Xiao Ruo opened the window and looked at the people coming and going from the stalls on both sides of the street. She said in surprise, "Miss, there are so many people in Shangjing City!"

Wan Rong smiled and turned to look. "All the dignitaries in the entire Dali period are here, so there are naturally a lot of people."

Shangjing is much more prosperous than Li County. Xiao Ruo feels that even if all the people in Li County were put together, there probably wouldn't be as many people as on this long street that seems to have no end.

"When you were a concubine in the palace, would you have many servants waiting on you, would you be able to see countless gems every day, and eat the most delicious food in the world?"

Wan Rong was silent for a moment.

Xiao Ruo suddenly realized and slapped her mouth, "Look at me..." Mentioning the palace, isn't that just rubbing salt into her own girl's wounds?

Wan Rong smiled lightly, but she didn't mind it too much. If Xiao Ru didn't tell her, she would have almost forgotten what happened in the palace. "Where did you hear this from? It's too inaccurate. There are no countless gems in the palace, nor are there any delicacies from the world..." Only the cold moon and warm sun, frying people's life.

Xiao Ruo smiled innocently, "I read all this from the storybook."

It's a bit inaccurate.

However, if the storybook only contains the bad things in the palace, I am afraid no one would want to read it.

"Uu——"

The groom sighed softly and said through the door curtain, "Miss, we're here."

Suddenly feeling some pain in her waist, Xiao Ruo first lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, then brought over a footstool and helped the person down.

"Wow, girl, what a luxurious building."

Wan Rong chuckled, "Don't look at it anymore. Go in quickly. Didn't you say you were hungry?"

"oh oh."

I was indeed hungry. Before I even entered the door, I could smell the aroma coming from the restaurant. Wan Rong came in with someone, and the shopkeeper behind the counter came over with a look in his eyes and asked, "But Miss Wan Rong?"

Xiao Ruo stood in front of her daughter and answered for her, "She is really my daughter."

"Miss Ji is already waiting for you in the private room upstairs. Please come this way." The shopkeeper personally led the way and Wan Rong followed.

Outside the private room, Wan Rong untied his purse and handed it to Xiao Ruo, saying, "Take the groom and have something to eat. You've been traveling for half a day, don't get hungry."

"Hey! Thank you, girl!" Xiao Ruo turned around and trotted down.

Wan Rong pushed the door open and saw someone sitting in the window seat. "Sister Ji, long time no see."

Ji Mengshu put down the teacup and stood up to greet her. "How are you, Sister Wan? You must have had a hard time on this journey. Please sit down quickly... You didn't reply to my message for a long time, and I thought you wouldn't come."

Wan Rong took a sip of tea and said, "I had not originally planned to come, but I have something unfinished in Beijing..." She seemed not ready to say it out loud, and ate snacks with her tea.

The hot dishes came up quickly, soothing the hard work and fatigue of the whole day.

Wan Rong was eating, his white fingertips shrank, and he said, "I heard that General Ji went to Zhenzhou?"

Originally, other people didn't know about this matter. Ji Mengshu didn't know where she got the information from, but she didn't hide it from her. She said, "It is true, but Sister Wan, don't worry. Prince Huai doesn't have many troops, so even if we fight head-on, my brother won't suffer any loss."

As if afraid that Wan Rong was just worried about his brother, Ji Mengshu ignored himself and frowned, "But my brother already had an old injury. What if the old injury relapses when he goes to Zhenzhou? There is no one close to him to take care of him..."

These words touched Wan Rong's heart. Back when she was at Ji's house, she knew that Ji Yuanzheng's old injury had not yet fully healed. When it was not rainy, she estimated that the pain in his body was even worse.

Zhenzhou is in the northern border, and it is autumn now. Shangjing is under the cold autumn rain, and Zhenzhou is probably under the knife. How can his body bear it?

"You don't have to worry too much. I'm sure General Ji will take good care of himself in Zhenzhou." Wan Rong chewed a mouthful of greens and swallowed it slowly. "Before, I left Shangjing before you woke up. Do you blame me in your heart?"

"How could that be? Speaking of which, I suddenly fainted before and stayed in the palace all day. Sister Wan must have been worried sick, right? My brother doesn't know how to take care of people. I was thinking what would happen if he didn't take good care of people. Later, when I woke up, I found out that Sister Wan had passed away. You see, I said he didn't know how to take care of people. Sister Wan didn't hold grudges and was willing to come back. I'm very happy."

She said this as if she, as a guest, was not accustomed to the host's hospitality.

"Now that everyone is safe and sound, it is the best arrangement."

After the meal, the sun was shining brightly.

"Sister Wan, please don't be polite with me. I have a house in Shangjing City. It's empty now. I have asked people to clean it up. Sister Wan, you can live there from now on." Ji Mengshu smiled and winked at her.

Wan Rong said, "You are very considerate. I will respectfully obey your command."

"After all, Sister Wan came specially to attend my wedding, so of course I have to entertain her well."

The two got on the carriage and headed to the house in the city.

As they talked, they arrived outside the somewhat quiet house, which was also Ji Mengshu's temporary shelter. Therefore, it has been preserved.

Ji Mengshu's wedding date has not been set yet, but she will have to wait until Ji Yuanzheng returns to Beijing. Then, she will be able to see him.

After great difficulty, they got together again. Although it was not a move into a new house, they still had to invite someone to come over to warm up the house.

Wan Rong walked in and found that the maids and servants in the house were all busy. Ji Mengshu came up to her and said, "I invited Wei Zheng and He Hui to come over tonight. I think these two sisters Wan must have heard of it."

The family affairs of the young master of the Wei family are probably well known to even three-year-old children in Shangjing City. As for He Hui, she was also very popular in Shangjing City because of her reputation as the late emperor's fiancée.

"That's good. This way, I won't feel so lonely in the capital."

The star had just appeared, and a maid was leading the way, bringing a pair of beautiful ladies over.

Ji Mengshu was standing in the middle of the corridor, already wearing a cloak. "Miss He!" She waved at everyone, and He Hui let go of Wei Zheng's hand and ran towards her.

Wei Zheng curled his lips and put his empty hands behind his back, "Miss Ji, don't you see me as a living person?"

What a coincidence, there really isn't one. Ji Mengshu had to turn her head back and said, "Master Wei supports my brother to go to Zhenzhou, how come you didn't see that my brother's injuries haven't healed yet?"

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I apologize to the girl here!"
