Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

308 Tell us your name

Song Zhi's arrangements were well-organized, and all parties were operating in a stable and orderly manner.

After taking a total of five cities at the border, Xin Wanyun stopped moving forward.

It is not a good thing to bite off more than you can chew, and it is not a good thing to blindly move forward to occupy things without maintaining stability.

Therefore, Xin Wanyun made a prompt decision to stop and rectify the military morale, stabilize the people's hearts, and put all the captives to good use.

The most ridiculous thing is that even though five cities have been lost, the capital is still living in peace and prosperity and is not affected at all. They have no idea that the border cities have been stolen.

The emperor was completely focused on Mu Nanqi. Mu Yuanzhi felt something was wrong, but he was still under house arrest and could do nothing.

He had lost contact with his confidants at the border for a long time. He was very afraid that what he had done would be exposed, and he lived in fear every day.

After finally getting through a month, the first thing he did after leaving the Eastern Palace was to check the current situation.

But he found that the entire capital was very peaceful, no different from the past. What he had done was not exposed, and the emperor even ignored him the whole time.

Apart from the fact that no new tax revenue had been received for two or three months and that the confidant in the first border city could not be contacted, there were no other problems.

But the calmer the situation was, the more cautious Mu Yuanzhi became.

He continued to anxiously try to contact the border, while also speeding up the process on his own side.

Now the weather is gradually getting warmer, flowers are blooming and birds are singing.

Seeing that the peach blossoms were about to fade, Song Zhi immediately took the female soldiers to the suburbs to pick peach blossoms.

There is strength in numbers. Within the morning, half of the mountain had been cleared by them.

Before coming, she specifically reminded everyone to be careful when picking the fruits and not to damage the stamens, so that the trees can still bear fruit.

When she returned to Gouer Lane, she started brewing wine immediately.

The wine that had been brewed earlier was ready to be opened. As soon as she opened the jar, a group of old monsters came over, attracted by the scent.

The old monsters didn't hesitate and packed the wine themselves and moved it back to the first alley.

After emptying the big jar, Song Zhi began to brew peach blossom wine.

She remembered that she still owed Doctor Jiang the peach blossom wine, so she thought of making more this time.

The old monsters got along with everyone more and more naturally. A few days ago, when the officers and soldiers tried to break in to look for Mu Nanqi, they were all slapped away by Old She with one palm.

Xiaocao's eyes lit up and he exclaimed that his master was amazing.

Mr. She was flattered by the praise and patted the officers and soldiers away.

Although the emperor made harsh remarks at the beginning, he was the one who regretted it the next day.

Perhaps the national treasury really had nothing left to give, so the emperor stopped sending gold, silver and treasures to Tinglanju, and instead sent people to invite Mu Nanqi to the palace to meet him every day.

Xiaotao, as the new housekeeper of Tinglanju, was obviously annoyed and had lost her smile.

Song Zhi thought about it and decided that it would be better to take Mu Nanqi to hide in Gouer Lane.

However, the newly appointed officers and soldiers had no idea how deep the water in Gouer Lane was and did not take it seriously at all.

They were anxious to find Mu Nanqi and report back to him to get a reward, so they tried to break in by force.

Then Mr. She taught them how to behave.

They originally wanted to get back at the lord, so they brought a lot of people with them that night.

As expected, he was taught a lesson again.

The officers and soldiers limped away with bruised faces and noses, and when they reappeared outside Gouer Lane, they smiled so servilely that they didn't dare to step within ten meters.

For the first time, the old monsters said to Song Zhi, "If anyone bullies us again, just tell us our names. We'll see who dares to be so presumptuous."

"Oh, you don't know our name yet. It's not a good name anyway, so forget it."

"You could have just sent someone to the first alley to notify us. We old guys can't just come out and keep order."

Song Zhi smiled and replied calmly one by one.

Seeing that his invitation was unsuccessful, the emperor changed his strategy.

I write a lot of letters every day to regret what I have done.

The letters were often filled with thoughts of Long Wu, and the emperor never gave up trying to persuade Mu Nanqi to go with him to Wanfo Temple to find Long Wu.

Whenever Mu Nanqi saw the words "Dragon Dance" or "Your Mother", his eyes would always dim.

Song Zhi keenly noticed his emotional fluctuations and asked, "You still want her to come back and see her, right?"

Hearing her voice, Mu Nanqi paused and his frown relaxed.

"I do want to see her, but I don't want her to come back. He's so heartless and disloyal. He doesn't deserve to see her again."

"Then why are you unhappy about this? Do you blame the late queen for abandoning you?"

Mu Nanqi embraced Song Zhi and sat beside him. He said calmly in a clear voice, "I'm unhappy because she abandoned me when I was born. But I don't blame her, Ah Zhi. She is herself first, and then the emperor's first wife, my mother."

Song Zhi didn't expect Mu Nanqi to be so insightful and was a little shocked for a moment.

When she realized what was happening, she smiled and said, "I was right about you. You are worthy of being the husband I chose for myself."

Mu Nanqi followed her words and continued: "That's natural, just be happy that you have me."

Since getting married, Mu Nanqi is like a melting snow mountain. The coldness and stiffness that keeps people at a distance has become less and less, and a smile seems to appear on his face at any time.

Song Zhi suddenly had an idea, "If you really want to see her, why don't we go to Wanfo Temple and ask the abbot if there is any compromise."

Mu Nanqi paused and said, "Forget it. We are no longer from the same world. Why bother disturbing her peace? I have a wife and a family now. I am no longer a weak child longing for her warmth."

When saying this, Mu Nanqi lowered his head and looked deeply at Song Zhi.

Song Zhi reached out and touched his cheek, his face gentle, "I'll listen to you."

Just as her eyes were filled with tenderness, Huan'er ran into the yard and said, "Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is looking for you at the entrance of the alley. If you don't see him, I can directly refuse him for you."

Although Song Zhi is married, the girls here still like to call her Miss.

Ever since getting married, Huan'er's expression when looking at Song Zhi has always been complicated, and it was only in the past few days that she became lively again.

Especially on the day when she returned to Gouer Lane, she held Song Zhi's hand and said solemnly with tears in her eyes: "Miss, you have found your own happiness. I am so happy for you."

Seeing the girl crying miserably, Song Zhi comforted her that she would find her own happiness.

It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything, but once she did, Huan'er cried even harder.

She covered her face and ran away. Song Zhi asked, "Where are you going?"

Huan'er was in tears, "The winter jasmine flowers that Qiu'er planted have fallen to the ground. I feel very sad when I see them. I am going to pick up a hoe and bury them."

Song Zhi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mu Nanqi, "Ah Zhi, respect everyone's preferences."
