, the latest chapter is updated the fastest!

The imperial edict came too suddenly, the family was busy changing into formal clothes and setting up the incense table, and the old man came to kneel down to receive the edict with the help of Su Deng.

The other men in the family went to the yamen, studied, and all the people in the family came, kneeling on the ground.

The face of the eunuch who came to announce the edict was a little unfamiliar. The old man thought that it was not the strict and dignified chief steward beside His Majesty, so it should not be a bad thing, so he was relieved.

"Su Xinyi, the daughter of Su Chun, the left general of the left governor of Zhenbei, is prudent and mature, intelligent and agile, and has good rules and virtues. She is immediately canonized as the county lady and given the title of Yong'an. This is the imperial decree!"

The Su family was shocked when the imperial edict came out. County lady? With a title?

This...

Is the Su Xinyi mentioned in the imperial edict really their Xiaoliu?

It was the old master who came to his senses first and immediately thanked him respectfully, "This old minister thanks your majesty for your grace. Long live your majesty."

Everyone hurriedly followed suit.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict then smiled and stepped forward, respectfully placing the imperial edict in the palm of the old master, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, old Duke, congratulations, Sixth Miss."

The old master took the purse handed over by the servant and stuffed it into the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict, and said with a smile: "Please share your joy, my lord. I haven't been to the palace for a long time and I think you look unfamiliar. How should I address you?"

"My surname is Huang, and I have only recently come to serve Your Majesty. The old Duke is too polite. I have heard my master mention the old Duke many times. My master said that Your Majesty also often thinks of the old Duke's heroic appearance in the past."

The old Duke understood instantly that the person in front of him was Huang Da, Yan Deli's apprentice. Although he had never seen him, he had heard a lot about him. This person was indeed a disciple of Yan Deli, but he was much more ruthless than his master. He was known as a smiling tiger and should not be easily offended.

"It's Mr. Huang. I'm sorry to bother you to come here today. Why don't you stay and have a drink?"

Huang Da hurriedly bowed his hands, "I appreciate the old Duke's kindness, but I have to go back to report. I'll take my leave now."

"Goodbye, Mr. Huang." The old Duke said with a smile.

After Huang Da left, the family immediately became excited, staring at the imperial edict in the old man's hand and still a little bit unbelievable.

A county lady.

And there is a title!

Generally speaking, being a county lady is a very honorable thing, and a county lady with a title is really beyond everyone's expectations.

The old man took people to respectfully deliver the imperial edict to the ancestral hall for offering, and then ordered the family to have a feast, but in the end he decided to keep a low profile and not publicize it.

Although the Su family didn't tell anyone, the imperial edict was not fake. Huang Da's personal edict naturally aroused the curiosity of others, so the news that Su Xinyi was named the Princess of Yong'an County spread quickly, and people came to congratulate her one after another.

Su Xinyi herself was also confused, and she didn't expect that the emperor would make her the Princess of Yong'an County.

Xu Yurong, who got the news in the Anding Marquis's mansion, didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and her face was so ugly. Why can Su Xinyi, a village girl who grew up in the countryside, be named the Princess of Yong'an County?

Thinking about her own marriage to Shu Xuebo, she felt that her life was really miserable.

She liked Jiang Zhongqing for so many years and always wanted to marry her, and even did something to Su Xinyi, but who knew...

Thinking carefully, she became more and more unlucky since Su Xinyi fell into the water. She knew that this was a bad omen. If she had known this, she shouldn't have been anxious, and she shouldn't have made a move without understanding her character.

The more Xu Yurong thought about it, the more she hated him. She swept everything on the dressing table to the ground. What was she so proud of now? She had a long life ahead of her. She wanted to see which family would dare to marry Su Xinyi.

Who wouldn't want a gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law? She was always fighting and killing. It was simply a dream for her to marry into a wealthy family.

Thinking of this, Xu Yurong slowly suppressed her anger. She was just waiting to see what kind of good family Su Xinyi could marry!

Although Mrs. Jiang was very close to Su Xinyi, if she really wanted Su Xinyi to be her daughter-in-law, she would see if she was willing!

