The carved window frames were shining with the rising sun, and the majestic palace joy seemed to praise the supreme and noble artistic conception. Under countless eyes, the former king Meng Chang knelt on the wide carpet of the hall, fell to the ground, bowing again and again, "I only kneel to Your Highness for the crime of death, and begging the Queen Mother for forgiveness..."

"The Empress Dowager surrendered her kindness and was granted the title of Meng Chang and Duke of Qin." The voice of an eunuch rang out in a long time.

...After a long time, in a clear palace, Fu Jinzhan slowly paced between the documents and palaces, holding a stack of letters in her hand and reading them carefully. Her long skirt was dragging on the floor without caring. She sometimes covered her mouth and chuckled, and sometimes looked charming.

At this time, Guo Shao, wearing martial arts uniform, entered, clasped his fists and said, "I pay homage to the Queen Mother."

Fu Jinzan's white and jade-like face suddenly smiled and turned around and said, "Don't Qin (Meng Chang) be very respectful?"

"The Empress Dowager has the power to control people." Guo Shao straightened his waist and smiled.

Fu Jinzhan sat down on the soft-cushioned chair, gently brushed away her long sleeves, and said, "If he was still in Shu, he would not apologize so respectfully. He had to catch Tokyo first to have a way... Speaking of which, his father Meng Zhixiang established a foundation and could be called a hero in troubled times; he himself was not a foolish king before, otherwise he would not be able to take over the position of the king."

"What the Empress Dowager said is that no matter what, Meng Chang was a man who had been a monarch for many years after all." Guo Shao said, "I can't say that a person with such a high position can be happy to see him kneeling at the foot of the Empress Dowager."

"Oh?" Fu Jinzhan looked at Guo Shao's face with interest.

Guo Shao whispered: "I just want to see Jinzhang smoothly, and I like to see you smile." His voice gradually became more and more low-key, as if he was telling, "I am also thinking about what a woman like Jinzhang wants... a noble status and a generous environment, you need to feel safe without worrying, and someone can't help but pamper you from the bottom of your heart. Everything I do, I can get the greatest comfort, and see Jinzhang show such a charming smile..."

Fu Jinzhan listened with her ears. Although her expression was still dignified, her face became redder, her eyes flashed, and her chest was slightly undulating. She was wearing a loose dress, but in the midsummer, her clothes were very thin, and the soft material drooped from her high chest and trembled slightly with her breathing. The too soft skirt was also attached to her legs, and the tightly closed legs could not cover the outline of the legs. When she sat, she seemed to be wearing pants.

"General Guo comes here, I have something to say to you." Fu Jinzan's gentle voice was very natural, as if she was trying to maintain her current correct attitude.

Guo Shao took a few steps forward and walked over with his ears.

Fu Jinzhan owed her body and said softly in a depressing voice: "I want you now, right away."

...

Just after noon, Guo Shao walked out of the imperial city and got into a carriage. He felt very tired. He was uncontrollable at home last night, but it was not as short as this morning.

"Brother, it's only noon, where are we going?" Luo Mengzi said in his voice.

Guo Shao was not willing to think about what to do, he was addicted to the relaxation he had now. He had just returned to Tokyo, so he naturally didn't have to ask about the serious matters, and even ordinary soldiers were resting. However, Luo Mengzi's voice reminded Guo Shao... Lu Xiaoniang came from Kuizhou to Tokyo, and it was Luo Mengzi who led his troops to escort him.

Perhaps at some point, such as when he was sick and was taken care of by Lu Xiaoniang, he was moved, and Guo Shao liked this girl very much; but now thinking about her, Guo Shao was really thinking about her traveling thousands of miles to cure Wang Pu's illness, because Guo Shao's senses are now close to those of a saint, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for a woman to arouse his interest at this time, and it is too full.

"Third brother, come on the carriage, I have something to ask you." Guo Shao said.

The carriage stopped on the street. When Luo Mengzi got on the car, he was too fat and strong, so he squeezed a piece of carved wood from the car door. Guo Shao didn't care and said, "Go and find Lu Xiaoniang, you can give the groom the way. Where is she now?"

Luo Mengzi said: "Living in the inn."

Guo Shao frowned and said, "She cured the Privy Councilor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Wang Pu's life is very important. Why are he treated so unfairly?"

"Wang Pu's old and young... Wang Pu's envoy wanted Lu Xiaoniang to live in the mansion, but she didn't want it." Luo Mengzi said, "I asked her to live with 'Tofu Xishi' again. What did she say? I'm afraid I'm not sure about living in my house. Fuck! Will I, Lao Luo, still touch my elder brother's woman?"

"She is not my woman." Guo Shao said, reaching out and touching her body, asking, "Does the third brother have money?"

Luo Mengzi took out more than a dozen copper coins. Guo Shao said unhappily: "That's the point, didn't I reward you a lot of money?"

Luo Mengzi said helplessly: "Tofu Xishi took all the money, and she said she was afraid that I would go to the brothel to have sex with prostitutes."

"I'm convinced you." Guo Shao shook his head.

