Epilogue to Chapter 792: Xiao Ling’s World (Final Chapter)
The turmoil in the capital soon subsided, and in order to celebrate the new emperor's ascension to the throne, the court issued a series of policies that benefit the people, and all the streets were filled with joy."Dad, Mom, quickly calculate how much you earned today?"
"That's a lot. I was worried that your sister wouldn't be able to come up with much dowry for her marriage. If this kind of business continues for a month, it will give your sister more confidence to stand up straight in her husband's family."
"It should be about the same as a month's business. The imperial decree is for the whole country to celebrate the Hundred Days! The most important thing is that this time, not only the farmers have reduced taxes, but also our merchants."
"So the Prince of Chuan is really powerful. He went overseas and brought back so much treasure for the court. The court is not short of money, and we, the people, live well."
"Lord Luo is not bad either. He has been practicing in the mountains and developed a set of physical training to improve health. He also teaches the public for free. I have been practicing for three to five days. Even though I am so busy today, my waist doesn't even hurt!"
"Is this true? If this is easy to practice, wouldn't I have to go to the clinic less often in the future?"
"That's right. From now on, our whole family can't be lazy."
"If my son were to tell me, we have such a good life now, thanks to the two princes who did not fight or compete, but were dedicated to serving the people, and the new emperor who was magnanimous, motivated and studious. To be honest, our late emperor died well."
"Don't say that carelessly. Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
"Mom, don't worry. It seems that there is a powerful nobleman next door who has committed a crime. He will never be released in this life. It doesn't matter if he hears it. Besides, I am not the only one who says this. The court probably tacitly agrees. Otherwise, why did they only ban weddings and funerals for seven days after the death of the late emperor?"
Living next door to this family were Si Hengnian and Xu Huixin. Because they were not allowed to go out or communicate with the soldiers on guard, the only channel for Si Hengnian to get news from the outside world came from his neighbors. When he heard them praising the former eldest prince and second prince, Si Hengnian's face twisted.
How is this possible? How could a prince who is obviously capable not want the throne? He even gave up the throne to a young boy without any reason! In order to build momentum for the young boy, he implemented a series of measures to benefit the people.
In any case, Si Hengnian couldn't figure out why the two did this. If they wanted to seize power completely, it would definitely be much simpler, easier and more legitimate to start from the moment the late emperor died than to plan slowly. The longer it dragged on, the more stable the throne of the young emperor would be, and the less support he would have from the court officials.
He was unwilling to believe that there were people who could have power but didn't want it, and would rather be restricted by others. What kind of idiot could make such a decision!
Do you think that if you treat the little emperor well now, he will treat them well when he grows up? Don't dream. No one who has ever sat on the throne is without suspicion.
The late emperor was a wise ruler before, but what happened later? Tsk, he waited to see what would happen to these people. How much better would they be than him in the end!
Perhaps Si Hengnian will never understand that, sitting in that position, although it seems that he controls the world, he is actually controlled by the world. No matter whether it is Song Luo or Shi Liuchuan, their power and reputation in their previous lives were much higher than this. Fortunately, the two of them possessed real cultivation, so they were able to escape from the predicament in the end.
If I come back to this life again, I'll be crazy to be bound again.
In terms of power and status, they are already princes second only to the emperor in this country. They can be free and unrestrained, and they don't have to be trapped on the throne like their younger brother, unable to leave the capital for the rest of his life. As for whether their younger brother will be afraid of them when he grows up, it doesn't matter. The world is so big, they can live well anywhere.
At least for now, the little prince has a very good character, and he has been brought up by them and the princesses, so he shouldn't be too bad in the future.
"You can rest easy. I still have to go back to the border." Feng Shao looked at everyone jealously. His mansion was almost completely occupied by these people. He couldn't understand why these people had to live in his house when they had their own prince's mansion, princess's mansion and manor.
The key point is that not only do they live here, but they also have to be attentive to my mother every day. Once I'm gone, will my mother still remember that she has such a son?
"If you're afraid of being lonely, why don't you just get married? Have a few more children, and I guarantee you won't have time to think about other things." Feng Shao looked at Song Lingling: "Then why don't you get married?"
"I have a bad temper and I'm afraid I'll beat my child to death if I have one in the future."
Zhou Yuqing was more direct: "I am not in good health and cannot have children."
Luo Wang drank his tea calmly: "If I have dark skin, I might give birth to a girl who won't be pretty."
Prince Chuan shrugged: "We have to continue to go overseas. What if he dies in the storm? Don't hurt him in vain."
As for the reasons of the third and fourth princesses, Feng Shao was even more speechless. He raised an eyebrow and said, "I have a cold uterus and I'm afraid the fetus will freeze to death."
"My hair is split, which is a physical defect."
Feng Shao opened his mouth, but finally gave up. He must be crazy to talk about this with these people.
Although the Jing Kingdom has now ceased its activities, the border must be defended. After much thought, Feng Shao is still the best person to be guarded, so after the celebration, he had to pack up and set off.
Before leaving, Feng Shao heard that Si Hengnian and Xu Huixin had secretly sent a message wanting to meet him. Without thinking, he refused because he felt that he had no connection with these two people, so why would he make this trip?
It wasn't that Si Hengnian and Xu Huixin suddenly came to their senses or something, but that they suddenly awakened their memories of their past lives the night before.
After knowing what kind of life they had lived in their previous lives, the two could not accept the current situation at all, especially Si Hengnian, who should have been the regent respected by everyone!
Why has everything changed in this life?
Madam Song, the eldest prince, the second prince, the third princess, the fourth princess, even Qi Jiejing, and the military strategist Zhou Yuqing who appeared out of nowhere, because of their changes and appearance, such a big change has happened in this life.
And these people were all helping Feng Shao and revolving around Feng Shao.
So they wanted to start with Feng Shao and see if they could change the current outcome through him.
But neither of them expected that Feng Shao didn't even want to see them!
The gap between his previous life and this life was right before his eyes. Gradually, Si Hengnian began to resent Xu Huixin, thinking that if it weren't for her, he would not have ended up like this.
And how could Xu Huixin not hate the man in front of her for seducing her in her boudoir? Otherwise, she would have married Feng Shao smoothly and would not have to suffer any hardship.
Soon, Song Xia learned the news that the two had become a couple of enemies, which was faster than she had estimated. Then she sneered and stopped paying attention to them. These two people were not worth her attention, as there were so many children at home!
And it's not just these few at home. One day when she woke up, she found a baby lying in the yard with Xiaoling's name embroidered on the cloth on its clothes.
When I asked the servants in the mansion, they all said that no one had brought it in. The housewife who was sweeping the house was also confused. She had just cleaned the house, so how could it suddenly appear? It was as if it had fallen from the sky.
Song Xia picked up the child, and the child smiled sweetly at her. Her heart softened, and she thought to herself that this child might really have fallen from the sky!
I'm done writing here. Thank you for your support, my dear friends! I'm so grateful!
The next book will have a different subject, but it will be published in a few days. Interested friends are welcome to continue to pay attention.
