Helian Rong's trip to Eastern Chu did not end with Xiao Bao's first birthday celebration.
After attending Xiaobao's first birthday banquet, Helian Rong also went to the Yong'an Prince's Mansion with Su Renzhong and Duanmu Junyu.
I went to see the place where they used to live.
When Uncle Ping and Aunt Ping saw Su Renzhong and Duanmu Junyu return, they were so excited that tears streamed down their faces, and they knelt down before them with a "plop": "General, Madam."
The other old servants of the Prince of Yong'an's mansion also knelt down excitedly when they saw the two return.
They already knew that the General was still alive, and they also knew that his wife was the Empress of Western Liang. In fact, his wife had even visited them at the palace before. They never expected that they would see the General and his wife again.
Over the years, they had heard many rumors about the general and his wife.
Some say the Grand General was actually a member of the Northern Wei royal family, while others say he later went to the Western Liang with his wife to become the emperor's consort. In short, there are all sorts of rumors.
Over the years, they had longed to see the General and his wife again, but these old servants had neither the ability to go to Northern Wei nor Western Liang, so they could only wait for the General and his wife to return in this old house.
Unexpectedly, by some miracle, the general and his wife finally returned.
"Uncle Ping, Aunt Ping, get up quickly." Su Renzhong still remembered them. He had unintentionally saved the couple and brought them back to the Marquis's mansion. He never expected that they would still be there.
The two men stood up, their eyes brimming with tears, and looked at Su Renzhong: "General, it's so good that you're alive! We old servants have been dreaming of seeing you. And Madam, it's so wonderful that you can come back to see us again!"
Now that their dream has come true, they can die without regret.
Su Renzhong was also moved by their loyalty, and looked at Helian Rong and introduced them: "This is my grandfather, who was also the emperor of Northern Wei."
Everyone immediately knelt down again, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Unexpectedly, their general was actually a member of the royal family left behind by the Northern Wei. No wonder the general hadn't returned for so long; he must have been in the Northern Wei all along.
I heard that the Grand General is already the Crown Prince of Northern Wei, and their young master has been studying governance under the Northern Wei emperor.
Helian Rong was also moved as he looked at the old servants: "Get up, all of you. It's kind of you to still remember them."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Su Renzhong and Duanmu Junyu led Helian Rong on a tour of the Prince's Palace.
It's no wonder it's now a royal residence. The former marquis's mansion underwent renovations, preserving the original architecture while also expanding it considerably. Making the former marquis's mansion even bigger and more beautiful shows Xuan Yuanzhan's thoughtfulness; even though they no longer live in Dongchu, he still managed to renovate this royal residence so well.
Su Renzhong and Duanmu Junyu reminisced about the past together, strolling through the mansion and recalling many old stories.
After visiting the Prince's Mansion, Helian Rong also wanted to visit Sujia Village.
It just so happens that Su Renzhong also wants to go back to Sujia Village again.
Su Xuening and Su Yun'an wanted to go too, so the whole family rode the Azure Dragon Divine Beast to Su Family Village.
When Su Renzhong and his group arrived at Su Family Village riding the Azure Dragon Divine Beast, they utterly terrified the villagers, who had never seen anything like it before.
As soon as the Azure Dragon mythical beast arrived at the village entrance, the entire Su family village rushed out and knelt down.
When Su Renzhong and Su Yun'an dismounted from the Azure Dragon Divine Beast, the people of Su Family Village could hardly believe their eyes.
Until Su Renzhong and his group walked up to Su Xiaoli, the village chief of Sujia Village, they said, "Uncle."
Su Xiaoli stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "Zhong'er... no, General, is that you? You're really still alive?"
The villagers of Sujia Village never expected that Su Renzhong would come back alive.
After all, his grave has been in the village for many years, how could he still be alive!
“It’s me, I’m still alive.” Su Renzhong reached out and helped Su Xiaoli up, then introduced him, “I’m bringing my grandfather, my wife and children back to Su Family Village for a visit.”
"Good, it's good that you're alive, it's good that you're back."
With tears in her eyes, Su Xiaoli looked at Duanmu Junyu, Su Xuening, and Su Yun'an.
He had met Su Yun'an before, so he first bowed to Su Yun'an and said, "Young Master."
Then, remembering something, he looked at Su Xuening and said, "You must be Her Majesty the Empress!"
I heard that the general's daughter became the empress; this must be the empress herself.
Everyone in Sujia Village turned to look at Su Xuening, knowing that the daughter of the Great General had become the Empress.
So this is what the Empress looks like! She's absolutely stunning!
However, the general's wife was also very beautiful; the empress must have taken after her mother.
When the young master first came to their village, they felt that he had an extraordinary bearing. Now they finally know who he took after.
Seeing that they only greeted her, Su Xuening immediately felt embarrassed and said, "I am indeed the Empress of Dongchu, but no one here is of lower status than me."
As Su Xuening spoke, she first pointed to Helian Rong and introduced them to everyone: "This is my great-grandfather, who is also my father's biological grandfather. He was the emperor of Northern Wei. This is my father, whom everyone knows. He was also the crown prince of Northern Wei and the emperor's consort of Western Liang. This is my mother, Her Majesty the Empress of Western Liang. And this is my younger brother. He came to Su Family Village before to investigate my father's death. I'm sure everyone knows him."
Su Xuening's introduction left everyone speechless and dumbfounded.
Everyone could hardly believe their ears; it was as if Su Xuening was speaking gibberish, something they couldn't understand at all.
What is she even talking about?!
They could understand that she was the Empress of Eastern Chu, but how could she also be the Emperor of Northern Wei and the Empress of Western Liang? What did that mean?
