courtyard belonged to an official who committed a crime last year. It has been sealed up and not sold. The deed and land title should be at the Ministry of Revenue.”Jia Yin thought for a moment, then...Upon hearing this, the several masters were even more delighted.

It was just a joke, I didn't expect there to be such a big business.

After dinner, everyone took a short break and then continued their work.

The village head strolled into Li's courtyard, and saw the Li family members eating in the main hall, with two maidservants waiting by the door.

Under the eaves, there was a small square table. Jia Yin really held a box and ate potato chips, calling out from time to time.

"Oh, stars and moonbeams, have you hidden well I'm going to start looking!"

The little star, in a sky-blue outfit, hid her head under the drying quilts, showing only her round tummy. She shouted loudly, "Found me, auntie! Come find me!"

In a crimson robe and skirt, the little girl Yuéyá squatted behind the door, covering her face with her small, chubby hand. She whispered in a sweet voice, "Yuéyá is hiding too! Sister can't find me!"

Then, Jia Yin got up, eating as she walked, and began her journey of feigning blindness.

Oh, Xingxing, Yueyaer, where are you I can't find you anywhere!

"You're hiding too well. How can I find you"

"What should I do, I can't find you!"

The chubby boy and the chubby girl listened to the footsteps passing in front of them, but they were not caught.

Thinking she had hidden it cleverly and securely, giggling with delight...

The village head stood at the door, his white beard trembling with laughter.

Seeing Jia Yin finish all the chips in the box, he walked in and playfully tapped her on the head with a smile.

"You've found a playmate, you bully! You're picking on the child!"

Jia Yin smiled brightly and protested, "Grandfather Village Head, you're wronging me! I finished my meal early and have been diligently comforting the child."

Crescent Moon and Star heard the noise, so they ran out and clapped their hands together, shouting.

"Auntie didn't catch us, we won!"

Unfortunately, upon seeing the empty box in Jiayin's hands, they immediately frowned and began to complain.

"Auntie, you cheated and ate the potato chips! We agreed that only the winner could eat them!" The chubby boy's eyes were red with tears.

The little chubby girl also pouted, "Sister, you're mean. You don't keep your word."

Jia Yin blinked her big eyes twice and quickly supported her head, pretending to be weak.

"Oh my, I had a headache just now. Whenever I have a headache, I crave food. Then I accidentally ate all the chips! "

"I'm sorry, Yueya'er, Xingxing. I was wrong!"

The little chubby girl and boy jumped in fright, quickly grabbed Jia Yin's arm, and tried to blow air on her head. "Auntie, the stars are blowing air for you."

"Sister, Yuèyá also sleeps soundly, no pain at all!"

Jia Yin beamed, her eyes sparkling with joy. She embraced two chubby children and showered them with kisses.

"Wow, the sound of the stars and crescent moon is so soothing, my headache disappeared immediately. But the chips are gone, I'll have to eat them next time. "

"So, I'll take you to the greenhouse to pick strawberries and make a strawberry cake for you. How about that"

"Great!" the two children chorused, remembering the soft and sweet cake, they were so happy that they immediately threw the potato chips to the back of their heads.

Jia Yin told the family members in the house, and then she took the children by one hand each and walked away.

Suiling and Shuicun immediately followed.

The village elder walked in and smiled, “The first time I saw the county princess, she was even smaller than a star or a crescent moon. Everyone in the village adored her and loved to play with her.”

In the blink of an eye, the county princess can even help soothe children at home!

"Of course not! Looking at the children, I feel like time flies by so quickly." Lao Li smiled and invited the village head to sit beside her.

Tao Hongying went into the city, and to keep her daughter honest at home, she also took over Baiyun's business, keeping herself very busy every day.

And Zhao Yuru also brought a new maidservant back to Lu'an Town.

The three Jia Ren brothers went to a friend's birthday party and were not at home.

So, today Wan'er and Wenjuan took charge of the chores, quickly instructing the maidservants to tidy up the table. They also served tea and refreshments to the old lady and the village head.

Now the stove in the kitchen is tended to by Tao Hongying's two apprentices, both of whom signed a death pact at Xianke Lai. They are trustworthy and skilled.

Mrs. Li had just enjoyed some delicious food and now inquired about how the master chefs outside and the villagers were finding it.

The village head, of course, showered her with praise and then discussed with the old woman about expanding the village next year.

The elderly love a bustling household, with many children and grandchildren. That's when life is truly vibrant.

Li Laotai readily agreed and asked the village head to inform everyone, tallying up how many families needed new houses.

After the Northern Expeditionary Army returned, Li Yong had nothing to do and planned for the village again.

It's not that I don't feel sorry for Li Yong, but he enjoys this kind of work. If there were no pressure from his family, he might already be a top craftsman at the Heavenly Martial level today.

Unfortunately, fate is a curious thing, often not developing in the direction that everyone likes...

While the Li family was busy, it was another day of grand court on the second day.

Everyone thought it would be as usual, with the Six Ministries squabbling over trivial matters and exchanging verbal barbs, just getting by.

After all, matters of true importance would have already been dealt with in private by the six ministers, who wouldn't need to see the emperor about them.

If this were to be brought up at a grand assembly, with everyone speaking their minds and having different thoughts, it's likely that even after a year, no conclusion would be reached.

Even the Emperor, sitting on his dragon throne, felt bored.

Fortunately, the autumn that just passed was a bumper harvest.

There are always people in the palace who excel at singing praises, just pick a few out and they'll have the emperor beaming with joy.

Just as the atmosphere was harmonious and everyone had begun to ponder their lunch options, Wen Yu Shi stood up and declared loudly, "Your Majesty, I have a petition. The Jiangning Hou Mansion's son committed acts of violence, forcefully robbed a woman, and killed an entire family of five."

There is also the case of the Jiangning Marquis's Mansion, which expropriated five hundred mu of farmland from the people and drove over a hundred peasants away, leaving them homeless.

"Your Majesty, I have petitions from the suffering people here. Please review them."

In the hall, an eerie silence descended. Some couldn't even retract their smiles in time.

After all, just one second ago it was full of joy and happiness, how come the next second switched to a complaining and seeking redress mode!

And the defendant is still the Jiangning Houfu, the empress's mother's family. Is this Wen Yushi crazy

Even if you want to establish a reputation for yourself as someone who is fearless in the face of power and upright, wouldn't picking a fight with the empress's family be a bad idea!

The Emperor also frowned slightly and motioned for Yi, the head eunuch, to present the petition.

He quickly scanned it and then frowned.

The Prince of Jiangning, who was also the emperor's father-in-law, was shocked as well.

It's not just because his son robbed a woman and seized the family's land, it's true.

What's even more concerning is that the person who made the accusations against him is Wen Qinglin himself!

Everyone knows that Wen Qinglin is practically a son to the Li family.

The two assassins in the house haven't returned these past few days, it seems their mission has failed.

He felt sorry for the fallen warriors, but he wasn't too worried.

After all, since death squads are committed to suicide if their missions fail, they definitely won't expose their own side.

But what's wrong with Wen Qinglin now

Could it be that the assassins didn't commit suicide but were captured!

He gritted his teeth in anger and fear, but quickly knelt down and cried out loudly, "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

"My family has always been loyal and law-abiding, never doing anything to violate the laws of heaven and earth, nor betraying Your Majesty's grace."

Wen Yu Shi sneered and retorted, "Wu sir, are you accusing this official of framing your family"

"This official has no grievances with Wu sir, why would I frame you"

"Of course it's for..." Wu Da was about to retort, but he swallowed his words halfway through.
