But when he was most restless, suddenly the slave maid reported that Concubine Lou had returned to Yecheng. Yuan Zhonghua didn't have time to think about it, but felt that since Concubine Lou had returned to Yecheng, she, as her daughter-in-law, should naturally take the initiative to go to Bohai Palace to meet her mother-in-law. When I think about it, I feel that the ceremony is imminent. Gao Yuanjun is Concubine Lou's biological daughter, and Concubine Lou should be here for this.

As soon as he came out of the mansion of the Duke of Taiyuan, got into the car, lowered the curtain, and the ox cart staggered away. Gao Cheng didn't care where the car was going, and he didn't give a single order. He sat in the car, staring at Yuan Yuyi at the moment and taking a closer look, feeling that since they had met again since they had said goodbye, she had a more mature and charming temperament.

"Luoyang farewell, looking for ...... Will we finally see each other again, will you be okay? How could Qing be in the Yuanhui Mansion? Sun Teng has ever felt sorry for you? He blurted out a series of questions, and his heart was full of emotion.

Yuan Yuyi let him caress her shoulders and arms motionless, but her eyes were as clear as autumn water, and there was no confusion at all, as if what he said had nothing to do with her, and asked with a smile, "Who is Childe talking about?" Who told you to seek? Who is Sun Teng? I have been in the palace of the king of Jibei since I was born, and the king of Jibei treats me like a daughter, and I don't care about anything except dance and music. ”

Gao Cheng was stunned, she didn't know him? Isn't she Yuan Yuyi? It can't be, how could it not be? Did she really forget? It can't be either. Although he was full of doubts in his heart, his face remained silent, no longer looking into the past, but still caressed her shoulder and arm very gently, and asked gently, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Yuan Yuyi tilted her head and looked at him very innocently.

Gao Cheng suddenly felt that she looked very much like Yuan Zhonghua at this time. Suddenly remembering Yuan Zhonghua's disheartened expression at that time, he immediately changed his face and shouted, "Stop!" ”

The bullock cart immediately stopped.

Gao Cheng looked at Yuan Yuyi, his expression was already cold.

"You're a childe." Yuan Yuyi smiled at him as if she didn't know it. She was like a little girl who didn't know anything about the world, and she didn't understand how deep his mind was. Just because she is a shallow stream, she doesn't know the depth of the river. This made Gao Cheng suddenly relaxed.

"What about you?" Gao Cheng also put down his worries and asked her with a smile.

"Yuan Yuyi." Yuan Yuyi quickly replied.

"How is King Jibei treating you?" Gao Cheng asked again. Presumably, King Jibei treated her well, Yuan Yuyi did not call herself a slave, it didn't look like it was contrived.

"Good. Your Highness treats me like a daughter. Yuan Yuyi immediately blurted out, mentioning Yuan Hui, her expression became so warm.

"I'll treat you better." Gao Cheng felt that he was suddenly caught in her heart by her smile.

"Lord Lang." Cui Jishu's voice came from outside.

Gao Cheng had already taken Yuan Yuyi into his arms and asked casually, "What's the matter?" ”

Suddenly, the curtain opened, and Cui Jishu leaned in.

Yuan Yuyi saw that Cui Jishu did not mean to break free with shame in Gao Cheng's arms, she was shyly and smiled, which made Gao Cheng feel extremely interesting. He didn't have to avoid Cui Jishu, Yuan Yuyi smiled and fell into his arms, pillowed his head on Gao Cheng's shoulder and refused to look at Cui Jishu.

"Is the prince going home?" Cui Jishu didn't take the scene in front of him too seriously at all, as if he was turning a blind eye.

Gao Cheng was silent when he asked. He didn't seem to have any intention of taking Yuan Yuyi back to the house, and he seemed to be thinking about where to place her.

Seeing that Gao Cheng didn't give orders, Cui Jishu smiled and said, "It's good to have a place to go." Of course, Cui Jishu knew Gao Cheng's thoughts. No matter how much the prince loves this dancing girl, he will not be willing to displease the princess. Others can do it, of course this Yuan Yuyi can't, absolutely not.

"Where?" Gao Cheng asked with interest.

"The old palace in the north of the city, Lord Lang doesn't remember?" Cui Jishu reminded.

To the north of Yecheng is an old palace of the Cao Wei period, with a few palaces and a few damaged pavilions. Gao Cheng has the position of opening the house and the three divisions, which is the opening of the government, and it is natural to build a public office, but it is in the designated place. Naturally, he didn't have to be subject to such restrictions, Cui Jishu had already come up with this idea and built the general's office in the place of Cao Wei's old palace. The foundation was not bad, but now it has been repaired and renewed.

This is a very good idea, he didn't want to take Yuan Yuyi back to the house in the first place. Gao Cheng thought to himself, if Yuan Yuyi was placed there, he would not have to have to work for another place to run, so that it would be convenient for him to see Yuan Yuyi, and it would save Yuan Zhonghua **** and Yuan Yuyi from the displeasure of seeing each other, so that he would also reduce a lot of trouble, which was really a good way.