Not to mention Xu Yurong, Shang Yuqing was also furious. After hearing the news, she hurried back to her parents' home and complained to her mother, "I really can't understand what's so good about Su Xinyi. The county lord just said to confer her a title?"

Princess Pingjing has not been happy recently. Since her son went to the Ministry of Justice, he has not returned home for ten days or half a month under the pretext of investigating case files. When he occasionally comes back, the mother and son often part on bad terms.

All these changes started after her son met Su Xinyi. She is not only a vixen, but also a troublemaker. Princess Pingjing gets a headache just by hearing her name.

"I told you not to come back to your parents' home so often. How are you with your son-in-law recently? Control your temper." Princess Pingjing said to her daughter.

Shang Yuqing's face became even uglier when she talked about this. "What else can I do? He is so crazy after getting a beautiful concubine. He even quarreled with me for her. Mother, I can't live like this anymore. You have to make a decision for me."

Pingjing County Princess's face was not very good. She looked at her daughter and said, "That Ji was sent by the son-in-law's boss. If you send her back or send her away, wouldn't it be like slapping her in the face? Wouldn't the son-in-law offend his boss? It's just a cheap concubine anyway. It will be fine after the son-in-law gets over the novelty. Why bother to make trouble with him?"

Shang Yuqing felt even more wronged when her mother said this. She couldn't help but get angry and said, "That Ji is not from a good family. She looks like a seductive vixen and is used to pretending. Mother, don't you know that she has two different faces in front of me and in front of my husband? How can I not be angry?"

The Princess of Pingjing County loves her daughter so much that she is a little arrogant and reckless. Hearing her say this, she can know what the relationship between wives and concubines is like, and she can't help but sigh with a headache.

Children are all debts, and none of them are worry-free!

***

Although the Su family did not show off or entertain guests about Su Xinyi's title of county lady, several girls who were on good terms with Su Xinyi sent gifts.

Jiang Ruolan from Shangshu Jiang's family, Wang Yingyao from Prime Minister Wang's mansion, and Han Wenyin from Minister Han's mansion came together after discussing.

Su Xinyi was very surprised to see them. She felt that since her rebirth, most of her energy has been focused on her family, and she rarely interacted with people outside. She didn't expect that the three of them would come to congratulate her and send her gifts.

Speaking of which, Wang Yingyao and Su Xinyi are relatives. After all, Wang Yingyao's eldest brother married Gao Muhua, so the relationship is closer.

Jiang Ruolan and Su Xinyi became friends because of Jiang Zhongqing's incident. They have similar personalities. Her relationship with Han Wenyin is purely a friendship at the banquet, so Su Xinyi was most surprised when Han Wenyin came this time.

Several girls from the Su family came to accompany the guests. A group of little girls sat together and chattered.

Zeng came to help set up the tea and snacks. Seeing a group of little girls talking happily, she didn't go over to disturb them. After everything was arranged, she went back.

Jiang Ruolan said with a smile: "When I heard the news, I was at Wenyin's house. You don't know how wonderful the faces of the young ladies and wives present were when the news spread."

Han Wenyin listened and added, "My mother held a flower banquet that day to find a girl for my eldest brother. I was afraid that I couldn't take care of it alone, so I invited Ruolan to go. I didn't expect to hear your good news halfway through, so we secretly discussed to come and congratulate you."

The relationship between civil officials and nobles has always been delicate. Mrs. Han, the minister, hosted a banquet for her eldest son to find a girl, so of course she would not send an invitation to the Su family, because their family would not marry a girl from the Duke's Mansion.

Wang Yingyao took a sip of tea and interrupted, "That's right, these two secretly discussed it. If I hadn't asked, they wouldn't have taken me with them today."

Jiang Ruolan apologized, "Good sister, please forgive me. You have scolded me more than ten times. I know I was wrong. I will tell you first next time. Besides, you and Xinyi are still relatives. I didn't say it without telling you. You still want to come?"

Su Jingmo echoed from the side, "That's right, sister Wang, please forgive them."

Wang Yingyao raised her head slightly, "Okay, for the sake of the fourth lady, I'll forgive you this time."

Jiang Ruolan and Han Wenyin hurriedly thanked Su Jingmo. Their pretentious appearance made everyone laugh.

