After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

Chapter 217 A sudden visit

"However, we can invite the princess to the general's mansion for a meal so she can taste how her elder sister's cooking is."

Realizing that his tone had been a bit harsh and fearing that he might offend the people from the princess's residence, Xue Li quickly tried to smooth things over.

The General's Mansion was already in a very difficult situation, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble for his father.

Furthermore, within the academy, only Xu Zijun and Gu Mingcheng dared to ignore Wang Yuchen's threats and play with him; he cherished their friendship as classmates.

"Then this princess will reluctantly agree."

Princess Qingyue's eyes lit up, and she proudly raised her head and puffed out her chest, readily agreeing.

"Then we must make it clear first: when Second Sister goes to the General's Mansion, she cannot compete with Jun'er for food, and she certainly cannot eat the food of three people by herself and finish all the dishes."

Xu Zijun was still very happy that Xue Li was willing to invite her second sister to the General's Mansion for a meal, but she had to say something unpleasant beforehand, because her second sister was really capable of doing it.

"You brat, are you asking for trouble? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Princess Qingyue put her hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at the disobedient little boy in front of her, her face full of threat.

"Hehe, Jun'er is joking with her second sister."

A wise person knows when to yield, Xu Zijun shrank her neck and smiled ingratiatingly.

Princess Qiling had gifts prepared and personally escorted the person to the gate of the mansion. She stared blankly at the carriage that gradually disappeared into the distance, lost in thought.

"Granny Qi, have someone investigate Miss Xue's background."

His voice was authoritative and cold, a stark contrast to his previous gentleness, as if he were a completely different person.

As a princess of the Chu-Qin Kingdom, she was not immune to being schemed against. It wasn't that she didn't trust the General Zhenguo's Mansion, but rather that she didn't trust this suddenly appearing Miss Xue and had to be on guard.

"Yes, princess."

Granny Qi lowered her head and replied.

The snow fell heavily, drifting down like willow catkins, and the distant mountains were covered in snow.

The world was a pristine white, and the whole world became quiet and peaceful.

The winter plum blossoms in the General Zhenguo's Mansion were also bent over by the weight of the snow, and snowflakes occasionally slid off the branches, making a soft sound.

In stark contrast to the silence outside, the General Zhenguo's Mansion was bustling with activity.

Three exquisite carriages stopped in front of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. Xue Li led Xu Zijun, Gu Mingcheng, and Princess Qingyue, who had come along, into the front courtyard.

In the main hall of the General's Mansion, Old Madam Xue looked at the colorful fruits and vegetables on the table with a calm and kind expression. The younger generation did not have to restrain themselves and ate the fruits and vegetables on the table, chatting and laughing, making it a lively scene.

The manor hadn't been this lively in a long time, which made the old lady extremely gratified.

"Madam, Princess Qingyue has arrived."

Upon receiving the servant's report, Granny Fang hurriedly ran to the main hall and whispered in Old Madam Xue's ear.

"what?!"

Old Madam Xue suddenly stood up from her chair. Why would Princess Qingyue come to the manor?

The General's Mansion and the Princess's Mansion usually have no contact, so why did he suddenly come to the mansion today?

"Madam, what's wrong?"

Princess Lingjun was enjoying a sweet and sour pineapple when she heard her two daughters-in-law chatting and laughing. Seeing her mother-in-law behaving strangely, she quickly put down the pineapple and asked gently.

"Princess Qingyue has come to the manor."

"Princess Qingyue?"

Princess Lingjun was also stunned.

"Indeed, the General's Mansion and the Princess's Mansion usually have no contact. There must be something you need for this sudden visit."

Madam Xue looked worried. The General's Mansion had only managed to have a few days of peace and quiet. If something else happened, she really couldn't afford to be disturbed.
