Supreme Return

Chapter 1040 Refused to enter the village, Zheng Cuixin
The two rode together and galloped past on the official road.

It was Zhao Wan and Zhou Qi who was 'abducted' by her.

Although compared with Zhao Qingtian and Feng Xiu's team, the speed of the two of them must be much faster, but because of the beautiful scenery on the road from the imperial capital to Bilian Mountain, and Zhou Qi's first Once you are so far away from home, you have to stop every time you encounter something interesting, so in terms of overall speed, it is also slower.

But even so, they rushed to Bilian Town ahead of His Majesty's dragon chariot because they set off one day earlier.

Similarly, Wu Qiushan was notified that His Majesty and Empress had set off early.

Therefore, preparations for the palace and various receptions must be more urgent than before.

According to His Majesty's calculations, they already know that the Dragon Chariot will arrive at noon tomorrow.

Compared with last year, it was at least ten days earlier.

This made Wu Qiushan even more urgent. She even brought her cronies in Xuanyuan Villa to Bilian Town to supervise everything in person.

The entire Bilian Town, because of the upcoming arrival of His Majesty and Empress, has been fully operational.

However, in the midst of today's busyness, there are two more beautiful figures, one big and one small, in the town.

Zhao Wan was leading the horse, while Zhou Qi was sitting on the horse, shaking her little feet while looking around non-stop. Her big watery eyes were full of agility, which made people feel fond of them, and there were countless others. People looked sideways at each other.

"Auntie, where are we going now?"

Zhou Qi pouted, "Didn't you say you brought me to see my aunt and uncle? I didn't even see them!"

"Don't worry!"

Zhao Wan smiled softly, "This is called Bilian Town, if we want to meet, we have to go through this way, and it's already noon now, aren't you hungry?"

"Hee hee... I'm hungry, I'm hungry, Qi'er wants something delicious!"

Zhou Qi jumped off the horse and threw herself into Zhao Wan's arms, acting like a baby.

"Okay, let's go eat delicious food! After our Qi'er is full, we will go to see your uncle and the others!"

"Yeah! Auntie is the best!"

Zhou Qi nodded her head cheerfully.

In the end, they chose a restaurant that looked pretty good, and the two of them ate some local specialties at will before setting off again.

Pass through Bilian Town and head straight towards Bilian Mountain.

The horse could only stay at the foot of the mountain, and Zhao Wan led the bouncing Zhou Qi to climb the mountain.

The beautiful mountain scenery around here along the way made Zhou Qi very excited when she came here for the first time. Even if she saw a small butterfly, she would go up and make a fuss, which made Zhao Wan very happy, as if seeing the young butterfly Time yourself!

Yes!

After eight years, Zhao Wan is actually not young anymore.

And her heart was also dusty because of that person's death.

Although it looks the same as before, Zhao Wan knows that she has changed, and she is no longer the lively and arrogant princess she used to be.

But every time she sees Zhou Qi, she will have a little joy in the past, and this is one of the reasons why she and Zhou Qi are so close!

Playing together, it only took half an hour to reach Xuanyuan Mountain Villa, but they walked for nearly two hours, and it was almost evening at this time.

"Stop! Private territory, don't come close!"

When the guards of the villa saw the two, they immediately stepped forward to stop them.

"we are……"

Zhao Wan was about to say something, but the guard interrupted directly, "I don't care who you are! This is Xuanyuan Villa, and it's the private residence of Prince Chu's son! Get back quickly!"

"Did the prince not come back?"

Zhao Wan showed displeasure.

"Get out of the way, I want to see my uncle and aunt!"

Zhou Qi also reprimanded softly.

"Go away! There is no one of yours here!"

shouted the guards.

"Are you new here?"

Zhao Wan's face darkened.

Although she hasn't been here for more than two years, the previous guards all know her, so it is impossible to treat her like this.

"You control us..."

The guard glared at each other, and at this moment, a gentle voice sounded from the side, "What's going on? What are you doing?"

This is a beautiful woman dressed in plain clothes, she looks very kind.

"I have seen the eldest lady!"

The guards bowed in salute.

But even though he saluted, his attitude was not very good, even contemptuous.

She is Zhou Hu's eldest wife, Zheng Cuixin who married Zhou Hu under the witness of Chu Xuan and the others.

Because they have never had any heirs, and Zheng Cuixin was born in a poor family, and these guards were also transferred from Wu Qiushan, so they did not show any respect to Zheng Cuixin, the eldest lady.

Over the years, because of Wu Qiushan's joining and the fact that Wu Qiushan gave birth to a son for Zhou Hu, her status here has become lower and lower, and even these servants have never paid attention to her.

"Well, what's going on here?"

Facing the rudeness of these guards, Zheng Cuixin didn't take it seriously, but the moment she saw Zhao Wan again, her face suddenly changed, and when she was about to say something, she quickly shut her mouth.

