Jiu'er followed Ruan Mianmian's gaze and recognized at a glance that the people walking on the other side were Gu Ling'an and Fang'er.
"After hiding in Lanyuan for some days, Miss Gu finally came out for a walk."
"Is she peaceful these days?" Ruan Mianmian turned around and asked casually.
"I heard he's quite peaceful."
Ruan Mianmian's mind recalled the first meeting with Gu Ling'an and the demonstration at Yanlongyuan that day.
"This person is not a calm person. He has been able to endure and hide for so long. He has a tough mind and is not simple."
"Don't worry, Princess, Lanyuan has arranged for someone to keep an eye on it."
"Well, that's good. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Gu Ling'an chose to reappear at this time. The timing is just right." Ruan Mianmian slowed down, "By the way, the one named Fang'er next to her should also pay attention."
"Yes, I understand." Jiu'er nodded repeatedly.
While the master and servant were talking, they saw A Dong standing next to the old Marquis of Fu'an Hall by the path and looking around.
Ruan Mianmian signaled Jiu'er to silence, and the two of them turned into the roadside and walked quietly through the flowers.
"A Dong!"
The small-breasted dumpling jumped out from behind and roared, which scared A Dong to the point of jumping up, but she laughed out loud at the mischief.
When he turned around and saw Ruan Mianmian, A Dong patted his heart: "I was scared to death, Princess, you are back."
"Hey, I heard you say that you are waiting here specially for me?" Ruan Mianmian reacted very quickly, "Grandpa is looking for me?"
A Dong composed himself and said respectfully: "Yes, I came back with the old Marquis. He went back to Fu'an Hall first. He told me to wait here and let you go as soon as I see you."
"Why is it so urgent? You can't even ask the princess to go back and change clothes." Jiu'er interjected.
Ruan Mianmian rolled his eyes: "A Dong, did your grandfather just come back from the palace?"
"The princess's guess was really accurate."
"A Dong, how do you think your grandfather feels after returning home?"
Ruan Mianmian had already guessed why her grandfather was looking for her, so she took a roundabout way to get the news from Adong.
"Old Marquis is just like usual." A Dong replied as if he had not answered.
Forget it, Ruan Mianmian rolled her eyes. Someone who can stay with her grandfather is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She doesn't expect to get anything out of Adong's mouth.
"Then let's go." Ruan Mianmian glared at A Dong depressedly, but he smiled back.
Ruan Mianmian felt relieved as she raised her eyebrows slightly. As soon as A Dong smiled, she knew that at least her grandfather was not angry.
Ruan Geng was sitting in the study. His eyes seemed to be on the book, but in fact his mind had gone somewhere else.
After Ruan Mianmian entered the study, she sat quietly, uncharacteristically, and picked up the book she had not finished reading yesterday and read it carefully.
Grandfather was thinking about something, and Ruan Mianmian didn't want to disturb him, so it was best to just wait.
It wasn't until she heard a long sigh that Ruan Mianmian raised her head, met Ruan Geng's eyes, and grinned.
Ruan Geng put down the book in his hand: "How long have you been here?"
"I read seven or eight pages of the book." Ruan Mianmian also put down the book in his hand.
Grandfather and grandson looked at each other, Ruan Geng remained silent, and Ruan Mianmian felt a little guilty for no reason.
"Is grandpa angry?"
"I'm not angry, I just think you are quite capable of causing trouble."
"He said he wasn't angry." Ruan Mianmian muttered, "Grandpa is not honest at all."
"You're honest, okay. Then tell me honestly, have you taken my warning to heart? How come you've gone against Princess Minghui so quickly?"
If it was really because of this matter, it seems that Princess Minghui went to file a complaint. She would not go to the emperor to complain, but would go to the Queen Mother.
Ruan Mianmian quickly figured it out: "Grandpa, the Queen Mother is not an unreasonable person."
"Even if the Queen Mother is sensible, have you forgotten that Li Minghui is her granddaughter? And she is the only legitimate daughter of the King of Southern Xinjiang."
"Grandpa, there is no need to say anything. I know that the Queen Mother is angry." Ruan Mianmian blinked, "For Li Minghui, is the Queen Mother still making things difficult for you?"
"It's not like I'm in trouble, but the Queen Mother is a little unhappy. She wants you to go to the palace tomorrow and explain it clearly if there is any misunderstanding."
"To put it nicely, it's just that He Xini, according to Li Minghui's words, wants me to apologize and reconcile with her." Ruan Mianmian's small face wrinkled into a ball, "Grandpa, does the Queen Mother want me to go and reconcile with her?"
Apologize."
Ruan Geng was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother before, and he had already heard Li Minghui's version of the story, but he didn't believe it all. After all, he still believed in his little breast dumplings.
"Please explain to me the merits and demerits first, even the details."
"Oh." Xiao Naituanzi agreed obediently and then told everything that happened after entering the embroidery workshop.
Ruan Geng nodded while listening, and soon Ruan Mianmian finished telling what happened.
"Haha, you happened to be right. Li Minghui acted so unscrupulously in southern Xinjiang."
"Humph, it happened to hit my hand." Ruan Mianmian said with a cold face, "Grandpa, I didn't lie. My mother's embroidery workshop belongs to me. Besides, the Queen Mother cannot be unreasonable. If it is damaged, she must pay compensation.
."
"Li Minghui didn't mention anything about her wrongdoing. She just said that you blackmailed her for 50,000 taels, or you moved out of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to fool her." Ruan Geng paused here before continuing, "The most important thing is the words.
What you say is that you don’t take the royal family seriously."
"The Queen Mother is taboo about the last sentence." Ruan Mianmian always sees things to the point.
Ruan Geng nodded slightly and then sighed: "The big tree attracts the wind. You have been too glorious for more than a year. I don't know how many people have been in front of the Emperor and the Queen Mother to give you and our Ding'an Marquis Mansion eye drops."
"I understand that three people make a tiger. If they hear too much, even if the emperor favors me and even if I am the Queen Mother's savior, they will become suspicious." Ruan Mianmian said calmly.
Ruan Geng looked at Ruan Mianmian, his seemingly childish face was so transparent, and he really had a delicate heart with seven orifices.
"My grandfather had already made arrangements. After the New Year, I went to the academy to study peacefully. I happened to be dormant. For a year and a half, there was nothing spectacular about it."
After hearing what Ruan Mianmian said, Ruan Geng thought for a moment and then looked pleased.
"Before, I thought you wanted to go to the academy with the Crown Prince on a whim, but now it seems that you have already made arrangements. It's really hard for you to think so carefully."
Ruan Mianmian smiled slightly and did not refute. In fact, her grandfather was right. She had already planned it.
Looking out the window, Ruan Mianmian suddenly said: "Instead of entering the palace tomorrow, it is better to go now."
Why does the little baby say that wind is wind and rain is rain? Ruan Geng was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the unabashed intelligence in Ruan Mianmian's eyes, he understood instantly. It seemed that Xiaonuituanzi was unwilling to give up.
"Let's go, grandpa will accompany you to the palace to plead guilty." This chapter has been completed!
