Liu Meiniang patted Xiao Ru on the shoulder.

Although I don't know what Xiao Ru has experienced before, Xiao Ru doesn't say it, and she doesn't ask, but as a friend, Liu Meiniang hopes that Xiao Ru can find happiness sooner, after all, Xiao Ru's age is not too young in this era, and if she doesn't get married, there will definitely be a lot of gossip people.

It is chic to live your own color and live according to your own heart, but there are many people in the world who are involuntary.

"Mrs. Zhang, Lord Shaoyang, please move to the hall." The maid came over and respectfully invited Liu Meiniang and Xiao Ru over.

The two nodded, put aside the topic just now, and entered the hall together.

The team to welcome relatives has returned, Song Qingshan rode a high-headed horse and walked in the front, followed by Wen Zhao, He Yu, Wei Mingyu and several sons of the family.

In a burst of firecrackers, gongs and drums, Song Qingshan and Xiao Yuyan finished worshipping heaven and earth.

"How can I see that this woman doesn't look like the third princess."

Liu Meiniang and Xiao Ru sat together and knocked their teeth, Xiao Ru looked at the two people worshipping heaven and earth and said casually.

"Huh?" Liu Meiniang sniffed out a different meaning in Xiao Ru's words. No matter what era or where, gossip will always be essential for women.

"I heard that the third princess is running away from marriage." Xiao Ru crawled on Liu Meiniang's ear and whispered,

There is really nothing that can't be said about this, she is the county lord, and Liu Meiniang is also the county lord now, this kind of thing, they can't say it to Fang Yao, but they can say it to Liu Meiniang.

"I'm really ignorant." Liu Meiniang shook her head and took a sip of white water.

Xiao Yuyan has a pampered personality and has done so many stupid things, to be honest, if it weren't for her identity as a princess, the last time something happened in Xiao Jingyi's mansion, Zhang Jirin would have killed her on the spot, just because her identity was unusual, so she didn't do it.

Besides, there are some stupid things that Xiao Yuyan did, and Emperor Changping also knew it, if Emperor Changping still loved Xiao Yuyan before, now he is afraid that he has lost the slightest affection for Xiao Yuyan.

Xiao Yuyan got married, and Emperor Changping just asked someone to send a congratulatory gift, but it was normal, Emperor Changping never even participated in the wedding of his son who moved out of the palace.

didn't expect Xiao Yuyan to run away from marriage, no wonder Song Qingshan's face was a little unsightly when she came in, and after finally finishing the church, Liu Meiniang stretched her waist and was finally able to go back. She had no intention of staying for the wedding feast.

As for whether the bride who got married in the church is Xiao Yuyan or not, it doesn't matter, anyway, it will not be, and it will always be in the future.

As for Song Qingshan, Liu Meiniang can only say that she underestimated this man before, such a person can endure and do whatever it takes for the sake of the end, and his achievements will not be small in the future.

"Are you leaving?" Xiao Ru asked Liu Meiniang.

"I have to go back and rest."

Liu Meiniang yawned elegantly.

"Okay, I'll send you out, I still can't leave." Xiao Ru covered her mouth and smiled.

Liu Meiniang's appearance is so cute, considering Liu Meiniang's body, even if she leaves, it doesn't matter, no one will say anything, but Xiao Ru can't go.

The third princess got married, the prince did not arrive, the second prince did not arrive, the third prince, the fifth prince, the seventh prince, the tenth prince, etc., although they arrived, it was not nice to say, and the row was still not big enough. She, the lord of the opposite sex, naturally can't leave, and has to stay to support the field.

As soon as the two of them walked outside, they were greeted by a man in black, but Xiao Ru stood in place as if petrified.

"Shaoyang?" Liu Meiniang shouted twice, but Xiao Ru didn't react.

"Lord Shaoyang, this must be the wife of General Secretary Zhang?" The man in black stepped forward and saluted, a smile on his lips.

Liu Meiniang nodded, but Xiao Ru was still staring at the man.

Liu Meiniang couldn't see Xiao Ru's abnormality, but she didn't speak, and quietly accompanied Xiao Ru.

"When did you return to Beijing?" Xiao Ru spoke, with trembling in her tone.

"Yesterday." The man in black said.

"Oh." Xiao Ru, who has always been talkative, seemed to be speechless, so the two exchanged a few words and fell silent.

"Let's go first." In the end, it was Xiao Ru who opened her mouth first.

The man in black nodded, did not speak, and turned sideways to get out of the way.

Xiao Ru walked over with Liu Meiniang in her arms, and Liu Meiniang obviously felt that Xiao Ru's hand on her arm had tightened.

"Are you still going in?" When she arrived at the door of the Horse Mansion, Liu Meiniang glanced at Xiao Ru worriedly and asked. Xiao Ru shook her head.

"Then you can go to my house for a meeting." Liu Meiniang held Xiao Ru's hand, looking at Xiao Ru like this, she didn't worry about her going home alone.

Xiao Ru snorted.

"Mei Niang, didn't you urge me today to hurry up on my marriage?" Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Ru suddenly spoke.

Liu Meiniang didn't speak, and listened to Xiao Ru continue.

"The person just now, called Long Qi, is the grandson of General Long Aotian."

