Princess Lianhua nodded, pulled Princess Zhaoning, turned around and walked towards her residence.
Just as Shen Ziyan was about to follow, Liu Rumei gently tugged on her skirt.
Shen Ziyan turned her head and looked at Liu Rumei, who pointed to the side. Seeing her winking at him, Shen Ziyan also understood and turned around and walked to her room.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei also came up, followed by Liu Tie and Liu Ce, who guarded Shen Ziyan's door.
Entering the room, Shen Ziyan looked at them with a smile, "What are you two doing? Is it mysterious?"
"Senior Sister Ziyan, I am confused about something. Come and tell you." Chen Xiaobei got straight to the point and told Shen Ziyan what Bai Han told him in a very low voice.
Shen Ziyan looked at Chen Xiaobei doubtfully, "Chen Xiaobei, are you doubting him?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "I can't say doubt, but I think this matter is very strange, because he has never mentioned to me about clearing the Duobang line, and judging from the current situation, since you have retired to the world, , it seems that Jiang Daxia should no longer interfere with these matters."
Shen Ziyan thought for a while and nodded slightly, "What you said makes sense."
"Okay then, I'll keep an eye on it for you."
After talking about business, Chen Xiaobei and Liu Rumei found an excuse and left quickly.
When Chen Xiaobei returned to his Prince Consort's Mansion, he saw Liu Kai waiting there. When he saw him coming, he came forward and saluted, "Uncle, Miss, there is a letter from Hetou Village!"
As he spoke, he handed over a small roll of paper.
Liu Rumei took it without even looking at it, and handed it directly to Chen Xiaobei. After all, it was a matter for Hetou Village, so of course she had to let Chen Xiaobei know first.
Chen Xiaobei opened the brief sentences above, which were Cui Hongyu asking himself whether he would return to Hetou Village during the New Year.
Seeing this, Chen Xiaobei thought for a moment, and then he realized that he had been so busy these days that he had forgotten about this matter. According to the custom of the Dacang Kingdom, there is also a celebration of the New Year.
It is also the coldest season of the year, which is somewhat similar to my previous life.
Maybe there are too many people who have traveled through time and have established similar customs! ! ! "Manual Dog Head"
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xiaobei handed the note to Liu Rumei without speaking.
Liu Rumei was silent for a while after reading it. Then he turned to Liu Kai and said, "Butler, please go back first. I will send someone to find you when you need a reply!"
Liu Kai bowed and turned around to leave.
Returned to his house. Chen Xiaobei sat there, looking depressed.
Liu Rumei was considerate. She brought a bowl of tea and gently placed it in Chen Xiaobei's hand. Then she asked softly, "Husband, do you want to go back to Hetou Village?"
Chen Xiaobei's mind flashed back to every moment he had with Cui Hongyu. From when he first married into his own family to now staying alone in Hetou Village, he was a little happy and reluctant to live here. No matter how he said it, Cui Hongyu accompanied him through the most difficult period. In this day and age, you can’t forget your roots…
Thinking of this, he nodded slightly, "Rumei, you know that it is not easy for Hongyu to manage the affairs of a large family alone in Hetou Village. Besides, this New Year is also the most important time."
Liu Rumei nodded, he counted with his fingers and said, "In two days, the prince will be buried. When his funeral is over, can we go back? There are still more than ten days before the Chinese New Year. It's totally in time!"
Chen Xiaobei's nose felt a little sore after hearing this. Full of touching meaning.
"But, if that's the case, you can't stay here with your father-in-law Taishan."
Liu Rumei thought for a while and sighed slightly, "My father won't particularly care if my married daughter throws water away."
"As long as you make peace with the princess, she will let you go."
Chen Xiaobei was silent for a while when he heard this. In this era, the mentality of favoring boys over girls is still very serious.
Even before Liu Rumei came back, Liu Xiangnan was worried about her every day, but at this important time point, Liu Xiangnan was still a conservative person. Conservative means that a married daughter cannot return to herself in this era. My natal family celebrates the Chinese New Year, and I can only come back to visit my relatives after the Chinese New Year.
"If that's the case, I'll discuss it with the princess later and let's go back as soon as possible."
At this time in the palace.
After a few days of adjustment, Xiao An's mood eased a lot, and he seemed to have some energy.
After lunch that day, Xiao An regained his energy after taking a short nap. He said to Xiao Shunzi, "Xiao Shunzi, what's new outside? Tell me a few."
Xiao Shunzi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, everyone is talking about something outside now, that is, Lord Liu secretly transported his eldest son Liu Yuanwen back to his hometown and buried him without making a sound, even along the way. No one mourned, and most people didn’t know about it.”
After hearing this, Xiao An frowned and said, "Oh, Liu Xiangnan is so low-key, dealing with his son's funeral?"
Xiao Shunzi nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty, Mr. Liu Hou did not come to you to ask for a reward, nor did he go to Her Royal Highness the Princess to ask for a reward, so he quietly took the person back and buried him."
After hearing what Xiao Shunzi said, Xiao An was thoughtful. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and said to Xiao Shunzi, "Go and call Jingfeng for me. I have something to tell her."
Xiao Shunzi turned around and left, but with little effort, Xiao Jingfeng rushed over. After entering, he cupped his fists and saluted his father.
"Father, you are so anxious to call Jingfeng here. What are your orders?"
Xiao An raised his hand and said, "I asked you to come. There is something important. Your brother should be buried in two days."
"Father, please rest assured, I will do it in a smooth manner and let my brother leave in peace and peace of mind." Xiao Jingfeng bowed again.
Xiao An waved his hand, "No, I asked you to come here so that you don't make it too glamorous. Do you know how Liu Xiangnan dealt with Liu Yuanwen?"
Xiao Jingfeng shook his head, "Liu Xiangnan didn't go to me to ask for any reward. Maybe he has to wait until my brother is buried..."
Xiao An shook his head, "No, you are wrong. Liu Yuanwen has been secretly sent back to his hometown for burial. Liu Xiangnan did not announce the funeral secretly and just dealt with it quietly."
Xiao Jingfeng was shocked when she heard this. She looked at her father in disbelief, "This is unlikely. Liu Xiangnan is a first-grade marquis. We can also posthumously bury his son at the level of a fourth-grade official!"
"Well, you are right, but he didn't, so there is some discussion about this matter among the people. You know what I mean!"
Jamel Xiao thought for a moment, then clasped his fist at Xiao An, "Jingfeng understands what you mean. You want to keep a low profile on my brother, so that the people will not say that we are extravagant and wasteful, and you will praise Liu Xiangnan alone!"
