The Empress Dowager looked at Wang Zan, who was so skinny and listless, and was heartbroken. Before Wang Zan could kneel down and give her a big gift, she grabbed Wang Zan, and said with a slightly red eye: "You child, just followed Alu out of the door, why did you become like this? Did the people around you not take good care of you..."

"No, no." Wang Zan said hurriedly. He still remembers that when he was five years old, he went to the palace to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager. As a result, he fell in the yard. All the people serving around were beaten by the Empress Dowager. "I left anxiously this time, and I didn't take any of the servants around me."

"It won't be like this in the future!" After the Empress Dowager was angry, she hurriedly ordered Wang Zan to make a cup of ginseng tea, and pulled Wang Zan to sit on the big kang by the window and talked, "Did you see Baoning? Has she been wronged? That Li Qian... What's going on now? Are you back alone or with Alu? Where is Baoning now?"

The old man said one after another, his face full of anxiety.

Wang Zan suddenly felt a little aggrieved as he looked at it.

Why did Baoning marry that Li Qian?

Can't kill him?

He didn't believe it at all if he said he liked Li Qian.

Baoning stayed in the house all day and didn't like to walk around. Li Qian entered Beijing after the Double Ninth Festival last year. Later, the matter of Empress Dowager Cao was involved and transferred to Wanshou Mountain. The two had no interaction at all. It must be that Empress Dowager Cao knew that Li Qian had kidnapped Baoning, so she insisted that Baoning voluntarily followed Li Qian to Shanxi. Baoning had always been soft-hearted, and in order to save Li Qian's life, he had to accept this marriage... The Empress Dowager must have been deceived by Cao Xuan.

He couldn't help but say, "The Empress Dowager, why did you issue such an imperial edict to Baoning? Isn't it just that you sent us to pick her up back to Beijing? Why did you have to marry Li Qian?"

The Empress Dowager was stunned and immediately understood that Jiang Xian did not let Wang Zan know that there was another imperial edict that was given to Li Qian to death.

But before she could speak, Wang Zan said, "Bao Ning was afraid that Zhao Xiao would be unable to stand up to his face as soon as the imperial edict was issued, so he quietly called me to go with Zhao Xiao and let me accompany Zhao Xiao to Beijing first, and read the imperial edict when we left. Now Brother Alu was accompanying Bao Ning on the way back to the capital, Zhao Xiao and I were back first." He thought of Zhao Xiao's depression, grief and frustration along the way, and he empathized with him, "How can you believe the words of Empress Dowager Cao? She is just afraid that the world will not be in chaos... If Bao Ning does not accept the imperial edict, then the Li family will only have the word "death..."

The Empress Dowager listened to it and tasted something different.

After Wang Zan left, she remained silent for a long time and asked Meng Fangling: "Did I do something wrong?"

Meng Fangling is unsolvable.

The Empress Dowager said, "I still remember that when Bao Ning was in poor health, Doctor Tian often asked her to fast. She was obviously hungry and stared at the apples that were scented in the house and could not move, but she never asked us for food." She said, unable to help crying, "I raised her in the palace, but I didn't raise her well... She liked that Li Qian, and I wanted her to marry Zhao Xiao, but she still prepared to marry him without saying a word... Over the years, has this child been by my side for a few days?"

"Don't say that!" Meng Fangling felt sad as she heard this, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it to the Empress Dowager to wipe her tears. "The princess has been obedient since she was a child, and she likes anyone who sees it... If the princess is here, she will definitely be sad to see you so sad!"

The Empress Dowager nodded, wiped the corners of her eyes with a veil, and choked and said, "She even hid Azan, which shows that she really liked the one named Li Qian. Unfortunately, when Li Qian came to the palace to pay my respects that day, I didn't take a good look at him, but fortunately I didn't marry him to Zhangzhu, otherwise Bao Ning would be so sad..." Speaking of this, she remembered Bai Su who came to the palace to accompany her, and said, "You go and call Zhangzhu over, I have to ask her carefully for some words."

Meng Fangling left in response.

The Empress Dowager burst into tears again.

Compared with the sadness of Cining Palace, Jiang Xian’s inn can be described as bustling and noisy.

Jiang Lu ordered the postmaster at the postmaster to invite the best local chefs to come and hold a banquet at the postmaster to entertain Qi Sheng.

Although he was a guerrilla general in Datong, he had no airs when he was just a guerrilla general, and he looked gentle and polite but generous. No one in the Datong General Office, from the person in charge of copywriting to the head of the stove, disliked him, let alone these followers and confidants who followed Qi Sheng.

Everyone was like in the General's Mansion, and one of them served a bowl of wine. Before the dishes were served, they had already started to make fuss.

Jiang Xian couldn't help but feel a little worried when he heard the movement outside, and said to Mrs. Qi: "Is it okay to start drinking early this morning?"

"That's how they are." Mrs. Qi smiled without a doubt, "However, with the master present, they dare not drink the wine from the young master. The young master is not the one who is not qualified. Don't worry, princess." Then she greeted her for a snack.

Jiang Xian still couldn't help but run to watch. Seeing that Jiang Lu was good at everything, he was more fed by others and was less fed by himself, so he went back to the house and sat down again.

One of the sisters of Qi said, "The young master is amazing! I have never seen anyone smarter than him!" As he spoke, his eyes were filled with bright light.

Jiang Xian thought of Deng Chenglu's sister...

She couldn't help but secretly cursing Jiang Lu and Li Qian in her heart.

There will be something wrong wherever you go.

How did Li Qian reject Qi Sheng in his previous life? Oh, how dare he get married without establishing a career!

If he has no great achievements in this life, why would he dare to deceive her and come to Shanxi with him?

Jiang Xian couldn't help but smile as he thought about it.

Then we will see what he will use to support her!

Another sister of Qi asked her with a smile: "Princess, is the little princess engaged? I wonder what kind of marriage the princess wants to find him?"

The words were very bold, but she stared at her big round eyes, her eyes clear and clear, like a curious child, and she didn't feel disgusted. However, Mrs. Qi's old face turned red, she shouted "Qi Shuang" and said, "What do you care about these things for your family? Why don't you sit down for me and drink your tea!"

It turns out that this one is Qi Shuang, and the other is Qi Shuang.

Jiang Xian likes the straightforwardness of the two sisters and asks whatever they have, instead of treating others as fools and making trouble behind the scenes.

She smiled and said to Mrs. Qi, "The two ladies treat me as sisters and say these words to me, so you don't have to be angry." Then she said with a smile: "My elder brother has not been engaged yet. As for the marriage to be arranged, I don't know. However, if you care, when my elder brother gets engaged, I will tell you. Take you to meet my new sister-in-law."

Both sisters were a little disappointed, but they were not worried. Instead, one said: "A person as good as a young master, you should find a lady as beautiful as Jin Yuan." The other said unconvincedly: "The young master is not the kind of person who can't walk when he sees a beautiful lady. If you want to marry, you must also marry someone as capable as Grandma Shao."

Mrs. Qi was so embarrassed that she shouted: "Qi Dan, Qi Shuang, shut up!"

Dear friends, today's update!

ps: The test results may be on the stomach. I thought that even gastric cancer can be cured now, so I felt relieved. But I can only feel wronged in the past few days.
