Chapter 203 The Decree
Since the beginning of the indefinite vacation at the beginning of summer, Jiang Xiyuan took the matter of being released from the capital to heart, and only hoped that the affairs of the court and the Central Committee would be settled as soon as possible, so that he could mention it in advance.

In the same way, if the incident between the DPRK and China is resolved, there will definitely be shortages in other places, and it is not difficult to find a reason to leave Beijing.It is worth thinking about where to take up the post. Don't be too close to Beijing, but don't go to that poor place.

Su Zhen got the letter from Lin Yu from Li Tan, and when Jiang Xiyuan went to the Planting Flower House that day, he also met the eyeliner arranged in the six departments of the three provinces.The so-called eyeliner is actually some officials who have joined the new department or do some clerical work. These people are young and do not have a strong background. Bundle.

Behind Jiang Xiyuan is the emperor, and it is safe to be loyal to the emperor.When the barriers are broken and the veterans are brought down, he will be a veteran in the future, which is much more hopeful than a little mixed seniority.

Jiang Xiyuan roughly sensed some clues from some of the things they said.There are too few books in Qingcheng County, and the situation is too good. It really doesn't look like what it should be under the current situation.Nothing is nothing, and something is probably a big deal.

I also heard that Su Zhen made an order to fill the vacancies in the inner court for the purpose of drafting.Now that the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China has drafted an edict and issued it to all the counties, he couldn't help worrying about Yong Wei again, and he didn't know if the girl could handle it.

Since the beginning of Xia Chu's vacation, he has been sleeping until the sun rises every day, which is a rare laziness.After a few days of fun, I started to feel lazy.When I had nothing to do, I went out to buy some rubbings and came back, and finally started to overcome my own shortcoming - writing is too ugly.

After waking up early this morning to take a shower, just as the paper was laid out and the ink was grinded, I heard someone knocking on the door.She thought it was Jiang Xiyuan who came to look for her, but after counting the days, it was not Xiu Mu today. No matter how slow that guy was at work, he still missed his appointment every day.

Xia Chu walked out of the room and raised his voice to ask who it was, and the person outside replied with a slightly excited tone: "It's me!"

She did not like such an answer at all.It's me, who knows who 'I' is?He couldn't help but frowned, and felt that the voice was quite familiar.Before she could figure out who it was, she had already reached the door with a pen in her hand. The moment she pulled the latch, she suddenly remembered it again, and her heart skipped a beat.

An Liang was dressed in a fine and elegant crimson interior palace attire, wearing a bow with a hanging tassel, holding a whisk with a smile on his face, and when he saw the door opened at the beginning of Xia, he bowed slightly and said habitually: "Xia Chu opened the door. Son, long time no see."

"Xiaoliang?" Xia Chu was stunned for a moment, and he called him that out of habit.After crossing his line of sight and looking behind him, he was even more stunned.

Behind An Liang, a beech-colored carriage is harnessed by a tall bay red horse. The curtains of thin bamboo strips are drawn down, and the sky-blue wind-pressing belt is hanging down.On both sides of the carriage stood two men, four women, and six palace officials, and behind them were four solemn soft-armored feather guards, carrying red-feathered spears.

She thought it was Su Zhen who was in the car, she squinted her eyes and looked at it calmly, but she saw that there was no one there, she felt a little puzzled.

Anfengfang is not a place of wealth and honor, and I have never seen such a battle on weekdays. There are already a group of people around the alley, discussing in low voices what happened, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing .At this moment, Xia Chu opened the door, and all those gazes came over, making Xia Chu feel a little uncomfortable.

It was only for a moment. After An Liang greeted her, she covered her mouth again, and changed her mouth with a smile, "Cough, look, I've followed my tongue. Now I have to change my name to Miss Xia."

Xia Chu was startled suddenly, and took a step back, "Miss Xia?"

An Liang nodded, still smiling, and said: "Miss Xia doesn't know something, but Xiao Liang's surname is An, his full name is An Liang, and he is a former imperial eunuch in the palace." Chu squeezed his eyes, wanting to wait to see Xia Chu's surprised expression when he figured out who the master he was serving was.

But after Xia Chu was stunned for a moment, he didn't give him the expected response. He just lowered his head slightly and called out to Mr. An in a low voice.

Xia Chu looked calm on the surface, but his heart was already turned upside down.If it wasn't for the fact that Su Zhen's identity had not been known before, it would have been difficult to maintain peace on this face.

An Liang called her Miss Xia, which meant that Su Zhen already knew that she was a daughter at all.Now that the imperial eunuch came here with this array and wearing such clothes, it was obvious that Su Zhen did not intend to hide his identity anymore.

So what does he want to do?Just to declare his identity, it is really not possible to make such a big commotion.When Xia Chu thought about it, his heart sank. He looked up at An Liang, and asked a little cautiously: "Eunuch An, the emperor asked you to come, is it..."

An Liang didn't expect Xia Chu to be so safe, now that he knew Su Zhen's identity, he didn't feel nervous, he was slightly taken aback, but then laughed again, before answering Xia Chu's words, he only praised: "Miss Xia is really a bit tolerance."

After finishing speaking, he gestured sideways, and the two maids followed him into the courtyard with things in their hands.After An Liang went in, he took a rough look around. He didn't come in a few times when he accompanied the emperor in those days, but at this time, he looked at it with a bit of emotion.

He fixed his eyes on the grapes, and thought of the one that the emperor asked him to remove from Fengyi Palace before the wedding, he couldn't help but secretly sighed.

