e sleds for the patients.The patients, hearing this, refused to be carried and insisted on walking if their legs weren't seriously injured, lightening the burden for everyone else.Li Lao Si gnawed on...Now that outsiders were gone, Madam Liu carefully questioned the palace gate incident. Finally, she scolded, "These people look down on others and think you are easy to bully now that your godfather and father are away!"

If the Northern Expeditionary Army hadn't left, give them ten thousand guts, they wouldn't dare to make a fuss.

Jia Yin naturally knew these things, so she smiled and advised, "Mother-in-law, don't worry about it. When you go back, please tell Second Uncle that I and the princess haven't suffered any losses. Instead, the deputy commander and several of the troublemaking soldiers were punished, and they are probably in danger of losing their heads."

And Imperial Uncle also said that he had recently neglected me and the Third Princess, and in the future, he would never allow anyone to bully us.

Lady Liu's heart raged with internal complaints, she really didn't trust the Emperor much.

There's been a lot of gossip going around lately, saying the emperor is senile and incompetent, obsessed with women and ignoring everything else.

Of course, you can't say that to little Jiayin.

So, she asked her grandmother to bring up the box full of fans.

This box of fans are all high-quality. Some have ivory handles, and others have bamboo. The fan surfaces are made of gauze, with bright colors and good ventilation. They are embroidered with various flowers and birds, making them pleasing to the eye in every way.

Jia Yin carefully picked up each fan, turning it over in her hands lovingly. She said with a pout, "Aunt-in-law, these fans are truly beautiful! I can't bear to give even one to the princess, what should we do!"

Lady Liu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed, replying, “Don’t be so stingy. Let's split this box with the princess first. When your mother writes back, we’ll have someone find another box for you!”

"Thank you, Madam! This fan is wonderful. Among my female companions, a gift like this would definitely make them scream with delight!" Jia Yin was completely unapologetic and forthright, which made Lady Liu even happier.

The two of them were eating fruit and chatting idly.

Mrs. Liu inquired about Jia Yin's food, clothing, and lodging in the palace before she felt at ease.

As it was getting late, Madam Liu was about to bid farewell and leave the palace.

Jia Yin was reluctant to let her go, so she kept her company for a while longer. Then, she instructed Shui Yun to prepare four sets of brocade and two sets of writing utensils.

This was all brought by Mr. Feng this morning, specially ordered by the Emperor from the Imperial Treasury as a gift to Jiayin and the Third Princess to dispel their anxieties.

Jia Yin also added four boxes of pastries from Yu Shan Fang, and asked Liu Fu Ren to take them all back.

Mrs. Liu wanted to decline, after all she came to visit her child, not to receive gifts. It would be taking advantage of the situation otherwise.

But Jia Yin insisted, persuading her, "Madam, these few bolts of tribute silk are elegant in color and suitable for making clothes for Zhi Min and Xiu Jie. The two sets of Four Treasures of the Study are also good things from the south, best to send them for their studies."

"As for those other boxes of pastries, they were made by the Imperial Kitchen. While they're not as delicious as mine, your aunt kept them to offer guests as well. When I get home, I'll personally bake you some butterfly cakes, the ones you love."

Mrs. Liu listened to her introduction, her heart softened like a pool of honey.

Such a caring little daughter, how could she not be her own flesh and blood!

Most importantly, coming home to be a daughter-in-law isn't feasible.

This is heartbreaking!

Lady Liu brought with her a pile of belongings, as well as a heart full of regrets, as she left the palace and returned home.

Li Lao'er was actually waiting here the whole time. Madam Liu didn't dare to dawdle, she kept talking from entering the palace until leaving, finally smiling and saying, "The county princess is smart and well-behaved, no matter where she is, she hasn't been mistreated. Her food, clothing, shelter, and everything else are comfortable and elegant."

And the palace maids and eunuchs of ZhiLan Palace were also close to and respectful towards the county princess. None of them dared to neglect her, so Lord Grandfather can rest assured.

"As for yesterday's events, the county princess didn't take them to heart at all, let alone be frightened."

Everyone let out a sigh of relief, and Li Laoer even bowed in thanks.

