Back at Qingsong Garden, Qin Xiaoning recalled the maid's report and asked Lu Ji, "I heard you want to bring me into the palace, but my elder sister wants to see me?"

Lu Ji said, "She wants to see you, but it doesn't matter a moment. It's getting late today, so let's talk about it another day."

Glancing at Lu Ji's slightly mysterious look, Qin Xiaoning asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Ji said nothing, so she followed up with, "You are deliberately trying to keep me in suspense, aren't you?"

Lu Ji was amused and said, "I can't hide anything from you. There is indeed something wrong, but it's a good thing."

"Prince Xian has requested the title of Princess for you. My elder sister has chosen many titles and will also grant you a Princess's Mansion." Lu Ji said.

Qin Xiaoning couldn't help but be surprised: "Do I recognize them now?"

Lu Ji was amused: "Are you asking me this? Haven't you already accepted it in your heart?"

Qin Xiaoning was silent for a long time, then she asked, "Why is there a Princess's Mansion? Isn't it only the princesses who can be given a mansion?"

"You don't want it?" The man raised his eyebrows.

Qin Xiaoning smiled faintly: "Why wouldn't I want it? I'm just worried that I'm not a good teacher and people will gossip about me."

Lu Ji sat down on the chair, leisurely poured himself a cup of tea, leaned back, and drank it slowly.

Looking at his expression, Qin Xiaoning guessed most of it.

"Did you make an exception and ask for the title of Princess Mansion for me?" she asked Lu Ji.

The man raised his eyes: "You are smart."

Qin Xiaoning sat down opposite her and replied with a smile: "I know that you love me the most."

Lu Ji was amused. He raised his hand and grabbed the hand that was pulling her, pinching it in his palm and playing with it, saying meaningfully, "It's good that you know."

A few days later, Qin Xiaoning's title was announced. Lu Ji helped her choose one from the many titles proposed by the Ministry of Rites, and the name was Changle.

When Lu Ji discussed this with Qin Xiaoning, she was not very satisfied at first, thinking it was a bit shallow, but Lu Ji said: Happiness is the most important thing in life.

He still treated her as a child, and deep down he only hoped that she would be happy and carefree.

Qin Xiaoning thought about it and felt that what Lu Ji said made sense, so she decided on the title "Changle".

With the title of princess, Qin Xiaoning's status became more noble than before.

Although the Regent Princess is respected, she still relies on Lu Ji's honor. Now that she has become a princess, she is a member of the royal family, which is truly noble.

After the enthronement ceremony, Qin Xiaoning took Lu Ji to Prince Xian’s mansion.

Early in the morning, Prince Xian and his wife were waiting for them at the gate of the palace.

After twenty years, their daughter returned again. The couple didn't know how to describe how they felt.

Especially the Princess of Xian, when she saw Qin Xiaoning's carriage coming into view, she hurriedly ran forward to greet them.

Seeing the Xian Prince's wife coming over, Qin Xiaoning stopped the driver. When the Xian Prince's wife saw Lu Ji jump off the carriage first, her expression paused for a moment. Then, she stood on tiptoe and looked into the carriage, saying, "Why is it you? Where's Ah Ning?"

Lu Ji pulled the corner of his mouth, half smiling, without saying a word, he just turned around and helped the people in the car get out.

Before Qin Xiaoning could stand firmly, the Princess of Xian grabbed her hand. Her lips moved, but she could not utter a word. She just kept crying.

Compared to the excitement of the wife of Prince Xian, Qin Xiaoning was much calmer. She comforted the wife of Prince Xian. Prince Xian also came over. He supported his wife and asked his daughter and son-in-law to come into the mansion. Prince Xian was the biological brother of the previous emperor and the direct descendant of the Zhao family. He had the highest status among the princes of the Zhao family, so the rules and regulations of Prince Xian's mansion were naturally the most magnificent.

Even Qin Xiaoning, who had seen the world, was astonished when she stepped into Prince Xian's palace.

