After returning to the living room.

Xi Rui grinned and gave Shi Qingluo a thumbs up.

“I used to not listened to anyone, but from now on, I will only listen to you.”

Be it instigating Old Lady Xiao and the others to go to the general’s residence to do harm, or personally dealing with Xiao Yuanshi, these were all methods that they had never seen before.

It was very amazing.

Shi Qingluo picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Ah, thanks for the compliment then!”

She smiled and continued, “Your performance today was also very good. You deserve to be praised!”

Liang Youxiao said meaningfully, “We are influenced to learn bad ideas from bad people.”

As they followed Shi Qingluo, they also became wicker.

Xi Rui nodded excitedly. “Yes, yes. All of us have been learning from you.”

In the past, how would they be able to distort the truth?

They would just go up and settle the matter directly.

However, what made him feel aggrieved was that even though he often helped others to seek justice or was angered after others provoked him, others ended up saying that he was a badass as he used his identity to bully others.

They even said that he was the leader of the dandies in the capital.

He was really being framed!

Although they were clearly throwing dirty water now, not only did everyone believe him, they actually believed that he was trying to uphold justice.

He had learned the skill, and learned it really well.

Shi Qingluo rolled her eyes at the two of them. “What do you mean by ‘you are influenced to learn bad ideas from bad people’? You guys are clearly those who are close to good people.

“I’m a good person.”

Xi Rui and the others thought to themselves, they had never seen a person as shameless as him.

However, they could also be equally shameless. “Yes, yes, we are all good people who like to uphold justice. We are those who are close to the Vermilion Bird. We were wrong just now.”

The servants serving in the hall were speechless

They had seen shameless people before, but they had never seen such shameless people.

Nowadays, even silkpants were beginning to uphold justice..

Xi Rong had learned a lot from Shi Qingluo. “Luoluo, are you guys really going back tomorrow?”

Shi qingluo nodded. “Yes, we have been in the capital for quite a long time. We are a little worried about our family, so it’s about time for us to go back.”

Xi Rong looked at her unwillingly. “I really miss the two of you living in the capital all the time.”

Recently, there had been rumors that the empress dowager was sick.

She definitely couldn’t go to Nanxi county now, else it would attract suspicion.

Xi Rong and Liang Youxiao also gave pitiful looks. “That’s right, we won’t be able to go back with you this time.”

Their family was keeping a close watch on them, so they couldn’t run away like how they did it previously.

Fei Yuzhe was the best.

He could use the excuse of treating his nephew’s illness to continue following them back to Xiaxi village.

However, his personal attendant would probably regret a lot afterwards.

He would be accompanying the old lady and madams of the Fei family to offer incense.

Hence, he would miss out on the big show. Shi Qingluo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “When my hubby comes to the capital for subsequent imperial examinations, we’ll be able to meet again.”

It was just that she didn’t know if her hubby would stay in Hanlin Academy or be allowed to leave after the imperial examinations.

If he stayed in the capital, they would have to buy a house there.

If he was allowed to leave, they would have enough money to buy a courtyard in the capital when he took the next imperial exam.

She said to Xi Rong, “If I can come up with any cosmetics or skincare products in the village, I’ll send you some samples and formulas.”

She did not mind having more money.

The cosmetics shop had to run well.

Xi Rong immediately nodded. “Mmm, I’ll wait for you.”

She was also prepared to manage their cosmetics shop with Luoluo properly.

Liang Youxiao suggested, “Then let’s go to the restaurant for a farewell dinner later.”

Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng both nodded in agreement. “Sure!”

In the imperial palace.

The emperor received the news immediately.

As Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng had no intention of hiding it, the information the emperor received also included the entire contents of what Shi Qingluo and the others had said in the hall.

When he heard that Shi Qingluo called Xiao Yuanshi “ex-father-in-law”, he almost spat out the tea in his mouth.

Could that little girl have done it on purpose?

He kept feeling that the last two words had a different meaning.

He looked down again.

The more he looked, the more he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

In particular, Shi Qingluo eventually went out to twists the fact.

He felt as if he was watching a play.

At this moment, he happened to be in the empress dowager’s palace.

After he finished reading, he handed the paper to her.

Then, he sighed, “This girl is not only clever, she is really not someone to be trifled with.”

According to the legends, the sick empress dowager would lean on a single-seater sofa with a glowing face and take the paper to read.

After Xi Rui came back from Nanxi county, he had specially asked the carpenter to make it and send it in as a gift to the empress dowager.

The empress dowager liked it very much and did not like to sit on her chair anymore.

After reading it, she laughed softly. “This girl is really interesting.”

She had a clear distinction between love and hate, and she could speak eloquently.

Although she had never seen her before, she could imagine that she was a very lively girl.

Because of her granddaughter’s relationship and the seeds offering incident, she had a very good impression of Shi Qingluo.

“Xiao Yuanshi has indeed gone too far. This girl is not wrong either.”

She looked at the intelligence report and felt comfortable with the words that Shi Qingluo said to Xiao Yuanshi.

Of course, the empress dowager hated heartless men.

Back then, if it were not for her maternal family’s support and her helping to contact various young masters in the capital to join forces, it would not have been so easy for the late emperor to overthrow the crippling dynasty previously.

But that bastard, after becoming the emperor and gaining a firm foothold in the imperial court, he began to dote on his concubines and loathe his wife.

Her family could only quickly hand over their military power and keep a low profile.

They did not want that bastard to find any evidence, which was how they avoided the great purge.

But many people who followed the late emperor to conquer the world suffered.

Palace ladies were demoted or thrown into the cold palace to effectively silence their voices.

Therefore, be it for her maternal family or her son, she had been holding back.

She had let that woman, who had been raised outside before the late emperor ascended the throne, become an imperial consort after he ascended the throne.

She had been very arrogant and proud for so many years.

The main reason was that the late emperor had hidden it so well that she did not know that she existed before marriage.

Otherwise, she might not have married the emperor.

Now, she could only think from another perspective.

Her son had officially ascended to the throne and became the emperor.

She and her son were the final winners.

Otherwise, she would not be able to vent her anger.

But when she thought of the woman who was still in the frontier fiefdom and the ex-emperor’s son who wanted to rebel, the empress dowager wanted to pull the late emperor out and whip his corpse.

In order to protect that pair of mother and son, this bastard wanted to cause trouble for her and her son even before his death.

Not only did he appointed the woman’s son as the king, but he also gave him an important fiefdom in the frontier.

Before he died, he even had someone to escort the woman to the frontier.

He was afraid that she and her son would be buried together with that woman.

Hmph, if they died, everything would be over. She would not let them off so easily.

During those days of tolerating grievances, her eldest son had been harmed several times.

She was sabotaged to fall a couple of times during her pregnancy, causing her to give birth to her youngest son prematurely.

Now that her body was not in good shape, how could she just let it go.

She quickly came back to her senses and said with a smile, “This girl is a wonderful person. If there’s a chance next time, I want to see her!”

Seeing the empress dowager’s appearance just now, the emperor naturally could not help but think of the past.

At the same time, he thought, no wonder he looked so appeased.

Xiao Hanzheng had found a good wife.

He nodded and smiled, “Next time let Rongrong bring her into the palace. I’ll show you. That girl is really interesting.”
