Fortunately, she said more, otherwise she would have to bear part of the Wei family's anger if the emperor asked.
Thinking like this, she also remembered the Wei family.
The emperor's expression looked better now. He looked at the pile of memorials at hand and sighed: "Beichuan cannot live without the Su family. Su Qiruo must carry the Su family."
The Su family has great prestige in Beichuan, and Su Qiruo has a serious feud with the Tatars. No one is more suitable than her to guard Beichuan.
It would be fine if he was really just a dandy staying in Kyoto to raise him, but the emperor would still have to worry about finding someone from the court to replace Old Duke Su and guard Beiguan.
But if Su Qiruo can take on the important responsibility, the emperor will be happy and at ease.
As long as the Beichuan Su family is loyal, she is willing to give them a little more dignity.
The eldest maid bowed and did not dare to respond to the emperor's words.
The emperor himself can decide whether Su Shinu will stay or go, but if others speak, it will not make the emperor suspicious.
Having served the emperor for so many years, no one knows the emperor's temperament better than she does.
Even if she wants to speak for Su Shinu, she should stay in critical moments.
“Afu.”
“The slave is here.”
“Get the imperial edict.”
Su Qiruo had dinner with the concubine before returning to Prime Minister Si's Mansion. Si Qianling sent her admission letter.
“How come it's so fast?”
Su Qiruo remembered that both the queen and the concubine had said that it would take three days to get the result.
“You are the only one who entered the Imperial College this year, and the masters will review the examination papers faster.”
Their teacher didn't come to teach in the morning. He only assigned the task of practicing calligraphy and left. I think Cai Jijiu was called to mark the papers at that time. “Then I will go to school with you tomorrow.”
After saying that, Su Qiruo came in instead of Su Yun and asked her to write a reply to Her Royal Highness and not to follow her around the capital tomorrow.
The emperor also granted the concubine three days' leave, but it seems she won't be able to use it.
Early the next morning, the whole capital was buzzing with rumors about what happened at the gate of the Imperial College yesterday.
Those who had secretly ridiculed Su Qiruo as an orphan girl no longer dared to mock out loud. They had only said that deliberately to suppress the Beichuan Su family's too-high self. But really, who has the qualifications to ridicule a hero? And after that?
Especially what Su Qiruo said, if they dare to talk nonsense again, and Su Shi Juror comes to them with a Su family gun to teach them, who can be their opponent?
And Su Qiruo had just had breakfast, and before she could leave the house, the imperial edict from the palace arrived.
The person who came to announce the decree was Aunt Afu, the eldest maid next to the emperor.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was busy, setting up cases and receiving orders, and everyone in the mansion was present.
Even Prime Minister Si Lao did not expect that the emperor would issue an imperial decree so early. Su Qiruo is now the youngest protector of the country in the history of Beiyan.
On the other hand, the order to reprimand Wei Ziyao and Wei Zinian has also been sent. The emperor is clearly slapping Shun Anhou in the face.
Shun'an Hou knelt there with a pale face and listened to the emperor's oral instructions. The words of the palace maid who delivered the decree kept echoing in his ears.
“Marquis Shun'an, the emperor asked you to discipline your children well, and don't forget your original intention.”
What is the original intention?
She only remembered that the emperor asked her when he bestowed upon her the title of Marquis of Shun'an: "Do you know my true feelings?"
She knelt down and responded: "I know this, and I will never let you down."
Shunan, shunan, you must be shun to be safe.
If something goes wrong, you will naturally feel uneasy.
The emperor is beating her!
Turning around, the Marquis of Shun'an ordered his men to beat Wei Ziyao twenty times and imprison Wei Zinian in the ancestral hall, making him kneel for three days and three nights to reflect and understand before he could come out. (End of chapter)
