After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 452 Marriage?

Xia Wanniang turned around and looked at Rouyue standing behind them: "Come and sit down."

Rouyue walked over to her and sat down: "Madam, how do you know so much?"

Xia Wanniang: "The more you read, the more you will understand. Aren't you beginning to learn to read now? Once you have learned all the characters, you can also learn more from books."

Rouyue nodded: "Okay, I will study hard."

The sun set little by little, and the moon slowly climbed above the head. The originally blue sky turned black and was filled with stars.

Rouyue looked at the starry sky: It turns out that the world outside the underground palace is so beautiful.

Lai Fu ran over quickly: The border was surrounded.

Xia Wanniang's face was solemn and she immediately stood up and walked towards Lai Fu.

Several children and Rouyue looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Xia Wanniang adjusted her expression and said, "It's nothing. I just remembered that I have a few letters to write. If you don't want to read them, come back."

The three children did not doubt: "Okay."

Rouyue could see that her expression was momentarily serious, but she didn't want to make the children worry, so she just pretended not to see it!

Xia Wanniang hugged Lai Fu and asked, "What happened?"

Lai Fu: The Saker Falcons flew out to play, and when they got outside the pass they saw a large group of people gathering towards the northwest.

Xia Wanniang hurried back to the tent and wrote a letter to Xiao Chiye. She watched the Saker Falcon fly away and walked outside the tent: "Xiong Da, notify everyone to set off. We need to get back to North City as soon as possible."

"Yes." Xiong Da immediately went to inform everyone to pack up and set off.

Gu Man could sense the solemnity of her expression: "Madam, has something happened?"

Xia Wanniang looked at Gu Man. They might have to go to the battlefield again this time. "I'm afraid someone is coming from outside the pass."

Gu Man's pupils suddenly shrank. This sentence was not said explicitly, but they all knew what it meant.

The children didn't know why they were suddenly leaving, but they were too quiet to ask any questions and just got on the carriage.

Everyone else was fine after working day and night, but Rouyue started to have morning sickness and didn't feel well.

Xia Wanniang did not stop her journey until she was sure that she was fine. She prepared some sour food for her, which made her feel a lot more comfortable.

When they arrived at the North City, the government office was brightly lit.

Qingfeng was stunned when he saw them: "I thought it would take some time for you to come back."

Xia Wanniang asked Qiuhe to take the children to find Aunt Xiao, and left Rouyue and the others to her for temporary arrangements. She followed Qingfeng and the others into the yamen.

Xu Li leaned back on the chair with a tired face. When he heard the movement at the door, he opened his eyes and looked over: "You are back just in time."

Xia Wanniang sat opposite the two of them: "What's going on now?"

Qingfeng placed some stationery in her hands, which contained news from the capital and news from Xiao Chiye.

She looked at them one by one: "Marriage?"

Xu Li nodded: "They chose Prince Guo's legitimate daughter, who is also his only daughter."

Xia Wanniang didn't know these people in the court, so she could only look at the two of them with confusion.

Qingfeng: "Prince Guo was the youngest son of the late emperor. After Your Majesty ascended the throne, he joined the army and served under General Xiao for several years. Later, he went to guard the south. He died in battle fifteen years ago. The princess committed suicide for love and left behind only a daughter, who was raised in the palace and named a princess."

Xu Li: "Your Majesty dotes on Princess Ling'an out of gratitude to Prince Guo, and all of Prince Guo's properties are in her name as her dowry."

Xia Wanniang roughly understood: "So the meaning of the border is either marriage or war? Not only do they want all the dowry of Princess Ling'an, but Daxia also needs the dowry of food and fodder, right?"

Qingfeng nodded: "Yes, this is the condition they set."

Xu Li sneered: "What a bunch of bastards, they want to push women out to take the blame when something happens, why don't they let their own daughter go."

It was rare for Xia Wanniang to see him so angry because of a woman, as if this Princess Ling'an was a little different to him!

Qingfeng coughed lightly and said, "There are two factions in the court now, one is for war, and the other is for marriage."

Xia Wanniang looked at the news from Xiao Chiye: It's time to fight.

She was not in a hurry to make a decision: "Master Qing, is there an estimate of this year's grain production?"
