In the next few days, Tang Tianling began to fully promote various ways of eating locusts, which he learned from Wen Liuli.

His way of doing things was very tough. Every provincial and county government had a canteen, and every citizen of the Eastern Wilderness had to go to the local government office to have a bite to eat. Even beggars on the street had to catch a few to eat.

At first, his actions aroused the dissatisfaction of the whole world. How could the court do things this way? I don't want to eat it, but you force me to eat it?

However, after eating it, the people immediately stopped complaining. They wanted to ask for more, but the government refused to give it to them, so they could only go back and catch it themselves.

In just a few days, the locust plague that had been causing so much headaches for the entire Donghuang Kingdom was almost wiped out by the locusts.

And the credit finally fell on Tang Tianling, and no one in the court had any complaints about it.

Although the idea came from King Wu, it was King Wen who did the work.

As for why Tang Zhentian asked Tang Tianling to do this, there are several considerations.

Firstly, King Wu has no interest in government affairs and does not need any achievements. In addition, Tang Tianyu's achievements are greater than his own, and if he is asked to do it, people in the court may complain.

Secondly, Tang Tianling is extremely intelligent, and the locust plague is coming with great force. If it is not dealt with in time, the people will probably suffer. Letting Tang Tianling, the most intelligent among the princes, to do this is undoubtedly the best choice.

Thirdly, Tang Tianyu and Tang Tianling are good friends, and Tang Tianyu would not say anything if the matter was handed over to Tang Tianling.

"invitation?"

Looking at the red envelope in his hand, Wen Liuli couldn't help but frown.

Wen Liuli has been particularly quiet in the past few days. She has not messed with those messy little things anymore. She just eats and sleeps every day. From time to time, she asks people to find some sketchbooks for her to read. Occasionally, she fiddles with the flowers in the yard, plays with the dog, etc.

And on this day, Cuizhu brought back an invitation from outside.

"The General's Mansion just sent someone to deliver it. Your Highness is not here, so it was delivered to Madam."

"The General's Mansion?"

Hearing this, Wen Liuli was stunned for a moment, then opened the envelope in his hand.

Wen Liuli raised his eyebrows when he saw the content on the invitation.

The status of this General of Cavalry is not ordinary. His rank is equal to that of the Three Dukes and he is second only to the General Guarding the Nation among the military generals.

The content of the invitation was roughly that the General of the Cavalry was seeking a son-in-law, and his daughter Shangguan Jing was to be married on August 14th, and His Royal Highness the King of Wu and his wife were sincerely invited to attend the banquet.

Tang Tianyu had no connection with this person. After all, he was a prince, and in order to avoid suspicion, he would take the initiative to stay away from the generals.

However, Tang Tianyu still admired these generals very much. Civil officials only needed a few articles and strategies to enter the court, but military generals could only rely on bloody battlefields and fighting with swords and guns.

Being able to sit in the position of General of Cavalry shows that Shangguan Yan is very capable and is deeply trusted by the emperor.

"August 14th, isn't that the eve of Mid-Autumn Festival? That's next month..."

"Please reply to my message and tell them that you will come to visit me!"

"Yes!"

As a contemporary young person in the 21st century, Wen Liuli likes the hustle and bustle the most, and she also wants to see how the ancient people got married.

Is it really like what they show on TV where one bows to heaven and earth and then to parents? Are there any other steps?

And he's a son-in-law. Wow, what does a son-in-law look like?

But what kind of gifts did people give in ancient times? You can't go empty-handed, right?

August 15th, Mid-Autumn Festival. Hmm? How about bringing some mooncakes?

Thinking of this, Wen Liuli began to try hard to recall how to make mooncakes. Although it was still early, she couldn't wait until the moment to prepare them, right?

Hence, everyone in Prince Wu's mansion ate mooncakes that day.

Almost all of them were failures that Wen Liuli asked the chef to make. She only remembered the general steps, but it was not that easy to actually make them.

It would be a waste to throw away those failed products, so it would be better to give them to the servants to eat and play with.

Of course, Wen Liuli went to such great lengths to make mooncakes not just as gifts, but also to sell them as commodities in the future.

She has accumulated quite a few customers recently. With Tang Tianling and the others around, she no longer has to worry about whether the business is good or not. The most important thing now is to add more dishes and sell more things, so that she can make more money.

As for why she wanted so much money, it was naturally because she had a small idea in her mind.

I must build a big garden and a big house in the future, so that when my brother, parents and others come, they can spend a comfortable vacation here.

Building these things requires a lot of money and land. Currently, Tang Tianyu only has a lonely Wuwang Mansion and doesn't even have a fiefdom. He is extremely poor, with even less money in his pocket than in his face.

It costs money to buy land, materials for building a house cost money, workers cost money, and making some modern furniture also costs money. Money is needed everywhere. How can she not work hard?

But this is just a prototype of an idea. When we have enough money, we will start building it.

