Lady Wan Guan

By chance, Qing Xing came back with the bowls and chopsticks.

After serving the porridge for the two of them, he wisely stepped back.

Gu Zhouting then said: "I forgot to tell you that the person I arranged in Dengzhou sent a letter last night. Mr. Qiu called the people from the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau to question him. He was imprisoned for one night and then released. The government also posted a The notice offered a reward of 50 taels of silver to anyone who provided clues to the grain robbery case. The notice was posted for three days, but no one came forward to provide clues."

Jiang Wanning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she asked Chen Song and the others to explain the interests and risks to the people involved in the food robbery in advance, the government would definitely offer a reward for clues. Anyone who betrayed everyone for the reward money would also be harming themselves. The law will not punish everyone. , the only one who gets into trouble in the end is the betrayer.But Jiang Wan Ning was still a little worried and didn't want Chen Song and others to become targets of arrest by the government.

"Also, on the second day after you fell into coma, the seven families in Dengzhou collected another [-] dans of grain and transported it away. My people have preserved the evidence. Now we just have to wait for the informants in the Zhenbei Army to get it. The evidence that Lu Yiming killed people and pretended to receive military merit will be forwarded to the emperor when Mingzhou finds Dong Cheng."

"Ms. Jiang, there is nothing I can do to prevent that batch of grain from falling into the hands of the Dayuan people. Do you understand?"

Jiang Wanning nodded. Of course she understood that Lu Yiming was in a hurry. If there was a decisive battle, the [-] soldiers brought by Ji Yunchen would not be able to defeat Lu Yiming who had [-] soldiers.

Now I can only endure it and wait until the time is right to settle the score with Lu Yiming.

Fortunately, this time the 10 taels were spent on the family wealth of the seven families.

"I really don't understand, what's the purpose of Lu Yiming's deal with the Dayuan people? To save the border from war? But I heard that the Dayuan army still comes to harass them frequently."

Gu Zhouting snorted and said in a cold voice: "There is no war at the border, so where does his military merit come from? He has gained military merit, and the people of Dayuan have benefited. They work together to perform and each gets what they need."

Jiang Wanning resented: "Giving him the Zhenbei Army's designation is an insult to the name of the Zhenbei Army."

Three generations of the Shangguan family fought bloody battles, and the iron-clad banner of the Zhenbei Army was destroyed by Lu Yiming.

My father, brother, and the one hundred thousand soldiers who died in Gubei would have been able to survive if there had been knowledge in Quanxia.

Gu Zhouting looked at the killing intent in her cold eyes and consoled him, "He won't be able to use this number for long."

After breakfast, Gu Zhouting still sat and refused to leave: "Ms. Jiang, I said at the inn that I would play a game of chess with you."

How dare Jiang Wan Ning play chess with him? A person's chess moves are fixed and easy to see through.

"Sir, I...I'm a little tired." Jiang Wanning coughed twice on purpose, making a weak gesture.

Gu Zhouting seemed to have read through her thoughts. She always gave him hints in the past, but now that they finally cooperated, she began to cover up.

Then he stood up and said, "Then let's wait for another day. Madam Jiang will have a good rest."

"Well, my lord, I didn't sleep last night. Please hurry up and catch up on your sleep." Jiang Wanren bowed.

Don’t be too obvious about chasing people away.

Gu Zhou stopped smiling, turned and left.

Qing Xing was at the door: "Best farewell to you, sir."

Watching Mr. Gu leave the yard, Qingxing entered the room: "Madam, I want to play chess with you, why don't you agree?"

It's great to play chess, it enhances feelings.

Jiang Wan Ning looked at her expressionlessly, and Qing Xing quickly changed the subject: "Hey, madam, where did you get this sachet?"

Jiang Wanning hurriedly stuffed the sachet into her sleeve pocket and said harshly: "Where did it come from? This is my sachet. Look at you, you don't know where to use it every day."

