The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 119 Imperial Edict

When the eunuch who announced the decree saw that everyone was present, he coughed lightly and said loudly, "The imperial decree says, kneel!"

Everyone knelt on the ground.

Seeing everyone kneeling down, the eunuch who announced the imperial edict opened the bright yellow imperial edict and read out: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims! General Mu Jintang of Daqing is a man of extraordinary power and both civil and military talents. He has now reached the age of twenty. The daughter of the Lu family in Lielang Village is gentle and virtuous, beautiful and intelligent, and can be a good match. I hereby grant you two a marriage. This is my decree!"

Everyone shouted in unison: "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long, long live the emperor!"

Mu Jintang stood up and took the decree from the eunuch who announced it, saying, "It's rare for the eunuch to come. The luncheon is about to begin. Let's take our seats together."

The eunuch who announced the decree had received the decree before, so he smiled and said, "Then we won't be polite. We will ask for General Mu's wedding wine and share in the joy."

Mu Jintang said, "Of course, please, sir."

Mu Jintang personally accompanied the eunuch who announced the imperial decree to the banquet, and Tang Peipei was pulled back to the bridal chamber by Ye Yunshu.

"Peipei, you look so beautiful today." Ye Yunshu asked Tang Peipei to sit in the middle of the bed, and he sat on a stool beside the bed.

Today, several of Ye Yunshu's younger sisters also came, and they all echoed what was said.

"You two, one is as beautiful as a flower, and the other is charming, wow, you make it impossible for us to survive!" Wu Yaoxuan joked.

Qi Jiayue also echoed: "That's right."

Ye Yunshu spread his hands and said helplessly: "There's nothing I can do about it. This is a natural beauty that I can't give up!"

But the other two were so angry that they said Ye Yunshu was becoming more and more shameless.

In fact, the other two can be considered pretty girls with delicate features, so I am just joking when I say this.

Tang Peipei listened to them teasing each other and occasionally said a few words, and the initial tension gradually relaxed.

Qi Jiayue suddenly asked: "I heard Peipei is from Qianzhou?"

Tang Peipei nodded and said, "Yes, I have only been in Beijing for two or three months."

"Then have you heard that the drought in Qianzhou has just ended, but now there is a flood again?" Qi Jiayue said.

Speaking of this, Ye Yunshu's face was full of worry. He was not only worried about the people of Qianzhou, but also worried about the Fifth Prince who had gone to Qianzhou to provide disaster relief and had no news since then.

Wu Yaoxuan pulled Qi Jiayue with her hand and signaled with her eyes that Qi Jiayue should look at Ye Yunshu's expression and not bring up other people's affairs.

Qi Jiayue knew he had said the wrong thing, so he stuck out his tongue and said nothing more.

Tang Peipei looked at several people and was actually curious about the current situation in Qianzhou.

After this severe drought, there will be a flood, and then there will be an epidemic. Once the epidemic occurs, I am afraid that there will be very few people left in Qianzhou.

Tang Peipei also became a little worried.

Ye Yunshu said: "No one knows what the current situation of Qianzhou is. There has been no news from the Fifth Prince for more than half a month, and even the Emperor has not received any memorials from Qianzhou for a long time."

Ye Yunshu was worried that something might have happened to the Fifth Prince. When the flood occurred, according to the time, the Fifth Prince might have been in Qianzhou for several days. He just didn't know whether he had left Qianzhou at that time.

But if he was okay, he should have arrived in the capital. However, not only did he not come back, there was no news about him either.

Tang Peipei asked worriedly, "What should we do? Didn't the emperor send anyone to Qianzhou to check?"

Ye Yunshu said: "Of course I have sent someone, but there is no news coming back yet."

Tang Peipei suddenly felt very bad, fearing that things in Qianzhou were not simple.

Seeing Tang Peipei's worried face, Ye Yunshu tried to calm himself down and said, "Okay! Today is your wedding day, don't let this affect your mood."

