"Why are you back again?"

"Has your young lady returned?"

"Our young lady has already married into the Gao family, why would she come back?"

Another servant from the Lu family chimed in, "That's right! Even if they come back, it's not something your Li family should concern themselves with!"

The servants of the Li family were at a loss for what to do. They sent one person back to report the news, while the others continued to wait at the Lu family's gate.

Perhaps the eldest daughter of the Lu family got lost, or she doesn't know how to ride a horse and arrived late?

Seeing that things were not going well, the servant guarding the gate of the Lu family also sent someone into the mansion to report to Lu Chengde.

Meanwhile, the person they longed for had been lingering at the entrance of the Prince of Yan's residence for quite some time.

Lu Huan pulled a gold hairpin from her hair, knocked on the side gate of the Prince Yan's mansion, and begged a servant in the mansion to pass a message to the nanny beside the Princess Yan.

Before her mother died in her previous life, Lu Huan's mother secretly told her this.

When his maternal grandfather's family ran into trouble, before the collateral branches received the news, he gave most of his property to the Prince of Yan, who had just been enfeoffed and was short of money.

In return, the Prince of Yan made a promise: aside from serious crimes like treason, he could make one request within the Prince of Yan's power.

She used this promise from her past life to exchange for Gao Zhongbao's future.

In this life, Lu Huan doesn't want to marry into the Li family, so she can only use this promise to get the Prince's Mansion to support her.

She had also considered returning to the Lu family.

But Lu Huan dared to pull off a marriage swap right under her father Lu Chengde's nose, so she couldn't count on him anymore.

She knew that the relationship between her and her father was not very close.

Since her mother's death, Li Shi has been made the official wife, and the number of times Lu Huan and Lu Chengde meet each year can be counted on one hand.

Perhaps Lu Chengde was completely unaware of this beforehand, but if Lu Huan ran back to the Lu family like this, he would absolutely not stand up for Lu Huan, and might even go along with the mistake and send the person to the Li family.

After much deliberation, Lu Huan realized that the only person in the entire capital city who could make decisions for him was the Prince of Yan's residence.

After waiting a while, the side gate opened again, and a young woman wearing a purple turban and a purple jacket with a mud-gold skirt walked out. She did not have a woman's hairstyle.

Lu Huan tentatively asked, "Are you the older sister who serves the Princess?"

Zijing remained expressionless and glanced at Lu Huan a few times.

"Come in with me."

She led Lu Huan to a side room near the gate.

"Now you may speak. What brings you to see my queen?"

Lu Huan dared not hide anything and told the person in front of her about the connection between her maternal grandparents' family and the royal family, as well as her speculations.

Zijing remained unmoved and asked calmly, "So, what do you want?"

Lu Huan gritted her teeth: "I want to ask the Princess to send a capable maidservant with me to the Gao family to make decisions for me!"

"Wait." Zijing didn't know if the matter was true or false, so she could only find out the truth and then report back to the Princess for a decision.

Once her figure disappeared outside the door, Lu Huan finally felt relieved. He figured the princess wouldn't refuse such a small request as sending someone to back him up.

In his previous life, Gao Zhongbao passed the imperial examination with flying colors, but for some reason, he was delayed in receiving an official appointment.

After waiting for three long years, while the newly appointed scholars had all gone to take up their posts, he was still being suppressed.

No matter how many times I went to the Ministry of Personnel to inquire, I was always turned away.

Gao Zhongbao was now in a panic. He spent money everywhere to inquire and finally learned from a minor official in the Ministry of Personnel that the head of the Eastern Depot had sent someone to suppress the order to grant him an official position.

Later, Lu Huan returned to Yanjing and used that promise to ask the Prince of Yan for help, hoping that the Director of the Eastern Depot, who had been targeting the Gao family, would show leniency.

However, this only meant being able to enter the imperial court and become an official.

If that supervisor hadn't died young, Gao Zhongbao might have been stuck in the Hanlin Academy, spending his entire life as a low-ranking official.

On that occasion, Lu Huan also managed to meet the princess through the princess's head maid.

In this lifetime, the King of Yan should be very happy to see the promises he made easily taken back.

Lu Huan patted her chest and realized that she was very sticky from riding the horse all the way here.

She walked to the door, and sure enough, two maids were waiting outside.

Hearing footsteps in the room, the two men quickly turned around: "Please wait in the room, young lady."

His tone was very cold, and he showed no intention of talking to Lu Huan at all.

After Gao Zhongbao passed the imperial examination, Lu Huan had been ridiculed openly and secretly by countless women from official families, but she didn't take this slight to heart.

She explained with a smile, "My daughter has come all the way on horseback and is covered in dust. If she were to meet the Princess later, I'm afraid she would be impolite."

The two maids were undecided for a moment, and as they hesitated, Zijing slowly walked over.

"what happened?"

The maidservant leaned close to Zijing's ear and whispered back about Lu Huan's actions during this time.

Zijing nodded and said, "It was indeed a bit rude. Please come with me."

She led Lu Huan to a side room in the outer courtyard.

"There is a clean room and hot water inside, so please wash up. I will take you to see the princess shortly."

As soon as Lu Huan stepped inside, the door behind him closed.

It seems unlikely that anyone will come in anytime soon.

She walked a few steps to the bronze mirror and took out a jade pendant from inside her wedding dress.

In my previous life, on the second day after our marriage, when we were formally recognizing each other, my mother-in-law, Zhou, took the jade pendant back.

It appeared on Gao Zhongbao's neck a few days later.

Later, during their escape, they accidentally stained the jade tablet with blood, which unexpectedly activated the space inside.

This is an upgradeable planting space with ten acres of black soil and four thatched houses.

The most amazing things are the spiritual spring and the interdimensional trading system.

Perhaps because Gao Zhongbao's blood was the majority, the jade pendant recognized him as its master.

Although Lu Huan was able to enter the space, all his actions were under Gao Zhongbao's surveillance.

Without his permission, Lu Huan could do nothing.

Gao Zhongbao considered himself a scholar and felt that farming was beneath his dignity, so all the land in the space was planted by Lu Huan himself.

As a result, she often went to Gao Zhongbao's study and would stay there for most of the day.

In Zhou's eyes, Lu Huan became a shameless vixen who seduced her son and was not ambitious.

Even during the years when Gao Zhongbao was frustrated and unsuccessful, Zhou blamed Lu Huan, saying that she was cursed and hindered her son's career.

Every day before 5 a.m., Lu Huan would go to Zhou's room to establish rules, and at night he would also serve Zhou by helping her wash up and go to bed.

Working day and night, Lu Huan's health deteriorated day by day.

If she hadn't worked in the space and absorbed a lot of spiritual energy, she probably wouldn't have survived until Gao Zhongbao was promoted.

Including the pregnancy she lost while fleeing, she lost a total of three children.

Later, Gao Zhongbao noticed something was wrong and gave Lu Huan some good things from his space, which helped her recover and give birth to twins, allowing her to establish herself in the Gao family.

Lu Huan vowed that, given a second chance at life, she would take control of the situation herself!

For those children, and for your own sake!

She decisively bit her finger and pressed it onto the jade pendant.

Clench your fist until your palm relaxes.

Thinking of the vegetables and fruits she grew in her previous life, which were so delicious she could swallow her tongue, she felt a little hungry.

The newly activated jade pendant space is in its initial state and requires continuous farming and item trading to upgrade, but...

What?! How could this happen?!