Once you enter the backyard, the scenery is even more pleasant. The pavilions and terraces are all exquisite, with exotic flowers and plants planted everywhere. There are small bridges, flowing water, and flying eaves and brown tiles, which perfectly blend beauty and royal dignity.

Ever since she met Qin Xiaoning, the eyes of the Princess of Xian had been glued to her. Now she could see that she liked her own mansion in her heart, so she said to her daughter directly: "If you like it, you can stay here today. We have already decorated your yard. It is elegant and spacious. I guarantee that you will live comfortably."

As soon as Princess Xian said this, Lu Ji turned his head to the side without waiting for Qin Xiaoning to react.

The man's deep eyes turned cold, and he looked at Princess Xian with hostility.

How could Qin Xiaoning not know what her man was thinking? Seeing this, she hurriedly said, "I've been busy at the mansion these past two days, so I can't accommodate you."

The wife of the virtuous prince said anxiously, "No matter how busy they are, one or two days won't make a difference. Besides, this place is only separated from the mansion by a long street. If there is really an emergency in the mansion, they can just send the butler to report to you. It will be the same if you handle it here."

Princess Xian spoke earnestly, and it was obvious that she really wanted to keep her daughter.

Lu Ji said coldly: "A Ning is not used to living outside."

The man spoke in a stiff tone, and gave Princess Xian a cold look as he said this.

This time, the wife of Prince Xian finally sensed her son-in-law's displeasure, and she also became displeased. However, she didn't know how to respond to her son-in-law, so she just looked at Prince Xian blankly.

Prince Xian looked at his wife, then at his daughter, and finally at his son-in-law, whose eyes were filled with jealousy. He cleared his throat and finally said, "Listen to Ning. Since she doesn't want to stay overnight, she must have her reasons. We should respect her opinion."

Seeing that her husband was not on her side, Princess Xian was unwilling to give in. She wanted to speak, but was suppressed by the look in her husband's eyes.

The prince's palace covered a vast area, and the group walked for a long time before arriving at the banquet hall.

This is an independent palace, built on a high platform, which is surrounded by white marble railings. The hall is decorated in a simple and elegant style, with floor-to-ceiling mahogany carved windows on all sides. It is now the warm spring season, so the large windows are all open. Sitting in the hall, looking down from a high vantage point, you can see the colorful flowers, the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

The Princess of Xian sat down next to Qin Xiaoning and explained to her, "This is where our family has family banquets. If you like, we can eat here in the future."

Prince Xian smiled and agreed, "The princess likes this place the most. When she learned that you were coming, she specified that the banquet should be held here."

Qin Xiaoning smiled and replied, "It's great here, I like it very much."

Hearing their daughter say that she liked it, Prince Xian and his wife were very happy, especially the Princess, who was so happy that she seemed to be about to cry. She kept saying, "A Ning, this is your home. If you like it, no matter what it is, we will bring it to you."

Lu Ji, who had been sitting aside with a gloomy face enjoying the scenery, turned his head and looked at Qin Xiaoning, saying in a calm voice: "A Ning, if you like something, is there anything you can't get?"

Yes, as long as she likes it, whether it is jade, antiques, or rare treasures, she can get it.

Lu Ji will satisfy her in every way.

Men have always spoiled her, and now she has the love of her biological parents as well. Everyone is vying to be nice to her.

But being spoiled too much can also be troublesome. For example, right now, her husband is competing with her biological mother again.

Princess Xian was already very unhappy after being rebuked by her son-in-law outside just now. Now seeing him coming to stop her from doting on her daughter, Princess Xian could no longer hold back.

"A Ning is my biological daughter. Is there anything wrong with me being nice to her and doting on her? I just don't understand why you can't stand us being nice to An Ning." The Princess of Xian looked at Lu Ji with jealousy in her eyes.

Qin Xiaoning was worried that Lu Ji would say something rude again, so she quickly took over and said, "The princess treats me well, how could my husband not be happy? But he is telling the truth. For so many years, I have lived a life of luxury in the mansion, and I really have everything I need." (End of this chapter)
