Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo did not pay any more attention to the scumbag father and the Xiao Family.
On this day, Taoist Master Changqing, who was heading to the western regions, came to the capital.
He had once helped King Jin, but because he owed King Jin a favor, he managed to escape in time.!!
Before he left for the western region, he had stayed in Heyang County for a while. Although he was much older than Xiao Hanzheng, they had become good friends.
Therefore, when he came back from the western regions, he not only brought a detailed map of the North City and the western regions, but also some of the technology and culture of the western regions.
He had heard about the overseas affairs in North City, so he was very interested.
This time, he came to the capital to see if he could get on a boat to sea. He also wanted to travel overseas.
Whether it was a visit between friends or when he needed Xiao Hanzheng’s help on the sea, he came to visit Prince Liang’s mansion as soon as possible.
Xiao Hanzheng was still in the Ministry of Revenue. Shi Qingluo heard from the housekeeper that Taoist Master Changqing was here to visit, so she asked the housekeeper to invite him in.
She was familiar with Taoist Master Changqing.
Shi Qingluo landed in the main hall to meet Taoist Master Changqing. Compared to a few years ago, Taoist Master Changqing was more otherworldly than before.
She stood up and greeted, “Long time no see, Taoist Master Changqing!” “Long time no see, Princess!” Taoist Master Changqing smiled.
After he sat down, he sized up Shi Qingluo. “Princess, have you been sleeping a lot recently? Do you often feel absent-minded?”
He had never seen through Princess Fu Bao’s face before, but now he suddenly realized that her face showed a kind of death aura, which made him very surprised.
The face that Shi Qingluo gave him now was very similar to the legendary otherworldly person.
Shi Qingluo was not surprised by Taoist Master Changqing’s question. After all, not only was this Taoist Master proficient in Qimen Dunjia, but he was also very proficient in metaphysics.
“It’s indeed like what the Taoist priest said recently,” she nodded.
Taoist Master Changqing looked at Shi Qingluo carefully again. He thought about it and said truthfully, “Princess, I’ll tell you the truth. Your soul is very unstable right now, and it feels like it might disappear at any moment.”
“If this continues, you might die young.”
His words were more tactful. Otherwise, looking at Shi Qingluo’s face, the death aura was getting stronger and stronger. She would not be able to live past this month.
Shi Qingluo realized that Taoist Master Changqing was indeed amazing. He could even tell that her soul was unstable. She sighed and said, “I have some feelings in my heart, but I don’t know what to do.”
Taoist Master Changqing pondered for a moment. “I can draw a talisman that stabilizes the soul. Perhaps it can help the Princess.”
“You’re not sick. As long as your soul is stable, you won’t die young again.”
Shi Qingluo was stunned. She obviously did not expect the Taoist priest to Imow how to draw such a talisman.
She looked pleasantly surprised. “Then I’ll have to ask for your help.”
After living in ancient times for so many years, she also had a lot of reluctance.
It was mainly because of her little husband and the two little ones. They had long established deep feelings with the people around them, unlike her who had relatives in the modern world.
Therefore, she felt that it would be great if she could die of old age in ancient times. Her little husband would definitely be happier.
“Jinyu and I are friends regardless of age. Since the Princess has this intention, I will definitely do my best.” Taoist Master Changqing smiled.
Shi Qingluo’s face was filled with gratitude. “Thank you, Taoist priest!”
The two of them chatted for a while more, and Shi Qingluo arranged for Taoist Master Changqing to stay in the guest house.
When Xiao Hanzheng came back, she told him about it.
Xiao Hanzheng’s eyes lit up. “That would be great.”
It would be best if his wife could stay.
After all, there were many family and friends here that he could not let go of.
Shi Qingluo took the initiative to hug Xiao Hanzheng. “Yes, so I can stay here with you until we grow old.”
Xiao Hanzheng held his wife in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness. “Okay!”
