It was ten days later when we returned to Huicheng.

Many things happened in Huicheng in the past ten days. Lord Zhou, who was originally waiting to marry the daughter of Duke Dingguo, suddenly became unhappy overnight.

The eldest princess died, the Duke Dingguo's mansion was ransacked, and all three clans of the Duke's mansion were executed. Not only did their Zhou family not benefit from the Duke's mansion, but they became a shelter for the second young lady of the Pan family.

Lord Zhou, who was in great glory in the morning, became miserable in the evening. He wanted to break off the engagement but didn't dare to because it was a marriage bestowed by the emperor himself.

Mrs. Zhou was secretly happy, thinking that everything was great, but she turned out to be the daughter of a traitor, and ended up being an orphan with her family broken up. She would be at her mercy in the future.

A big event also happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion. On the afternoon of the day Hua Xiyu left, Xie Zhiyi came to the mansion to play with Hua Xiyu. Qingxing and other maids didn't know where the young lady had gone, nor did they know when she would come back, and they couldn't give Xie Zhiyi an accurate answer. Xie Zhiyi just waited in Liushuang Courtyard, but it was boring to just wait. Miss Hua was so skilled, the maids in her courtyard should not be weak either. So Xie Zhiyi taught a few girls to dance with swords in the courtyard.

Hua Hongming bought a box of pastries for his sister on the way home from school. As soon as he got home, he hurried to his sister's Liushuangyuan. The pastries would not taste good if they were cold, so they had to be eaten while they were hot.

As a result, as soon as he entered Liushuangyuan, he was bumped by Xie Zhiyi and stumbled. The pastry fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Then, the two began to argue, "I'll compensate you, I'll compensate you, okay?" Xie Zhiyi was unable to win the argument with Hua Hongmi, and finally had to give in and compensate him.

Hua Hongming felt a little embarrassed. After calming down, he thought, as a grown man, how can he argue with a little girl? He could just buy more cakes if they were gone. It was too unmanly to quarrel with a woman.

As expected, Xie Zhiyi bought some cakes to compensate him the next day. After a few interactions, the two of them actually fell in love with each other. Hua Hongming expressed his desire to marry a girl from the Xie family and asked his father to propose marriage.

As expected, Prime Minister Hua went to propose marriage. He trusted the family tradition and character of the Xie family. As a family of military generals, there were not so many twists and turns. His son was too simple and was a perfect match for a woman like Xie Zhiyi.

Liang Yuejiao was so angry that she died. Her niece had been waiting to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the father and son decided on the marriage without even informing her.

The wedding date is set for March of next year, which is plenty of time to prepare for half a year. Hua Hongming is already 20 years old, and Xie Zhiyi is also 17 years old. Now she has become Hua Xiyu's sister-in-law.

Miao Xinyi originally regretted rejecting the Zhou family's marriage proposal, but she never expected that her grandfather's family would regain their status and the Miao family could benefit from it again. Her status was different from before, and her initial regrets disappeared, and she felt that she could wait for the right opportunity again.

But a concubine's daughter who is already 20 years old would usually not have anyone come to her house to propose marriage to her. She is still planning to become a concubine for her cousin. Whose family can compare with the royal palace?

She felt that she had lowered her standards from being a princess to being a concubine, so there should be no problem this time.

So she stayed at home embroidering her wedding dress and waited for her cousin to come back. After the wife got married, she would let him propose marriage. The timing was just right.

Ten days was neither too long nor too short. Without the people and things that hindered him, Emperor Shunhe acted vigorously and completely cleaned up the court in just eight days. Those members of the Pan family who should have been imprisoned had been imprisoned, and those who should have been beheaded had been beheaded. He was no longer the weak and vulnerable young emperor who was controlled by the Pan family.

After receiving the picture of military rations sent by Liu Jingcheng, he felt even better. "I knew that they would have a way in the future. I was just testing them, and they got so much food..." He suddenly felt he dared not think further. Some things are terrifying when you think about them carefully.

After returning to Huicheng, the two babies threw themselves directly into their mother's arms and asked for kisses. Not long ago, these were the treatments Liu Jingcheng enjoyed, but now it seemed that he had nothing to do with them.

