Little Pei then said: ”This junior wishes for you to help me look at the Book of Life and Death, and see how old Madam Xu is. My mother told her father to send over the wicked woman as soon as possible, I'm worried that there might be a reward for her.”

Yama laughed, ”Don't worry. As long as the higher-ups don't cause any trouble, nothing can go wrong. Do you understand what I'm saying?”

Little Pei was overjoyed, and promised to send more food to the Yama in a few days, before returning to the ground happily.

The next morning, Uncle Biao said that there were too few dishes and wine in the kitchen, but there were no traces of thieves at the inn, nor any footprints left behind by wild wolves.

Uncle Biao said he definitely remembered correctly, and said angrily that if he caught the thief who stole the food and wine, he would definitely give him a good beating.

Little Pei unconsciously covered his butt and quickly ran off.

In the capital, the Lang Zhong Manor was also decorated with lanterns and decorations. Although the little grandson's house was small, the Old Madem was very open and happy to stay here. Furthermore, he ordered her eldest grandson to tell the people of the Bi Family Clan that there was no need to disturb her at the middle age of the new year. As for whether or not they would go to the Prime Minister's Estate, she did not care.

The Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi had originally been grounded for two years, but this time, he was brought back home by Bi Zhenye, so he was naturally sent back to his home.

On New Year's Eve, both Ershan and Bi Zhenye received the Emperor's grace to allow them to enter the palace for the feast. Their official positions were both only at the fifth rank, if it were other people, they might not have the honor.

During the New Year's Eve banquet, Lian Yi and the Old Madem were invited by the Empress Dowager and Queen to talk. When the other noble officials saw this scene, they knew that the Bi’s Mansion was still there, and were a little more polite to Bi Zhenye and Ling Yu.

Since he was young, Bi Zhenye followed his father around the government and knew more people than Ershan. Whenever he had the chance, his brother would lead his younger brother to meet people who knew him.

As for the two youths, their appearances were handsome and handsome. They naturally attracted the attention of others wherever they went.

On this side, the aristocratic ladies gathered together. The girls looked at the scene in the seats and whispered amongst themselves.

Shen Qing had just returned from the rear hall and wanted to eat a few dishes before going to Empress Dowager to accompany his. Just as she sat down, he heard a few others speaking beside his, ”My uncle went to the Prime Minister's Estate to propose marriage, but unfortunately, there were too many Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi at that time, and he didn't put anyone in his eyes at all. But now, with so many lawsuits going on in their family, even if they were to bring an eight carriers palanquin chair, my uncle would not be willing to marry his daughter. ”

”You can't put it like that either. Bi Hanxi is the Empress's sister-in-law now. I heard that even if her mother was in Siping Mansion, she wouldn't need to work hard anymore. It seems like it will only be a matter of time before she is pardoned and brought back. ”

”This family is truly rare. Even with them like this, those two brothers can still live in harmony with each other.” ”My family's brothers and sisters, for the sake of our father's peace, we were on the verge of a fight.”

Shen Qing ate a few mouthfuls of food silently before putting down her chopsticks. She stood up and left, the bystanders bowed, and under the crowd of Palace Maid, she arrived at Empress Dowager's side. At the moment, both Old Madem Bi and Madam Ling were still there, and Old Madem Bi said to Empress Dowager, ”Today, my granddaughter is going to be blessed to be able to marry the general.

Empress Dowager laughed: ”After you enter the palace and walk around, now that you are relatives of the empress, you are like family.” She said to Siyan, ”That sister-in-law of yours left home with your brother. After this, the empress will help you take care of your family's matters.”

Siyan smiled, ”Grandson will remember.”

Empress Dowager continued: ”Oh right, old lady, is your eldest grandson not married yet?”

The Old Madem hurriedly said, ”Before, that child wholeheartedly wanted to become the top scorer, but now he is going to represent the Emperor. I have talked to him about the matter of marriage several times, but he said that he was too busy and did not have time.”

The Empress Dowager laughed: ”Young children nowadays are always like this. They are very stubborn. I'll make the empress pay attention to this matter. Don't worry, when spring begins, there will definitely be a happy occasion. ”

Old Madem was overjoyed. He pulled Lian Yi along and kowtowed to Empress Dowager and the Queen, then ordered Shen Qing to help the old lady up.

Siyan sat at the side and saw Little Qing smiling gently at the Old Madem. She remembered what happened before, at that time, in order to prevent Bi Hanxi from marrying into the Xiluo, Little Qing had went around everywhere.

The Empress shifted her gaze away and searched for Bi Zhenye's traces below. Sure enough, he was sitting in the seating area, her gaze was looking in this direction, and it was unknown if it was because she was worried about her grandmother and sister-in-law, or was looking at someone else. The Empress looked at him for a long time, but Bi Zhenye was unable to detect anything.

After that, Old Madem and Lian Yi left, and it was another family's young mistress' turn to speak. Shen Qing was still waiting by her aunt's side, and the empress's gaze once again landed on Bi Zhenye, meeting him again.

The empress picked up a glass of wine and took a sip. This wasn't something that could be easily done.
