Although the Su family are ordinary farmers and don't know much, every ordinary person knows what the imperial decree is. It is the decree of His Majesty the Emperor.
Su Yongqiang and Su Yongshun were still kneeling on the ground, looking up at Lu Qingyun. After Lu Qingyun finished speaking, Su Tang took out a bright yellow scroll, which turned out to be an imperial edict.
Lu Qingyun first knelt down and saluted the imperial edict in Su Tang's hand. When the Su family saw that all the adults were kowtowing, they also kowtowed together, so that Su Tang was the only one standing.
"Your Excellency, please ask the Advocate to clarify the decree!" Su Tang said again.
Of course, what Lu Qingyun knelt down was not Su Tang, the county owner, but the imperial edict in Su Tang's hand. However, this edict was given to Su Tang by the emperor, and Su Tang had already received it. Everyone else had to kneel down when they saw the edict.
What was given to the Su family was not an imperial edict, but an order from the Ministry of Rites. After hearing this, Lu Qingyun stood up, took out the order from the angel before, and said to the Su family, "Su Jiatun Su, Qinghe Town, Qingyuan County, Qingzhou Prefecture His Majesty's Tang, who is handsome and smart, was personally named a good county master by His Majesty years ago. Is the head of the Su family here?"
Su Yongqiang was actually still covering his head. How could their Tang Nier become the head of the county? But when he heard him being called, he quickly knelt forward and said, "The head of the Su family, Su Yongqiang, is here!"
"The Su family has raised a good daughter. She will assist the county master more in the future and live up to His Majesty's kindness!" Lu Qingyun said all these clichés.
When Su Yongqiang heard this, he knelt down and kowtowed, "The common people understand!"
At this point, Lu Qingyun's responsibilities have been completed, and the decree of the Ministry of Rites will continue to be combined with Su Tang's household registration.
"Please put the imperial edict away. I have put this decree from the Ministry of Rites together with the county master's new household registration. Please do not disturb the county master's conversation with his relatives."
Lu Qingyun and the Su family announced the Ministry of Rites' decree, and then spoke politely to Su Tang.
Hearing this, Su Tang nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Lu."
"Good Lord, you're welcome!" Lu Qingyun said again, and then went out, leaving Su Tang to talk to the Su family.
"Brother Qiang, Brother Shun, and Chang Le, hurry up and help the elders get up!" Su Tang said after Lu Qingyun left.
Su Yongqiang and his group were suddenly taken to the county government office by the government officials. They were originally on tenterhooks, but now that they knew it was such good news, they really couldn't react.
On the contrary, Su Changle was younger and smarter after all. He didn't get up when he heard Su Tang speak. He knelt and looked up at Su Tang, "Is Aunt Tang the county mistress now?"
Su Tang heard Su Changle ask and nodded, "What empress? It's just the title of the county head."
When Su Changle heard what Su Tang said, he immediately became happy, "That's also the county mistress. Chang Le has met the county mistress, so our Su family is the county mistress's family, right?"
After saying this, Su Tang glared at him, "Even if this is the case, you have to live a down-to-earth life, you know?"
Su Changle touched his head and said, "Hey, the county mistress taught you a lesson!"
"Look how smart you are!" Su Tang smiled and said, "Hurry up and help a few tribesmen grow old."
Fortunately, with Su Changle talking, the rest of the Su family finally came to their senses. A golden phoenix really flew out of their grass nest, and Su Tang was already the head of the county.
Not only did they not get up, Su Yongqiang and the others kowtowed to Su Tang, "I have met the county mistress!"
In theory, Su Tang is considered a noble after being granted the title of County Lord. It cannot be considered wrong for them to salute Su Tang, but after all, they are all relatives of the same family. Most of these people are Su Tang's brothers in terms of seniority.
