Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands Chapter 819 - 762: The Grand Finale (Part 2)

Having t the courtiers and noblewon, Li Yuzhu had already given Chai Eying detailed instructions on how to speak and respond with etiquette while they were on their way to the Capital.

The journey was slow, and every ti they stopped to rest, Princess Consort Luling would personally teach Chai Eying the rules of the Imperial Palace, even demonstrating them herself.

And she had four palace maids accompany them to supervise and instruct.

Chai Eying was very intelligent, learned quickly, and rembered everything firmly.

Now, when faced with the challenging eyes and words of the noblewon, Chai Eying handled them with ease.

The few noblewon who wanted to see Chai Eying make a fool of herself were all surprised and disappointed.

mbers of the Wei Family, due to their commoner status, could only stand far behind the courtiers and noblewon.

Even though their aunt had beco the Empress, according to protocol, without permission, they could not move closer.

Although they couldn’t speak closely with their family’s aunt like ordinary families, the faces of a few masters and mistresses of the Wei Family still radiated with proud smiles.

When the Lu Ling Royal Mansion was banished from the Capital, many saw the Wei family mbers and mocked them, saying the Wei family’s aunt would never return to the Capital and might even starve outside.

At that ti, the Wei family mbers could only hold their anger, unable to refute.

But now, they ca to see their aunt not only didn’t starve outside, but also returned as the Empress.

Li Yuzhu’s gaze swept over the heads of the courtiers and noblewon, looking towards her family.

Her brothers, who lost their official positions, could only stand far away outside the crowd.

They were excited and joyful.

Honest Mr. Wei even lifted his sleeve to wipe his tears.

Li Yuzhu felt very excited inside, smiling slightly, she approached her family, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, sister-in-law, you also ca?"

"Empress, was the journey smooth? It must’ve been hard all the way?" The eldest master of the Wei Family nervously asked.

"It was fine. How is the old madam?" Li Yuzhu showed concern for her mother’s health.

"The old madam was so overjoyed to hear you returned to the Capital that she didn’t take her noon rest and kept asking about the Empress." Second Master Wei smiled.

"Then you all should first return and inform the old madam. Once I’ve seen the Emperor, I’ll co to see her." Li Yuzhu said, smiling at her brothers.

"Yes, yes, we’ll go back right away." Second Master Wei rubbed his hands with delight.

Wonderful, having the Empress in the Wei Family is indeed a grand occasion.

Li Xingmao and Chai Eying brought the children over, "Three uncles, this is my wife, Mrs. Chai, and these are the children."

Chai Eying gracefully nodded to the Wei family mbers, "Hello uncles, hello aunts."

Li Xingmao patted the heads of the three kids, "Co, greet your granduncles and grandaunts."

Li Jixian called out once.

Li Yu echoed.

Guoguo didn’t call out, she blinked her eyes and looked up at Second Master Wei asking, "Second granduncle, where is Seventh Cousin?"

Second Master Wei looked guilty, as his daughter Wei Qiniang hadn’t spoken to him since almost being tricked into marriage by the Yu Wen Family, and recently moved to her maternal grandparents’, and wouldn’t co ho even when people were sent to bring her back.

He laughed awkwardly, "She’s staying with her maternal grandparents, I’ll go bring her back soon to see the Little Commandery Princess."

Guoguo frowned, "You are not allowed to bully her, or to promise her to families again."

Second Master Wei thought to himself, where would he dare now!

Previously warned by Li Yuzhu, now there’s also the brother-in-law Emperor.

Now, with this Little Commandery Princess’ warning too.

Even with ten guts, he wouldn’t dare mistreat his daughter.

"Of course, of course, never," Second Master Wei chuckled awkwardly.

The Imperial Eunuch urged everyone to enter the palace again, and Li Yuzhu bid farewell to her family, leading everyone through the main entrance of the Imperial Palace.

Unlike previous farewells, this ti, the Wei family mbers were exceptionally excited.

After Li Yuzhu and the others walked out of sight, the Wei family mbers enthusiastically returned to the Wei Mansion.

Li Yuzhu had said she wanted to go back to the Wei Family to see the old madam, so preparations needed to be made.

Those courtiers and noblewon, seeing the Wei family so excited, outwardly dismissed it, but inwardly envied them.

.

Li Family entered the palace and first went to see the Empress Dowager.

As Li Yuzhu had said, the Empress Dowager had a temper difficult to deal with, and instead of seeing them, sent the Chief Palace Maid with a ssage saying she was unwell today and invited Li Yuzhu and Chai Eying to speak another day, and that they must be tired from the lengthy journey, so they should return to rest earlier.

Li Yuzhu said to the Chief Palace Maid, "Since the Empress Dowager isn’t feeling well, we’ll take our leave, and co again another day to see her."

Li Yuzhu led everyone out of the Empress Dowager Palace.

The Chief Palace Maid walked to the staircase outside the main hall, watching them leave, and then went to a small annex room in the inner hall.