It's not easy for his emperor.Although he hadn't said anything these days, he could see the loneliness in his eyes, and even the joy of a big wedding couldn't be warmed up.He feels sorry for the emperor, when will this hopeless yearning end?
Unexpectedly, at the turn of events, this Xia Chu turned out to be a daughter.This can be regarded as keeping the clouds open to see the moon, right?The corner of An Liang's mouth unconsciously held a smile, just like the same expression he had seen the emperor these days.Not to mention him, even the air in the palace seems to be much lighter.

He turned around, pointed to a flat piece of ground in the courtyard, and said to the maid: "Just put this here." The maid agreed, put a cushion on the ground, and stepped aside.

"I don't think Miss Xia has an incense table at home, that's all, there is no need to stick to that ceremony." An Liang said, taking a piece of bright yellow cloth from the tray provided by the maid, "I said that Miss Xia is a very lucky person."

Seeing Xia Chu standing in the courtyard in a daze, an older court lady who looked like an aunt stepped forward and carefully helped Xia Chu's arm, "Young lady must kneel down." Hem, bending over and waiting for her to bend her knees.

"Kneel down?" Xia Chu's heart trembled, he straightened his body even more, he turned his head to An Liang and said, "Xiao Liang..., Eunuch An, is this an edict?"

"Yes, yes." An Liang nodded frequently, "It's a great honor to be canonized by the imperial pen personally! You even asked me to announce the decree, afraid that those who don't have eyes will neglect the girl."

Xia Chu was in a daze, opened his mouth, and blurted out: "But I don't want to enter the palace."

The imperial decree in An Liang's hands has already been unfolded, but his smile froze when he heard this, and he blinked in confusion, "Miss Xia, this is a blessing that others can't even get by burning incense, why..."

Xia Chu lowered his head and smiled wryly.Yes, you can't even ask for it.But when I wanted to ask for it, I couldn't ask for it, but now when I don't need to ask for it and don't want to ask for it anymore, it is a blessing.

"Minnv..." She pursed her lips, changed her name, and struggled to decide on her words: "Minnv has no profound family background, no outstanding talent and virtue, but she was fortunate enough to see Tianyan by chance. Your Majesty..., The emperor fell in love with her wrongly, it's just that women don't want to be concubines or concubines."

When An Liang heard this, he laughed again. Seeing that the aunt was still bending over to help her hold her hem, he took a step forward and pressed Xia Chu's shoulder, saying: "That's not true. The emperor also thought about it, Xia Chu Just listen, girl."

The aunt tugged down the hem of the clothes with a wink, and Xia Chu was affected by the force, so she knelt down on the cushion, looked up at An Liang, not knowing what consideration he was talking about.

An Liang shook the imperial decree in his hand, cleared his throat and said in a loud voice: "Zier Xia's daughter's name is Chu, she is talented, talented, and wise. She is used to be promoted to be a servant of the fifth grade, and to serve the pen and ink. Today, it is announced to the world, Xian Let me hear it, I hope you will not accept it for me, and do my duty and be loyal. This is it."

The words were too complicated, Xia Chu listened to them as if she hadn't heard them. Although she didn't hear any words like concubines, she didn't understand what they meant.

An Liang closed the imperial decree, and seeing Xia Chu's bewildered face, he couldn't help smiling, raised his hand to drive away the maid who was kneeling beside him, and helped Xia Chu to stand up.He handed the imperial decree to her hand, and said: "Although she is only serving from the fifth rank, the girl specially appointed by the emperor is only serving the pen and ink, and will not work hard."

Xia Chu lowered his head and looked at the shining cloth in the book, "Female officer? From the fifth rank... Dian servant?"

An Liang walked a few steps to the side and looked back at Xia Chu. Xia Chu followed him knowingly, and then he lowered his voice and said, "I know the girl well, so I won't beat around the bush when we have something to say."

"Mr. An, please speak."

"Miss Xia, don't blame the emperor. In fact, the female officer has also wronged the girl. It's just that the girl has a low background. If she really becomes a concubine directly, she may become a target of public criticism."

Hearing this, Xia Chu felt dumbfounded. He squeezed the imperial decree and pressed it to An Liang's chest, "Eunuch An, if the women don't want to enter the palace, it has nothing to do with grievances or not. Please also explain it to the emperor."

An Liang, however, jumped half a step away as if being burned by the imperial decree, and said in surprise: "You can't do it! You can't do it! Disobeying the imperial decree is a serious crime, girl, don't play tricks!"

"Eunuch An." Xia Chu stretched out his arms and took a step forward, anxious in his heart, and didn't care to consider those plain words, and said straightly: "The emperor is not the one who makes things difficult for others. If I resist the order, Will the emperor really kill me?"

An Liang's expression darkened when he heard this, and he pushed back her hand, saying: "Miss Xia, I don't know if the emperor will cut you off. But if you do this, it will hurt the emperor's heart too much. The emperor has one heart Missing you, thinking about you, how you have endured these two months, do you know? I have thought about so many things for you when the country is in trouble, for fear of wronging you, but now you are holding on to the emperor's love and insisting on breaking it Imperial decree, what do you make the emperor think? If you want the emperor to lose the face of the king of a country, you are all 'unwilling'?"

He paused, looked at Xia Chu, and thought about the difficulty of the emperor.I feel that the king of a country is so affectionate, how can there be such a person who is not warm and does not know how to praise?So the tone became more and more displeased: "The decree has been promulgated by the inner court, and there is absolutely no reason to withdraw it. If Miss Xia is really this cold-hearted, she should show it to the emperor. Our family is only here to proclaim the decree."

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves, and said to the aunt, "Turn the temples and change clothes for servant Xia Dian."