Su Chaoyan refilled tea for everyone on the side, quiet and well-behaved. Su Xixian rarely talked as much as before, sitting quietly by the side.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and they couldn't help but talk about the current gossip in the capital. Han Wenyin said softly, "Miss Xu is about to get married, are you still going to add boxes?"

Everyone was silent, looking at each other, and shook their heads at the same time.

Jiang Ruolan said, "I definitely won't go. She ruined my brother's reputation and brought shame to our Jiang family. If it weren't for Xinyi's righteous words, she might have blamed my brother. What does her marriage have to do with us? I won't go."

Wang Yingyao also said, "I won't go either. Our family has no dealings with the Xu family, and I don't have a personal relationship with Xu Yurong."

Han Wenyin sighed, "I don't want to go either, but the wife of the Marquis of Anding is a distant relative of our family, so I have to go. Because of the marriage between the Xu family and the Shu family, my mother sighed at home for a few days."

"You deserve it, you can't blame others." Jiang Ruolan snorted, "When Xu Yurong wanted to harm Xinyi, she was absolutely I never thought that one day I would be defeated by her own tricks. This is called the will of heaven. "After saying that, he looked at Han Wenyin and said, "Anyway, they are just distant relatives. Just go and show your kindness."

Su Xixian had not spoken much before, but now he interrupted and said, "That Shu Xuebo is not a gentleman. He stared at our Xiaoliu at the polo match in Guangping County Prince's Mansion. Now they are husband and wife. It's really a broken pot with a rotten lid. It's amazing!"

Jiang Ruolan couldn't help laughing. Although the words were unpleasant to hear, they were really comfortable. She used to think that Miss Su Wu was picky and strong, but today she felt very comfortable listening to her words. She was a real person.

"Miss Wu is right. I can't stand Xu Yurong's delicate and artificial appearance. These two people are a hypocrite and a real villain. They are really a perfect match. "Jiang Ruolan has always been a tolerant person, but as long as she thinks about what Xu Yurong has done to their family, it is difficult to be tolerant.

"Don't be angry, it's over, let's talk about something happy." Su Xinyi smiled and changed the subject. She hadn't received any news from Zeng Liang yet. If she could really get evidence that Shu Xuebo was plotting against Xu Yurong, she wouldn't mind sending a copy to Xu Yurong, so that the couple could fight each other.

"Yes, let's talk about something happy. Have you heard that the wife of Donglibo is arranging a marriage for Donglibo?" Wang Yingyao asked everyone.

Su Xinyi didn't recognize the person for a while. After thinking about it, she remembered that the wife of Donglibo was the former Princess of Dongli. It's been a long time since she heard about them.

"It's hard to say about this marriage. The title of Donglibo is limited to one generation. He used to be a playboy. It's not easy for him to marry someone with a good family background." Jiang Ruolan said softly, "It's a pity. I heard that Donglibo is quite motivated now, but with the former King of Dongli, who is willing to wade into this muddy water now."

"That's true. Anyway, I heard my mother say that it's not easy to look up, so you have to look down." Han Wenyin continued softly, "Mrs. Bo Tai's temperament has changed greatly now. She doesn't value family background. My mother said It’s not too difficult to say that I just want the girl to be of good character.”

Su Jingmo then said: "Dong Libo's reputation was too bad in the past. Even if there is someone he likes, he will have to look again. Once this person's reputation is bad, it will be difficult to get it back."

Everyone was lamenting that Dongli Palace was once the top noble house in the capital.

Su Xinyi remained silent. After all, she had a lot of credit for the defeat of Prince Dongli's Palace, but she did not feel guilty. After all, her last mention of Princess Dongli could be regarded as helping their mother and son, and everyone's grudges could be evened out.

"Hey, although Uncle Dong Li's marriage is difficult, it's not bad. The only pity is Jiang Lingyu. The one who is neither good nor bad is the most difficult. The last time I saw her was at the Tu family's banquet. Now she is very thin and has no health. He loves to talk and laugh like before.”

At the Tu family's banquet, Su Xinyi glanced at the third sister.

