Chapter 603

After hearing the words, Grandpa Quan took a closer look at the jade pendant, and then smiled and said, "As expected, it is King Yuli's favorite item. It is true that both the quality of the jade and the craftsmanship are top-quality, but this item is precious..."

Hui'an smiled and said, "The Longevity Festival is coming soon, and I asked my father-in-law to present the emperor on my behalf.

Grandpa Quan laughed when he heard the words, put the jade pendant on nicely, but said: "It's getting late, Mr. Shen will go to the palace tomorrow, so I won't bother you anymore, so I'm leaving."

At that time, Eunuch Quan had already stepped out of the flower hall, but he replied with a smile, and only said one sentence: Madam is a person who knows how to choose, and there must be great blessings...

Thinking about this, Hui'an shook her head and smiled, and in a daze, the sedan chair had arrived at the gate of the palace. Hui'an entered the square with a low eyebrow and stood behind the officials.

Master Yun was the only one who met her at Taipu Temple today, and Huian stood with him, one old and one young, which was extremely eye-catching.

The ministers already knew about this matter, and when they met someone they knew well, they would just say hello and then find their own places to stand respectfully, waiting for the time to enter the palace together in order.

When the melodious and majestic sound of bells and drums reverberated among the red walls and blue tiles, the clear voice of the servants who passed the decree on the golden platform sounded high, and after three whips, Hui An took a deep breath and followed the civil servants. Then slowly walked into the majestic place of the high hall.

The steps under his feet seemed to be endless, and there was silence all around, only the sound of orderly footsteps of the ministers, solemn and majestic, Hui An's originally quiet heart became turbulent on these high steps, one by one A feeling of awe and fear rose spontaneously.

After entering the hall, he knelt down to worship Emperor Xiankang together with all the ministers, and when the father-in-law called out from the stage to get up, Hui An followed suit, bowed his head respectfully and stood at the end closest to the door.

Emperor Xiankang seemed to be in a very good mood. Speaking of the horse plague in the frontier, he first praised Mr. Gou, and Mr. Gou came out and said a few words, but he gave the credit to her and Mr. Yun.

Hui'an knew that before she returned to the capital, Guan Yuanhe had secretly asked someone to ask for the favor she deserved from Emperor Xiankang. The doctor of veterinary medicine also spoke to Emperor Xiankang.

Today, since Emperor Xiankang announced her to the sacred Golden Temple, the matter should be sure, but now hearing Mr. Gou mentioning him, Hui An's palms broke out in a layer of sweat.

"I also heard Master Yun and others say that the horse plague can be eliminated in time, and Shen Aiqing deserves the most credit. If Shen Aiqing hadn't discovered the cause of the horse plague, I am afraid that I, Dahui, will suffer a very serious disaster this year. Shen Aiqing really I am a brilliant woman, so much like her mother!"

Hui An hurriedly came out and knelt down when he heard the words, and said: "The cure of horse plague is the joint contribution of all the officials of the Taipu Temple. I don't dare to be greedy for credit, and I hope the emperor will learn from me!"

As Hui An said, he bowed down respectfully, but Emperor Xiankang laughed loudly and said: "I have clear rewards and punishments, Shen Aiqing don't worry, all the officials of the Taipu Temple will be rewarded, only Shen Aiqing and Yun Aiqing are the most credited." , but it must be rewarded alone.”

As Emperor Xiankang spoke, he raised his hand to Eunuch Quan who was standing beside him, and Eunuch Quan hurriedly took out the drafted imperial decree, stepped forward, and raised his voice: "Master Yun, the chief minister of the Taipu Temple, Mr. Shen accepts the decree. "

As soon as Eunuch Quan's voice fell, Lord Yun who was beside him hurriedly stood up and knelt down.

Eunuch Quan's voice sounded again, Hui'an's palms were sweating, and he didn't hear a lot of what he said at all, only heard that Mr. Zhuo Shengyun was the fourth-rank Taipusi Shaoqing.Hui An was certain in her heart that Master Yun was originally from the sixth rank, but she had risen four steps in a row with this achievement, so it was impossible for her to reward her with some gold and silver things without pain or itching.

Just as Hui An was thinking about it, Grandpa Quan over there had already begun to read, "By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Fengyang Marquis Shen Qiang followed the Taizu's army to show his sincerity and made great contributions to the court. His daughter Shen Qing inherited her father's ambition and never let her go Husband, I was specially gifted by the late emperor to inherit the title of Marquis of Fengyang. According to the ancestral rule, the title of Fengyang can be hereditary. Although Shen Hui'an, the daughter of a female marquis, is a woman, she has made great contributions to the country many times, and she is still better than a man. Today I specially allow him to succeed the Marquis of Fengyang, and be qualified to take up the post of the sixth-rank imperial servant, and I hope that you will encourage me to do so. Thank you for your kindness."

Hearing the words, Hui An felt his heart pounding, and the hall seemed empty for a moment, and after Grandpa Quan said thank you again, Hui An hurriedly fell to his knees respectfully, and said in a trembling voice: "My minister, thank you, Your Majesty. Yep."

Grandpa Quan stepped down the steps and handed the bright yellow imperial decree to Hui An. Hui An raised her hands but felt that the thin brocade was as heavy as a weight. Dahui Fenghou Xihou special decoration.It is exactly the same as the imperial edict enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Fengyang Hou Mansion when the mother came to the throne...

Hui'an's eyes immediately turned rosy, and her fingers were already trembling. Was her mother also like her back then, excited and joyful for preserving the glory of Shen's residence?

Mother, did you see it?Hou Mansion, my daughter has kept it this time!
Hui'an didn't even know how he stood up in a daze, how he followed the ministers out of the hall, let alone how he got back to Fengyanghou's mansion all the way, and when Tongshi embraced her in his arms with great joy, When talking excitedly, Hui'an slowly came back to his senses.

In the flower hall, apart from Tong Shi, Wen Jingxin, Nie Shuangshuang, Xinya, Wang Mingyin and the second wife, everyone was happy. Everyone heard about Hui'an's meritorious service and knew that Emperor Xiankang summoned Hui'an to discuss meritorious service in the Golden Luan Hall today. As a reward, I came to Fengyang Hou Mansion early this morning to wait for news.

Looking at the bright smiling faces, Hui'an felt that her heart was full and swollen, full of joy and happiness, but the person who should be by her side the most was still far away. At the border, Hui'an knew that he must also feel it at this moment, and must have expected this day.

"Mother An, do we still have to salute respectfully when we see you in the future?"

"I can't call you An Niang anymore, I want to call you Marquis Shen..."

Xie Yunzhi and Wen Jingxin teased Hui An, but Hui An just stared at them, then took Nie Shuangshuang's hand, and said with a smile, "I heard that Mr. Wen transferred the official department, and I thought we could go back to Beijing together." It so happened that I arrived at Taifeng on the back foot, but you left on the front foot, and the carriage at Taipu Temple was moving slowly, so it was a step too late. I see that you look very good, but it is not much different from the last time I saw you. Why didn't you bring brother Yan over here for me to have a look?"
