Chapter 272 Returning to China
Since then, Wu Mian hid far away when she saw the dessert.
But I can hide for a while, but I can't hide for a lifetime.
Because, in her wedding room, there are all kinds of pastries, such as rose crisps, pearl cakes, etc., which look very sweet, let alone taste.
But if she doesn't eat this, what will she eat?
Thinking of this, she walked to the pastry step by step. She closed her eyes, held a piece of pastry in her hand, and ate it in small bites.
Unexpectedly, before she finished eating, she suddenly opened her eyes, "Not mentioning, this pastry is so delicious, light and not greasy, so fragrant!"
Wu Mian said, silently eating pastries.
This time, I ate Li Sheng and came back.
Li Sheng and Jiang Huan are not good at drinking. But at this moment it is the wedding ceremony, so he, the groom, must have to drink. So, he came back with a drunken affair.
Seeing his husband come back, Wu Mian put down the pastry in his hand awkwardly, "Honeyone? You're back."
"I'm back." Li Sheng stumbled onto the stool and poured himself a cup of tea. "The princess has been waiting here for so long. I think she must be hungry. Why don't I let the kitchen make something to fill my stomach?"
"Okay!" Wu Mian agreed without hesitation.
Although there are a lot of pastries in the house, eating too much will make you feel tired. It is better to have a meal.
When Li Sheng saw Wu Mian respond, he didn't say much, "Come."
As the words fell, the servant walked in through the door, "What are the instructions of sir?"
"Let the kitchen make a bowl of spring noodles."
"No." After the servant said that, he retreated. After a while, he walked over with Yang Chun's face.
"Eat." Li Sheng nodded and pushed the noodles towards Wu Mian.
"Thank you." Wu Mian was not polite and started to eat in big mouthfuls. Only after she finished eating would the two of them do the job.
One night of spring night.
The Wind Palace.
Wu Mian's marriage was resolved, and Duan Yu had no reason to stay in Yue Kingdom. After saying goodbye to Ling Chen in Yingfeng Hall, he embarked on the road to return home.
Ling Chen and Jiang Huan stood side by side on the city wall. They looked at the carriage below and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, "The matter has finally been resolved."
"Is it really solved?" Jiang Huan murmured.
He knew Wu Zhen’s ambitions better than anyone else, and he knew clearly that Wu Zhen would never give up the fat piece of Yue Kingdom. Wu Mian was just an episode, and Wu Zhen would never let him go.
"No matter whether the matter is resolved or not, our country in Vietnam should be calm for a while."
"I hope." Jiang Huan said.
After three days and three nights of sleepless journey, the carriage finally returned to Wu.
The Palace of the King of Wu.
When Wu Zhen heard Duan Yu's report, he was so angry that he hit the cup on the table. Duan Yu did not dodge and was forced to get this blow.
"The king forgives sins."
"Forgive your sins, what's the use of forgiveing your sins?" Wu Zhen stood up from the stool, "I forgive your sins. Can Qingmian marry Jiang Huan again?"
"No." Duan Yu said.
"Okay." Wu Zhen waved his hand in disgust, "And what else happened?"
"The King of Yue's love for Jiang Huan has reached a point."
"Oh?" Wu Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly, "How can I see it?"
"When my subordinates talked about marriage with King Yue in the court of Yue State, they said that a man from our country could get married at 16. At that time, a minister said that Lord Jiang was already 16 and could get married."
"What did the King of Yue say?"
"The King of Yue said that Jiang Da’s talent is fourteen. He is too young to marry."
"Too small?" Wu Zhen laughed as if he heard something particularly funny. "Although there are fewer men who get married in Wu's 14th country than men who get married in the 16th country, there are still some. Why did he become too small when he gets married in the 19th country?"
"This is where King Yue favors Jiang Huan." Duan Yumin raised his lips and said again, "A few days after being in Yue State, I found that several officials in the court were too powerful and could even support the head of the palace. I am strong and weak, and the power in the hands of King Yue can be imagined. During the banquet, I found that Ling Chen and Jiang Huan were very close. I bribed the servants who served the King Yue and got a very important news there."
"What news, say it quickly."
"Jiang Huan was originally Ling Chen's teacher and a disciple of Wuchang, the Minister of Revenue. Ling Chen trusted him well and brought him to the position of the Master's Dichou."
"If Gu is right, Ling Chen wants to use Jiang Huan to restrain those people."
"But Jiang Huan is so young, how could he be... how could he fight against those high-ranking officials?"
"I am young and have a lot of thoughts." Wu Zhen said, "I am not afraid of this. I underestimated Jiang Huan's importance in Ling Chen's heart, and now I have lost my wife and soldiers. I just hope that if he can quickly send news, it can prove that Jiang Huan is Lu Bai. At that time, even if Ling Chen wants to protect him, he will not be able to protect him. After all..." Wu Zhen paused, "As long as Jiang Huan's true identity is exposed, he will become the pawn of those who seize the throne under the banner of Qi. At that time, he will only cause trouble for Ling Chen. With their personal relationship, he will definitely not stay there. The only place to go is Wu." Wu Zhen said, and a smile that was determined to win appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Just as he was talking to Duan Yu, a voice sounded. Wu Zhen raised his eyes slightly and saw a eunuch walking in, "Your Majesty, if his son is back."
Duan Yu frowned slightly when he saw this, "Since the king has something to do, I will take it back first."
"Don't have it first." Wu Zhen grabbed Duan Yu's wrist, "This matter has something to do with Jiang Huan, so you can stay here and listen to him."
Seeing that Wu Zhen insisted on doing this, Duan Yu had to bite the bullet and respond.
"Please come in."
"yes."
Ruoqi came from outside the door, and he bowed to the two of them, "Ruoqi has seen the king and Lord Duan."
"Get up."
"Thank you, the king." After saying that, he stood up.
"Have you found any news during the past few days in Liangzhou?"
"I found it." Ruoqi said, "Because I didn't know where Jiang Huan lives, I asked many people along the way, but those people said what Jiang Huan made to Liangzhou. Few people knew where Jiang Huan lives and what happened before. My subordinates searched for many people and finally found out about what Jiang Huan had done before."
"Say." Wu Zhen said.
"Jiang Huan was born in a scholarly family in a remote town in Liangzhou. He has been well-read in poetry and books since he was a child, so he is quite talented. But he is such a talented person, but his parents died when he was seven years old."
"Is the matter true?" Wu Zhen said.
"In order to verify the authenticity of the facts, my subordinates went to the former residence of Lord Jiang, who was mentioned by the common people, and found that there was indeed a house burned by fire. Moreover, my subordinates found this in the ruins." Ruoqi said, and took out a bracelet with the word "Huan" from his arms.