When Su Xinyi raised her eyes, Han Wenyin happened to see her. She suddenly remembered that Miss Su had chosen the third son of the Tu family, and hurriedly said: "Miss San, don't get me wrong. Jiang Lingyu didn't go to the Tu family to see each other. She and Tu Jingjia are the ones who are interested in each other." Handkerchief, then I was invited to be a guest.”

Su Chaoyan smiled sheepishly and said, "I don't care about this. Miss Han doesn't need to mind."

Han Wenyin pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Su Chaoyan and said: "Miss Tu is generous, let me tell you good news. I also have some friendship with Miss Tu, but I have often heard her mention Third Young Master Tu and the relationship between the two brothers and sisters. It’s good, Mrs. Tu also values ​​this son very much, and I heard that Mr. Tu is very knowledgeable, so it shouldn’t be difficult for him to become a scholar if he ends up.”

Su Chaoyan blushed even more. She didn't know what to say, but she felt very happy.

Su Xixian looked at the third sister's appearance and smiled at Han Wenyin: "Miss Han, please stop teasing my third sister. She has always been thin-skinned."

"Speaking of which, have you heard about the autumn banquet held by Princess Runyi?" Jiang Ruolan asked.

Su Xinyi couldn't help but frown when he heard the name, then returned to normal and shook his head, "I haven't heard of it."

"Speaking of which, the news of the Autumn Banquet came out today. Everyone said privately that Princess Runyi might have held the banquet because of your being named the county lord." Wang Yingyao thought about it and looked at Su Xinyi and said. .

They were related, so she was naturally on Su Xinyi's side.

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment. Before she could speak, she heard the fourth sister say: "Princess Runyi really doesn't know what to say. Last time she targeted our Xiaoliu on the polo field, and now she wants to target her again? Isn't she smart? sick!"

Su Xixian was really angry, and her face turned dark, "Is she staring at our Xiaoliu?"

Han Wenyin looked at the sisters of the Su family and their expressions were not very good. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She thought for a while and said: "Miss Sixth probably doesn't know yet. Princess Runyi was originally supposed to be the head of the county because of the empress." I asked for a favor in front of His Majesty, so I made an exception and was granted the title of princess."

"What does this have to do with our Xiaoliu?" Su Chaoyan didn't understand these things very well, so he asked in confusion.

Su Jingmo looked at the third sister and said, "I still don't understand. This is just a sign of being different from Xiaoliu. Princess Runyi got this title through the queen, but our Xiaoliu got it by her own ability." . After all, Princess Runyi and Xiaoliu rely on rewards and one relies on their ability. Princess Runyi has always been so arrogant that she might feel sick to death. "

Everyone:...

The truth may be the truth, but Su Jingmo said it so straightforwardly, which still made Jiang Ruolan and others dumbfounded.

"You can't say things like this outside, lest you cause trouble. After all, the Queen is standing behind Princess Runyi." Wang Yingyao said.

"I understand Miss Wang's kindness. I know that naturally I won't say this outside." Su Jingmo said, "I don't know why Princess Runyi is so crazy. Our Xiaoliu has never provoked her. , It’s really unlucky to keep an eye on our Xiaoliu.”

Jiang Ruolan coughed lightly, "It's probably because of the incident with Prince Shang. I heard that the Princess of Pingjing County was proposing marriage to Prince Shang, but she was rejected by Prince Shang. Now there are rumors outside that Prince Shang has a crush on Xin Yi."

Su Xinyi spat out a mouthful of tea, which scared her to death!

"Oh, what's wrong with you?" Su Jingmo quickly took out the handkerchief and handed it to her.

The girls hurriedly came over to clean up. Su Xinyi wiped the corners of her lips with her handkerchief, and faced everyone's concerned looks and said hurriedly: "Who spread such rumors? Isn't this blind-sighted? It is absolutely impossible for Prince Shang and I to do that. !”

Su Xixian said: "That's right, it's not like Princess Runyi didn't see that in the polo match at their house, we, Xiaoliu, were playing against Prince Shang. How could we still have a sense of belonging? I'm afraid she was a fool. "

Su Xinyi rolled her eyes, looked at everyone and said, "Princess Runyi likes Prince Shang, but she said before that Princess Pingjing is eyeing Prince Shang. Could it be that Princess Pingjing doesn't like Princess Runyi?"

