"Since the title has been mentioned, the settlement should also be mentioned." The Queen has always been respected by His Majesty, so she can speak up on non-governmental occasions like this. "Why not mention the settlement for 1,200 households?" , what do you think?"

"What the Queen said makes sense," Emperor Yun Qing immediately agreed.

The importance the emperor and empress paid to Banhua made countless people look at him with suspicion. His Majesty has always been stingy in giving titles. For the legitimate daughters of county princes in the court, the most they can achieve is county princess or county monarch. There are even some royal family members who don’t even have titles. They rely on the annual silver tael, They lived on food and cloth.

Although the court officials felt that the emperor and empress doted on the eldest princess's granddaughter so much, they felt a sense of peace of mind on the other hand.

Why does Your Majesty take care of the Ban family so much? It's because the eldest princess once helped him.

Following an emperor who misses his old love always makes people feel at ease. Who wants to be with an emperor who burns bridges across rivers and hides his bows?

Your Majesty's kindness will be recorded in history books in the future.

After participating in a hunt, Banhua's title increased and his food estate also increased. This was a good thing. So the next day after returning home, all four members of the Ban family ran to the eldest princess's house and told the eldest princess about the incident.

"Your Majesty is in a good mood recently. He even upgraded me twice in a row." Banhua stood beside the eldest princess and made tea for the eldest princess with his own hands. "Even the food has been upgraded."

"It's a good thing that your level has been upgraded," the eldest princess said with a smile on her face as she took the tea made by her granddaughter, "Why do you keep coming to my place these days? Is it because the snacks here are better than those at Hou's Mansion?"

"My granddaughter misses you, so she came to see you." Banhua hugged the eldest princess's arm, "How about you go to the Marquis Mansion to stay for a few days."

"I don't dare live with you two naughty monkeys. There will definitely be no peace for a moment," the eldest princess refused without thinking. "The servants in the princess's mansion are very dedicated. You and your family are all If you miss me, you can come and see me, we are not far apart."

Nine years ago, after the prince-in-law died of illness, she lived alone in the Grand Princess Mansion in the name of commemorating her late husband.

She couldn't bear to leave her son, but she had to do it.

The current emperor is a contradictory person. He always hopes that others will treat him well, but he is also jealous, but he also wants the world to praise him for his kindness. She had watched that child grow up. He thought that no one could understand his thoughts, but he didn't know that she had gone through two generations of emperors, so how could she not be able to understand people.

"Mother..." The Yin family truly respected the eldest princess. When she first married Ban Huai, she had always had a grudge against her due to the influence of external rumors. In addition, her mother-in-law didn't care much about her, and she had a high-status mother-in-law. At that time, she really thought that she had no hope in this life.

Who knows that although her mother-in-law has a noble status, she treats her very well. Although her father-in-law is a military general, he is also a very reasonable and generous person. After her biological mother died of illness and married into the eldest princess's house, she gradually felt the joy of life.

The year her father-in-law died of illness, she saw her mother-in-law looking sad for the first time. Soon after, her mother-in-law let them move into the Hou Mansion, and her mother-in-law lived alone in the mansion of the eldest princess. She always felt that there was something hidden about what happened back then. But she didn't dare to mention it, or even think about it.

After her daughter had that strange dream, she actually felt relieved that the dust had settled.

The title is not important. As long as the family is well, life should not be so difficult in the future.

It’s just mother-in-law...

The mother-in-law did not appear in her daughter's dream, but her daughter had been running here lately. Yin had a vague suspicion in her heart that was not good.

"Daughter-in-law, you have been worrying about Shui Qing and the two children these years. You are tired." The eldest princess held Yin's hand and patted the back of her hand gently. "If it weren't for me, , you should be able to marry a better man than Shui Qing."

"Mother, I am your biological son, your biological son!" Ban Huai looked at the eldest princess helplessly. Other mothers always protect their sons. Why did he become an outsider when he was here?

"If you were not my son, a good woman like Linghui, you would never be able to marry a good woman like Linghui in your life." The eldest princess glared at her son, "Why do you, a man, get in the way when we women are talking?"

Ban Heng, who was next to him, glanced at his father with schadenfreude. As one of the two men with the lowest status in the Ban family, hasn't his father seen the reality clearly at this moment?

"Mother, how can you say that? Mr. Marquis treats me very well. There are many good men in the world, but how many of them care about what I like to eat and what I use?" Yin's heart became more uneasy. , "My biological mother passed away young, and you treated me like a daughter. In my heart, you are not a mother-in-law, but a mother. Please don't say such words in the future. I feel uncomfortable hearing it."

"I don't have a daughter. After you marry, you will be my daughter," the eldest princess smiled gently, "Even if I do have a daughter, I'm afraid it won't be as good as yours."

"Okay, I'm sorry if I don't say these words." The eldest princess took Yin's hand and stood up, "Let's go have lunch. Two new cooks have recently arrived, and their skills are excellent. , you also have a try."

