After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

"Come home today, don't force me to punish you!" King Xuan looked at his almost crazy daughter in front of him, not knowing whether he was happy or sad.

He could not change the political situation, and even he himself could not withdraw. The only thing he could plan for was his daughter's future.

He thought he should be happy.

The daughter was not someone who would just accept things as they came. The martial arts she learned and the teachers she learned would help her abandon her royal status and live on her own in the future.

That's enough!

He turned away, not wanting to spoil the mood of his daughter and his wife who had just returned home, so he decided to let them have some private conversation!

Late at night, the bustling city of Kyoto had returned to silence, but the study in Prince Xuan's mansion was as silent as death.

If Princess Xuan hadn't pushed the door open, it would have been difficult to notice that there was someone inside.

She brought the freshly baked snacks from the kitchen, turned on the light in the study, and glanced helplessly at the person sitting motionless in front of the desk: "Why does your Highness have to be angry with Ning'er? She has been away from home for many years, so she must have resentment in her heart."

The man heard the familiar voice, and his calm expression finally relaxed a little. He asked softly, "What about you? My Ning'er left home when she was three years old, and you and your daughter were separated. Do you have any complaints?"

His voice was very soft, but it was infinitely amplified in the quiet room.

"Of course I'm resentful." Princess Xuan's voice echoed, instantly shattering the little light that had finally ignited in the man's eyes.

"But I don't hate you." Princess Xuan sat in the man's arms. As they looked at each other, she saw with her own eyes that the man in front of her suddenly brightened up as if he had found a light source.

She snuggled in the man's arms and sighed deeply: "Ning'er is still young, but I know that the Qin family's world will eventually be overthrown. The Wei family's army is now a force to be reckoned with, but His Majesty is still hesitant to hand over the military power. The aristocratic families have been eyeing it covetously. This world..."

"I didn't understand the situation before, and I argued with you over and over again about Ning'er's matter. Now the situation is gradually becoming clear. I am really grateful to the prince for his foresight back then."

The man hugged the fragrant woman tightly in his arms, like a fish stranded on the shore who found its own pond. At this moment, he just wanted to close his eyes and enjoy this rare moment.

"Ning'er is smart, she will understand sooner or later."

"Today's spies reported that they saw people from the noble families entering the Wei family's camp. If the noble families join forces, the Qin family might..."

"For this year's coming-of-age ceremony, let Taoist Liuyun take away all the storehouses in the house. I have already sold those shops and did not deposit them in the bank. I have exchanged them for cash and put them in the storehouse. I will take them away when the time comes. These are enough for Ning'er to live comfortably for the rest of her life."

The man closed his eyes and rested his head on the woman's shoulder, giving her gentle advice one after another, which was completely different from his noble and unapproachable face.

Princess Xuan noticed the slight tremor coming from the man's palm. He was a member of the Qin family. The Qin family's empire was going to be gone. How could such an arrogant man like him be willing to accept this?

But…if the superiors don’t trust you, what good does it matter how great your abilities are?

She patted the hand holding the handkerchief on the man's broad arm to comfort him: "My dowry is mostly precious jewelry. Several shops in Kyoto have been transferred to Qin Bo's name. He left the Qin Palace a long time ago. He also has the staff left by the prince. He can take care of Ning'er in Jiangzhou. I think there will be no problem."

"Well, Jiangzhou is neither too far nor too close to the capital. It has a long rainy season, so it's hard to collect taxes. The noble families don't bother to place people there. It's enough for Ning'er to live in seclusion."

The man asked tentatively: "How about... after the coming-of-age ceremony, you and Ning'er..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Princess Xuan held up the man's face and said word by word: "You and I have been married for many years. At such a critical moment, how can I abandon you!"

"If you really want me to leave, then give me a divorce letter and I will go to Jiangnan to find that man to be my concubine! By then, Ning'er will have to call someone else her father..."

When she was young, her family arranged a marriage for her, but her family fell into poverty, so the man broke the contract and married the daughter of a duke.

Later, she fell in love with the prince at first sight, and the man threatened her with a marriage contract in exchange for her future. The jealous prince directly threw her to Jiangnan, and even downgraded her Duke's Mansion to a Marquis' Mansion.

Naturally, she would not go to Jiangnan to look for a heartless man. She said this only to stir up this man's jealousy and make him stop talking nonsense!

"Woo..." Before the woman could finish her words, she was blocked by the man in a domineering manner.

The two of them greedily absorbed each other's unique taste, enjoying the last peace before the storm.

Coming of age banquet.

The princess' coming-of-age banquet is not a big deal in Kyoto, where banquets are held every few days.

But because it is the royal palace, the people attracted to this banquet are among the most important figures in Kyoto City, and princesses and princes will all be present.

Many people even brought their children of appropriate age to the banquet, hoping to enter the royal family and enjoy the luxurious royal life.

Even a little bit of this that shows through the fingers is enough to solve the family's difficulties.

The banquet lasted until the evening and the guests had a great time, but Qin Ning couldn't feel happy sitting in the yard.

"Ning'er, why are you here alone? The princess sent someone to call you to go boating, but you refused?" Princess Xuan looked at her daughter worriedly. She was usually a lively person, but today it was unusual for her to not participate in these activities.

Qin Ning pouted her lips, which were raised as high as the long mouth of the wine pot, and said to Princess Xuan coquettishly: "Mother, Asu wrote to say that Master has something to do, so he can't come today!"

"But didn't Su'er say that she was only one day late? It would be quiet at home if you come tomorrow. Your mother asked the opera troupe from the Pear Garden to stay at home for a few more days. You and your disciples can have fun behind closed doors tomorrow without being disturbed by others. Wouldn't it be better?" Princess Xuan's smile never stopped as she looked at her lively daughter.

She had been away from Beijing for many years and was not close to people of her age in Kyoto. She did not even have any close friends. She only had a close relationship with Su'er, who was from the same school.

Every time she returned to Kyoto, although everyone would accommodate her because of her status, but the accommodation could not compare to the affection they had for growing up together.

What Princess Xuan said made sense, but Qin Ning still felt wronged in her heart: "But...but this is my daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. It only happens once in a lifetime. I hope Master can see it with his own eyes."

The master never married in her life, and her fellow disciples were her children. She and Asu were even brought up by the master's pampering.

There are also fellow disciples and Asu, who practice martial arts, travel the world, go hunting in the mountains, and "steal thieves"... They have already regarded each other as their relatives in this world.

If such an important person missed the most important moment of her life, it was not just a regret, she always felt empty in her heart.