Hua Xiyu had dinner at the palace, bathed and changed clothes before returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion. When she heard about Hua Hongming's marriage, she was happy for him.

In the following days, she concentrated on preparing for her wedding at home. The next day after returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liang brought the dowry list.

Hua Xiyu was lying on a chair reading a book. When she saw Liang coming, she simply asked her to sit down, asked Qingxing to bring tea, and then continued reading her book.

Liang Yuejiao looked embarrassed, a little awkward. It was normal for her not to be close to the child since he was not hers, but it was just too rude.

Liang Yuejiao ignored her and just said, "Qianyu, this is the dowry list. Your mother's dowry will naturally be given to you. See if there is anything else you want. Just ask. You will never be wronged."

She took out the dowry list from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Hua Xiyu.

Both Aunt Bai and Aunt Zhang were a little embarrassed. After all, she was the mistress of the Hua Mansion, but in Xiyu's eyes, she was not even an acquaintance.

Seeing that she ignored her, Liang had no choice but to leave. After all, the child was not her biological daughter and she could not control him anymore.

"Miss, this dowry list..." Do you want to take a look at it? It will be your support in the future.

She lay leisurely in the chair. The dowry list was related to her own property, so she had to ask about it. Since it was her mother's things, it was natural for her to receive them.

I opened the neatly folded list and read through it line by line. I had to guess most of the traditional Chinese characters, but that was about it:

150 acres of fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing,

300 acres of sloping land,

300 acres of forest land

100 acres of wasteland

10 shops on Huidong Street

2 taels of silver and 5000 taels of gold

Pearls, jewelry, etc.

20 quilts, 20 sets of clothes for each season,

……

Wow, no matter what era this is, she would definitely be a rich woman. Behind her are clothes, jewelry, slaves, maids, etc. I don’t want to see them anymore, as she is already quite rich.

Her biggest dowry was her guns, her car, her cell phone, and all her modern equipment. It was such a bargain for Liu Jingcheng, and she was completely unaware of it.

Then Zi Teng came in hurriedly and said, "Miss, there is a young man named Su outside who wants to see you. Madam wants you to go to the front hall to meet the guest."

Liu Hao, who had been imprisoned, felt that life was wonderful. Although he had no freedom, at least he was safe and did not have to worry about being assassinated. Han Xing was also sent to him. Except for the poor food, the master and servant felt that everything else was wonderful.

I just don't know when the emperor will resolve the issues in southern Xinjiang and allow him freedom.

Fu Yunyi returned to Huicheng and met his parents, wife and children. He couldn't help crying. When talking about Northern Xinjiang, he naturally mentioned Hua Xiyu. Then Fu Tingxuan told him that Hua Xiyu was the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the daughter of his aunt, and his cousin.

The Fu family always thought that she was in Shuiyue Temple. The two brothers of the Fu family knew the truth a long time ago, but they never talked about it at home, so that their grandparents and parents were all unaware of it.

"You bastard, that's your cousin, why are you telling her now?" Old Madam Fu threw her cane at Fu Tingxuan, but of course she didn't hit him.

"I thought my eldest brother had already told it, so I didn't mention it again." Maybe both brothers thought the other would tell it, but in the end, neither of them said anything.

"Hurry up and hitch the carriage, hurry up, I want to go see my granddaughter." Old Madam Fu didn't bother to blame her grandson. Her most urgent desire at the moment was to see her granddaughter.

"Mom, it's too late today. Your son will go with you tomorrow morning." Fu Yunyi thought of the bad things his sister had experienced after giving birth to the twins. He didn't expect that his niece would be so successful now.

"Now that she's back, why doesn't she come to her grandparents' house?" General Fu was unhappy. Isn't it normal for the younger generation to pay respects to the elders? Why did the elders have to go see her first?

"Grandfather, my cousin is amazing." Fu Tingxuan told his family about Hua Xiyu's experience in detail. The Fu family was amazed to hear what she had heard. It turned out that she had had another adventure.