"Huh? It seems to make sense. Why hasn't anyone thought about this?" Han Wenyin said in surprise.

"Princess Runyi just has unrequited love, and Princess Guangping has not expressed her position. Who takes this seriously?" Wang Yingyao said.

"That's right. When two families discuss marriage, the younger one doesn't have the final say. It's all the elders in the family who make the decision."

Su Xinyi chuckled, "Although this makes sense, how could Princess Guangping turn a blind eye to Princess Runyi's actions, and her attitude is so obvious? If such a thing happened in a family like ours, wouldn't the elders have already taught us a lesson?"

"That's strange." Jiang Ruolan frowned and said.

"It's quite strange, why?" Han Wenyin couldn't figure it out, "Speaking of which, the Guangping County Prince's Mansion and the Pingjing County Prince's Mansion are well matched, and the two families have always had a good relationship..."

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and it was hard to guess further.

Su Xinyi stopped at that point. Now she had no evidence and couldn't expose the conspiracy of the two families. However, there were rumors that Princess Pingjing County was plotting Shang Junyan's marriage. Although there were a few rumors, not many people took it seriously.

The main reason was that there was no evidence.

"Don't guess about this matter for now. We can't guess it for a while. I'm just concerned about the autumn banquet. If you receive the invitation, will you go?" Wang Yingyao asked.

"If we receive an invitation, we still have to go. It's not good to offend Princess Runyi." Jiang Ruolan said helplessly, "Even if we don't go, we have to have a legitimate reason to explain to our family."

Everyone's eyes fell on Su Xinyi. Su Xinyi looked at everyone, "Look at what I'm doing. If Yan Qiongsi dares to invite me, I dare to go. Anyway, I'm not embarrassed. Speaking of it, I'm also a new noble in the capital now, right?"

Yes, you are right, everything you say is right!

Seeing Su Xinyi so happy, everyone stopped worrying. They ate, drank, talked and laughed, and got up to say goodbye before dark.

Su Xinyi sent people away, but she was thinking about the autumn banquet in her mind. She felt that Yan Qiongsi shouldn't just hold an autumn banquet for her because of her title of county lord.

This person is just a little bit annoying. Unexpectedly, Su Xinyi and her sisters really received an invitation to the autumn banquet the next day.

The four sisters gathered together and decided to ask their grandmother what she meant.

The old lady was resting, and when she heard her granddaughter come and let someone in, she smiled and said, "Why are you here together? Is there something?"

Su Jingmo would always take the lead in such occasions, so she said, "Grandma, we received an invitation from Princess Runyi of the Guangping County Prince's Mansion, inviting us sisters to attend the autumn banquet. Because we can't make up our minds, we came to ask for your advice."

The old lady glanced at a few people after hearing this, "You are very brave on weekdays, and you still can't make up your mind?"

Su Xinyi was a little guilty and kept silent.

The old lady glanced at her with a smile, thought for a while and said, "Since the invitation has been sent, then go. If you don't go, it would be rude, but don't be afraid. Anyway, with the lesson of the last polo match, Princess Runyi must have thought twice about what to do. You sisters, remember not to separate, and don't act rashly."

What this means is that I won't offend others if they don't offend me. Princess Runyi is deliberately provoking, so they don't have to be polite.

Su Xinyi felt it most clearly. When she just came back, the Su family acted very low-key, but now, probably because Su Yi was promoted for his outstanding military exploits, and she herself was also a little famous, the Su family no longer had to be as cautious as before.

In the past, everyone's attitude towards the Duke of Qi's Mansion was subtle, mainly because the uncle was soft-hearted and Su Yi, the prince, was not very sharp, but now it is different. Under the influence of Su Xinyi, Su Yi's temperament has changed greatly and he is determined to make progress. If this continues, who dares to say that Su Yi is not the next Su Chun?

With confidence, the family members naturally don't have to feel wronged when doing things.

Su Xinyi lowered her head and smiled lightly, and she was very happy.

As for what Yan Qiongsi was thinking, you will know when you go there.
