At night, Su Cheng sat alone in the room.

Su Xiaoxiao knocked on his door. “Dad, it’s me.”

Su Cheng wiped his red eyes and said seriously, “Come in.”

Su Xiaoxiao entered with a bowl of lotus seed soup. “Dad.”

“Hey,” Su Cheng replied. “It’s so late. Why aren’t you sleeping?”

“I couldn’t sleep, so I came to see Dad.”

Su Xiaoxiao placed the lotus seed soup on the table and sat down beside Su Cheng. “Dad.”

“Hmm? I happen to be a little hungry.”

Su Cheng did not want his daughter to see his abnormality and buried his head in his food.

Su Xiaoxiao saw through it but didn’t expose it. She had already learned what had happened from Wuhu.

That’s right. Wuhu, this little spy, had no pressure when it came to spying.

She had come to look for his father after careful consideration.

She sighed softly and said, “Dad, let Mother return to the Southern Wilderness.”

Su Cheng held the spoon tightly.

“Yiya, yiya, yiya!”

Wei Xiaobao’s serious voice came from the courtyard.

She did not know what Qin Canglan had done to her, but her little fellow was angry again.

Su Xiaoxiao held Su Cheng’s wrist. “Mom has already walked the path with Dad. Let her go home with Grandmother.”

Su Cheng closed his swollen and sore eyes and his body trembled slightly.

–

Three days later, Cheng Sang and Zongzheng Wei bade farewell to Qin Canglan and the others.

Old Matriarch Wei, Madam Wei, Matriarch Su, and Madam Tao came to send them off.

During their time in the capital, they had formed many card games. Putting aside their connections, they had already become very tacit friends.

Old Matriarch Wei and Matriarch Su were quite reluctant to part with her.

Su Xiaoxiao walked with Wei Ting and Su Ergou.

The relocation of the grave was done by the son and son-in-law personally. They did not leave it to others and escorted the ashes all the way back to the Cheng family in the Southern Wilderness.

The journey was tiring. She had not planned to bring the little fellows along.

Wei Xiaobao was a smart person. Halfway through, she got into Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage through the pharmacy.

When the group arrived at the city gate, Qin Canglan was waiting on the official road with the Qin family’s iron cavalry.

Qin Canglan held the reins tightly. “I’ll escort my daughter-in-law home.”

–

Apricot Village had never had so many troops before. The vast number of soldiers filled the entire village.

The villagers did not dare to breathe loudly, afraid that they would be trampled to death by the hooves!

In fact, the Qin family’s iron cavalry was well-trained. They did not even break a vegetable flower on the field.

Wei Ting and Su Ergou took shovels to dig the grave.

Qin Canglan and Zongzheng Wei also walked over.

Qin Canglan said, “I’ll do it. She’s my daughter-in-law.”

Zongzheng Wei grabbed the shovel. “In the future, she will be my daughter.”

Zongzheng Wei had long ordered someone to transport a thousand-year-old cold jade coffin over from the Southern Wilderness. He had spent a lot of money to have it custom-made and it was just enough to store the old coffin.

The moment the coffin set off, the Qin family army knelt on one knee.

“Send Young Madam home!”

“Send Young Madam home!”

“Send Young Madam home!”

Cheng Sang touched the cold jade coffin with tears flickering in her eyes. “Weiwei, Mom is bringing you home.”

–

In the end, Emperor Jing Xuan did not survive July.

On a sunny afternoon, he pa.s.sed away.

Crown Prince Xiao Zhonghua ascended the throne under the witness of all the civil and military officials.

Empress Dowager Jin became the Grand Empress Dowager.

The Empress was conferred the t.i.tle of Saint-Empress Dowager, and Xiao Zhonghua’s biological mother, Consort Xian, was conferred the t.i.tle of Empress Dowager.

Not long after the state funeral, Xiao Zhonghua’s personal guards “discovered” Bai Xihe’s corpse at the foot of the cliff and officially announced her death.

“Empress Dowager.”

The nanny in charge walked over.

The Internal Affairs Department counted the things in Zhaoyang Hall and brought the book over to ask the Saint Empress Dowager to give it to them.

As the new emperor had just ascended the throne and had yet to establish a harem, Consort Xian was used to s.h.i.+rking her responsibilites. She could not be bothered to take charge of the six palaces after becoming the Empress Dowager. Therefore, all matters, big or small, were still handled by the Saint Empress Dowager.

“I know she’s not dead.”

The Saint Empress Dowager said.

The nanny in charge looked at her with a complicated expression. “Saint Empress Dowager…”

The Saint Empress Dowager smiled faintly. “Are you trying to tell me that I can do the same? It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, but it’s a pity that I don’t have the guts like her. I… can’t entrust my life to a man.”

After faking her death, Bai Xihe had indeed obtained freedom, but she had also lost the protection and reliance of the royal family.

If Su Cheng was a good man, she would naturally have nothing to worry about.

However, if Su Cheng was not, what awaited her would be eternal d.a.m.nation.

“Everyone has their own fate.”

After saying this, the nanny did not say anything else.

Some people were injured and could no longer take off their armor.

She knew that Sikong Yun was waiting for her.

However, she did not have the courage to risk it again.

This deep palace was her cage and fortress.

–

Under the influence of the late emperor’s death, the original selection of the emperor’s son-in-law had to be canceled.

