Imperial Decree?
What imperial decree?
Why is it so solemn?
It had been a long time since Liao Qing Qing had received an imperial decree.
She immediately put down the book, slowly got up and approached Fu Sheng. She slightly bowed and said, "This imperial concubine[1] accepts the decree."
Fu Sheng unfolded the decree and read aloud, "Announcing the Emperor's edict, the Emperor has decreed as follows: I,[2] the ruler of heaven and earth of noble character, hope that the sun and moon will shine on the world together. In the current capital city, Liao Shi is warm-hearted, elegant, kind, virtuous and is someone who always thinks of the people. She has created a legendary achievement in agriculture ... On the sixth day of the fourth month of the tenth year of the Year of Jing Li, I proclaim her the Empress. End of the Emperor's decree."[3]
Fu Sheng read out quite a lot.
The attention of Liao Qing Qing, He Xiang and the others were focused on the word "Empress".
Empress!
An Empress!
Emperor Jing Li had mentioned making Liao Qing Qing the Empress more than once. He had even expressed his intention in the courtroom. However, it had been pushed back because his opinion was different from that of the imperial officials. She didn't expect that it would be decided so soon.
Liao Qing Qing was still a bit surprised.
He Xiang and the others were astonished!
They accompanied Liao Qing Qing, only thinking that if Liao Qing Qing became Consort Xi, they would also gain some glory. However, they did not expect Liao Qing Qing to become the Empress in one leap.
She became an Empress!
The mother of a nation!
They were all very excited.
Fu Sheng was also quite excited. Who would have thought that the unfavoured small Liangyi would become the Empress of the Wei Dynasty as the only woman who could stand beside Emperor Jing Li three years later?
As expected of the woman he thinks highly of.
(Spit)!
Is he allowed to say such things?
He can't even think about it!
If His Majesty were to find out, his measly life would be in danger.
Fu Sheng hurriedly taunted his face and said respectfully, "Your Highness, the Empress, please accept the decree."
Liao Qing Qing said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
He Xiang hurriedly went to support Liao Qing Qing.
