"Madam, I am here to announce His Majesty’s favor!"
"His Majesty’s favor?
What does this an?"
So people did not understand Eunuch Ling’s words and whispered among themselves!
"Favor, naturally it ans so great favor for the Ji Family, probably a reward!"
Soone speculated, just as Eunuch Ling loudly proclaid.
"Now announcing His Majesty’s favor, kneel!"
As Eunuch Ling’s voice echoed, everyone involuntarily knelt down without argunt!
Hearing the word "kneel" from Eunuch Ling, Zhu Xiuxiu hurriedly scooped up the interested Xiaosuisui standing nearby and held her in her arms!
Xiaosuisui blinked her eyes, and Zhu Xiuxiu quickly gestured for silence with a "shh," then let Zhu Xiuxiu hold her in her arms, pretending to kneel, listening to the eunuch reading the Imperial Decree.
"By the mandate of heaven, the Emperor decrees: Xie Family’s eldest daughter, Xie Pan’Er, during Our inspection of Yunhang disaster victims, rendered ritorious service in disaster relief and served the Empress Dowager diligently in the palace. At the Empress Dowager’s request, Xie Family’s eldest daughter, Xie Pan’Er, is hereby granted the title of County Master of Qingping!"
Silence!
Dead silence!
Everyone’s minds went blank, County... County Master?
Did they mishear?
"County Master of Qingping! Accept the decree!"
Eunuch Ling smiled, stepping forward a few steps, bowing, and looking at Xie Pan’Er ingratiatingly.
For this is the future Empress, who deserves to be held in high regard!
"I... is this, this for ?"
Xie Pan’Er herself was stunned, the entire look of disbelief!
"Naturally, it is for you. Look, it’s written clearly here. I’ve heard when you were in Yunhang, you not only saved the Emperor multiple tis but also helped many disaster victims. The Emperor’s recovery was thanks to your ticulous care, allowing the Emperor’s health to return quickly!
Miss Xie, you are now a benefactor of our Great Han!"
Eunuch Ling said, waving his hand to let soone bring two trays, on which lay a ticulously embroidered, elegantly styled garnt.
Xie Pan’Er was startled, instinctively looking at the clothes she was wearing, then at those on the tray!
Why do they seem exactly the sa?
At this mont, everyone finally reacted, dumbfounded again.
What does this an?
Xie Pan’Er rescuing disaster victims?
How co they had never heard of it?
Xie Pan’Er accepted the decree scroll with both hands, thanked the Emperor for his rcy, and looked up to et Princess Lianchun’s smiling gaze.
"Prin... Princess!
Did you... did you know about this long ago?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I have prepared the Third Grade County Master’s uniform for you in advance?"
"Why... why didn’t you tell ?
Made think that..."
"Think what?
Think you were nothing?
So you could only stand here foolishly to be bullied?
Let tell you, Xie Pan’Er, you are under my protection, Princess Lianchun’s, whoever dares to mistreat you, I will make them pay!"
"And ! Beautiful auntie is under my protection too!"
Next to her, Grandma’s sweet little voice echoed, instantly bringing a burst of stifled laughter!
"Can’t you hold your tongue?"
Xiaosuisui just giggled, reaching out her chubby hand toward Xie Pan’Er.
"Beautiful Auntie, hug !"
Xie Pan’Er was about to reach out to hug, but Princess Lianchun suddenly pulled Xiaosuisui over.
"Who’s prettier, or Xie Pan’Er?"
Xiaosuisui: "..."
Ji Family people: "..."
Even the National Master shook his head with a laugh.
"Alright! Now that Eunuch Ling has read the imperial decree, the servant will also convey the Empress Dowager’s edict."
Nanny Xiao quickly coughed to draw attention to herself.
"May the Empress Dowager live for thousands of years!" Everyone present hurriedly knelt down!
Holding Xiaosuisui, Princess Lianchun did the sa.
Suddenly, dark clouds pressed down from the sky.
The National Master’s expression changed!
The Ji Family panicked and hurried to find Xiaosuisui.
Finally, it was Old Madam Ji standing next to Princess Lianchun, quick-eyed and deft, who tugged on Princess Lianchun a bit, silently lifting Xiaosuisui’s knee up and smoothly pulling her into her lap.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sky was imdiately clear and bright!
Everyone couldn’t help but widen their eyes!
Eyes full of confusion!
The National Master’s finger-counting motion paused, scanning the surroundings in confusion, finally fixing his gaze on the Xiaosuisui held by Old Madam Ji.
