"I came to see you. I guessed you missed me!" Xia Zhiliao said with a smile, which made Lao Feng's heart almost melt.
"I've been thinking about it. I miss you so much." Old Feng took the little girl's hand and said, "Come in, are you cold? Are you tired? Have you just arrived or have you been here for a few days?"
Old Feng looked so concerned about Xia Zhiliao that outsiders would think she was his granddaughter.
Xia Zhiliao also answered one by one, which made Old Feng laugh so hard that he couldn't stop.
He also knew that the little girl would not bring her parents with her when she came to see him. As an elder in the mansion, he knew something about the situation.
"You came at an unfortunate time. The princess is not at home."
"Have you been to the palace?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
Princess Yi Yang was a very nice person, but she seldom attended banquets and did not socialize much.
"Yes, it's rare for her to go out. I'm afraid she wants to talk more with the Queen Mother. She doesn't know you're coming yet, right?"
Xia Zhiliao nodded, "We are not in a hurry."
"No, I'd better send someone to the palace to inform the princess. She will be happier than me when she knows you're coming!"
Although Lao Feng is not an official, everyone in the mansion respects him. Although he does an insignificant job, his words are still effective.
"By the way, girl, tell grandpa quietly, is that thing settled this time?" Old Feng asked in a low voice.
He was also afraid that if it wasn't the case, everyone would be embarrassed.
"Guess what!" The little girl's smiling face gave Old Feng some idea in his mind.
He urged the servants in the mansion, "Hurry, hurry up and tell the princess to ride a horse, ride a horse quickly!"
The servant did not dare to delay and almost swung his whip.
But it was not so easy to enter the palace. By the time the news was passed on, it was already time for lunch.
Originally, the Queen Mother wanted to invite Princess Yi Yang to have dinner with her, but when Princess Yi Yang heard that Xia Zhiliao and his family of three had arrived, she swayed and almost dropped the teacup in her hand.
"Sister-in-law! Did I hear it right?" Princess Yi Yang asked in a trembling voice.
The Queen Mother nodded. They were all smart people. The Xia family returned so quickly and went straight to the Princess's Mansion. The mansion also sent someone to notify them. Everyone knew why.
"Go back quickly. You've finally got what you were waiting for. This is a great thing."
Princess Yiyang's eyes welled up with tears, "Imperial sister-in-law..."
Nanny Cui's eyes also turned red. She supported Princess Yi Yang and was extremely excited inside.
"Alright, alright, I know what you are going to say. Go back quickly and bring them to the palace for me to see tomorrow."
Princess Yi Yang nodded and walked hurriedly at first, but she still thought it was too slow, so she ran.
She snatched the whip from the servant, pulled the reins, and swiftly mounted the horse. Princess Yi Yang, dressed in palace clothes, seemed to have returned to her heroic appearance in her youth.
She is eager to go home now.
"Princess...Princess!" The servant reacted belatedly.
Aunt Cui smiled and said, "Stop shouting, and get in the car."
The servant didn't react yet. How could he ride in the princess's carriage?
"Hurry up, are you going to walk back?"
On that day, everyone on the long street saw Princess Yi Yang riding a horse at full speed. It was an indescribably beautiful sight.
"Whose woman is this? She is so old, and she is still riding a horse?"
"You are so blind that you don't recognize the real person. This is Princess Yiyang. It is thanks to her that we can have the peaceful life we have today!"
"Is she the Princess Yiyang whose husband died in battle and whose daughter also died?"
Princess Yiyang turned back upon hearing this, and frightened the person who had spoken so much that he knelt down and begged for mercy, "Princess, calm down. I was a bad-mouthed person, and I will hit myself!"
As he said this the man was about to slap himself.
"Stop." Princess Yiyang shook her head gently, "My daughter is not dead."
The man was so scared that he didn't care what she said and just kept nodding.
Princess Yiyang took a deep breath and said to everyone present: "My daughter is not dead. My Yue'er is still waiting for me at home."
But everyone knew that she was crazy, so they just thought she was talking nonsense again. Thinking of her experience, everyone couldn't help but feel some pity for her.
How could such a good person end up like this?
Princess Yi Yang did not explain much. She spurred her horse and whipped it, eager to return home just to see her daughter as soon as possible.
"Yue'er, where is my Yue'er?"
Princess Yi Yang strode in, her voice filled with joy.
Xia Chen stood up, tears welling up in her eyes, and looked at the woman who came in.
Their eyes met, and Princess Yiyang took her into her arms, "My Yue'er, you are finally back."
"Mom!" Xia Chen called out a little awkwardly, but she still called out.
"Hey, mom is here, mom is here!"
Xia Chen cried, "My mother's horse was disobedient and threw me down. You have to punish it by making it do horse stance for an hour."
This was a bit confusing, but Princess Yiyang became even more excited, “Yes, but Yue’er is a horse rider, and even though she is not very skilled, she still has responsibilities.”
"Mom, my stomach hurts, I can't do horse stance."
"Then mom will accompany you, okay?"
"good!"
The mother and daughter looked at each other and asked, "You remember everything?"
Princess Yiyang said with tears in her eyes, "What do you remember?"
"I remembered a lot of things, including the sesame cake that day. It was just that something urgent happened at home, so we couldn't..."
"Mother understands. No need to explain." Princess Yiyang said softly, "The most important thing is that you are back."
When seeing the mother and daughter recognizing each other, Xia Zhiliao couldn't help but have tears in her eyes. She turned her head and saw her father wiping his tears, crying even more miserably than she did.
"Jinjun!"
"I'm here!" Xia Jinjun wiped his tears. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
"Your family has worked hard to take care of my Yue'er over the years."
"She is my wife, it's only natural. Besides, she suffered a lot following me before."
Xia Chen shook her head, "It was hard back then."
Princess Yiyang patted her hands and said, "Mother knows, Jinjun, I am very satisfied with you. I have seen how good you are to Yue'er, and you are able to remain indifferent to the temptation of the girl from the Jiang family. This proves that you are a good person."
"Princess……"
"Still calling me princess?" Princess Yiyang had a stern face, but she was not fierce at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will take you to the palace to meet the emperor and have him restore Yue'er's identity."
"mother……"
"You have suffered so much these years. Mother will give you everything that belongs to you." Princess Yiyang curled her lips and looked at Xia Zhiliao, "My little Zhiliao, what should you call me this time?"
"Grandmother."
"Good boy!" Princess Yi Yang smiled from the bottom of her heart.
Xia Zhiliao winked at her two brothers, and the three siblings knelt down and kowtowed together.
Princess Yi Yang was truly satisfied and relieved.
That day, Nanny Cui asked someone to buy some firecrackers. Everyone was curious about what had happened in the princess's mansion. Could a widowed princess have any happy event?
