"You're so beautiful today, get in the car."
On the carriage, Fan Ruoxi's hand was gently held by Helian Jue, the carriage stopped, and the coachman's voice came, "Lord Wang, it's here." β
This place to eat is quite remote, got out of the carriage and entered the restaurant, Helian Jue instructed, "Xiao Er, take us to the Peony Hall." β
"Okay."
Holding a hand, Fan Ruoxi looked at Xiao Er, who was leading the way in front, and said in his heart, Ah Jue seems to be very familiar with this place, but this restaurant should not be opened by him.
The two went upstairs, sat down in the private room, and ordered food, but after Xiao Er served the food, a door on the wooden partition wall was knocked twice.
"Come in."
Fan Ruoxi was surprised, Ah Jue came here to have an appointment with someone? Then why did you bring her?
There was a man in his forties, he looked sharp-eyed, strong and straight, not angry and arrogant, wearing a dark gray cloth robe, he was startled when he saw the woman wearing a veil, and looked at Helian Jue with some doubts.
After the two met, Fan Ruoxi felt the man's staring gaze, she didn't know whether to continue eating, took a sip of tea, and said to Helian Jue, "I'll go to the room over there." β
"No, you don't."
Fan Ruoxi felt bad, so she insisted on going to the private room next to her.
The man looked at Helian Jue with a complicated expression, "Lord Wang? β
"She is my fiancΓ©e, the concubine of General Zhenyuan."
Gao Yongguang's expression froze, he heard about the emperor's marriage, is this woman credible? That's the one the emperor gave him a marriage! But if the prince can bring her, she should be a person approved by the prince!
Helian Jue took out a token from his sleeve, the token was a jade pendant wrapped in gold edge, and there was a crack in the middle, and the middle-aged man was shocked when he saw the token.
The man got up and saluted Helian Jue respectfully, "Lord Wang, if there was no old prince back then, I would have lost this life a long time ago!" β
"Gao Yongguang, you've worked hard all these years."
These words made the middle-aged man's eyes reddened slightly, and he looked at Helian Jue, as if he was looking at another person through him.
Fan Ruoxi could only ignore the incivility on the other side, but the sound of their speech could not be heard.
She held the teacup and looked at the floating tea leaves in the tea, and thoughts were surging in her eyes.
Gao Yongguang? This person is actually Gao Yongguang? He is the general soldier of the Wuzhou Guard in the north, and Fan Ruoxi has also checked some information because of Helian Jue, and this Nanyue State is the guard system. And Gao Yongguang was on the northern side, but he didn't expect the general soldiers of Yizhou to come here privately, and they met in front of her, did Ah Jue want to let himself know more about what he did?
The corner of Fan Ruoxi's eyes twitched, does Ah Jue want to rebel? His parents seem to have died heroically in the north.
More than 20 years ago, Gao Yongguang was rescued by the old prince on the battlefield, and later followed the old prince and became a deputy general.
Later, he was transferred and went somewhere else. The war was so tragic that he took the risk of being killed, gathered his few henchmen, and prepared to go to the rescue, but found that it was too late.
It was a premeditated war, and the Helian army in the north suffered heavy casualties, and after receiving the news, he temporarily stood still and slowly climbed to the position of the general army.
Because he was not exposed, he was later transferred to the north, and he has been holding back all these years, because he knows that the prince's son is still alive and there is hope, but the emperor has been holding people, and it is difficult for them to have a chance to meet.
