Chapter 183: Yizhi Goes to the Prime Minister's Office (Part 4)
The next day.
Jiang Yaojing sent an etiquette team to send the imperial edict to the Prime Minister's Office.
Along the way, the etiquette team in the palace beat the tripod and played music. The etiquette team was so powerful that it spread all over the city of Ge.
Prime Minister Shang Rong's youngest daughter was selected and named the Imperial Concubine.
The streets and alleys were crowded with people, watching the excitement.
Prime Minister's Office.
Prime Minister Shang Rong was not in the mansion and had not yet retreated to the court.
At this time, the manager of the Prime Minister's Office hurried into the residence, headed straight to the lobby, and reported to Shang Rong's wife.
"Madam's great joy, Madam's great joy..."
"What's wrong? Tell me clearly?" Mrs. Shang Rong was stunned, full of confusion. Not only her, but the other sisters in the house were also a little confused and didn't understand what the happy event mentioned today was.
"There is news from the palace that the lady in our house was adopted as a concubine by His Majesty. Now the imperial order of the Empress in the palace is coming. The etiquette team beat drums and drums along the way, and the people of Chaoge City surrounded the streets!"
"Everyone of them is envious!"
"What?! What's going on?"
Shang Rong's wife was shocked. Shang Rong did not inform her last night, nor did she mention it to others. She just chatted with Shang Qingjun for a while and then went back to her room to rest.
"Hurry me out and have a look!" Shang Rong's wife stood up in a hurry, and the maid hurriedly helped her walk out of the mansion.
In the study, Shang Qingjun and Ji Fa were discussing rituals and music.
At this moment, Shang Qingjun's maid Qing'er hurriedly ran in and pulled Shang Qingjun out of breath.
"Miss, you...you were selected and named the Imperial Concubine..."
"What?" Shang Qingjun was shocked. She had been absent-minded today, just because she was worried about taking the concubine.
"Qing'er, what did you say? Didn't my father just handed over the list yesterday? Today I have not been summoned to the palace to meet, so how could I be named the Imperial Concubine?"
Shang Qingjun knew exactly what Qing'er meant, so he couldn't help but step forward and hold Qing'er's hand tightly and asked.
It does not match the interest process, it must be fake! Shang Qingjun kept telling herself in her heart that it was fake, it must be fake.
"I don't know, but the streets and alleys of Chaoge City have spread all over the streets and alleys. I believe that the Queen's decree will be at the mansion soon. Miss should prepare early!" Qing'er glanced at Ji Fa with some concern. After all, if her lady was named the Imperial Concubine, how would the prince of Xibohou do what she should do.
"What, how is this possible? This is absolutely impossible!" Shang Qingjun's face turned pale, and she was stunned.
"Qingjun, Qingjun, what's going on?" Ji Fa vaguely understood and couldn't help asking excitedly.
Shang Qingjun couldn't help but burst into tears. Although she didn't know why this happened, she knew that everything was over!
Shang Qingjun sat on the ground, murmured and heard the incident with Ji Fa. She didn't want to hide anything from him.
"What? No, I want to come to the palace to meet the saint. You are mine. I must not let you take you away. Even if you are the saint today, what if you think of it!" Ji Fa couldn't help but get furious and went crazy.
"The prince..."
Qing'er hurriedly grabbed Ji Fa who was jumping up and down, fearing that he would really dare to break into the palace. If this happens, it will not only be of no help, but on the contrary, he will definitely die, and Xiqi City will even be implicated!
"Brother Fa, don't be impulsive!"
Shang Qingjun's face was pale and she was extremely haggard. She just sat on the ground like that, as if she had lost her energy all at once.
"No! I must not be without you, or... or we elope, we go far away and find a place that no one can find to hide..." Ji Fa seemed crazy, and he pulled Shang Qingjun and wanted to go out.
"No! That would affect the Marquis of Xibo!" Shang Qingjun shook her head repeatedly. She must not affect Xiqi because of this.
Then Long Yan is furious and no one can afford the consequences!
"I can't care so much!" Ji Fa had completely lost his composure, and it seemed that only Shang Qingjun was left in his mind.
"If you want to leave, you have to wait a moment to see what the imperial edict in the palace is? Why did they choose me!"
Shang Qingjun regained a little rational, and she was a little confused. Why did the dignified Shang King choose her as his concubine without even seeing her? This made her feel that this matter was a bit unusual.
"No, we must not accept the imperial edict. If we accept the imperial edict and we run away again, it is equivalent to resisting the imperial edict. If we do not accept the imperial edict, we should leave the palace early. Even if we are vented, there will be no major problems." Ji Fa hurriedly stopped Shang Qingjun and refused to allow her to accept the imperial edict, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
If you accept the order, everything will be finished.
Shang Qingjun was stunned when she heard this, and she also understood the truth.
"Qingjun, don't wait any longer. Logically, once the imperial edict enters the mansion, the palace will only be given three days. Let's run away quickly. If you don't leave, you will really not be able to leave." Ji Fa pulled Shang Qingjun at this moment and kept urging.
"No, I can't leave. If I leave, the king will be furious, and the Prime Minister's Mansion may be implicated..."
Shang Qingjun is still relatively rational.
Although she was stimulated by this, she was in a downturn, but she still didn't dare to touch some of the bottom lines.
"No! Lord Shang is an old minister of three dynasties and is the leader of civil officials. The king will not do anything to him!" Ji Fa still did not give up. In his opinion, Emperor Xin would not attack Shang Rong and the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Brother Fa, are you sure?" Shang Qingjun turned to Ji Fa suddenly.
"Of course, no one can shake Lord Shang's position in the court. The king will definitely not vent his anger on the entire Prime Minister's Office because of this matter, nor will it affect the Prime Minister's status. Otherwise, where will the king's majesty be? How can he convince the public in the future!" Ji Fa clenched his fists and said repeatedly.
"Well. Will the king take his anger to the Marquis of Xibo?" Shang Qingjun took a deep breath, and his eyes slightly brightened.
"It is certain to take off your anger, but now Xiqi is strong and powerful. Even if the king takes off his anger, he will at most send someone to scold him. There will be no problem." Ji Fa said confidently.
"When the time comes, the weather is calm, and we will secretly return to Xiqi. I believe Chaoge will not know about it."
"Okay, let's pack up, let's go now." Shang Qingjun thought for a while, and finally made up his mind.
If she entered the palace like this and lost her true love, she would have no hope of living, and such a life was definitely not what she wanted.
She must fight to the end.
Ji Fa hurriedly summoned his subordinates and prepared all the items.
Everything is ready.
When the person who sent the order arrived at the Prime Minister's Office, Mrs. Shang Rong was receiving the order outside the door.
Ji Fa and Shang Qingjun secretly left the Prime Minister's Mansion from the back door and drove out of the city in a carriage.
But they didn't notice that a black mosquito followed closely behind, and finally hid under the curtain of their carriage.
In such a cold winter, there are mosquitoes wandering outside, which is very strange.
But no one noticed that even Ji Fa and Shang Qingjun in the carriage, who made the black mosquito too small!
Chapter completed!