Xiao Hanzheng went to invite Taoist Master Changqing to join them for dinner, but he turned him down because he was still drawing talismans.
Xiao Hanzheng did not disturb him.
The next morning, Taoist Master Changqing gave Shi Qingluo the talisman that he had painstakingly drawn.
“Princess, wear the talisman and your soul will gradually stabilize.”
Shi Qingluo reached out and took the talisman. She felt as if there was a layer of power on it. “Thank you for your hard work, Taoist priest!”
Xiao Hanzheng smiled and cupped his hands at Taoist Master Changqing. “Thank you so much, Taoist Master.”
Taoist Master Changqing waved his hand. “You’re welcome.”
Xiao Hanzheng wanted to repay Taoist Master Changqing.
Then Taoist Master Changqing told Xiao Hanzheng that he wanted to go out to sea and asked for his help.
He had asked the right person about this. Xiao Hanyi was preparing to go out to sea.
Therefore, Xiao Hanzheng put Taoist Master Changqing on the list of people who would go out to sea.
With Taoist Master Changqing around, his brother and his wife’s safety would be more assured.
With his younger brother around, Taoist Master Changqing didn’t need to go out to sea to get a black mark.
Shi Qingluo wore the talisman, and the time she slept every day was no longer as long as before.
Her body was getting stronger and stronger, and she would no longer be out of breath after walking for a while.
When she returned to normal sleep, Shi Qingluo returned to the modern ward for the last time.
Then, she realized that the clock hanging in the room had suddenly stopped.
Shi Qingluo had a feeling that she would only return to the modern world after she died of old age in ancient times.
Moreover, she should be back at this time in the ward.
Her heart relaxed, and her entire person sank into darkness again.
When she woke up again, she had completely returned to normal.
Not long after, the couple received news that Xiao Baili was pregnant.
Shi Qingluo personally went to the High Duke’s Public House to visit her sister-in-law.
She realized that her sister-in-law was very favored in the Public House. Not only did the old madam like her, but the princess wife also liked her very much.
After she became pregnant, she was protected like a giant panda.
The princess wife kept her promise when she was engaged. When her daughter-in-law was pregnant, she did not arrange a room for her son.
A year later, Xiao Baili gave birth to a boy.
When the child was three years old, the couple handed the child to the princess wife and then went to play.
Xiao Hanyi also asked the people who went out to sea to bring back a piece of news. He and the princess wife had also given birth to a son, so they had to postpone their return.
Every year, King Yi would bring Kong Yuelan out to various parts of Daliang to play. He even took her out to the sea once.
After another year, Xi Rui came back with Xiao Baili.
Xiao Baili’s belly grew bigger again. This time, she gave birth to a cute daughter. Both of them were satisfied with having both children.
In the past few years, Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo had founded more than thirty Craftsman Colleges in the country.
Those who graduated from the Craftsman College could basically find a good job, including unmarried and married women.
More than a dozen girls’ schools were established.
Because of this, the status of the women in Daliang had also risen greatly.
Families with better conditions and more open-mindedness would even take the initiative to send their daughters to girls’ schools.
They had also established low-cost elementary schools in various counties of Daliang. As long as the families were not particularly poor, they could attend them.
Xiao Hanzheng had made a series of measures to adapt to the local conditions, which had also made many people rich.
Especially the joint breeding and planting that was promoted were very successful. It almost covered the entire Daliang.
Therefore, the couple had a good reputation among the people.
Xiao Hanzheng had been the Minister of Revenue for ten years before he joined the cabinet and became the youngest cabinet elder in Daliang.
The Emperor was seriously ill, and his body could no longer support him in handling government affairs. He was originally an open-minded Emperor, so he directly gave the throne to the Crown Prince, Liang Hengchen, whom he had carefully nurtured.
After Liang Hengchen took over, he still put Xiao Hanzheng in an important position.
After making his son the Crown Prince, he even asked Xiao Hanzheng to teach him.
Xiao Hanzheng also became the Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince..
