The two of them slept until lunch time, then slowly got up and went to their respective parents' homes.
Mu Ruxue's parents live far away, not in the capital, so it doesn't matter much whether she goes back or not.
But Yun Ruoxi has a special identity. She is the legitimate granddaughter of the Duke of England.
The Duke of England's mansion has always been dominated by men, and since they finally welcomed such a precious girl, they naturally pampered her in every way.
He should have returned home early, but it was already noon and there was still no sign of him. The people in the Duke of Ying'an's mansion were already anxious and sent people to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion to inquire about the news.
Yun Ruoxi really didn't want to go back, but she was afraid that the original owner's family would worry, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet, pack up her things, and set off on the road back to the Duke of Ying's Mansion.
As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the door, she saw many people waiting at the door.
Yun Ruoxi got off the carriage and looked at her five brothers waiting at the door. Warmth surged in her heart, her eyes slightly reddened, and she called softly, "Brothers, Xixi is back."
The eldest brother Yun Ruoyang is usually gentle and calm, but when he saw the sister he had loved for fifteen years returned safely, his heart finally settled down.
He raised his hand and gently ruffled Yun Ruoxi's hair, just like when they were little. He said softly, "It's good that you're back. Let's go in and talk. The elders have been waiting for a long time."
"I'm sorry to have worried my brothers, it's really..."
"Don't worry, sister. Everyone in the mansion knows about this matter. Let's go in first and talk about it."
After Yun Ruoxi greeted the other brothers in turn, they all entered the mansion together.
In Shou'an Hall, Grandfather and Grandmother sat at the head of the table. Yun Ruoxi walked in gracefully, bowed, and said in a clear voice, "I, your unfilial granddaughter Yun Ruoxi, pay my respects to Grandfather and Grandmother, and to all the elders. I am returning home today, but my husband was summoned by the Emperor and was unable to come with me. I hope the elders will understand."
The Duke of Ying, Yun Ruoxi's grandfather, quickly stood up and helped her up, his face full of love: "Good child, we have all heard about what happened in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. It's not your fault. It's my dear granddaughter who suffered."
Grandmother's eyes welled up as she grabbed Yun Ruoxi's hand, carefully examining her from head to toe. She confirmed that she hadn't suffered any hardship before feeling somewhat relieved. "Grandmother's Xixi is a sensible and good child. Don't worry about the affairs of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion. Your uncles have already gone to inquire about the situation. If anything bad really happens, your grandfather will have to protect the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion even if it means risking his reputation."
Yun Ruoxi thought of the tragic ending of the Duke of Ying's Mansion in the book, and her heart was filled with worry.
The book records that when the Wu'an Marquis's mansion was ransacked, Duke Ying went to the palace to see the emperor and plead for him.
But the emperor remained unmoved. Finally, the Duke of Ying was forced to use the Iron and Blood Book to barely save the lives of everyone in the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion and prevent them from becoming slaves. They were only prohibited from serving as officials in the court for three years.
This is a blessing in disguise, but even so, the heroine Su Lingling still doesn't give up.
Only because of their loyalty, others did not dare to attack the people in Wu'an Marquis Mansion easily.
However, Wu'an Houfu was eventually tortured by the officials bribed by Su Lingling in advance, and almost died on the way to exile.
However, the Duke of England's Mansion, having lost the protection of the Iron-Blooded and Danshu, was framed by the heroine and gradually declined, and everyone suffered one after another.
In the end, the only descendant left in the Duke of Yingguo's mansion was Yun Ruoxi's youngest brother Yun Ruofeng.
Forced into a corner, Yun Ruofeng joined Prince Duan's army and finally started a rebellion.
Although it failed, it became the biggest stumbling block for the heroine and the prince in their journey forward, and delayed the prince's ascension to the throne by ten years.
