Shangguan Wanning happily hugged Luguang, but heard Lutong cry loudly.
"Silly girl, what's wrong?" Shangguan Wanning pulled Lutong out of her arms and asked with concern, "Is it because I'm not at home and someone bullies you?"
Lutong shook her head desperately and burst into tears.
"Miss, your worry is purely unnecessary. Who dares to bully her?" Huo Gang walked over slowly and clasped his fists at Sun Jinyao.
Sun Jinyao just nodded slightly and expressed his return gift.
"It would be good if she didn't bully others." Huo Gang said with a big laugh.
"How could I do..." Lu Tong held Shangguan Wanning's hand after stabilizing her emotions, "Miss, I miss you so much."
Shangguan Wanning pinched Lutong's face and pulled the grapes behind Huo Gang. "I miss you very much too. I haven't been at home for these days, how are my parents in good health?"
"Miss, don't worry, the master and wife are in good health." Grape replied softly.
"Brother Huo, why are you here?" Shangguan Wanning asked with a smile.
"Ning'er, why don't you find a place to sit down and talk about it?" Sun Jinyao pointed to the teahouse behind him.
The group entered the teahouse, found a seat by the window, and sat down. Lutong and Grape stood by Shangguan Wanning habitually.
"You guys sit down, there are not so many rules when you go out."
"Miss, you have been out for half a year and haven't come home to see you. Although letters are sent every month, the master and wife are still very concerned about you. So, let me come to Yaowang Valley to see you. By the way, by the way
I’ll give you more seasonal clothes and jewelry.”
Huo Gang pointed to the two carriages that followed him. "These two girls pestered me for several days and insisted that I bring them with me. I asked the master and his wife, but they finally agreed."
"Then... I want to come and see the eldest lady, too." Grape and Lutong are different.
Lutong grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion since she was young. Everyone knows that she is Shangguan Wanning's confidant. Even if Shangguan Wanning is not here, no one in the mansion dares to bully her.
But she...
After all, grapes are just a newcomer. Without Shangguan Wanning in front of you, I always feel that something is missing.
"Miss, why don't you... let me stay and serve you. You need someone to do it and cook."
"Yes, yes, Miss, let me stay with you."
"Hey? You two... what did you say when we came? If you two don't go back, why would I report to the master and wife?"
Only then did Huo Gang realize that women really couldn't believe their words.
They begged him to take them out and said that, and they promised to obey his arrangements when they were out.
Grape was a little guilty and retreated in panic; Lutong was not afraid at all, so she made a face at Huo Gang.
Shangguan Wanning could imagine that Lutong must have caused Huo Gang a lot of trouble along the way.
She asked a lot about her parents, and Huo Gang answered them one by one.
She hesitated for a long time and asked, "Brother Huo, what has happened in the capital in the past six months?"
After all, Shangguan Wanning still had some shadows on the events in her previous life.
Huo Gang pondered for a moment and replied, "There are two things. Not long after you left, news of the miscarriage of His Highness the Prince's concubine came out of the news."
"Jing Yan has miscarriage?" Shangguan Wanning was a little surprised and felt silently regretful in her heart.
Miscarriage is not only a physical harm to women, but also a mental torture.
Mu Jingrui should be heartbroken too.
The moment he thought of Mu Jingrui, Shangguan Wanning's hand trembled involuntarily.
Huo Gang seemed to see what she was thinking and immediately changed the subject.
"The other thing happened recently. The Turkic princess Shu Yan is coming to the Central Plains to marry the emperor and marry the emperor as a concubine."
Shangguan Wanning was stunned for a moment, and her heroic appearance appeared in her mind.
"I didn't expect that a girl she was so proud actually..."
"Maybe there is nothing we can do." Huo Gang also felt sorry for Ge Shuyan. "I heard that the Turkic Khan died not long ago. Ge Shuyan's compatriot brother, the second Turkic prince, inherited the position of Khan. But this second
The prince seems to lack both ability and prestige."
"If the throne is to be stable, it is naturally necessary to rely on the power of the outside world. He took the initiative to write to the emperor for peace, and in order to show his sincerity, he even sent his own sister to the Central Plains. The emperor agreed for border peace."
After listening to it, Shangguan Wanning sighed heavily.
It is obviously a fight between men, but it is necessary to sacrifice a woman's lifelong happiness.
After a few more gossips, Sun Jinyao went to purchase daily necessities for a month and brought Huo Gang and others to the Medicine King Valley.
Huo Gang took out the gift prepared by Shangguan Yue and gave it to Lu Xiangzi. He lived in the Medicine King Valley for seven or eight days before leaving.
Lutong and Grape didn't want to leave, but Shangguan Wanning did not agree to let them stay.
First, I don’t want to make things difficult for Huo Gang, and second, Lu Xiangzi doesn’t like too many people to stay here.
On the way back, Lutong was depressed all the time, holding her chin listlessly.
"Sister Lutong, don't be unhappy. Maybe the eldest lady will be back soon." Grape pulled her sleeve and comforted her.
The group rushed for several days. In the evening, everyone came to the inn to stay, but were told not to receive anyone.
Huo Gang looked up at the sky. It must be too late to rush to the next town shop, so he took out the token of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly went in and reported to the postmaster. Soon after, the postmaster personally welcomed him.
"Sir Yicheng, we are servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When we go out to do business, it is getting late, so please make some convenience."
Huo Gang was very kind, and Yi Cheng bowed his hand repeatedly.
"If this brother was normal, even ordinary people could live, not to mention the family of your prime minister, but today... the situation is a bit special. I won't hide it from you, look in."
The official secretary turned sideways, allowing Huo Gang to see the situation in the hall.
He found that there was an imperial guard and there was a Turkic flag next to it.
A flash of inspiration in Huo Gang's mind.
Is this a coincidence?
"Could it be the Turkic princess?"
The postmaster smiled. "It's worthy of being from the Prime Minister's Mansion, it's just insightful. The Turkic princess came to the Central Plains to marry her, but came here because she missed the accommodation. In order to ensure her safety and reputation, she... cannot receive other people for the time being
.”
Huo Gang nodded in his understanding. "Since that's the case, then we'll say goodbye."
The official secretary secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as Huo Gang turned over and was about to leave, a maid came out from inside and said to him: "My princess learned that an old friend was visiting, please go into the house to reminisce about the past."
