This matter quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, and it became a topic of conversation for everyone.

“Was Princess really thrown out of the wall by the future wife of the general?”

“I saw it with my own eyes. It’s true.”

“The future wife of the general is really tough.”

“That’s right. This princess is unruly and willful. She’s finally met a match.”

“Haha…”

The Emperor quickly heard the news and sighed silently. Changle, oh Changle, that girl is really not to be trifled with. If you provoke her, you are in trouble.

The empress had also heard about it. She never expected Chu Qingzhi to dare to hit the princess and embarrass her so much. She was a heroine among women.

After hearing about Chu Qingzhi’s heroic deeds, many girls from the capital formed a small group and booked a venue. They sent Chu Qingzhi an invitation, all wanting to get to know this powerful girl.

It just so happened that Chu Qingzhi was the future wife of the general. It was necessary to build a good relationship with the general’s wife.

This happened three days later.

After sleeping for an hour, Chu Qingzhi walked to the kitchen.

Nanny Han was meticulous and bought many types of food. They were fresh and good. Chu Qingzhi was very satisfied.

“Miss, what do you need my help with?”

“Help me start the fire later.”

“Sure.”

Nanny Han sat on the fire stool and looked at Chu Qingzhi gently.

The girl looked noble, but she was not pampered. Look at her knife skills. She cut the vegetables quickly and well, like an old master who had been working for decades.

Nanny Han asked curiously, “What does Miss Chu’s family do?”

Chu Qingzhi said frankly, “My family is in the village. We farm.”

Nanny Han did not believe her. “Miss, are you joking with me? How can a farm girl be as beautiful as you? You’re clearly a noble lady.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at her and smiled. “Nanny, don’t judge a book by its cover.”

Nanny Han smiled. “Of course. But I just don’t think you look like one.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Really. If you don’t believe me, you can go to my house to take a look.”

Nanny Han quickly agreed. “Okay, I’ll definitely go if I have the chance.”

“Qingzhi!”

Tang Jinghong was back. After so many years, he had never wanted to go home so badly.

Chu Qingzhi turned to the window and replied, “I’m in the kitchen.”

Soon, Tang Jinghong’s footsteps sounded outside the kitchen. His footsteps were steady and powerful, with a hint of urgency, just like his current mood.

Tang Jinghong wanted to hug Chu Qingzhi, but with Nanny Han around, he could only behave himself. However, the way he looked at Chu Qingzhi was as gentle as water.

“Qingzhi, let me do it. Go and rest.”

Chu Qingzhi refused. “Go and rest. The food will be ready soon.”

When Nanny Han saw this scene, she felt like a third wheel, so she quietly left the kitchen.

When Tang Jinghong saw Nanny Han leave, he immediately hugged Chu Qingzhi. He was especially excited now. “Qingzhi, you make me feel like I have a home.”

Chu Qingzhi said gently, “Me too.”

She had been alone from the beginning to the end, too busy to think about matters of the heart. Now Tang Jinghong gave her a feeling that she never had before. She thought this must be the love tribulation she had to transcend.

Tang Jinghong smiled brightly. “Shall we cook together?”

“Sure.”

Chu Qingzhi was busy for a while before she suddenly said, “Jinghong, I hit the princess today. Is it alright?”

Tang Jinghong still did not know about this. When he heard this, he looked at Chu Qingzhi in shock. “Princess is here again?”

As he listened to the princess being beaten up, he could not help but feel good.

Chu Qingzhi said casually, “She came and scolded me for being shameless and bewitching you. Anyway, she scolded me very badly. Then, she whipped me, so I retaliated.”

Tang Jinghong’s face darkened, and he felt even more disgusted with the princess. “It’s fine if you hit her. As long as you’re happy, you can hit her a few more times.”

Chu Qingzhi asked worriedly, “Will the Emperor find trouble with us?”

After all, imperial power was still supreme in this era. If she hit someone from the royal family, she would be offending the royal family and could be punished.

Tang Jinghong said, “He won’t. We helped him with such a big case. If he punishes you because of this, it’s fine if we don’t pledge loyalty to such an Emperor.”

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself. Jinghong was loyal to the Emperor. Fortunately, he was not foolishly loyal. She was relieved. “Okay.”

At the inn.

Chu Xujin glanced at the three of them in confusion. “Lihua, why did you bring her back?” Not only that, but there was also another person.

“It’s a long story.” Ge Lihua poured a glass of water and drank it. “Xujin, where is Qingzhi?”

Chu Xujin said, “I don’t know, but if you’re in a hurry to find her, you can send her a letter with the eagle.”

Ge Lihua took out a whistle from his pocket and blew on it. A pitch-black eagle quickly flew into the inn and landed on the table.

Ge Lihua borrowed a pen and paper from the shopkeeper and wrote a letter to Chu Qingzhi, asking the eagle to send it to her.

When Lin Wanning and Si Yuheng saw this scene, their eyes widened. Who did they meet? They actually used an eagle to send a message? How awesome!

After Chu Qingzhi received the letter, she rushed to the inn.

When Ge Lihua saw Chu Qingzhi, she pulled her to the room upstairs and explained to her what had happened.

Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, Why are the Lin family so vicious? “Forget it, we’ll help that girl if we can. As for Si Yuheng…”

She thought about it and said, “Lihua, it’s been hard on you. Rest well. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Ge Lihua nodded. “Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi went downstairs and sized up Si Yuheng. He was 17 or 18 years old and was wearing a black brocade robe. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was cheerful and confident. “You’re Si Yuheng?”

Si Yuheng did not dare to look at Chu Qingzhi directly. He only glanced at her quickly and cupped his fists. “I’m Si Yuheng. Greetings, Miss.”

This girl was clearly younger than Miss Lihua, but her aura was even stronger. He did not dare to look at her.

“There’s no need to be so polite.” Chu Qingzhi couldn’t be bothered to beat around the bush and said bluntly, “Do you know a person called Si Shijiang?”

Si Yuheng became excited and asked with bright eyes, “Miss, have you seen my grandfather?”

Chu Qingzhi was slightly surprised. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence? She said, “Yes, but he said that you were in the eastern border. Why are you here?”

Si Yuheng said without reservation, “I haven’t seen my grandfather in a long time, so I specially came to see him..”
