After He San Niang and Meng Meng get married, she will stay in Yunzhou with Meng Meng.
Yunzhou is the territory of the Yi family army. General Yi had personally visited Kuncheng before and witnessed the extraordinary skills of the Peng family's female soldiers. Therefore, he also gave He Sanniang the authority to form a Yi family female army, and the selection of personnel would begin after the first month of next year.
He San Niang had been hanging out with Madam Peng and the others since she was a child, so she was very familiar with this and was confident that she could complete the mission.
After their marriage, the couple returned to their parents' home on the third day after the wedding, and on the fourth day, they went directly back to the capital with the main entourage.
Meng Meng also got a month's vacation, which was just in time to go to the capital to attend Gu Nian's wedding.
Gu Nian really liked the character Meng Meng when she read the novel. Not long after she transmigrated, she met Meng Meng, and the two got along quite well.
It's not far from Yunzhou to the capital; it only takes a few days.
When they arrived in the capital, it was the evening of the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Upon receiving the news, the Gu family prepared several tables of dishes to entertain everyone.
After a few rounds of drinks, everyone got up to say goodbye.
Gu Xin, preoccupied, pulled Lu Zheng aside.
Lu Zheng had drunk quite a bit. He wasn't drunk, but he smelled strongly of alcohol. He leaned against a pillar in the veranda, pulled Gu Xin's cloak up, and then held Gu Xin's hands: "Silly girl, I'm fine. I'm a grown man, no one will do anything to me!"
Gu Xin looked at Lu Zheng and pursed her lips, saying, "I was worried that you wouldn't be used to being away from home for more than ten years."
Lu Zheng rubbed Gu Xin's hands and breathed on them to warm them: "The Duke's Mansion isn't far from the Gu Mansion. If I don't feel comfortable there, I'll come and ask my second uncle to take me in, and then tomorrow I'll have my grandmother take me back!"
"Hehehe..." Gu Xin couldn't help but laugh, "That's right, find Grandma, let Grandma take us to cause trouble for your stepmother!"
The two had already heard that after Grandma Gu returned to the capital, she immediately had Lin Shi imprisoned in the Jingzhao Prefecture jail for several days.
Lu Zheng patted Gu Xin's head: "Sweetie, it's cold outside, and it's snowing! Come inside!"
Gu Xin nodded, then withdrew her hand and stretched out both her arms: "Brother Yuanyuan, come give me a hug! My parents and sister all say I'm a lucky little baby, and they want me to pass on my luck to you!"
Lu Zheng hugged Gu Xin tightly, then took a deep breath: "My lucky little darling, I inhaled your lucky energy, and I feel incredibly energetic. No demon or monster can stand against me now!"
Gu Xin released him with satisfaction, then escorted Lu Zheng to the door, watching him reluctantly as he got into the carriage.
After getting into the carriage, Lu Zheng let out a long sigh of relief.
Eleven years have passed. He has been away from the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion for a full eleven years. If you include the time in his previous life, several decades have passed.
He had already forgotten what his courtyard in the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion looked like, and whether the flowers, plants, and trees in the courtyard had long since withered.
Hehe, what are you thinking? It's winter now, the season of heavy snow. Even if something hasn't withered, it will be covered by the falling snowflakes.
The Duke of Zhenguo's mansion is indeed not far from the Gu family mansion; both are in the most prestigious circles of the capital, separated only by a street.
The carriage arrived quickly. After the driver stopped the carriage and saw that Lu Zheng had not come out, he called out, "Young Master, we have arrived."
Lu Zheng hummed in agreement, and after a while, lifted the carriage curtain.
His gaze was icy, no less so than the snow-covered landscape. He stood in the snow, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar plaque that read "Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion." Suddenly, the mansion gate opened, and Lu Zheng frowned.
