Chapter 7 — In this life, I won't fight anymore, I will personally bring White Moon Light back to the Marquis' Palace

In this world, nothing is that easy.

“Xuan Dao,”

I calmly opened my mouth.

"Go tell them, 'Mr. Tinh' said that she has no father, no mother, no husband, no children. They have recognized the wrong person."

"If you still refuse to leave, report to the officials and say they intentionally caused trouble in front of the door."

“Miss…”

Xuan Dao was somewhat reluctant. My voice is cold, disobeying orders is not allowed. Xuan Dao sighed, held an umbrella and went downstairs. I watched her convey every word I said, without missing a word, to the other three people. I saw their faces at that moment as white as ashes. That feeling of being completely abandoned made them look like three young animals abandoned in the wind and rain. But in my heart, there was no wavering at all. In my previous life, when I died right in front of them, my despair was a hundred times more intense than theirs now. They refused to leave, stubbornly kneeling like that. The rain became heavier and heavier, as if it wanted to wash away the whole world. I closed the window, blocking out all the noise outside. I return to the table and continue to complete the unfinished recipe. Time, little by little, passes. I don't know how long it's been, when suddenly the sound of neat horse hooves and a loud singing voice rang out outside.

“The Holy Order has come——”

My heart stirred, I immediately stood up and went downstairs. I saw at the beginning of the alley, a group of soldiers opening the way. A eunuch in charge of the palace, holding high a scroll of bright yellow sacred scrolls in both hands, surrounded by a group of officials, headed straight towards "Tinh An Cu". The three Luc family brothers kneeling on the ground, along with Luc Than in the carriage, were all stunned on the spot. They didn't understand why people from the palace suddenly came to such a small village. The chief eunuch didn't bother to glance at them, he walked directly in front of me, opened the holy book, his voice resounded clearly:

“Feng Tian inherited the fortune, the Emperor decreed:

Incense maker Tinh Thi, with outstanding skills and impeccable virtue, the incense 'Nguyet Lac' crafted by her, has contributed to the society. I am very satisfied. Specially conferred on you the position of Military District Security, assigned a Military District palace in the capital, one thousand taels of gold, one hundred pieces of brocade. Khanh, please focus on industry and continue to do your best for the country. Kham try ——” District Security Army! Those four words, like a heavenly thunder, exploded in everyone's ears. I, Hua An Ninh, am no longer Mrs. Vinh An Marquis, no longer anyone's wife, nor anyone's mother. I have an independent status and a title conferred by the Emperor. I, myself, become a household. I knelt down and bowed my head in thanks:

“Goddess Hua An Ninh, bow your head to thank Your Majesty for your heavenly grace.”

I intentionally emphasize the three words Hua An Ninh. The three Luc family brothers were kneeling on the ground, their bodies trembling violently at the same time. Finally, they also received the most accurate answer. Mr. Tinh is Hua An Ninh. It's too late. The chief eunuch placed his holy finger in my hand, then smiled amiably and handed over another piece of land contract, saying that His Majesty's palace rewarded the district military located in the Vermillion Bird, not far from the royal palace, and His Majesty also instructed the district military to move in at any time. I accepted the contract, looked calm, nodded slightly and said yes public trouble. From beginning to end, I never glanced at the three people kneeling in the rain once. They knelt there, begging for their "mother" to return home. But the emperor's decree completely separated "Hua An Ninh" from that house, completely and permanently. Compared to any rejection, this is more cruel and more decisive. I saw Luc Than finally jump down from the carriage. He staggered towards me, wanting to reach out and grab me, but was mercilessly stopped by the army in front of him.

“An Ninh… An Ninh!”

He looked at me, his eyes filled with blood and desperate pleading. I just calmly looked back at him. Then, in front of everyone, I gently knelt down and performed an impeccable ceremony, the ceremony of the district military to the marquis.

“Vinh An Marquis, long time no see.”

At that moment, I saw all the light in his eyes, completely extinguished.
