Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

Shitou's family did not have an easy life in Liujia Village, because the people in the village were rather xenophobic and you would meet a relative almost every three steps you took, but Shitou's family lived alone.

This situation caused them to be vaguely isolated and excluded, and the old couple naturally felt dissatisfied and aggrieved.

They eagerly hope that an outstanding talent will emerge in the family to change the status quo.

However, they were disappointed that neither their sons, daughters nor grandsons had any particularly outstanding talents.

But the Shi family, who have little knowledge, just accept the status quo.

Especially Shitou, who was introverted, not good at speaking, and only knew how to work hard, and gradually became the subject of discussion among the villagers.

Now, with Hexi's affirmation, the old man finally put his worries aside.

He said to Hexi: "Although my grandson is a little stupid, he is honest, reliable, and hardworking. If Your Highness needs anyone, just tell him to do it."

He Xi responded with a smile, "Don't worry." Then she sent someone to escort the grandparents and grandchildren out of the palace, feeling happy.

This encounter with the grandfather and grandson gave Hexi new inspiration. She realized that she had been looking for knowledgeable people who had already become famous, but in fact, few people could become successful completely through self-study.

Even if one has talent, if one lacks the proper environment and breeding ground, he or she may eventually become unknown and lost in the crowd.

Therefore, she decided to expand the scope of her search, not just focusing on already famous talents, but also actively looking for those who have potential but have not yet been discovered, and give them opportunities to grow.

In this way, perhaps more talents will stand out and contribute to the country's development.

Her salesian home is a good vehicle. Since she can’t find ready-made talents, she will cultivate talents.

Fu Kang'an has been going out early and coming back late these days. He and Yongqi are busy dealing with the flood in Jiangling, and he even has little time to meet Hexi.

He couldn't help but think of what He Xi said, that the decline of a dynasty must have precursors, one of which is frequent natural disasters.

Fu Kang'an sighed and said that he could only do his best in the situation.

It was always very late when he returned home, but when he saw the lights of the princess's mansion, a warm feeling would surge in his heart.

Now when Fukang'an returns to the princess's mansion it's just like returning to his own home, without any sense of restraint.

He pushed open the door, walked into the room, and saw He Xi standing in front of the window, looking at the bright moon outside. The moonlight sprinkled on her, like a fairy descending to earth.

He Xi stood quietly, looking at the bright moon outside the window with a dazed look, thinking to himself, it's another full moon.

Although they live in different time and space, perhaps they are looking at the same moon at this moment?

As time went by, her memory of the modern world became increasingly vague, as if it were just a distant dream.

The former He Xi was very afraid of losing her memory of the modern world, and she was worried that she would forget the former He Xi.

But now, she has let it go. She finds that she is getting more and more adapted to this era, and everything here makes her unable to give up. In this case, she should cherish the time in front of her.

Perhaps, a hundred years later, she will have a chance to return to the place she once knew well. But before that, she will try her best to help this place, which is equivalent to her hometown, get rid of its difficulties and revive it.

Although the power of one person is small, she is willing to make efforts to try to change the predetermined trajectory of her destiny. Even if the future is uncertain, she will not stop.

Fu Kang'an slowly walked behind He Xi and gently hugged her tightly in his arms. He closed his eyes, feeling the warmth coming from his chest, and gradually felt a little more at ease.

At that moment, he thought He Xi was as ethereal as a fairy, which made him feel flustered. It seemed that in the next second, she would ascend to heaven and leave him.

Fortunately, He Xi was still by his side.

"Yao Lin? What happened?" He Xi's hand gently covered Fu Kang'an's hand, keenly aware of his uneasiness.

"It's nothing. Xier, I just feel very lucky to have you." Fu Kang'an said in a low voice, with a hint of indescribable emotion in his voice.

He Xi couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Maybe you are the only one who thinks I am so beautiful."

Perhaps this is what is called beauty in the eyes of the beholder. Although He Xi is a confident woman, she also knows that she is not perfect. Every decision she makes cannot be guaranteed to be absolutely correct. She can only say that she has a clear conscience.

But Fukang'an thought that everything about Hexi was good and was always generous in praising her.

"How is the flood issue being handled?" He Xi asked seriously after laughing for a while.

When a flood hit Jiangling, which was rare in many years, the imperial court immediately sent people to provide disaster relief.

Fu Kang'an and Yongqi were in charge of post-disaster relief work. They were so busy these days that Yongqi didn't even have time to feel sad about the passing of time.

"Xi'er, you said that the decline of a dynasty must be accompanied by natural disasters and man-made disasters..."

He Xi and Fu Kang'an looked at each other in silence for a long time. She could guess what he was thinking.

Indeed, although the current situation is grim, it is undeniable that the Qianlong Dynasty was in a period of prosperity, and the Kangxi and Qianlong eras of prosperity were not in name only.

He Xi shook his head gently and said, "Yao Lin, now is not the worst time, but we must not take it lightly and must prepare for a rainy day."

Then, He Xi elaborated on her recent ideas in detail. Although cultivating talents seems simple, it is actually full of difficulties.

Fu Kang'an listened quietly to his wife's endless words, his eyes always fixed on her. At this moment, He Xi seemed to be emitting a dazzling light.

"Yao Lin, what do you think?" He Xi eagerly looked forward to Fu Kang'an's affirmation and support.

"Well, but it is still very difficult to implement." Fu Kang'an objectively pointed out He Xi's difficulties.

He Xi took a deep breath and calmed down. How could she not know the benefits of education? As a person in power, how could she not know it? But it is also easy to understand why it is not popularized.

It's nothing more than that the cost is too high and the effect is minimal, and more importantly, it is easier to manage by keeping the people ignorant.

All I can say is that He Xi’s idea is just an idea, at least it is difficult now.

"Yao Lin, it's difficult to return, but not impossible." He Xi said firmly.

Fu Kang'an was not surprised because he knew He Xi's character. It was never He Xi's style to give up easily, and it was this tenacious and loving He Xi that he loved.

"I can do anything you need me to do." Fu Kang'an expressed his support without hesitation and stood firmly on Hexi's side.
