Chapter 116 Changes
Xiao Yining's brother, now the crown prince, no longer visits her as often as before. After all, being a crown prince means there are too many things to do.
Her father, now the emperor, had no time to care about her and the number of times he came to see her was very few. However, her father never cared much about her, otherwise, how could he let her stepmother and her children bully her so much.
Now there are more people in the harem, and it is said that there is a stunningly beautiful concubine to accompany him every night.
Everyone has their own life trajectory.
Everything seems to have changed, but it also seems like nothing has changed.
The eldest lady does various researches every day tirelessly.
Los Angeles is becoming more and more prosperous.
The emperor's palace became more and more magnificent, and more and more things were sent to the manor.
On a stormy night, the eldest lady stopped research and development.
All the methods in the books had been used up. Zhang Xianxian thought that the eldest lady would go to that place again, but she didn't.
One day, two days, three days...the prince and the emperor could no longer sit still.
The prince came over first, "Sister, why haven't you sent any new things recently?"
"I'm a little tired and don't want to do it anymore." Xiao Yining said, looking at the white clouds in the distance. The white clouds looked a bit like a flower.
The prince thought his sister just wanted to relax. "You have worked hard these past few years. It's time to take a good rest. Tell me if you need anything. If you want to go somewhere to relax, you can also tell me. I will ask my sister-in-law to go with you."
Xiao Yitang married Qi Xinya. At the wedding, the eldest lady looked at him from afar and saw that Qi Xinya was smiling happily, so she felt relieved.
Zhang Xianxian knew that double-sided embroidery had indeed been very popular in recent years, especially the one embroidered by the Crown Princess, which was worth a fortune. While the young lady was working day and night to complete her research, Zhang Xianxian had gone to the city to take a look several times.
Los Angeles has changed a lot. The things researched by the young lady are sold everywhere. Of course, those itching powders and the like are no longer available. Instead, there are only things to improve life, such as glassware, anthracite stoves, etc.
Even the city walls were reinforced with cement developed by the eldest daughter, and the same was true for the roads, making it much easier for carriages and horses to travel.
The whole city is thriving.
The clinic also began to use instruments such as syringes to better help patients. Zhang Xianxian knew that all this was brought about by the eldest lady.
After the eldest lady had rested for half a year, the emperor could no longer sit still and came to see what the eldest lady was doing, but his secret guards hiding beside the eldest lady had already reported everything in detail.
"Ningning, you look much better recently. Do you feel comfortable living here? Do you want me to move you to a more beautiful farm?" Zhang Xianxian took a quick glance and saw that the emperor looked much older.
"No need, I feel very comfortable living here." The eldest lady said calmly.
"Then I'll find a few people to keep you company. You're too lonely here."
Zhang Xianxian complained in her heart that the eldest lady had been here for so long and she was only starting to show concern now. This was too much!
"No need. It's not boring with Ah Chu accompanying me. Besides, I'm used to it. If a few more people come now, I guess we won't be able to talk to each other." The eldest lady fiddled with the flowers in her hand and said lightly.
The emperor still had some hope, "Shuhua, do you have a lover? I remember that when you were young, you had a good relationship with the son of Minister Wang. He is still single. Do you want to meet him?"
"No need for that. I don't have anyone I like right now. If you need me to marry a foreign princess, or have any marriage for profit, then I will have to stay with the ancient Buddha under the green lamp all the time." Xiao Yining said directly.
"How could that be? You are my favorite daughter. How could I be willing to use you to exchange for benefits? Nothing is more precious than you. You must never think of your father like this."
"Okay, if there is nothing else, you can go back. I'm a little tired and want to take a nap." The eldest lady put down the flowers in her hand, turned around and walked into the room.
The emperor was left with a dazed look on his face. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhang Xianxian standing beside him, he said, "Take good care of Princess Shuhua. If anything happens to her, you can ask her."
"promise."
The emperor turned around and left helplessly. The relationship between father and daughter was already weak, and now it was at the end of its strength.
However, no one knows what the prince has been doing in the past six months, and he has not come to see the eldest lady once.
The eldest lady didn't seem to care about all this. She got up on time and ate on time every day. Apart from these two things, she just sat in a daze and didn't talk. Zhang Xianxian felt that her language system would degenerate sooner or later.
I chat with Xiaobu from time to time, and I really don’t know what the eldest lady is thinking.
Later, Zhang Xianxian learned that after the prince returned from here, he was put in solitary confinement for half a year, just like the previous prince.
However, this prince did not commit any crime. The only thing he did was probably making his father unhappy.
The Crown Princess came to Xiao Yining several times and asked her to help plead with the Emperor, but the eldest lady had never met her once.
Seeing the Crown Princess crying in tears at the beginning, and then hatred slowly starting to show in her eyes, and later she even started to make threats. Unfortunately, none of her actions showed the appearance of a begging young lady.
"No." These two words became a thorn in the Crown Princess' heart.
"Miss, the Crown Princess is really persistent." Zhang Xianxian spoke cautiously.
"That has nothing to do with me." The eldest lady took a sip of tea.
"I'm afraid that the relationship between the eldest lady and the prince may not be very good in the future." Zhang Xianxian refilled the eldest lady's tea.
"That's not good. The royal family is inherently ruthless." The eldest lady continued indifferently.
I haven't taken the young lady to exercise for a long time. However, judging from her mood, I guess she is not interested in anything now.
Out of concern and care for the young lady, she still spoke, "I haven't practiced martial arts for a long time. I feel that my whole body is a little loose, and my arms are thicker."
The eldest lady then shifted her gaze from the distance to Zhang Xianxian, "She has indeed gained a lot of weight."
Zhang Xianxian was choked, "Miss, you are making fun of me again."
"No, that's the truth. Let Forrest Gump continue to teach you starting tomorrow."
"Miss, please come along. It will be boring to be alone. Besides, I'm a little afraid of Forrest Gump." Zhang Xianxian probed carefully.
