And because of that, Princess Jing'an had temporarily replaced Mu Rousang in eating so much that oil flowed from her mouth and the meat on her cheeks swelled up.

After a day, Princess Jing'an took a sip of the scented tea and laughed: "Husband, no wonder you and little sister are so concerned about this old land. So this is how it is, even I want to move here from the capital."

Mu Jinzhi sipped on his chrysanthemum tea and smiled with satisfaction: "I've agreed. When I become old, I will resign and return home, and you and I will raise flowers and grasses. That's right, my sister knows how to raise chickens and pigs, and the pigs she raises are even fatter and more delicious than the meat normal people feed us.

Speaking up to here, he almost drooled, and called out: "Fu Kang!"

Zhang Fukang was the nephew of Wangcai Wife. Ever since he married his stepwife, he had one daughter and one son. His wife had another daughter in her womb.

"Young master, your servant has come."

Mu Jinzhi thought for a moment, then said: "This year, there are a lot of chickens fed at home, later you can tell cook to kill an old hen and cook some Clear Broth, and tonight we will eat dinner at home. The village chief, Second Uncle Qin's family, Master Zhu's family and Brother Ping An's family will all be invited to have a meal together."

Zhang Fukang remembered something and said: "Yes, yes, young master, last year's brewed Peach Blossom Wine s still had a jar buried under the Peach Blossom Tree. It was a letter from the young lady before their marriage, saying that next year's young master has come back, and it is for you to use as a guest."

Princess Jing'an was very envious of the Mu Jinzhi siblings. She thought about how her brothers had not treated her as they did in the past after marrying their sister-in-law.

Mu Jinzhi laughed heartily: "Since it is my orders, then take it out. I will have to have a good meal and drink in order to live up to my good intentions."

Just as Zhang Fukang was about to leave, he heard another question: "Is Granddad's body better now?"

He only said that he had nothing to look forward to, and his life was a comfortable one for the rest of his life. Now that the young lady had gotten married, he stopped trying to feed the chickens and sweep the courtyard, his memory was not as good as it was in the past years, and he would often forget things and people.

Just like when Mu Jinzhi entered the house, he asked which family's young master it was, or else he would wake up the next day and forget who the Princess Jing'an was.

"Wangfu-Tzu was busy with stewards in the capital, so he could not come over when he was free, so he called Shi Shu to persuade the old man."

Zhang Fukang sighed, but in the end he still said: "It's hard to leave his homeland, he has been guarding this countryside his entire life, and he has never been to any other place, it would be difficult for him to leave here and go to the capital."

In truth, how could Mu Jinzhi not know of it? It was just that the Wangfu-Tzu and his family would definitely follow them to the capital, and would naturally not leave the Granddad alone there.

"I hope that Shi Shu can move that old man. Without him in front of me, Shi Shu would probably feel uneasy even if he were to get married."

This was also why Mu Jinzhi had to bring Shi Shu back. No matter what, he had to bring the old man to the capital.

"When you have free time, you should try to persuade him. In the future, Wangfu-Tzu and Aunt Wang will accompany him back to his homeland."

Zhang Fukang hurriedly replied. He was also unwilling to part with Granddad and go to the north, but Mu Jinzhi's actions were not wrong.

In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed. Mu Jinzhi and Princess Jing'an took off their luxurious clothing and changed into simple clothes and shoes, then brought them to the Mu Family cemetery at the foot of the mountain.

Mu Jinzhi sighed and said: "Father and mother passed away early, and only my sister and I lived together. At that time, I made a heavy oath that I would take good care of my sister, and that she would marry as the young lady of the Shangguan family. Secondly, I would make a heavy promise in front of my parents' grave, and in the future, I would definitely work hard to bring glory to our family and make our parents smile."

In the past few days, Princess Jing'an had seen a lot of things. When she was alone, she would often look at the beautiful scenery in a daze, she could feel the affection between the two siblings in the small mountain village, whether it was people or things. At the same time, she could not see any of these things in the capital, but they could shock her heart at times.

"Husband, I will accompany you until you're old. After we go back, we will work hard to raise more children. Don't be afraid, your wife's food will collect a lot of taxes each year. We can raise seven or eight of them."

Mu Jinzhi looked down at her. At that moment, no matter how strong a man was, he could still twist his fingers and bend his fingers. Even though there was no romantic poem, he could feel the sincerity in Princess Jing'an's heart.

His ears were slightly hot, so he embarrassedly moved his face away. Seeing that the two of them had unknowingly arrived at the grave, he pointed to it and said: "Look, that is my Mu Clan's tomb. In the future, it will be the Mu Clan's tomb."

Princess Jing'an looked over and asked curiously: "How come there are three?"

Only then did Mu Jinzhi guiltily remember that he had leaked the location of Mu Feng E's grave. That undesirable big cousin of his had already died young, he indifferently said: "The one that was farther away was my big sister, she passed away a long time ago."

