As for whether this action would cause the emperor to vent his anger on Prime Minister Li's family, that was not something he could control.

Speaking of the accounts with Li Qiulian and her daughter, others may not settle them, but Shao Wei wants to settle them.

He had no control over things in the past, but now that it concerns Gu Qinghe, he cannot tolerate it at all.

When he stepped into the gate of the general's mansion, the doorman had obviously heard the news of his return and happily welcomed him in, "Grandma Wang just went out to buy roast duck, and the housekeeper went to pick up the young master. If the young master sees the general later, he will be very happy."

Shao Wei curled his lips, and a smile appeared on his face, "Has he been well behaved these days?"

There were not many servants in the general's mansion, and almost all of them kept their eyes on Luo Feng all the time, fearing that he would be kidnapped by thieves like last time.

The concierge is no exception.

As soon as he heard the general asking about the young master, he immediately told him everything he knew.

"General, it's not like you don't know the young master's temper. When he first heard the news that you and Doctor Gu were going to Chizhou, the young master almost fainted from crying. Not to mention Granny Wang and the housekeeper, even Master Huo couldn't comfort him at all."

"Later, you wrote to me saying that you wanted the young master to go to Chizhou as well. The young master would wake up laughing every day after falling asleep. He even thought about what to do after arriving in Chizhou and when to get up to practice martial arts with the soldiers."

"Grandma Wang was worried that Chizhou's winters were too cold for him at such a young age, so she made him a cotton-padded jacket. She was waiting so happily, but then you wrote to me, saying that he could not go there."

The concierge recalled the young master's reaction at that time, spread his hands, and almost laughed out loud, "It was like the sky was falling, and he cried even harder than the first time."

Shao Wei also laughed twice, thinking of Luo Feng's tears and snot rolling down when he cried, he shook his head helplessly, "It seems that he still needs to exercise. He is already this old and cries when encountering something. He has no future."

The doorman lowered his head and smiled, not daring to say a word, but in his heart he felt indignant for his young master.

That person was so happy to go to Chizhou, and had prepared new clothes and shoes, but in the end, everything turned out to be empty-handed. It's normal for him to cry.

Speaking of this, the concierge felt a little distressed and whispered, "I heard from Grandma Wang that the young master is now unwilling to wear the cotton-padded clothes that were made at that time. I guess he is still sad."

Shao Wei touched his nose guiltily.

Huo Shibei also came during dinner. Although Ouyang Xia still wanted to avoid Gu Qinghe, she was reluctant to leave the food made by Grandma Wang, so she simply sat next to Lan Yu and ate her meal with her head down in silence.

Huo Shibei talked to Shao Wei about the Lin family's affairs and hesitated, "Do you think I should come forward now?"

If he had stood in the interrogation room with Madam Lin holding the jade pendant, King Wu might never have been able to recover.

But he was unwilling to accept this. If so, then his father's death would be entirely blamed on King Wu, while the real murderer was hiding in the dark, laughing happily.

"It's better not to," Shao Wei put down his chopsticks, "Now is not the best time. Even if you don't show up, King Wu will definitely fail this time. Just continue to follow your plan and don't be affected by these things."

Huo Shibei fell silent. He knew that his mind was not mature enough. This was also what his father had said to him.

He thought he had matured a lot during this period, but once something happened, his reckless thoughts would come out again.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince seems to have a good relationship with Princess Lirang. A few days ago, Your Highness brought her to my place. Princess Lirang doesn't look like a scheming person. Perhaps the marriage with Your Highness was indeed Lirang's idea."

Gu Qinghe's ears instantly caught Princess Lirang's words and he quietly asked, "When is the date of their wedding?"

"The eighth of next month."

That means there is only half a month left.

Gu Qinghe was very curious about Princess Lirang, and was mainly curious about why the marriage partner was changed this time.

"Your Majesty must be very annoyed by all the things that have happened so many times. Your Highness the Crown Prince may sympathize with Your Majesty and postpone the wedding."

Ouyang Xia finished her meal early and left. Lan Yu quickly ate a few mouthfuls and followed her out. Even after they were far away, they could still hear Lan Yu's voice, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not full yet."

Ouyang Xia's tone was very impatient, "I didn't ask you to follow me, just continue eating."

"You are mean to me. I will tell my brother when I get back."

Ouyang Xia seemed speechless.

Luo Feng was also full, so Shao Wei asked Grandma Wang to take him downstairs to rest for a while, and then he would go over to check his homework during this period.

Luo Feng was reluctant at first, but when he heard that his homework was going to be checked, his eyes widened and he immediately went back to his room.

There were only a few people left in the front hall. Shao Wei shook his head slightly and spoke again, "It's hard to say whether this marriage can be successful now."

Gu Qinghe immediately looked up, "What do you mean, Li Rang is making another move now?"

Otherwise where does this come from.

In the previous life, the Princess Lirang who married into the royal family died early because Lirang launched a war against Ruichao again. It seems that this time, Princess Lirang will not escape the same fate.

"Lirang is now in contact with the people of Huxiang again. Perhaps the two countries want to join forces."

A native of Huxiang?

Gu Qinghe had heard Lu Zhiyao mention this country in his early years.

When Lu Zhiyao was young, she traveled to Huxiang State. Although the number of women in this country was not as many as that of men, their status was much higher than that of men.

A woman can marry several husbands, but a man can only have one wife.

So much so that when Gu Qinghe saw Ouyang Xia's style before, he thought she had also been to Huxiang State.

But the status of women in Huxiang Kingdom was entirely maintained by their beast-taming skills. In the past, she liked to listen to Lu Zhiyao's stories before going to bed every time. The stories of Huxiang Kingdom were very attractive to Gu Qinghe, and she pestered Lu Zhiyao to listen for several days in a row.

Even though so many years have passed, the impression is still very deep.

When Lu Zhiyao first went to Huxiang State, the territory of Huxiang was not as large as it is now.

But over the years they have also annexed many small tribes and occupied a lot of land. I believe that this time they are cooperating with Lirang with the intention of expanding their own country.

But what Gu Qinghe had heard about were things that happened many years ago, and he didn't know much about Hu Xiang in recent years.

So she asked Shao Wei, "Do women in Huxiang still have a high status now?"

"Yes, but in the past two years, the men of Huxiang State seem to have resisted very strongly, so that Huxiang is now divided into two factions."

It is normal for different countries to have different customs and habits. Shao Wei does not think there is any problem with it. As for the resistance, he is also very open-minded. It is just that the status of men and women in Huxiang is reversed from that in other countries.

Some women can't stand such treatment, and naturally there are also men who can't stand it.

As for who wins or loses in the end, Shao Wei doesn't care.
