Pei Xiu smiled, "I want to borrow your auspicious words! I hope to go further with Master Qiu. After all, there should be no more wars."

"Oh, you two shouldn't be flattering and flattering. You look envious of me, but it's a pity that my husband couldn't join the expedition team at this time."

Mrs. Qiu chuckled, "It's okay not to go to the battlefield, you don't have to worry about it. When I have a big belly, I always like to think wildly, and I worry about becoming a widow every day."

Mrs. Luo glared at her, "Bah ah ah, good spirits, bad ones not working, don't talk nonsense."

"I'll just say it casually, and I don't know who the Sage will point Princess Dongrong to?"

"Prince, right? After all, the princess is here to marry, and the sage will not point out the diplomatic relations between the two countries to outsiders."

As soon as Mrs. Luo's voice fell, she heard someone reporting, "Three ladies, there is a decree in the palace, Princess Dongrong pointed the prince as Liangyuan."

"Sure enough, my sister-in-law's guess was accurate."

Pei Xiu smiled and said, "It's normal, 80% of the people in the capital guessed it was for the prince."

"Yeah, the Sage is not young anymore." Madam Qiu said in a low voice.

They nodded tacitly, the East Palace's position was stable, and they were very relieved.

After Pei Xiu stayed for a while, he left first.

The carriage was driving on the street, and the sound of discussions with relatives could be heard in my ears, and there were more Dongrong people coming and going on the street.

It should be the accompanying guards and servants who escorted Princess Dongrong into Beijing, right?

Shouldn't he have retreated by now? That's why the people of Dongrong can go out and go shopping to see how prosperous they are in the Great Xia Dynasty.

She felt that the Great Xia Dynasty might usher in a prosperous era in the near future.

I believe this opportunity will not be long...

The carriage swayed all the way home, and as soon as she got home, she twisted her neck and waist.

As long as she went out, she had to roll over her body and head. On a hot day, she had to go inside three floors and three floors outside. She was sweating in Mrs. Qiu's house.

Confinement on a hot day was too painful. The doors and windows of the house were closed and airtight. She felt guilty for Madam Qiu and had to sit for two months.

It just happened to be the hottest time.

Sitting on the dressing table, she began to remove the golden hairpins on her head, then took off her coat, and when she was about to change into light and thin regular clothes, she heard someone report it.

"Ma'am, there is an imperial decree in the palace, and the Lord of the Lijian will arrive at our mansion to pass the decree in two quarters of an hour..."

Pei Xiu turned around in surprise and said, "Quick, go and prepare the incense case."

Zhou Chenggong can really be promoted again.

She didn't care about the heat, she quickly put on her third-grade lady-like dress, three layers inside and three layers outside, then put the headgear on again, and then went to the front yard lobby to wait.

Seeing Eunuch Si Li smiling, she was sure that she would be promoted.

"Congratulations to Mrs. Zhou, congratulations to Mrs. Zhou, Mr. Zhou is really Jane in the Sacred Heart, and has been promoted continuously in recent years, please accept the order!"

"Yes."

Pei Xiu's face was flushed, smiling and leading the people in the mansion to kneel down to receive the decree.

"Fengtian transported the emperor, and the edict said: General Zhou Cheng of Wuyi... The long sword is pointed horizontally, and it is invincible... Specially appointed General Jianwei of the second rank, and the general of the Wujun army leading the right dragon, I am here."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

"Congratulations to Mrs. Zhou..."

"Thank you, my lord, I'd like to trouble you for a trip. Please have a glass of wedding wine and be happy."

The eunuch Sili took over the purse from Ginkgo and nodded with a smile, "Then we're welcome, and we'll also show your joy."

After Pei Xiu sent the person away with a smile, he offered the imperial decree.

"Congratulations Madam, Madam Hexi." All the servants knelt down and bowed again.

She nodded with a smile on her face, "Get up, tell the accountant, today everyone is giving out an extra month's worth of money as a reward, and they are all happy."

"Thank you ma'am."

The servants all laughed and blossomed. There is no more comfortable and suitable residence for the elderly than the Zhou Mansion. The lady is kind, and the masters have few things to do.

Pei Xiu really did not expect that she was actually promoted. She was just talking about Mrs. Qiu. After all, Zhou Chengzhen was promoted too fast.

It can be said that in just a few years, the song has been singing all the way without stopping.

I don't know if Master Qiu has also been promoted?

Should it go up?

The two have always been in and out, fighting side by side.

After everything was done, the first time she returned to the house was to take off her clothes.

Dog days, it was really too stuffy and hot, and the dress was so heavy, a thin layer of sweat was already oozing out from her back.

"Ginkgo go get me a basin of water, it's too hot and uncomfortable."

"Yes, ma'am."

She felt much more comfortable in a single dress, although it was still hot.

While waiting, she went to remove all the hairpin rings, and suddenly felt a lot lighter on her body.

It was not until she wiped her body and put on the thin Xia Shan that she felt that this person had come to life.

It would be even better if I could have another bite of iced watermelon.

"Go and cut me a small bowl of watermelon."

"Ma'am, you can't eat well water iced, and you can't eat more..."

Pei Xiu glared at her strangely, "I know, long-winded, don't give me ice-cold, just a small bowl at room temperature, just let me relieve the heat."

Ginkgo responded with a smile, "Yes, this servant will let the little girl pick it up."

She sat in the shade in the yard, fanning with a fan, waiting for the watermelon to be delivered.

Now that the war at the border is over, it's time to send someone back home to have a look, and by the way, I can tell the old lady the good news.

I guess she's in a hurry? This year is later than usual, but it is easier to give money directly and go back quickly.

When she was on her way back last year, she was really shocked when she encountered bandits, but she was still safe because there was no cargo to hold her fast.

"lady……"

"Huh~"

She was thinking when she heard a familiar voice calling her.

"Are you back at this time?"

The corners of Zhou Cheng's eyes and brows were also filled with joy, "After handing over the matter, I will come back with the reward first, right?"

"Mmmm, congratulations to General Zhou for going a step further."

He raised the corners of his mouth and took her directly into his arms.

"Thank you, daughter-in-law. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Pei Xiu chuckled: "It's none of my business, you climbed to such a high position on your own, I only stay in the inner house, and I can't help you."

"No, ma'am, I have today. You have worked hard and made great achievements. You are the best virtuous inner helper, so that I can have no worries. Besides, you also discovered the new seed, but the credit goes to me..."

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

She was a little confused, just get promoted, why is it related to the new breed?

"In the court today, some people questioned that I was promoted too fast, and the prince refuted it by listing the military exploits one by one, and said in front of the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty that the new breed began with me..."
