The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

In front of the Li Mansion.

Amid the deafening sound of firecrackers, Li Shu stepped over the fire basin to get rid of the bad luck brought from the Dingbei Marquis Mansion.

Yin Wanyu stood in front of the door with a smile on her face. As soon as Li Shu stepped over the brazier, she handed her a jade pendant. "I asked Abbot Yuan to consecrate this jade pendant. If you don't mind, you can wear it occasionally."

Li Shu blinked and stared at the jade pendant again and again.

She thought that everything her grandmother gave her was unusual, so this jade pendant must be special too.

But Yin Wanyu lowered her voice and said to her, "This is just an ordinary jade pendant. I hope your life will be smooth sailing and everything will go as you wish. I also want to tell you that you are not alone. The people who truly love you will always be by your side."

"Yeah! Thank you, Grandma!"

Li Shu held the jade pendant and threw herself into Yin Wanyu's arms with red eyes.

She had never been so intimate with Yin Wanyu before. Yin Wanyu was stunned for a moment before patting her shoulder and smiling.

Murong Yunchu quietly wiped his eyes.

From childhood to adulthood, what she envied most was that Li Shu could throw herself into her mother's arms and act coquettishly at any time, just like Fei'er.

And every time she saw Li Shu doing that, she couldn't help but want to glare at Li Shu.

Because she can't do that!

Her goal since childhood was to become the Crown Princess, so every word and action had to be dignified and appropriate!

But when she saw Li Shu acting coquettishly in someone else's arms again after a long time, she felt both relieved and distressed.

At this time, a maid came hurriedly on horseback.

After getting off the horse, he ran to Murong Yunchu and whispered a few words in his ear.

Murong Yunchu immediately went to Li Shu and whispered, "Fei'er has been summoned by the Imperial Grandmother again. I'm a little worried. I have to rush to the palace to check on the situation. I'll come back another day to take a good look at this mansion that the Imperial Aunt has given you."

"I also……"

"Didn't you just say that you were going to meet a very important person today?"

Yin Wanyu interrupted Li Shu and before she could say anything, she continued, "I haven't been to the palace for a few days. I'll go with the Crown Princess."

Thinking of what Lin Yuan had just said, that Kong Sanniang was already waiting for her in Wangshu Pavilion, Li Shu said nothing more.

But when those ladies said goodbye to her one after another, they said they would come to express their gratitude another day.

Then she stood in front of the mansion gate and saw everyone off, then took Lin Yuan on a carriage to Peacock Terrace.

She left Nanny Gui and Qinghong Cuiwei behind to get familiar with the new house and the servants there.

Halfway through the journey, Jingzhe entered the carriage with a carrier pigeon and handed it to Linyuan.

After reading the contents of the paper tied to the pigeon's leg, Lin Yuan said to Li Shu with a little excitement: "Miss, we found the owner!"

Li Shu was stunned.

Lin Yuan continued, "It's in the Zhenbei General's Mansion. Li Yunzhi just took the four Li Jin brothers to see the master, but our people haven't seen the master's body yet. I plan to go there myself tonight to investigate. I'll decide whether to bring the master's body out directly based on the situation."

"Hmm..." Li Shu looked down at the sandalwood Buddhist beads on her wrist. After a long pause, she suddenly spoke, "To be honest, I've dreamt of my mother many times before. She's been reincarnated as a human. She's got a new family and lives a happy life. So I want to bury her and not take care of her body like Li Yunzhi did."

"..."

Lin Yuan pursed his lips.

Sanniang had already prepared an ice coffin for her master.

I'm afraid Sanniang will want to bury her master in that ice coffin.

Then he said to Li Shu, "Miss, when you see Sanniang later, tell her about this."

Li Shu glanced at him and nodded.

"There's one more thing, Miss, you might already know... I've been sneaking into Concubine Qi's Jinxiu Palace these past few nights."

"I don't know. Why do you think I already know?"

Li Shu blurted out the question, then immediately asked, "What were you doing sneaking into the Jinxiu Palace of Concubine Qi? Did you encounter any trouble?"

Lin Yuan said, "A few days ago, news came out from the palace that Concubine Qi was ill. I thought it was a little unusual. Concubine Qi was able to wake up the Queen who had taken my poison and fell into a coma, and she also took out medicine to cure the highly contagious disease in the palace. Logically, she herself should not be easily sick, so I wanted to go and meet her. Young lady, you know that before, the people in our building had no news of Concubine Qi, let alone getting close to her, and even just monitoring her from afar. But I have been hanging around outside Concubine Qi's bedroom for the past few nights and haven't encountered any problems. However, I haven't risked going directly into Concubine Qi's bedroom yet."

Li Shu's heart moved.

Could it be that her luck has increased recently?

And the Chess Concubine suffered backlash because of her rising luck?

Even though she had such speculation, she still said, "Let's not take that risk yet. I can't live without you."

Lin Yuan's breathing stagnated.

Li Shu watched his ears quickly turn red, and hurriedly asked another question to make amends, "I guess even in your building, there's no one more powerful than you, right?"

"In terms of skill, yes."

"Why, is there anyone in your building who is prettier than you?"

"I think so. I'm not that good-looking, and I'm definitely not the best-looking."

"Then bring me some who are prettier than you."

"..."

Lin Yuan fell silent.

Li Shu thought he was jealous.

But after a moment, he suddenly said, "I can't think of it. I will ask Sanniang for you. Sanniang knows everyone in our building very well."

Becoming a subordinate again...

Although I felt a little jealous, I was also thinking seriously about her...

Li Shu couldn't help laughing.

She looks really pretty when she smiles.

Lin Yuan looked at the deep dimples on her cheeks, his heart beating rapidly, and he quickly closed his eyes and silently recited the Heart Cleansing Mantra.

He didn't open his eyes until the carriage stopped in front of the Peacock Terrace, and got off the carriage before Li Shu.

Seeing him there, Jingzhe took two steps back, wanting him to help Li Shu get off the carriage.

As a result, he retreated further.

Therefore, after helping Li Shu get off the carriage, Jingzhe couldn't help but look at Lin Yuan with disappointment.

She didn't know that Kong Sanniang was watching this scene upstairs.

Even after they entered the building, he smiled clearly.

Then she went to the door of Wangshu Pavilion to pick up Li Shu.

As soon as Li Shu went upstairs, she saw her from afar.

She wore a lake blue dress inside and a pure white fox fur cloak outside. The soft and fluffy collar made her face look particularly small.

Moreover, her facial features are small and delicate. She doesn't look like she is thirty-five at all, but rather like she is only in her twenties.

But her eyes, filled with smiles and tears, revealed the vicissitudes of life that come with hardships, and her whole body exudes a calmness that is as if she can handle anything, which is very consistent with her actual age.

"Sanniang."

Lin Yuan walked a few steps ahead of Li Shu and reached Kong Sanniang. He frowned as he looked at her face, which had become even thinner than before she left Beijing, and asked, "Didn't they say that miracle doctor could cure your illness? Why are you even thinner than before?"

Kong Sanniang glanced at him and ignored him.

Instead, he said to Li Shu with a smile: "I am glad to see you, young lady. You look more and more like your mother."