The two princesses had to mourn for the late emperor for three years and Xiao Zhonghua postponed the selection to three years later on the grounds of mourning.

To the citizens of the Great Zhou, after the state funeral on the 27th day, life gradually returned to normal.

The days gradually entered winter, and the first snow fell in the capital.

Old Matriarch Wei watched as Wei Xiyue finished practicing her calligraphy and asked her to accompany her brothers to play in the snow. She asked Madam Wei to call her granddaughters-in-law over.

Su Xiaoxiao, Chu Feifeng, and Li Wan were not around.

Su Xiaoxiao had gone to the Southern Wilderness, and Chu Feifeng had returned to her parents’ house with Wei Chen.

Ever since Alliance Master Jiang and Yun Shuang’s matter agitated Wei Chen, Wei Chen immediately put down his previous aloofness. He used all kinds of schemes, from kneeling to writinglove poetry. As long as he could win back his wife, he was capable of all forms of shamelessness.

Chu Feifeng couldn’t figure out what was going on. In the end, her parents were very satisfied.

As for Li Wan, she was pregnant with her second child and was very sleepy. Old Matriarch Wei made it a point not to disturb her.

Chen Pei, Lan Baoyin, and Jiang Susu sat upright in Old Matriarch Wei’s room.

“Mother.”

Madam Wei spoke.

Old Matriarch Wei said, “Have you guessed what I want to say?”

Madam Wei nodded.

Old Matriarch Wei sighed and decided not to beat around the bush. “Pei’er, Baoyin, Susu, I called you over today to discuss something with you.”

Lan Baoyin and Jiang Susu immediately became nervous. Even the usually careless Chen Pei sensed something unusual from Old Matriarch Wei’s expression.

Chen Pei said, “Grandmother, feel free to instruct me. There’s no need to discuss!”

Old Matriarch Wei said, “No, this has to be discussed. Grandmother wants to ask if you’re doing well in the Wei family?”

“Sure,” Chen Pei replied without thinking.

Lan Baoyin and Jiang Susu also nodded heavily.

“Third brother, Fourth brother, and Fifth brother pa.s.sed away early. The Wei family has let you down and made you widows at such a young age. I don’t want to continue delaying you. If you want to remarry, I will let you get married like biological granddaughters. If you can grow old with your husband, it will naturally be best. If you suffer grievances, the Wei family will always be your home.”

“Grandmother!”

“Grandmother!”

“Grandmother!”

Their expressions changed drastically.

Old Matriarch Wei looked at them lovingly. “I don’t mean to chase you away. I hope that you can make your own decisions for the rest of your lives.”

–

Chen Pei left.

She was not getting married, but wandering the martial world.

Before Elder Qiu and Granny Nie left Thousand Mountain Island, they gave her a token.

She felt that it was not bad to go to Thousand Mountain Island to train first.

She would return to the Wei family. She was a member of the Wei family in life and a ghost of the Wei family in death.

“Sanlang, what’s your greatest wish?”

“Peace in the world!”

“Other than this?”

“Yes… With a sword, I shall travel the world!”

“But… you can’t even defeat Little Six. Aren’t you afraid of being bullied in the martial world?”

Sanlang’s archery was brilliant and he was the most powerful divine archer in the Wei family.

However, in terms of internal energy and movement techniques, he was slightly inferior to his brothers.

“Isn’t there still you, wife? Whoever bullies me, you’ll teach him a lesson for me!”

“Oh, okay.”

Chen Pei rode off valiantly.

Li Wan looked at Chen Pei’s departing back and asked Wei Qing, “Is Third Sister-in-law doing this for Third Brother’s unfinished wish?”

Wei Qing shook his head. “Third Brother has never wanted to wander the martial world. The reason why Third Brother said that is because Third Brother knows that Third Sister-in-law has always had a martial world dream.”

“Hey! Third Sister-in-law, wait for me!”

It was Jiang Susu.

“I want to go to Thousand Mountain Island too! I want to attend Alliance Master Jiang’s wedding with Palace Lord Yun!”

“Sihu, hurry up! If you can’t catch up to Third Sister-in-law, you’re a useless horse!”

The hooves of the four tigers smoked!

The baby was the most powerful!!!

Li Wan asked curiously, “Why did Fifth Sister-in-law…”

Wei Qing smiled. “The Jiang family sent someone to pick her up. I heard that they found her a marriage.”

Li Wan said in a daze, “So she’s… escaping the marriage?”

Madam Jiang did not want to get married.

Wasn’t life good with money, power, and freedom?

Why did she want to find a man to drag her down?

In addition, if she wanted a child, she did not have to give birth herself. There were so many in the residence!

Lan Baoyin was going to remarry.

The day before they parted, she lay in Old Matriarch Wei’s arms and cried.

Old Matriarch Wei hugged her and choked to the point of speechlessness.

“Baoyin… My Baoyin…”

Old Matriarch Wei cried uncontrollably.

At the side, Madam Wei’s tears fell like broken beads.

The place she was going to marry was very far. Her husband was a local merchant and was a distant cousin to her.

“I know. I won’t meet a better man in my life than Silang.”

“Second Sister-in-law, I’m very envious of you and Xiaoxiao. I’m envious of you having your own children.”

“I… want to be a mother too.”
