Hearing this name, Rong Qing was actually somewhat moved, "He's back from the border?"
The Duke of Fuguo's eyes dimmed slightly, "No, he asked his family to send it to me. He probably learned that you and Mo Yun had divorced."
Rong Qing lowered his eyes, hiding the emotions in his eyes, and asked calmly, "Since it's his, why didn't father just refuse it?"
The Duke of Fuguo sighed softly, "He has been so determined until now, I should let you know, and let you make your own decision."
Rong Qing didn't answer immediately, nor did he refuse the birthday gift. He just lowered his eyes. This reaction made Mo Zhaohua even more confused.
So she asked tentatively, "Who is Song Cheng'an? It seems that Zhao Zhao heard this name for the first time. He is at the border, but is he a military commander?"
She thought Rong Qing would not answer, so she looked at the Duke of Fuguo, but heard Rong Qing answer in a low voice, "An old friend who has been to the western frontier for many years."
Mo Zhaohua suddenly thought of someone, "But the man who loved my mother and went to the battlefield in the west after my mother got married?"
"How did Zhao Zhao know about this?" Rong Qing looked up hurriedly. She was afraid that Mo Zhaohua had heard some bad rumors.
"Amber heard it by accident and told Zhaozhao about it." Mo Zhaohua really didn't know much about the matter.
The Duke of Fuguo couldn't help but sigh again, "Ah... Song Cheng'an is not bad, but it's a pity that he and Qing'er are not destined to be together."
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it." After Rong Qing divorced, he no longer had any expectations for the future of his relationship.
The Duke of Fuguo knew what she was thinking, so he changed the subject, "What about the birthday gift? Are you really going to return it?"
Rong Qing hesitated for a moment, "Forget it, let's go back."
"Okay, we will respect your decision." The Duke of Fuguo did not want to force her, as long as she was happy.
After dealing with the birthday gift, Rong Qing and Mo Zhaohua returned to Luofengju.
After sitting down in the main hall, Rong Qing asked Mo Zhaohua, "Why didn't Zhao Zhao ask about Mr. Song?"
Mo Zhaohua was very interested, but he held back, "I don't want to ask, so as not to affect my mother's mood."
"Zhao Zhao is such a considerate child." Rong Qing smiled with relief. She really didn't want to talk more about this.
Mo Zhaohua said sincerely: "Zhao Zhao only hopes that mother can be happy and healthy. Other people and things are not important."
***
Because they were going to take a medicinal bath in the afternoon, Mo Zhaohua and Chu Xuanchi had dinner at the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion before returning to Prince Yu's Mansion.
At night, Mo Zhaohua gave acupuncture to Chu Xuanchi, with Wuying helping her. She thought carefully before speaking.
"Wuying, please help me find a person. His name is Song Cheng'an. He is originally from Shengjing and is now in the Western Frontier Army."
Fearing that Rong Qing would be embarrassed, she would not ask Rong Qing directly about the past, but that did not mean she could not investigate Song Chengan privately.
Wuying handed her a silver needle that had been heated over candlelight, "Okay, what kind of information does the princess want?"
Mo Zhaohua didn't intend to hide it from him. "It's mainly about what happened between him and my mother before he went to the Western Frontier."
Since he was asked to investigate, he would sooner or later know that Song Chengan had once loved Rong Qing and was even willing to remain a virgin for her.
"I understand. I'll send someone to investigate right away." Since Rong Qing was involved, Wuying didn't ask too many questions. He was always very tactful.
Chu Xuanchi didn't say anything, but listening to their words, he couldn't help but feel curious and guessed that she might want to make some connections for Rong Qing.
After the acupuncture was completed, Wuying went out, Amber brought hot water in time, and then Mo Zhaohua helped Chu Xuanchi soak his feet.
The external wound on his leg had almost healed, and there were not many scabs left. It was all bright red new flesh that had grown after the scabs fell off.
Mo Zhaohua squatted on the ground, lowered his head and concentrated on massaging his legs, using his internal energy to clear his blocked tendons and veins.
Feeling the burning gaze coming from above her head, she raised her head to meet Chu Xuanchi's gaze, "Why are you looking at me like this, my husband?"
Chu Xuanchi pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "Zhao Zhao asks knowingly, but are you trying to tease me again?"
Mo Zhaohua remembered that she had not yet told him about Rong Qing and Song Cheng'an, "My husband is really smart, but I don't know much..."
She had only heard Amber mention it once, and knew very little. The details would depend on what Wuying could find out.
Chu Xuanchi confirmed his previous guess after hearing this, "It seems that Song Chengan still has deep feelings for his mother-in-law."
Mo Zhaohua didn't dare to hold out too much hope. "It's hard to say now. It may be a rumor. Let's wait for the results of Wuying's investigation."
***
The next day.
Prince Qi's Mansion, Wutong Garden.
Mo Zhaohua came to visit Mo Yaohua who was recuperating.
"Look at me?" Mo Yaohua sneered, "Are you here to laugh at my joke?"
"Your Majesty, don't you want to see him?" Jinqiu was imprisoned, and now it was Nanny Wu and Qinghua who served her personally.
Qinghua works diligently and often tries to curry favor with Jinqiu, Nanny Wu and others, which has attracted their attention.
"Can I not see you?" Mo Yaohua really didn't want to see Mo Zhaohua, but she had not received a visiting invitation in advance.
Because Mo Zhaohua's visiting card had already been accepted by Chu Xuanhan, it didn't need to go through her at all, and she had no right to refuse.
Nanny Wu answered without thinking, "Of course you can. Your Majesty's current health condition makes it a perfect excuse."
Qinghua reminded him in time, "But the queen just met Aunt Lan two days ago. I'm afraid this is not a good idea."
"This..." Nanny Wu reacted, "How about you meet her, Your Majesty? She is the princess after all, we can't be rude to her."
Mo Yaohua bit the back of his teeth and said, "So even though I knew she was here to laugh at me, I had to put up with her anger today?"
Nanny Wu comforted her, "Your Highness, please relax. Princess Yu has a gentle personality and she won't say anything unpleasant."
Mo Yaohua felt guilty, but after hearing what Nanny Wu said, she thought of how stupid Mo Zhaohua was, and she felt relieved.
She sneered, "Forget it, since I can't escape, then let's meet. I want to see what ivory she can spit out of her dog's mouth."
Mo Zhaohua quickly brought Huaying and Zhenzhu into Wutong Garden. Because Mo Yaohua was still recuperating, he did not receive the guests in the main hall.
They entered the bedroom of the wing, and the servants inside all knelt down and saluted Mo Zhaohua, "Princess Yu, how are you?"
"No need to be polite." Mo Zhaohua walked into the inner room and looked down at the person lying on the bed. "How is the concubine?"
"I'm feeling better now. Thank you, elder sister..." Mo Yaohua deliberately said the wrong thing, and then changed the words, "Thank you, Princess Yu, for your concern."
Nanny Wu thought Mo Zhaohua would sit on the edge of the bed, but Qinghua was very attentive and moved a chair and placed it in front of the bed.
Mo Zhaohua sat down. "I wanted to come and see you earlier, but I was afraid that you were recovering and it would be inconvenient for you to see guests, so I delayed it for a few days."
Mo Yaohua said politely: "Princess Yu is very considerate. I was not able to see guests a few days ago. I was able to see Aunt Lan a few days ago when I felt better."
