Although he didn't know why the young lady was in such a hurry, since she was in such a hurry, Ma Liu naturally drove to the Anguo Marquis Mansion as fast as possible.
Before reaching the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, I saw a huge number of Qilin guards on the street, which seemed to have no end.
The Marquis of Anguo was riding on horseback, wearing armor, with a burly figure and a sharp face.
The man was filled with murderous aura, like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed.
Looking at each other from a distance, Jiang Qingyao shouted "Stop the car".
The carriage stopped.
Jiang Qingyao walked over quickly with her skirt lifted up. Before she had walked a few meters, He Zheng had already galloped up to her on his horse.
He dismounted and looked at her deeply, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Qingyao took a small step closer to him, raised her head and whispered, "If I said something strange, would you treat me as an outsider and burn me to death?"
He Zheng's eyes darkened slightly, "No."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingyao smiled with satisfaction and waved at him, "I have something to tell you."
He Zheng leaned over, inclining his tall body towards her and listening attentively.
"The Northern Desert Army will set up an ambush on Mount Fuxi using the poisonous miasma..." The warm breath carried her gentle voice past his ears.
Xi Feng, who was not far away, was stunned. When did Miss Jiang become so close to the adults?
They are almost stuck together.
What are they whispering about?
I'm so curious.
Jiang Qingyao muttered for a long time, and told him everything she knew and thought, otherwise it would be a shame for her to rack her brains for half the night!
When she learned that Marquis Anguo had died unexpectedly, she felt only regret that Daxia had lost a trusted minister.
But now, thinking that he might never come back, Jiang Qingyao felt unhappy, an inexplicable emotion.
Before she could even think about what that emotion was, she was interrupted.
He Zheng's expression changed. He touched her head and whispered, "Don't tell anyone else what you just said except me."
Jiang Qingyao nodded: "Yeah." She didn't trust others.
It was still a little chilly in the early morning. He Zheng raised his hand to take off his cloak, wrapped it around her, and tied a knot with his fingers deftly.
Xi Feng was shocked again.
If he were to say, the relationship between the adults and Miss Jiang was a little too ambiguous.
What on earth happened to them when he didn't know?
Xi Feng was extremely curious.
After a while, the team set off.
It happened to be sunrise and the sky was suddenly bright.
The light fell on He Zheng's face, giving him a layer of soft light, as if he were the Gushe immortal.
Jiang Qingyao's heart trembled slightly.
The streets were bustling with people who came to see them off spontaneously, and stood on both sides to watch Marquis Anguo and the Qilin guards leave.
The former General Zhaolie would take action when Daxia needed him.
Jiang Qingyao stood there for a long time, until He Zheng's figure completely disappeared, then she slowly returned to the carriage.
Because of what happened in her previous life, she was always cautious and could not be defenseless against others, and did not want anyone to see her secrets.
But there is only one Marquis of Anguo in Daxia, and only one He Qiyun, who will treat her well.
She wants him to return safely.
"Sir, I didn't expect Miss Jiang to be so clingy. She even pulled you aside to talk in private before leaving." Xi Feng approached with a sly look.
"What did Miss Jiang say to you?"
He Zheng didn't even look at him, holding the reins with one hand, and said coldly: "Don't gossip."
Xi Feng was almost dying of curiosity, and curled his lips: "Even if you didn't say it, I can guess it. Miss Jiang must have said that she couldn't bear to leave you and would wait for you to come back to marry me, and so on."
He Zheng's face was still stern, but there was a smile at the corner of his lips.
No, she seemed terribly afraid he would die.
I pulled him aside and said many things that were beyond imagination, subversive yet real, as if they had already happened once.
Her dark eyes stared at him, and that look... was really cute.
On the other side, Jiang Qingyao still remembered He Zheng's words and decided to open the wooden box after he set off.
Back in the Haitangju dormitory, Jiang Qingyao opened the box, which contained documents and a request for permission.
The document stated that if he could not come back, all the previous betrothal gifts would belong to her, and she would never return to the Anguo Marquisate.
Jiang Qingyao looked at the betrothal gift list and realized she couldn't spend it all in her lifetime.
The Marquis of Anguo left her a huge fortune.
And that request for permission is extremely precious. If she encounters any difficulties, she can ask His Majesty to make a decision for her.
Jiang Qingyao was stunned for a moment, with ripples in her eyes.
Marquis Anguo was afraid that someone would bully her after he left the capital. She really wanted to know what he had used in exchange for this imperial decree.
He... is really a very good person.
All of this is superficial protection, asking her to seek refuge from His Majesty to prevent revenge from Princess Yongjia and Prince An.
There are both obvious cards and hidden cards.
Jiang Qingyao didn't think that with Marquis Anguo's strategic planning and careful consideration, there would be any omissions.
He must have sent someone in secret to protect her safety.
But he didn't say a word to her because he knew she would be able to guess it.
How could I be so clever in the eyes of Marquis Anguo?
If it were a stupid person, he would be sad and scared by now.
The three maids became worried when they saw the young lady hiding in the bedroom for a while.
“Snap—”
The bedroom door opened.
The maids were about to go forward and comfort Jiang Qingyao with words they had prepared in advance, telling her not to be too sad and to cheer up.
But Jiang Qingyao was in high spirits and said in a crisp voice: "Marquis Anguo understands me!"
Huh? This isn't what they thought. All that time spent thinking about this is useless.
The maids looked at each other in bewilderment.
Soon, Emperor Jinde's oral order was delivered to Haitangju, summoning Jiang Qingyao to the palace for an audience.
