On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when it should have been a time of joy and excitement, there were bursts of wailing coming from several households.
A group of young men were beaten by their elders and cried out in regret.
Mu Huang reprimanded several families for not educating their children properly and punished each of them by giving them three levels of deduction.
As for the main culprit Zhao Fei, he directly ruined the title of marquis that his family had just obtained.
The whole family was demoted to commoners.
"Your Majesty is truly magnanimous! I heard that the young master of the Zhao family brazenly threatened to execute your entire family!"
"In that case, that's indeed merciful. To dare to say such words to His Majesty is no different from treason!"
"That's right! Tsk tsk! I didn't expect there would be such a big melon on the first day of the new year!"
"Don't be so gloating! I heard that this matter seemed to be exposed by Miss Xin?"
"That's right! You don't know how handsome Miss Xin was back then! In just a few swishes, those people were taken down!"
"Wasn't it the guards who took it?"
"Oh, that's not important! It was Miss Xin's order anyway! What's the difference between that and Miss Xin doing it herself?!"
"That's exactly what makes people worry!"
"What are you worried about?"
"Alas, you forgot that Miss Xin will marry the Third Master Shen in the future. The old lady of the Shen family and the second wife of the Shen family are both from the Zhao family!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was discussing heatedly fell silent.
Then, there were sighs.
Everyone knows that Mr. Shen San will not live long, and Miss Xin will be a widow in the future.
She doesn’t have her husband’s protection, and the two elders above her have a grudge against her. How is she going to live in the future?
Tieluo listened to his men's discussion and his expression looked a little unhappy.
But he didn't think that Xin Guoguo's previous actions were wrong.
As descendants of military generals, protecting the people is a belief ingrained in our bones.
He is just worried now, what should he do if Guoguo is bullied in the future and he can't find out immediately?
Just like this time, he didn’t find out until the afternoon!
There is a difference of several hours!
Not to mention several hours, on the battlefield, a lot of things can happen even in a moment.
He was worried that he wouldn't be able to protect Guoguo in time.
Even if I can get justice for her in the future, the damage has already been done!
Tielu thought for a long time and finally decided to personally select a few trustworthy masters and send them to Guoguo.
Xin Guoguo was not aware of the railway's plans.
After the New Year, she never went out again.
Apart from the children from Xiazhuang who often came to visit her, she had basically no contact with outsiders.
The days passed uneventfully until April.
Xin Guoguo didn't plan to have a big celebration for her fourteenth birthday, and there was no need to do so.
People at that time had a saying that there was no need to hold birthday parties for children, as this would remind the King of Hell to pay attention to their age!
However, Xin Guoguo still received quite a few gifts that day.
Of course, it is in the name of the recognition ceremony.
From that day on, she was the daughter of Princess Rong'an in the royal family tree.
After attending the family recognition banquet, Emperor Mu and the Queen left.
Xin Guoguo also officially moved into the princess's mansion, waiting for the wedding date next month.
"Miss……"
Qing Ning was standing outside the door holding a box in her hand, looking conflicted, not knowing whether she should come in.
Xin Guoguo looked at her puzzledly: "What?"
Qing Ning looked at the wooden box in her hand.
After a while, she gritted her teeth and replied, "Miss, this is a gift personally given to me by the wife of Duke Qing."
This "personally" is very meaningful.
The gifts from the Duke of Qing's Mansion had already been collected by the housekeeper of the Princess's Mansion and sent to her private vault.
This gift, which was specially given to Qing Ning personally, was probably sent by Chen Yunxi.
However, even unmarried men and women cannot transfer items privately, so it was handed over by the Duke's wife, which made Qing Ning so embarrassed.
Xin Guoguo smiled and said, "It's okay. Bring it in. Let me take a look first. You can put it away carefully later and I'll wear it later."
Qing Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief and stepped into the room.
Inside the box was a fiery red hairpin.
It seems that there are no special patterns carved on it, but every detail is exquisite.
Xin Guoguo took one look and fell in love with it: "This red color is perfect for the wedding day."
Qing Ning looked at the hairpin and forgot her hesitation for a moment, her face full of joy:
"It seems that the future son-in-law has good taste!"
Xin Guoguo smiled faintly and said nothing.
*
After living in the princess's mansion for only half a month, the day of her wedding arrived.
Princess Rong'an reluctantly held her hand and said, "If you suffer any injustice in the future, don't bear it by yourself. Remember, you have someone to rely on now."
"Sister, you must come back to see me often!" Little Xia Zhuang held his sister's other hand tightly, with two tears in his big eyes that were about to fall.
Prince Consort Xia looked at her and said, "If you are bullied, come back. Your father and mother will take care of it for you!"
Xin Guoguo asked the people in the illusion to kowtow to the two of them before saying, "Don't worry, Father and Mother. I will take good care of myself."
The sedan chair was lifted up, and the groom rode on a big chestnut horse, trying his best to endure the itch in his throat.
For some reason, he felt particularly uncomfortable in his throat early this morning, and even his head was a little dizzy.
Obviously, he was in good condition yesterday.
Chen Yunxi felt secretly bitter in his heart.
These days, he has been taking good care of his health so that he can give her a perfect wedding on this day.
