In the early morning of the third day of Zhu Pingan s leave, the red sun rose from the east, the fog was dispersed by the sunlight, and the dew reflected a rising sun on the turquoise leaves, awakening the sleeping earth ……
Early in the morning, the buns little maids Painting Er and Qin Er blushed and lowered their heads to carry two buckets of hot water into the bathroom, and again blushed even more and lowered their heads to walk out.
“It’s all your fault, causing me to get up late ……Painting girl they must be secretly laughing ……”
On top of the embroidered couch, Li Shu stretched out her white lotus root jade arm to support her body, her pink white jade fingers pulled the corner of the quilt to cover her body, revealing a face full of blush like a peach from behind, a pair of eyes filled with spring water, watery and capable of drowning people to death, pouting her rosy little mouth complaining to Zhu Pingan, who was getting out of bed.
Zhu Pingan sniffed, the movement of getting out of bed was a beat, the old face suddenly red, yesterday also said that we should be moderate, but the result is that this morning, another meal was added ……
The next one will not be an exception.
“Cough cough, I’m going to take a bath first ……”Zhu Pingan coughed and fled as if he had walked into the bathroom.
“Ya, Zhu Pingan, I want to wash first ……”
“Cough cough, then it’s good to wash together.”
“Liar ……Which one wants to wash together with you, last night you tricked me into washing together, and as a result you, a bad person who harbours a sin, took the opportunity to do bad things ……”
……
Shaoqing, the bedroom burst of petulant cry, followed by a return to calm, only the faint sound of water came ……
At this time, Lin Huai Hou has already gone out to go to the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Appointments, and other have a division to report their duties.
However, in the Linhuai Hou front foot riding to the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Appointments and other departments to report duty, the Linhuai Marquis House ushered in a team of eunuchs who came to declare the decree.
The eunuch who declared the decree held a volume of black shaft three-coloured decree, followed by four small eunuchs, one of which also held a volume of decree, whose bearings were also black ox horn shafts. In the fifth eunuch followed by a team of forbidden guards, playing the bright yellow of the dependency, the arrival of a line of people so that the Linhuai Marquis House of the concierge and the outer courtyard steward caught off guard, the steward did not come to ask carefully will be greeted with a good, their own panic and send a person to report to the Marquis House of the old madam.
There are two officials in the house, one is just back from Yingtian to report duty Linhuai Marquis, just went out; one is on leave at home Zhu Pingan, do not know whether to go out.
But to whom did this eunuch from the palace come to announce his decree?
The old lady of Linhuai Marquis House asked the steward who came to report, to whom the eunuch came to announce the decree, but the steward did not know.
The old lady also asked the eunuch hand holding the decree is what colour what kind of, the concierge only by memory replied that declared the decree of the eunuch holding the decree of the black shaft three-coloured decree.
Hearing this, the old lady’s heart bottomed out, black shaft three-coloured imperial decree, which is given to the fifth grade or above.
In the past, when the old Marquis Linhuai was still alive, he showed off to the old madam the imperial edicts in the ancestral hall, and said that the imperial edicts were the symbol of the emperor’s power, and also the symbol of the official’s status. Depending on the grade of the official, strictly differentiated, issued to the first grade of the official’s bearing for the jade shaft, issued to the second grade of the official’s for the black rhinoceros horn shaft, the third grade of the shaft for the gold sticker, the fourth and fifth grade of the black ox horn shaft; the fabric of the holy decree is also very concerned about the grade of the holy decree to the fifth grade of the holy decree below the colour of the holy decree is a single white damask, only to the officials of more than five grades of the holy decree will have a variety of colours, such as the three-coloured, five-coloured and seven-coloured and so on, the more the colour of the holy decree, the more the colour of the holy decree.The more colours the decree has, the higher the rank of the official receiving the decree.
The more colours the decree has, the higher the rank of the official receiving it. Above the fifth rank, of course, it is for the Marquis of Linhuai, although Zhu Pingan is young and talented, he is only a sixth rank.
