Chapter 293
Song Jiyun's first reaction when he heard the news was not to wonder why the imperial decree was given to her, but where the imperial decree came from.

She couldn't help asking Wang Hua: "Does it make any difference where it comes from?"

"Of course there is a difference." Wang Hua said without even thinking about it, "The ones sent from the Tongzheng Envoy are the orders of the Six Departments of the Cabinet; the ones sent from the Supervisor of Rites are mostly the emperor's will. It may be the imperial edict."

But what does it mean that he stopped in front of him?

Song Jiyun thought for a while, but he didn't ask, and said, "Don't be nervous, we'll find out after we go and have a look."

Wang Hua said "Yes", and accompanied Song Jiyun back to the Song Mansion with Zheng Quan.

The imperial decree was issued by the supervisor of ceremonies, and the little eunuch who came to announce the decree knew Wang Hua unexpectedly, and when he saw Wang Hua, he exclaimed. Wang Hua even did not wait for him to read the imperial decree, so he hooked his shoulders and took him aside. Ask what's going on.

Song Jiyun took the opportunity to stuff the little eunuch with a big red envelope.

The little eunuch smiled happily, knowing everything, and said endlessly: "It is the order invited by the Zao Office. Isn't it the Empress Dowager's birthday next year? The Zao Office not only recruited porcelain burners, but also recruited people who made enamel, carved red lacquer Yes, there are velvet flower makers, jewelry makers, Sichuan brocade weavers, food, clothing, housing, and transportation. There are a total of thirty or forty craftsmen who are going to give the empress dowager a good job.

"It turned out that Boss Song wasn't the one who made the porcelain. Later, I don't know who said it in the manufacturing office, and it was decided that Boss Song would come to Beijing to perform on behalf of Jingdezhen."

He said, looked at Song Jiyun curiously, and said, "It's just that I didn't expect Boss Song to be a woman."

Wang Hua seemed to have a very good friendship with him, so he slapped him on the top of his head when he heard the words.

The little eunuch grinned and said, "Brother, why are you here? Didn't Lord Yuan return to Beijing?"

Wang Hua faltered and confused the matter, and asked him when he would return to Beijing: "I will clean up the dust for you then."

The little eunuch smiled and said, "I'm going back to Beijing with the people from the Imperial Kiln Factory, and there's a waiter on the way. When will my brother go back to Beijing? Or, you can come with me."

Wang Hua didn't reply him, but asked Song Jiyun: "What is the order of the Royal Kiln Factory?"

The little eunuch said: "Let Eunuch Wan and the master Bo of the Imperial Kiln Factory bring some master craftsmen back to Beijing, it should be to discuss the matter of firing porcelain for the Empress Dowager's birthday."

Wang Hua asked him about the affairs of the palace again, seeing that there was really nothing to ask, so he let him go.

The incense case of the Song family had been set up there, and the little eunuch announced the decree. He didn't stay any longer, so he was accompanied by Wang Hua to the imperial kiln factory.

The people who watched the excitement outside Song's house rushed in, staring at the imperial decree in Song Jiyun's hand with glowing eyes, and said one after another: "Oh, so the imperial decree is like this!"

"The ancestors of the Song family are so smoked that they can go to Beijing to perform for the emperor. Boss Song's method of firing porcelain is our best in Jingdezhen, right?"

"Doesn't this decree need to be withdrawn? Then it can't be enshrined in the ancestral hall. What about the elders of the Song family? Why don't you see the elders of the Song family? This is a great happy event for the whole family! We have to set off firecrackers and open the ancestral hall."

Another person said: "No matter what, Boss Song has to create a separate chapter in the genealogy."

Song Jiyun was also a little curious about what the imperial decree looked like, but after being curious, he felt that it was nothing, but Director Wu called a few servants to buy a lot of candy and sprinkled it for everyone to eat, and set off firecrackers at the door.

