly believe in the Lord, but there are always some people who like to figure out some crooked ways.
No matter who it is, Su Jingshuo doesn't want anyone to set their sights on him and his brothers.
Su Jingsheng and the others understood, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Father has previously instructed us brothers to be united and harmonious. Moreover, we have worked together for so long and understand each other's personalities best. We will definitely assist you with all our heart."
Xiao Lingling couldn't say these high-sounding words, but she also had a secret message left for her by Su Daocheng.
She also found this later in the room where Pei Huan had lived before in the mansion.
It was clearly written above that Su Daocheng gave her a privilege, which was to supervise three people.
If any of the three people makes a mistake and starts killing each other, she can just start beating them based on the imperial edict.
Even the new emperor Su Jingshuo could be beaten without any psychological burden.
When she saw the imperial edict, she couldn't stop laughing for an hour.
Wow, she must be the first person in the world to receive such an imperial edict.
For safety reasons, she put it in a box and hid it in space.
If she didn't want to be too conspicuous, she really wanted to take it out and show off.
Immediately following was the third imperial edict, which was about the arrangements for the concubines and princesses who remained in the harem.
Those who had children and status were conferred the title of imperial concubine and secretly lived in the imperial concubine's palace.
Those who have no children and no status can choose to leave the palace on their own, or they can choose to move to a temporary palace to live. Relatively speaking, this arrangement is very appropriate.
After the three imperial edicts were issued, the ceremony in the hall today was basically over.
After a short break, the ceremonial procession began to set out for the parade, all the way to the Temple of Heaven. The carriages were not moving very fast, and the civil and military officials had to follow behind, and it took nearly an hour to walk.
Fortunately, as a member of the royal family, Xiao Lingling can ride in the carriage with Su Jingsheng and others, otherwise she would have a headache just thinking about it.
In the end, little Lingling simply fell asleep and didn't wake up until she reached the Temple of Heaven.
Xiao Lingling had just woken up and was a little groggy. When Su Jingsheng pulled her to her seat, she started to feel confused.
It wasn't that she didn't want to participate in the ceremony, but it was really boring.
It was a very long passage of offering sacrifices to heaven. The master of ceremonies said one sentence and Su Jingshuo repeated it. It was all the kind of nonsense that was so brainwashing.
She didn't like reading this kind of book, so naturally she found it boring to listen to it. She kept yawning quietly and leaned lightly on Su Jingsheng to "sleep".
