The captain of the guard copied down the household registration names of these people, and then asked the household registration officer to retrieve the household registration files to see what these people's ancestors did.

After all the trouble, a day passed.

The next day, the entrance to the Princess's Mansion was quiet and no one dared to approach.

A few days later, under the supervision of Wei Zhan, the magistrate of Mei County opened a court to try those who had created disturbances.

For those with minor crimes, they were beaten with twenty fists in court, and their families were asked to bring a deposit to guarantee the person. They were also asked to sign a letter of commitment that if they dared to cause trouble or harass the people again, they would be severely punished.

Those with criminal records were in big trouble, because Chu Shun collected a lot of evidence of their crimes of bullying men and women, and brought all the victims to identify the criminals' crimes in court.

The magistrate of Mei County was sweating profusely as he examined and pronounced verdicts on each case.

Wei Zhan ordered the bailiffs to drag the sentenced criminals to the open space outside the county government office and execute them in the street.

For a moment, there was wailing in front of the county government office, and people from all over the city rushed to watch the fun, applauding.

The county lieutenant and the chief clerk were terrified. Knowing that some of their relatives were among those sentenced, they dared not say a word.

They were also mistaken, thinking that the princess was just a paper tiger who relied on the emperor's favor and had no more dignity than the real royal family. As a result, she was swift and resolute, doing so many things right from the start and arresting so many people at once, without fear of revenge from others.

However, since this incident, the public security in the county has been exceptionally good, there are more small vendors, and more farmers from outside the city are coming into the city to sell vegetables and firewood.

Time flies and it is August.

Wei Zhan's biological father, the head of the Wei family, bought two houses next to his daughter-in-law's residence and transformed them into a large house with several courtyards inside.

Because there were too many members of the Wei family, the place was too small and there were not enough yards to accommodate them all.

Wei Shixian had his own considerations for doing this.

He is a businessman, so naturally he has to take advantage of the situation to go long-term.

Although his family had two shops in Zhouhe County before, they didn't make much money.

It’s not that business is bad, but there are too many people to honor, and every aspect has to be taken care of.

Now that his son and daughter-in-law are the bosses in Zhouhe County, even the county magistrate has to pay homage to them. If he doesn't seize the opportunity, he would be a fool.

So Wei Shixian decided to move his family to Zhouhe County and rely on his son and daughter-in-law for support.

"Jinniang, I have cleaned up your yard. You can move back anytime." Wei Shixian smiled at his wife flatteringly, "When Qilang and his family have a baby, you can come over and help take care of it."

Mrs. Wang thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll tell Yingbao later and move back right away."

Her residence in the princess's mansion for some time has indeed affected the lives of the young couple.

Qilang and Yingbao are both very busy. If they keep disturbing her, they will have to get up early every day to greet her and take care of her daily life, which is really troublesome.

Moreover, she wants to have a grandchild as soon as possible. Letting the young couple work too much will not be conducive to having a grandchild.

When Wei Shixian heard this, his eyes lit up with smiles and he quickly asked the maids to pack up.

Yingbao wasn't surprised when she heard that her mother-in-law was going to move back home.

My father-in-law bought a house next door and started construction a long time ago. Now most of the renovations have been completed, so it is natural for my mother-in-law to move back to the Wei family to take charge of the household chores.

Fortunately, the two houses are close to each other, so it is very convenient for my mother-in-law to come over if she wants to.

Yingbao asked Mudan to move a dozen pots of flowers to the Wei family and place them in her mother-in-law's yard, and also sent a few pots of mosquito repellent grass.

Mu Dan took the order and went out. After a while, he came back and said, "Princess, Madam Cao also wants some pots of mosquito repellent grass."

This time, Cao also returned to Zhouhe County, bringing her sister Cao Qingqing with her.

She was reluctant at first, but thinking that her father-in-law would definitely buy a property in Zhouhe County, if she didn't come with him, she might not get a share of the property, so she came anyway, and brought her sister along.

Seeing this, the other sons and daughters-in-law of the Wei family also came along, with each family occupying an entire yard.

"There are still some in the yard. You can move a few pots over and send two pots to each room." Yingbao held the Compendium of Materia Medica without raising his head.

I have plenty of these mosquito repellent plants. Since they want them, I'll just give them to them.

Mu Dan agreed and led several maids to move the flower pots.

Xinghua was a little unhappy and muttered, "Madam Cao is really something. She asks the princess for everything. If we don't have it here, it will be embarrassing for both sides."

Mu Dan glared at her and said, "It's already been given, so stop talking. If the Wei family hears, they'll think our princess is stingy with a few pots of grass."

Xinghua snorted, but didn't say anything else.

Inside the house, Yingbao saw that the time had come, so she took out the pupil spring and gave Chu Wuyang a bath.

This was the last soak. After it was done, the little baby was completely healed.

But he is doing well now. He is plump and white after being fed with goat milk, and can crawl around in the bathroom a few times.

"Oh ah." Wuyang called to Yingbao, opening his little arms for a hug.

Yingbao took off his clothes and put him in the basin of water.

The water is warm. I don’t know how Xuanwu made it, but it’s just the right temperature for taking a bath.

Xiao Wuyang has become accustomed to taking a bath every day. He happily slaps the water with his little hands, splashing Yingbao all over, and then giggles.

"Look, I'm going to spank you!" Yingbao spanked his little butt a few times and washed his hair and face with a towel.

An Rou came in with clean clothes and said in a low voice: "Princess, let me come."

Yingbao hummed and stood up.

Wuyang blinked, protested loudly, and stretched out his hands towards Yingbao: "Ah!"

Yingbao touched his head and said, "Stay in the water and come out later."

Wuyang puffed up his lips, as if he understood. He put down his little hands and patted the edge of the basin.

An Rou smiled and said, "Wu Yang is getting smarter and smarter."

Wuyang turned his face away.

Looking everywhere for his little turtle.

An Rou knew what he wanted and stuffed a little wooden turtle into the little kid's hand.

This was made by the princess. It is very delicately carved and even without any paint, it is lifelike enough.

Wuyang took the little turtle and started chewing it, then put it into the water and splashed it, trying to make it swim.

Yingbao was still reading the book and talking to Xuanwu in her heart.

"My brother wrote to me, saying that Xiao Mo left the capital and disappeared, and took Murong Xian with him. Where do you think he went?"

Murong Xian had been imprisoned by Zhou Wuchang in a palace next to the palace. Although he was provided with good food and drink every day, he could not step out of the mansion.

The house was surrounded by guards, and not even a fly could fly over. So how did Xiao Mo manage to get a living person out

Xuanwu: "I calculated with my fingers, he must have gone to the Kingdom of Jin."

"You went to Jin?" Ying Bao frowned: "What did you go to Jin for?"

Xuanwu: “I don’t know.” It doesn’t want to know about that guy.

"He won't go to join the Kingdom of Jin, right?" Yingbao always felt that the guy had bad intentions.

Xuanwu shook his head: "I won't surrender to the Jin Kingdom." It was good enough that he didn't destroy the Jin Kingdom, so why would he surrender to a foreign country

However, it did not know that the Supreme Master's secular surname was actually Xiao, and that he was a brother of Xiao Chengjun.

It is no wonder that he would protect Xiao Chengjun and the Chen family.
