In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
During this period, the Taoist temples in the city were inexplicably closed down and the Taoists inside disappeared.
Chen Zhongyan, the prefect of Huaiqing Prefecture, took revenge by revealing problems such as short-changing Pan's shop and selling inferior goods as good ones, and he closed many of Mr. Pan's shops.
The Pan family is large and is considered a big family in Huaiqing Prefecture.
It was easy for Chen Zhongyan to find evidence against him, so he easily put many members of the Pan family in jail.
It was Mr. Pan’s 70th birthday, and only a few people came.
Now Mr. Pan also became famous.
He has been able to run rampant in the village for so many years, so he is no pushover.
He was a commoner and could not compete with Chen Zhongyan, but one of his daughters married the son of a third-rank official in Bianjing City many years ago.
He directly asked someone to contact his daughter and let his son-in-law and his wife's family make the decision for him.
But although his wife's family was a high-ranking official, they were not in the Ministry of Personnel and could not control Chen Zhongyan. So Mr. Pan spent a lot of money and asked his son-in-law to find someone in Bianjing City.
Of course, Hua Changjue and Qiu Mobai were behind this, secretly instigating things.
So, as a result, both the Chen family and the Pan family suffered heavy losses.
The Pan family almost lost everything and went from being the richest family in Huaiqing Prefecture to a poor family.
Several of his concubines took advantage of the chaos at home, stole his money, and ran away with other men.
Mr. Pan was so shocked that he lay in bed unable to get up. His sons, daughters, and other relatives started fighting over his limited property, and someone was almost killed.
Chen Zhongyan was not having an easy time either. His superiors took bribes, made things difficult for him, and found fault with his political achievements.
The prefect, who was originally a fourth-rank official, was demoted to a fifth-rank county magistrate, and he was a small county magistrate in a poor and remote area.
In the end, Chen Zhongyan had no choice but to take up the post with his entire family.
The key point is that before he left, he found that the black wooden sign of Princess Zijin was missing. This made him very angry and he beat several servants to death. But the matter could only be left unresolved.
He was sure that Wei Ling had stolen it.
On the other side, Wei Ling was not doing well either. Her two secret bases were destroyed.
All her savings that she had accumulated over the years were wiped out, and her people were either killed or injured.
She really couldn't figure out who the young man who broke into the cave was. If she wanted to find out before, it wouldn't be a problem at all. But now, she was powerless.
For some unknown reason, Gao Yuanlin actually found the evidence that she had framed Princess Zijin, and began to hunt him down everywhere frantically.
Now, she can only hide from place to place and struggle to survive.
Many plans had to be put aside first.
Qiu Mobai had been secretly watching her movements. This was also due to the fact that Wen Hao's Night Owl Organization was mostly composed of talented people. They also knew the secret codes of the Dali Kingdom.
During this month, in Bianjing City.
The crown prince Zhao Zecheng has ascended the throne and is known as Emperor Xiaode. However, he did not make his crown princess Hou Yingying the queen. He only made Yingfei.
This puzzled many old officials, but few people commented on it. The reason was self-evident. All families with daughters were eyeing the position of queen.
Occasionally, a few loyal people raised objections, thinking that this was against etiquette and law, but they were quickly suppressed.
Hua Changjue also knew that he was going to reduce the number of fans, so half a month ago, he took Hua Lingyi, Li Zhan, Gao Sheng and Qiu Mobai and went to the north first.
Half a month later, after Jiang finished her confinement, the remaining people divided into several groups and continued their journey northward.
The day before departure was the seventh day of the seventh month, Qingqing’s fourth birthday.
Hua Qingqing clearly felt that the restrictions on her were less severe and her mind was clearer.
Everyone also discovered that Hua Qingqing seemed to have grown up and become more sensible, and no longer just asked for food.
Nor would he take the children out to play crazy with Liangliang and Xiaohei every day, doing nothing serious.
Because they wanted to keep a low profile, Qingqing's birthday was not celebrated in a big way. Only the two people in the house had a meal together.
Hua Qingqing was happy to receive gifts from everyone.
Even Hua Changjue, Qiu Mobai and others who had already left had prepared gifts in advance.
"Sister Qingqing, look at the gift I gave you first!" Fat Wang stood in front of Hua Qingqing, holding a small box, very persistently.
"Sister Qingqing, you still have to look up to me!" Xu Sheng was not to be outdone and stuffed a small box into Qingqing's arms.
Zhu Yu also came over with a box in his hand. Seeing that Qingqing couldn't take it, he said unhappily, "Sister Qingqing, I have to see the gift I gave you!"
Hua Qingqing was also very curious about what they would give her, so she opened them one by one to see.
In Wang Xiaopang's box is a woven bamboo dragonfly! The weaving is not particularly good, but it is obvious that it was made with great care.
Hua Qingqing likes it very much.
"Thank you, little fat brother, I like it very much!"
Wang Xiaopang blushed, "Sister Qingqing, as long as you like it!"
Hua Qingqing opened Xu Sheng's box again, and there were three eggs inside!
Hua Qingqing was surprised, "What kind of egg is this?"
Xu Sheng said embarrassedly, "I found it in the yard, on a tree! It looks like a swallow's egg!"
Hua Qingqing originally liked small animals. Seeing these three small eggs, she became even more cautious, "Thank you, Brother Xu! I want to hatch them all!"
Xu Sheng raised his lips happily. "I knew that Sister Qingqing would like it."
Hua Qingqing carefully handed the box of eggs to Cuiwei and helped her put it away. She then opened the box Zhu Yu gave her.
Inside was a purse embroidered with many small flowers. The embroidery was not very good, but it was obvious that it was embroidered by Zhu Yu himself.
Zhu Yu was a little embarrassed, "I just learned it! And I'm not very good at embroidery yet!"
Hua Qingqing shook her head. "Sister, your embroidery is very beautiful! I like it!"
Zhu Yu smiled happily when he heard her say that.
Everyone found it very interesting to see Qingqing opening the presents, so they just let Qingqing open all of them.
Hua Changjue, a beautiful and exquisite knife. How should I put it, he is a straight man.
Jiang, a box of beautiful pearls, which she collected bit by bit. Give them to Qingqing as marbles to play with.
Mrs. Liu was wearing a beautiful dress, matching shoes and inner garments, all of which were well made.
Hua Lingxuan and Zhang Fengjin studied for a long time and gave a set of books. It was very Hua Lingxuan's nerdy style.
Hua Lingyi, a beautiful slingshot. He thought his sister could use it.
Hua Lingjian, a small bow and arrow. He also felt that Qingqing could use it.
Hua Wanru, a pill that saved my life at the critical moment. Very useful.
Hua Lingshu, Hua Lingnan, Hua Lingpeng, Hua Wanfeng and others had a lot of money, but they felt that the most important thing was money and food. They pooled a lot of money and bought Qingqing a good job.
Qingqing saw this and was moved by their simplicity.
Qiu Mobai's gift was sent by He Shen. It was a big box.
Hua Qingqing was curious and went forward to open it.
When I saw what was inside, I was shocked.
