Jian Ning wanted to ask Min if the Master Feng she was talking about was Feng Qingzi. If it was Feng Qingzi, then Xiao Ning was most likely frightened out of her body when he used her to make the elixir.
Feng Qingzi was no longer in the world, so she could only ask Min, but Min closed her eyes. Prince Pingnan glanced at her with disgust, then waved his hand. Duan Hong went out and called in people from the Ministry of Justice to take her away.
"Your Highness!" Min opened her eyes and looked at Prince Pingnan with despair. "I have been with Your Highness since I was 20 years old. I have given birth to two daughters and a son for you. Do you really have no feelings for me at all? Can you really bear to watch me die?"
King Pingnan tilted his head back, not even willing to glance at her.
She laughed twice in despair, and before she died, she gritted her teeth and said, "It wasn't me who harmed them. If this world didn't distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate children, and women were born regardless of their social status, how could I be any worse than anyone else? Who wants to be born inferior to others? Who is born a demon? I was forced by this world! I was forced!"
Jane Ning didn’t know whether Min’s words before her death shocked others, but she was deeply shocked!
It is undeniable that Min's words make sense, but no matter where in time and space you are, there are rules for survival. As long as you don't harm others and don't covet ill-gotten gains, unexpected disasters will naturally stay away from you.
Regardless of the era, killing someone means paying with one's life since ancient times.
As for absolute fairness and justice, absolute equality, Jane Ning could only laugh.
There has only been one Justice Bao in thousands of years!
Moreover, Min had brought this upon herself. She had no doubt that if Min and Yunniang were born in the same place she had returned to thousands of years later, both would be powerful women in the workplace and business world. However, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are class divisions. Harming others out of resentment would be punished no matter where in time and space.
Therefore, she had no sympathy for Min at all.
Prince Pingnan seemed to have aged a lot after this incident, with deep fatigue in his eyes. When Jian Ning met his gaze, she knew that he was also touched by Min's words.
"Dad, go back and have a good rest. Don't think about these things anymore. Tomorrow I will bring Jiajia, Yaoyao and the others to visit Dad and Mom."
"Well, it seems that I am really old. If I could go back a few years, she would have died in my hands."
After Prince Pingnan led Duan Hong, Duan Yu and the palace soldiers away, Jian Ning and Huo Jincheng and his daughter also rode on Qiu Ge and turned around.
The night was dark, Ding Youtian was studying in the east room. He hadn't had much time to read during this period because he was looking for Ah Man. Huo Jincheng and Ma Fuquan were playing chess and chatting about their male topics in the small flower hall.
Jane Ning made fried dumplings for them as a midnight snack. After they finished eating and cleared away the dishes, she sat on the porch outside. The night breeze brought a faint fragrance of flowers. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Being in such a quiet night in the quaint little house, she felt extremely peaceful and harmonious in her heart.
Now she has everything she needs: family, love, and friendship. God has been so good to her in this life. She looked up at the cool night sky, her lips slightly curved.
There was a noise in the flower hall, and Ma Fuquan and Huo Jincheng stood up and walked out. Huo Jincheng glanced at Ma Fuquan who was sitting next to Jian Ning, and said that it was getting late and he should go to bed early, and then left.
"What were you thinking about sitting here alone just now?" Ma Fuquan asked Jian Ning after he left.
"I've been thinking, I have everything in this life, I like my current life, it makes me feel at ease. What about you, Captain Wu, if you could choose now, to stay or go back, what would you choose?"
"Why think about the impossible?" Ma Fuquan said it was impossible, but he couldn't help but think about it in his heart. After experiencing such a bizarre thing as traveling through time and living a new life, what else is impossible in life?
"You've stumped me. This is indeed a headache." He looked up at the night sky. Now he has adapted to the life here. Although a corner of his heart still holds everything from the past, if he really has the chance to go back, he will not be able to leave his wife and children here.
"Tell me, is it really possible for us to go back there?" After a moment, he looked back at Jian Ning, "Why do you think it's possible?"
Jane Ning hesitated whether to tell him that his life in that world had not ended yet, and that he might one day travel back. But if she told him, and he died there again, it would only cause him more trouble. After some thought, she decided not to tell him.
"I just said that casually, just thinking about it."
"Hey, I thought you'd received some kind of tip." He chuckled and looked towards the west room where they lived. "Your yard is nice. Old Huo and I went to the base they built a few days ago to take a look. The craftsmen are already researching and developing more convenient cables. Old Huo said I'll get a share of the profits. When the money comes in, I'm also considering buying a small house like yours in the capital and bringing them all over to enjoy a good life there."
"It's okay not to buy it for now. We won't live here long-term, and we'll have to go back to the countryside to do our business. This house is for Dabao to study in Beijing. We can let Xiaomi live here with him. I want Laoliu and his wife to expand their business to Beijing. That would be good for their children, too. What do you think?"
"Of course. Guizhi's eldest brother and his wife will be so happy to know this. If Xiaomi lives with Dabao, I will use the money to set up an escort agency here and let Guizhi's second brother take charge of the affairs here. It won't be too late to buy a house after making money. In the future, when we are old, we can retire in the capital or the countryside and live wherever we want. How wonderful is that, right?"
Jian Ning chuckled twice, "You've even considered the issue of retirement. You're really thinking ahead."
"How can I not plan for it? I think Xiaomi is a good student. Xiaomai is determined to become a general, and he has good physical fitness. I thought about it on the way here. I originally planned to let him study until he was eighteen, but the boy can't concentrate on studying. Why don't you ask your father, the prince, one day to send him to the military camp?"
"Okay, I'll take Xiaomai to the palace tomorrow and let my father decide which military camp is best for him. But are you and Sister Tian willing to send him off to suffer in a military camp at such a young age?"
"She's not a girl, so why should a boy be afraid of hardship? He won't be afraid of hardship if it's something he enjoys. If he can't handle hardship, let him go back to school."
The next day, when Ma Fuquan told Ma Xiaomai about it, he jumped for joy. A'man also made a fuss and refused to go because Erniu and Sanniu were not going to the Taifu Mansion to study today. Jian Ning packed up and took the three of them and Ma Xiaomai to the Pingnan Palace.
Arriving at the palace, Ah Man took the lead in paying respects to the Prince of Pingnan and his wife. "Man'er greets grandpa and grandma. I wish you a long life!"
Erniu and Sanniu followed suit. They both turned sideways and bowed to them simultaneously, calling "grandfather" and "grandmother" in their baby voices. The princess was so happy that she hugged the three of them.
"Are you Qingdong's granddaughter?" She asked, hugging Erniu and Sanniu with one hand and A'man with the other, touching the small silk flower on her head.
