Aunt Wu served them tea and fruits before leaving. The original owner sent a WeChat message to Xu Mingzhi, saying,

[ “Mom, I want to tell you about switching back…” ]

She didn’t say whether she agreed, but Xu Mingzhi immediately came back.

At this moment, she looked at the original owner without saying a word. Her eyes were red, and her hands were clenched by her sides.

She stretched out her hand to the original owner, and the original owner walked to her. The two of them sat down together again.

In fact, Xu Mingzhi had been thinking a lot these days.

She thought about it every day, day and night.

She wasn’t a meticulous person, but if she was convinced, she could really break this matter apart and shatter it.

Recently, she kept thinking about the time when she first arrived in the modern world.

At that time, the original owner had just arrived in this world.

She didn’t have a previous life, nor would she have the chance to reincarnate. This was her first and only life.

When she opened her eyes and saw the world, the first woman she saw was Xu Mingzhi.

Xu Mingzhi was her real mother.

Such a small girl who had grown up little by little into a beautiful girl.

In the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed.

The interaction between the two of them was forced at first.

However, in these forced days and nights, Xu Mingzhi understood what kind of child her daughter was.

She would stick band-aids on her high heels, compliment her and even stand up to her when she lost her temper, angering her half to death.

“Mom,” the original owner suddenly said. Xu Mingzhi’s unfocused gaze looked at her.

The original owner asked her, “you still want me to go back, right?”

Xu Mingzhi looked at the original owner and did not lie to her. “Yes.” The original owner pursed her lips and smiled.

Just as she was about to continue, she heard Xu Mingzhi continue, “if you always wanted to come back, I wouldn’t say anything. But since you said that you wanted to go back to the Great Shang, it means that there is something you like there…

She let the original owner hear her out first. “I want her to come back here because Pei Huai is here. I want you to go back to the Great Shang, but not by yourself.”

The original owner: “?”

Xu Mingzhi said, “I will go back with you.”

The original owner’s eyes suddenly froze.

She did not expect Xu Mingzhi to say that. She was speechless for a moment and did not know how to respond.

She stood there, staring at her in a daze.

Xu Mingzhi had already made up her mind. She was calm and indifferent. “Of my two daughters, I’m definitely more worried about you. Since you can go back, Lawyer Bian must have a way to make me go back with you. I’ll go back with you. You don’t have to be afraid.”

After a long while, the original owner blinked.

She lowered her head as if to hide some kind of emotion.

Xu Mingzhi said seriously and waited for her reply.

After a full minute of silence, the original owner suddenly smiled.

Xu Mingzhi paused for a moment because her smile just now really looked like her baby.

The original owner smiled and said, “but there’s no place for you there. Your life is over in that era. You can’t go back.”

Xu Mingzhi said, “there must be another way.”

Then, the original owner said, “but I don’t want to go back and still be controlled by you.”

Xu Mingzhi suddenly realized something and looked at her.

The original owner confirmed her guess. “I’ve already spoken to CEO Pei. Tomorrow is an auspicious day and time. Lawyer Bian will prepare the ritual. I want to switch with the Consort Dowager.”

The original owner looked at her with her clear eyes. Although she was joking, she had really thought it through. “It’s better to go back to the Great Shang and be free. This place isn’t suitable for me. I…just want to relax.”

Su Ji got the news from Pei Huai.

It was a little sudden, but the timing was just right.

During this period of time, the abolition of the two-tax system had basically been implemented in the local areas, and it had obtained excellent response.

In the beginning, there was no lack of pedantic ministers in the court who wanted to take advantage of the situation to revolt. They waited covetously, waiting for Su Ji to be in a bad spot. Then, they would stand up and say, “I’ve long said balabala…”

However, after waiting for a long time, they did not get the opportunity they wanted.

On the contrary, with the implementation of the two-tax system, everything was tightly regulated.

All the original policies that were not adapted to the reform were cleverly resolved by Su Ji. This time, not only did the court have the strongest backing, Wang Mian, but even Si Zhengliang was very cooperative.

However, the one who contributed the most was none other than Prince Huai.

The implementation of a new policy always required a selfless and dedicated pioneer.

Prince Huai was one of them.

He had to burn the midnight oil to check the feedback from the local officials and summarize it. Before dawn, he had to report to the court. Not only that, but he also had to go on a business trip every two or three days. There were some things that could not be heard by the local officials. He had to go on a field trip.

Everyone in the court wanted to ask this question. Based on Prince Huai’s talent, it was more than enough for him to declare himself emperor.

Why did he willingly assist the Consort Dowager?

Listening to a concubine’s orders?

What was he planning?

No one could understand, but Wang Mian did.

He said, “he wants the people of the Great Shang to be safe and sound!”

The ministers: ‘

But no matter what, Ning Bianyi and others could not find a reason to revolt. In the end, the minority obeyed the majority. If he could not beat them, he could only join them…

In this way, the reform to abolish the two-tax system was completed.

At this moment, Su Ji received the news that she could return to the modern world the next day.

Pei Huai was very worried.

The timing was too unfortunate.

He had to personally watch over Su Ji’s return, but it had to be tomorrow. Tomorrow was the last day of Pei Xi’s critical period. If there was a fluctuation in the data when he left, it would be very dangerous.

However, it was rare for the original owner to agree. After thinking about it, it was not good to delay.

After all, the original owner was the biggest uncertainty in this matter. If they gave up tomorrow’s opportunity and waited for the next auspicious day, the original owner would regret it again…

Su Ji said that it was fine and told him to take good care of Pei Xi. When she returned, she would go to the hospital to look for them.

These words were so pleasant to hear that Pei Huai could not help but laugh softly.

He and Su Ji reconfirmed the auspicious time of the next day and told her the coordinates.

The location was also calculated by Bian Tong.

Pei Huai had already arranged everything else. Bian Tong, the original owner, and all the treasures.

At the auspicious time tomorrow, Su Ji only needed to wear her jade bracelet and appear at the designated coordinates.

Once the ritual was completed, Su Ji would be able to return.

After everything was done, Pei Huai looked at her. “You only have one chance. You must come back and see me at the hospital.”

Su Ji’s lips curled into a smile.. “When have I ever broken a promise?”
