New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies

As soon as Xiao Zhihang and others returned to the Xiao Mansion, they gathered all the servants together and carefully introduced to them the fact that there was a new young lady in the mansion.

Although Ziwei may not necessarily live in the Xiao Mansion all the time, she must have what she needs.

Since Xiaoyanzi has become sworn brothers with Ziwei, and Ziwei calls him father, then there is naturally a place for Ziwei in the Xiao Mansion.

Xue Yin did not stop them. She invited the people from the Xia family into the house, and then asked the housekeeper Xiao Mu to prepare some sumptuous wine and food to entertain the guests who had come from afar.

We are all a family from now on, and we can get to know each other better by having a meal together.

Xiaoyanzi took Ziwei to her own courtyard. Seeing that Ziwei wanted to live with her, Xueyin temporarily let the two maids live in the same courtyard and arranged for more maids to serve them.

The yard was also very big. Xiaoyanzi took Ziwei to chat in the house. They talked about everything from one place to another. Suddenly, Ziwei fell into a coma without any warning.

Xiaoyanzi was scared to death by her. She didn't want her good sister to suddenly die just when she found her.

She was about to go outside to call for a doctor, but Ziwei fainted for a while and then woke up. When she looked at the little girl in front of her, confusion flashed in her eyes. Then, she grabbed her hand and asked doubtfully, "Xiao, Xiaoyanzi?"

When Xiaoyanzi saw that she woke up, she ran back and asked her what was wrong and where she felt uncomfortable.

Ziwei was a little out of her mind, with tears in her eyes, and asked in a choked voice, "Xiaoyanzi, is it really you?"

Xiaoyanzi was stunned, but when she looked at the person in front of her, she felt that his temperament had changed. He was no longer the ignorant child he was at the beginning. She felt that this person was very much like Ziwei, no, the grown-up, adult Ziwei.

“Ziwei, Ziwei?”

Xiaoyanzi covered her lips and asked her in shock, with tears in her eyes.

If it really was Ziwei from her previous life, then she was finally no longer alone.

Although she is loved by her parents in this life, she is a lonely soul from her previous life. She always feels a little lost in her heart as she lacks someone to whom she can say kind words.

Although she met Qing'er and Ertai, they were too young. Even Ziwei was too young to talk to them about children. She had to be patient and not expose herself too obviously, otherwise, she would be regarded as an alien...

Now, when Xiaoyanzi looked at the person in front of her, who seemed like Ziwei who had experienced many things with her, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears while hugging Ziwei.

Ziwei also cried, she finally saw Xiaoyanzi again.

The two hugged each other and cried for a while. Xiaoyanzi wiped her tears and asked Ziwei what was going on.

After thinking for a while, Ziwei began to narrate what had happened since Xiaoyanzi.

----

In her previous life, Xiaoyanzi fell into the emperor's arms, explained Ziwei's life experience to him, and then passed away without any regrets. The emperor and others were shocked.

Seeing his daughter in his arms losing her breath, Doctor Hu and others treated her and then shook their heads regretfully. The Emperor was also very sad.

For a moment, a group of people were kneeling and paralyzed on the dirty ground. Everyone felt sorry for the girl who had always been reckless and frivolous, but always did bad things with good intentions. They saw that she did not forget to protect Ertai even when she was seriously injured, and did not forget to tell the emperor about Ziwei's life experience before she died.

Everyone looked at the girl who was once so lively, now with a pale face and lifeless lying in the emperor's arms, crying uncontrollably.

Afterwards, the emperor carried Xiaoyanzi back to the inn. He sent people to treat the wounded, punished the assassins, and began to interrogate the mystery of her life experience.

The emperor never imagined that his biological daughter, whom he had loved for so long, was actually a fake. His biological daughter had been serving him as a palace maid, and he even wanted to take his daughter into the harem.

All these blows left the emperor exhausted and he eventually fell ill in bed.

Ziwei and Qing'er suppressed their sadness and served the emperor medicine.

The emperor looked at the gentle Ziwei and the dignified Qing'er, but missed the lively and smiling Xiaoyanzi. He felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.

Xiao Jian, who believed himself to be Xiao Yanzi's biological brother, had a big quarrel with the Emperor and others, and took Xiao Yanzi's body away. He wanted to take the body back to Dali, and also revealed the fact that the Emperor was the enemy who killed his father.

The emperor was exhausted and ordered people to investigate, including the assassin, the identities of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, and the case that happened twenty years ago.

The successive blows made the emperor depressed. After more than half a month, the case became clear. Xiaoyanzi was indeed an impostor who entered the palace accidentally, but at that time she was just greedy for her father's love. Ziwei was his biological daughter.

He also did not issue an imperial decree to exterminate the entire Xiao family. The Xiao family was innocent. Although the imperial decree was slandered by others, it still resulted in the extermination of the Xiao family. The emperor knew that he was ashamed of the Xiao family.

He then issued an edict to grant marriage to Xiao Jian and Qing'er, and conferred the title of earl on Xiao Zhihang. Xiao Jian could inherit the title, while Xiao Yanzi was still Princess Huanzhu and was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Ziwei was restored to her status as Princess Mingzhu and was granted marriage to Erkang.

In the days that followed, the palace seemed to have returned to peace, except for the absence of that noisy person, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

The Emperor and Concubine Ling would go to Shufangzhai every few days.

Even after Ziwei got married, she still often went to Shufangzhai.

When Liu Qing and Liu Hong learned that Xiaoyanzi had died, they burst into tears and stayed away from the capital city ever since.

When Mingyue, Caixia and the four talented scholars learned that Princess Huanzhu was gone, they cried heartbreakingly and begged the emperor not to transfer them. They were willing to stay in Shufangzhai for the rest of their lives. They wanted to be the place closest to the princess, looking at the furniture every day and fantasizing about the days when the princess was still alive.

At that time, Shufangzhai was full of laughter and joy. At that time, Shufangzhai was always bustling with people, unlike later on, when it was filled with loneliness. There were people coming, but they were not her.

Ertai wanted to save Xiaoyanzi, but was saved by Xiaoyanzi instead. He felt guilty and couldn't let it go for a long time. Finally, he chose to travel around and become a knight to fulfill Xiaoyanzi's unfinished dream of being a knight-errant.

Benjamin loved Xiaoyanzi, but his sweetheart left him forever. He regretted not confessing his feelings and chose to bid farewell to the lonely palace. He walked along the way, collecting folk songs and painting the most beautiful scenery along the way, hoping that the beauty would dispel his inner loneliness.

Yongqi was pleased with Xiaoyanzi because of her identity but never expressed his feelings. He was full of regrets and was finally arranged by the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yu to marry a girl.

He had clearly stated that he had someone in his heart and that he might never forget her. The girl said that she didn't mind and that she could wait. So the two of them got married legitimately.

Just three years after Xiaoyanzi's death, Ziwei became pregnant and gave birth to a son named Dong'er, but died of dystocia.

Two years after her death, the Empress Dowager fell ill and passed away. The year after that, the Emperor died of illness because he could not bear the pain of losing his daughters and his mother. Yongqi succeeded to the throne...
