"What is this?"
"By the way, Steward Chai, Princess Zhenguo has a relative from afar. This is the certificate from the Bureau of Residence. The person is waiting outside the door. I dare not let the person in. I will go and verify with Princess Zhenguo first."
Butler Chai took the document and looked at it again and again, his face expressionless.
"Stand guard outside the door for now, I'll handle this."
"yes."
Qiao Lian'er was in the warm pavilion, playing with several nephews and nieces.
She could pull out many novelties from her spatial storage, and her nephews and nieces all adored her, surrounding her and refusing to let go whenever she had free time.
Seeing the children's warm and lively smiles, Qiao Lian'er was also in a good mood.
Butler Chai arrived at the door: "Princess."
Qiao Lian'er put Qiao Yue, who was clinging to her like an octopus, down and walked out of the warm pavilion.
"What's up."
"Several people came to the door, claiming to be relatives of the princess, and they even brought kinship certificates from the Bureau of Residence." Butler Chai handed the documents to Qiao Lian'er.
Qiao Lian'er glanced at the contents and her eyes darkened.
Unexpectedly, it was Song Fusheng's family who came to the capital.
Song Fusheng was Old Man Song's brother, belonging to another branch of the Song family. He also lived in Datian Village and was quite wealthy, considered rich in the rural area, similar to the Shen family.
Because they were doing well, Song Fusheng's family was wary and distrustful of the villagers, especially his elder brother's family. When Old Mrs. Song fell on hard times, she went to Song Fusheng's family for help several times, but was turned away each time.
Of course, this is a matter between them. Compared to that, Old Lady Song's character is even more despicable and does not deserve sympathy or pity.
Unexpectedly, Song Fusheng's family came to seek refuge with her. If it weren't for this incident, Qiao Lian'er would have forgotten about the family's existence.
If someone is living a good life in the countryside, with fields, land, and a house, yet has to travel thousands of miles, something must have happened at home.
Butler Chai noticed that Qiao Lian'er's expression was a bit off and immediately guessed that the princess didn't like that family at all.
He said, "There shouldn't be any problems with this document, right?"
“There’s nothing wrong with the document; it’s stamped by the Ministry of Personnel’s subordinate office,” Qiao Lian’er said confidently.
Regardless of how Song Fusheng's family obtained it, the document is genuine.
Logically speaking, country folk are straightforward. They were tired and hungry, and once they arrived in the capital, they should have been eager to find her and seek a place to settle down. However, they went to the Bureau of Residence first, which is quite intriguing. There must have been someone else involved.
This government office was very obscure; it wasn't even established in other dynasties, and few people in the capital knew about it, let alone ordinary people in the countryside.
Then who could have done it? A name popped into Qiao Lian'er's mind: Song Rui'er.
That's right, only he recognized Song Fusheng's family, and only he knew the relationship between Song Fusheng's family and her.
"So, what are the princess's plans for next? And how should these people be settled?"
Qiao Lian'er said, "Tell them that Princess Zhenguo is away on business and will be out for the next few days."
Now that it's officially confirmed that she's related to Song Fusheng's family, she has to be responsible for them and can't act like she did before.
But how could she possibly let those who wanted to cling to her and enjoy wealth and luxury through her do so?
