"Miss, it seems... the prince is determined to marry you."
Lu Tong accompanied Shangguan Wan Ning to Yaowang Valley. On the way, she heard merchants traveling from north to south discussing with great interest the matter of King Zhennan being divorced.
"Oh, this former Princess Zhennan is really a ruthless person. Even a god of war like King Zhennan can't do anything to her."
"No. You said, if she marries another person in the future, what kind of hero will she be able to control?"
Shangguan Wan Ning listened silently, with all kinds of feelings flooding into her heart.
In order to make up for his debt to Yin Yuqing, Mu Jingrui took great pains and would rather suffer more grievances.
besides……
Shangguan Wan Ning could feel that the reason why Mu Jingrui was willing to do this was to give her an explanation.
Suddenly, Shangguan Wan Ning missed Mu Jingrui very strongly.
"Miss, are you okay?" Lu Tong asked with concern when she saw Shangguan Wan Ning's expression.
Shangguan Wan Ning forced out a smile. "It's okay. Let's continue on the road. Otherwise, we won't be able to get to the next hotel before dark."
"yes."
The guard walked outside the door and packed up the carriage again. Shangguan Wan Ning walked up with Lu Tong's support.
After the group of people walked for a while, the sky turned gloomy unconsciously, and dark clouds drifted over in the distance.
"Miss, it's going to rain soon. I'm afraid I won't be able to get to the next town in time. Do you want to find a place nearby to take shelter? At least we can escape the heavy rain before we do it?"
Shangguan Wan Ning listened to the guard's report, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.
Sure enough, the scene in front of her made her feel chest tight, short of breath, and even more uncomfortable. Before she could think about it, heavy rain started pouring down.
It was too late to find a place to hide.
Everyone had no choice but to move forward in the rain.
After a while, the sky turned completely dark, and the rain became heavier and heavier. The guards had no choice but to slow down their march.
"Hush!"
The horse suddenly lost control. Shangguan Wan Ning and Lu Tong, who were sitting in the car, were caught off guard and staggered.
Shangguan Wan Ning hit her head on the wooden board and grimaced in pain.
Fortunately, the guard who controlled the carriage was very skilled and reined in the horse rope in time, so that the carriage did not rush into the ditch nearby.
Lu Tong lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked angrily: "What's wrong with you? If the eldest lady falls, can you afford it?"
"Miss, I apologize, but someone suddenly rushed out just now...the horse was frightened..."
"Miss, there is a girl in front who fainted."
Shangguan Wan Ning's thoughts calmed down, and she was slightly startled when she heard someone fainted.
She asked Lutong to step out of the carriage holding an umbrella.
Sure enough, there was a girl covered in mud lying on the muddy road.
Her clothes were in tatters, and there were bloody marks on her face and arms.
Shangguan Wan Ning stepped forward and sniffed the girl's breath. "She's still breathing. Lu Tong, help her onto the carriage and I'll take a look for her."
"yes."
Lutong didn't care that the girl was dirty, handed the umbrella to Shangguan Wanning, leaned over and helped the girl get into the carriage.
Shangguan Wan Ning ordered the guards to move on. She briefly cleaned and applied medicine to the girl's wounds in the carriage, and put her into her own clothes.
"Huh? Miss, what is this?"
Lutong dug out a unique sachet from the girl's clothes, with a peculiar flower embroidered on it.
"Miss, what kind of flower is this? I have never seen it before..."
Shangguan Wan Ning took it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but be stunned.
She couldn't help but look at the girl, frowning.
It wasn't until late at night that they entered the town and found an inn to stay.
Lutong fed the girl some rice porridge.
The next morning, the girl slowly opened her eyes.
"Miss, she's awake." Lu Tong excitedly ran to Shangguan Wan Ning's side holding a bowl, "Look, she's awake."
The girl looked around, then barely supported herself and climbed up. She looked at Shangguan Wan Ning with a pair of fearful eyes, seemingly full of vigilance.
"Who are you?" The girl pulled the quilt to wrap herself up, retreated, and shivered.
"Hey, why are you so ignorant? If my lady hadn't saved you last night, you would have froze to death on the roadside."
Lutong was very dissatisfied with this move made by the girl.
Tears welled up in the girl's eyes, and she curled up on the corner of the bed, lowering her head and biting her lip, her body trembling slightly.
"Girl, this little girl is ignorant and talks nonsense, don't take it to heart. Don't be afraid, we are not bad people."
Shangguan Wan Ning walked to the bedside, stretched out her hand to hold the girl's hand, and said with a smile: "Where is your home? I can ask my entourage to take you back..."
"No...no...I can't go back, I don't want to hurt them..."
"Girl, what happened?"
"I..." The girl suddenly burst into tears and withdrew the hand held by Shangguan Wan Ning, "Sister, thank you for saving me last night. But... I don't want to hurt you, please leave quickly.
,Leave me alone."
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Wan Ning hesitated slightly, took out the sachet from her arms and handed it to the girl.
"Is this the girl's own thing?"
The girl snatched the sachet back and held it tightly in her hand.
"If this is really your thing, then... I think I should send you to the nearest government office."
The girl looked at Shangguan Wan Ning in surprise. "Sister recognizes this sachet? Could it be that she does too?"
Shangguan Wan Ning smiled and shook her head.
"I know that this is a sachet given by the royal family. Every girl who is selected and qualified to enter the palace selection will have one."
Now it was Lutong's turn to be surprised.
Along the way, I heard people talk about the emperor's selection of beautiful women to enrich his harem. I never expected that the beautiful women would be so embarrassed.
"Don't send me to the government...don't...I managed to escape with great difficulty..." The girl knelt down, pulled Shangguan Wan Ning's sleeve and begged bitterly.
"Girl, I don't understand. Although you haven't entered the palace yet, your status is different now. Why do you..."
The girl stopped crying and took up her sleeve to wipe the tears from her eyes.
"Since my sister has such knowledge, she must also know some specific matters about draft girls."
Shangguan Wan Ning nodded.
The girl raised her head and looked at Shangguan Wan Ning, and continued: "I am from Shouchang County, my name is Li Min'er. My father is the chief registrar of Shouchang County. Shouchang County is originally a small place, and those who meet the conditions are selected.
There are only three.”
"We three girls were sent to the prefecture government office, together with twelve girls from other counties, and were sent to the capital together. When passing through Wenrong County, Capt. Liu who escorted us visited Mrs. Xiao... Unexpectedly
