Mu Zhizhi's family situation was a little complicated. Her mother died of illness when she was ten years old, and her father remarried not long after.

The stepmother was very kind to her when she first entered the family, but after she gave birth to a younger brother, she realized that her father didn't care much about her as a daughter, so he began to ignore her.

Yes, it's not abuse, it's just ignorance. At the same time, she lets all the servants who treat her harshly ignore all the evil they do to her.

She herself had never taken any action, but in order to please her, those servants began to use various methods to cause trouble for her.

Either her father finally remembered her homework for a school exam, but the handwriting was splashed with ink and was no longer legible, or the newly embroidered birthday picture was cut into pieces.

It was all such small things, and none of them hurt her.

She also complained to her father, but his father looked at her smiling stepmother and cute little brother and ignored her cries.

No, the wind didn't even reach his ears before it dispersed.

After that, she never asked for trouble again. She only dismissed the servants and stayed alone in her yard, doing everything herself.

She is obviously a young lady from a wealthy family, but she lives like a weed in a closed courtyard.

The only good thing is that her mother taught her a lot before she left, allowing her to survive and become more resilient.

So even after she got married, she didn't like having people around her to serve her, because those soft nails in the dark left such a deep and bad impression on her.

Even if she knew that the General's Mansion was safe and there was no such person, she still got used to being alone. Only then would she feel at ease and peaceful in her heart.

Unexpectedly, this idea was broken on the road to exile. The original courtyard was like a protective wall, but it was also a cage in another sense.

Now, the boundaries were broken and she was living a life she had never imagined, having to interact with people more and say nice things.

But these didn't make her feel uncomfortable.

She thought that it was indeed a human problem. As long as she didn't come into contact with the stepmother's group of people, she didn't have to isolate herself.

That's fine too.

Not talking about her family, just talking about Liuyunxuanyue and Liuyunxuanyue, which made her feel very comfortable getting along with them.

At first, she felt very embarrassed because of her hard work. Later, as she got to know each other better, she felt that they were all one family. When her husband and son got better in the future, she would naturally repay them well, and she no longer felt that way. So indebted.

When the time comes, she will find a way to make money and save more dowries for them, which will also satisfy their love at this time.

It's not better than avoiding him all the time.

The knot in Mu Zhizhi's heart for many years was finally resolved.

Looking at the porridge bubbling in the pot, Shen Xingmian felt a little helpless. He had already finished the dry food and could only cook it freshly.

But it was impossible for everyone to eat the porridge. Fortunately, there was fried wild boar meat to make up for the meal, otherwise the men would have left hungry.

There are a lot of steamed buns and pancakes in her space, but she didn't go to replenish them along the way, so she couldn't take them out at all.

They all come from the capital. Oh, other people's dry food is rancid, but yours is fresh. Isn't this a ghost?

No, she had to find out when she could enter the city for supplies.

She stood up suddenly, startling her aunt who was looking at the fire next to her, but she didn't ask anything and continued to look at her fire.

Shen Xingmian sometimes feels magical. Her aunt often gives her the feeling of living in her own world. If she hadn't been forced into exile, she might not have come out of her own world at all.

It seems pretty good now.

I stood up and looked at the nearest official, who happened to be the one I bribed with a wild boar that day. Yes, he was a lot easier to talk to.

She ran over with light steps and greeted warmly: "Brother official, do you know when we can go to the city to buy something? The family is going to run out of food, and the adults above are not allowed to leave the team to hunt. It's really worrying. well--"

After saying that, he let out a long sigh.

The little official scratched his head, as if he couldn't bear her enthusiasm. He thought for a while and said, "I heard it's tomorrow. If it doesn't rain, I'll go smoothly. But looking at the bright sun, it doesn't look like it's going to rain." Look."

Shen Xingmian also followed his example, covering his eyes with his hands, and looked up at the sky. It was indeed clear and clear, not even a single cloud.

It hasn't rained since she came here. No matter how fertile the land is, it won't be able to grow crops if it stays dry.

You know, Linyue has always been known as a major grain-producing country. If the harvest here declines, it will have an impact on the surrounding countries.

She was really worried about a drought.

With the current emperor's virtue, even if there is a famine, he should not care about it, as long as it does not affect his wanton spending and extravagant life in the palace.

By then, there will probably be no shortage of rebels, and invasion by foreign enemies may occur at any time, and the people will suffer the most.

The emperor, who was rarely remembered by Shen Xingmian, had not been living a comfortable life recently. He was a typical person who wanted and wanted at the same time.

If he could act openly and be a foolish king, he might be living a comfortable life right now. Even if the treasury is emptied, the common people would be fine.

Now that he has become an emperor, there must be no shortage of sycophants around him.

If he gives a little hint, someone will go to great lengths to plunder the people's belongings and offer them to him so that he can continue to live squanderingly.

However, he insists on earning a reputation as a wise man.

It seems that having such a good reputation can prove that he is indeed better than the prince and a more suitable candidate for this dragon chair.

Sure enough, things that are unavailable when you are young will really trap people for life.

Shen Xingmian, who was still worried about the weather, never imagined that what the emperor wanted most was not the throne, but for everyone to admit that he was better than the prince.

But he seemed to have forgotten that the prince had already been killed by him, so what was the point of comparing him to a dead man.

On the other side, in the eldest princess's mansion, many days of searching yielded no results. Even the emperor had no way to do anything. The eldest princess gradually recognized the reality.

It seems impossible to get those treasures back.

But life must go on.

She didn't believe it. She could get those treasures in the past, but would she not be able to get them in the future?

"Come here, I haven't seen Qin Xuan recently. Where are you hiding and lazy? Find someone for me!"

The people under her command were stunned for a moment and did not move when they heard her order.

The eldest princess was so angry that she threw the newly bought tea cup and cursed: "What are you doing here? I can't control you anymore?"

The people below knelt down in fear, and one of them muttered: "Reporting to the eldest princess, Guard Qin... has been beaten to death by your men with sticks."
