The regent died and something happened in Xiling. Shen Xingwan and Fu Jingchao didn't stay long at the border and quickly returned to Yannan.
It was a sunny day when they returned. Shen Xingwan rode a white horse and walked side by side with Fu Jingchao. There were many people watching on the roadside.
Fu Jingchao sent Shen Xingwan to the door of Shen's house. Shen Mochen and Shen Qingran led everyone in the Shen family to wait at the gate.
"Back." Shen Mochen asked in a gentle tone.
Shen Xingwan dismounted and said brightly, "I'm finally home."
Shen Qingran immediately came over and held her hand, "You scared me to death."
The other sisters of the Shen family also gathered around and expressed their concern for her.
Fu Jingchao was completely forgotten and stood aside. Shen Mochen chuckled and said, "Thank you King Luo for sending Xingwan back. The palace must be busy with a lot of things, so you will be drinking soon."
Fu Jingchao had no intention of staying at first, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Xingwan, I'll go back first."
Shen Xingwan took the time to turn around and waved to him, "Go back."
Fu Jingchao took the people away, and Shen Xingwan was surrounded by people who entered the door and went straight to the backyard, where Mrs. Shen was waiting for her.
"I've met the old lady." Shen Xingwan knelt down and saluted.
The old lady helped her up with her own hands and said with a smile, "I have been out for a while, and I feel much calmer again."
Shen Xingwan now has an air of ease and ease, and he feels more and more like a person in a superior position.
"I experienced a lot in Xiling this time." Shen Xingwan said with emotion.
Shen Xingwan chatted with the old lady for a while, briefly talking about Xiling, and then went back to the room to wash up. There was a family dinner in the evening.
Her yard was kept very clean, just as it was before she left, and there were many more flowers in the yard.
Her eldest maids, Chanyi, Dongqing and Midnight with their servants greeted her at the door.
"Welcome back, Miss." the servants said in unison.
Shen Xingwan said generously, "You have worked hard during this period, and each of you will be rewarded with one month's salary."
The smiles on the servants' faces became more and more sincere.
"Miss, the hot water is ready. You can go take a bath first." Lixia stepped forward to support her.
Shen Xingwan went back to the room and took a comfortable hot shower. Chanyi was waiting in the room to check her pulse.
"The qi and blood are a little weak, so there is no need to take medicine, just take supplements."
Dongqing brought her food, and Shen Xingwan ate two bowls of rice, lying on the rocking chair, admiring the familiar scenery outside the window, and finally felt like going home.
She squinted her eyes comfortably, "It's still more comfortable at home."
Li Xia was talking to her at the side, "If the young lady doesn't come back, she will miss the fifth young lady's wedding."
Shen Xingwan was shocked. Shen Qingran was actually getting married?
After missing out on the fourth prince Lu Yu, Shen Qingran has always been devoid of desires and devoted himself to his career.
"So sudden?"
Li Xia smiled and said, "It's not sudden. The other party is Xie Jiangzhi, one of the three princesses of Yannan, and the fifth lady is a perfect match."
Shen Xingwan really didn't know much about Yan Nan's situation. She pondered for a while and asked, "Is it from a wealthy family? How did they know each other?"
"It is said that we met while we were playing outside. The Xie family invited a matchmaker to come to the house to make peace. After the old lady asked the fifth lady for her opinion, she quickly agreed."
Some time ago, the Xie family came to have a wedding, and Shen Qingran specifically chose the last date to get married, hoping to wait until she came back.
"It's too sudden." Shen Xingwan felt complicated.
Among the sisters in the Shen family, she was the only one who knew Shen Qingran the best and had the best relationship. In the past two years, she had spent less time together and more separation, and Shen Qingran had grown into a woman who could stand alone, and her reputation in Yannan was quite good.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she came back, I heard the news that she was getting married.
Shen Xingwan took a light nap and went to attend the reception banquet in the evening feeling refreshed.
Everyone present was from the Shen family, so the atmosphere was harmonious and relaxed. As the protagonist, Shen Xingwan was coaxed to drink a few glasses of wine, and his face quickly became a little red.
After three rounds of drinking, the elder said, "It's getting late. Let's all leave and get some rest early."
The girls and young men all dispersed in twos and threes. Shen Xingwan held up a glass lamp in his hand and looked at Shen Qingran with drunken eyes.
Shen Qingran gave some instructions to her servants and told them to get ready, just as she walked over, "Aren't you going to go back and rest?"
Shen Xingwan smiled at her and said, "I just slept during the day, and I don't feel sleepy now."
Shen Xingwan also mentioned a rabbit lantern, "Then let's take a night tour of Shen's Mansion. You haven't fully appreciated the night view of Shen's Mansion yet."
The two of them walked side by side, and the two maids followed them not too far or too close.
The evening breeze blew, everything was quiet, and neither of them spoke for a while.
The moonlight over the lotus pond was just beautiful. They walked for a while and sat down in the pavilion.
"Why did you suddenly decide to get married?" Shen Xingwan asked.
"He is a nice person. He promised that after we get married, he will not restrict me to living in the back house. I can do what I like." Shen Qingran put a smile on her face, "What's more important is that he comes from the Xie family."
The Xie family is the leader of the Qingliu clan in Yannan and has extraordinary influence in Yannan.
"Both King Luo and the eldest princess have a deep relationship with Yan Nan. In addition, Yan Nan is rising as a soldier. Yan Nan is destined to have extraordinary influence now and in the future."
She married into the Xie family, which of course had other meanings.
Shen Xingwan looked at the lotus pond with complicated emotions, "You don't have to be like this."
Shen Qingran smiled, "As the daughter of the Shen family, she will get married sooner or later, and as Princess Luo, you may go further in the future. The Shen family is destined to be in the spotlight..."
"Xingwan, on the road to supreme imperial power, you have to walk steadily step by step..."
Once it falls, it will be irreversible.
As the daughter of the Shen family and the fifth sister of Shen Xingwan, she will marry into the Xie family, the most influential family in Yannan, and become the clan wife of the Xie family.
Shen Xingwan will stand in a very high position in the future, and the Shen family and they will become her most powerful backing. This is the meaning of a family, both prospering and losing, and watching out for each other.
Shen Xingwan held her hand and said, "One day, our time will come."
"I made an agreement with him that after we get married, we will open a women's college in the name of the Xie family." Shen Qingran's eyes were frighteningly bright, "This is what it means for us to go up and stand in a high position. The higher we stand. , the greater the influence, the more things can be done.”
"So Xingwan, go forward and don't look back. Be the person who is equal to the most powerful person in the world."
"Okay, even a single spark can start a prairie fire." Shen Xingwan responded.
Since they have come to this era, they will naturally do some meaningful things. I hope they can also leave a lasting mark in this era.
From the moment she made the choice to embark on this path from Jiangnan, many things were destined.
