Xu Miao waited until things in the capital had calmed down before returning to the Xu Mansion to see his mother.

Xu Miao returned to the Xu Mansion. As soon as Xu Jingyi saw Xu Miao, he told Xu Miao about Prince Rui's mutiny.

Finally, Xu Jingyi asked Xu Miao mysteriously, "Ah Miao, how are you and the Sixth Prince doing now?"

"Are you married?"

After Xu Miao left the capital, there was no news from him except for a letter he sent to Xiao Niang to assure her that he was safe.

Xu Jingyi knew nothing about Xu Miao's affairs.

Now the prince has become one-armed and cannot continue to inherit the throne.

Xu Jingyi started to set his sights on Zhou Jicheng again.

If Xu Miao married the Sixth Prince who lived far away in the Northern Frontier, perhaps Xu Miao could become the next Crown Princess.

Zhou Jicheng is the emperor's second son and his authentic bloodline.

Xu Miao simply ignored Xu Jingyi's question and replied, "Dad, I never thought of getting married in Northern Xinjiang, and the Sixth Prince never thought of marrying me."

"Don't worry about this. I think it's better for you to stay out of the royal family's affairs."

After hearing Xu Miao's reply, Xu Jingyi was so angry that he scolded Xu Miao, "You've been in Northern Xinjiang for several years, and in all these years, you haven't even captured the Sixth Prince. How can you be so disappointing!"

Xu Miao ignored Xu Jingyi's roar, turned around and walked towards the backyard, the girl's yard.

Xu Jingyi has no way to deal with Xu Miao now. Xu Miao is no longer the girl who had nothing and had to rely on the Xu family for a living.

She is now the head of the largest village in northern Xinjiang, and there is a golden rice bowl buried under her house.

Xu Miao saw his mother in the backyard.

As soon as they met, the girl hugged Xu Miao and started crying bitterly.

It took several long years since Xu Miao left.

During this period, Xiao Niang's life was like a silent stagnant pool, with no news about Xu Miao at all.

Every sunrise and sunset, the girl would silently repeat Xu Miao's name in her heart, worrying about her safety and well-being outside.

When Xu Miao's figure appeared in front of her without warning, she felt as if she was in a dream.

The girl stared at Xu Miao intently, as if she couldn't believe her eyes.

At that moment, all the longing and concern could no longer be suppressed.

The girl's lips trembled slightly. She wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be choked by something and she couldn't make a sound.

After a moment, the emotions that had been suppressed for so long finally burst out. The girl couldn't help but cover her face with her hands, her shoulders shaking violently, and she burst into tears.

Xu Miao hugged his young mother tightly, and waited until his mother calmed down a little before he spoke softly and told her his experiences in the northern border in the past few years in a concise and clear manner. He tried to speak calmly, just wanting to reassure his young mother.

Only after hearing that Xu Miao had become the head of the largest village in northern Xinjiang did Xiao Niang feel relieved.

Asked about the relationship between Xu Miao and Zhou Jicheng.

The young lady smiled and said, "Ever since that Prince Rui started causing trouble, your father has been coming to my yard to complain whenever he has nothing to do."

"She said she didn't know what happened between you and the Sixth Prince in the Northern Frontier. She even forced me to write to you to ask."

"I don't know what your father is up to again, A Miao, you must not listen to him."

"After finally making a name for yourself out there, you still have to live according to your own ideas."

Xu Miao also smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, little girl, it's definitely not my father's turn to make the decision on the marriage at this time."

"This time I came back, I wanted to take you to live in Northern Xinjiang. Grandpa and the others should also come with me to Northern Xinjiang."

After hearing this, the young lady's eyes widened in surprise: "Will your father agree with your idea? Did you just tell him about this?"

Xu Miao shook her head: "Little girl, if I tell my father about taking you away, he will definitely not let me."

"I'll have the Duke talk to him about this matter. My father promises he won't dare offend the Duke. You can pack up in the next few days and wait for me to pick you up in the mansion."

"I'll go talk to Grandpa later. That yard will be left for Uncle Goudan's children to live in first."

"If we want to come back to the capital in the future, we'll have a place to stay."

After hearing Xu Miao's plan, the young lady immediately nodded and said, "If the Duke is willing to talk to your father about this, it will definitely work."

"A Miao, I've wanted to follow you to Northern Xinjiang for a long time!"

Ever since Xu Miao left the capital, I have been worried about his safety day and night.

There was no one or anything in the Xu Mansion worth her lingering.

If Xu Jingyi could let her leave the house, she would definitely follow Xu Miao to the northern border.

Even if I can't help Xu Miao in any way when I arrive in Northern Xinjiang, it would be good enough if I could cook a meal for my daughter and see her every day.

When Xu Miao returned to Duke Dingguo's Mansion and met Zhou Chenli, he told him that he wanted to take his mother to the northern border.

Xu Miao: "Duke, I want to take my wife back to Northern Frontier."

"I'm old now, and there's nothing in the Xu Mansion that makes her stay."

"Please, Duke, tell my father to let me live with you in the Northern Frontier."

When Zhou Chenli heard this, he immediately agreed.

Xu Miao is Xu Jingyi's concubine. It is not a big deal for a concubine to leave.

It's no different from releasing a servant.

Besides, in recent years, Xu Jingyi has been going to his backyard frequently to recruit young and beautiful concubines.

Xu Miao is old and ugly, and Xu Jingyi has long looked down on her.

If Xu Miao didn't have the connection with the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, Xu Miao might have been sent to her hometown in the countryside by Xu Jingyi.

A few days later, Xu Miao took his mother, grandfather and his group on the journey back to northern Xinjiang.

In the capital, the prince has been losing his temper every day in the prince's mansion since he became one-armed.

The prince also knew that he would never be able to ascend to the throne in his lifetime.

At first, the Crown Princess patiently said a few words to coax the Crown Prince.

Later, annoyed by the prince's harassment, he simply took his children back to the General of Cavalry's mansion to hide.

The General of Cavalry met with the Crown Prince in private.

The next day, the prince came to the emperor and cried bitterly, asking the emperor to train his son well.

He said that even if he could not become emperor, he would use all his life's learning to assist his son.

As early as when the crown prince became one-armed, the emperor had thought of letting his eldest grandson succeed the crown prince.

This eldest grandson was brought into the palace since he was born and has been with the emperor ever since.

The young eldest grandson quickly won the emperor's favor with his intelligence, cleverness, and understanding.

They regarded him as the best among the younger generation of the royal family, placed high hopes on him, and gave him care and attention that others could hardly give.

Not to mention that the eldest grandson of the emperor and the General of Cavalry and his family are escorting him.

If the prince can be open-minded, the emperor will be very relieved that the eldest grandson will be the next heir.
