Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

It rained heavily all day and stopped in the evening.

Zhantai Palace returned to its normal state, as if nothing had happened.

The air after the rain is particularly fresh, and the moon and stars are hanging in the night sky again. The stars are shining brightly, and the moonlight shines on the pond in the garden, making it sparkle.

Xu Zhihui and He Zhijing sat by the pond and watched the goldfish for a while. After chatting with He Xiaoer, she felt much better.

He Zhijing held her hand, looked at her emotionally, and said, "I really want to get married with you right away. Waiting five months is really too long."

Xu Zhihui smiled and said, "I think five months is just right. Maybe Du Yueqiu and Xia Ji can make it. It would be so lively if the three of us held a wedding together."

"It would be great if we could catch up," He Zhijing said with some doubt, "but, can we? Du Yueqiu seems to be quite indifferent to Xia Ji."

Xu Zhihui nodded affirmatively and said, "I know Yueqiu. She may appear dull on the outside, but she is actually very soft-hearted. I am confident that she and Xia Ji will be successful."

“That’s a really good thing.”

The two of them walked in the garden for an hour. When they returned, they saw Shangguan Jing leaning leisurely on the corridor outside the door, with four maids standing not far behind her.

Judging from the maid's clothes, she was obviously from Mingyue Palace.

Shangguan Jing saw the two people coming back, stood up straight, and greeted them from afar: "Ah Hui, Ah Jing, good evening, you are back from your walk."

Xu Zhihui and He Zhijing hurried over and asked, "Shangguan, are you okay?"

"It's okay," Shangguan Jing said angrily, "I shouldn't have done that last night. I shouldn't have drunk alcohol. I slept for half the day and missed things."

She didn't know she was possessed by Yu Xian and thought she was drunk.

She didn't wake up until noon and regained consciousness, but Yu Xian had already left her body and escaped.

Xu Zhihui said: "It's okay, you just drank a little, you may be tired."

Shangguan Jing nodded, "I also remember that I only drank a little, so it's not a big deal that I slept so deeply. Fortunately, Queen Yan is safe and sound, otherwise I would really be dead."

Xu Zhihui smiled slightly, "Don't blame yourself."

He Zhijing looked at Shangguan Jing's situation and asked, "Are you going up now?"

"Yes," Shangguan Jing nodded, "Ah Hui, Princess Minghui asked me to pick you up. Two carriages have been prepared outside."

"Okay, wait."

Xu Zhihui went into the room and told everyone.

She squatted beside the bed and whispered in her mother's ear, "Mom, I'm going to take you to a place you'll love. Oh, and you can meet Princess Minghui."

"Mom, I have something else to tell you. Princess Minghui and I are the same age, and we have the same birthday. Isn't it fate?"

Zhang Qiuxia had been leaning to one side, but after listening, she turned her head. Although her eyes were still tightly closed, she kept repeating, "Birthday... Birthday..."

Xu Zhihui was overjoyed, "Yes, yes, we have the same birthday."

"Okay... okay..." Zhang Qiuxia said again.

Everyone was very happy to see Zhang Qiuxia's reaction.

Xu Zhihui was relieved that her mother was getting better.

Xu Shan said: "Ah Hui, I'll leave Mom to you."

He Zhijing came over and hugged Xu Shan and Xu Zhihui at the same time, "Mom, you will definitely get better."

Feng Tutu and Ran Xiaoque asked, "Sister, can we go up together?"

Xu Zhihui knew that the two girls were very filial, so how could she refuse their wishes? She thought Princess Minghui probably wouldn't mind, so she agreed.

Several maids helped to carry some clothes, and then Mr. Xu carried Zhang Qiuxia out and put her in a carriage outside the door.

The carriage was very spacious and there was already a bed inside.

A group of five people, plus four maids, sat in two carriages and slowly drove towards the mountains behind the city.

Although the journey was not far, the carriage moved at a very slow pace and it took nearly an hour to reach the beautiful shrine.

Han Jinfeng kept looking out the window.

Xu Zhihui felt that the teacher must have something on his mind, so he asked, "Teacher, what are you thinking about?"

"Oh," Han Jinfeng turned around, "Xiaohui, after this matter with Queen Yan is over, I will say goodbye to you."

Xu Zhihui was surprised. Of course she wanted the teacher to stay, but all good things must come to an end, and the teacher would leave one day.

"Teacher, where are you going?"

Xu Zhihui immediately changed her mind and guessed where Han Jinfeng wanted to go. "Teacher, are you going to look for your sister?"

"Yes." Han Jinfeng nodded.

She sighed, "I realized that I was wrong back then. I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a sister and didn't trust her unconditionally and protect her. It's reasonable for her to hate me."

"Teacher, where are you going to find her?"

Han Jinfeng shook her head. "I don't know. But I must find her this time, no matter how long it takes."

"She went astray, and I, as her sister, bear a lot of responsibility. I will admit my mistakes to her until she forgives me."

"Of course you will, you will get back together."

Xu Zhihui is an emotional person. She understands her teacher's feelings very well and sincerely hopes that the teacher and her sister can reconcile.

Han Jinfeng smiled calmly, "I don't know how long it will take, maybe a long time, or maybe a lifetime."

There was something sad about her words.

Xu Zhihui fell silent, not knowing what to say.

"Don't worry, Xiaohui, I will definitely attend your wedding."

"Thank you, teacher."

When the carriage arrived at the Beautiful Temple, Jiang Minghui, Kong Ling, and Jiuer were already waiting at the door. When they saw the carriage coming up, they came up to greet it.

Shangguan Jing got off the carriage and bowed to Jiang Minghui, "Princess Minghui, why are you standing outside the door? It's very windy outside."

"It's okay, I'm not weak."

She walked to Xu Zhihui's carriage and asked, "Zhihui, is Mother Xu here?"

Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "I'm coming."

Feng Tutu and Ran Xiaoque beside her saluted obediently, "Hello, Princess Minghui."

Xu Zhihui quickly introduced: "Minghui, they are my sisters, Feng Tutu and Ran Xiaoque."

Jiang Minghui looked at the lovely pair of girls, a little surprised, "Sister?"

Ran Xiaoque was very proud and said casually: "Yes, although we are adopted sisters, there is no difference between us and biological sisters. Sister loves us very much."

Jiang Minghui smiled slightly, "I see. Hello, sisters."

Xu Zhihui lifted the car curtain and said, "My mother is here."

Jiang Minghui walked forward and took a look. She saw a pretty woman lying on the bed in the car. It could be seen that Mother Xu was also a beauty.

As expected, like mother, like daughter.

Jiang Minghui called softly: "Auntie..."

Mother Xu was in a deep sleep.

Jiang Minghui said, "Let Mother Xu come in quickly."

The Feng Tutu sisters, one holding Zhang Qiuxia, and the other supporting her beside her, followed Jiang Minghui into the palace.

Once inside the palace, the temperature was very warm.

As Kong Ling walked, he asked, "Ah Hui, are the He and Xu families okay? Is everyone okay?"

Xu Zhihui said: "Everything is fine."

Kong Ling had a worried look on his face and said, "I have a feeling that things won't go smoothly. There may be more enemies coming tonight. Everyone should be careful."

Han Jinfeng asked, "Who else do you think will come?"

Kong Ling said: "It must be someone more powerful, at least more powerful than your sister."

Han Jinfeng couldn't remain calm anymore, "How should we deal with someone who is more powerful than my sister?"

Kong Ling said: "Let's take it one step at a time."

Shangguan Jing said: "Then I will arrange for the defense."

Kong Ling shook his head and said, "No need. No matter how many people we have, it will be useless."