"Reporting to Da Furen, these two people said they are looking for someone! Where are we, how can there be someone they are looking for? I am about to drive them away!" the guard replied.

"Isn't that bad? And..."

Zheng Cuixin's face changed a little, she knew Zhao Wan.

Just now she almost blurted out Zhao Wan's identity, but it was because Zhao Wan's voice transmission prevented her from saying anything.

"The second lady ordered before leaving that no one is allowed to enter the village!" The guard directly interrupted Zheng Cuixin's words.

"Since there is no one we are looking for, let's go first!"

Zhao Wan squinted her eyes, then turned around and left with Zhou Qi, who was somewhat reluctant.

Zheng Cuixin opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. She sighed and went straight into the villa.

It's not that she didn't complain, but it's a pity that she knows what three obediences and four virtues are, and she doesn't want to compete with Wu Qiushan, so she has always seemed so cowardly.

Now she understands that some things cannot be avoided.

It's a pity that since Zhou Hu began to retreat half a year ago, everything in the village has been handled by Wu Qiushan, a "sister", and she can't control so much.

After a while, Zheng Cuixin also left the village.

As for where to go, those guards, or rather, many members of the Wu family in the villa didn't care, they didn't look down on this so-called eldest lady at all.

…………

"Auntie, why don't we go in?"

On the way down the mountain, Zhou Qi puffed up and asked, very dissatisfied.

"Because your eldest uncle and aunt are not here! Let's wait for them in the town before, or wait for your grandpa and grandma to come, and let's go in together?" Zhao Wan replied.

"Ah? Are Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang coming? Oh...it's not good, they won't be angry with me, will they?"

Zhou Qi bit her lip and said.

"How could it be? Our Qi'er is so obedient!"

"really?"

"Well, really!"

After some conversation, the two had already reached the foot of the mountain, but this time they did not leave in a hurry, but waited here quietly.

Of course, the so-called quietness is also impossible.

With such a chattering cutie around, how can he be quiet?

About ten minutes later, Zheng Cuixin came, alone with a package and nothing else.

"Women see the princess!"

Zheng Cuixin bowed and saluted.

"Sister Zheng, don't be too polite!"

Zhao Wan hurriedly went to help her up, and asked with a frown, "What's going on with this Xuanyuan Villa? And who is the second lady that those people say? I haven't been here for more than two years. Could it be that Xuanyuan Villa has become someone else's property?" gone?"

"The princess doesn't know..."

Zheng Cuixin smiled wryly, and immediately told the whole story of Wu Qiushan's actions in these years, which made Zhao Wan's eyebrows frowned, and her eyes were full of murderous intent.

"That bad woman is really bad! Auntie, can Qi'er hit her?"

Zhou Qi waved her small fist a few times, and asked Zhao Wan crisply.

"Yes, but we have to wait until we see your grandpa and the others, or your uncle and the others!" Zhao Wan restrained her murderous intentions and nodded with a smile.

"Is that so..."

Zhou Qi tilted her head, "Okay, let that bad woman go first!"

"Princess, this is..."

Zheng Cuixin looked at Zhou Qi in puzzlement. The "aunt" she said to Zhao Wan made Zheng Cuixin a little puzzled.

"You should know!"

Hearing this, Zhao Wan rubbed Zhou Qi's little head, and said with a smile amidst her dissatisfied coquettishness, "I remember that when Qi'er was born seven years ago, Zhou Hu took you to the imperial capital!"

"Qier?"

Zheng Cuixin was stunned, while Zhou Qi nodded repeatedly, "Auntie, I am the cutest Qi'er! Do you know me?"

"I remember!"

Zheng Cuixin recalled carefully, her face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly bowed to salute, "I met Miss Qi'er!"

"Oh, auntie, what are you doing? Get up, get up! You don't need to salute, you are a good person!"

Zhou Qi quickly avoided, and ran to help Zheng Cuixin herself.

Zheng Cuixin was quite flattered by this move, and Zhao Wan nodded repeatedly.

Although this little girl is a bit of a witch, she is still well-bred after all, and she is worthy of being the niece of Chu Xuan and Zhou Lan.

"Okay, sister Zheng!"

Zhao Wan waved her hand and said, "As far as I know, Brother Xuan and his sisters-in-law have already returned. Although they didn't return to the villa for some reason, it won't be too long! You can go to Bilian Town with us and wait, so that we don't have to wait again. Go back and suffer!"

"All according to the princess' orders!"

Zheng Cuixin bowed and agreed, and then the three of them walked towards Bilian Town.

Zhou Qi was sitting on the horse, Zhao Wan and Zheng Cuixin walked side by side, they seemed to have left behind the unhappiness in their hearts along the way, and there was such a pistachio as Zhou Qi, which made Zheng Cuixin's face show a true love that he hadn't seen for a long time. smile.

But at this time, Chu Xuan took Zhou Lan and the others to visit the scenic spots around Bilian Town, without knowing what happened.
