The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

It has to be said that Emperor Mingde's imperial edict came at the right time.

When the Marquis of Jian'an did not apply for the title, he decreed that Shi Chengyi be canonized as the crown prince.

The moment the old marquis took the imperial edict from his father-in-law, he fainted with excitement.

Shi Anxia had to ask someone to help his grandfather aside, and then asked Shi Yunqi to take the imperial edict and hand it to his eldest aunt Yu Sujun.

In the end, everyone knelt down to express their gratitude, shouting "Long live my emperor, long live, long live the emperor" with passion and enthusiasm.

The echo echoed through the cold night of clear snow and snow, as if the ice and snow in the entire capital had melted.

Eunuch Qi did not step into the Marquis's Mansion, but chose to announce the decree in front of the Marquis's Mansion, which was to make face for the Jian'an Marquis' Mansion.

Not only that, he also asked people to carry everything that the emperor had rewarded into the Marquis Mansion, which amounted to sixteen boxes.

Then he raised his voice and sang the reward list again.

Gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, deeds to farmland and houses, rare night pearls, and even vases from small countries and other decorations.

Box after box was carried into the Houde Hall and arranged neatly, which was very exciting.

The gift from the emperor was a divine grace, and it was also compensation for the disaster materials donated by the Marquis of Jian'an.

Emperor Mingde knew very well what the Marquis of Jian'an needed now.

As an emperor, he naturally knows how to repay this kind of disaster relief. The next time a similar situation occurs, someone will step forward to share the worries of the court regardless of gains and losses.

Seeing that everyone was immersed in daze and joy, Shi Anxia hurriedly stepped forward and invited Eunuch Qi into the room to have a cup of tea and warm up.

Eunuch Qi hurriedly said, "Our family appreciates Miss Shi's kindness. We are still anxious to go back and restore the emperor's life, so we won't stay any longer."

Shi Anxia nodded slightly and stretched out his hand towards Bei Hui.

Bei Hui understood and immediately handed over a money bag.

Shi Anxia took the money bag and handed it to Eunuch Qi with both hands, "It's so late, and it's windy and snowy. It's really hard for my father-in-law to go all the way. This is a little thought from our Marquis Mansion. I invite you all to have tea."

Eunuch Qi did not refuse, took the money bag, and led the people towards the palace.

The news that the Marquis of Jian'an gained power spread like wildfire in the capital.

Several clan elders couldn't help but nodded when they saw how well the two brothers and sisters Shi Anxia behaved in dealing with others.

We have to come to the eldest son’s banquet on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year! Just modifying the family tree is really a headache.

Everyone dispersed in twos and threes. Before leaving, he almost forgot about the unpleasantness that happened before, and only discussed the great favor of the emperor and the heir apparent.

Tang Chujun personally took his children and sent his sister-in-law Zheng Qiaoer to the gate.

Zheng Qiaoer stood beside the carriage and sighed, "Mr. Chu, I'm sorry for you. I was pregnant with Xinghe back then and didn't take care of you..."

If she had been more thoughtful at that time and sent a few more trustworthy midwives to guard Chu Jun, how could she have let people replace the child so easily.

How could Tang Chujun not understand his sister-in-law's difficulties.

His mother died young, and his step-wife was in charge of the Duke Protector's Palace. This is similar to the situation in the Hou Mansion.

At that time, my sister-in-law was busy dealing with the mistress of the house and almost failed to save her nephew Xinghe, so how could she find the energy to take care of other things?

In the final analysis, a person must stand firm on his own so that he will not be bullied. You always need to rely on others to live well. How much better can your life be, no matter how good it is?

Others are just the icing on the cake, only you can control your own destiny.

Tang Chujun only realized this truth recently, so she didn't blame anyone but herself for being too confused.

She held her eldest sister-in-law's hand and comforted her, "It's all over. Fortunately, my children are with me now. I have to thank my eldest sister-in-law for supporting the scene and borrowing so many people from the Protectorate's Palace. Otherwise, tonight's drama would not be complete." Xia'er can't sing so well."

Zheng Qiaoer smiled softly, "Chu Jun is joking. Qi'er and Xia'er are both good children. You can rely on them from now on. Two children are better than anything else. From now on, don't be afraid of trouble. What's the matter?" Just come to the Duke's Mansion and let him know. After all, we are a family."

Tang Chujun hurriedly said yes.

Zheng Qiaoer looked at Shi Yunqi again, her eyes full of love, "Qi'er, when you have time, you can go and play with your cousin Xinghe."

Shi Yunqi bowed deeply and said, "My nephew has written it down."

Finally, Zheng Qiaoer's eyes fell on Shi Anxia's face, but she felt that the little girl had majestic features, elegant appearance, and a kind of temperament that could only be found in a truly noble girl.

I couldn't help but feel envious, "Mr. Chu, I really envy you for having a lovely and capable daughter in Yuxue. I have been looking forward to a daughter for many years, but God never gave me one."

Tang Chujun smiled so brightly that his eyes sparkled, "God really cares for me!"

Only in this way can her biological son and daughter return to her in the end, even if they go through hardships.

Zheng Qiaoer warned, "Mr. Chu, so you have a better life than anyone else, do you understand?"

Tang Chujun knew that his sister-in-law was trying to point out that he had lived a depressed life before, so he hurriedly promised, "Now that my children are around, they will naturally live a good life. Don't worry, sister-in-law."

Shi Anxia smiled quietly until the carriage gradually disappeared from sight.

The next day happened to be New Year's Eve, and Yan Yan was laughing happily in Haitang Courtyard.

Shi Yunqi wrote the Spring Festival couplets by hand, writing quickly and well.

A group of maids surrounded him, whispering.

"Young master, the way you write is so beautiful."

"Why didn't I realize before that the young master and the eldest lady look so similar!"

"Children born from the same father and mother are naturally alike."

"Hehe, Master Qi is so kind. But I like the eldest lady better. Wow, she is so smart. She remembered the cutting method after just reading it once."

Shi Anxia rarely had such leisurely time. She didn't need to plan or calculate. She was just like an ordinary fourteen-year-old girl, learning to cut window grilles from her grandmothers.

She has a photographic memory and can cut out the pattern of window grilles after seeing them once.

The grandma who taught me how to cut the window grilles was so angry, "I won't teach you anymore! The eldest lady will know it as soon as she sees it, and the old slave didn't say anything and she finished cutting it."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Nan Yan said, "Mother Zhao, with your attitude of not allowing others to be smart, you can only teach me! I promise you won't be able to learn a single style in three days!"

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Shi Anxia cut a lot of window grilles, and there were all kinds of them. When I finished cutting, I remembered that today was the day when Mrs. Shi set out.

She thought for a while, then took her brother with her and asked Tang Chujun, "Is mother going to see grandma off?"

Tang Chujun thought for a while, "Go ahead."

Shi Anxia asked again, "Does mother sincerely want to see her off?"

Of course that's not true! Tang Chujun said, "In terms of etiquette, if I don't see you off, I will be accused of being unfilial. My bad reputation will hinder your future marriage, and it will also be a stain on my son's career."

Shi Anxia laughed wantonly, "Fame is never given by others, but earned by oneself. Mother does not need to care about those false reputations. From now on, mother only needs to do what she wants to do."

She raised her head towards Shi Yunqi, "Brother, are you right?"

Shi Yunqi also laughed, "Everything my sister says is right."

Tang Chujun once again felt the sweetness of being pampered. Even when she was a legitimate daughter in the Protector's Mansion, she was not as happy as she is now.

This happiness made her think of Yu Sujun.

It’s time for the hot potato of the Hou Mansion to change hands...
