Four hundred and ninetieth chapters two imperial decrees
When he saw the servant who had come from the capital in a dusty way, Xi Mubai was not in an ordinary panic. How could the emperor know that he was in Guangning County and even send someone to announce the decree in person?
Could it be that Su Yueling really went to the palace to complain? What was she thinking, would she bother the emperor with such a trivial matter? What made him even more suffocated was that the emperor actually took care of it.
Although he was extremely panicked, Xi Mubai still had to have the incense table put out, and he had to try hard to pretend that he was very excited and happy.
Su Yuewei next to him couldn't help showing a look of joy when she saw the bright yellow imperial edict - was this imperial edict intended to grant a marriage between her and Mu Bai? That must be the case. Her parents should have gone to Beijing to follow her. Su Yueling mentioned her pregnancy. She is Su Yueling's cousin. Su Yueling is not only the princess of the county, but also the princess of the county. With a status like hers, she must attach great importance to face. How can she tolerate her cousin being a concubine for others? Even if It's for her reputation, and she will also help her get a status.
In the past, she saw Su Yueling receiving orders and enjoying great glory. She was envious of her. Now it was finally her turn.
If she and Xi Mubai were granted marriage by a saint, even if Xi Mubai fell in love with her in the future, he would not dare to treat her harshly.
She subconsciously placed her hands on her bulging belly, her face glowed with longing, and her eyes turned slightly red with emotion.
The person who issued the decree was not Geng Hai. After all, with Xi Mubai's status, it was really not Geng Hai's turn to take action.
The servant's smile was extremely official, "Xi Mubai, take the order."
Xi Mubai knelt down to receive the order, and Su Yuewei and other servants in the house knelt down one after another, showing respect.
The emperor's imperial edict only said one thing, and that was that the Qintian Supervisor had checked the horoscopes for Xi Mubai and the palace maid Xiu Xiu. The two were a match made in heaven, and he also chose a good and auspicious day for them. So the emperor asked Xi Mubai to come to Beijing, and My wedding to Xiuxiu will be completed on August 10th.
Xi Mubai was stunned on the spot, "Is it August 10th this year or next year?"
It was already August 2nd. If it were this year, it meant that he had to arrive in the capital before the 8th - the wedding, no matter how simple it was, had to be held two days in advance.
In order to deliver the imperial edict, the chamberlain rushed from the capital to Guangning County and ate a lot. This trip was destined not to get the reward, and he was feeling angry. He said with a smile but not a smile: "Of course it will be this year."
In Xi Mubai's mind, it seemed as if ten thousand horses were galloping past, trampling him so hard that he was almost unconscious.
He had always wanted to cancel his engagement with the palace maid Xiuxiu. For this reason, he even pretended to be deeply in love with Su Yuewei and accompanied her to Guangning County. He put down his dignity to please Su's father and Su's mother, and did everything he could.
In the end, what he got in exchange was that he and Xiuxiu's wedding was promoted in advance.
Once this wedding takes place, his life will be completely over.
Bone-breaking despair overwhelmed his whole body, and he knelt there blankly. His soul seemed to have been taken away at this moment, leaving only a body without the ability to think in the world.
Su Yuewei also felt like the sky was thundering, and her face looked as panicked as a child who had been deprived of candy.
Of course she knew who Xiu Xiu was, a lowly palace maid who was the emperor's tool to punish Xi Mubai.
Mu Bai is getting married to her? What about her? What will happen to her and the child?
Will she really have to be a nameless outhouse in the future?
Su Yuewei burst into tears. She was so happy before, but now she is in pain.
God was so unfair to her. When she was the happiest, he threw her into the abyss. No, this was not God's fault, it was clearly because of Su Yueling.
Su Yueling must not see her happiness and deliberately asked the emperor for this edict. She has already given in to Su Yueling like this, why doesn't Su Yueling let her go?
Su Yuewei almost fainted, her nails dug into the palms of her hands, but she couldn't feel the pain and felt like her heart was being cut by a knife.
"Xi Mubai, you still haven't accepted the order? Do you have any objections to His Majesty's order?"
The slightly chilling voice of the chamberlain forcefully summoned Xi Mubai out of his original state. He forced a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty's great kindness will be remembered by the common people in their hearts."
Does he dare to have an opinion? He still wants a head on his neck.
He stretched out his hands to take the imperial edict and stood up from the ground. This action consumed all his strength. He didn't even bother to ask his servants to give the eunuch a red seal, and he was not in the same mood now.
Su Yuewei, who was originally kneeling, was helped by the maid to stand up. If she hadn't been relying on the maid, she would have fallen down long ago. The servants in the house all looked like the sky had fallen.
The chamberlain's eyes fell on Su Yuewei and asked knowingly: "Xi Mubai, who is this woman next to you?"
"Could it be that she is your concubine?"
"Is it possible that you took a concubine after the emperor's marriage?" At this point, the chamberlain's voice turned harsh.
Xi Mubai shuddered, and he quickly distanced himself from the relationship and said: "She is just a friend of Cao Min and has nothing to do with Cao Min."
"She is not the concubine of the common people."
The waiter continued: "I think she looks pregnant."
Xi Mubai's face was paler than paper, "She is pregnant, and the child is not mine."
Once these words came out, it meant that even if the child in Su Yuewei's belly was born, Xi Mubai would never recognize the child.
He knew that what he was doing was not good for Su Yuewei and the child, but for him, the top priority was to save his own life. If he recognized the child, he would really not be able to withstand the emperor's thunderous wrath. The emperor's attitude had already been adjusted.
It's obvious.
Xi Mubai's words became the last straw that broke Su Yuewei's mind.
Could it be that she couldn't even keep her status as a foreigner?
She felt that her future was plunged into cold darkness, with no sunshine or hope at all.
The chamberlain said calmly: "It's best just a misunderstanding."
The chamberlain looked at Su Yuewei, "Who are you?"
Su Yuewei's lips trembled, "Mr. Su Yuewei."
The waiter deliberately showed an expression of sudden realization, "So you are Su Yuewei, the daughter of Su Dashan."
"Since you are here, it saves me the trouble of finding someone."
Su Yuewei's uneasiness deepened—did Su Yueling really accuse her in front of the emperor?
"Su Yuewei knelt down to receive the order."
Su Yuewei, who had just stood up, was forced to kneel down again, and everyone else also had to kneel down again.
"...Su Yuewei is unfilial to her friends, unkind to her relatives, and has no intention of repenting. She has repeatedly taken advantage of the princess of Weiguo and behaves badly. This edict is hereby issued to expel her from the Su family. From now on, she will not be allowed to use Su Yuewei's behavior.
If you are a family member, you should not pretend to be the princess of the Kingdom of Wei, let alone cheat."
"Appreciate this."
"Su Yuewei, take the order."
Everyone in the room looked at Su Yuewei.
Su Yuewei's vision went dark, and she fainted in front of everyone. This chapter has been completed!
