The courtyard was very small, with only two entrances, and Mrs. Zhou was quickly brought in.

The reception room had not been tidied up, so Shangguan Ruoli met Mrs. Zhou outside the newly tidied bedroom.

Mrs. Zhou appears to be in her early thirties, with a flushed skin that is typical of people who live in bitterly cold places all year round. Her figure is slightly stout, her appearance is medium, her eyebrows are kind, and she is somewhat majestic as the mistress of a family.

When she saw the gorgeous Shangguan Ruoli, she was stunned for a moment.

Because Shangguan Ruoli was wearing casual clothes with narrow sleeves and did not have anything to prove his identity, he did not dare to salute rashly.

Rejoice said calmly: "Mrs. Zhou, this is my Princess Xuan."

Mrs. Zhou came back to her senses, folded her skirt and saluted: "My wife, Mrs. Liu of Zhou family, pays homage to Princess Xuan, may you be blessed and safe!"

Shangguan Ruoli said calmly: "You can get away with it without any ceremony."

"Thank you, Princess!" Mrs. Zhou was helped by the maid to stand up.

Shangguan Ruoli smiled lightly and said, "Mrs. Zhou, please sit down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat!" Mrs. Zhou blessed herself, then sat down on the chair, only sitting a quarter of the way.

He is a follower of etiquette and knows the rules.

Mrs. Zhou narrowed her eyes and said respectfully: "Mozhen was plundered by Beiling soldiers and supplies were scarce. My wife brought some daily necessities to the princess. Although the barren land is not as exquisite and precious as the things in the capital, it can barely

It solves an urgent need, and please don’t dislike it, Princess."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhou, you are so polite. You are really helping me in times of need. I am deeply grateful."

Mrs. Zhou smiled humbly and said: "This is what I should do. I also brought a few maids and wives here. I wonder if the princess has enough manpower?"

Things can be delivered directly, but things are different with people.

Therefore, she did not directly say that she would give the person to Shangguan Ruoli for his use, but asked Shangguan Ruoli what he meant.

It's better to use it, and she is considerate even if it is not needed.

This is still a smart person. Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Zhou. The people around me are enough."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "Well, if the princess lacks anything, let someone tell me. I have been at this border for many years, so I must be familiar with it."

"Okay," Shangguan Ruoli nodded, "The weather here is bad, so I feel sorry for Mrs. Zhou."

"Being able to follow your husband is not a big deal." A trace of red cloud appeared on Mrs. Zhou's face, and she looked very happy.

When the two met for the first time, they had nothing to talk about. After chatting for a few words about the local customs, Mrs. Zhou stood up and left, saying, "The princess has just arrived here. She must have many things to arrange, so I won't bother you too much."

With that said, he stood up and bowed to say goodbye.

Shangguan Ruoli smiled lightly: "Thank you for your hard work, Mrs. Zhou." Then he said to Sha Xuan: "Send Mrs. Zhou out for me."

However, Mrs. Zhou knelt there and did not get up. She seemed to be hesitant to speak and was worried.

Shangguan Ruoli frowned, "Mrs. Zhou, do you still have something to say?"

Mrs. Zhou kowtowed and said, "I do have something to say to the princess."

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't guess what would happen to her, so he said, "Mrs. Zhou, please tell me if you have anything to say."

"Princess, can you please step aside?" After Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, her maid left the room very sensibly.

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows slightly, then stepped back?

There are secrets everywhere!

With her eyes, she signaled Rejoice and Sassoon to step back, and then said, "Mrs. Zhou, please tell me."

Mrs. Zhou kowtowed and said, "It's about the former crown princess."

Shangguan Ruoli narrowed his eyes slightly, "Shangguan Ruoxian?"

Mrs. Zhou said: "My husband was an old subordinate of General Shangguan. Miss Shangguan came to see my wife a month ago, borrowed some silver from her and left. My wife wanted to stay with General Shangguan because of her kindness.

She, she said she didn’t want to implicate us, so she asked us to open the city gate and let her into Beiling..."

As she said that, she looked at Shangguan Ruoli's face carefully, but she could not see any emotion or anger. She kowtowed and said, "I don't know if I am doing the right thing, but I am the daughter of General Shangguan. She is only doing this to repay General Shangguan."

The kindness I showed to my husband back then.”

She was far away at the border and did not know many things in the capital. But as a border soldier, Zhou Haiyang still paid attention to major events in the capital. She had heard a little bit about the disagreement between Shangguan Ruoli and Shangguan Ruoxian.

By saying this now, one is to plead guilty and clarify one's position. The other is to tell Shangguan Ruoxian that he fled into Beiling and ask Shangguan Ruoli to be more careful.

Besides, she felt that Shangguan Ruoli and Shangguan Ruoxian were sisters after all, and blood was thicker than water. Shangguan Ruoli didn't want Shangguan Ruoxian to die, so she wanted to take credit for telling this.

As everyone knows, Shangguan Ruoli really wanted Shangguan Ruoxian to die, but this guy was so lucky that he actually fled to Beiling.

Shangguan Ruoli said, "Thank you so much, Mrs. Zhou. It happened too suddenly. I was trapped in the palace and had no time to help her. Fortunately, she was smart enough to escape. I don't know if she went to Beiling but

There are people who want to take refuge, where will they stay now?"

Could it be that he went to seek refuge with Dongming Yuehua?

Impossible, Dongming Yuehua looks down on Shangguan's daughter.

But that's not necessarily the case. After all, Shangguan Ruoxian is the Crown Princess and Dongming Yuehua's sister-in-law.

Mrs. Zhou shook her head and said: "This minister doesn't know that since she left Dongming, there has been no news about her."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Zhou. I and the Shangguan family are aware of your relationship with General Zhou."

Indeed, Shangguan Ruoxian has become a key criminal, with no use value, and can also bring disaster to her life. The Zhou family took the risk of letting her live, and they can only do it for Shangguan Tianxiao's face.

After all, Shangguan Ruoxian has always been Shangguan Tianxiao's beloved daughter, and no one knows that she is Liu Xianghe's son.

The reason why Mrs. Zhou didn't talk about this until the end was because she was afraid that Shangguan Ruoli would blame them if he thought about Shangguan Ruoxian's death. She waited until Shangguan Ruoli collected the things before talking about it. If someone has short hands, he would be less angry.

Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I don't dare to be a minister. My wife and my husband also want to repay the kindness of General Shangguan."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled lightly and said, "Okay, please step aside."

"My wife, please leave." Mrs. Zhou saluted again and exited the room.

The smile on Shangguan Ruoli's face disappeared. Shangguan Ruoxian's survival ability is still strong. This time she was asked to come to Beiling. Is there any trick on her part?

Just as he was thinking about it, Dongming Ziyu came back with a long stride, his face a little ugly.

Shangguan Ruoli wondered: "Hey, His Highness Prince Xuan, who always has an iceberg-like face, why is his face so dark?"

"Humph!" Dongming Ziyu snorted coldly and went into the room to change clothes.

Shangguan Ruoli Bagua got up and grabbed Mo Wen, who was about to go in to serve him, and asked, "Gouzi, what's wrong with your master? Who dares to offend him?"

Mo Wen pouted and said: "Princess, I will tell you if I promise not to call you a slave, a dog, or a slave in the future."

"Uh! Okay." Shangguan Ruoli compromised.
