Chapter 8 The Imperial Decree Arrives! (2)

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I know the legend of the people, and I would like to express my condolences to Lu Youruo, the fourth lady of the prime minister's office. Three days later, there will be a banquet in the imperial court. I specially invite the prime minister to bring his family to the banquet. This is it!" During the conversation, Liu

The father-in-law's sharp voice stopped immediately.

"According to the decree!" The group of people knelt down one after another, and Lu Batian stepped forward to receive the imperial decree.

Eunuch Liu looked down at the crowd: "Master Prime Minister, who is the fourth young lady of your house?" His disdainful eyes swept over the female family members present.

"Youruo!" Lu Batian saw Lu Youruo kneeling in the corner with his head bowed.

In order not to attract attention, Lu Youruo deliberately knelt at the far side and lowered his head, fearing that his face would scare the noble father-in-law in the palace.

After being called by Lu Batian, You Ruo stood up but still didn't raise her head and walked to Eunuch Liu.

"Eunuch Liu, this is the true appearance of the fourth daughter You Ruo." Lu Batian said to Eunuch Liu kindly.

"Raise your head!" Eunuch Liu ordered Youruo to raise her face.

Lu Youruo didn't dare, and whispered: "Eunuch Liu, my little girl's face makes people vomit, I don't dare to show my face to you."

Eunuch Liu didn't take it seriously, "Nothing, what haven't I seen before?"

"Well, my little girl is offended!" You Ruo slowly raised her head.

"Oh my God! Come on, hold on to the Zajia family!" Eunuch Liu fell backwards in excitement. The little eunuchs following him panicked and held on to Eunuch Liu's shaky body.

"Lower your head quickly, I'm really scaring the Zajia family to death!" Eunuch Liu calmed down and immediately closed his eyes to let Youruo's face disappear.

Returning to his majestic manner as the chief eunuch, Eunuch Liu spoke again, "Prime Minister, why do you think such a thing came out of your house?"

Eunuch Liu didn't give Lu Batian any face. All civil and military officials, who didn't treat him respectfully? He was a popular person around the emperor, so everyone had to give him some face.

"I am really sorry for my neglect of the four girls and for offending Eunuch Liu." Lu Batian dealt with Eunuch Liu without changing his expression, but he was actually angry inside.

No matter how bad Lu Youruo is, she is still from the Prime Minister's Palace and is his daughter. How can she allow a eunuch to make irresponsible remarks!

"Forget it, let her enter the palace in three days and let her wear a mask. Don't come out to scare people. It would be bad to scare the emperor!" Eunuch Liu was still afraid of that face.

"Yes, the truth is that I will let the four women cover their faces and meet the emperor without bothering my father-in-law!" Lu Batian looked majestic, but he could not match the lustful power of Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu waved his hand, "The imperial edict has been delivered. The Za family will return to the palace to resume their duties."

"Congratulations, Eunuch-in!" Lu Batian looked at Eunuch Liu's back, his eyes could not hide the cold light.

"Let's disperse, You Ruo, follow me!" Lu Batian blasted away everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"yes!"



In the study, Lu Youruo knelt and sat under the desk.

"You Ruo, dad wants to ask you, are you really... unclean?" Lu Batian asked the question hesitantly.

Ancient people, both men and women, regarded a woman's chastity as particularly important. Lu Batian believed that Youruo had lost her memory because of this incident, and was afraid of irritating her daughter again.

Lu Youruo raised his head and said one word calmly, "Yes!"

Lu Batian was shocked for a while and said helplessly: "Do you remember that you are engaged?"

"Youruo really doesn't remember anything!" Of course Lu Youruo knew that she had been sold.

Lu Batian sighed, "It seems that the marriage between you and the Eighth Prince has failed!"

You Ruo didn't speak, but she was actually suppressing her inner excitement.

"Step aside. I'll choose a better-looking mask tomorrow. Don't forget to put it on when you enter the palace." Lu Batian waved his hand for You Ruo to step back.

"yes!"