After Lady Liu returned to the inner courtyard, Old Master Liu asked, "Master, how do you plan to help the young lady vent her anger"

Li Laoer shook his head. "I haven't figured it out yet, I still need to inquire about the details, but no matter what, the county princess cannot be wronged for nothing."

Liu Zhiheng was just about to speak when Zheng He came over. "Master, Mu Xu just found me and asked me to deliver a letter to you."

Saying this, he presented a sealed envelope with both hands.

Li Lao'er raised an eyebrow, unfolded the letter and glanced at it a few times before bursting into laughter.

"This kid, he's quite capable, no wonder he was personally selected by the Marquis!"

Mr. Liu and Liu Zhiheng were both curious and listened attentively. Liu Zhiheng asked, "What's going on What do you mean by 'chosen by the Marquis'"

Li Laoer realized he had slipped up and quickly tried to backtrack, saying, "Mu Xu was saved by the Marquis in Jiangbei. He is decisive and ruthless, so the Marquis left him to serve as a bodyguard for the County Princess."

He had been helping Da Yong investigate the destruction of military rations these past few days. Hearing that the County Princess was wronged at the palace gate last night, he quickly looked into the reason and then traced the lead to several martial generals suspected of instigating soldiers.

Now they won't die even if they have to be skinned! I have to say, this method is a bit old-fashioned, but it's incredibly effective!"

Liu Ziheng didn't think too much, laughing and replying, "Haha, good boy, this speed is really fast, we didn't even get a chance to make a move."

As for Old Master Liu, he was a cunning man. He sensed that Mu Xu wasn't as simple as what Old Man Li had said.

But he didn't expose him, and smiled, "These generals are mostly like General Zhenbei, cowards. When it comes to fighting the barbarians, they all shrink back. But behind the scenes, they're all capable."

"They must be trying to gauge the Emperor's attitude towards the Marquis by using the County Princess as bait."

Li Lao'er and Liu Zhiheng followed with nods, both sneering, filled with disdain.

After chatting for a while, Li Lao Er said goodbye.

He didn't have anything urgent, but Mr. Wen and his family still didn't know the follow-up to the Gumen incident. If they heard about it, they would worry.

As expected, when he hurried back to the Earl's mansion, Mr. Wen and Jia Huan and Wan'er were all waiting.

It is heard that Jia Yin was unharmed and not frightened. Mu Xu also avenged Jia Yin, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, the whole family had unprecedented love and satisfaction for this young Mu Xu...

As dusk fell, in the Zilan Palace, Princess Three and Jia Yin were having dinner together.

The Third Princess hadn't eaten anything all day, so Jia Yin specially steamed her favorite shrimp dumplings and cooked red date millet porridge. She also prepared a few sour and sweet appetizing side dishes.

Actually, this is just ordinary home-cooked food. It's nowhere near as elaborate as a princess's meals.

But the third princess loved it. She ate seven or eight shrimp dumplings in one go and drank a bowl of porridge, then she felt much better.

Jia Yin also felt relieved, and she led several palace maids, Cai Yun among them, to chat about some fresh news.

As it happened, Cai Yun had just stepped out for a while this afternoon. Now, as she served the dishes to her mistress, she said, "Princess, I heard that the Emperor flew into a rage and punished several military officers. While I was walking down the corridor, I had to dodge several times because guards were dragging people out. It looks like the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment will be busy again!"

"Do they know what crimes they committed" The Third Princess was worried about her father's health anyway. Hearing that her father could still punish the criminals, she became interested.

Cai Yun shook her head and replied, "I don't know the specifics, but I overheard something that sounded like it had to do with the destroyed military rations."

The third princess was disappointed and when she was about to ask again, Shui Ling brought in two glasses of juice.

While the Third Princess was sipping her juice, Shui Ling quickly blinked twice with her master.

Jia Yin was doubtful, but she still nodded lightly...

Two updates today ~~s, but... she loved it! So her tears immediately changed their course, flowing from the corner of her mouth!Young Master Ye saw that although the plump girl's eyelashes were still wet, her eyes sparkl...
