Chapter 769: Oral Recording and Seal of Thanks
Upon hearing the call from Emperor Hongde, the imperial edict official Zhu Xun immediately responded from below: "I am here!"
"Lord Zhu, please record my words directly as an edict!"
"Yes, I obey your order!"
Zhu Xunli prepared paper and pen and prepared to take notes.
"The first generation of Qinxing Marquis Leng Yingxian followed the Supreme Emperor on his expedition, and performed outstanding feats on horseback.
The Supreme Emperor conferred on him the title of Marquis Qinxing and granted him the right to inherit the title.
His son Leng Mingzhe was mediocre in intelligence and talent, and after inheriting the title, he made no achievements or mistakes;
His grandson Leng Pingye and great-grandson Leng Xian, for two consecutive generations, not only failed to inherit and bring glory to the Marquis Qinxing Mansion, but instead invited a wolf into the house and successively attracted two generations of prodigal daughters of the Yin family, their aunt and nephew, completely ruining the reputation and glory of the Marquis Qinxing Mansion. They deserve to be killed!
Leng Xian, the great-great-grandson of Marquis Qinxing, actually committed the heinous crime of killing his wife and seizing her property, deceiving the emperor and deceiving his superiors, and has been sentenced to death in accordance with the national law.
I mourn for the merits of the first Marquis of Qinxing, Leng Yingxian;
Pained by the incompetence of the cold and peaceful industry in later generations;
I hate Leng Xian’s crime so much!
I have decided to clean up the mess on behalf of the first Marquis of Qinxing, Leng Yingxian, and expel Leng Pingye and Leng Xian, father and son, from the Marquis of Qinxing Mansion and strip them of their surnames, in order to preserve the honor of the predecessors of the Marquis of Qinxing Mansion!"
Many court officials below were delighted when they heard this!
If they hadn't taken into account that they were in the Golden Palace, they would even want to dance!
The emperor’s move is cruel enough!
I'm afraid even the Anguo Mansion would be speechless!
Before, Leng Rongyue was just the "daughter of a guilty minister".
Now, according to what the emperor said, Leng Rongyue is not only the "daughter of a guilty minister", she is also the "granddaughter of a guilty minister"!
Leng Rongyue still wants to be Prince Yu’s princess?
With her status, she is not even qualified to be a concubine in Prince Yu's mansion!
OK!
Very good!
No matter how slim the hope is, my daughter can still compete for the position of Prince Yu's wife!
Many of the court officials below were secretly happy.
However, the will of Emperor Hongde on the throne continues...
“Perhaps it is the blessing of the heroic spirit of Leng Yingxian, the first Marquis of Qinxing?
Fortunately, there is a granddaughter in the future, Leng Rongyue, who is like a lotus in a pond, emerging from the mud without being stained;
Hidden in the secular world and keeping oneself pure!
The girl has a sense of justice and can clearly distinguish right from wrong;
For many years, I have endured humiliation and endured hardships;
The daughter was not afraid of difficulties, and was resolute and patient, and finally vindicated her mother!
His daughter's behavior of great virtue and filial piety is quite similar to that of her ancestors, and she is a role model for women in the boudoir!
Now I order her to carry on the will of her ancestors and inherit the legacy of the first Marquis of Qinxing, Leng Yingxian. I have issued an edict to confer her the title of Princess Chengxian to show that the royal family has not forgotten the deceased meritorious officials and will protect their virtuous descendants!
Admire this! "
After Emperor Hong De finished speaking, there was a long, long silence in the Golden Palace, and you could hear a pin drop!
No, it’s not that exaggerated. At least you can still hear the subtle rustling sound of the pen hitting the paper.
The officials in the Golden Palace were dumbfounded!
what happened?
Today they were trying their best to solidify Leng Rongyue's reputation as the "daughter of a guilty minister" and to trample Leng Rongyue into the mud so that she would never be able to stand up again!
Instead of... instead of letting her inherit the legacy of her ancestor Leng Yingxian!
Why was she given the title...something like "Princess Chengxian"!
Before they could come to their senses, they heard Emperor Hong De asking questions again...
"Lord Zhu, have you taken note of my orders?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have written down every word!"
"Okay, draft another decree for me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Xun quickly spread out the paper and picked up the pen.
"In recent days, many of my beloved ministers have repeatedly questioned the imperial decree I wrote earlier to grant marriage.
Now it seems that my imperial edict has not expired.
Leng Rongyue inherited the bloodline of the first Marquis of Qinxing, Leng Yingxian, therefore, she is still the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Qinxing, and not the "daughter of a guilty minister"!
I have cleared her name today, Leng Rongyue is still the legitimate daughter of Marquis Qinxing!
They say good things come in pairs!
Then I might as well issue a new imperial decree to grant marriage, and issue two imperial decrees to Leng Rongyue at the same time.
If anyone with ulterior motives uses this as an excuse to criticize her endlessly, they should be punished for defying the imperial authority and disobeying the imperial decree!
Zhu Aiqing recorded..."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Xun responded.
Leng Rongyue, the granddaughter of Leng Yingxian, the first Marquis of Qinxing, is a woman of both virtue and beauty, with a kind heart and a filial heart that touches the world. With her own weak strength, she seeks revenge for her deceased mother.
She restored the glory and honor of the Marquis Qinxing Mansion for her ancestors and possessed the talent to revive the Marquis Qinxing Mansion. She is truly a role model of Jingyue women!
Today, I specially grant Leng Rongyue to marry Prince Yu, Xiao Jingyu, as his principal wife. From now on, we will be monogamous, stay together for the rest of our lives, and grow old together!
Admire this! "
Zhu Xun put down his pen, reviewed the two imperial edicts from beginning to end, and then respectfully presented them to Emperor Hongde.
Emperor Hongde read it carefully and ordered Feng Guang beside him to use the imperial seal, and the two imperial edicts became effective.
Emperor Hongde ordered Yu Feng, "Yu Feng, after the court is dismissed, you will go to the Anguo Mansion with Duke Anguo to read out my two imperial edicts. There must be no mistakes!"
"Yes, I obey your order!"
Yu Feng bowed and accepted the order.
Duke Anguo Fu Peng stepped out of the class, followed closely by Fu Yinglan and Fu Yingze. The three of them stepped forward to express their gratitude.
Fu Yinglan and Fu Yingze both performed great salutes;
Duke Anguo Fu Peng bowed to Emperor Hongde and said, "Your Majesty, on behalf of the sage Leng Yingxian from the Marquis of Qinxing Mansion, I would like to thank you for your grace!
I, on behalf of my deceased daughter Baozhen, would like to thank the Lord for his grace!
I, on behalf of my granddaughter Rongyue, thank you for your grace!"
At this time, Xiao Jingyu also took a step forward and stood beside Anguogong Fu Peng, bowing and saying, "I, your son, thank you, father!"