Qi Jiayue knew that he was the one who brought up the topic, so he quickly said, "Yes, that's right. By the way, we were curious about what happened between General Mu and you before."

Tang Peipei didn't want to be affected by this, so she followed Qi Jiayue's words and replied, "I don't even know how General Mu and I ended up like this."

In fact, Tang Peipei still feels that it is a bit strange that Mu Jintang suddenly appeared in her room.

But Tang Peipei was still fascinated by that face, so much so that after the two of them got along with each other, he gradually fell in love with Mu Jintang.

"Then how did you two know each other?" Wu Yaoxuan asked.

Tang Peipei told several people how she and Mu Jintang met.

In this way, accompanied by Ye Yunshu and others, Tang Peipei spent the afternoon peacefully.

On the way, Mu Jintang asked someone to send some food to the few people when he had time. Of course, the main reason was that he didn't want Tang Peipei to be hungry.

Princess Qinghe had already returned to the courtyard of her general's mansion, where she was playing with little Tuanzi.

Nanny Yuan, who came with them, was also very curious about Princess Qinghe's attitude. She even suspected that she had been too narrow-minded before. It was obvious that Princess Qinghe liked Little Tuanzi very much.

Mu Jintang could no longer hold back her emotions, and when the dinner was halfway through, she used the excuse of being drunk and asked Ye Jingheng to help her back to the bridal chamber.

Ye Yunshu and the others had left when the dinner started. At this time, Tang Peipei was sitting alone on the bed, bored. When she saw Ye Jingheng helping Mu Jintang back, she hurried forward to help.

Of course Ye Jingheng knew that Mu Jintang was pretending, but he just didn't expose her.

After sending the man there, he said, "Please take good care of him," and then left.

Tang Peipei helped the person lie down on the bed, and turned around to pour some water for Mu Jintang.

When he turned around again, he saw Mu Jintang supporting his head with his hands, looking at him with a smile.

Tang Peipei knew that this person was probably pretending to be drunk on purpose.

He said unhappily, "Are you not drunk?" But he still handed the water in his hand over.

Mu Jintang took it with a smile, "Of course I can't be really drunk, otherwise how could I come back to spend my wedding night with you?"

Tang Peipei was annoyed, "Who wants to spend the wedding night with you? What nonsense are you talking about? You are such a shameless person."

Although he said this, he was still very happy in his heart.

Mu Jintang put the teacup away, pulled Tang Peipei over, forced her to sit on his lap, and said, "Today is not our wedding night? Why are you so shameless?"

Tang Peipei was speechless.

Mu Jintang put his arms around Tang Peipei's waist and said, "Peipei, I finally married you."

Tang Peipei suddenly became nervous again.

Although she had never eaten pork, she had at least seen a pig run, and Tang Peipei knew very well what would happen next.

Feeling Tang Peipei's nervousness, Mu Jintang said, "Peipei, look at me."

Tang Peipei looked at him and saw that Mu Jintang's eyes were deep, like a bottomless whirlpool, which made people want to fall into it.

The two of them got closer and closer, close enough that they could clearly hear each other's heartbeats.

Just as the two were about to take a step closer, there was a knock on the door.

The two separated instantly as if they had done something bad, and adjusted their clothes awkwardly.

Mu Jintang coughed lightly and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

A maid's voice came from outside, saying, "General, the emperor has issued an order, and the eunuch who delivered the order has arrived at the flower hall."

Mu Jintang and Tang Peipei looked at each other, both feeling a little confused.

Tang Peipei asked, "Didn't the emperor come here today to give his orders? Why is he doing it again now?"

Mu Jintang shook his head and said, "This decree should not be about us. I guess there may be news from Qianzhou, and it may be about Qianzhou."

Tang Peipei understood instantly and asked, "Are you going to Qianzhou?"

Mu Jintang was unsure, so she said, "Let's go and take a look first."

After they tidied their appearance, they went to the flower hall.
