Chapter 890 No trace
Perhaps it was because of Lu Xingwan's words that he continued to drive the carriage forward, paying attention to the situation ahead, and holding the reins in his hands tighter and tighter.
I can't let the princess down.
At this time, Nuomituan had gradually come back to her senses. She opened her eyes and looked at Lu Xingwan in front of her with red eyes, her gaze still on the scroll in her hand.
"Where is she now? Have you found her?"
To be honest, when Lu Xingwan took out the scroll, she had already determined that Wanwan might have found this person.
She looked at Lu Xingwan with anticipation, as if as long as Lu Xingwan opened his mouth, she would immediately turn around and leave the carriage and go straight there.
Lu Xingwan looked at Nuomituan's anxious expression, a hint of loss flashed across her eyes, and she couldn't help but look at Sister Qionghua beside her.
Then he sighed softly, his eyes returned to Nuomituan again, he shook his head at her, and said with a feeling of reluctance: "I have never seen this person."
"This person had previously visited the palace of the Great Chu as a tribal leader. At that time, my grandmother, now the Queen Mother, received her and left this portrait with her."
"Over the years, the Empress Dowager has missed her and has sent people to look for her many times, but there is no trace of her."
Lu Xingwan's words were like a sharp blade that pierced straight into Nuomituan's heart.
The light in her eyes dimmed instantly, as if she was suddenly hit by a strong force, and her body went limp.
The previous excitement disappeared without a trace in an instant, and she lowered her head so that no one could see the emotion in her eyes.
But now, the sense of loss that emanates from her whole body is very obvious.
Lu Xingwan turned his head once again and looked at Sister Qionghua. Both of them were helpless, but they also knew that since things had come to this, this was the status quo that Nuomituan had to accept.
"Nuomituan, this person is not that easy to find, so don't have too high hopes." Qiong Hua finally couldn't help but spoke to persuade her.
Qilin, who was standing by, had been observing all this secretly. He saw the lost mood in Nuomituan.
Although he and Nuomituan had their share of quarrels, they also had a fighting friendship. A surge of sympathy for her surged in his heart, and he stood up from Wanwan's side without hesitation and jumped to Nuomituan's side.
He gently lay down beside Nuomituan, trying to give him some comfort with the breath he exuded.
He could naturally understand Nuomituan's feelings. When Wanwan left the ancient secret realm, he also thought that Wanwan would never come back.
So, at this moment, he could empathize with Nuomituan.
He lay there quietly with his eyes closed, as if he was in a deep sleep.
Nuomituan couldn't help it either, so he reached out and stroked him twice, and at this moment of loss, he felt a hint of warmth.
Lu Xingwan put the scroll away and wanted to give it to Nuomituan, but then he thought she might have no place to store it, so he simply stuffed it back into his treasure bag.
"I will keep this portrait for now."
Then she said very seriously: "I have one more important thing to say."
Just as she finished speaking, the eunuch's respectful voice came from outside: "Princess, we have arrived at the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion."
The carriage had also stopped steadily.
After hearing this, Lu Xingwan raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't expect that the imperial palace was quite close to Marquis Dingguo's Mansion. She thought that it would take a lot of time!
Then she looked at Sister Qionghua beside her and sighed slightly: "Sister Qionghua, if that's the case, let's talk about it another day!"
After saying this, she walked forward and pulled Nuomituan's hand, preparing to go out. At this time, Nuomituan looked up in a daze. Seeing Wanwan's actions, she also guessed that they should have reached their destination.
Seeing Wanwan pulling her hand but she didn't move, Qionghua stepped forward and held her again.
At this time, Nuomituan had already jumped out of her previous depressed mood. Although she did not look very happy, she no longer had the lost look as if her soul had been taken away.
When she looked up at Miss Qiong Hua, she saw a hint of calmness in her eyes, as if she had accepted the reality.
She sighed slightly and didn't say much.
There are too many regrets in this world. If one thing makes her immersed in pain like this, who knows how much she will have to endure in the future!
Even a spirit beast has to learn to grow up.
All she and Wanwan could do was to stay by her side.
Before opening the car curtain, Wanwan stopped and turned back, looking at Nuomituan with anticipation.
"Nuomituan, come and take a look at my grandmother's house. I think you will like it too."
Although the Dingguo Marquis Mansion is not as luxurious as the imperial palace, it is rich because of my aunt's business!
Many rare objects that have never appeared in the imperial palace can be found in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.
When saying this, Wanwan's tone was full of pride.
At this time, outside the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, the servant at the gate saw the imperial carriage parked steadily in front of his house. He was startled and hurried to the inner courtyard.
All the men in the house were not at home today, so she had to go and tell the old lady.
Although all household affairs are now in the hands of the eldest lady, she still wants to consult the old lady first on many matters.
Moreover, since the Royal Concubine left the capital for Yong'an County, no one has come to the palace for a long time.
The person coming now must be very important.
After hearing the news, Xiao quickly told the maid beside her to prepare food for the guests, while she herself, along with several daughters-in-law, hurried to the front yard to greet them.
They didn't know who the person in the carriage was, and they couldn't guess for a moment, but since he was someone from the palace, they could not neglect him.
Now, Song Qingqi and his son Song Zhuo are both helping out in the surrounding areas of Yong'an County.
And Song Qingyan directly became the person in charge of Yong'an County. Their Song family now has a very high status and power.
That’s why the old marquis reminded us to be careful and cautious in everything.
Early this morning, the old marquis went out in a hurry, and she didn't know what he was busy with.
But now that the old marquis is not here, she should take good care of the newcomers.
"My mother-in-law said, could it be that Concubine Lan Gui is here?"
"Or has the Second Prince returned from the border?"
The one who spoke was the third son's wife, Zhao. Zhao had always been a lively person, and even though several people were walking hurriedly towards the front yard, she couldn't control her thoughts.
