Lan Ruobing had visited Wei Jin’an’s room to collect something once. She even took a look around. Fortunately, she and Su Binglan shared photogenic memories. The two remembered the layout and items of Luo Jin’an’s room.
Su Binglan had secretly hired some people to prepare the things her husband was familiar with and then put them aside. Luo Jin’an felt touched but did not know how to express his feelings.
He could only hug his wife tightly. After a while, he lowered his head and kissed her lips, instantly taking her breath away. Luo Jin’an was gentle at first and then became more passionate.
Su Binglan’s body went limp in his arms as she leaned into his embrace and
breathed heavily. Luo Jin’an then moved back and rubbed her back to calm her down.
“Bing, you’re all grown up now.”
Although Su Binglan had already celebrated her fifteenth birthday last month, she was an adult in ancient times. After all, most people did not live very long in that era.
Su Binglan blushed upon hearing her husband’s words. She softly said, “That’s why you did that to me just now.”
She involuntarily tugged at Luo Jin’an’s clothes as she spoke. On the other hand, he had never treated her like that before and was a little overwhelmed by his emotions. Even he could barely breathe just now.
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Luo Jin’an raised his brow. “What did I do to you just now?”
His breath brushing against Su Binglan’s ears caused her heart to race. She blushed even harder this time as she playfully punched his chest and said, “l don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
Luo Jin’an chucked and caressed her hair, saying, “You must be tired after cooking so much. Rest early tonight, okay?”
Su Binglan nodded with a smile. “All right.”
That night, the couple slept at the manor. In the future, this would be Duke Jin’an’s Public House and the couple’s home.
After a good night’s sleep, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an woke up early. The latter went to the courtyard to practice his swordsmanship and martial arts while Su Binglan went to make breakfast.
While practicing, Luo Jin’an felt like he had returned to his childhood. During childhood, he had developed a habit of practicing in the morning. However, he had to stop after moving to Su Teng Village to hide his identity.
When he picked up his sword again, it made him feel a sense of relief. He felt as if his entire body had relaxed.
After preparing breakfast, Su Binglan went to the courtyard to call her husband. When the couple quickly finished their food, Luo Jin’an visited the military camp while his wife went to deal with business matters.
Since Su Binglan would be taking over the Wei family’s shops, she went to check them out. A few were in the bustling downtown area, which was an excellent location.
She planned to use one as a barbecue shop that sold spicy crabs, crayfish, and even wine. However, she wondered what to do about the other shops. After tidying up some accounts, she brought Su Chun to the streets.
The duo walked around and then reached the theater’s entrance. They saw a notice on the door stating that there would be a performance of the General’s Order in the afternoon.
“The General’s Order play is my favorite. I’ve watched it twice.”
“It was so hard to get a ticket, but I finally got one today. I can’t wait to watch it later.’
“This play taught us much about Great General Jin’an. Still, I didn’t expect things to be so complicated.”
“Yeah, they wronged the great general. Fortunately, the new emperor has vindicated him.”
Su Binglan overheard the group’s discussion and smiled as she stood at the entrance. People had finally learned the truth of what happened to the Wei family, primarily because of this play.
Since many commoners could not read, she wrote the play to convey what had happened. That way, everyone could understand what had happened.
Now that Lan Ruozhu had vindicated the Wei family and their army, General’s Order quickly became everyone’s favorite play. Many even watched it several times.
Although Su Binglan had written and produced the play, she had yet to see how it affected the people. After some thought, she said, “Su Chun, buy us some tickets. We’ll watch the play later.” “Excuse me, Master? Are you sure?” Su Binglan nodded. “Of course.”
“Right away, Master!” Su Chun was ecstatic.
After buying the tickets, the duo visited the capital person. Su Binglan wore her princess token everywhere she went so no one would dare to stop her. She even went to meet the Han family members in prison.
The authorities had long convicted the Han family. However, some had yet to be executed. The commoners hated the previous emperor and Crown Prince for framing and harming loyal government officials.
Therefore, the commoners voted to sentence them to death. Although the Han family had been in prison for a while, none wanted to visit them. Even the guards cursed the former emperor and crown prince.
After all, everyone had watched the General’s Order and knew what had happened.
The Han family was shocked when they saw Su Binglan and Su Chun, wondering why the princess had come to see them. Although the family were prisoners, they had heard a thing or two about what had happened outside.
That was because the guards would brag about it to the family to provoke and mock them. The family knew that Su Binglan was the only princess in the Imperial Court now. They also heard that she was the “adopted sister” of the new emperor.
Although this princess came from the countryside, the people loved her. After all, she had built quite a reputation for herself.
Lan Ruozhu had even issued many decrees that benefited the country and the commoners. Many of those decrees were Su Binglan’s ideas.
The Han family heard about how much the people loved the new princess, especially because she had done many things for them. Han Yueting and the emperor felt a sense of familiarity when they heard about the new princess.
It was as if she was the same person as Lan Ruobing. After all, she had always cared for the commoners, just as Su Binglan did. Han Yueting thought he would never get the chance to meet the princess.
However, he was wrong. Su Binglan had come to the prison with Su Chun to see him and the emperor.
A woman said, “Your Highness, please release me! I’m innocent. I had nothing to do with the Han family.”
The sheriff looked at Su Binglan and explained, “Your Highness, she’s Han Mobei’s wife..
