Chapter 666: Zhenguogong Mansion
Xia Wanniang was a little surprised, but did not ask who it was.
Aunt Xiao said calmly, "Mrs. Wan, it's Qingfeng and Yunhe, right?"
Xia Wanniang was stunned for a moment and then nodded: "Yes."
Aunt Xiao: "Yunhe is fine, he's an orphan, but Qingfeng is more troublesome."
Xia Wanniang actually didn’t know what was going on. She just figured out from the news she received that the two were in love. However, she didn’t check what had happened in the past few years.
Let Mr. Qiu destroy the information. In this world, there are some things that not everyone can understand.
"Mom, I just hope they are happy. It doesn't really matter whether they have children or someone to look after them in their old age. I just want to have one person's heart and stay with him till we grow old together."
Aunt Xiao nodded: "If it is really as we guessed, I will go to the Qing family at that time, but Qingfeng may be kicked out of the Qing family."
Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "It's okay, we can afford it. Such a good teacher is in short supply in the northwest."
Aunt Xiao smiled and looked across the river: "When Qingfeng was an official, the Qing family treated him like a treasure. Later, he lost his official position and was driven to the countryside."
Xia Wanniang leaned cross-legged on the boat: "It's all for power, but I'm also afraid of being implicated."
Aunt Xiao nodded: "So no one has taken care of him for so many years, and he was left to fend for himself. This time, I'm afraid that the matter in Jiangnan was known to the Qing family, so His Majesty reused him."
Xia Wanniang: "Do they think Qingfeng might be used?"
Aunt Xiao: "I guess that's the case. They will probably use Qingfeng's marriage as an excuse."
Xia Wanniang now understood: "No wonder they didn't return to the northwest, but went directly to the capital."
Their journey was relatively smooth, and when they arrived at the Beijing dock, Wu Hanyu came to pick them up personally.
Wu Hanyu looked at the people getting off the boat and said, "Sister, thank you for your hard work."
Xia Wanniang raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "You are not ambiguous at all when you call me sister."
Wu Hanyu is not much younger than Xia Wanniang: "With the protection of the royal sister, my life will be much easier in the future."
Li Ge bowed to them and said, "Greetings to the Princess Zhenguo, the Duke Zhenguo, the old lady, the young princess, and the young masters."
Xia Wanniang waved her hand and said, "Alright, let's skip these empty formalities."
Wu Hanyu: "Sister, would you like to stay in the mansion first, or come with me to the palace?"
"I will go to the palace tomorrow. I will go back to the mansion today. I wonder where Qingfeng and Yunhe are?" Xia Wanniang was a little annoyed because she didn't see the two familiar people.
"Yunhe is in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, and Qingfeng is now in the Qing family's main home. Their marriages are being arranged recently." After Wu Hanyu finished speaking, he felt that Xia Wanniang was angry.
Xia Wanniang: "You didn't stop it?"
Wu Hanyu: "Royal sister, you also know my current situation. I am just an unpopular prince. Who would take my words to heart? Even when they came to pick you up, they thought you were unworthy. But this is not what I thought."
Xia Wanniang rolled her eyes and said, "Don't try to be so harsh on me. How could I not know you?"
Wu Hanyu smiled and asked them to get on the carriage. He handed two tokens to them and said, "With these two tokens, my sister and my husband can enter the palace unimpeded. I will go back and report."
Xia Wanniang took the two signs from his hand and said, "Go back and wait. I brought you something good this time."
"Then I'll wait for the royal sister to come find me." Wu Hanyu said and looked at the carriage going away.
Li Ge stood behind him and said, "Your Highness, the Princess Zhenguo has come to the capital. I'm afraid the capital is going to be bustling."
Wu Hanyu's face was full of smiles: "It feels great to have the support of my sister and brother-in-law, don't you think?"
Li Ge smiled and followed him into the carriage.
Xia Wanniang's carriage was the princess's carriage. It was so large that it would not feel crowded even if all of them sat inside.
Xu Li and the others had to go back to the Xu family first. He had to wait to be summoned, unlike the other two who could enter and leave the palace so freely.
Xia Wanniang and the others first sent Xu Li and his companions to the Xu family, where they met old Lord Xu and Xu Li's two brothers, but they did not talk much.
He just made an appointment to have dinner together another day and then left and returned to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion.