"Very good, very good." Gao Cheng happily agreed. "You also tell Brother Changyou, Ji Lun and the others that the future discussions will be here." He thought in his heart that the mansion was quiet, and it would be good for Yu Shifei Yuan Zhonghua to recuperate physically and mentally. When she is raised, she can give birth to a son-in-law for him.

The ox cart began to stagger again.

In the ox cart, Yuan Yuyi straightened up from Gao Cheng's arms and faced him. Her cheeks were flushed, as if she was very excited, extremely moving, a pair of clear eyes looked at Gao Cheng with pure eyes, and she didn't dodge at all, and she couldn't bear it.

Gao Cheng also looked at her. He didn't see the slightest displeasure in her expression. Didn't she know that he didn't want to take her back to the house because he didn't want to give her a name, even if it was just the name of a concubine, she would have a belonging. And without this title, she is just a foreign wife.

"Why does Childe keep looking at me?" Yuan Yuyi asked with a smile, as if there was really something particularly happy, which made her smile all the time and look sunny.

She called him Childe, she really didn't know he was a general? I don't know if he's the son? Gao Cheng liked that she called herself so, which made him forget his identity and many troubles for a while.

"Why do you keep looking at me?" He asked rhetorically. At the same time, he lovingly brushed the hair on her forehead.

"Childe is as beautiful as a fairy." Yuan Yuyi seemed a little embarrassed. Leaned over and hugged Gao Cheng's neck tightly, leaning into his arms, his head resting on his shoulder socket. Her breath lingered around his neck.

Gao Cheng also hugged her tightly. But his doubts did not go away. She said he was as beautiful as a fairy, did she really not see the scars on his cheeks, or did she really not care about the scars, or did she not care about him at all?

Gao Cheng renamed the renovated old palace of Cao Wei as "Dongbai Hall", which has since become his office. The old name is still used throughout the building. This piece of the old palace was originally the back of Cao Wei's listening to the palace, and now the repaired part has a greenhouse, the north of the Minghe Hall, the west of the Mulan Fang, the east of the Catalpa Fang, and a secondary house.

Dongbaitang is no longer as simple as the office used by the general Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, it is a garden that avoids the noise and listens to the government and can rest in the swallow house, and since then the general Gao Cheng has spent half of his time here. This place is quiet and elegant, and with Yuan Yuyi, it makes him even more forgetful.

No matter how doubtful Yuan Zhonghua was in her heart, Princess Shi and Princess Feng Yi had to put down her mind and go to the Bohai Palace, to meet Concubine Lou.

Ah Jiao and the slaves and maids groomed and changed her clothes, and Yuan Zhonghua did not look at him in the bronze mirror from beginning to end. By the time Ah Jiao woke her up from her deep thoughts, everything was ready. Yuan Zhonghua looked at himself wearing makeup in the bronze mirror and felt so strange. She cared very little about her outfit.

Today is a rare good weather, which will naturally make people feel good. The distance is not far, and it will not take long to arrive. When Yuan Zhonghua got out of the car, he happened to meet his sister-in-law, Li Zu'e, the Duchess of Taiyuan, at the gate of the Bohai Palace.

Li Zu'e hadn't seen her eldest sister-in-law Yuan Zhonghua for several days. I remember that the last time we met was last winter, Yuan Zhonghua was still pregnant, who knew that there would be so many changes later. Since marrying Gao Yang, Moonlight has been living in a simple house, almost staying at home.

Gao Yang never mentioned the family affairs of her eldest brother and sister-in-law to her in the house. Later, I vaguely knew that the eldest sister-in-law, the princess was born prematurely, and the daughter died young. Because he knew that the eldest brother and the general of the prince were on a westward expedition, Yueguang and her husband Gao Yang also mentioned a few words: the father and mother are all in Jinyang, and the eldest brother is out on the expedition, whether to take care of the eldest sister-in-law. Gao Yang said that he would be properly placed, and she didn't ask again.

Moonlight saw that Yuan Zhonghua was holding a high bun of ingots on his head, and his face was even thinner. The skin is whiter than snow, but it is so pale that there is almost no blood, and it seems that a pair of lacquer-like beautiful eyes are too large. The last time we met, it was still a heavy white fox fur, and today Yuan Zhonghua, who is wearing a light yellow honeysuckle flower jacket and a danbi saro skirt, is even thinner because of the thinness of his clothes, which makes people feel like a weak willow supporting the wind. The weather was cold and warm, and a heavy crimson silk was wrapped around her shoulders to keep out the cold.

In fact, for a person as strong as Moonlight, the weather is already extremely warm. In her opinion, Yuan Zhonghua was sick, and even his spirit was much worse than the last time she met in winter. I guess it was because I was pregnant at that time, so I had a lot of expectations in my heart.

"I've seen the princess." Moonlight didn't want to make trouble for herself, so she saluted according to the rules.

