173 The Imperial Edict Has Arrived

Xiao Meili had not slept the entire night, but perhaps it was because she was in high spirits, she did not look tired at all. She held Zhao Panpan’s hand and smiled. “It’s still early, why don’t you rest more? The Emperor really doesn’t know how to feel sorry for others at all. Although I told you to use some means, I didn’t ask you to be so radical and get together with the emperor so quickly. If this was discovered, the whole family would be implicated by you. However, it doesn’t matter. The eunuch who will deliver the imperial edict will be here soon. Once you enter the palace, my wish will be fulfilled. In the future, once you have children, you will be able to gain a foothold in the palace. When the time comes, you should visit the empress more often. She’s loved you for so many years, so she’ll definitely forgive you.”

Xiao Meili could not hide the joy between her brows. When Zhao Panpan returned yesterday, she could tell that Zhao Panpan’s walking posture was not right. Her whole body seemed to be filled with lust. It was likely that the emperor could not control himself and did something he should not have done with Panpan.

Zhao Panpan did not say anything. Xiao Meili was the one who taught her how to seduce the emperor, right?

“No matter what the crown prince says, don’t bother with him. Tell him that in the future, your child will become his right-hand man and help him defend his country.” Xiao Meili could not contain her joy. She took the comb and helped Zhao Panpan comb her hair again and again.

When Zhao Panpan heard that her child would assist the crown prince, her hands trembled slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, “Mother, you are so good to the crown prince. If I didn’t know that the empress is the crown prince’s biological mother, I would have thought that the crown prince is your son. Even the child I gave birth to has to assist him.”

!!

Zhao Panpan’s nonchalant words shocked Xiao Meili, and she immediately composed herself. She knew better than anyone that Zhao Panpan could not marry the crown prince.”You silly child, mother is also doing this for your own good. Think about it, you don’t have the crown prince in your heart. If you marry the crown prince, you will also be aggrieved for the rest of your life. However, if you are married to the emperor, your status is unspeakable. When you give birth to a child in the future, the child’s age difference with the crown prince is too big. Your children will definitely be able to snatch the throne. You have to know that by the time your child is of age, the Crown Prince will already be middle-aged.” Xiao Meili’s calculations were perfect. Zhao Panpan entering the palace could help the crown prince, she could give birth to a child and stabilize her position, and also disgust that b*tch, the empress!

Xiao Meili’s calculations were very precise, but she did not know that the human heart was the greediest. Zhao Panpan did not say anything, but hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the door, “The imperial edict is here! The imperial edict is here! Madam, someone from the palace has come to invite the Madam and Miss Panpan to receive the imperial edict.”

When Xiao Meili and Zhao Panpan arrived at the main hall, the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict was politely sitting down and drinking tea. A bunch of gorgeously dressed ladies was accompanying him. Everyone looked at Xiao Meili with envy. Although they had many daughters, none of them were as outstanding as Zhao Panpan.

“According to the emperor’s decree, the daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Panpan, is extremely intelligent, virtuous, and gentle. She is the model of women today and one of the few extraordinary women. I hereby confer her the title of the ‘Pure Consort’.” The eunuch had a smile on his face. “Miss Panpan, please accept the decree. I still have to go to the Zheng family to announce another decree.” Zheng Shan’er of the Zheng family had a bad temper, but the emperor fell for her.

The maidservant helped Zhao Panpan up. Zhao Panpan gave her a look, and the maidservant immediately stuffed a purse into the eunuch’s hands.

“I also have a friendship with Zheng Shan’er. Now that we can enter the palace together to serve the emperor, it’s also fate. What position does Zheng Shan’er have?” Zhao Panpan clutched her handkerchief, her expression not looking good.

The eunuch said with a fawning smile, “Her position is not as good as yours, far from it. You are a consort and Miss Zheng Shan’er is only a Lady of Bright Deportment. Miss Panpan, you’re the daughter of the marquis and the sister of General Zhao Ruifeng, but Miss Zheng Shan’er…” Although the eunuch did not finish his words, Zhao Panpan immediately understood that although Zheng Shan’er’s status was a little low, the Emperor was still very satisfied with her. If it was not for the restriction of birth, her title would be higher.

When the eunuch left the Zhao residence, the whole of Jing City was in an uproar. The news had also reached the palace. The palace maids who had happily gone to inquire about the imperial edict returned to the empress’ palace. Their legs were weak and their faces were as white as paper.
