After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yang decided to discuss it with General Si and then got into the carriage!
The four of them faced each other, staring at each other in disbelief!
"Grandma, what do you think Uncle Huang meant?"
Ever since Xiao Yang took out the reply, the old lady has remained in this position, staring at the reply without moving!
General Si assumed she could sense the Emperor's displeasure from the letter, so he reached out and embraced the old lady.
"It's alright, even if you remain the Empress Dowager, I will always protect you!"
The old lady only came to her senses after hearing General Si's words: "No, my son agreed! I was just stunned for a moment! We don't need to worry about the rest. My eldest son will take care of it! He's a master at handling these things! Don't worry."
The old lady, contrary to her previous demeanor, reached out and hugged General Si back.
"My son agreed, so I'm no longer the Empress Dowager. We can finally live openly and honestly! Thank you for all these years!"
General Si: "It wasn't hard work. I did it willingly, and I don't blame you. Fortunately, everything turned out well!"
The old lady nestled sweetly in General Si's arms!
Xiao Yang...
Song Yan'er...
You're at least sixty years old. I know you've been apart for so many years and couldn't help yourself for a moment, but could you please be mindful of the impact?
Your own grandson and granddaughter-in-law are still in the carriage! How can you be so oblivious to everyone else?!
Xiao Yang and Song Yan'er exchanged a glance: Okay, let's go down! It'll save us from being third wheels!
Xiao Yang exchanged horses with the driver and pulled Song Yan'er onto Black Wind King's back!
The two rode together on a horse, bathed in sunlight and surrounded by beautiful scenery, a scene as beautiful as a painting!
After a month-long journey, we're finally about to enter the capital!
Several people were so sick of riding in the carriage that they almost threw up! It had really taken too long!
This was the first time Song Yan'er had ever ridden in a carriage for so long since she came into this world; her bones felt like they were going to fall apart! Fortunately, the spiritual spring water was keeping them going, so apart from being a little irritable from the carriage ride, everyone's bodies could still handle it!
Because every night, Song Yan'er would put the three sleeping children in her space! So the three children were exceptionally excited! They didn't feel uncomfortable at all!
"Have we arrived? Really?!"
Looking at the city gate in front of her, Xiao Mingyu exclaimed, "Mom, this gate is so beautiful! It's so much prettier than our previous one! I love it here!"
Song Yan'er...
Is it a bit too hasty of you to like this place just because the city gate is pretty?
Before they even reached the city gate, they were surrounded by a squad of imperial guards!
"General Si, I heard that the Empress Dowager is ill, so I have been waiting here!"
Upon hearing the Imperial Guards' words, Song Yan'er immediately carried the three little ones to Song Dahai and his wife's carriage, and then got into the old lady's carriage!
He took out a pill from his spatial storage: "Now that we've arrived in the capital, take this pill first. The Emperor is preparing you for illness and death, so this pill will make you appear as if you are terminally ill and beyond cure!"
Upon hearing Song Yan'er's words, the old lady immediately stuffed the pills into her mouth and swallowed them haphazardly!
The old lady belatedly asked Song Yan'er, "Won't I feel terrible? I don't want to suffer!"
Song Yan'er said with a playful look, "Grandma, isn't it too late for you to ask now? It's already swallowed!"
The old lady exclaimed, "Damn it, I was careless for a moment!"
Song Yan'er...
"Now that we're in the capital, be mindful of your words and actions! Don't worry, is there anything wrong with the medicine I made for you? It just makes you look terminally ill, but you won't feel anything. Eat and drink as usual, and you'll have two more days of feigned death!"
The old lady immediately laughed: "I knew my granddaughter-in-law would treat me well! Don't worry, I've got everything ready!"
Once inside the city gate, the old lady and Song Yan'er split up into two groups!
The old lady was escorted into the palace by the Imperial Guards, while Song Yan'er's family was going to the house that Bai Zihua had bought for her!
Yes, Xiao Yang and Song Yan'er did not plan to move into the General's Mansion. Firstly, it would be inconvenient to bring Song Dahai and his wife along. Secondly, Song Yan'er did not want to spend time with unfamiliar people. She could tolerate people who were good to Xiao Yang, but since they were all unkind to him, Song Yan'er was unwilling to put up with them at all!
Song Yan'er was afraid that if she wasn't careful, those people she hated would draw blood!
Third, and most importantly, Xiao Yang did not want to live with his mother!
The family finally arrived in front of a house!
The house was about the same size as the city lord's mansion in Dongquan City. Because it was located in the capital, where land was extremely valuable, it cost Song Yan'er a lot of money!
Just as the family stepped through the door, Bai Zihua and his family of three arrived!
"Yan'er, I've missed you so much! You have no idea what kind of life I've been living. If I had known it was like this, I would never have married Bai Zihua!"
Shen Meng couldn't help but complain as soon as she saw Song Yan'er!
Song Yan'er was puzzled: Shen Meng should be living a very good life right now! After all, she owns half of Zui Hongyan, and just being the boss of Zui Hongyan is enough for Shen Meng to rule the world at home! How could she not be living a good life!
Bai Zihua: "Wife, my cousin-in-law has traveled a long way and must be very tired. Can you wait until she has rested before you talk to her about this?"
Bai Zihua looked at Song Yan'er with a helpless expression: "Sister-in-law, Shen Meng is just like that, so don't mind her!"
Chen Meng slapped her forehead and said, "What a terrible memory I have! I forgot you just came by! No rush, we'll have plenty of time to chat later. Let me help you pack your luggage first!"
Song Yan'er and Xiao Yang weren't bothered by Shen Meng's complaints about life the moment they met; they were more concerned about Bai Zihua's transformation!
He used to be just like Yuuji, always making a lot of noise and never taking things seriously, but now he's a completely different person!
He is refined and cultured, like a learned young gentleman!
What has happened over the years to turn people into this?
The two exchanged a glance: Let's ask when we have time, let's get ready first!
Because Bai Zihua often sent people to disturb them after buying the house, the whole house was very clean. They only needed to tidy up their own things!
"I originally wanted to provide you with all the maids and servants, but Bai Zihua said that you should choose the servants yourself. I thought about it and realized that made sense. Only you can choose the ones that suit you best, so I didn't buy them for you!"
Shen Meng followed Song Yan'er to her room to help her pack. She chattered incessantly the whole way, driving Song Yan'er crazy! But Bai Zihua was right; the servants would definitely have to buy everything themselves!
After all, if someone manages to slip in through the cracks, I'd be devastated!
"I didn't expect Bai Zihua to have grown so much in the past few years. He even thought of something like this!"
If it were the old Bai Zihua, he probably would have thought the same as Shen Meng and would have provided everything!
They're starting to get a bit cunning these days!
It’s really not easy!
