"I know you are thanking me in your heart."
Xia Zhiliao turned away and said, "I didn't say it in my heart."
Wen Heng didn't argue with her, "Since we have discussed it, let's set off tomorrow?"
"So soon?" Xia Zhiliao was a little surprised. "What about the palace? Don't you need to tell me?"
She belatedly asked, "Have you finished talking?"
Wen Heng nodded. "How can I dare to promise you before we finish talking? It's not good to break my promise, right?"
"Did the Queen Mother agree?"
Wen Heng nodded, "When the emperor ascended the throne, he was still young. The royal grandmother and he were surrounded by wolves, and Princess Yiyang helped them a lot. Therefore, the royal grandmother also hopes that Princess Yiyang can recover."
Xia Zhiliao was clear about this. Otherwise, how could Princess Yi Yang be so respected?
It can be said that the current Emperor Shunde was also supported by this couple.
"Okay, I'll get ready."
"Are you two the only ones going?" Xia Jiang asked.
Wen Heng nodded, "There will be some guards escorting her, but it is not appropriate to publicize it to the public. Why, are you worried that I will sell her out?"
"No, no, no!" Xia Jiang smiled. "Brother Wen treats Zhiliao better than we do. Why would I worry that you would sell her out?"
"I'm afraid it's okay for just the two of you to go on the road?"
"Okay, she shouldn't need anyone to take care of anything else, right?"
Xia Zhiliao understood what he meant instantly, "No way!"
Wen Heng smiled, "Then there is no problem. You just need to wait for the news. However, you should stay in the general's mansion during this period. If you can't leave Beijing with General Wei in time, don't move around."
Xia Jiang nodded, "I remember."
That night, Xia Zhiliao briefly explained the matter.
General Wei nodded, "Yes, Princess Yiyang...is seriously ill. If Zhiliao can cure her, then that would be great. She is such a good person, she really shouldn't have ended up like this."
Xia Zhiliao nodded. In the novel, Princess Yi Yang was always in a daze and never woke up in her entire life until she was dying.
She didn't know if she had the ability to cure the patient, but if there was a chance, she would give it a try.
"Then do as Zhiliao said. Jinjun, you and your niece-in-law should not run around in the mansion with the child. Jianqing is still young, and I'm afraid he might make mistakes if he's too rash."
How could Xia Jinjun not know the seriousness of the matter? Apart from anything else, he never wanted to see the Prime Minister's daughter again. What was wrong with hiding in this mansion with food and drink, and being able to stroll around the garden?
"Uncle Wei, don't worry, I know what's going on."
"I'm really sorry to trouble you all for my matter." Xia Chen said embarrassedly. She was just worried that all her efforts would be in vain and everyone would be disappointed.
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? We are family, so please don't be polite. It's not as serious as Dad said. It's just that I am busy with military affairs and I am afraid that I can't take good care of you. When I am free, I can take you and Brother out for a walk."
"No need for that. Beijing is good, but life at home is still more comfortable." Xia Jinjun said.
General Wei smiled, "Well, Jinjun said this in a comfortable way, fallen leaves return to their roots."
"Then you should go find your roots." Old Mrs. Xia said with a smile.
"Wherever you are, that is my root. I am a son-in-law." General Wei replied.
Xia Zhiliao was smiling as if he had eaten honey. The elderly group was actually quite tasty and sweet!
Old Madam Xia gave him a scolding look, obviously feeling that it was inappropriate for him to say such things in front of the younger generation.
But everyone just smiled and hoped that the two of them would get along well.
The next day, Wen Heng came on horseback to pick up Xia Zhiliao. He was a young man with high spirits.
Xia Zhiliao took a look and decided to take a carriage with a bitter face. You know, the carriages in ancient times were not like modern cars with leather seats, so you couldn't feel the bumps at all. But even so, you would still feel backache after sitting for a long time.
But you can imagine that in ancient times, especially when walking on mountain roads, the buttocks would be split into eight parts.
Wen Heng saw her painful expression and said, "You don't like riding in a carriage, but you want to ride a horse? Can you do it?"
【What's that expression on your face?】
Xia Zhiliao made a face and said, "Grandpa Wei taught me that."
She had never learned this in modern times, but Wei Rong did teach her on the way to Beijing. Maybe it was because Wei Rong's horse was very obedient, but she learned very quickly.
"Then come up!"
Xia Zhiliao didn't move. She didn't want to ride a horse with Wen Heng.
Wen Heng was speechless. What was going on in this little girl's head every day? So he asked someone to bring another horse over.
This time Xia Zhiliao got on the horse. Although she still needed someone to hold her on, her riding movements were free and easy. She didn't look like a country girl at all, but rather had the style of a general.
On the long street, a cute little girl was riding a horse at full speed, attracting many people's attention, and they all praised the little girl for being so amazing.
In the crowd, Bai Huiru and Lu Seyan, mother and daughter, also saw it.
Lu Seyan had known that the Xia family was coming, but she had not told her mother, for fear that her mother would cause trouble at this time.
It would be fine if it happened in the countryside, but this was the capital, and she had just returned to the Marquis's Mansion.
"She... isn't she that someone?" Bai Huiru said.
Lu Seyan didn't respond, and Bai Huiru thought she didn't remember, "It's the little girl from the Xia family."
Lu Seyan's voice was cold, "What's wrong?"
"She came to the capital? Then her father came to the capital too?"
"What else do you want to do?" Lu Seyan asked coldly, "Don't forget your own identity. Now you have entered the Hou Mansion."
Bai Huiru pouted, "What's the point of going in? Your father has passed away. I am so beautiful, but I have to stay alone in an empty room, without any name or status. I have nothing to gain. It's better to be free and easy outside."
Lu Seyan frowned. What kind of words were these?
"I don't care what you think, just don't mess around."
"I know, I know. Your matter is more important. Once you've done your thing, I can consider myself first." Bai Huiru said.
"How else do you want to think about yourself?"
Bai Huiru curled her lips and said, "Don't worry, Xia Jinjun, that loser, didn't pass the exam either. I will definitely not do anything to him."
Lu Seyan was a little speechless. "Even if you pass the exam, you can't do anything. Remember your own identity. I don't ask you to help me, but can you please stop causing trouble for me?"
"Oh, I know, I know." Bai Huiru answered perfunctorily, "But why did the Xia family come to the capital? Are they seeking refuge with that person?"
Lu Seyan sighed, "Haven't you heard? It's all over the capital now."
She had just heard about it two days ago, but she was still shocked.
I didn't expect that girl to have such great abilities. It's simply unbelievable.
