Chapter 372 Doctor Ma Enters the Ancestral Hall
Anyway, Yang Jingchen and Yang Chengchen were very happy at this moment, and immediately bowed to express their gratitude, as if they were afraid that the emperor would regret it if they were a second late.
"Thank you, Father!"
"Thank you, Grandfather!"
The emperor looked at the two cheerful people in front of him. He was also a little happy, but he still said two words in a joking tone: "Promising!"
Yang Chengchen looked up at his royal grandfather and praised him sincerely, "Royal grandfather, you are so good, many times better than my father."
"Work hard and keep your eyes open." Yang Jingchen didn't care how his son tried to please his father. As long as there was plenty of work to do, he had no objection.
The emperor did not get involved in the affairs between the father and son. After reviewing the book in his hand, he said, "You can leave the palace after you finish reading it! I am tired and will go to rest first."
The emperor left with Eunuch Zhuo after he finished speaking, his back showing no hesitation at all. This was completely unlike the emperor who had not wanted to appoint a crown prince before.
After the Emperor left, the Crown Prince and Yang Chengchen glanced at each other and resigned themselves to their work. These memorials couldn't be delayed; they had to be read today.
No matter how surprising it was that Doctor Ma was going to enter the ancestral hall of Princess Funing, Zhao Lingmeng continued to live her life as usual. This was mainly because she had many capable people around her, especially Qiufang and Qiunian, who had been doing business outside and had returned to help.
Therefore, Zhao Lingmeng didn't have to worry about anything. At most, she would make some decisions, but the plans and other things were already prepared by her subordinates. She would just occasionally offer her own ideas.
For a time, all the nobles in Yuanjing were proud to receive the invitation from Princess Funing's Mansion and were waiting for that day to come.
The Jin and Wenyuan Marquis Houses, which had not received any invitations, were in a state of embarrassment. Equally angry was the current wife of the Marquis of Wu'an, Jin.
Because a few days ago, when Zhao Anping received the news that his younger sister had not sent an invitation to the Jin Mansion, he knew his younger sister's attitude. So that night, Zhao Anping went to the main courtyard and formally informed Jin, "This time, when going to the Funing Princess's Mansion, she should stay at the mansion and not go."
Jin had already chosen her clothes, so you can imagine how shocked she was when she heard the news.
After being shocked, Jin looked at Wu'an Marquis Zhao Anping in disbelief: "My Lord, did I hear correctly? I don't need to attend such an occasion."
Zhao Anping was no longer willing to even pretend to be nice, and said bluntly, "Well, don't bother me anymore."
Jin looked at Zhao Anping with pleading eyes. At this moment, she felt extremely uneasy. She was leaving without her wife. "My Lord, I promise to behave myself and not cause any trouble this time, okay?"
"Jin, I have tolerated you for a long time. The only reason you are still in this position is because of the child. I am informing you, not discussing with you." After Zhao Anping finished speaking, he turned around and left, without giving Jin a chance to refute.
Jin originally wanted to say, "If she doesn't go, the two children can't go either." But before she could say it, Zhao Anping had already left.
She could only sit on the ground in disappointment. Jin had never regretted anything before, but now she really regretted it. If only she had known earlier, but who can know in advance in life?
Zhao Lingmeng didn't know that her eldest brother, Zhao Anping, had been struggling for so long over whether to allow Jin to visit her. Even if she knew, she wouldn't have cared much about it. But she was certainly happy that the annoying person wasn't around.
When everyone is looking forward to it, time will pass faster.
Zhao Lingmeng got up early in the morning and washed and prepared. The whole house was decorated in white. Of course, the dress Zhao Lingmeng was going to wear was also white.
Everyone in the mansion wore white formal attire, which gave it a sense of ceremonial funeral ceremony.
Zhao Lingmeng would eat breakfast first and then wash up. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he changed his clothes and got them dirty after eating.
After breakfast, Zhao Lingmeng started to take a shower and change clothes with the help of Qiuyue and the others.
They would first come to the ancestral hall in the morning and bring the tablet with Doctor Ma's name into the hall. Then, when the envoys from Longling Kingdom came to the Yuan capital for peace talks, they would throw a tortoise shell to welcome the tablet out, and Zhao Houyang would hold it and go to tour the Yuan capital.
When Zhao Lingmeng finished packing and came out, the three brothers Zhao Houjing were already waiting at Menglinyuan.
As soon as Zhao Lingmeng came out, the three of them began to salute in unison, "Greetings to Mother!"
Zhao Lingmeng looked at Zhao Houyang, who was wearing pure white clothes, and Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houming, who were wearing off-white clothes. She nodded with satisfaction: "No need to be so polite, let's go!"
As soon as Zhao Lingmeng said this, Menglin Courtyard instantly became lively, and the trumpeters and drummers started working.
Zhao Lingmeng is now the patriarch of their branch, so she walked in front, and next to her was Qiuyue holding the family tree.
Then behind was the tablet of Doctor Ma held by Zhao Houyang himself, with people playing suona and drums on both sides. Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houming walked at the back, and the rest were servants.
Originally, Yang Chengchen was also going to come so early, but Zhao Lingmeng thought about it and felt that it was her personal wish to have Doctor Ma included in the family tree of their Princess Funing.
It's okay for her to morally blackmail her own son, but she should forget about kidnapping the emperor's grandson who has a bright future! People also change. Maybe when they were young, they felt proud of this, but maybe when they grow up, it will be a shame!
Zhao Lingmeng didn't want to dig such a big hole for herself and her descendants, so it would be better for them to just do it themselves.
While Zhao Lingmeng and the others were busily carrying Doctor Ma's tablet to the ancestral hall in the mansion, Old Madam Wei and Zhao Lingmeng's second sister-in-law were already watching from the front yard and the kitchen.
Just waiting for customers to come.
But this time is different from the past. In the past, when someone held a big banquet at home, everyone wanted to go early so that they could chat with familiar people or make friends, as they might need them at some point in time.
This time, everyone wanted to watch the excitement first before leaving. It felt a bit awkward to go into the Princess's Mansion and then come out to watch the parade.
But Zhao Anping and Zhao Anwei arrived early in the morning, and even Yang Chengchen arrived early. The three of them were now drinking tea and chatting in the front yard, waiting for someone to come and help entertain the guests.
After Zhao Lingmeng arrived at the ancestral hall, she took Qiuyue in first. The main reason Qiuyue was able to enter was because she was holding the family tree.
The rest of the people knelt outside the ancestral hall.
Zhao Lingmeng first read an article about Doctor Ma's life, then talked about his achievements in his life, and finally she agreed to let Doctor Ma join her clan's ancestral hall. He did not need to change his surname and still kept the surname Ma, and was enshrined in the ancestral hall as Zhao Houyang's adoptive father.
Then Zhao Lingmeng took the pen and family tree from Qiuyue's hand and wrote Doctor Ma's name parallel to Zhao Lingmeng's, making her her peer.
