Zhong Lan was in a daze in front of the dresser, and didn't know that Duan Rongjing had finished taking a shower until he felt a hot breath coming from behind him.

She hurriedly turned around and saw his hot eyes, Zhong Lan's face turned even redder, a little at a loss, and saw that his hair was still wet and hurriedly said, "I'll go get a dry cloth to wipe your hair." ”

After finishing speaking, he left, and he didn't see Wei Yuan's face that wanted to stop talking.

After a while, Zhong Lan came back with two dry cloths and said to Duan Rongjing, "Master Hou, sit down." ”

"Hmm." Duan Rongjing listened to her words and found a nearby stool to sit down.

Zhong Lan gently wiped his hair, and his fingers inevitably touched his scalp, and the atmosphere between the two was a little delicate.

Seeing that everything was like this, she remembered Ye Qiu's words and simply let it go: "Is Master Hou okay at the border pass?" Are there any injuries? Why did you come back all of a sudden? ”

Because she opened her mouth first, Wei Yuanhou was no longer silent: "The border pass is very good, I didn't suffer any injuries, and I came back because the eldest prince and the third prince fought for power." ”

In fact, he was injured, and he almost couldn't save it, but he didn't want her to worry, and it was all over anyway.

"The eldest prince and the third prince?" Although she experienced a coup d'état, Zhong Lan was actually quite confused, and only felt a little afraid, "So is the dust settled now?" ”

"It's okay anymore, the eldest prince is suspected of murdering the saint and has been imprisoned, and the third prince will succeed to the throne in a few days."

"Is there any danger in our house?" Zhong Lan wiped his head and his hand paused.

"If I don't go to the border anymore, it'll be fine." As the saying goes, the cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey cooks, he and the three princes are only temporarily cooperating, if he controls the military power of the 200,000 army again, he will definitely be suspected by the three princes.

"Then don't you go, okay? I'm worried about you. Zhong Lan finally said this.

Duan Rongjing turned his head suddenly, saw the worried look in Zhong Lan's eyes for a while, and then involuntarily hugged her in his arms: "Okay, I'm not going, I'll accompany you and the children in the capital." ”

Zhong Lan's heart was pounding, but the corners of her mouth were hooked, and then she hugged him back.

Everything that followed fell into place, and Ye Qiu curled the corners of his mouth outside the house.

When the two came out the next day, the atmosphere was different, and the maids in the whole courtyard were holding back their faces.

"This year, you have served your wife well, pass on my order, and add three months' monthly salary."

"Master Xie." The maids smiled, calculating the reward they received during this time, which was worth two years' annual salary!

Wei Yuanhou was still very busy in the next few days, but he would go back to Qingfeng Courtyard every day, and Xiao Shizi and Xiao Xiao finally had their big names, but everyone loved to call them Brother Xiaoyan and Sister An.

Three days later, the third prince ascended the throne and named Duan Rongjing as the protector of the country, Duan Rongjing took the title, but he refused his military power on the grounds that he was seriously injured at the border pass and could no longer go to the battlefield.

The first emperor passed away, and for forty-nine days in the imperial city, every courtier ordered his wife to enter the palace to mourn, but because Mrs. Lao Hou and Zhong Lan were of high status, they usually knelt for an hour or two to enter the side hall to rest, but they were not particularly tired, but they were suffering from Mrs. Shen.

"Are you tired today?" Because of the progress of the relationship, Duan Rongjing has now learned to care about people.

"It's okay, those palace maids take care of me and my grandmother."

"I encountered this kind of thing just out of confinement, and it hurt you." He felt guilty.

Zhong Lan smiled: "It's not bitter, I'm already relaxed, there are harder ones than me!" ”

"I wronged you on the day I returned to the door, and when this time passes, I will accompany you back to Zhongfu."

Zhong Lan didn't expect him to remember this incident, and he was very moved: "There was a reason for the incident before, and everyone understands it." ”

"But you were still wronged." Duan Rongjing wanted to slash himself twice when he thought that his little wife was pregnant with his child and couldn't even invite a doctor and a midwife, he always thought that everything was under control, but he didn't want to almost kill her.

"Auntie, Zhong Lan, she is going back home tomorrow." Recently, Zhong Huaiwen has been busy with the national funeral, basically ignoring the family, and Zhong Jue is too lazy to bring Zhong Lang and Zhong Yin, so Zhong Yin finally found a chance to come to see Aunt Wei.

Her tone was full of jealousy and resentment: "Wei Yuanhou has returned, and she has been named the Duke of Protector, Zhong Lan has also become a super first-class Duchess of Protector, I heard that she also gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and now the entire Protectorate Mansion respects her, her son has been named the prince, and even her daughter has been named the lord of the county, and she is not a relative of the emperor, why is the emperor so generous!" ”

Zhong Yin said that her cheeks were about to twist, why? Why is Zhong Lan's life so good?

Aunt Wei closed her eyes, knowing that they had completely lost, now that Zhong Lan has a pair of children with her, and the Protector Mansion has the merit of the dragon, unless she rebels, it is impossible for her to fall off the altar.

There is also Zhong Jue, although he is not allowed to marry because of the national funeral, but his relationship with the county lord of Wenping is stable.

Pity her Yin'er, she will be seventeen after the national funeral, what way out can a concubine who has not yet been married? And it will take at least two years for Lang'er to stand up, and Yin'er can't afford to wait.

"Yin'er, listen to my mother, after Zhong Lan comes back this time, you treat her well, and make sure she thinks that you really know your mistake." Aunt Wei explained seriously.

"I don't want it, why." Zhong Yin said unconvinced.

"With the fact that she is now the Duchess of the Kingdom, she can find you a good family now."

"I'm not rare." Zhong Yin is still stubborn, and she is very awkward at the thought of begging the person she once looked down on.

"It's not rare, you have to beg, don't you want to marry and be an old girl? Or do you want to wear a widower? Aunt Wei's tone was very serious, full of helplessness.

Zhong Yin finally couldn't restrain herself from shouting: "Auntie, what you said is light, that's Zhong Lan, Zhong Lan who was bullied by us once, do you think she will forgive us?" Who knows if she'll be secretly bad. ”

"She won't, she is now the Duchess of the Kingdom, the hottest woman in the capital, she deliberately made you bad, just to make her own faceless, so she will definitely not ignore you." Aunt Wei said very firmly.

"Yin'er, you listen to your mother, go and make amends for her tomorrow, it's best to say it in front of Grandpa Guo." Her eyes flashed, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "The Zhong family's family background is not as good as the Duan family, and Zhong Lan will not let the Guo Grandpa see her ruthless side in order to gain a firm foothold in the Guogong Mansion." ”
