"Eunuch Li!"

Feng Shi politely nodded to Li Baozhen, the empress' servant in front of him, but he didn't expect the other party to pass her and greet Xie Zhiwei, and then casually bowed to the old lady, "Mrs. Tai!"

The little eunuch behind Li Baozhen was holding a scroll of bright yellow imperial edicts. As soon as Li Baozhen stretched out his hand, the little servant quickly held up the imperial decree. Li Baozhen smiled and said, "I heard that last night, your mansion closed its doors to thank guests, and none of the Governor's people could enter the gate of Xie's house. The door was closed, but I didn't expect it to be quite easy to come in. Your mansion is indeed a house of poetry and rites, no matter how noble you are, you still have to obey the imperial decree."

Mr. Lu's people came here last night? Xie Tiao's face turned pale.

The Xie family has never been lofty, on the contrary, the Xie family is extremely cautious, and will not do things that are too high-sighted and easily offend others, otherwise they would not have survived three dynasties, hundreds of years.

Xie Tiao looked at the old lady suddenly, seeing her pale face, he knew it.

His old wife is really confused!

Is Lu Yan someone who can easily offend? To actually let Lu Yan have a closed door, does this mean that the Xie family has lived too long, and the Xie family is going to be full?

Different from the ancestral precept that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics in the previous dynasty, Dayong has reused eunuchs since Emperor Taizu. The first commander of Jin Yiwei was an eunuch. Emperor Taizong established the East Factory, which was in charge of the eunuchs. They visited and reported evil and evil, and reported everything to the emperor directly. The first department of the second prison.

The supervisor of ceremonies is not only in charge of the affairs of the eunuchs in the inner court, but also involved in the affairs of the foreign court, which is the so-called "no prime minister's name, but a prime minister's reality".

Lu Yan is the envoy of the general commander, Li Jian, and concurrently the supervisor of the East Factory. He serves the emperor every day. It can be said that the emperor obeys his words, powerful, arrogant, and everyone avoids him.

Offending Lu Yan, isn't he courting death?

No wonder just now, no matter how much Xie Tiao complimented Li Baozhen, he refused to accept it.

Xie Tiao handed a jade cicada from the front to Li Baozhen, but he returned it.

Xie Tiao once again thought of the marriage bestowed by the former emperor, and sighed deeply. He had to admit that the Xie family has experienced ups and downs for so many years, and now it is time to face a crisis.

A virtuous wife has few misfortunes. Since marrying Feng Shi, the Xie family has never had a single day of peace.

It's just that it's useless to think about it now?

Xie Tiao hurriedly apologized, "Last night I was on duty in the yamen. I was not at home. I didn't know that Mr. Lu sent someone to come. The concierge is so negligent. I really deserve to die. I don't know which lord came. I will definitely come to the door to apologize some other day. !"

Feng's heart was filled with apprehension, and she lowered her eyelids, not daring to say anything.

On the other hand, Xiao Shi took a look at Li Baozhen and thought to himself, he is just an eunuch, the lowest servant in the palace, and his father-in-law is so polite to this man, he really lost the integrity of a scholar.

She knew what happened last night, so she came forward to say hello, "Grandpa Li, our family's rules are that the lock is locked at the first watch, and the eldest girl hasn't come back after the hour. It's a misunderstanding for the eldest girl to be upright and orderly, but I didn't expect to neglect the distinguished guest because of this."

Li Baozhen squinted his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Xiao, thinking, how could Changyang uncle's mansion raise such an idiot? He didn't pay attention to Xiao Shi, but raised his chin and looked up at the sky, "Thank you, sir, the eldest girl is here, let's announce the decree!"

As he spoke, Li Baozhen hung the fly whisk on his arm, cleared his throat, and sang in a sharp voice, "Miss Xie accepts the order!"

The imperial decree was actually for Xie Zhiwei, Feng and Xiao couldn't help but glance behind them, feeling a bad premonition suddenly in their hearts.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" After the whole hall shouted long live, they lined up and knelt down to receive the order.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's edict said: Zhiwei, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, is beautiful and famous, gentle and graceful, graceful and graceful, dignified and rui, Ke Lingkerou, Anzhen Yeji, Yonghe pure and pure. The book will be canonized as The head of the second-rank county, titled Duanxian, gave food to three hundred households, a thousand acres of fertile land, one Huangzhuang, a thousand taels of gold, twenty pieces of brocade, and twenty pieces of decorative satin. This is yours!"

After Li Baozhen read the imperial decree, Xie Zhiwei stared blankly at the ground for a long time, feeling like a dream, how could it be? What on earth has she done that is of great merit to the country, to be able to be canonized as the county head, not to mention, she is still a county head with food.

This honor is something that even the prince's first daughter may not have.

As we all know, generally only the women of the royal family have the title of title, and that is when they leave the cabinet, they get a title of title and elevate their status, that's all.

There is a world of difference between a title with food and a title without food!

Xie Tiao also thought that he had heard it wrong, and found it incredible.

When Zeng Shiyi sent someone to inform him, he only said that the emperor had a decree to reward Xie Zhiwei, but he didn't say how to reward him. He thought, at most some rewards, but he didn't expect it to be a title, and food.

The whole room was stunned.

Li Baozhen closed the imperial decree, looked at Xie Zhiwei with a smile, and reminded, "County Duanxian, you have accepted the decree!"

Xie Zhiwei quickly came back to her senses, she raised her hands, Li Baozhen put the imperial decree into her hands, she shouted long live, "Duan Xian accepts the decree, thank you Lord Long En!"

Xie Zhiwei's etiquette is naturally impeccable, but Li Baozhen looked at her with a smile on her face, not ecstatic, but still calm and dignified, thinking to herself, this little girl is indeed the daughter of the Xie family. It is really rare to be able to still be flattered or humiliated, and not lacking in etiquette, and it is also worthy of the word "duanxian".

Li Baozhen's attitude towards her became even more respectful, and said, "Our family is here to congratulate the county magistrate, the imperial decree has been conveyed, so our family will not stay any longer!"

Li Baozhen took two steps, then remembered something, turned around and said, "Miss, let's arrange to enter the palace to thank you three days later, wait for the Ministry of Rites to deliver the imperial uniform, and the girl will dress decently before entering the palace to thank you!"

Xie Zhiwei smiled sweetly at Li Baozhen, "Thank you, Eunuch!"

Li Baozhen also felt that it was as sweet as eating sugar. This little girl saved the governor's life. She is capable and has a good temper. It's no wonder the governor will take more care of her.

Xie Tiao hurriedly said, "I have Lao Gonggong, butler Li will see him off for me."

With that said, Xie Tiao gave Steward Li a wink. Steward Li naturally understood such things. He stretched out his hand and said "please". After pinching, it contained the little cicada jade carving from the previous dynasty, and I was very satisfied.

After sending off those angels, Xie Tiao took the imperial decree from Xie Zhiwei's hand, his expression could not hide his excitement.

Who would have thought that the Xie family could produce a county head?
