Chapter 624: Reborn Girl vs. Book-Traveling Girl 45
Although those things were not rare to Zheng Yunxi, watching these cultivators fighting for low-level spiritual herbs was like snatching martial arts secrets in the martial arts world.
When he returned to Kyoto again, Zheng Yunxi moved into the three-story house that the old marquis had later expanded.
The emperor also rewarded him with a four-story house and a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry.
The servants and the house were kept in perfect order.
During his travels, Zheng Yunxi had formally agreed to become a tribute to the court, which was the proper treatment for a tribute.
In addition, in order to thank her for the elixir she gave him last time, the emperor also granted her some property and arranged for someone to take care of it. The income from the property was stored in the rewarded house.
Over the years, the emperor has worked diligently and has lived up to the longevity elixir bestowed by heaven.
He vigorously developed agriculture and built water conservancy projects, which greatly increased grain production and enabled the people to have enough food and clothing.
At the same time, he resolutely curbed land annexation and promulgated a series of policies to limit the excessive annexation of land by powerful families and protect the land rights and interests of ordinary farmers.
He actively promoted commercial development, established markets in major cities, and encouraged merchants to engage in trade, which led to the prosperity of domestic business and the growing prosperity of the economy.
He attached great importance to education, established many academies, and cultivated a large number of talents, laying a solid foundation for the long-term development of the country.
On the way back to Beijing, I witnessed the vigorous changes in various places. I thought that the Heavenly Dao must be quite satisfied with the effect of the longevity pill given to the emperor.
In the training of heirs, the emperor chose the son born to the second prince and Zheng Yuejin.
This kid is not only politically savvy, but can also skillfully balance the relationship between brothers.
He had just the right sense of propriety in his interactions with his ministers, and he was compassionate towards the people, not treating human life as worthless.
Moreover, the emperor discovered that this grandson was somewhat treacherous and was very skilled in using the opponent's force to his advantage.
This method can not only be used to punish restless officials, but also to leverage the power of capable but lazy officials to work hard.
He is truly born to be an emperor.
When Zheng Yunxi knew all this, he felt that what he had said before was absolutely correct.
Zheng Yuejin's rebirth in this life may not really be for revenge, but rather she is here to help the second prince.
After learning that the emperor was focusing on training the grandson born to his daughter, Marquis Xuanping showed signs of being ready to make another move.
Fortunately, the medicine Zheng Yunxi gave him back then only made his health improve slightly. Once he overworked himself, his body would be unable to bear the burden.
As soon as he made some small moves, the new Marquis Xuanping and the old marquis' wife stepped forward to stop him.
After jumping a few times, he lay back on the bed.
The emperor saw that the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion was quite sensible and did not take it too seriously.
After all, the emperor's grandson was very capable and was not led astray by the old Marquis Xuanping's nonsense.
Otherwise, what Zheng Yunxi would see when he returned would probably be the tragic scene of the entire Xuanping Marquis family being wiped out.
Zheng Xingyao passed away last year. Mrs. Hou was in grief for a while, but she recovered after falling ill.
In fact, she had been mentally prepared. Seeing her daughter leave with less pain, she felt reluctant but no longer had the feeling of going crazy that she had when she first saw her daughter about to leave her in the Prince's Mansion.
It’s not that the feelings have faded, but that I have been mentally prepared for it.
Since I can't ignore my son and my parents' home for the sake of my daughter, I can only think it over, otherwise there is no point in living this life.
Zheng Yunxi's return filled the entire Xuanping Marquis Mansion with a joyful atmosphere.
The new Marquis Xuanping and his wife received her warmly and summoned all the younger generations in the mansion to meet Zheng Yunxi.
Zheng Yunxi prepared a gift for each junior.
The good-for-nothing old marquis looked on eagerly from the side, his eager expression as if the word "want" was clearly written on his face.
The Marquis and his mother watched from the side and shook their heads, feeling so embarrassed that they could not bear to watch.
As the daughter-in-law, the Marquis's wife pretended not to see this scene and turned around to feed the youngest child water.
Zheng Yunxi looked at the old marquis's appearance. If he hadn't seen that he was staggering when walking and looked so frail, he would have really wanted to say a few more words to him.
It's human nature to prepare gifts for the younger generation, but why should he, a grandfather, join in the fun?
If you really give him something in such an occasion, people will laugh their heads off.
Zheng Yunxi gave Xiaotao a wink, and Xiaotao understood. She walked to the old marquis's entourage inconspicuously and whispered a few words to him.
After hearing this, the attendant's face turned red and he quickly relayed the message to the old marquis.
The old marquis finally calmed down and sat aside to drink tea, but the desire in his eyes turned into expectation.
The family had a lively reunion dinner.
It was not until Zheng Yunxi sent the old marquis back to the front yard and took out the things he had prepared for him that the old marquis's restless heart finally calmed down.
Zheng Yunxi doesn't plan to leave in the short term.
She has been traveling for nearly twenty years and now wants to enjoy a comfortable life in Kyoto.
Xiaotao is just an ordinary person, and she suffered a lot following her outside.
After returning home, Zheng Yunxi announced to the public that he recognized Xiaotao as his sister.
The family had no objection to this, and the event was held in a grand manner. Xiaotao's name was also added to the Zheng family tree.
However, Xiaotao still lives with Zheng Yunxi, who provides her with two maids to take care of her daily life.
Time in Kyoto flew by like a white horse, and twenty years passed in a flash.
Although Prince Rong no longer causes trouble for the royal family, he always wants to run away, but now he always runs to Zheng Yunxi.
This action made the emperor suspicious, and he even felt that Prince Rong had other thoughts about Zheng Yunxi.
The emperor couldn't help but ask Prince Rong what he meant. Prince Rong glared at the emperor in shame and anger and said loudly, "Royal brother, don't use your dirty mind to speculate about Yunxi and me. The friendship between us is pure."
The emperor looked at Prince Rong speechlessly.
This little fool obviously likes the other person, but he was brainwashed by a few words and thought it was pure friendship.
Forget it, I don’t care anymore. It depends on what you can come up with.
As a result, Zheng Yunxi never married in her life, and Prince Rong maintained a lifelong friendship with her.
Although the emperor had been using good medicine to recuperate, after the effect of the longevity elixir wore off, he only lived for three more years before passing away.
The new emperor lived up to the expectations of the previous emperor. As soon as he came to power, he launched a series of policies that benefited the people and used both kindness and force to treat his subjects.
The transition of imperial power was smooth.
Zheng Yunxi had already moved into the house bestowed by the late emperor.
When the old marquis passed away, he and his wife tried to keep her, but seeing that she had made up her mind, they only told her to come back to the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion often and that her yard would always be kept for her.
