Anyway, when Shen Yejun and her mother lived in the county town, they made a living by doing needlework.
Altering the size of their wedding dresses was not difficult for them.
Chi Yu thought his marriage would be simple, that he would just invite three or five tables.
Unexpectedly, Qin Mu had even prepared a wedding dress.
She paused for a moment, then realized what she meant and said:
"Alright, I'll give it a try later. But Amu, is Lord Fang really coming?"
"We're so far away, his round trip will take a lot of time."
"I also thought that when we return to the county town, we would treat everyone to a meal and then have him say a few words to everyone."
He disagreed, saying that although our parents are no longer here, you still have your brother and sister-in-law who are like parents to you.
Since that's the case, let's hold the wedding banquet here, and let this be the main venue. As my family, he naturally has to come.
Qin Mu paused here, made sure no one was around, then suddenly leaned down and whispered in Chi Yu's ear:
“Little Fish, before I came here, Lord Fang came looking for me. He told me his true identity.”
I joined the army at the age of thirteen, and after I made meritorious contributions at the age of sixteen or seventeen, I became one of his men.
He abandoned martial arts for literature, and I became his companion and bodyguard, staying by his side.
I had long suspected that his identity was not simple and that he was not just a member of the Marquis of Zhenguo's mansion, but I never expected that he was the eleventh prince of the current dynasty.
He is the son of the current Emperor and Empress, the legitimate son of the Empress, and his given name is Chu Yehong.
Chi Yu and her sister had both guessed that Magistrate Fang's identity was not simple, but they also thought that he might be a favored member of the Marquis's family.
Or rather, he is very likely the heir to the Marquis's mansion.
But to everyone's surprise, it was a prince, and judging from the tone of the conversation, he might even become the future crown prince, or, to put it more boldly, the next emperor.
Upon hearing Qin Mu's words, she couldn't help but gasp.
She didn't know why he would come here to be a minor county magistrate, but she was certain that Anping County was extremely fortunate to have him appointed to this post.
If he were emperor, this place he personally governed would certainly hold special significance for him.
In the future, it will be difficult for the people here to live a good life!
If we can make him remember the Chi family, wouldn't they also have a day when they rise to prominence?
No wonder County Magistrate Zheng and the Qiao family of Jinling would go to any lengths to assist him.
As Chi Yu was thinking this, Qin Mu took a deep breath, mustered his courage, and took her hand.
Then, enduring the burning sensation in her ears, she continued:
"He said he would stay here for three years. When he returns to the capital, I will have to go back with him as his companion and bodyguard."
Last year counts as one year, this year as one year, and I don't know exactly when I'll go back next year; the time is yet to be determined.
He remembers everything you offer.
In the second half of this year, once the potato yield from the official fields is in, he will write a letter to you and the Chi family to request credit.
His intention was to first bestow upon the Chi clan a plaque recognizing them as a righteous clan, and then exempt the Chi clan, including the existing people of Chijia'ao, from corvée labor and taxes for the next ten years.
In addition, your family, namely the descendants of your older brothers, for the current three generations, are exempt from corvée labor and taxes.
What do you think?
Chi Yu was quite happy to hear that three generations of his family had been exempted from corvée labor and taxes.
Moreover, the Chi family will also be exempt for the next ten years.
But after hearing Qin Mu ask, "What do you think?", she blinked and asked:
"That's it? What about me? What about me?"
She was the one who created the product, and her brother's family and clan members received rewards. But what about her, as the person who developed it? Didn't she receive anything?
