Chapter 154 Reading the Imperial Edict 1
If I hadn't thought Xiao'er was a good kid, I wouldn't have agreed to your words. "Hmph!" King Yi muttered as he walked. This really proves the saying, "Old child, little child, they say no, no, but they're incredibly happy in their hearts." "It's been a couple of good things these past two days. I'm going home to have some drinks and wait for the results of the investigation in a few days."
Let's go, let's all go back! No more shopping today. It's time to read the imperial edict.
Okay, let's all go back together. Princess Linglan said happily, "Congratulations, Sister Yu'er, you have been promoted to Princess Changning."
Yanan also said happily, Congratulations, Sister Yuer.
The third and fifth brothers also said happily, "Congratulations, little sister, on your promotion to Princess Changning. You must protect us from now on!"
A few people chatted and laughed as they walked towards the princess's residence. Prince Xiao flanked Siyu. Li Xinyan, Hu Wan'er, and other young ladies from the imperial family watched as the princes, princesses, and noblemen surrounded that wild country girl. They were so angry that they wanted to scratch her face. What a shameless country girl! And so many royal relatives, nobles, and young ladies surrounded her.
No matter how angry the young ladies from official families were, no one paid them any attention and continued to move forward.
But the seeds of hatred were planted in the hearts of Li Xinyan and Hu Ting'er. Just wait, I will make you, a slut, lose your reputation.
At this time, a man walked out from the corner and stood in front of them. They looked at the shadow beside them, and when they looked up, they found that it was the Fourth Prince. They knelt down hurriedly and saluted, "Your servants pay their respects to the Fourth Prince."
Long Linchang said to them gently and warmly, "Young ladies, please stand up. How can a lady from the General's Mansion be so polite? Let others see her and think that I am bullying you?"
Long Linchang's gentle and graceful appearance made Li Xinyan infatuated. Wow, the Fourth Prince is so handsome and warm! His smile is so sweet.
The fourth prince has a baby face. When the fifteen-year-old boy smiles, his dimples sink into his eyes. He is extremely adorable.
Li Xinyan was bewitched by the Fourth Prince's smile and was unable to extricate herself from it, which led to her becoming a pawn for the Fourth Prince and eventually dying tragically.
Hu Ting'er, an outsider, could clearly see the disdain and indifference in the Fourth Prince's eyes.
Are the two ladies injured? This prince invites you to come to the wine shop for a visit. I wonder if the two ladies would do me the honor of visiting. I wonder if this prince would have the honor of visiting you.
Hu Ting'er was about to refuse.
Li Xinyan pulled Hu Ting'er and said, "Yes, yes, of course." "Ting'er, let's go together. The Fourth Prince is treating us, so we shouldn't refuse!" Let's go together.
Hu Ting'er had no choice but to be pulled by Li Xinyan, and several daughters of minor officials also followed.
The fourth prince led the way like a victorious rooster. He had a pure and harmless baby face, but his work was very humble.
No one knows what these people are doing and what their purpose is.
At the Princess's residence, Eunuch Su arrived to announce the emperor's arrival. Several people quickly bathed and changed clothes to receive the imperial edict.
"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: I have heard that the daughter of Bai Qingyuan of Baijia Village, Liping County, Qingzhou Prefecture, is virtuous and generous, kind and honest, of outstanding character and appearance, with a quiet and gentle appearance, dignified and wise, beautiful and graceful, lively and lovely, well-educated and well-mannered, and able to be frugal despite her wealth.
My third son, the Prince of Xiao, Long Linxiao, has reached the age of twenty and is now ready for marriage."
Princess Changning, the daughter of Bai Qingyuan from Baijia Village, Liping County, Qingzhou Prefecture, is now unmarried. She and the third prince, Prince Xiao, are a match made in heaven. They are a perfect match, so Princess Changning is betrothed to Prince Xiao as his principal wife.
The marriage of Princess Changning will be held on her coming-of-age day, with the assistance of the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Household Department.
After hearing this, everyone even stared at Siyu and Xiaowang in a daze.
I don't know what I'm thinking, what I'm feeling, how to describe it. Only Long Linxiao lowered his head in joy. Finally, she's his wife. Princess Xiao, please accept the order!
Siyu hadn't yet realized her identity. Princess Linglan, standing next to her, nudged her. "Sister Yu'er, accept the imperial edict!" So she quickly raised her hand. "Oh, oh!" "Your servant accepts the imperial edict!" Just as everyone was about to stand up, Eunuch Su continued, "Princess Changning still has the imperial edict to read!"
Everyone was confused. Oh, right, the imperial decree to confer the title of Princess has not been read out yet?
"By the Mandate of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Bai Siyu, the eldest daughter of Bai Qingyuan of Baijia Village, Liping County, Qingzhou Prefecture, is well-educated and prudent, noble yet frugal, diligently following the rules, adhering to the proper etiquette of the state, upright and harmonious, and promoting harmony and benevolence. She is hereby granted the title of Princess Changning, and awarded with a thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, and seven head ornaments: a precious coral hairpin, a jasper hairpin with a pearl-studded slant, a white jade hairpin with plum blossoms, a jasper exquisite hairpin, a hollow flying phoenix gold hairpin, a jasper hairpin with phoenix pattern, an eight-treasure jadeite chrysanthemum hairpin, a pearl and jasper hairpin, a white magnolia jade hairpin, a five-phoenix rising sun hairpin with pearls, a Burmese jade pear blossom hairpin, a auspicious cloud hairpin, a golden phoenix hairpin, a pear blossom hairpin, a butterfly hairpin, a deep purple jade hairpin, and a jasper seven-treasure exquisite hairpin."

Six sets of precious headgear, I decree!"
Eunuch Su read out the imperial edict in one breath, and as he finished speaking, everyone's heart trembled.
Not only did the emperor personally grant the marriage, he also specially conferred the title of princess on her, and gave the Prince Su's Mansion next to the Prince Xiao's Mansion to Princess Changning as her princess residence.
I heard that the original Prince Su’s Palace was majestic and grand in scale, which was amazing.
"The original Prince Su was an extremely extravagant man who was demoted for corruption. Every building in the palace is exquisite, and the details show extraordinary taste. The gorgeous decorations are dazzling, as if you are in a fairyland. The palace carries a rich historical heritage, and every stone tells a story of the past.