"Okay." Mrs. Yin smiled and looked at the rosy cheeks of the eldest princess, feeling that she was overthinking it.

After the four members of the Ban family stayed at the eldest princess’s residence for two days, they packed their bags and returned home.

Banhua and Yin were riding in a carriage together. Banhua saw that her mother looked a little dazed, and even her sitting posture became much more honest.

"Huahua," Ms. Yin said suddenly, "Why do you often go to Princess Dachang's mansion recently?"

"Huh?" Banhua was stunned for a moment, then shook his head honestly, "I don't know, I just miss my grandmother."

"Then... if you have nothing to do, you can come here for a walk more often," Yinshi smiled, "Your grandmother is deserted even if she stays alone in the princess's mansion. You will definitely be very happy when you go to her home."

The yard where they live has been kept clean and tidy, as if they had never left in the past nine years. The eldest princess was very lively back then. Her father-in-law loved to teach Huahua boxing and kicking skills. The three of them always made her mother-in-law laugh.

Now that the father-in-law has passed away long ago, the four of them have also moved out, leaving the mother-in-law alone in the spacious and lonely princess mansion.

"Okay." Banhua nodded immediately, "I'll bring Brother Heng with me."

"Good boy." Yin smiled and said nothing else. Ever since her daughter had that strange dream, she was worried that her daughter wouldn't be able to bear it, so she didn't want to force her to learn the rules now, just let it be a happy day.

"What an injustice!"

When the Ban family's carriage came to the side, a middle-aged woman wearing a mourning dress and a mourning handkerchief suddenly rushed out. Behind her were two thin and pitiful children, crying and kneeling together.

"What's going on?" Ban Huai opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at the young man and the young man kneeling in front of his carriage, shouting injustice and kowtowing. He suddenly felt his head grow bigger. The guards of the Hou Mansion stopped in front of the carriage, otherwise the three suspicious-looking people would approach the carriage.

"Sir, the women of the common people have been wronged. I beg you to redress the grievances of the women of the common people!"

She held up the paper in her hand, with a big word "injustice" written on it. She didn't know whether the word was written in human blood or animal blood. It looked a little oozing. Ban Huai couldn't help but sit back and asked, "What's going on?"

"Master Qingtian, please save the husband of the living woman. The same county magistrate is looking down on human life, and the officials are protecting each other. The husband of the civilian woman died unjustly!"

Ban Huai coughed dryly and called his attendants, "Where is Tong County?"

"Master Hou, the same county is in Xuezhou," the attendant whispered, "the governor of Xuezhou is Zhao Zhong."

"Zhao Zhong..." Ban Huai squinted and thought for a while, "Isn't that the second son of the Zhao family?"

Chang Sui: "He is the second young master of the Zhao family."

Speaking of it, their family also has a close relationship with the Zhao family. The person who married Huahua Zhizhi back then was the Zhao family's third son. Unfortunately, after the Zhao family's third son passed away, this marriage was naturally no longer mentioned. Over the years, their Ban family and Zhao family still have contact, but the relationship is not as good as before after all.

"My lord!"

Seeing that Ban Huai ignored her, the middle-aged woman cried even more miserably, "Sir, please show mercy and help a group of women!"

"Wait a minute!" Ban Huai cried a lot because of this woman. "If you have any grievance, you should go to the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple."

The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that the other party would reject her directly without even saying polite words.

"I am just an idle prince. I have no real power and my words are useless. Even if I take you to the Yamen, no one will pay attention to me." Ban Huai waved his hand, "Instead of wasting time here, it is better to go to Dali. Knock the grievance drum at the temple gate."

After saying that, without waiting for the middle-aged woman to react, she asked the guards to carry the three people aside and left in a carriage.

The woman who cried out for injustice:......

Onlookers:...

This is the first time I heard a noble say from his own words that he had no real power and that his words were ineffective.

Banhua lifted the curtain and looked at the middle-aged woman being held aside by the guards, who looked like she had not yet reacted. She always felt that something was not right.

"What are you looking at?"

"Look at the person who just complained." Banhua thought for a while, "I think she is a little strange."

"Of course it's strange," Yin sneered. "A woman who is complaining about her late husband must have been in a hurry to get to the capital and look tired. Two children who have lost their father must be in a hurry and sad. Do you think they fit these criteria? ?"

Banhua lowered the curtain: "Then she lied to us?"

"It doesn't matter what she does," Yin said with a very calm expression, "What matters is that we know what she is doing."

"Oh."

Banhua looked enlightened, opened the curtain again, and saw someone riding a horse from the opposite side.

This person has the face of a good girl, her hair is **** with a jade crown, and she is covered in mysterious clothes. The corners of her robe are flowing with light. It turns out that the embroiderer has secretly embroidered auspicious clouds on the corners of her robe.
