The abandoned concubine who transmigrated woke up shouting "Long live the widow!"

Li Jun nodded slightly and said, "That makes sense, because during the time Sun Hua returned to Qingzhou, she transferred all her shops in Qingzhou to her brother's name."

Jingxue guessed that Sun Hua probably wanted to transfer the shop to her brother and then come to the capital!

"The case was closed so quickly?" Jingxue asked.

"It was settled out of court again! His brother couldn't produce any evidence to prove his innocence and was afraid of really going to jail, so the prefect mediated. Sun Hua and I got divorced. That way, she doesn't have to be buried in the Li family's ancestral graves, and I didn't take her dowry either," Li Jun said simply.

Jingxue understood everything. The case was closed so quickly, probably because her uncle Li Huan had also intervened.

The new prefect of Qingzhou was his former subordinate. Now he has been promoted two ranks to become the Vice Minister of Revenue. As long as the prefect isn't stupid, he should be able to do a favor and mediate between them.

"Does your uncle know about this? Including the fact that An'an and Yingying's mother is a princess of Nanzhao?" Jingxue asked.

Li Jun knew that his niece was exceptionally intelligent and should have already guessed the truth behind this.

"Yes! My elder brother told me to go to Nanzhao first. He will explain the details to your maternal grandmother after he returns from Qingzhou."

Jingxue nodded, "Alright!"

"Your Highness, Lan Yuan has already told me that as long as we can get the foreign troops to withdraw this time, the Emperor will release your father, mother, and younger brother. Don't worry, your uncle will do his best to handle this matter and send the news back to the court as soon as possible."

“Good! Nanzhao produces medicinal herbs, and you, Uncle, are an expert in this field. I believe you will succeed.”

The drones are capable enough; the problem is the lack of explosives. If they had them, they could have blown the foreign lands to smithereens. However, poison could also ensure the foreign lands never return.

Jingxue didn't expect that it would take the Emperor several days to draft an agreement. What were these civil officials doing?

Fortunately, another day passed, and the emperor finally sent someone to inform the Nanzhao envoys that the contract would be signed the following day.

With the agreement signed, it was time for Lan Yuan and the others to return to Nanzhao.

Jingxue had already asked Qin Jing to buy ten carriages, and she filled them with everything she could from her spatial storage. The ten carriages were packed to the brim, and each carriage was also towed by a tricycle.

Jingxue also gave Prince Jin some things that he could use in battle, such as binoculars and walkie-talkies, which made Prince Jin so happy that he couldn't stop smiling and kept expressing his gratitude.

Finally, the moment Jingxue least wanted to face arrived. She and Ye Muchen, along with Jingze, escorted the Nanzhao delegation all the way to the Ten-Mile Pavilion.

Even after seeing you off for a thousand miles, we must eventually part ways!

Jingxue and the others dismounted. Runyue and Jingze, their eyes red, got off An'an and the others' carriage. The two children hadn't even eaten breakfast that morning.

Ye Muchen said, "Your Highness, both for public and private reasons, I hope you have a safe journey and that you can persuade the foreign invaders to withdraw their troops as soon as possible. The court awaits your good news."

Lan Yuan gave a slight curtsy. "Thank you, Your Majesty and Prince, for seeing us off all the way. However, matters of state are of utmost importance, and I must hurry on my journey. I hope we can meet again someday if the opportunity arises. Please take good care of yourselves! We are now on our way."

Jingxue nodded slightly, without saying a word.

Lan Yuan and Li Jun, each leading a child, were about to board the carriage when An'an suddenly let go of Li Jun's hand. She took a few quick steps, deftly lifted her robe, knelt down, and, weeping, clasped her hands in gratitude, saying, "Sister, thank you so much for saving me and my sister, giving us the opportunity to return to our parents. My senior said that a life-saving grace should be repaid tenfold. An'an now wishes you a peaceful and prosperous life! When An'an grows up, she will definitely repay your life-saving grace. An'an and my sister will miss you both!"

After saying this, the child put his hands together and kowtowed to Jingxue.

Oh my! Jingxue couldn't hold back anymore, and tears streamed down her face. She quickly took a few steps to help An'an up, squatted down and hugged the little boy, choking back tears as she said, "An'an, be good, your sister will miss you too, don't cry!"

"Sister, I can't bear to part with you either!" Yingying ran over crying, and Jingze and Runyue also ran over. The group hugged each other and cried together.

Everyone present was deeply moved by what they saw.

However, it was already close to noon and they could not delay any longer. Ye Muchen and Li Jun stepped forward to persuade the group to leave. An'an and Yingying were carried onto the carriage, and the delegation set off back to Nanzhao.

Jingxue didn't know why she ended up leaning against Ye Muchen's chest; she really couldn't bear this scene of parting.

"Xue'er, don't cry. An'an and Yingying will grow up happily by their parents' side. You can rest assured!" Ye Muchen gently comforted Jingxue.

"Hmm!" Jingxue mumbled in response.

Ye Muchen used his handkerchief to wipe away Jingxue's tears. "It's windy here, let's go back!"

"it is good!"

Jingxue, with Runyue in tow, and Ye Muchen, with Jingze in tow, escorted the group back to the capital.

In the days that followed, Jingxue became busy again. The workshop on the estate was about to be completed and would soon begin producing vermicelli and dried tofu.

The two shops on South Street opened very quickly, and Jingxue kept a low profile, setting off a string of firecrackers before opening.

Jingxue priced the tricycles at two thousand taels of silver each, and they quickly became popular in the capital city, appearing everywhere on the streets. Qin Jing's shops in various prefectures also began selling tricycles.

Starting to plant crops at the end of March, Jingxue began to frequently travel outside the city, visiting not only Dashan Village and Yangshu Village, but also Jun Village several times.

The soldiers have already cleared the land and started planting crops, and of course, the seeds were provided by Jingxue.

Heaven was very kind to Beiye. It rained heavily when they were planting, and the sun shone brightly after they were sown, so the seeds sprouted and grew quickly. Good news from all over the country was sent back to the capital.

Jingxue could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Next, the academy's dormitories will be completed, the children will move in and start school. Once all that is done, Jingxue plans to open a traditional Chinese medicine shop.

After Li Jun left, there was no one to help her manage the place, so Jingxue had no choice but to put the pharmacy aside for the time being.

Ye Muchen found someone himself, and asked Qin Jing and Ye Musi to help find a suitable and reliable doctor. After the serious examination by Doctor Baili, they actually found a traditional Chinese medicine doctor in his thirties for Jingxue. The man came from Yizhou and his ancestors had served as imperial physicians in the palace.

Jingxue opened this traditional Chinese medicine shop not to make any money, but simply to provide a place for the girls of the academy to practice in the future. However, it would be good if it could also help the poor people in the capital to treat illnesses.

So, Jingxue asked that person to practice medicine at the pharmacy. Li Jun had already trained two apprentices for him, and these two children had been diligently guarding the shop these days. Jingxue planned to practice medicine at the pharmacy herself when she had time.

However, during this very period, someone in the imperial court presented a memorial to the emperor without any mercy, severely impeaching Jingxue.

This memorial detailed her numerous crimes, and she was not the only one impeached; Ye Muchen was also implicated.

After all, husband and wife are one entity; since they are a couple, it is naturally difficult for them to remain unaffected.

The person who impeached them was none other than the censor Li Wenqing.
