There's another one?
Imperial edict?
Madam Pei looked at Li Qingluo.
Although Li Qingluo had some guesses in his mind, he could only shake his head to indicate that he didn't know.
Mrs. Pei's heart was pounding wildly.
When he was in the court, he had never seen the imperial edict and the imperial decree issued to one family at the same time.
If it is really what I think in my heart, this Prince Su is really capable.
Although Luo'er did save the Queen Mother this time.
But if it weren't for him, perhaps they, the grandparents and grandchildren, would not have been invited to participate in that Xia Miao event.
Saving the Queen Mother was more a matter of timing.
Now that Luo'er's low status has been resolved, if another imperial decree comes...
But how did he convince the emperor to issue an imperial decree?
There is no way that Emperor Yan would agree to Luo'er becoming the daughter-in-law of the royal family with her status, right?
Li Chaojing is still imprisoned in prison.
The case is unclear.
Although he was an old general, he was old after all, and had been away from government for thirty years.
The two of them had no one to rely on at all.
Mrs. Pei was very nervous.
I'm afraid this imperial decree will make Luo'er a concubine, which would be a huge concession for the royal family.
But for Luo'er, it was a grievance.
Mrs. Pei felt a little bitter in her heart, but she heard the imperial edict being recited again:
"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims:
The fifth prince is Su Wang Duan Rongshi, who is virtuous and upright, talented in both civil and military affairs, and has a righteous character, making him capable of great responsibilities.
Li Qingluo, the eldest granddaughter of the beautiful old general - Princess Yaoguang, is gentle and virtuous, beautiful and intelligent, with both virtue and beauty, and her reputation for virtue spread far and wide.
Although the two came from different backgrounds, they were both born into prominent families and were a match made in heaven with their talent and beauty.
It is truly a match made in heaven.
I was very happy to hear this, and specially granted the two of them a marriage to form a harmonious relationship, and named Princess Yaoguang as the principal wife of Prince Su, so that this would become a good story.
The Imperial Astronomical Observatory was ordered to select an auspicious date and prepare for the wedding, while the Ministry of Rites coordinated all matters...
I hope they will be loving and respectful to each other after marriage...
Announce it to the world and let everyone know.
So ordered! "
"Your servant—"
"minister--"
"Thank you, Lord!"
After Li Qingluo and his grandson received the imperial edict and stood up, Aunt Fang immediately came forward and held Li Qingluo's hand affectionately.
"County Lady, congratulations."
"From the first time I met you, my Lord, I felt you were a noble person with great blessings."
"In the future, you will be the Princess Su."
"Please take good care of this old slave in the future."
Li Qingluo's face was filled with fear: "Aunt, your words make this servant extremely frightened."
"Protecting the Empress Dowager is my duty. It is my blessing that the Empress Dowager still remembers me."
"I am fortunate to have the Empress Dowager's mercy on me. Otherwise, how could I, with my humble status, have ever caught the Empress Dowager's eye?"
Mrs. Pei also stepped forward with a smile and said, "Thanks to the grace of His Majesty, it is a great honor for our family to be able to marry His Royal Highness Prince Su."
"This old minister will teach Luo'er well and will not disappoint the Empress Dowager and His Majesty."
After finishing her high-sounding words, Madam Pei waved her hand again.
Aunt Fang and the eunuch each held a large bag of silver in their hands.
The two of them only felt a heaviness in their hands and were greatly surprised.
General Pei is quite generous.
"Aunt and father-in-law, you have worked hard today."
"Would you like to come in and have some tea?"
I dare not drink tea.
After handing over the imperial edict, the two men took the silver and left satisfied.
In the carriage, the two opened the silver bag and found that in addition to dozens of taels of silver ingots, there were also several large-denomination silver bills!
This handsome old general...his family background is so rich?
How rich would the dowry for Princess Su be in the future!
The two were stunned and returned to the palace to report.
After receiving so much money, he naturally said a lot of good things about Li Qingluo and Madam Pei.
He praised Li Qingluo from head to toe, saying how beautiful, intelligent, and graceful she was.
It's totally different from the way he looked when he grew up in the mountains.
He also talked about how stunningly beautiful she was and how dignified and outstanding her temperament was.
There is some truth in these words.
The Queen Mother had seen Li Qingluo's ferocious appearance when he killed his enemies, so she just curled her lips and said, "How much silver did you take from Pei Xiuzhen? Tell me."
Aunt Fang blushed, "My Lady, I really can't hide anything from you."
"I did receive a small reward. But what I said was also true."
"This Miss Li is very decisive in what she does and what she does in any situation."
"The Prince Su's Mansion is in need of a princess. Hasn't this always been a concern of yours?"
"In my opinion, she is a truly fine girl, no worse than those girls who grew up in Jinling City. Perhaps, she is even more outstanding!"
The Queen Mother: "Bah! When did I ever look forward to Xiaowu getting married?"
"He's full of tricks. It was clearly him who forced me to carry the sedan chair for his beloved girl!"
"Humph, it was originally just a small arrangement to allow that girl to make a move and put on a show."
"It was also when Li Qingluo caught up that the Zhong family was plotting a rebellion, and she actually saved me."
"Why don't I just go along with the flow and be a good person? What if I can give her the title of County Lady as icing on the cake?"
"But tell me, is it possible for me to win her over... to become my spy in Prince Su's Mansion?"
Aunt Fang: "Your Majesty, why don't you give it a try?"
"She has no one to rely on in this royal family."
"Even if I go to Prince Su's Mansion, His Royal Highness will be excited for a while, and then his feelings will cool down. Won't it be difficult to move forward?"
