But they couldn't hide for a while, and according to their speed, they rushed back to Chang'an within five days.Gu Jixiu went back to the palace alone, while Qingzhi changed the carriage and returned to the Marquis Mansion.

Fang Lansheng got out of the carriage and smiled calmly at Qingzhi as usual, as if nothing had happened: "Your Majesty, I'd better go wash up quickly, I think he will have to enter the palace in a while. Uncle, tell the cook to make some snacks and prepare them in the carriage, and the Marquis can have some snacks on the way to the palace later."

Uncle Sun, who had been waiting at the gate of the Hou's Mansion, nodded hurriedly and beckoned for arrangements.

Fang Lansheng bowed to Qing Zhi again: "Master Hou's clothes are not in compliance with the rules. If you want to enter the palace now, you should go into the house and change into an official uniform."

"Then... what about you?" Qing Zhi suddenly said this, seeing Fang Lansheng smiled slightly: "Lan Sheng naturally has something to do, and the Hou Ye has been away from the mansion for so long, many things in the mansion still need to be sorted out, etc. Lord Hou looked it over, and with the end of the month approaching, many things on the accounts have been delayed.... In addition, Master Hou mentioned in Shencheng that he wanted to buy Liu Dafu's annex, and he had to send someone to handle it."

Qing Zhi swallowed, and couldn't help sighing: "Lan Sheng, what would I do without you!"

These words caused Fang Lansheng to raise his head. Seeing the panic in Qingzhi's eyes, he smiled again, and blocked his explanation first: "Lansheng lives in the Hou Mansion, and is appreciated by the Emperor under the care of Lord Hou. He also received Fengyin from the manor, so naturally he has to do things for Lord Hou with all his heart, and Lord Hou doesn't need to think too much." After saying that, he waved his sleeves, left Qing Zhi behind, and left without looking back.

This battle...it seems like a revenge for Qing Zhi Bao who was thrown by him that night...



Sure enough, as Fang Lansheng said, news came from the palace as soon as Qingzhi finished changing the government.He got into the carriage, creaked and swayed to the palace.

After entering the door, he prostrated himself on the ground and shouted the auspiciousness of the Empress Dowager. The old empress helped him up, looked around again, and then let go of Qingzhi: "I'm skinny and black! But it's good to be back safely!"

Qingzhi helped the old queen's hand and led her to sit down again.

He thought that Gu Lingyin's absconding would be a big blow to the old lady, but he didn't expect that the old lady was still very energetic, and even when Qingzhi tentatively asked about Gu Lingyin, he slammed the ground with his cane: "This bastard! , if Aijia catches her, he will definitely not let her go easily!"

"Empress Dowager, don't be angry, grandson has already sent someone to look for Huang Jie, and the news has been blocked. I think Huang Jie made such a move in a moment of confusion." Gu Jixiu put down the teacup in his hand, and interjected.

"Confused for a while? The Ai family doesn't look like it. Yin'er and the emperor grew up next to the Ai family. Why doesn't the Ai family know your temperament? Usually, the Ai family indulged her too much and allowed her to raise her." Those messy things are in the house, and they have been reluctant to marry for a long time. Now that it’s 26 and seven, if you continue to play like this, how will the Ai family have the face to meet your father in the future?!"

After all, she was getting old and said so many words in one breath, the old lady still grabbed Qing Zhi beside her, closed her eyes and took a few breaths before she regained her strength.

Gu Jixiu knew that he shouldn't talk too much, so he also walked over from the front, and was relieved to see that the old lady was fine.He turned to Qingzhi again: "Qingzhi and Huangjie have always been on good terms, and before going on tour, Huangjie also visited Xinyanghou's Mansion."

Qingzhi hurriedly repeated what he had said to Gu Jixiu in the carriage, and the old lady waved her hands again and again, expressing her reluctance to listen: "Aijia usually spoils this girl too much, and Aijia can do whatever she wants. What do you give her to get used to her temper! This time, no matter what, Aijia will not follow her wishes. When did I have a princess who was over 26 years old and has not left the court in Daxing Dynasty? Could it be that she will do it? Is a princess who makes people laugh for a hundred years happy?"

"There is no need to worry about the Empress Dowager, the grandson has sent someone to hurry up and find the Empress Dowager."

"Aijia no matter what, before NO.30 of this month, we must find Yin'er!"

The two looked at each other, but neither of them dared to speak for Gu Lingyin again, disobeying the old man in front of him.I've run out of good things to say, and that's it.

After seeing off the old lady and returning to the palace, seeing the emperor's cousin buried in a pile of memorials, Qingzhi had no choice but to stand aside silently to accompany him.

It wasn't until the lights came on that he returned to the house dressed in starlight.

As soon as he got into the carriage, he remembered the task that Gu Jixiu gave him just now—how to find Gu Lingyin! ?

Five days have passed since she absconded, and all the servants of the princess mansion have been arrested and interrogated in the palace.Although Gu Lingyin had ten male favourites, this time he only took Rong Ruo away alone, and no one else knew their whereabouts.

What's more, Gu Lingyin's absconding has nothing to do with him, and he hasn't even figured out whether he should take on such trouble.

It was the end of summer, but perhaps because of trifles in his mind, Qingzhi sitting in the carriage seemed a little hot, so he simply lifted the curtain.

"Liufu, stop the car."

When Liufu stopped the car steadily, Qingzhi jumped down, pulled out the bone fan from his waist with his backhand, and waved his hand behind him: "You guys go back first, Master Hou, I will go shopping on the street before going back."
