Chapter 146: Getting Acquainted with the Lady of Miao Jiang (3)
However, now, Yi secretly thought in his heart, although he still couldn't fully understand their lord's feelings for Shangguan Lihua, but at this moment, maybe he seemed to understand why. Shangguan Lihua did have enough courage and strategy to be qualified to stand by their god-like side. At least, so far, Yi has never seen or heard of any woman in this world who has such courage and strategy as Shangguan Lihua except Shangguan Lihua. If you want to just say that it is courage and strategy, there may be, but like Shangguan Lihua, who has courage and strategy and knows the affairs of their lord well, even if they have never explained many things to her, it does not prevent Shangguan Lihua from understanding their lord at all.
Just at this point, maybe there is no second woman like Shangguan Lihua in this world who respects them as the lord. At this time, Yi's heart was even secretly thinking about how to pass on the news of what Shangguan Lihua said and said to Li Shangqing and Jiang Biming tonight to Xuanyuan Yuchen. At this time, Yi seemed to have completely forgotten, and at first heard that their ghost lord Xuanyuan Yuqi had a lot of complaints when he arranged for him to be responsible for protecting Shangguan Lihua in the future.

On the other hand, on the day Shangguan Lihua left Jinling City, there seemed to be no news coming out of the Dingguo Mansion after a short period of chaos and people in the mansion. In fact, it is also the official of Dingguo who is not really willing to spend effort and energy to arrange people to go out of the house to find Shangguan Lihua. If not, just because Shangguan Lihua waited for Jiang Biming and Li Shangqing in the teahouse private room for half a day, how could the Dingguo Mansion not get the news? And then after getting the news, where can you not find anyone? To put it bluntly, it is still the official arrogance of the Duke of Dingguo who does not want to arrange for someone to bother to find Shangguan Lihua.
After several private conversations with Shangguan Lihua, Shangguan Ao was already very sure that his daughter was no longer the simple Shangguan Lihua she was at the beginning. Although Shangguan Ao didn't know why Shangguan Lihua suddenly changed his temper at this time, and he also tried to know a thing or two from Shangguan Lihua's mouth, but every time he mentioned it, Shangguan Lihua's expression was enough to make Shangguan Ao feel distressed. If it could, Shangguan Ao didn't want Shangguan Lihua to have such a big change, because a person's change must have experienced major tribulations.
However, under such a situation, who can say that Shangguan Lihua, who can think carefully about everything and can quickly think of ways to deal with it, is not good? The reason why Shangguan Ao is so entangled is probably more because of his distress for Shangguan Lihua in his heart. He has always loved his wife and daughter like him, if he can, Shangguan Ao just hopes that his wife, son and daughter can be well protected by him, and he does not need to bear the responsibility that he did not need to bear for the entire Dingguo Mansion like Shangguan Lihua at this time. It's just that now that the situation in the court has gradually become clear, this battle for the heir may have already involved their Dingguo Mansion, and it is unlikely that they want to protect themselves here. What's more, from the first conversation with Shangguan Lihua's study, he was already very sure of Shangguan Lihua's attitude towards the court and this battle for succession, how could he bear to let Shangguan Lihua fight alone? No matter what, behind Shangguan Lihua, there is still his Dingguo Mansion.
The discerning Dingguo Gong Shangguan is arrogant, how can he not understand that the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen took the initiative to invite Ying to Yunzhou above the court, saying that it was to control the floods in Yunzhou for many years, but it is difficult to say whether the meaning behind this is simply to control the floods in Yunzhou. These things, even a deep boudoir woman like Shangguan Lihua can think of and analyze clearly, how can a person like Dingguo Gong Shangguan Ao, who has been immersed in the whirlpool of officialdom and fame and fortune all year round, not understand?
Even at the moment of the early dynasty, Shangguan Ao did not react in time, but after scaring the early dynasty, and after experiencing the incident with Shangguan Lihua in Huanliyuan, he talked privately with Shangguan Lihua again, where is there anything he doesn't understand, and he has already come back to the taste.
How could Shangguan Ao not know that the purpose of the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen's visit to Yunzhou was not simple. Perhaps, once the matter of the floods in Yunzhou is dealt with almost completely, after the second prince Xuanyuan Yuqi and the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen return to Beijing, maybe many things will be settled. The third prince, Xuanyuan Yuchen, will use this handling of Yunzhou's affairs as a breakthrough to re-enter the court and absorb the government. Perhaps, the real court situation did not start from the capital, but as early as the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen decided to go to Yunzhou, he had officially pushed himself into the whirlpool of the battle for succession. This Yunzhou incident was the first head-to-head battle between the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen and the crown prince Xuanyuan Yuling.
Shangguan Ao thought that Shangguan Lihua must have decided to go to Yunzhou to find the three princes Xuanyuan Yuchen because he had thought about these things very clearly early on. He had no doubt that Shangguan Lihua couldn't think through the things inside, but Shangguan Lihua still chose to leave only a letter for himself and Wen Qingrong without hesitation, and then left the mansion and went to Yunzhou to follow the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen, which has already indicated Shangguan Lihua's attitude and views on the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen's participation in the battle for the heir in a certain sense.
Dingguo Gong Shangguan Ao was once again proud of having a daughter like Shangguan Lihua. However, he couldn't help but feel a little worried about the next path for Shangguan Lihua and the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen. This is different from the previous emotions that Shangguan Ao and Wen Qingrong were proud of Shangguan Lihua.
To tell the truth, Shangguan Ao in the past was also proud of a daughter like Shangguan Lihua, but in this pride and pride, there was always something missing, originally Shangguan Ao didn't have such an idea, and he couldn't figure out what was missing, but now, Shangguan Lihua's book and departure made Shangguan Ao instantly understand that he and Wen Qingrong had always regretted something. Isn't it Shangguan Lihua's courage and strategy like this?
Of course, then again, Shangguan Ao and Wen Qingrong didn't feel that Shangguan Lihua had no strategy in the past, but compared to Shangguan Lihua, who would choose to act spontaneously because of other things and would 'willfully' leave only books and run away, he felt more like a general.
