Baihu said that Kang Yueran would come back, but Chai Shijing never told this to anyone. Firstly, no one would believe him even if he told him; secondly, he himself didn't know when Kang Yueran would come back.
Lin Shu'er cried, "Shijing, you are almost thirty years old and have no children. Who will inherit the throne in the future? You always think about the country."
"So what if I have no children? I still have a nephew, and the dynasty of Dayong will still be ruled by the Chai family."
"H-How could you think that?"
Chai Shijing didn't want to talk any more. "This is the last time I'm going to say this. If you still force me, don't blame me for not caring about family ties."
He looked at Madam Lin and said, "My imperial decree has been issued. Madam Lin is not at home packing her luggage, but has come to the palace instead. Are you trying to disobey my order?"
Madam Lin knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "I dare not!"
"I think you are very daring. Since Madam Lin is not satisfied with my imperial edict, I will issue another one. The mansion where the Marquis of Dunning currently resides will be taken back and demoted to the Duke of Dunning's mansion. You must move out of the capital within five days."
Madam Lin was filled with regret, but Chai Shijing was furious, and pleading for mercy at this moment might backfire. "I thank your Majesty for your grace."
Lin Shuer screamed: "Mother! Why are you......"
Lin Qingyi screamed, "Cousin, how could you do this to Grandma?"
Old Madam Lin scolded: "Qingyi, the emperor has made the decision, why don't you thank him?" She was too greedy, and as a result, she not only lost the watermelon, but also didn't pick up any sesame seeds.
Lin Shu'er wanted to plead for the Dunning Marquisate, "Shijing, even if the Lin family makes you angry again, we are still a family. Kang Yueran is already dead, and the dead cannot be resurrected. Even if you are reluctant to let her go, she will not be able to come back to life. Shijing, you..."
"Whether Yue Ran is alive or dead, she is my only wife and queen in this life! You are courting death by trying to replace her. I have already shown mercy, so please don't be ungrateful."
Chai Shijing stood up, said, "Take care of yourselves!" and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Lin Qingyi rushed to Old Madam Lin and cried, "Grandma, my cousin..."
"Qingyi, come home with me and don't come to the palace again. Also, don't call the emperor your cousin anymore."
"Why? Grandma, I really love my cousin. Why does he only have Kang Yueran in his heart? Why is it that even after Kang Yueran died, he still only has her in his heart?"
Lin Shu'er helped Madam Lin up and said, "Mother, Shi Jing is just angry. When he calms down, I will ask him to restore the title of Marquis."
After failing to gain anything, Old Lady Lin felt completely exhausted. "No need. Leaving the capital may not be a bad thing."
"Mother......"
Madam Lin waved her hand, stopping Lin Shu'er's words. "Your Majesty, this anger won't subside so easily. Wait..."
After leaving Shou'an Palace, Chai Shijing went to Four Seasons Garden in disguise.
Wang Hai kowtowed and greeted Kang Yueran, then talked about Kang Yueran's business in Anzhou. "The tea trees in the tea garden have taken root. This year's tea production is huge. I built a tea roasting workshop, and several major tea merchants in the north have placed orders with us.
The business of the colored porcelain workshop is as good as before. Although the colored materials given by the girl's master are gone, the manager Yu Honghuo is brave enough to innovate and use several existing colored materials to make porcelains that are very beautiful.
Kangji Canal Transport's ten cargo ships are doing very well under Ma Shun's care..."
Since Chai Shijing became emperor, Kang Yueran's business has never been smooth.
"As long as everything is handled properly, the business profits will remain the same as before. Thirty percent will be sent to the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion for Yuanfeng; twenty percent will be kept for business turnover; and fifty percent will be sent to the Ministry of Revenue."
Soon after Chai Shijing ascended the throne, he conferred the title of Marquis of Cheng'en on Kang Yuanfeng. Now the two brothers are studying at the Imperial College.
He knocked on the door and said, "Your Majesty, Hu Dacheng and Hu Xiaocheng are here!"
"Come in!"
Hu Dacheng and Hu Xiaocheng followed Yili into the room and greeted Chai Shijing first.
Chai Shijing smiled faintly and said, "Have you really decided?"
Hu Xiaocheng replied, "Yes! My elder brother and I are both rough people. We have learned a lot in the past two years following Princess Yongtai in the southwest."
Hu Dacheng echoed, "Xiaocheng and I will stay in the southwest to guard the border. We are both willing to give full play to our strengths."
The loyalty of Dacheng and Xiaocheng was unquestionable. Chai Shijing said with a smile, "With you two in the southwest, I feel relieved. When will you set off?"
"Leave from the capital in three days."
"Wait a few more days. The Anzhou Maritime Customs is running well. I recently summoned Zhengchu back to the capital to take up his post in the Ministry of Personnel. I received news yesterday that Zhengchu is already on his way to the capital. You can meet him before you leave."
Cheng Jun and his brother were delighted. "Great! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Kang Yueran had completed the space's system mission and successfully returned to the modern era. But now she wanted to go back, and the space allowed her to go back, but she had to reach level V30.
Baihu slapped his head, feeling distressed and regretful. "It's all my fault. I was only thinking about saving my master and forgot to store everything in the Emperor of Dayong's warehouse into the space."
Kang Yueran sighed. What else could she say? "Okay, I still have some stuff in my space. If I sell them all, it should be about the same."
The space warehouse was empty except for a few newly harvested fruits. Kang Yueran uploaded several ancient tea trees and rosewood trees he found on Yueyang Mountain to the space mall one by one.
Then she went to the villa to search. In the study of the villa, there were her collection of inscriptions, calligraphy and paintings, as well as the three red corals that Lu Kai brought back. She uploaded them all to the mall.
