The next day, when the sky had just brightened, someone came to report that an imperial edict had been sent from the palace.
The emperor had conferred the title of crown prince on Bai Musheng.
The entire Chu royal residence immediately became busy. Soon, under the busyness of the servants, an incense table was set up in front of the residence. Bai Musheng carried Zhu Menghuang, whose body was soft, to bathe and change her clothes before bringing his men to the entrance of the residence.
The Great Qi did not have the custom of kneeling down. Only during court meetings and various important sacrificial occasions would people be allowed to kneel down. In other occasions, even if the emperor was present, people only needed to bow with their hands folded. The officials with status could even sit down and discuss the Dao with the emperor. Even after the officials bowed, the emperor would return the bow.
This was similar to the Sui and Tang dynasties in history, completely different from what happened later.
Hence, even if it was an imperial edict, Bai Musheng only needed to bring Zhu Menghuang along and maintain a posture of bowing.
"Sects: The foundation of the world is only filial piety and virtue. Love comes from the banner of righteousness. I participated in the construction early. I was moved by the deep contract. I am indeed of the same virtue. For example, these beams and beams, like salt and plum blossoms, assist each other, and all kinds of government affairs are fair. He has been in the prime minister's position for a long time, and he has made great contributions to the country. He has received great hopes..."

[Can you speak human language?]
[It's so tiring to keep bending over like this…The young paparazzo won't be like this when he issues imperial edicts in the future, right?】
[I clearly understand every word, but why do I feel like I'm in a different world from them when I connect them?】
[Ridiculous!]
Bai Musheng tilted his head slightly and glanced at Zhu Menghuang beside him. Seeing that this lass maintained a solemn expression, he couldn't imagine that she was already ridiculing his father in her heart.
However, Zhu Menghuang had misunderstood.
In the end, the imperial edict was just an order given by the Emperor. It was then drafted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, reviewed by the Ministry of Central Affairs, and finally issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In other words, the specific content and format of the imperial edict had nothing to do with the Emperor himself. It was all polished and written by the officials below.
It was precisely because the province was responsible for issuing the imperial edict that the imperial edict began with the word "sect."
It was completely different from the later generation's "imperial edict".
"…Fourth Prince Sheng, your virtue spreads all over the world. Your merits are comparable to the sun and the moon. The world will only submit to you. You should stay at the foundation of the country and move to the Eastern Palace…"
Finally, when the imperial edict reached the end, the most crucial part was to confer Bai Musheng the title of crown prince.
At the same time, Zhu Menghuang was also promoted to the Crown Princess Consort.
After the imperial edict was read, the eunuch in charge of summoning the imperial edict put it away. He bowed respectfully and presented the orange imperial edict with both hands.
Bai Musheng took the imperial edict while Zhan Zhao, who was beside him, stuffed a purse into the eunuch's hand.
This could not be considered a bribe. It was just like how ordinary people would give red packets to their neighbors, relatives, and friends after a happy event. It was just a celebration.
The palace maid who passed the decree accepted it with a smile and bowed to Bai Musheng to express her gratitude.
His attitude was correct. Anyone could tell that from today onwards, no one in the world would be able to trap the King Chu in front of him…No, it should be the Crown Prince.
Sooner or later, this person would soar into the sky and wield the power of the world. These astute palace servants would not use this as a pretext to cause trouble for themselves.
Thus, in a friendly atmosphere where both the host and the guest were happy, the palace servant who delivered the imperial edict left the prince's residence.
At this moment, the entire Chu royal residence was filled with joy. Every servant girl, old woman, ordinary servant, and guard could not help but smile.
When a person attains the Tao, his chickens and dogs will ascend to the heavens. His Highness is going to the Eastern Palace, and these people will also become people of the Eastern Palace in the future. When the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, their status will be even higher.
Moreover, His Highness the Crown Prince was kind and did not put on any airs. He was extremely friendly to the servants. These people were willing to serve such a master.
On the way back to the house with Bai Musheng, Zhu Menghuang suddenly said to Lian Qiao,
"Lian Qiao, everyone in the family will receive an additional monthly allowance today. Let's make everyone happy."”
"Alright!"
Lian Qiao's eyes curved like a crescent moon, and her heart was filled with joy.
She happily replied, thinking in her heart that her wife had become the crown prince consort, and she was also going to follow her into the Eastern Palace.
If His Highness ascended the throne in the future, then Madam would be the Empress. At that time, wouldn't she become the Empress's subordinate?
Thinking about the future, Lian Qiao smiled even more.
"Huang 'er is getting better at managing the house. I was thinking that if Huang' er couldn't think of this, I would have to personally instruct her.”
"What does husband take me for?”Zhu Menghuang pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and glared at Bai Musheng."This concubine also learned how to manage a household from Mother, alright?”
[Who is the dog looking down on?】
[Isn't it just buying people's hearts? Back then, this Holy Maiden relied on her personal charm to give the order, and everyone in the entire Jade Light Fairyland followed her to smash people's places and collect protection fees, okay?】
[If he could subdue the huge Jade Light Fairyland, wouldn't a small Imperial Residence be easy to capture?】
[Humph (^)
] Bai Musheng shook his head with a smile at the sight of this girl's smug expression.
"Get someone to prepare to pack up. We're also moving to the Eastern Palace.”