Grandpa Song Shishi, President Ma and others rushed over amidst the sound of firecrackers.

"You child, why didn't you send someone to tell me about such a festive event earlier." Elder Song Song and several elders of the Song family said, "What about the angel who delivered the decree? We have to hold a banquet and treat them well." It is."

Song Jiyun has a deep understanding of "a tree that is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it", she did not intend to let people know the relationship between Wang Hua and the little eunuch, and said with a smile: "He went to the imperial kiln factory, where is it our turn to entertain?"

Grandpa Song Shiyi urged her: "Then you also go to the Imperial Kiln Factory, we will help you with the family affairs."

It is said that there will be a running water feast for the neighbors, and an opera troupe will be invited to sing.

Sometimes privilege is an umbrella.

Song Jiyun deliberately let this matter be publicized, and those in the officialdom would be more or less scrupulous about blackmailing the Songjia Kiln Factory in the future.

She asked Director Wu to take the silver to Grandpa Song Shishi, and discussed with Chairman Ma to hang the imperial decree in Fengshen Temple: "I can have today, thanks to all colleagues for your praise, although the imperial decree is for me alone , but it is also the glory of our Panorama Dezhen porcelain-making family, so that everyone can witness for themselves what the imperial decree looks like."

Chairman Ma naturally raised his hands in favor.

They went to the guild, hurriedly ordered a plaque and tried to find a way to hang the imperial decree at the gate of the guild, and invited Kong Wu's powerful kiln workers to watch for twelve hours.I had a meal with my colleagues who heard the news and celebrated.

Back home, Mr. Song Shishi and others hadn't left yet, and was accompanied by Mrs. Qian to talk in the hall. When he saw Song Jiyun coming back, Mr. Song Shishi said to her with a smile: "We discussed it just now, and we will invite Mr. Wen tomorrow. Write a commendation for you, then open the ancestral hall and hang it in the ancestral hall."

Another clan elder seemed to be afraid that she would be unhappy, and explained: "It stands to reason that it would not be too much to carve a stone tablet for you, but you are still young and have a bright future, and it is not yet time for the coffin to be finalized. , Forest of Steles, there is always a place for you."

Song Jiyun took these things lightly.

Up and down 5000 years, she is just a mayfly among them.

But people must also be able to enjoy themselves in a timely manner, and grasp them as soon as they can.

She responded with a smile and said some words of thanks.

The elders of the Song family were very excited, and they talked about Song Jiyun's grandfather and Song Erliang with great emotion, which caused Qian to shed a few more tears, which did not disperse until the third watch drum.

Song Jiyu and Song Jixue were waiting for her in Song Jiyun's room.

Song Jiyu said: "Sister, I heard Mr. Xiong say that it's cold in the north. It's spring here, but it's still winter there. When are you going to leave? I'll make you some fur scarves."

Song Jiyun smiled and said, "Young Master Xiong still told you these things?"

Song Jiyu blushed.

Song Jixue chirped at the side: "A few days ago, Mr. Xiong sent someone to bring spring tea to the second sister. He said that he picked it when he brought people into the mountains to plant trees. If the second sister thinks it is delicious, wait a few days. He will bring some more. Sister, don’t you feel that the tea we drink in our house these days is different from the old days?”

Song Jiyu felt embarrassed and went to scratch Song Jixue's armpit.

The two made a fuss, and their crisp laughter scattered in the yard.

Song Jiyun couldn't help laughing too.

Song Jiyu, who had been depressed since his father's death, became more and more cheerful, which is a good thing.

Qian took Madam Zheng and brought her several pieces of leather, saying they were for her to make a cloak.

Song Jiyun smiled and said: "There is no need to be in such a hurry, Wang Hua should know what clothes to bring, and we will talk about it when he comes back."

Mrs. Qian smiled and nodded her head. Manager Wu came over and said that Song Daliang and the eldest wife's family had come: "I also brought two uncles, saying they came to congratulate the eldest lady."
