Half a quarter of an hour later, the Fang family's carriage stopped steadily in front of the Houfu gate.

Fang Lan got out of the car and walked quickly to the mansion. He glanced at Ye Ming, who was leading the way, and whispered, "In such a hurry, Xiao Xuxin is in trouble?"

Ye Ming opened his mouth and told Fang Lan everything about Fang Xu picking up people and bringing them home.

Ye Ming had a smile on his face and whispered, "Mrs. Lan, you are well-informed and have made friends with many dignitaries. Our lady wants you to check in and find out the identity of your mother-in-law."

"What do I think is such a big deal!" Fang Lan frowned and said in a displeased tone, "Xiao Xu really doesn't know what's going on and brings people back casually?"

Ye Ming looked embarrassed and whispered, "Mrs. Lan, calm down. Our madam is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see the elderly suffer..."

Xunfang followed her and also advised her, "Miss, don't be annoyed with Madam Hou, she is a good person."

The little round face couldn't help but nod, for fear that his wife would not be able to control her emotions and would give Mrs. Hou a shudder when they met.

Fang Lan glanced at them angrily and raised the corner of her mouth, "Look at how scared you all are. Xiao Xu is the matron of the family. Can I still punish her?"

The three people behind him looked at each other, and no one dared to say a word.

The sister's sense of oppression is natural, so they are naturally worried.

While talking and laughing, several people entered the front hall.

Fang Xu was sitting at the top, holding his forehead. Hearing movement outside the door, he looked up and saw Fang Lan, with a smile on his face, "Sister is here."

Fang Lan walked to the center of the hall, and Xunfang and Xiao Yuanlian behind him knelt down and saluted together.

"You called me, how could I not come?" Fang Lan teased her with a smile, his eyes fell on the dark purple back beside him, and said quietly, "This...is the person Xiao Xu rescued?"

Fang Xu nodded, looked at the old lady, and said softly, "Mother-in-law, this is my biological sister."

After hearing this, the old woman moved and turned to look at Fang Lan.

With just one glance, Fang Lan slid to his knees.

Fang Xu looked surprised and whispered, "Sister, what are you doing?"

Fang Lan glared at her, then saluted the old lady and said loudly, "Ms. Fang, a commoner woman, has met Princess Gu'an!"

The hall was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.

Fang Xu didn't react for a moment and murmured, "Gu'an... eldest princess?"

Fang Lan lowered his head slightly, and the panic on his face didn't seem to be fake.

Fang Xu looked solemn and said softly, "Sister, you get up first..."

"Shut up." Fang Lan glanced at her and whispered back, "The eldest princess hasn't spoken yet, so why should we talk?"

Fang Xu paused and turned to look at the old lady beside him.

The old lady pinched the bridge of her nose, she looked tired and had a headache, and whispered, "Get up and talk, don't scare my darling."

"Yes." Fang Lan stood up angrily, his clothes already soaked with sweat.

The old lady stood up slowly, smiled kindly at Fang Xu, and softened her voice, "My dear, you chat first, I'm a little sleepy, so go back and take a nap first."

<divclass="contentadv">Fang Xu was worried about not being able to find a chance to be alone with his sister, so he immediately responded, "Ye Ming, help my mother-in-law back quickly!"

Ye Ming naturally heard Mrs. Lan's words about eldest princess, and he could not hide the panic on his face. Hearing this, he hurriedly held the old lady's arm and said respectfully, "Old lady, the little one will go with you."

Seeing the old lady leave the front yard, Fang Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to turn around to talk to his sister, he got a sudden shock out of thin air.

"Hiss—" Fang Xu covered his forehead and looked at his sister with a rather resentful look, "Why did my sister hit me for nothing?"

"You, you, tell me what you can say to me!" Fang Lan blushed angrily and lowered her voice, "Tell me the truth, how did you abduct Princess Gu'an home!"

Fang Xu's usually calm expression was completely cracked, leaving only grievance, "I really saw her fainting in the plum blossom forest. I couldn't bear it when I saw her age, so I brought her back."

"Nonsense!" Fang Lan objected with a look of suspicion on his face, "You are the emperor, and all your relatives are cabbages. Can you pick them up everywhere?"

"Besides... that is Princess Gu'an, a big shot who can only be seen in portraits!" Fang Lan covered her heart and whispered, "Can a noble person of this level be picked up casually?"

Fang Xu looked surprised and whispered, "I just thought she was a lost old lady from an ordinary wealthy family, Princess Gu'an... What is her background?"

Fang Lan turned pale with fright, raised his hand to cover her mouth, and scolded in a low voice, "Walls have ears, be careful what you say!"

Perhaps out of her younger sister's natural fear of her older sister, Fang Xu didn't dare to interrupt, so she could only nod her head obediently.

Seeing her cooperation, Fang Lan let go of her hand and whispered, "Princess Gu'an is the aunt of the current Holy Emperor, a legendary woman in the history of Great Yan."

"Legend?" Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, "What kind of legend method?"

Fang Lan glanced at her, "I told you to go out often, but you haven't even heard the story of Princess Gu'an. You are so ignorant!"

"During the reign of the Supreme Emperor, wars between Dayan and Northwest continued, and the people of the two countries complained endlessly. Northwest could not resist the public opinion at first and was defeated. The two countries negotiated a peace and used marriage as a bridge to check and balance each other."

"The eldest princess's real name is Yuan Nianci, and she is the Emperor's favorite sister. Originally, the marriage did not fall on her." Fang Lan sighed softly, "But none of the princesses in the royal family wanted to go to the bitter cold place to get married. Some of them were sick. , marry someone who marries someone."

"When the eldest princess heard about it, she took the initiative to ask Ying to take on this important task. She, who was still unmarried at the age of twenty-five, resolutely put on her wedding clothes and went to the northwest."

"Her title was changed at that time, Gu'an...she carried the hopes of everyone in Dayan."

"The eldest princess of Gu'an came to the northwest and brought Dayan culture to the local area, which brought decades of peace between the two countries."

Fang Lan shook her head, with a look of regret on her face, "It's just that... life was bad. Yuan Di once told me that the eldest princess only had one daughter, and she... died within a hundred days."

Fang Xu's expression moved slightly, he pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.

"When I was still Princess Zhan, I saw her portrait." Fang Lan lowered his eyelids and said softly, "How could such a legend faint in the woods for no reason?"

"Her head must have been hit by a heavy object, and there was a large bruise." Fang Xu lowered his eyes with a solemn expression, "Unlike amnesia, she remembers some things."

"Many years of depression have not gone away. She regards me as her daughter." Fang Xu leaned on the armrest with a gentle voice. "Just now at the door, she had a fight with Pei Heng's grandmother to protect me."

"Daughter?" Fang Lan was stunned and murmured, "If my father were still alive and saw today's scene, he would be so excited that he would hold a banquet and treat guests for three days..."

"By the way, did you just say that Pei Heng's grandmother is here?" Fang Lan's expression changed, and he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with her again?"

"Of course he is acting rogue in the name of Pei Heng." Fang Xu's eyes darkened, and a strange color flashed in his eyes, "But... this time, it seems different from before."