Therefore, once the old madam heard that it was a black shaft and three coloured imperial decree, she rightly assumed that it was for the Marquis of Lin Huai, so she panicked and sent someone to chase after the Marquis of Lin Huai with a fast horse.
Fortunately, Lin Huai Hou is fat, the horse runs slowly, Lin Huai Hou’s subordinates catch up with Lin Huai Hou, Lin Huai Hou just out of the public marquis street not far, after hearing the palace to pass the decree, Lin Huai Hou panicked vigorously whipped crotch steed back to rush, a small section of the road, the horse is tired of foaming at the mouth.
“Marquis, the nobleman from the palace is here to announce the decree to the fifth aunt, the old madam is worried that you have missed the time of the debriefing, and asked me to hurry to tell you that the nobleman from the palace said that you don’t need to go back.”
However, before Marquis Linhuai could rush back to the Marquis’ residence, the second wave of Marquis Linhuai’s subordinates rode after him again.
Hearing this news, Lin Huai Hou’s psychological shadow area can’t be counted out for half a day ……
In Linhuai Marquis Mansion, when the old madam learnt that the people from the palace had come to announce the decree to Zhu Pingan, she hurriedly sent Zi Cuckoo to go to Listening to the Rain to find Zhu Pingan and Li Shu.
Purple cuckoo all the way to hear the rain, and then from the buns little maid painting that the two parties still in the bathroom bath it ……
What kind of bath is it early in the morning?
The absurdity of the official family is not much to talk about, Zijuan, who has been serving in the Marquis House for a long time, also knows something about men and women.
Zijuan was first stunned, then lowered his head and spat, a small face full of red, previously thought that the fifth aunt is a cat that does not eat fish, did not think that the original fifth aunt is also a ……
What can be greater than a holy decree? Zijuan urged Painter to go to the bathroom to tell the two parties the news that the palace had come to announce the decree.
Soon, it made Listening to Rain Xuan a flurry of chickens and dogs.
Of course, the outer courtyard of the Marquis House is also a burst of chickens and dogs, although the old lady was disappointed that it was not to come to her son to declare the decree, but after all, Zhu Pingan is also the aunt of the Marquis House, is considered to be half of the Marquis House, and so, leaning on her crutches, fighting the spirit of the housekeeper assigned to hasten to set up.
Set up tables, incense stands, burn incense ……
By the time Zhu Pingan pulled Li Shu, with maids and old mums, hurriedly rushed to the front yard from Listening to Rain Xuan, the two men’s hair was still wet, it looked like they had just come out of the bathroom and hurriedly changed their clothes.
“Quickly go to the front yard, don’t let the nobles in the palace wait for a long time.”
Linhuai Marquis old madam is a traditional and accustomed to, seeing the two people walking with wet hair, the wrinkles on her face are a few points deeper.
“Hmm.”Zhu Pingan coughed awkwardly and nodded in response.
A group of people went together to the front yard, the eunuchs in the front yard who had come to fight the palace to declare the decree were sitting in the main hall with tea, the leading eunuch was not Feng Bao who had come to declare the decree before, and the other four small eunuchs were all unfamiliar with each other as well.
But this is not strange, the palace eunuchs have seven or eight thousand it, Zhu Pingan do not recognise is normal.
“My humble servant heard that the eunuch came to announce the decree, in order to show his respect to His Holiness, he specially bathed and changed his clothes to come to receive the decree, I tired the eunuch to wait for a long time ……”
Zhu Pingan quickly walked a few steps, bowed long and arched his hand to the leading eunuch in order to express his apology, and said in a loud voice.
When the old madam of Linhuai Marquis House heard this, the walking stick in her hand shook a little.
At the bottom, Zi Cuckoo and other well-informed maids sniffed, and their perception of Zhu Pingan reached a new height.
“Where where where, little Lord Zhu is overstated ……”The leading eunuch smiled and reached out to help Zhu Pingan get up, his face was full of spring breeze, a peaceful mass, not at all displeased because he had waited for quite a while.