Qingxing couldn't help laughing, and the lady blushed. The sachet must have been given by Master Gu.

Three days later, the team set off back to Beijing.

Instead of rushing as slowly as when he came, on the way back, every time he arrived at a city or town, Gu Zhouding would ask to go into the city to take a rest, euphemistically calling it to inspect the people's sentiments, which made the officials along the way tremble and had to go. Serve with care.Ji Yunchen saw through it without saying anything, but Gu Zhouting was obviously worried that Mrs. Jiang's small body would not be able to bear it.

He is no longer so disgusted with Lady Jiang now. Naturally, he doesn't want Lady Jiang to fall ill again. It's okay to walk slowly so that everyone can be happy and relaxed.

Therefore, it took a full ten days longer to return to the capital than when we arrived. By the time we returned to the capital, the fifteenth lantern festival had passed.

Jiang Wanning's caravan did not enter the city together with Gu Zhouding's team, but stayed outside the city for most of the day before entering the city.

As soon as they got home, Yu Niang, Lin Ruoruo, and Jiang Shi were all there.

"Huh? Doctor Lin, your calculations are very accurate. You said that Siniang will come back today." Jiang Shi was very happy to see the girl.

If Lin Ruoruo didn't answer his words, there was quite a stir among the imperial ministers returning to the capital. Master Gu is back, so Mrs. Jiang will definitely come back with him!Do you need to guess?
"Sister, you have lost weight again. Is it hard to go out this time? I am worried to death at home. I heard from the caravans coming back from the north that there is chaos over there. There are refugees, bandits, and some caravans have been attacked. Tribulation." Jiang Shi chattered endlessly.

Lin Ruoruo glared at him: "Can Madam Jiang sit down and have a sip of hot tea first?"

"Yes, yes, sister, hurry back and warm yourself up. Brother, I'll make you a pot of hot tea." Jiang Shi was disgusted with it, but was not annoyed at all. He went to make tea with a smile.

Jiang Wanning looked at Lin Ruoruo with a half-smile.

Lin Ruoruo felt very uncomfortable when she looked at her and said in embarrassment: "Why is Madam Jiang looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?"

Jiang Wan Ning pointed out: "This is the first time I have seen my brother be so good-tempered in front of outsiders."

Yu Niang joked: "Sanlang Jun is not always good-tempered in front of any outsider, except for one person."

Lin Ruoruo had a suspicious blush on her face.

Jiang Wanning looked at the shy Lin Ruoruo with a smile. It seemed that the relationship between someone and someone had subtly changed during her absence.

Lin Ruosuo coughed twice and said seriously: "Ms. Jiang, the prince came to see you on the first day of the new year."

Jiang Wanning's smile froze, Prince?Xiao Wang came to find her?

"What did he want from me?"

"I didn't say that it was the guard next to him who came. The guard didn't introduce himself, but I saw him at the inn and recognized him. I told him that you had gone out to do business and would not come back during the New Year, so he left. Never came again.”

Jiang Wanning nodded. The guard should be Cui Zhe.

But she really couldn't understand why Xiao Wang wanted to find her.There should be no reason for them to contact each other again. Could it be that he wanted to ask her if she dreamed of Nan Zhi again?

You already have a princess, why are you still worried about Nan Zhi?
"By the way, Mrs. Liu from Uncle Guo's Mansion also sent someone to look for you." Lin Ruoruo said again.

Jiang Wan Ning's thoughts changed.

"When did you come?"

"On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, grandma said that when you come back, please be sure to go to my uncle's house."

Jiang Wanning thought thoughtfully. On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, the scar on Mrs. Liu's forehead should have disappeared. Mrs. Liu might be looking for her for that matter.

But she didn't plan to go to her uncle's house today. They had been waiting for so many days anyway, and they didn't care about waiting one more day.

Thank you to all those who voted and rewarded Azi recently. I saw many familiar IDs again. It’s really nice and kind.
