Chapter 322: A Good Affair

Lady Marquis Jingnan’s face is as usual: “She’s a young lady from a side room, she’s not qualified to come and meet the County Lord Jade Driver.”

Huo Mingyu says in a warm voice: “Madam is overly concerned. The two families are friends, so naturally they shouldn’t be so formal.”

Marquis Jingnan’s wife is slightly silent, so she slightly sidesteps her head and gives a wink to the maid under the door.

From then on, living in the palace, Huo Mingyu doesn’t know much about the world of people and things, and at that time, like this kind of thing, it’s over and done with, but after following Huo Xiu in the barracks for more than a year, she became the mistress of the Huo family, and there are a lot of things that need to be handled on her own, so of course she won’t be clueless any more. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor treat them well is not false, but they are more appreciative of people who know what is right and what is wrong, politely refused the Empress Dowager’s goodwill to go to the palace to live is so, and now do not take the County Lord’s frame is also so.

Huo Xiu is right, now they are treated with kindness, most of them are still the parents of the moment to save the good karma, if they take big, it’s not right.

Mrs. Marquis Jingnan invited to tea, Huo Mingyu also held tea, waiting for Yu Qingtong to arrive.

After a while, only to hear the cups ringing, Yu Qingyi first put down the cup, look over: “I also often heard my father talk about Your Highness’s bravery in the past, the county princess in the palace grew up, but even to go to the border camps stayed for more than a year, let a person admire. I don’t know if you are accustomed to the customs there?”

Huo Xiu is going to guard the border for the court, while Huo Mingyu is going to assist him in his internal affairs, used to it or not, where is it so important? Even if he is not used to it, Huo Mingyu is unlikely to complain in front of his colleagues’ families. Yu Qingyi so asked out, Huo Mingyu will be more aware of the meaning of a few points of temptation, but also more will not talk nonsense: “Great Liang sage world, where are similar. Guangxi has a pleasant climate, four seasons like spring, very comfortable. The people there are also very kind. For the rest of the year, I’ve lived in the capital not much differently.”

Yu Qingyi slightly jawed and glanced at Marquis Jingnan’s wife.

Mrs. Marquis Jingnan was unperturbed, and Yu Qingyi said, “Yi’er go to the kitchen courtyard to see, if the soup is ready, you can come up first.” Watching her daughter walk away, she still smiles warmly and looks towards Huo Mingyu: “Such a big mansion, all day long there are generals coming and going, this is busy, but it’s hard on the county princess.”

“It’s also okay, the generals are all very casual, they’re all like my elders and older brothers.”

“Also. Your elder brother is young and old, his brilliance is not inferior to the old Marquis and Her Highness the Princess, so naturally he has a way of ruling the army.”

“Even though my brother has a few efforts, it’s still the grand grace of the Holy Spirit that makes the generals willing to serve the country from the bottom of their hearts.”

Since ancient times, the generals who are in charge of the army are most afraid of being told that they will gather people’s hearts, even though the Empress Dowager really has nothing to say about them, and the Emperor is not even blamed for being injured by Huo Xiu, the heart of closeness and trust is revealed, Huo Mingyu still does not dare to be careless. She digresses, “I remember visiting your mansion when I was still in my teens, and now that I look at it, all these flowers and trees have grown taller.”

Mrs. Marquis Jingnan followed her line of sight and looked back with a smile, “That’s right. Time flies like an arrow, a few years ago, your brother was a young man, but now he seems to be a young general.” Saying this, she forks a piece of melon and passes it over, “Only that I often hear the Empress Dowager say that he has not yet gotten married, so the Empress Dowager is very concerned.”

Huo Mingyu took the melon, smiled bitterly, “No, the border military affairs are heavy, he also has no time to care about self memory.”

Mrs. Marquis Jingnan said, “This time back, the Empress Dowager wants to have to make arrangements?”

“I don’t know about this, I’m young and small, and I don’t dare to overstep my bounds and inquire.” Here Huo Mingyu smiles, “Madam has the most face in front of the Empress Dowager, if you hear of any decree from the Empress Dowager, please do not hesitate to pass it on to me.”

Marquis Jingnan’s wife loses her smile, “The decency in front of the empress dowager, if the county princess doesn’t have it, how can I have it?”

After saying this, she looks deeply at Huo Mingyu for a few moments before lowering her head to sip her tea.

At this time, a maid outside the door reports, “Third girl is here.”

Huo Mingyu raised her head and looked at the silhouette outside just about to come in, but her own maid, Job’s, hurried into the room first.

Mrs. Marquis Jingnan is also surprised, only to see Job’s eyes on Huo Mingyu’s side, bending down and saying something in her ear, Huo Mingyu’s face emerges in surprise, and immediately glances towards Job’s eyes: “Where are they?”

“Waiting outside.”

Marquis Jingnan’s wife says with concern: “But is there something wrong?”

Huo Mingyu smiles, “Nothing. It’s just that my two maids have been ordered to run errands and have returned. –Or please ask Third Miss to come in and catch up.”

……

Zhao Su carries Big Tangerine back to the mansion, and it is the night that Chen Han is invited to the mansion to see if she can heal. In fact, Chen Han can heal the eunuch is even more problematic, the reason why she carried the cat out of the palace, for one thing, is to know that the cat’s vigilance is extremely high, was injured will not easily trust people, although the Empress Dowager Lu is the cat owner, the cat is usually free-range, at this time it is her people to take care of, may not be someone to catch it. Good rare big orange actually trust her, she naturally want to bring it around to take care of a while.

Secondly, she is still undeterred, want to find the person who did it. She was much more free than the emperor, if the person who did it was a guard, then she might still be able to find out something with the brothers she had made in the past.

Of course, the premise of doing so was that the people she found must be absolutely reliable.

After Chen Han said that she could try bandaging the cat first, she sent Hua Qianrong to inquire about the guards who were on duty on the day of the incident, as well as the guards who were confirmed to be out of the palace at daybreak.

Just as she finishes feeding Big Tangerine the special sickly meal at noon and prepares to go to the Yamen to answer another call, and in the meantime informs Cheng Zhuyun that he can come to the palace tomorrow as a companion, the Huo siblings return home from the Marquis Jingnan’s palace after the banquet.

“Did brother discuss the case with Marquis Jingnan? How is it now?”

Huo Mingyu sits down at the table in Huo Xiu’s house and asks the first question of concern.

Huo Xiu changed his robe through the curtain and came out, holding a bamboo-colored silk handkerchief while walking into his arms: “He talked about the Luo family, and he doesn’t have much of a clue, but just now he’s already sent someone to check on Luo Zeng. Hopefully, we can find some clues. Tomorrow morning I’ll go to the Da Lisi, meet with them and provide some clues.”

Huo Mingyu says, “Hopefully, Marquis Jingnan is sincere in assisting us.”

Huo Xiu has just uncovered the lid of the tea cup, and when he hears this, he glances at her, “What?”

Huo Mingyu sinks her breath, and then says what Mrs. Marquis Jingnan said earlier. “I said why is the Yu family so solemn and enthusiastic, together they want to tie the knot.”

Huo Xiu toned for a moment, then said, “It won’t be.”

Huo Mingyu says, “How do you know it won’t?”

“Because Marquis Jingnan and I have real power in each other’s hands. If his Yu family doesn’t need to rely on a marriage to strengthen their strength, they won’t need to rush to the target. –Even if Marquis Jingnan’s wife had this idea, it would be wishful thinking on her part.”

“Is that so.” Huo Mingyu is half-convinced.
