After walking for almost twenty days, we finally arrived at the outskirts of the capital.

The team will rest for one day and enter the city tomorrow.

Gao Zhijun, along with Qinglong, Moxue, Canglang, Liu Ningchu, Huo Jinqian, Nanny Tian Chunlan, quietly left the team and sneaked into the capital.

When we arrived at the gate of the capital, carriages were lined up for inspection before entering the city.

"My daughter, we will return to the General's Mansion soon. Mother will choose a day to introduce you to the rich young ladies in the capital."

Liu Ningchu said happily to Gao Zhijun.

"Mother, there's no rush. Once Jinqian takes the exam and the results are announced, it won't be too late to do anything. Instead, I want to introduce him to the ministers in the capital."

Gao Zhijun declined politely.

Having just arrived in the capital, she didn't want to be recognized too loudly. She wanted to wait for Jinqian to release the results, and if she could get the top scorer, they would both be publicly recognized at the same time.

Even if he didn't get the top spot or be among the top three, she would still appear with him and announce to the world that he, Huo Jinqian, had her protection.

Although she is a princess, she has a brave cavalry general behind her.

Since my father won the battle this time, the emperor will definitely reward him and his position may be promoted to a higher level.

The next level above the General of Cavalry is Viscount, which is a title. I wonder if the Emperor is willing to confer the title of Viscount on my father.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. The imperial examination will begin in five days. Let Jinqian study hard these few days, and I'll take you around the capital."

Of course Liu Ningchu agreed. She agreed to her daughter's marriage with Huo Jinqian, and she liked this son-in-law very much. He was careful and conscientious in his work and was good to her daughter.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Gao Zhijun agreed.

During this time together, she liked this cheap mother very much. She was really good to her and made her feel the so-called family love. Sometimes she felt sorry for the original owner. She didn't have such a good mother, and she really got away with it.

"Please show us your pass!" When the carriage arrived at the capital gate, the guard stopped the carriage and asked Qinglong.

Nanny Tian handed the general's token to the guard and said, "We are from the General of Cavalry's mansion. Inside is our general's wife. The carriage behind us also belongs to the general's mansion. Please let us in."

The guard took a look at the token and immediately let her in: "Madam General, please enter the city!"

Nanny Tian asked Qinglong to drive in, and Canglang followed behind.

The carriage headed towards the general's mansion and arrived there a quarter of an hour later.

The guards standing on both sides of the gate of the general's mansion saw the carriage stop, and then saw Nanny Tian, ​​who served the lady, get off the car, followed by Chunlan, and then a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old got off. She jumped down and then helped a woman down. It turned out to be their lady.

"Hello, Madam, you are back!"

The two guards immediately ran down and saluted respectfully.

"Uh, I'm back. Is everything alright at the mansion?"

Liu Ningchu asked the guard.

"Good, everything is fine. The eldest young lady has taken good care of the house."

The guard told the truth.

"Okay, this is the young lady. You must be respectful when you see her in the future. That is Mr. Huo, your future son-in-law. You must also be respectful to him."

Liu Ningchu said to the two guards guarding the door.

She was afraid that these people would look down on her and neglect Huo Jinqian.

"The servant greets the young lady, uncle!"

The two doormen immediately saluted Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian.

"No need to be so polite!"

Gao Zhijun said.

"Okay, you two drive the carriage to the stable."

Liu Ningchu said to the two guards.

"Yes, ma'am!"

Two guards drove the carriage to the back gate of the general's mansion, drove into the stable, and then moved the gifts to the front yard.

Liu Ningchu brought Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian into the mansion. The maids and servants wherever they passed all bowed to Liu Ningchu. Liu Ningchu also introduced Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian.

When she arrived at the third courtyard, Wei Qingyan heard the servant's report and knew that her mother-in-law had returned, so she hurried over.

"Mother, I didn't know you were coming back today and I didn't go out to greet you. Please forgive me, mother!"

Wei Qingyan pleaded guilty to Liu Ningchu.

She thought her parents-in-law would not be back until tomorrow, so she stayed at home today to prepare and just returned to her yard to rest.

"Qingyan, there's no need for this. We came back quietly, you definitely didn't know. This is your sister, Zhijun. This is your brother-in-law, Huo Jinqian."

Liu Ningchu did not blame Wei Qingyan. She was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

"Hello, aunt! Hello, uncle!"

Wei Qingyan walked up to Gao Zhijun, shook her hand, and said happily.

"Hello, sister-in-law! You are so beautiful. It is a blessing for that rough guy, my brother, to marry you."

Gao Zhijun liked this sister-in-law who was approachable, not arrogant, and not pretentious.

She doesn't like women who are delicate, pretentious, arrogant and domineering.

Liu Ningchu smiled. She felt that her daughter was right. It was really a blessing for her son that the brat found such a good daughter-in-law.

"Aunt, you are so good at talking. I can't beat you."

Wei Qingyan was embarrassed by Gao Zhijun's words. She hadn't expected her aunt to be so eloquent and sharp-tongued. She couldn't win an argument with her at all.

"Sister-in-law, let's go in."

Gao Zhijun held Liu Ningchu's hand while holding Wei Qingyan's hand and walked into the three-story courtyard.

Huo Jinqian, Canglang and others followed behind.

After entering the east wing, Nanny Tian and Chunlan went to boil water and make tea as they were familiar with the process. Then they brought it over and gave it to the lady, the young lady, the eldest young master's wife, and the son-in-law. They then stood beside the lady to serve her.

Mo Xue also stood next to Gao Zhijun, and Canglang stood next to Huo Jinqian.

"Zhijun, can you live with me? That way you can spend more time with me and talk."
