When Liu heard that Wu'an Hou had agreed, she was happy and said some nice words to make Wu'an Hou feel better.
At night, Marquis Wu'an naturally stayed in Huarui Hall.
Xia Tian temporarily put Princess Yunying behind her and concentrated on painting in her study.
Ten days later, Chen Nian also came back. The scroll for the Longevity Festival that Xia Tian had prepared was also completed. After a final check, it was packed in a box and stored in the space.
After Shen Nian came back, Wu'an Hou found a good day, reopened the ancestral hall, and registered Xia Tian in the genealogy of their Shen family.
Chen Nian didn't know what had happened during this period, and why his father opened the ancestral hall to enter Xia Tian in the family tree as soon as he came back, but he was smart not to ask.
This was what he had always wanted to do. No matter what the reason was, as long as Xia Tian was included in the Shen family's genealogy, she would officially become his wife, and no one could interfere with her identity anymore.
After the family tree was finished, Shen Nian found an opportunity to ask Mu Chen what happened.
Muchen was also confused and didn't know why the Marquis did that.
Later, it was Xia Tian who talked about her conversation with Liu, and when she connected it to the fact that Princess Yunying was about to return, Shen Nian finally understood.
This must be because Liu was afraid that he would be involved with Princess Yunying again and threaten Chen Ke's position, so she gave this idea to Marquis Wu'an.
But it was exactly what he wanted.
Once I understood what was going on, I stopped caring about it.
Xia Tian also took the opportunity to ask Shen Nian about Princess Yunying.
Shen Nian did not hide anything, and it was the same as what Hu Mengyao said.
"Then if Princess Yunying causes trouble for me, can I resist?"
"You are the wife of the Crown Prince of my Wu'an Marquisate, and your status is comparable. You don't have to be afraid of her."
"If I displease Princess Yunying, will that also offend Princess Ruihua?"
"It's okay to offend. My Wu'an Marquis Mansion is not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone."
After asking clearly, Xia Tian felt relieved.
The two talked for a while, and Chen Nian picked out what he could say about the past ten days when he was away, and Xia Tian also took out the painting and showed it to Chen Nian.
Seeing this six-foot-long scroll, Shen Nian couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.
Not to mention how realistic the painting is, the idea behind it is enough to make the emperor happy.
Although the emperor is young, he has been diligent and caring for his people like his own children since he came to power.
The entire Dagan Dynasty was prosperous, with strong military and horses, which made other neighboring countries dare not covet it.
Xia Tian also gave the painting a beautiful name "Fields of Hope".
"How did you come up with the idea of drawing this?" Shen Nian asked curiously.
Most women like flowers, birds, fish and insects, so it is rare for them to think of painting these subjects.
"I think the emperor has seen all kinds of rare treasures. You also said that the emperor is a wise ruler who loves his people like his own children. So this scene should also be something the emperor likes to see."
"That's right." Shen Nian nodded approvingly.
After looking at the painting, Xia Tian put it away again and would give it to Shen Nian when the time came.
There were still about ten days left before the Wanshou Festival, so Xia Tian simply took the two paintings he had finished to Manager Xiao.
Most of the paintings nowadays are custom-made by others, although the prices are not as high as those given by the second master of Wen Yibo's mansion.
Because the size and content of the paintings vary, the prices are also different.
But the average amount of silver earned for a painting was about two thousand taels of silver.
The custom paintings received from Shopkeeper Xiao have been scheduled until August, and this is based on the plan of two paintings per month.
This time, Xia Tian brought all the customized information and told Shopkeeper Xiao not to accept it for the time being and to wait until all the drawings were completed.
If something delays someone, you will have to pay compensation.
Time flies, and soon it is March 28th.
Today is Wanshou Festival, a day of celebration for the whole country.
I heard that a few days ago, delegations from other countries came to the capital to celebrate the Emperor's birthday.
On that day, the streets were crowded with people, and there were lights and decorations everywhere, making it even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
Everyone in the Wu'an Marquis's Mansion packed up early and went to the palace in a carriage.
The old lady is also going this time, and Liu and Chen Ke are also going.
After entering the palace, men and women were separated. The old lady took the lead for the female members, and followed the palace maids to the designated activity area to rest first.
The formal palace banquet usually starts around ten in the morning.
The old lady went to chat with a group of old ladies from various mansions.
Liu and the others also gathered with the ladies from other mansions to talk about their children.
Young ladies can also move around on their own.
Xia Tian sat next to Liu for a while, and from time to time someone looked at her, and the inquiring look made her feel uncomfortable.
He said something to Liu and took Ningxiang to find a small pavilion where there were not many people and sat down.
Not long after they sat down, Wen Jin, Lin Sayu and Hu Mengyao came over with their maids.
After they exchanged greetings, Hu Mengyao leaned in and asked, "Have you seen Princess Yunying?"
Xia Tian shook his head, "Not yet."
"Let me tell you, she was still so arrogant when she saw the three of us. If she knew your identity, she would definitely come looking for you. You'd better be careful." Hu Mengyao said in a low voice, but this time she didn't gloat.
"Okay, thank you for the reminder." Xia Tian also replied seriously.
She was not very clear about the specific procedures of the Wanshou Festival, so the three of them explained it to her.
Gradually, more and more people gathered around the small pavilion, and the young ladies gathered in groups of three or four to talk.
