When the song ended, Huilan sighed with satisfaction, "It sounds so good."

"Lan'er, are you happy today?"

"Well, I'm happy."

Huilan nodded vigorously.

"Today is your birthday. I thought you might be willing to come out and have a look. I also prepared a gift for you."

Li Chengze took a box from Chang Ji and handed it to her.

"What is this? Oh, today is my birthday. I forgot about it. I am fifteen and have haircut."

Huilan patted her head and then remembered that ordinary girls attach great importance to hairpins, which means that when they become a big girl, they can get married.

"Can you take it apart and see if you like it?"

Li Chengze specially went to the warehouse to pick it up, hoping that she would like this little gift.

The box was opened, and inside was a piece of wood the size of an egg. It looked like it had aged, and had almost turned into stone. It was soft and smooth, and had no shape. It just looked like wood but not wood.

Huilan opened her eyes wide, "Do you know what this is?"

"I don't know, but I think it should be a good thing, because it was during the late emperor's time that the head of Xuanmen took out the mountain-tightening treasure as a tribute to the late emperor, but no one knew how to use it, so they kept suppressing it.

It’s in the warehouse.”

"Oh my god, am I still somewhat lucky? Zelang, you are so good. This is the soul-nurturing tree. It nourishes the soul. Moreover, it is a ten-thousand-year soul-nurturing tree. It has already turned into stone."

She blinked happily, her expression of surprise barely concealed.

"Does this help you?"

Li Chengze asked doubtfully.

"It's a great help. With it, I can repair my soul. It only takes a few years. Zelang, did you really give it to me? This thing is very precious."

"But it's of no use to ordinary people."

"Yes, it is useless to ordinary people. It is only useful to monks and the souls after death."

"So, it's useless for us to come. You just need it to be given to you naturally. I originally thought that this was a tribute from Qingxu Temple, and I thought you should have seen it. I didn't expect that I was really wrong."

Li Chengze knew that this thing was useful to her, and he raised his lips and smiled.

"Ze Lang, thank you, this thing is more precious than any gift."

"As long as I can help you, just keep it and do whatever you want with it."

"Thanks!"

Huilan kept holding the egg-sized stone happily and felt that the soul was very comfortable. She believed that the soul could be repaired in time.

"It's getting late, we should go back."

"Okay, I want to buy some snacks and toys to go back."

"Okay, Changji, you can ask someone to buy more later."

It was getting late, so Li Chengze had to go back early, so he took Huilan back to the palace.

"Ze Lang, can my brother's marriage be settled now?"

"Well, I'll just talk to the old man of the Zhang family later, and then you can just ask the Ding family to send someone to propose marriage."

"good."

Huilan nodded happily, she was very satisfied after meeting the Zhang family siblings, especially her younger brother, who seemed to be well taught, and her elder sister was also gentle, polite, and generous, which showed that the Zhang family's upbringing and family tradition were very upright.

.

She was relieved that a major issue in her heart was solved. The original owner cared most about her grandmother and brother. Her grandmother had passed away, and her maternal ancestor, the Liu family, had been officials for generations. They were very stable and didn't need her to do anything.

My elder brother Ding Simiao is about to take the imperial examination. The most important thing in his life is to settle on a good marriage and hope that the Yue family will be promoted. This is the most important thing.

"Then if my brother becomes famous, Zelang..."

Huilan pulled her sleeves and shook her to plead.

Li Chengze glanced at her, "Do you want your brother to seek a future?"

"No, it still depends on what kind of fame he can get. If he is in the top three, you don't need to work too hard. If he is a little bit lower, you can arrange a position for him to train others and go out.

."

Huilan thought about it and chose the one that was practical but could produce the best results.

"Okay, don't worry, I will take it to heart. This time I went to Jiangnan to investigate corrupt officials because your father proposed that I go to Jiangnan to practice. My father is very satisfied with his proposal."

"Will this investigation of corrupt officials offend anyone?"

Li Chengze sat down and drank a cup of tea, "Of course I will, but as you said before, those in power want fairness and justice, and the overall situation is the most important thing.

I can't quit just because I'm afraid of offending a few officials. So if I plan to reform the court in the future, and the obstacles will be greater, do I have to give up?

I am becoming more and more clear-minded now. Doing things that are beneficial to the court and the people is the best choice for the Li family dynasty.

A qualified prince or king is never a good person."

Huilan gave him a thumbs up in appreciation, "Ze Lang, you are so right, so awesome."

"Of course."

Li Chengze also pursed his lips and smiled.

Chang Ji whispered back at the door, "Your Highness, Yongning Palace sent someone to tell you that the Crown Princess has something to discuss with you."

Huilan raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile, "It seems that the Crown Princess came to disturb our intimacy because she has something very important to do. Then you go ahead. She has to go check it out no matter what she invites."

Li Chengze pursed his lips and his face darkened, "Okay, I'll go take a look. I won't come over tonight. You go to bed early."

"Go ahead and drink this pot of wine. It's good for your health. This wine is for tempering your body. Drinking it all year round will have a good effect."

Huilan has been secretly drinking this wine. It is made from body-tempering elixir. The older it is, the better the effect.

It's a pity that her body is still too weak and she can't bear the strong spiritual energy, so she can only use a variety of methods slowly.

"Okay, I've been using the things you gave me. Do you still have the eye drops? Give me some more so that my eyes won't feel sore when I'm tired from reading. I've always used them."

"Yes, I'll get it for you."

Huilan took a bottle of spiritual spring water and put it on his eyes to make his eyes bright and alert.

She has been using it continuously, and her eyes will become more and more hydrated and bright, and her eyes will be bright and moving.

"Then I'm leaving. I'm going to see if she has anything important to do. Hey! Why am I so tired when I'm with her?"

Li Chengze sighed helplessly.

Huilan pursed her lips and smiled before sending the man out of the house, watching him leave before returning to the house.

"Miss, did the Crown Princess take someone away from your house?"

Qiuyun couldn't believe that the princess would do such a thing.

"Maybe it's because the people below are anxious to encourage you. Or maybe you really have something to say, and it's a holiday."

"Then don't worry about it now. What kind of stupid move is this? It has clearly made enemies for the Crown Princess. Speaking of which, this Crown Princess cannot tolerate others."

Qiuyun smacked his lips and shook his head.

The position of Crown Princess is not easy to fill. The first thing is to be tolerant. After all, you may become a queen in the future, and you will be given not only rights but also responsibilities and obligations.
