Da Qin: The First Emperor wanted to train me to be the empress

Chapter 31 The imperial edict arrives (Happy National Day, may the motherland prosper
On the small bed outside Ying Xuman's dormitory in Cuiwei Hall, two maids, Zhong Xia and Chu He, who were not yet sleepy, were also whispering.

"Sister Zhongxia, what did your Highness mean by what you just said?"

Chu He finally couldn't hold back and asked the most curious question in her heart, "Did Her Royal Highness say that she will receive the imperial edict tomorrow?"

"Ah."

Zhong Xia was also curious. The Nine Princesses had lived in Cuiwei Hall for so many years, but they had never received an imperial edict.

Even if there was anything that required the royal daughter's participation, she would only send someone from the palace to convey it.

Just like today's palace banquet, a famous palace official came to convey His Majesty's message in the morning, and also led the princess to the temple.

Unexpectedly, His Highness would suddenly say that there would be an imperial decree coming tomorrow.

"I wonder what kind of imperial decree it will be? Is it an imperial decree to make our Highness a princess?"

Chu He was looking forward to it, "It would be great if this were the case. I've seen enough of the arrogance of the maids around Princess Yangzi when they meet us."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Zhong Xia scolded in a low voice, "You know that she is Princess Yangzi's maid, but you are not afraid of being overheard?"

"Hmph, she is also His Majesty's princess, why should our Highness be so angry?"

Chu He was still unconvinced and dissatisfied, "Obviously our Ninth Emperor's daughter is one year older than Princess Yangzi, why did she become a princess but not our princess?"

"How can you and I talk about royal matters at will?"

Zhong Xia quickly stood up and covered Chu He's mouth, "Aren't you afraid of implicating His Highness if you don't want your life?"

"Don't forget how kind His Highness is to us."

Chu He's mouth was covered. When she heard what Zhong Xia said again, she knew that she had lost her composure today, so she kept her mouth shut and only shook her hand to signal her to let go.

But no matter how I thought about it, I just felt a little sorry for my master.

……

Ying Xuman, who had already fallen asleep, had no idea how many people his words and deeds at the palace banquet had caused trouble to.

The first time I woke up and returned to the Daqin dormitory from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, I heard the voices of the maids coming from outside the door: "Your Highness, Your Highness, are you up?"

"Get up, come in." Ying Xuman got off the couch, and the maids brought hot water to help her wash, change clothes, and comb her hair and hairpin.

As soon as everything was tidied up and before breakfast, the eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the palace: "The imperial edict has arrived, please accept it from Princess Huazhang."

The sound startled the two maids who were cleaning her clothes and shook their hands.

Looking at each other, they both saw such expressions in each other's eyes.

"Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare last night?"

Hearing the voice of the eunuch delivering the order, Ying Xuman did not panic, but looked at Chu He beside him, "What should you pay attention to when receiving the order? Do you remember it?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, we will all remember it."

"Your Highness, let's go out quickly. Don't keep the messenger waiting too long."

Zhong Xia hurriedly urged, "If you wait too long, it would not be good for the Master to go back and say bad things to His Majesty."

"Don't worry, my father is not the one who doesn't argue between right and wrong."

Ying Xuman looked at Chu He and said, "Tell me again the steps to receive the order. I'm afraid you made a mistake."

Therefore, Chuhe repeated the steps without any doubt.

Ying Xuman followed the maid's story and went out from the dormitory hall to the front hall of Cuiwei Hall to receive the order.

Da Qin did not like to kneel down when receiving orders, he only had to bend his legs slightly and nod his head to show respect.

The decree was not much different from what Zulong dictated at last night's banquet, except that the wording was more rigorous.

Ying Xuman didn't hear clearly the long list of rewards that followed until now.

I didn't expect Zulong to be so generous and reward him so much.

She couldn't even remember all of it with her academic master's memory.

But Ying Xuman remembered that the place where he lived had been renamed.