Not only did the Mu Jinzhi siblings not mention anything about Mu Feng E, even Mu Yiyang and Mu Fengchai rarely talked about it. Only Mulberry would often think of her beautiful daughter who was as beautiful as a flower, but was similarly as thin as a flower.

Mu Jinzhi brought Princess Jing'an to the grave, but did not know that a guest dressed in a blue silk gown with a blue sky jade pendant on his waist had arrived. The guest's face was filled with a feminine air, and was welcomed by Zhang Fukang.

"Eunuch Fan, long time no see!"

All these years, Fan Yingde had always followed Su Ruirui's instructions to take away the fruits of the Mu Family.

"Manager Zhang, long time no see. I'm here this time because Your Highness has heard that the Princess Jing'an has come."

Zhang Fukang had already been secretly reminded by Mu Jinzhi, he immediately invited Fan Yingde to sit inside, then ordered someone to serve him good tea. Only then did he accompany the people below and said: "Eunuch, please wait a moment, the princess and young master will go inside to pay respects."

Fan Yingde lowered his head and held the tea in his hand, his fingers gently stroking the edge of the teacup as the steam rising from the cup gradually moistened his not so young face. Counting him, he already had more than thirty years of experience witnessing the conflict between Su Ruirui and Mu Rousang with his own eyes.

After a long while, his faint voice came out from inside the room, only to hear him ask: "Manager Zhang, is the young lady alright?"

Zhang Fukang was stunned for a moment. Although he remembered some of the things his uncle had said last time, he had a guess, but he did not dare ask Fan Yingde straightforwardly, and quickly said with a smile: "I heard from my young master that my aunt is very well, but that the mansion does not have any benefits. My young master said before, once my aunt has moved out of the mansion, it would be fine."

Fan Yingde accompanied Su Ruirui from the palace to Xiangyang, and naturally understood the arrangement of personnel in the imperial court. He closed his eyes and thought about how he should complete the mission given by his own master, and after the previous time he went to the capital, he had returned even colder towards the people around him. Anyone could feel the brutality in his body, the feeling of wanting to tear someone into shreds.

"It's been several years since I've seen a lady. The first time I saw her, it was like seeing a pretty flower covered with a golden veil under the sun!"

Zhang Fukang was afraid that he would anger the powerful Fan Yingde, hence he immediately laughed: "Not only does our lady look good, he also has an extremely good temper. In the past, I heard from my lady that Eunuch Fan likes to eat stewed chicken, so I asked people to make one at noon."

He was afraid that Fan Yingde would say something that would make things difficult for himself, but Fan Yingde also felt bitter, and quickly replied: "Your young lady's skills are not something other people can compare to. Oh right, have you learned how to make rabbit meat?"

"Girls don't keep secrets, of course. They have taught the younger ones, but the taste is still a bit worse." Zhang Fukang naturally did not understand. When Mu Rousang initially made the soy rabbit meat, a lot of the seasonings were spatial in nature and the taste was even more beautiful than normal.

Fan Yingde sighed: "That's too difficult, my Duke's appetite has not been very good recently, so I personally went to ask for this job, and I thought that wood girl would come back!"

Zhang Fukang saw him call her a girl, and guessed even more fearfully than before: It's not that my aunt doesn't want to go back, but it's just that a girl who marries is hard to even think of returning to her home, not to mention being a sacrifice at home. The House of the Marquis of Loyalty isn't someone my aunt can make decisions for, furthermore, going back and forth would take a month, so even if my aunt had the heart, it would be extremely difficult for her to do so.

Fan Yingde heard what he wanted, and it was completely different from the worries he had when he came, so he could only do it, and said: "I think so, I heard that the Madame Loyal Marquis is used to being two-faced and two-faced, and I'm afraid that your young lady will suffer, but we, your highness, sent you to find your young master for some matters, and that involves your young lady."

Hearing that, Zhang Fukang became even more worried, but facing Fan Yingde, he did not dare say anything, and just sat with him for a while, before seeing Mu Jinzhi and Princess Jing'an enter together, their eyes turned red, it was obvious that they had been crying.

"Eunuch Fan, when did the spring wind bring you here?" Once Mu Jinzhi entered, he did not even need Zhang Fukang to report anything as he already opened his mouth.

"You are Fan Yingde?" The Princess Jing'an asked him curiously.

"Yes, this servant serves by the side of the Xiangyang King." Fan Yingde saw that she was no longer as relaxed as he was before, but instead treated it with caution.

"Seems like my Third Cousin knows that I'm here." Princess Jing'an nodded and asked: "Did my Third Cousin send you here?"

Fan Yingde explained his purpose of visit, saying, "That's right, our Royal Highness heard that the princess had returned to pay respects, but this is the Prince's vassal territory, so he can't personally come to welcome you. He wanted to ask if you have the time to visit the Xiangyang and see the local customs and traditions, and if you have any differences from the people of Shu Province."
