Mrs. Ji's face alternated between green and white, looking really brilliant.

She didn't even have the strength to get up and thank him. She only felt her entire body go limp.

Marry the Prince Yan, then wouldn't Mo Weinong be the Princess Yan in the future? It was truly above everyone else.

With such an identity, not to mention her, even her husband would have to be respectful to her.

He Gu saw Mo Weinong accept the decree, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Mrs. Ji still kneeling on the ground, unable to get up.

"This is …" He Gu was a little curious, the others all stood up one after another, but this woman who looked to be over a hundred years old was still unmoving.

And judging from his clothes, he couldn't be a servant.

But in the entire Female Envoy Palace, Mo Weinong was the only master.

"This is the wife of Ministry Of Rites's assistant, Lord Ji Ji Yun." Mo Weinong smiled and replied, "Mrs. Ji is a very kind person, seeing that I'm alone now, she rushed up to be my matchmaker."

He Gu was an intelligent person, he had already seen Mo Weinong like this before in front of the Emperor Xuanwu, how could he not notice her displeasure and hostility towards him?

He immediately raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Mrs. Ji is really warm-hearted, I just wonder, which family is Mrs. Ji going to talk about?"

"No, no, no. I was just... I just came to ask." Mrs. Ji finally regained her senses and stood up.

Facing this eunuch in front of the emperor, she didn't dare to be impudent at all.

He Gu replied with an "Oh". Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something as he smiled and said, "Speaking of Lord Ji, there's something else that came to my mind."

"What is it?"

"Today, the Emperor gave two orders for the bestowment of marriage, other than the one for Prince Yan and the one for Female Envoy Mo. There is another possibility, that he has also gone to Ji Mansion. "

Mrs. Ji raised her head in shock, "The imperial edict went to Ji Mansion?"

"That's right, the Emperor personally gave the imperial edict to give Second Young Master Ji and the Eldest Miss a marriage. Although Ji Gongzi and Eldest Miss Mo had an engagement, it was already confirmed. However, with His Majesty bestowing them a marriage, that would be a supreme glory. It would be like adding flowers to a brocade. Many people wouldn't even be able to look forward to it. Mrs. Ji should hurry back to the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest and celebrate with Lord Ji. "

Mrs. Ji could not hear the rest of the words clearly. Her mind was buzzing.

Mo Weinong pursed her lips and endured her laughter. She felt that this He Gu was really an old man who knew how to hit snakes the most.

For some people, the bestowal of marriage by His Majesty was indeed a joyous occasion, but for the Mrs. Ji, it was definitely not something worth being happy about.

Once the imperial edict was given out, the marriage between Ji Haolin and the Emperor was already a foregone conclusion. Even if He Li were to marry him in the future, he would have to hear the imperial edict.

It was now even more impossible to change wives. Even the Third Prince and Feng Yihai had to calm down and didn't dare to make a move.

Not to mention, with this imperial edict, as a mother-in-law and without any title, even Mrs. Ji had to weigh the pros and cons of it.

This imperial edict truly was a source of worry for her.

Similarly, there was also Ji Lanyu, who had been hiding outside the door all this time. Her clothes were still dirty, and her entire person seemed to be in a sorry state.

Before she could even react to Mo Weinong being bestowed a marriage with the Prince Yan, she was immediately beaten into a mess by Second Brother and Mo Qianyu.

She didn't like Mo Qianyu at all now. She used to think that she was the Eldest Miss of the Marquis Mansion family, and that her status was already honorable compared to the daughter of her, a vice minister of Ministry Of Rites.

But after that, he gradually understood from his mother's disgust that Mo Qianyu was not worthy of her second brother at all.

However, now …

Ji Lanyu's face was warped, but everyone in the hall had their own thoughts.

He Gu was done speaking, he accepted the silver from Mo Weinong and left.

Mo Weinong then smiled and turned to look at Mrs. Ji, "Looks like I have to disappoint Mrs. Ji, luckily that bracelet is not mine, Mrs. Ji should return it to my elder sister, since there is a name on it. If someone else had seen this, they would have thought that you had swallowed Big Sis's dowry. "

Mrs. Ji couldn't even maintain the smile on her face. She glanced at Mo Weinong, swung her sleeves, and left the hall with large strides.

Mo Weinong slightly narrowed her eyes, a small stone suddenly appeared in her hand out of nowhere and shot towards the crook of Mrs. Ji's leg.

"Ah …" Mrs. Ji's knees went weak as she fell to the ground.

Ji Lanyu anxiously ran over and helped her up, "Mother."

Mrs. Ji gnashed his teeth in pain, especially when she heard the obvious laughter from behind him. She immediately gritted his teeth and used Ji Lanyu's hands to prop him up, then limped out of the Female Envoy Palace.

When the two of them arrived, they were full of ambition and enthusiasm, and were even calculating the Female Envoy Manor beneath their feet. When they left, one of them looked ashen, while the other looked miserable.

Did this count as stealing a chicken until it turned into rice?

Mo Weinong beamed as she looked at the imperial edict in her hand, thinking of another imperial edict from the Ji Mansion s.

Mn, then most probably it was issued on the same day by the Prince Yan.

He could be considered to have cut off Ji Haolin's unrealistic whims, and let him live a good life.

Mo Qianzhu, who was standing behind her, was still in a daze.

Weinong and Prince Yan, were they really going to get married?

Hm? Wait a minute.

Mo Qianzhu took a step forward and asked curiously, "Weinong, I don't think there's any specific date for the emperor's arranged marriage, this …"

"What?" Mo Weinong felt it was strange that she would want to say something but hesitated.

Seeing that she still had an expression of confusion, Mo Qianzhu could only pull her to the side and said softly, "Have you forgotten that the old lady won't live past two months? You are also the young lady of Ji Mansion, if you go there in the future, you also have to be filial. "If you can't get married within these two months, you will have to stay filial for a year. When the time comes …"

At that time, the Prince Yan would not even know if he would be able to live until then.

Mo Weinong blinked and suddenly realised, she coughed and said, "About that, this matter was not decided by me, I will discuss it with Prince Yan." She sounded a bit guilty. After all, the old lady didn't only have two months to live, but a thousand years to live.

Mo Qianzhu sighed, the matter was already like that, she did not know what to say.

However, he was still a little worried, "Weinong, you really … Do you want to marry the Prince Yan? Although he had become the pride and love of the Princess Yan, however … "What should we do in the future?"

"In the future, I'll just take it one step at a time." Mo Weinong felt very ashamed, all of them were worried for her. She was going to be a widow soon.

Looks like I have to properly chat with Prince Yan and find a way to keep the masses in check.

But, the Prince Yan did not wait for him. Not even in the afternoon, he waited for Cen Si.
