Holding the imperial edict in her hand, Su Miao couldn't believe her identity had changed.
She actually managed to own her own mansion...
Su Miao couldn't help but look up at Shen Changji.
He stood tall and elegant, dressed in a purple straight-collar court robe, with a matching gold spider-patterned belt around his waist, from which hung a vermilion jade raccoon.
She was like the high and mighty moon, with a cool and noble temperament, and an aura of majesty that was hard to ignore.
Shen Changji met Su Miao's gaze.
Su Miao's face flushed slightly, and she swallowed.
Not to mention that all the women in the capital liked the man with his deep and quiet demeanor, even she almost fell into his deep eyes at first glance.
"This is wonderful news! Yesterday, Ziji inherited the title, and today you are being conferred the title of County Princess. Two happy events in a row, we must hold a banquet to celebrate!" Old Madam Shen said with a beaming smile.
“Grandmother is right,” Su Miao replied obediently.
"Then shouldn't we have Miao invite Young Master Xie over? After all, this reward..." The second wife looked at Su Miao with a teasing gaze.
"No matter what, we must invite Young Master Xie. Miao'er, I'll leave this to you. Go and invite him."
Grandma Shen held Su Miao's hand and patted the back of her hand.
"good."
“Miao’er can live in her own residence. Although it’s not far away, she’s still moving out of the Duke’s mansion, so it should be furnished properly. After all, a place to live should naturally be comfortable,” said Old Madam Shen.
“Grandmother, I understand all of this.”
"Ziji, as the elder brother, you should naturally help look after her. When the time comes, help Miaoya see if there's anything that hasn't been settled yet, or if she's missing anything, and remember to make sure to provide it for her in time!"
"Grandmother, there's no need to go to so much trouble. I can manage on my own."
"More people, more eyes! Let Ziji take a look for you!"
"Alright, thank you very much, Grandmother."
"Alas, Grandma still felt a pang of reluctance in her heart!"
"It's not like we can't come back."
He coldly uttered a sentence.
“Yes, your grandmother has always kept your courtyard for you. You can come back to stay anytime, or come back to stay for four or five days every seven days. Your grandmother will be very happy to do so,” Grandma Shen added.
"Is that okay?" Su Miao asked, somewhat surprised.
"Of course! You can have anything you want!"
Hearing Grandma Shen's words, Su Miao felt as if her heart was filled, and her eyes reddened slightly.
"Good child, don't cry! This is a joyous occasion, and there will be a banquet in three days. Your move into the new mansion must be postponed until after the banquet."
"You should rest here for the next three days. When the time comes, I'll have Ziji accompany you, so you won't have to work so hard," Old Madam Shen said earnestly.
During this epidemic, although Su Miao did not complain about being tired, Old Mrs. Shen knew that in that situation, how could a young woman not be tired?
This child is just too well-behaved and sensible!
Su Miao ate dinner with Old Madam Shen, while Shen Changji went back to his study first because he had something to do.
As soon as Shen Changji took the seat of honor, Gu Ying recounted how Sun Yan had harassed Su Miao earlier that day.
Shen Changji frowned slightly. "You've made your move?"
"They've made their move."
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji's expression immediately turned displeased.
"It was just that Lady Su made a move against this Sun Yan!"
"I heard that scene was quite interesting! Lady Su directly crushed Young Master Sun's mouth with her foot! She didn't stop until Young Master Sun's mouth was swollen!"
After a long silence: "You've got some nerve."
"Yes, I also think Su Xiaoniang is very bold!" Lone Eagle chimed in.
The next second, when a long, cold gaze fell upon him, Lone Eagle quickly changed his words.
"This young master Sun is indeed incredibly audacious! He's merely a seventh-rank official, yet he dares to be so presumptuous!"
"Since you can't speak, then don't speak in the future."
Shen Changji raised his hand, took a sip of tea, and spoke softly.
"Understood!"
"It is the father's fault if the son is not taught properly," Shen Changji added.
"I will take care of it right away."
"Act according to the law, without hesitation."
"clear!"
Lone Eagle understands everything!
What law? His master just wants to use this as a pretext to vent his anger for Miss Su...
They also have to pretend to be maintaining order and harmony...
...
Not only was Su Miao incredulous, but even Liu Jiaojiao was quite unsettled upon hearing the news.
The man's hands encircled her waist, forcing her to look at the bronze mirror in front of her.
"What's there to be nervous about? She's just a county princess; she poses no threat to your position."
"I know……"
But she was still unhappy.
Even if it doesn't threaten her position, Su Miao is a county princess, and if someone really wants to do something to this woman, it won't be so simple.
Most importantly... Su Miao was personally appointed as a county princess by His Majesty!
The man looked at Liu Jiaojiao, who was lost in thought in the mirror, grabbed her neck with his large hand, turned her face, and forced her to meet his gaze.
"What you need to do right now, don't make me remind you again."
"I know, but I'm still a little worried."
Do you think everyone who knew about that incident back then was truly wiped out?
"You don't believe me?"
They were just a few ordinary civilians, and it was quite easy to deal with them.
"Of course not, how could I not believe you?"
Liu Jiaojiao sensed the man's anger, so she softened her voice, reached out and took his hand, guiding him toward her.
"The damned ones are all dead."
"As long as you obediently do your job well, you'll have whatever you want in the future."
