Highly Skilled Doctor: My Lord Wife - C214
“The imperial edict is …” “The imperial edict is …” “The imperial edict is the imperial edict is the imperial edict is the imperial edict.”
Gu Qingyi had originally thought that since the portrait was in the hands of the empress dowager and she suspected that there was something wrong with it, she might as well look for the empress dowager and confirm that there was something wrong with it. But she didn’t have the time to go out …
An imperial edict?
What was the situation now?
Why was there an imperial edict? Did something big happen?
Gu Qingyi hurriedly followed Gu Yinian and company to the entrance, receiving the royal decree.
To tell the truth, this was the first time she received an imperial edict.
In her previous life, although she was still married to that person, she didn’t receive the emperor’s bestowal. That was her heart’s greatest regret. It was just that the person kept telling her that as long as the two of them had a good relationship, they wouldn’t care about such red tape. At that time, she was also wholeheartedly in love with that man. Whatever he said, she wouldn’t even think about it.
So… He felt a little regretful, but it was just a little bit.
But now that he thought about it, one of them was the son of the emperor, and he was Princess Anping’s daughter after all. Logically speaking, bestowing marriage upon the emperor was a very natural thing, but the emperor didn’t have any expression.
The marriage between him and that person had never been arranged by the Emperor, which was why he dared to openly kill him later on.
If the emperor had bestowed this marriage to him, although it would only have been an imperial decree, at least he wouldn’t have dared to act so righteously.
“Father?”
Gu Qingyi shook her head with all her might, trying to stop herself from thinking about the past. It was all a matter of her past life, and now that she thought about it, it was useless.
However, it seemed nothing had happened. Why would the Emperor have an imperial edict?
Gu Qingyi was puzzled.
At the same time, he was worried that something had happened.
Even though she had a plan in her heart, one day, she would leave King Gu’s Estate, and at that time, she would be able to see the vast sky and the boundless seas.
However, after all … After all, this was his home, and … Furthermore, Gu Yan Nian was not bad to him …
If something really did happen, she would be worried.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
The usually expressionless Gu Yan Nian was in a rare good mood. His lips curled up into a faint smile as he lightly patted Gu Qingyi’s shoulder.
A strange light flashed in his eyes.
Gu Qingyi was slightly stunned as she foolishly looked at Gu Yinian, who was standing in front of her.
Just a moment ago, she seemed to have felt her father’s laments …
Yes, it was regret, that… The look in her eyes made her seem like a daughter whose father had seen her grow up … Then… And then my daughter will soon become the emotion of the other family…
Gu Qingyi was slightly startled, but she still shook her head with all her might.
He thought, “I must be thinking too much.”
How could her father look at her like that? Furthermore, she was only in her teens …
Very soon, the entire clan was gathered. Not only Feng Yue and the others, even the two other aunts that Gu Qingyi had only seen once in the past few days had also come out. The group of people knelt down obediently in order.
As Gu Yinian didn’t have an official wife, and although his family was managed by Lian Feng Yue, she was only a concubine. Thus, she naturally couldn’t kneel by Gu Yinian’s side, so the seat beside him was taken by Gu Qingyi.
Next to Gu Qingyi was Gu Xi.
No matter what, Gu Huayan was still just an adopted daughter, and she was one who didn’t make sense. She could only follow Feng Yue and kneel behind her, with the remaining two concubines also kneeling with them.
Behind them were the Gu family’s servants.
The imperial edict was very simple, it was just three short sentences in a row, and the eunuch who delivered the edict quickly finished reading it with the duck’s voice.
“Accept the decree.” Very quickly, the eunuch put away the imperial edict in his hand and smiled as he looked at Gu Qingyi. At that moment, all eyes were focused on her and Gu Qingyi was completely stunned. To be honest, even now, she still couldn’t believe her own ears and could only instinctively stand up to receive the imperial edict.
“Thank you, Eunuch. I have been troubled.”
Compared to Gu Qingyi who seemed to have lost her soul, Gu Yinian was in a great mood. As he thanked her, he did not forget to give a big red packet to his father-in-law.
That eunuch gently shook his head and smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum. He cupped his hands and replied, “Congratulations, Your Highness. This is a heavenly blessing.”
These people had all seen each other before. Naturally, they could tell that Gu Yinian was truly happy.
At the same time, a trace of a sigh flashed across his eyes as he looked at Gu Qingyi, who was standing dumbly by the side.
The empress dowager was like a precious treasure. None of the people in the palace had sharp eyes, so they naturally admitted defeat early, afraid that they would accidentally offend her.
However, even if he had seen them earlier, they were still very far away.
When he walked in, he realized that it was just as the rumors said. His appearance was just too ordinary.
If such a girl had been born in an ordinary family, it would have been difficult for her to find a wife.