When Tang Tianyu came back, it was almost evening. When he came back, Yun Yin beside him was carrying a child on his back.

"Eh? Old White, where did you bring this child back from?"

Wen Liuli was a little surprised when she saw the child.

This is a little girl, who looks to be about four or five years old. Her clothes are tattered and her face is dirty, as if it hasn't been cleaned for a long time.

But despite this, Wen Liuli could still see that the little girl was very cute.

"It's a long story. What are you doing?"

"Oh, today the General of the Cavalry's Mansion sent us an invitation, inviting us to a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet next month. I was thinking of sending some mooncakes over, so here I am, making mooncakes."

Hearing this, Wen Liuli quickly patted the flour off her body and explained slowly.

"Oh, stop struggling, just follow me!"

When he heard that they were about making mooncakes, Tang Tianyu nodded. He knew about this thing. People on Blue Star did have the custom of eating mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

As for the matter of the General of Cavalry marrying a son-in-law, he put it out of his mind because he had more important things to do at this moment.

Hearing this, Wen Liuli nodded and set his eyes on the girl behind Yun Yin.

Judging from Tang Tianyu's expression, this girl must be of extraordinary status.

After a while, Wen Liuli followed Tang Tianyu into the house, while Yun Yin slowly put the little girl on the bed and then left the room.

"Huh? This girl looks a lot like you. Could she be your illegitimate daughter?"

At this time, Wen Liuli saw the little girl's full face and couldn't help but look at Tang Tianyu.

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu couldn't help but twitch his lips, and then told Wen Liuli what had happened.

It turned out that Tang Tianyu was not his mother's first child. Long before Tang Tianyu, his mother had given birth to a girl, who was Tang Tianyu's sister.

In addition, this girl is also the first child of His Majesty the current emperor, that is, the eldest daughter of the emperor.

However, the eldest princess disappeared many years ago.

It is said that he was missing, but in fact he eloped with someone.

Due to her status and stubborn character, Tang Zhentian did not make things too difficult for her in the end, but announced her death to the public.

Since then, the royal family has no longer had an eldest daughter, only an eldest son, Tang Tianmo.

Over the years, only the Tang Tianyu brothers had never given up looking for their sister. Today, Tang Tianling finally found her.

However, what was found was not their sister herself, but the child.

Their eldest sister died of illness several years ago, and her husband disappeared after sending the children to the imperial city.

Tang Tianling didn't dare to answer the call due to his status, so he told Tang Tianyu the news.

Tang Tianyu was not afraid of anything, so he went there in person and brought back the child.

"So what you mean is that she is your biological niece!"

"Yes. But her status is special, and my father will never recognize her, so I want to raise her in the palace."

He nodded. Not to mention this little girl, even if the eldest sister came, I'm afraid his father would behead her in anger.

Hearing this, Wen Liuli narrowed his eyes slightly. He is indeed an ancient person, so pedantic.

Then she looked at the little girl sleeping on the bed, with a trace of pity in her eyes. Seeing her reminded Wen Liuli of someone.

The Wen family has an adopted daughter named Nan Xueer, who was adopted by her brother Wen Gongliang. Although their experiences are completely different, their ages are not much different.

"Well, place her in Liuliyuan and let me take care of her."

In fact, she also likes children very much. Besides, this person is Tang Tianyu's niece, so she naturally will not sit idly by.

"it is good!"

This is what Tang Tianyu planned. Firstly, he, a grown man, doesn't know how to take care of a baby. Secondly, Wen Liuli was born on Blue Star and has knowledge far beyond what others can match. It is naturally best for her to teach the child.

"what is her name?"

"Her original surname was Situ and her given name was Zhiqian. I changed her surname to Tang, and she will be considered a member of the main family from now on."

"Zhi Qian?"

Hearing this name, Wen Liuli couldn't help but frown. This should be the name given by Tang Tianyu's sister.

Zhiqian, which is pronounced as Zhiqian, means “apologetic” in Chinese. I guess even she herself feels that she has done something wrong.

However, women's love is normal and should not be bound by worldly affairs. There was nothing wrong with what she did. Although her actions were extreme, she was pursuing her own love after all.

It is difficult to judge this matter. Now that the person is gone, there is no point in saying anything.

However, when Tang Tianyu mentioned about taking into account the clan's affairs, Wen Liuli was indeed stunned.

After what happened decades ago, the Tang clan has long ceased to exist. Is Tang Tianyu doing this in order to rebuild the clan?

But it’s better this way. Even if the emperor knows about Tang Zhiqian’s existence, he will not do anything to her because of her status as a member of the clan.

This is the ancestral precept of the Tang family. In this world, the royal family is greater than the main family, but in the Tang family, the main family is greater than the royal family.

If the royal family attacks the clan, it would be tantamount to betraying their teacher and ancestors.

The next morning, Tang Zhiqian slowly opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar environment around her. Her face was full of confusion.
