Lu Ren got off the carriage and said, "I will see the princess off. I wish you a safe journey."
Wen Yu leaned on the car window, waved at him, and blew him a kiss.
In the wind and snow, Lu Ren, dressed in black, gradually disappeared into the dark night.
Liu Chun joked, "Princess, you've been living in the General's Mansion these days. Are you not used to going back to the Princess' Mansion?"
Wen Yu patted her head and said, "This man's nest, that man's nest, none of them is as good as this princess's own golden nest, silver nest, and pearl nest."
Not long after leaving Beiyang Pass, Ning Xuanyan used his lightness skills to quietly get into Wen Yu's carriage.
Wen Yu was not very surprised. Ning Xuanyan was always elusive, and he would often appear right after Lu Ren left.
"Aren't you leaving?"
Since the day Lance was shot, he has disappeared.
Ning Xuanyan crossed his arms and said, "I saw that you and Luo Han were having a hot relationship, so I just didn't want to pay attention to you."
Wen Yu was surprised: "What's so hot about it?"
Ning Xuanyan sat closer and knew everything like the back of his hand.
"Standing up for him, isn't that hot-tempered?"
"After taking aphrodisiacs and sharing a carriage, isn't that hot?"
"Isn't it hot to listen to him tell about his tragic life story?"
"You even brought him back home. Isn't that considered hot-tempered?"
Even he didn't get this treatment.
Wen Yu smiled and looked at Ning Xuanyan's questioning, then blinked: "You know so much? Where were you peeking at?"
"...I wasn't peeking. I was just looking for you and happened to run into you."
"Oh~"
"Who knew you would actually bring him back home?"
Wen Yu raised her chin: "But that's the general's residence, not the princess's residence."
Ning Xuanyan: ...
"Or do you want to enter the General's Mansion as well?"
Ning Xuanyan: ...
"If you want, I can talk to Lu Ren for you..."
"Wen Yu!"
"Why are you yelling so loudly?"
Ning Xuanyan gritted his teeth and hugged Wen Yu in his arms: "Don't open your mouth, it's really irritating."
Wen Yu hugged his neck: "That's not what you said when you kissed me. You clearly said it, Wen Yu, open your mouth."
Ning Xuanyan: ...
This time, the route from Beiyangguan back to Beijing is different from usual. We will first head west to Qingyang County.
Since the restoration of order, Qingyang County has been thriving and all the banditry in the surrounding areas has been eliminated.
There will never be another incident where the county government’s treasury is robbed and money is scattered on the street.
All the reward notices posted at the city gates were removed and replaced by stories of good people and good deeds.
"Princess, Qingyang County has changed a lot."
Wen Yu only took a glance and then looked away.
Only Ning Xuanyan and Liu Chun accompanied her into the city this time, and the convoy was waiting ten miles away.
Yan An had said before that the former Dianshi, now the county magistrate, had arranged a new residence for his family. Although it was not large, it was cozy and he took good care of them.
Ning Xuanyan was walking in the city, accompanying Wen Yu, who was wearing a veiled hat, and couldn't help but think of the time in Qingyang County.
That was the stage when his relationship with Wen Yu was progressing rapidly. After all, the first time he and Wen Yu had a negative distance happened in Qingyang.
With just a simple inquiry, Xiao knew where Yan An's family was. He was a well-known figure in Qingyang County.
Wen Yu stood in front of the door and knocked on it.
"Come here, who is it?"
The door was opened, and Aunt Li's smiling face appeared behind the door.
She looked at the three people in front of her and was so shocked that she didn't react for a long time.
Wen Yu lifted the veil and spread it on the veil, "Auntie Li, do you still remember me?"
"I remember, I remember! Of course I remember! How could I not remember?"
Aunt Li immediately welcomed the person in: "Your Excellency is here, please come in! Oh, this courtyard is a bit messy, and Ping An is also in a mess. Princess, you are coming, but he didn't even tell me in advance, so I can prepare..."
"This is really outrageous. Where is that kid? We really need to teach him a lesson."
As she spoke, she glanced at Ning Xuanyan and quickly retracted her gaze.
He was the man who came to see the princess last time and gave her family a gold ingot.
What kind of nobles are around the princess? Ping An, that boy, looks so unprepossessing, and he still wants to pursue the princess...
"Princess, please take a seat. You must be hungry on the way. The kitchen is steaming buns. I'll bring them to you."
"Aunt Li."
Wen Yu gently pulled her back and said, "Stop working."
She whispered, "I came here this time to send Yan An home."
Aunt Li:......
"Why does he need the princess to send him home? He has legs and feet, he can go home by himself... Let me bring the buns first, that kid can eat ten buns in one breath!"
From beginning to end, Aunt Li never went to see Liuchun.
What Liuchun was holding in his hands were Yan An's ashes.
"Princess, how can I say this? I really can't bear to tell Aunt Li..."
"The buns are here!"
Aunt Li brought a plate of white steamed buns and placed them on the table. After careful counting, there were fifteen of them.
Liu Chun said: "Auntie Li, we can't eat so much, don't waste it."
"Yes."
Aunt Li gave one to Ning Xuanyan and Liuchun each, gave two to Wen Yu, and ate the other one herself.
There were exactly ten left on the plate.
She looked at the urn in Liuchun's hand and ate while silently crying: "Ping An likes to eat the steamed buns I make the most. He can eat ten in one go. These ten... let's save them for him to eat when he comes back."
Liuchun didn't understand anything, so she placed the urn on the table and stood behind Wen Yu.
"Princess, thank you for sending him back in person." Aunt Li swallowed the last bite of steamed bun, "I'm sure he is happy."
