Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1423

Chapter 1423

Wu Changlin took the letter of severance and saw that both parties had stamped and signed it, and he felt relieved. "Don't worry, Princess. I will make special arrangements for it."

It's not like he is being asked to commit favoritism or fraud. Of course, the princess has some privileges in this small matter of procedure.

Everything should be done as quickly as possible, which will be beneficial to his handling of the case and is reasonable and legal.

Shi Anxia handed another booklet to Wu Changlin, "These are the properties that they have seized from our Ming family. Sir Wu, please take the trouble to force them to return them all."

Wu Changlin looked at the various properties on the book, big and small, expensive and cheap, everything was there, and he couldn't help but frown, "It will take some time for your subordinate to verify the origin of each property. Once the investigation is complete, I will force them to return all of it."

"Thank you, Lord Wu." Shi Anxia handed the matter over to the prefect of Muzhou, which was of course the safest option. If she did it herself, people would inevitably think she was abusing her power.

Ming Ruyi was a smart man. He stepped forward and knelt on the ground, "Sir, the prefect, Jiangcheng has a clear sky above us. Please, Sir, make the decision for the people."

Wu Changlin raised his clear eyes and said, "Of course we have to act for the people. Once we do it, no one can escape!"

Ming Ruyi: “…”

Feeling inexplicably guilty, she dared not look into the eyes of this great judge and quickly lowered her head.

All the people in the side branches were like ants on hot pot, extremely impatient.

At this time, the doorman came in a panic and reported, "Master, master, master, master... There is a eunuch at the door. Please let everyone go out to receive the order."

Ming Chengyuan didn't understand, "Eunuch? Take the paper, what paper?"

Shi Anxia and Tang Chuyu looked at each other and smiled, "Of course it's an imperial decree!

The main branch is shocked both above and below, and the side branches are shocked both above and below.

Shi Anxia stood up and said, "Lord Wu, I will go out to receive the decree first. I'll leave the rest to you."

Wu Changlin bowed and said, "I will enforce the law impartially and will not miss a single detail."

Shi Anxia said gently, "I am at ease with Lord Wu doing the job." Then he took his family out to receive the imperial edict.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.

Eunuch Qi led a group of people waiting with a smile. Just like the first time he announced the decree to the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion, he deliberately stood in front of the door, attracting neighbors and passers-by to watch from afar.

He has to give face to his master's sweetheart's in-laws.

Tang Chuyu supported his grandfather, and Shi Anxia supported his great-grandmother as they came out to greet the emperor. Behind them stood a dense crowd of people according to their seniority.

The crowds in front of the Ming Mansion were so crowded that there was no room for anyone to stand. Although the Ming family had many troubles, they were still very prosperous.

Eunuch Qi looked at the familiar faces he hadn't seen for a long time, smiled and unfolded the imperial edict and sang, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims:

Since ancient times, the way of business has been the foundation of the country and the livelihood of the people. Among the merchants, there are many diligent and honest people. Their contribution to the world and the benefit of the people through goods is the pillar of the country and the welfare of the country. Today, there is a merchant named Ming Chengyuan from Jiangcheng, Muzhou. He adheres to the way of honest business, works diligently, accumulates a huge fortune, and is kind and generous to help the poor. His virtues and righteous deeds are really a model for merchants, and I am very pleased.

In view of this, I, in accordance with the laws of our ancestors, have specially granted Ming Chengyuan the title of "Baron of Furun" to honor his merits and virtues, and to show the world that merchants can also be the pillars of the country and the people's support. I hope that after receiving this honor, Ming Chengyuan will work harder, continue to uphold the way of honest business, do more good deeds, and make greater contributions to the country and the people.

This title is hereditary. If descendants can inherit the legacy of their ancestors and be diligent and honest, they can also enjoy this honor. I decree this!"

Ming Chengyuan took the order with both hands, tears streaming down his face.

He had been looking forward to this his whole life! His daughter Mingzhen married into the Duke of Huguo's mansion just for this moment.
