Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"Your father is really good at choosing dates..." Lu Anyuan pressed his temple with one hand, his emotions towards the old general becoming more complicated.

"Rather than saying that my father is good at picking dates, it's better to say that our family has a connection with September 15th." That's right! Sun Ziyou and Lu Anyuan were both married on this date. Who knows what benefits this date has?

"Forget it. She will be my mother-in-law in the future, so I can't be too negligent. If there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Revenue, I will find a way to let the Left Assistant Minister take over."

"Huh?" Xu Yixing was puzzled. How could you admit that you were a family? Are you going to escort your road and place people there?

"Do you think I'm nice? No need to thank me, we're all family, hahaha!"

Thank you for your mother's legs!

Days are days after all, some are reluctant, some are happy, and finally the day of Xu's wedding has arrived. Xu Yiwen really did as he said, and he swore to never return, and his father, after receiving his 20-page petition, finally sighed and did not pursue the matter further.

My father got married without his son present, and the guests had some comments to the contrary. However, with the dual titles of General Fuyuan's Mansion and Princess Xiaoyi, it did not cause much impact.

Dad got what he wanted and was still drunk like a teenager on the wedding night. Xu Yixing saw Xu Qian supporting him and staggering back to the bridal chamber, as if he saw the scenes of his father's first two weddings.

When he married his own mother, it was naturally a glorious marriage between two powerful people, and he must have been in high spirits and could drink a lot; when he married Gu, it was only more than a year since the last marriage, and the novelty was gone, but he finally got the money and so-called "good reputation" he had always dreamed of, so he should be happy about it.

At this wedding, all Xu Yixing could see was complacency and arrogance. He thought that he was a general with great contributions and that he was the father-in-law of the most proud prince. What a mean person.

Xu Yixing stayed outside the courtyard until the lights in the bridal chamber were turned off, and then he returned to his own courtyard with a sense of loss.

Two years have passed, and she has gradually begun to forget what death feels like. She can no longer even remember the stomachache caused by the poisoned wine. If this continues, sooner or later she will forget the resentment she felt when she learned from Granny He that her mother's death was caused by her father.

But right now, she seemed to be unable to do anything. Accustomed to dealing with the affairs of the palace and the court together with Lu Anyuan, she thought less and less about her hatred. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

The fact that General Xu married the sister of the former Left Vice Minister gradually became a good story in the capital. Everyone said that the two lived in harmony after marriage, just like an original couple.

In October, the emperor finally stopped expanding the scope of the investigation, and issued clear decrees according to the already drafted charges, with those who deserved to be killed being killed, and those who deserved to be exiled being exiled.

What surprised Xu Yixing and the court officials the most was that the emperor was particularly lenient towards the Dragon Guard soldiers who participated in the rebellion. Apart from the chief officers who were executed, no additional soldiers were punished. They were just disrupted and sent to different places to continue serving. Even their families were not investigated.

Xu Yixing was extremely surprised, and like everyone else, he praised the emperor for his kindness, but when he turned to Lu Anyuan, he saw that he looked serious, even with a hint of sarcasm. Xu Yixing stopped smiling, and sure enough, in the following two or three years, those soldiers who were dispersed died one by one, either in battle, from illness, from exhaustion, or from being punished to death for making mistakes.

Whenever Xu Yixing heard such things from his father, he would recall Lu Anyuan's mocking expression that day. It turned out that he still understood his father better, knowing that although he let those soldiers go on the surface, the reckoning would always take place.

The emperor is so cruel!

Mrs. Zuo had been married into the Xu family for only half a year when the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue retired and returned to his hometown. As an experienced old official, the former Vice Minister of the Left was unsurprisingly re-employed, and the Ministry of Revenue flourished.

Several princes showed off their skills and displayed their prowess in their own fields, but some were in vain while others became even more famous.

Xu Yixing tried to reduce the number of times she appeared in front of everyone, not only because she didn't want to live a life of intrigue, but more importantly, she was running her own shop.

After removing the obstacles, Xu Yixing began to force Si Wen to rapidly expand his store business. The cash flow naturally increased exponentially. Every time he woke up at night with a smile, he would smile even more happily when he thought of the amount of his assets.

The political world was full of ups and downs, the trends in the capital came and went, officials were constantly replaced by new ones, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the growing reputation of King Xiaoyi.

Whether it was opening a porridge factory, repairing the Confucian Temple for candidates to live in, building riverbanks, repairing reservoirs, or opening charity halls, as long as it had something to do with charity, you could see the Xiaoyi Palace either contributing money or effort. Now, not only the people in the capital, but even the people in the border areas, all knew that the Xiaoyi Prince was a figure who was linked to the living Bodhisattva.

Lu Anyuan's name seemed to gradually stand at the center of the court. Whenever there was something to discuss, the emperor would call him out to discuss it. This honor was even more grand and warm than that of the second prince Lu Chiyan. The remaining princes could only look on in amazement.

Although Lu Anyuan's reputation was getting more and more popular, he kept a low profile and lived a semi-hermit life with his princess. He did not hold banquets, did not attend banquets, and did not get involved in the interpersonal relationships in the capital. Except for official palace banquets, there was no news about the couple, which was considered a strange news in the capital.

Three years passed in a flash. Xu Yixing looked down from the North Mountain and saw that the clouds were thick and the fog was thick, covering the way he had come and making his vision somewhat dazzling.

"Madam, let's go back. We have finished worshiping Buddha. It is still too cold in the mountains in autumn." Lu Anyuan put the cloak on his shoulders on Xu Yixing.

Xu Yixing really wanted to show a touching smile, but when he saw Xiaoshe beside him holding his cloak, he felt a little funny as he didn't know whether to move forward or backward.

Lu Anyuan really hasn't changed at all. He doesn't wear a cloak, but instead does something to impress himself. Does he think I didn't see my cloak right next to me?

"Do you think that the Jingxi Temple, which accepts so much silver from us every year, can really bless us with everything going well?"

"I don't believe in the myths of gods and Buddhas. But the orphans adopted by the temple have really benefited from it. I think if you do more good deeds, you won't get into trouble."

"Tsk, I thought you had to follow me to worship Buddha sincerely, but it turns out you don't believe it."

"Madam, guess what wish I just made to the Buddha?" Lu Anyuan came closer. The carriage was so small that Xu Yixing had nowhere to hide.

"I don't know, but I don't want to know. They say wishes won't come true if you tell them out loud. Please don't tell me!"