After walking for a long time, he stopped at an inn. Guo Shao followed Luo Mengzi in and recognized two men wandering in the corridor as his personal soldiers. He couldn't help but praise: "The third brother is becoming more and more reliable in doing things... By the way, when I want to spend money, I come to me to get it."

...Lu Lan opened the door and saw a group of martial artists wearing armor holding sharp edges standing at the door. However, she was not afraid, and she had already seen Guo Shao in the crack of the door. However, Lu Lan was petite and had to raise her head before she could see his face when she stood in front of Guo Shao. She was still a little stressed.

"Come in and talk, don't close the door." she said.

In fact, when the imperial guards returned to Beijing yesterday, she went to the roadside to see Guo Shao. She thought he would come to find her that day, but she didn't want to say anything. She looked at his very tired face and probably was busy after returning to Beijing.

Guo Shao clasped his fists and said, "I have to thank Miss Lu for helping him. Even the imperial doctor can't help Wang Enjun's illness. I admire him!"

At this time, a not-high-end inn had faded the paint on the chairs and there was dirt in the cracks in the wood. However, Lu Lan had never lived in any expensive places. The inns in Tokyo were relatively quiet, and she thought it was pretty good.

"General Guo, please sit down." Lu Lan poured him tea. There was a gap in the teacup, but it didn't affect the stuff. She felt that this was enough and she was always treating people like this.

However, when Guo Shao came, Lu Lan felt much more at ease. She lived alone in a foreign country where she was unfamiliar with her, and she didn't want to stay here anymore.

She also sat down on the chair next to the coffee table, "General Guo doesn't need to thank me. Did the third aunt find that person?"

Guo Shao hurriedly said, "I found it, my name is Li Liangyou, now I am Wang Zhaoyuan's son-in-law. Li Liangyou reunites with your third aunt and let Wang Zhaoyuan's daughter be a concubine. Now the family is reunited, in Chengdu."

When Lu Lan heard this, he whispered: "I think that Li Liangyou is unreliable, but Aunt San is looking for him with all her heart and can finally untie the knot... It's okay."

But for a moment, Lu Lan immediately thought: Then where am I going? My father has passed away, and the Bai family is only closest to the third aunt, and he cannot live with the third aunt to Li Liangyou's house... He can only go back to Wushan, and the Bai family is a relative of the uncle's family.

She glanced at Guo Shao, holding a breath of inexplicable anger in her heart, and said, "My business is done. If you have no relatives or reasons in Tokyo, please send someone to send me back."

Guo Shao pondered for a moment, picked up the teacup and took a sip. Such a cold situation gradually became a little awkward.

After a while, Guo Shao spoke carefully: "When he was in Zhuozhou, the Lu family had entertained me, and I and Divine Doctor Lu were considered as friends. Lady Lu had no place to stay in Tokyo now. I can entertain you in terms of emotion and reason. It is better to stay at my house for a while first, which is considered a polite exchange."

Lu Lan whispered: "What do you think? My third aunt used to go to Chengdu Prefecture and had no place to stay. After living in someone else's house for a few days, she said she stole people. People's words are terrifying."

"My mansion is not small, with many houses and many people living in it." Guo Shao said, "There is a place for guests to live in. When you are with Jing Niang, you are all girls, so what are the gossips about?"

Lu Lan said: "You and I are not close to you..." She said stubbornly, "I will not be someone else's concubine! If General Guo has clear grudges, he cannot force me."

Guo Shao said: "I want to force you, and I will be in such trouble?"

Lu Lan retorted speechlessly when she heard this.

Guo Shao leaned forward and whispered: "Miss Lu is not a relative in Tokyo, and no one knows you, who is afraid of gossiping?"

Lu Lan was immediately moved and lowered her head and whispered: "Then it's okay to stay at General Guo's house for a few days..."

Guo Shao then stood up and said, "Then let's go."

Lu Lan said: "You wait for me first, I'll pack up."

Guo Shao went out to wait first. After a long time, Lu Lan packed up a big bag and took it out, which contained books, changing clothes, daily necessities and other items. Guo Shao didn't break up and took it over, so he carried it himself and left. He explained to the martial artist next to him, and the man turned around and left first.

After leaving the house, he asked Lu Lan to get on the carriage. Lu Lan hesitated slightly and bent down and walked up. Suddenly, time seemed to flow back to Zhuozhou. The man on the roadside also invited him to get on the carriage, and everything seemed familiar.

Guo Shao sat opposite him, Lu Lan lowered her head and said nothing, looking a little restrained. Her mind was blank and she didn't know what to do in the future.

The two of them were speechless all the way. Guo Shao said a word from time to time, but Lu Lan ignored it. The sound outside gradually became noisy. She gently lifted the curtain and took a look. She saw that the street was full of cars and horses and people had already reached the most prosperous downtown.

The carriage stopped, Guo Shao got out first, but he didn't touch Lu Lan a single finger, which was very polite. This made Lu Lan feel much more at ease. She also got out of the car and looked around and saw a shop in front of her. The plaque on it said: Shen Chen and Li Zhizao.

"What did General Guo bring me here?" Lu Lan said in confusion.
