It was not until the palace banquet was over that Xia Zhiliao finally let go of his worries.
Those guys who love to stir up trouble were very quiet this time. I think it was because she was in the palace and she also heard about her brothers meeting Lu Seyan.
It's not that she has to be confrontational with her brothers to be satisfied, but it always makes her feel more at ease. If her second brother is cold and distant to her, he will not rebel for her.
Lu Seyan didn't want to talk about the Xia family, but she knew that Lu Ruoyan and her daughter would definitely let her mother know.
Instead of letting them exaggerate and irritate her unreasonable mother, it is better for her to say it herself. By the way, she can also remind her not to do stupid things.
On the way back, Lu Seyan looked outside the car and saw a figure that was not familiar but one she had seen before. She had a good memory and would never forget the people she had seen or had some interactions with.
How come that kid came to the capital? The Xia family really does benefit from one person's success. He has just confirmed his identity and he has already started to win people over?
When Bai Huiru knew they were back, she rushed to see Lu Seyan. With her status, she was not qualified to enter a place like the palace, but she was full of curiosity about it.
So if Lu Seyan had the opportunity to enter the palace, she would naturally come and inquire about it.
"Have you seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Lu Seyan frowned. Bai Huiru knew that Lu Seyan was impatient, but she felt that as a mother, she must let her daughter know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a good support.
"Yanyan, mother knows that you are ambitious and want to be the principal wife, but that is the Crown Prince, the future emperor. If you follow her, you will be a concubine and live in the palace."
"What's so good about the palace?" Lu Seyan asked back.
"What's wrong with the palace?"
Lu Seyan shook her head, knowing that no matter how much she said, it would be useless. The old lady wanted to use her marriage to make the Hou Mansion more glorious, and her mother didn't even consider her.
"I have something to tell you, too." Lu Seyan looked at her mother, "The Xia family is coming to the capital again."
"Why are you here again? Are they causing you trouble?"
"No."
"They don't dare. You are now a young lady in the Hou Mansion. What can they do even if they have someone to back them up?"
"Don't they need anyone's support now?"
"Why?" Bai Huiru asked back.
Lu Seyan no longer kept the secret and told the truth.
"What?" Bai Huiru spat out a mouthful of water. Fortunately, Lu Ruoyan dodged quickly. "You said that Xia Jinjun's wimpy wife is a princess? That stinky girl has become a county lady?"
Lu Seyan nodded, "So if you see him in the future, you have to be careful, because he is someone you can't afford to offend now."
"She...she is really the princess's daughter? She can't be fake, right?"
"Do you think the emperor and the queen mother are stupid?" Lu Seyan shook her head. "Although we had some unpleasantness before, it's over. You should not cause trouble again."
Bai Huiru sighed at this time, and Lu Seyan felt a little puzzled.
"Oh, this is my fault."
Bai Huiru wanted to slap herself, but was afraid of the pain, so she just gently wiped her cheek. "At the beginning, I just thought that my mother and I were helpless in the capital, and the Hou Mansion didn't like us at that time. I thought that if Xia Jinjun graduated from high school one day, he might be our support."
“But it went wrong.”
Bai Huiru regretted it deeply, "Who knew that his humble wife was actually a princess? If we had known earlier, we would have gotten along better. Now we would have the confidence."
"Why do you always want to rely on others?" Lu Seyan sighed helplessly.
"Yanyan, we are women. How can women survive without relying on others?"
Lu Seyan shook her head, feeling that she was talking at cross purposes. "I've already told you, don't make any more plans. Even though the Xia family is now of a special status, things have already happened, so let's just leave it at that."
Bai Huiru actually thought so and wanted to get closer to Xia Jinjun, but after being warned by her daughter, she gave up the idea.
“Don’t forget, it’s Xia Jinjun’s wife who is extraordinary. If it’s not Xia Jinjun, the person you want to rely on is useless.”
Bai Huiru smiled and said, "Yeah, he has to rely on his wife. How shameful."
Lu Seyan actually had something on her mind, so she didn't talk too much to her mother. "You just need to know not to cause trouble for me, and you don't have to worry about the rest."
…
After returning to the princess's mansion, the children went out to play. Chang Yue looked at the man with a calm face and asked with concern: "Is everything going well in the palace today?"
"Okay, but I don't know any of those people, so it's a bit awkward."
Chang Yue smiled faintly, "Jinjun, I think you should continue with the scientific examination."
Xia Jinjun was stunned.
"Don't think too much. I don't dislike your status. I just think that you have studied for so many years and taken so many exams. It doesn't matter if you take one more exam."
"I know you won't dislike me, but..."
"Jinjun, I think everything depends on human effort. I think you will be a good official when you become one."
Xia Jinjun thought about what his little girl had said about the fate of being a corrupt official, so he no longer dared to be one. He just wanted to live a good life.
"Jinjun, not for others, but for yourself, take the test again."
Xia Jinjun thought that Jiang Xiaoying was already married, and his wife was also a princess, so she could no longer bully others by taking advantage of her power.
He did hear some unpleasant words today, but he just laughed it off.
However, as my wife said, after reading for so many years, I naturally want to give myself an explanation.
"Do you really want me to take the test?"
Chang Yue smiled and nodded, "If you are worried about the family farmland, you can leave it to my third brother. I think he is doing a good job."
"Since you want me to be well, I will take the exam. But don't worry, even for you and the children, I will keep myself clean and won't do anything wrong."
After Xia Jinjun announced the news, the three boys just reminded them again that they must become an official after their daddy becomes an official.
Xia Jinjun nodded, this is natural.
Princess Yi Yang didn't have any objection. If her son-in-law had a promising future, it would naturally be a good thing. Besides, she was afraid that rumors would make her son-in-law unhappy.
As for her son-in-law's concern for her daughter, she thinks there is nothing wrong with it.
"It's a good thing that Jinjun wants to study. If necessary, I can also find someone to invite a few famous teachers over."
"No need, Mom, this is too much trouble. I...I am not sure I can get into high school."
"That's fine. Some people never get it right from childhood to old age." Princess Yiyang smiled, "It's just that Yue'er has her own things to do, and I'm afraid you'll be bored."
"Thank you, mother."
Princess Yiyang smiled and nodded, "Don't pay attention to those people's nonsense, they are just outsiders. You have to live your life for yourself. You know the warmth and coldness of the water yourself. The most important thing is the deep love between you and Yue'er."