However, this person was truly … What a great fortune.
Others might not know, but they were very clear about this. Although they had many orders, they … But this is different. In the past, if the Emperor wanted to explain anything, it would be because the people below him listened to his wishes and drafted it. However, from the beginning to the end, this imperial edict was written by the Emperor himself.
Tsk tsk, even though they were all the same edict, the people on the side might not know how big of a difference there was between them, but they all knew it very well.
Tsk tsk, this girl might not look all that good, but she really was someone that the emperor and empress dowager doted on.
“Yes, yes …” “If you don’t mind, Young Master, why don’t you go in and have a cup of wine?”
Gu Yan Nian’s face was also full of smiles. Although he had long since guessed that the Emperor would agree, he didn’t expect it to come so quickly. Moreover … Furthermore, she even directly conferred the title of a princess. This was something he did not expect …
Logically speaking, Gu Qingyi was still young right now, so even if she was engaged to be betrothed, it should only be by engagement. Under normal circumstances, if she really wanted to be betrothed to someone, it would have to wait until the wedding. Although she was the only direct descendant of the Prince’s estate and her status was extraordinary, she had still been living in the outside world since she was a child. Even if she was confirmed by her blood relationship as her own daughter, after all …
To tell the truth, the title of Canton Princess had indeed surprised Gu Yinian.
Although he came from a humble background, and had never cared too much about these, but …
“I still have to return to the palace to deliver my orders, so I won’t disturb you today. I’ll definitely come by myself another day to beg for a cup of water.” Which of these eunuchs weren’t smart enough to get into such a position? Even though Gu Yanshui was only a king with a different surname, he was still the emperor’s brother-in-law. The empress dowager didn’t like him after Princess Anping’s absence all these years. But now that the princess’ daughter had returned and the emperor had bestowed the title of princess upon her, it could be seen just how much she had doted on him. As for them … “Haha, it is not bad at all to have a good relationship with such a person …”
Gu Yinian was a martial artist that everyone was accustomed to. Even civil servants would not be accustomed to it, not to mention people like them who had no roots.
Now that he had received Gu Yinian’s good intentions, his father-in-law was in a very good mood.
He thought to himself, I really did get it right today. It’s hard to say anything else, but just based on his experience, that red packet must have contained some silver notes, and it shouldn’t be bad at all.
“Then I’ll be troubling Eunuch.”
Gu Yinian had originally only casually said a few words, but since his father-in-law had insisted on leaving, Gu Yinian naturally wouldn’t force him. He only smiled and cupped his hands.
Soon, the group of eunuchs returned.
Only the people from Prince Gu’s estate were left in the courtyard.
His deep eyes couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile as he thought to himself, “Truly a child. Normally, he would act like a small adult for a few days, but in the end, he was still just a hungry child. Even when encountering something like this, he was still unable to control himself.”
“Qingyi, keep the imperial edict properly.”
Ye Zichen coughed lightly. It was reasonable to say that mother should have come to tell her daughter about marriage.
However, An Ping had left early, and that Lian Feng Yue … He was also clear that he was only afraid of Qing Yi … So…
Forget it, she was still his daughter after all.
Gu Yinian frowned. He made up his mind and decided to speak to his daughter. Besides, he was born into the underworld … He didn’t even know how many people had died at his hands. Could it be that he would be stumped by such a trivial matter?
“Yes, Father.”
Hearing Gu Yinian’s reminder, Gu Qingyi realized that she was still maintaining the order. However, at this moment, she felt her arm going numb.
She slowly lowered her arm, but … The fingers holding the imperial edict could not help but tremble slightly.
The duck-like voice from before continued to echo in his ears: “Obey to the heavens, the imperial edict, King Gu Yinian, Princess Anping’s daughter is talented and virtuous. She is bestowed with the title of Crown Prince Lian’s Heir, Xuanyuan Liangliang.” Nian Bing’s royal sister had died young, so he hereby sealed Gu Qingyi as Princess Xianyi.
Yes, just a few short sentences.
There were only a few dozen words in total, but … However, Gu Qingyi was very clear that just these few words alone had changed her entire life.
Titles…
This matter had always been a thorn in her heart. In her previous life, there had been such a thing. It was just that … However, because of the layers of Yang Ying, it wasn’t really realized … In her life, she had been the only one who had carefully avoided these kinds of things, trying her best to not repeat the same mistakes.
However … However, even after such a long time had passed, there was still no movement. She had thought about it alone. Had she been reborn and changed a lot of things? Could it be that this title would be lost just like that?
However, she had never expected that the bestowment of marriage would be the same as the bestowment of marriage …
Furthermore … Furthermore, it was Xuanyuan Liankang.
Although Xuanyuan Lian was a pretty good candidate compared to that person, but …