"Get up." Yuan Zhonghua actually didn't have a sense of disgust with her, knowing that she was also here to see Concubine Lou, and motioned for the two to go in together.

Ah Jiao and Wan'er each led a few slaves and maids to follow behind.

"You don't have to be formal, just call me sister-in-law." Yuan Zhonghua smiled at the moonlight as he walked.

Hearing her voice slightly weak, Moonlight answered "yes", and said, "Sister-in-law's body is better?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua is younger than moonlight. She has been in the Bohai Palace since she married the prince Gao Cheng, and Gao Cheng disciplined her very strictly when she was young, and there was almost no one else around her except slaves and maids. Gao Cheng's eldest sister Gao Changjun had already entered the palace as the emperor, and she hardly saw each other. Sister Gao Yuanjun followed her mother Concubine Lou and saw Yuan Zhonghua rarely. At this time, he suddenly saw this younger brother and sister, and Yuan Zhonghua was very happy in his heart.

The two of them entered the mansion and walked towards the courtyard where Concubine Lou lived.

Yuan Zhonghua was simple-minded and didn't find anything inappropriate. But the more the moonlight went inside, the more I felt that the house was different from when I came in the past. When I walked to the gate of Concubine Lou's courtyard, I found that the slaves and maids I saw along the way were cautious and depressed, and the atmosphere was tense and strange.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Concubine Lou lived, suddenly the courtyard door opened, and several slaves and maids came out of it, and the elderly led by Concubine Lou were Concubine Lou's close attendants, and were respectfully called "aunts".

When the aunt saw Yuan Zhonghua, she was shocked, "Why is the princess here?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua was stunned and didn't understand. Concubine Lou should naturally come to visit Concubine Lou when she returned to Yecheng, and besides, she grew up under Concubine Lou's knees since she was a child, and the relationship has always been relatively harmonious. She also ordered someone to report that Concubine Lou came to see her today, didn't Concubine Lou know yet?

Only then did Moonlight ask, "Auntie, is there anything wrong?" Or is there someone inside? ”

The aunt wanted to speak and stopped, but was asked by the moonlight, so she had to say, "It's best for the Duchess of Taiyuan and the princess to come together." Since you are here, you naturally want to go in and see you. She thought for a while and asked Yuan Zhonghua, "Does the princess know where the princess is now?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua didn't want to say anything, she only shook her head, she was a little sad in her heart, and naturally she couldn't talk to them about her family affairs at this time.

"The princess has just returned, and the prince will come to see her. Since the princess is not in good health, it is better to order someone to invite the princess to come, meet the princess first, and take the princess back to the house together. "Auntie has an idea.

Yuan Zhonghua replied noncommittally.

The moonlight was in her heart, and when the aunt went, she ordered the people who followed her to invite her husband, Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang, to visit the princess.

Only Ah Jiao knows best in her heart.

has already arrived at the gate of Concubine Lou's courtyard, so it is naturally impossible to retreat. No matter what the aunt said, Yuan Zhonghua actually didn't think much about it in his heart, and entered with the moonlight goose. However, Ah Jiao thought that the aunt's words were reasonable, and quietly ordered someone to invite the son of the world just in case.

When I entered the courtyard, I felt even more wrong. There were several slaves and maids kneeling in the courtyard, all of them dejected. Yuan Zhonghua and Moonlight were even more puzzled. Concubine Lou is generous, although she is very strict in keeping her family, she will not blame her slaves for small mistakes. It seems that these slaves and maids have been kneeling for a long time, and at this time the sun came up to gradually dispel the cold of the morning, and after a while it became hot again, and these slaves and maids were all red, and even their eyes were red.

Yuan Zhonghua and Yueguang looked at each other in shock and fear, but neither spoke. There is no room for retreat, so people can only go in and report it. After a while, the slave maid came out and said that the princess invited the princess and the Duchess of Taiyuan to go in. Yuan Zhonghua also thought that maybe the slave maid was ignorant and made Concubine Lou angry, and Yueguang thought in her heart that this matter was not so simple.

Yuan Zhonghua was in front, moonlight was behind, and he entered the main hall immediately.

The house where Mrs. Lou lives is not very large, but it is suitable, and the furnishings are not very gorgeous, but it has a rather fresh flavor. Yuan Zhonghua and Moonlight came in, and the slaves and maids opened the curtain and led them all the way inside, which was where Concubine Lou usually lived and rested. The two of them suddenly saw Concubine Lou and another old woman on the seat.

The old woman's face was haggard, and she couldn't hide her sick face, and her face was wrinkled and deep, and she looked much older than Concubine Lou. The eyebrows are not as peaceful and dignified as Concubine Lou. The old woman's eyebrows were thin and black, but they were as obvious as two exaggerated ink lines, the eyebrows were hanging at the ends, and the eyebrows were so sharp, and with the eyes drooping like triangular eyes, she looked completely fierce, stern and harsh.