Xiao Ru spoke, Liu Meiniang was slightly surprised, she knew the old general Long Aotian, and she was transferred back to the capital almost at the same time as Zhang Jirin, the old general Long fought on the battlefield for most of his life, and made countless military exploits, the protector of the hearts of the people of Daqi, and the loyal and virtuous minister praised by everyone.

General Long has only one son under his knees, and his son is also very competitive, and his son inherits his father's business, but he died on the battlefield at the age of thirty, leaving behind his widow Mrs. Long, who was still in Mrs. Long's belly at that time, and after giving birth to Mrs. Long, Mrs. Long's health became worse and worse, and she died in less than two years.

Long Qi grew up beside Long Aotian since he was a child, and naturally inherited the mantle of his grandfather and father, fought on the battlefield, and defended his family and country.

Because of guarding the border of southern Xinjiang, Long Qi only returned to the capital once after he was seventeen years old, until now, he is twenty-five years old, whether it is placed in modern or ancient times, people like Long Qi, Liu Meiniang is admired, a soldier, is great and fearless. However, this Long Qi did not have so much awe-inspiring killing intent on his body, and when they met just now, although it was not like a spring breeze, it still gave people a very comfortable feeling.

Long Qi is not in the capital all the year round, and there is basically no contact with these sons and daughters in the capital, although Nie Changfeng is also the queen of the gate, there is still a big difference between him and Long Qi, Nie Changfeng and his father are not permanently stationed outside, but in the event of a major battle, they will send the two out, and in the end they have been guarding the capital.

Liu Meiniang doesn't know much about Long Qi, but looking at Xiao Ru like this, Liu Meiniang also knows that there is a story between Xiao Ru and Long Qi.

"I ...... with Long Qi before" Xiao Ru glanced at Liu Meiniang, then turned her head and said, as if she had fallen into a memory.

Xiao Ru and Long Qi knew each other very early, Xiao Ru had seen Long Qi when he was very young, because Xiao Ru's father died early, Xiao Ru was taken into the palace to raise, at that time, as long as the old general Long Aotian entered the palace, he would inevitably take Long Qi with him, and no one could ignore the old general's love for his grandson.

When she was in the Royal Garden, six-year-old Xiao Ru saw Long Qi for the first time, and Long Qi helped Xiao Ru beat away the other princesses who bullied her.

Later, the two children often played together, when Long Qi was still young, Long Aotian naturally did not take Long Qi with him when he went to the frontier, and before each time he left, he had to entrust Long Qi to the queen to take care of, and the queen simply took him into the palace and let Xiao Ru be his companion.

Twelve or thirteen years old, children basically have a hazy understanding of love, Long Qi and Xiao Ru, in the eyes of outsiders, at least the queen thinks that the two are very compatible, and often jokes that the two will marry when they grow up.

Later, things also went in the expected direction, and the relationship between Long Qi and Xiao Ru got better and better. It's just that the two still haven't shown their hearts to each other.

Later, when Long Qi grew up, when he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he followed General Long to the frontier for training. Xiao Ru is still young anyway, and the separation between the two is not too painful, after all, Long Qi will still come back.

In order to have a common topic for a dragon Qi, Xiao Ru also began to learn some art of war riding and archery, and a few years later, the name of the county lord of Shaoyang also spread, and everyone said that although the county lord of Shaoyang was a woman, she did not let her eyebrows.

And when Xiao Ru was sixteen years old, something happened.

When Long Qi came back that winter, he brought a woman with him, whom he had saved on the battlefield.

The woman is not a noble person, but Long Qi inadvertently looked at the woman's body, and he had a strong sense of responsibility, so he could only bring the woman back and prepare to marry the woman.

It's just that the woman is in very bad health and often gets sick, and General Long Aotian will not agree to such a woman becoming the next master of the Long family, so he can only allow Long Qi to take that woman as a concubine.

But even so, an arrogant woman like Xiao Ru is naturally intolerable, Xiao Ru will not question, but she will no longer see Long Qi, although Long Qi can take into account other things everywhere, she is always flustered in the face of Xiao Ru.

In this way, the misunderstanding between the two people became bigger and bigger, and they gradually drifted apart. Later, Long Qi never married that woman, until the woman died of illness three years ago, Long Qi still did not get married.

Long Qi came back this time, I don't know if it was recalled by Emperor Changping, or if there was another purpose.

Xiao Ru said these calmly, but Liu Meiniang could feel sadness, chagrin and even a trace of hatred from Xiao Ru's words.

So Xiao Ru has been a person for so many years, she seems to be living a very chic life, no worries, everyone praises her, and she is an example for women in the boudoir to learn, but now I know that Xiao Ru still has such a past in her heart.

"Then this time, he is back, you ......" Liu Meiniang wanted to ask the two of them if there was any possibility, but she couldn't say it.

Xiao Ru shook her head calmly.

"Mei Niang, do you know, some people, once they miss it, they really miss it, and there is no way."

Xiao Ru said in a sad tone.

Liu Meiniang can understand what Xiao Ru means, although Xiao Ru may like Long Qi now, and Long Qi still loves Xiao Ru, it is impossible for them to break up, just like many people break up, they clearly still love each other deeply, and they have to break up because they know that it is not suitable.

Xiao Ru and Long Qi are destined to miss it, if Long Qi hadn't brought a woman back, maybe the two of them would have gotten married by now, maybe they would have children, but there are not so many ifs in the world.

Liu Meiniang ate Xiao Ru at home, and sent Xiao Ru back after eating.
