Chapter 171 Old Lady Si Teaches a Lesson to Cultivators
The eunuch read out the imperial edict as instructed by the emperor.
"The Si family's granddaughter, Su Wanqing, is intelligent, clever, lovely, and has rendered meritorious service in saving the world. Therefore, she is hereby granted the title of Princess Qing'an, and her surname is changed from Su to Xia, becoming the imperial surname. This is hereby decreed!"
Qingbao's formal name changed from Su Wanqing to Xia Wanqing, and she became Princess Qing'an.
The house that Si He bought was renamed Princess's Residence after the signboard was changed.

Si Ye happily escorted the mother and daughter home.
The entire Si family has arrived.
Si Ye grinned from ear to ear, "In a little while, I'll go back to the Si family and pick out a dozen or so people to serve you. Our Princess's Mansion can't be without prestige!"
Good heavens, he actually became the princess's uncle!
What a magnificent sight this is!
"I thought you were just a playboy, but I didn't expect you to have such an opportunistic side." Si Han looked at Si Ye coldly.
He never bothered to please anyone.
Especially his own juniors.
"Sucking up to the powerful? So what if I did? You're just jealous that I got to latch onto Qingbao's coattails. Look at you, so sour and unwilling to admit it, insisting on being superior. Brother, I look down on you!"
Si Ye retorted without holding back.
Originally, Si Han was the only one of the three brothers with an official position, and his influence in the family was comparable to that of his father.
But now...
Haha, it's become a sinecure.
He himself was Qingbao's closest uncle.
"Didn't you hear what the Emperor said? Qingbao can even become the Emperor Emeritus if she wants. I advise you to seize this opportunity and quickly cling to Qingbao's coattails, otherwise you'll regret it when we're all dead."
Si Ye addressed each member of the Si family one by one.
Si Han's face was icy cold, Si Shilang's face was ugly, and Si's wife looked sorrowful.
Madam Si nodded, "Well said."
Among the Si family members, Si Ye is currently the most successful.
Si Ye personally carried Qing Bao down and into the Princess's residence.
"Little sister, how did I do?" Si Ye asked Si He for praise.
Si He remained indifferent to him, saying, "Yeah, whatever makes you happy."
She didn't feel much for her brothers and parents. Although Si Ye was helping her now, it was ultimately because of Qing Bao.
She will never forget what happened before, no matter how small!
Si Ye shrank back like a child who had done something wrong.
At this moment.
Qinghui rushed over, her face anxious.
"Madam, Miss, you had such an important matter to attend to, why didn't you send someone to find me? I..."
She was so tired that she was injured by Qingbao in the middle of the night and spent the whole night healing her wounds.
I got up too early this morning to cook porridge for them.
I just went back to sleep for a while.
Si He actually took Qing Bao out without sending anyone to call her.
Is this an attempt to ostracize her?
Qinghui was somewhat unconvinced.
They wanted to shift the blame onto their master.
Unexpectedly, the entire Si family turned to look at her.
Madam Si frowned. "Where did this maid come from, daring to be so audacious! Granny Gui, slap her!"
Granny Gui stepped forward and slapped Qinghui across the face.
Qinghui's eyes widened, completely stunned with anger. "You dare hit me?"
How dare a mere mortal hit her!
I'm so angry, I really want to hit someone.
"You slept in while your master went out, who else should I beat if not you? Haven't you ever served your master before? How dare you be so disrespectful!"
Granny Gui scolded her sternly, and then slapped her again.
Qinghui's cheeks instantly swelled up, and the pain made her eyes burn with raging anger.
She lowered her head, clenched her fist, and erupted on the verge of restraint, her spiritual energy surging within her.
"You're asking for it!!!"
