Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the rebels were defeated, the commoners in the capital heaved a sigh of relief.

The next day, the capital returned to normal.

At this moment, the empress dowager’s birthday was also decided to be celebrated in three days.

After Li Xiaoran received this news, she suddenly thought of something and quickly ran to look for Luo Cheng.

“Husband, husband, I heard that the empress dowager’s birthday is going to be held in three days. What birthday gift are we giving her?”

Luo Cheng was writing a letter when he saw Li Xiaoran rush in, so he put down his pen and smiled.

“Xiaoran, why are you so moody?”

Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“Whatever I call you depends on my mood!”

Luo Cheng laughed when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Yes, you’re right! In the future, I’ll have to call you my beloved consort!”

“Pfft, pfft, pfft. What do you mean? You make me sound like the emperor’s consort. You should call me Xiaoran. Either call me Xiaoran or Madam. Anyway, I don’t like being called a consort! Husband, if you call me Beloved Consort, I’ll get mad at you!” Li Xiaoran placed her hands on her hips and pretended to be angry.

When Luo Cheng saw Li Xiaoran’s cute and feisty appearance, he found her even more adorable.

“Alright, alright, alright. I definitely won’t give you a chance to get mad at me! The birthday gift is ready. Don’t worry! If you really want to know what I gave you, I’ll bring you to see it later!”

Li Xiaoran nodded.

“Alright, alright! I have to take a look! Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if someone asked me what birthday gift I’m giving the empress dowager after entering the palace and I couldn’t answer!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he thought about it for a moment before saying in agreement, “You’re right. Let’s go now!”

With that, Luo Cheng stood up. After washing the ink off his hand, he brought Li Xiaoran to the storeroom.

The birthday gift had been prepared a long time ago and had been placed in the house that the emperor had rewarded Luo Cheng with.

Luo Cheng had just asked someone to bring the birthday gift over today and planned to bring it straight to the royal family in three days.

After she opened the storeroom and lifted the red silk, Li Xiaoran’s eyes widened when she saw the birthday gift in front of her.

After a while, Li Xiaoran turned around and looked at Luo Cheng.

“Husband, this birthday gift is really good! But are you sure the empress dowager will like this birthday gift?”

Luo Cheng knew what Li Xiaoran meant, so he grinned.

“I’ve never received any rewards from the empress dowager since I was young. Everything I have today was obtained through my own hard work. Now, I respect her as my elder. In my eyes, this birthday gift is priceless!”

Li Xiaoran said worriedly, “In my opinion, such a gift is priceless, but I’m afraid the empress dowager, the emperor, and the ministers won’t think so!”

Luo Cheng smiled and said indifferently, “Don’t worry! I don’t care what others say, as long as I have a clear conscience!”

Seeing that Luo Cheng really didn’t care, Li Xiaoran didn’t say anything else.

Luo Cheng asked, “Then do you care? Do you care about the nasty things others say when they attack us?”

Li Xiaoran said, “Why should I care?! They’re not important to me! Even if the empress dowager despises the birthday gift we gave her, I don’t mind. At most, we’ll just stay far away in the future! We’re not begging them, so what’s there to be afraid of?! Besides, I think your birthday gift is very good. At least, I think you’ve really put in a lot of effort!”

With Li Xiaoran’s assurance, Luo Cheng felt relieved.

“It’s good that Li Xiaoran doesn’t care! Anyway, we’ve never thought of competing for favor or the throne. Let’s just do whatever we want!”

Li Xiaoran thought so too, thus, the couple threw the matter about the birthday gift to the back of their minds.

Today, the weather was even more muggy than yesterday’s. Li Xiaoran was extremely not.

Even though there were ice cubes in the room, Li Xiaoran kept fanning herself with a fan.

“Husband, why did the weather suddenly become so hot?! I feel that the humidity here in the capital differs from that in Sichuan! When it gets hot here, it hurts!”

Luo Cheng also felt that the weather was a little abnormal. Then, he thought about it for a moment and said, “Ask Wu Qinghe to divine later and see if there’s any drought or flood!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately remembered.

“Yes, yes, yes. It’s time to let Wu Qinghe play his part! If there really are natural disasters, we have to make plans in advance! If there are floods, it’ll be troublesome if we encounter them on the way back!”

Luo Cheng felt that this was indeed very important, so he nodded.

“Alright, I’ll call Wu Qinghe over later!”

Wu Qinghe had previously learned that the state preceptor had come to change the fengshui of the house, so he had been engrossed in studying the fengshui of the Seventh Prince’s residence for the past few days.

When he heard that Luo Cheng was looking for him, Wu Qinghe quickly ran over.

“Brother Luo Cheng, why are you looking for me?”

Luo Cheng explained his thoughts directly, “The weather suddenly became much hotter. This is a little abnormal! We want you to divine if there will be a drought or waterlogging! ”

After Wu Qinghe glanced at the bright sunlight outside, he thought about it for a moment before saying, “How about this? I’ll observe the astronomical phenomenon at night and do divination. This way, it’ll be more accurate!”

“Alright, tell us the results afterwards!” Luo Cheng thought of something and added, “By the way, it’s the empress dowager’s birthday in three days, so we’ll be leaving after congratulating the empress dowager! It’s better to set off on that day!”

“Alright, leave it to me!” Wu Qinghe accepted the task.

However, in the following period of time, Wu Qinghe focused on studying the fengshui of the Seventh Prince’s residence.

After all, there wasn’t much time left for him to study. He was leaving in three days, so he had to hurry!

For the past few days, Shu Ruyue had been worried about the situation at home.

Just as she was feeling a little uneasy, someone from the Shu family came looking for her.

“Hello, we’re Shu Ruyue’s clansmen. Please inform Shu Ruyue that we want to see her!” A middle-aged man went forward and explained his intentions to the guard.

As soon as he heard that they were Shu Ruyue’s clansmen, the guard asked them to wait a moment while they went in to call for help.

As soon as Shu Ruyue heard that her clansmen were here, she quickly ran to the door.

When Shu Ruyue saw who it was, she shouted in surprise.

“Fifth Uncle, why are you here?”
