As soon as he entered the city, Changdong made a report outside the car. "Master, Master Lu and General Feng are here to take you into the palace."

Meng Yuan frowned when he heard Feng Ze was there, showing displeased expression, and responded lightly. "Ok."

He snorted inwardly. Hmph, obviously he came to greet this king, but he actually came to see Ling'er. Feng Ze, this person was really haunted.

Seeing that he didn't move for a while, Zhao Ling pushed him helplessly, "A-Yuan, get out of the carriage."

Meng Yuan took her hand and looked at her reluctantly.

Zhao Ling rolled her eyes at him angrily, and had to lift the curtain by herself, jumped out of the carriage, then took the wheelchair prepared by Changdong, and helped Meng Yuan, who was displeased and deliberately slow, into the wheelchair.

Looking back, Lu Ziqing and Feng Ze were standing in the middle of the bustling street. Lu Ziqing was wearing a purple official uniform, and Feng Ze was wearing a black Jinwuwei uniform with gold trim. They both looked serious and majestic.

Obviously, the two had just returned from the palace, and when they heard that Meng Yuan and his party had arrived, they came here to greet them.

Seeing Meng Yuan get off the carriage, the two of them greeted him and bowed in salute.

"Xiaguan Lu Ziqing has met Lord Xuan."

"Feng Ze has met lord Xuan."

There was no way the etiquette could be abandoned, not to mention that the two were still wearing court clothes, and they must be cautious in their words and deeds.

Meng Yuan sat in the wheelchair with his back straight, his face was always cold and calm, but he kept holding Zhao Ling's hand, and said a few words indifferently: "No need to be more polite."

Feng Ze lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, hiding the rushing emotions in his eyes. Just now, seeing Zhao Ling getting off Meng Yuan's carriage, his heart was full of soreness. He asked himself, did the two of them come back in the same carriage along the way?

Zhao Ling also greeted Lu Ziqing and Fengze generously. They had been through weal and woe along the way, so they were not too formal.

Here, Zhao Ling felt that the most unaccustomed thing was these red tapes of kneeling down and saluting at every turn.

It was just that when he saw Feng Ze this time, Zhao Ling always felt that his attitude towards her was a lot colder, as if she had lost her previous acquaintance. Could it be that she inadvertently offended him? Zhao Ling thought about it for a long time, but to no avail. She decided not to worry about it anymore, and just find a time to ask him next time.

Because Eunuch Li was eager to invite Meng Yuan into the palace, Zhao Ling didn't talk to them much. After putting Meng Yuan back in the carriage, she told him "be careful with everything", and then said goodbye to everyone and left.

Passing through the bustling streets of Suzaku Street, Zhao Ling's carriage stopped in front of Shen Guogong's mansion.

Standing at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Zhao Ling had a feeling as if she was coming from another world. It had been three months since she went south to Suzhou. She didn't know how the people in the Guogong Manor have been doing these past three months.

To be honest, due to the unpopularity and experience of the original owner in the Duke's Mansion, Zhao Ling didn't have much affection for this nominal home. Relatively speaking, she prefered to be relaxing and casually associating at the Xie's home.

When the servants outside the door saw Zhao Ling getting off the carriage, they shouted excitedly, "Miss is back! Miss is back!" Saluting Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling was stunned. When did these servants become so enthusiastic about her? Could it be that they haven't seen her for so long and missed her?

She didn't bother to pay too much attention to it either, and after nodding her head in response, she walked into the mansion. Mamma Xu and Qing Luo were on the way.

When Mother Xu saw Zhao Ling, she burst into tears. "Miss, you're back, it's good to come back safely, it's good to be back safely."

Xu also noticed that Zhao Ling's face injury had healed, and her appearance became more and more beautiful and charming, and she was even more happy to wipe away tears and smile.

Qingluo was also excited, with tears in her eyes.

Zhao Ling felt warm in her heart. No matter how disgusted she was with this Zhao Jiang's authorities, at least these two people really care about her.

Lu Zhu was a woman who couldn't hide her words, and immediately chatted with Xu and Qingluo about the various encounters in Suzhou.

When Xiao Guo, the fox, heard the movement, she stuck out her fluffy head from Zhao Ling's arms and whimpered a few times.

Mammy Xu and Qingluo were startled when they saw this white thing at first, but after seeing that it was a cute little fox, they immediately fell in love with it, and laughed and teased it.

Zhao Ling watched the scene of these three people getting along well, feeling warm in her heart and a gentle smile on her face.

"Eldest sister has been back for a long time, why didn't she go to see her father and mother, instead of entangling with a bunch of minions here!" A stern female voice came from behind.

Zhao Ling frowned, this was Zhao Ruo's voice. Wasn't she married to Prince Rong's mansion, why was she here?

Looking back, it was indeed Zhao Ruo who was right behind her. Her pretty face was tense, as if her body was full of anger.

There was also a man standing beside her, with a light purple brocade robe, handsome in appearance, slightly feminine, it was Meng Yun, the heir of Prince Rong's mansion.
