: Abused in the Prince’s Mansion (19)
The next day, Jiang Rao discovered that there were a few more guards in his courtyard, and Wei Jinchi also sent people to deliver many things, saying they were gifts of thanks for saving his life.
In this case, wouldn't she be unable to go out to find Xie Yan in the middle of the night?
Yunzhu next to him was feeling happy for his master, when he saw her frowning slightly, as if she was a little unhappy.
She considered it and said, "It's not a good thing that the prince sends you something. Why is the master unhappy?"
Jiang Rao shook his head and changed the subject.
"Why haven't you seen Concubine Liu recently?"
She had thought that Concubine Liu was here for the Hundred Flowers Banquet, but it didn't seem like her to be silent for such a long time.
Yunzhu thought that her master was afraid that the concubine would be jealous and cause trouble, so she spoke:
"This slave knows that Concubine Liu returned to the Protectorate about ten days ago. It seems that her brother has returned, so she went back to stay for a while."
I see.
Jiang Rao nodded, "By the way, is it almost time to return to the door?"
Hearing this, Yunzhu responded, "Yes, the princess has been married for almost a month."
The door-returning ceremony was agreed upon after the marriage between Wei and Jiang was finalized, in order to show the advantages of the marriage between the two countries and to permanently bond the friendship between Qin and Jin.
At the beginning of the marriage, one month is the homecoming ceremony, and then one year.
Jiang Rao: "Then prepare your things for returning to Jiang Country."
"yes."
As a gift to return home, Emperor Wei specially summoned Jiang Rao to the palace two days later and rewarded her with something to take back to the Jiang Kingdom.
But there was a problem.
Wei Jinchi had urgently left for Jiangnan to deal with the flood the day before yesterday and was unable to accompany her. Emperor Wei said that he would send ministers to escort her back to Jiang State without losing etiquette.
When Jiang Rao saw the thank-you banquet at the door on the day he left, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The prime minister in white clothes took the initiative to salute, with a cold expression between his brows and eyes, "Princess Jiang, I obey your majesty's order to protect your highness the princess when she returns to Jiang Kingdom."
Jiang Rao: "..."
It was an unexpected surprise.
Jiang Rao's lips are curved, her face is lightly painted with makeup, and her brows and corners of her eyes are full of spring.
"The Prime Minister is here to help."
As she finished speaking, she saw not far away, the cold Prime Minister's unconcealed raised corners of his mouth.
…
The carriage team left the capital not far away, and Xie Yan heard the voices of soldiers coming from outside the carriage.
"Prime Minister, Princess Duan invites you."
After a pause for a few seconds, he replied, "Let Princess Jiang wait a moment. I will be here soon."
"yes."
Yunzhu was a little excited when he saw the Qing Jun man who opened the curtain and entered. He quickly stood up and left the carriage, leaving space for the two of them to talk alone.
"Princess Ginger."
Seeing him nodding and saluting, Jiang Rao raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Thank you for the banquet, and there are no outsiders."
Xie Yan raised his lips and said, "The etiquette cannot be discarded."
The young man who smiles is even more beautiful, and it just fits that sentence, Lang Yan is the only one in the world.
The smile on Jiang Rao's face became even stronger.
She said deliberately: "Then Prime Minister Xie should also call me Princess Duan. It seems that I have never heard you call me that?"
The last words ended in a rising tone, with a hint of doubt.
After hearing the girl's words clearly, the man's eyes were deep and his long, thin eyelashes covered his eyelids, hiding the emotions in his eyes.
Xie Yan pursed his lips, "I thought..."
Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Rao chuckled, "Okay, why are you taking it seriously?" She changed the subject, "Why are you going to Jiang Country this time?"
Xie Yan raised his eyes slightly and stared at her, "It's Xie who recommended himself."
He still remembered that he felt inexplicably empty after not seeing her for a few days. When Emperor Wei asked who wanted to go to Jiang State, he spoke without hesitation.
He seemed to like her.
From a modest distance, the man's eyes were deep and dark, and her reflection was clearly reflected in the dark pupils.
Jiang Rao blinked unconsciously, and when he looked again, the man withdrew his gaze.
