Chapter 139 Farewell
Zhu Huaizhen was a little excited when he left Jinling, the capital of Southern Yan.
She had no choice but to stay in Liuting Tower of Duke Dingguo's Mansion all day to listen to operas.
She is a princess of a fallen country, and she possesses the treasure of the Great Zhou. Her every move attracts attention, so it is better for her to keep quiet.
However, Zhu Huaizhen did not expect that some people were so slow and hesitant in saying goodbye.
This person is Chen Mingan.
The old lady was reluctant to let Chen Ming'an go. She held Chen Ming'an's hand and rambled on with great emotion: "Ming'an, now that you're gone, I don't know if it will be another five years. By then, I won't be able to communicate via letters. I can only miss you silently, counting the days on my fingers. These days are too sad..."
"Yes, in the past, Yan'er was not married, and there was a lively person to accompany mother. Now, I am the only one left, old and ugly, and I don't know if I can comfort mother." Mrs. Chen sighed helplessly.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen finally understood.
This was not a farewell, but a complaint, a complaint that Chen Ming'an could not tolerate Gao Yan'er.
Haha, how much do this mother and daughter covet the Duke Dingguo Mansion? That’s why they are always so shameless.
"Grandma, aunt, if you miss my cousin, you can ask her to come and stay with you anytime. It's no problem." Zhao Lian'er smiled tenderly.
"Grandma, aunt, I believe you can take care of yourselves." Chen Ming'an followed Zhao Lian'er's words and said lightly.
After hearing this, the old lady and Mrs. Chen were a little disappointed, but there was nothing they could do.
As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.
Even if Gao Yan'er came back, she would still be a guest.
"Old Madam, Madam Chen, and Madam Gao, if they want to listen to opera, they can stay in Liuting Tower at any time." Zhu Huaizhen smiled like a flower, his eyes moving.
However, such polite words, when heard by the old lady and Mrs. Chen, were just a mockery. The old lady and Mrs. Chen realized that Gao Yan'er had listened to Zhu Huaizhen's nonsense and had given up her job as the concubine of the prince of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion and insisted on being a poor man's wife, causing the old lady and Mrs. Chen to attend the family banquet outside and make a fool of themselves.
Therefore, just as Mrs. Chen was about to start scolding, Duke Dingguo came forward.
He stared at Chen Mingan for about a cup of tea.
Then, he whispered, "Ming'an, have a safe journey, and come back early."
"Okay, can't you take some practical action instead of just talking nonsense." Princess Pingyang sneered.
Tsk tsk, Princess Pingyang is scolding both the Old Lady and Madam Chen.
However, Duke Dingguo didn't understand the indirect criticism and actually took out a bundle.
The bag was filled with dry food, which Duke Dingguo often used during his marches.
Foods such as sesame seed cakes, ham, pickles, pot cakes, steamed bread, steamed corn bread, pancakes, steamed buns, fried rice, and air-dried beef have a long shelf life and taste good, which can be said to be well-intentioned.
Immediately afterwards, Princess Pingyang squeezed out Duke Dingguo and also stuffed a bundle into Chen Ming'an's hands.
"Ming'an, don't take them apart. They are all underwear. They are made of fine gauze, which is relatively transparent. You won't be used to wearing other fabrics." Princess Pingyang sighed softly.
If Princess Zhao Lian'er of Xincheng was a capable person, she wouldn't need to prepare these things at all.
To be honest, Princess Pingyang couldn't see any good in Zhao Lian'er, but Chen Ming'an treated her as a treasure.
Then, when everyone was getting ready to set off, Emperor Xuan of Yan unexpectedly arrived in disguise for a private visit.
"Concubine Chen, I have been thinking about you since the morning court session." Emperor Xuan of Yan hugged Concubine Bai Chen.
Upon seeing this, Concubine Bai Chen was so moved that her eyes were blurred with tears.
Oh shit, does Emperor Xuan of Yan really love Concubine Bai Chen?
Zhu Huaizhen held his rosy cheeks, full of doubts.
But what kind of true love could destroy her country?
