"Ning'er, things have come to this point, don't be too sad. This is the best result that Dad and His Royal Highness can win."
Shangguan Yue learned about the incident from Xiao Yujue, and he could understand his daughter's mood.
He gently patted Shangguan Wanning's back of his hand and sighed, "When you are in better health, go and accompany your grandfather. He needs someone to relieve his mood now. Your mother has already gone back."
"I understand." Shangguan Wanning's voice was hoarse, and she stood up and went back to the room in dismay.
The next morning, Shangguan Wanning rushed to the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion and happened to meet the Imperial Guardian to seize the seal.
She got off the carriage and saw Zheng Guoxun standing at the door of the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion, with her mother and two uncles standing beside him.
Suddenly, Shangguan Wanning discovered that her grandfather was really old.
The body, which was originally as tall as pine and cypress, seemed to become hunched overnight.
"Grandpa..."
Shangguan Wanning walked forward, she was a little afraid to look Zheng Guoxun in the eyes. After all, Zheng Binghang died in order to save her.
If Zheng Binghang survived, perhaps the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion would not be like this today.
"Ning'er is here." Zheng Guoxun did not show any disgust or blame, and still looked doting. "Let's go and accompany my grandfather to see my new home."
"Um."
Shangguan Wanning endured the sadness and rode a carriage with Zheng Guoxun and came to a small alley west of the city.
The eldest princess was waiting there in advance.
"The grass people meet the eldest princess."
"Courselor, please get up quickly." The eldest princess came forward to support him, bowed to Zheng Guoxun and saluted, "In the future, we will be no different from ordinary people in the people. You are my father-in-law, and I am the wife of the Zheng family.
It should be that I would like to pay my respects to you.”
Zheng Binghong shook his wife's hand gratefully and the group entered the house together.
"Father-in-law, I have sent someone to clean up all the rooms. In the future, you will tell the butler that he will go and buy them."
The eldest princess asked all the servants in the mansion to come to pay homage to Zheng Guoxun.
Shangguan Yue also came over at noon. The family sat together for a meal, and Zheng Guoxun went back to the room.
Zheng Binghang was crushed to pieces during the explosion, and Zheng Binghong set up a tomb for him in a low-key manner.
After the Zheng family fell into loneliness, it became deserted and depressed. If it weren't for Shangguan Yue and the eldest princess as their backers, Zheng Guoxun would have been unable to spend his old age safely.
On the day when Zheng Binghang was seventh, Shangguan Wanning paid homage for thousands of times. When he came back, it started to rain heavily on the road, and the carriage fell into the muddy road and could not move forward.
The coachman and Lutong went to the nearby village to find help. Shangguan Wanning sat alone in the carriage, staring at the foggy sky in a daze.
Suddenly, the carriage vibrated, and Shangguan Wanning came to her senses. The curtain of the carriage was lifted up and a huge head came into her.
"Oh, there is a little beauty in the car?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another head squeezed in.
Two pairs of eyes were greedily shuttled back and forth across her body.
Shangguan Wanning's face darkened, and her already gloomy mood became even worse.
"Who are you?"
"We...haha, we are the ones who come to accompany you."
Shangguan Wanning saw that these two people were not good things, so she calmed down and said, "My family will be back soon. If they see them, it may cause misunderstandings."
As he said that, Shangguan Wanning took out the silver and handed it over, and wanted to spend money to buy some peace of mind. "You two should leave as soon as possible."
The fat head took the silver and put it in his arms, still smiling. He and his companions exchanged glances. The two of them tacitly grabbed Shangguan Wanning's hand and wanted to drag her out of the carriage.
"Let go!" Shangguan Wanning scolded, angry and annoyed, "Do you know who I am? He is so brave, but he dares to be rude to me?"
"I don't know who you were before, but in a while, you will be our wife."
The two carried Shangguan Wanning and walked towards the tree-lined path in the rain, wanting to carry her home.
No matter how hard Shangguan Wanning struggles, she can't break free.
Fear spread all over my body.
In the misty rain, a figure passed by the two of them, and suddenly a severe pain came, causing them to let go involuntarily.
Shangguan Wanning thought she would fall on the soil, but was wrapped in a strong arm and hugged it in her arms.
She looked up and saw a handsome face.
For a moment, she was a little dazed.
Two people who fell to the ground and wailed, crawling up and staring at Mu Jingrui angrily.
"Where did the wild boy come from? How dare you care about your uncle's affairs?"
Mu Jingrui's anger burned in his heart whenever he thought that the two of them had just touched Shangguan Wanning.
He condensed his true energy in his palm, and his body shook and slapped his palms on the two of them, breaking their meridians.
"roll!"
The two of them were completely scared and rolled and crawled away.
It became quiet around, with only the sound of drizzle.
The cold rain slapped his cheeks, and Shangguan Wanning felt that her heart was gradually getting colder.
"Go back to the carriage to shelter from the rain first." Mu Jingrui took Shangguan Wanning's hand and walked into the carriage.
The temperature conveyed from his palm made Shangguan Wanning's heart ached faintly.
Both of them were already wet when they returned to the carriage.
"How are you?"
"How are you?"
The two asked each other in unison.
"I'm fine, what's the point of getting wet with this little rain?" Mu Jingrui whispered, "It's you..."
"I'm not asking this." Shangguan Wanning remembered that Mu Jingrui was beaten to the point of being injured in the prison.
She knew that Mu Jingrui was acquitted and that the emperor had restored all his positions. But... she had never visited her.
Because she didn't know whether Mu Jingrui was willing to accept it.
"I'm asking about your injury..."
"It's okay." Mu Jingrui said it lightly. In fact, the wounds in many places have not healed.
He always wanted to meet Shangguan Wanning, but he could never find a chance.
Today I heard that she came out to pay homage to Zheng Binghang, so I rushed over. Fortunately, he came.
"Can we talk?" Mu Jingrui looked at Shangguan Wanning, and his heart trembled faintly.
Shangguan Wanning lowered her eyes and chuckled, which was a helpless mockery of herself.
"Actually... there is nothing to say between us." Shangguan Wanning deliberately avoided Mu Jingrui's gaze and looked at the heavy rain outside the carriage.
"I have explained it to you very clearly in the letter. I asked you to meet that day, and I waited for you in Panliuting for so long... but you never came. You just don't believe that I didn't betray you, I don't believe that I and the King of Qin are.
Innocence…”
"Panliuting?" Mu Jingrui was stunned, "Didn't you make an appointment with Biliuting?"
Shangguan Wanning was also stunned.
Both realized that something might be wrong in the middle.
