I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

To Shen Yao, the trip to Mi Mountain was imperative.

However, Mi Mountain was a well-known danger, so he would never let Qin Minghong be implicated before he was completely confident.

Therefore, he appreciated Qin Minghong’s good intentions.

Zheng Rongrong’s visit broke Ji Zhao’s strange and heavy mood. In addition, she did not want Shen Yao to worry, so she had already thought it through.

What happened in that nightmare did not happen yet. If she started to be afraid now, she would be too useless.

“Shen Yao.” Ji Zhao walked to his side with a smile, her eyes as gentle as water. “I want to go to Mi Mountain.”

“No.” Shen Yao subconsciously refused. “Zhaozhao, you…”

“Shen Yao, I want to defeat my inner demon,” Ji Zhao interrupted him. She looked into his eyes and said seriously, “I can’t be afraid just because of a dream. Besides, you will accompany me, right?”

Shen Yao frowned and refused.

Until Ji Zhao suddenly smiled and said, “Only when we’re husband and wife can we be united.”

“Okay.” Shen Yao really could not win against her, so he could only nod helplessly. “But Zhaozhao, 1 need to make some arrangements. Shall we set off for Mi Mountain tomorrow morning?”

“Yes, 1’11 listen to you.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently. Before she turned around, she said, “But Shen Yao, if you dare to secretly set off alone without telling me, 1’11 ignore you forever…”

Shen Yao, who had just thought of this, shook his head helplessly. “Zhaozhao, don’t worry. I won’t.”

On the other side, Zheng Rongrong, who had obtained the shuttlecock, returned to the Zheng residence happily.

Seeing her daughter smiling so happily, Eldest Madam Zheng felt happy from the bottom of her heart.

“Mother, let’s set my birthday banquet at the Spring Breeze Pavilion, shall we?” Zheng Rongrong, who was sweating profusely from playing, walked towards her mother with a smile. Her hands wrapped around her arms intimately as she said with a beaming smile, “Sister Ah Tao is really too good. I like her very much. Mother, let’s book a few more banquets at the Spring Breeze Pavilion, okay?”

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll listen to my Rongrong!” As someone who indulges her daughter infinitely, how could Madam Zheng reject her daughter’s suggestion?

However, many years later, Madam Zheng was extremely glad that she had listened to her daughter back then. Not only had she protected the Zheng family’s bloodline, but she had also led the Zheng family to a more prosperous level.

“But Mother, I think Big Brother doesn’t like Sister Ah Tao very much…” Zheng Rongrong nestled in her mother’s arms and muttered softly, “Big Brother won’t bully Sister Ah Tao, right?”

After all, in Yunchuan Prefecture, Zheng Li was indeed someone who could do whatever he wanted.

Zheng Li was the eldest son of a concubine of the Zheng family. Although he had entered the business world, Zheng Hui still had high hopes for this eldest son. Otherwise, how could the eldest son of a concubine stabilize his position as the second richest businessman in the prefecture in just seven years?

“Speaking of which, your big brother is not young anymore.” Madam Zheng lowered her eyes to hide the thoughts in her eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of disappointment in her tone.

That night, Madam Zheng personally brewed a pot of Official Zheng’s favorite sweet soup and walked into Zheng Hui’s study.

After the couple conversed for a while, Zheng Hui felt that he should consider marriage for his eldest son.

“Married?” Zheng Li was a little surprised. He had never thought of this.

After all, ever since he had come of age, he had no lack of women around him.

However, he was not against getting married.

Peach Plossom Cottage.

Ji Zhao was a little surprised to hear that Eldest Young Master Zheng was about to get married.

“Sister All Tao, my mother said that the elder sister of the Lu family is a very good-tempered person. Perhaps Big Brother will change after marrying a wife!” Zheng Rongrong said with a smile as she ate a cream puff. “By the way, my mother also said that Big Brother won’t do anything to the Spring Breeze Pavilion anymore.”

“Why is Madam Zheng so sure?”

Ji Zhao was even more puzzled. The development of the matter was completely inconsistent with her dream!

If Zheng Li married someone else, there would be no need for her and Shen Yao to go to Mi Mountain anymore, right?

“I don’t know either. That’s what my mother said.” Zheng Rongrong shrugged helplessly. “But Sister Ah Tao, you don’t have to worry too much. My mother is a person who keeps her word.”

Time flew. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of October.

Autumn was getting thicker, and the city of Yunchuan Prefecture was covered with withered leaves of parasol trees.

With Madam Zheng’s secret support, Spring Breeze Pavilion’s business was getting better and better.

After discussing with Qin Minghong, Ji Zhao decided to open another restaurant.

“This roasted meat is really delicious.” Qin Minghong was full of praise. “1 can already predict how prosperous our business will be when our restaurant opens!”

In Qin Minghong’s eyes, these roasted meat were simply white silver!

“I heard that Brother Qin has already made arrangements for Yangzhou. Shouldn’t Brother Qin set off now?” Shen Yao placed the roasted beef in the bowl in front of Ji Zhao and raised his head to look at Qin Ming.

The roasted meat in his mouth suddenly lost its fragrance—

Qin Minghong sighed faintly. “That’s right. Speaking of which, we should set off in the next two days. Aren’t I just thinking of the restaurant, though? But then again, Ah Tao, I’ll have to trouble you with the restaurant’s matters in the future.”

“It’s fine.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly. “It’s my honor.”

At the beginning of November, it was actually snowing in the prefecture capital.

After Ji Zhao and her husband sent Qin Minghong off, they went back to their work.

After the new year, Shen Yao would go to the capital to participate in the Spring Quarter Examinations.

This also meant that it was time to settle the grudge between Shen Yao and the Sun family.

Ji Zhao knew that there was not much she could do. The only thing she could do was to display her strengths and accumulate wealth. Only then could she help Shen Yao at the most critical moment.

In the blink of an eye, it was winter. In the kitchen of Peach Blossom Cottage, a pink figure was busy.

During this period of time, Shen Yao had lost a lot of weight in preparation for the Spring Quarter Examination next year.

Ji Zhao saw this and her heart ached.

It would be Laba in two days. Ji Zhao originally wanted to return to Shanghe Village, but when she saw Shen Yao reading day and night, she did not end up opening her mouth.

“Shen Yao, I made some Tianma J Pigeon Soup.” Ji Zhao walked to his side and called out gently, “Why don’t you rest first?”

“Okay.” Shen Yao put down the book in his hand and looked up at Ji Zhao with a gentle smile.

A moment later, the couple held hands and sat on the soft mattress. Shen Yao rubbed her shoulder and sighed softly. “The situation in the capital is not optimistic now.”

“Huh?” Ji Zhao was very surprised. “Capital city?”

“Yes.” Shen Yao nodded slightly and looked at the quiet starry sky outside the window. “I heard that His Majesty is seriously ill…”

When Ji Zhao heard this news, he was very stunned. “How do you know… His Master is seriously ill?”

“Zhaozhao, do you want to hear a story?” Shen Yao suddenly turned around and looked into her eyes. He smiled slightly. Those eyes were as bright as the stars, making Ji Zhao a little dazed.
