"It's right not to be high-profile, but there's no need to deliberately hide anything. The emperor has specially sent General Xiao Shen to escort the empress. As long as the emperor's whereabouts are not revealed to the public, there is no need to hide the fact that our empress returns home to visit relatives."

The empress's holy favor is so great that it would be unreasonable to hide it.

What's more, the emperor's private visit, with the empress returning home to visit relatives, was exposed in front of others. Everyone's attention was on the empress, which made it more convenient for the emperor to investigate the public sentiment.

"How long can the empress stay in the mansion?" the old lady asked.

Su smiled and replied: "The queen said she can stay at home for at least more than a month."

Two days later, the team escorting the concubine arrived in Yangning City, headed by Shen Chi. He was sitting on a blood-white horse, wearing silver armor, and exuding scorching brilliance under the sunlight.

In the middle of the team is a gorgeous carriage pulled by four groups of horses. The carriage is very rich and noble. The four corners are inlaid with egg-sized luminous pearls, which are dazzling. The long tassels hang down and sway in the wind. Both sides of the carriage are green. The palace maid dressed in pink followed slowly.

At the entrance of the Lu Mansion, the old lady led the entire Lu family and stood at the door to greet them. Looking at the slowly approaching team, tears filled her eyes with excitement.

"Old Madam Wan'an is in Shenchi, and she has been ordered by the Emperor to protect the concubine when she returns."

Shen Chi turned over and dismounted, and saluted the old lady. The handsome young man was high-spirited. He was wearing a dark basket-colored robe. The placket and cuffs were embroidered with a picture of a crane flying in the sea of ​​clouds with exquisite silver thread. He was paired with an empty gold lace belt, which made him look elegant. Chic and outstanding.

The old lady was immediately frightened. This was the eldest son of General Zhongyong. He was very prestigious when he marched with his father and was known as General Xiao Shen. How could he dare to accept his courtesy?

"You have worked hard all the way, General Shen. Come to the mansion and have a cup of hot tea." The old lady turned sideways, avoiding Shen Chi's salute, and said politely.

Shen Chi smiled heartily: "The empress has finally returned home to reunite with her relatives and she has something to say. I will not bother you today and will visit you again in a few days."

"This..." The old lady paused. At this moment of hesitation, she saw Shen Chi walking to the carriage in the middle.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is tired from traveling and traveling. Please come to your mansion to rest. Your ministers are in charge of the post. Your Majesty, if you have anything to do, please give your orders to your ministers at any time."

"Thank you, General Shen." In the carriage, the concubine's voice was like an oriole coming out of the valley, melodious and melodious, like a gurgling stream, clear and sweet.

Shen Chi didn't stay long, took his horse and left.

The palace maids then lifted the curtain of the carriage, and then the concubine's slender breasts stretched out from the carriage, her wrists were covered with white-skinned red jade shoots, and slender nephrite jade peeled spring onions.

Everyone at the gate of the Lu Mansion knelt on the ground: "Welcome to the concubine, your concubine, Jin An."

With the help of the palace maid, the concubine stepped out of the carriage on footrests. Under the bright sunshine, the woman was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with gemstones and black hair on her temples, just like the moon in the misty spring night that makes people think of it. The face is beautiful with make-up, the two willow-leaf eyebrows are swept into the temples, the eyelashes are thick and long, and if you look closely, you can vaguely see the surging water under the eyes.

"Please get up quickly." Concubine Zhen suppressed her inner excitement and raised her hand to tell everyone to get up.

He walked into the Lu Mansion surrounded by everyone, and the guards immediately dispersed around the Lu Mansion to protect the safety of the concubines.

Walking all the way to the old lady's courtyard, the concubine finally took off her dignified disguise. Her knees softened and she knelt down to the old lady: "My daughter is not filial. She has not been able to accompany her mother to fulfill her filial piety all these years."

The old lady was startled and hurriedly pulled the concubine up: "You are the emperor's concubine, how can you kneel to me?"

"There are no emperor's concubines here, only mothers' daughters." Outside, she was the emperor's concubine and represented the royal family. She could only watch her mother kneel and kowtow to her.

But after entering the Lu family, she was just her mother's daughter.

The old lady swallowed harder, and the big tears fell down like broken pearls.

The concubine kowtowed to the old lady three times, and the old lady quickly pulled her up.

Mrs. Liu was very fast, and in a few seconds she squeezed to the other side of the concubine and held her hand: "The empress misses the old lady. The old lady also misses the empress very much. I hope that everything is well for the empress in the palace. As long as the empress

Anhao is the greatest filial piety to the old lady."

Her smiling words touched the hearts of both of them, but the old lady felt depressed when she saw Mrs. Liu and was not moved by it.

Concubine Zhen had never seen Mrs. Liu before, so she looked at the old lady doubtfully: "Who is this?"

Without waiting for the introduction from the old lady, Lady Liu hurriedly knelt down and saluted Concubine Zhen, saying, "I am Lady Liu, and I am bringing my little daughter's pearl to pay homage to Concubine Zhen."

When Lu Mingzhu saw this, she immediately walked up to the concubine, her bright little face flushed with excitement: "Mingzhu has met your empress." She has been confined in the North Courtyard, but now that the concubine is back, the old lady and her father cannot stay confined.

He loved her, so he temporarily lifted her confinement, but she couldn't move back to the Lotus Garden yet.

The aunt said that she would take advantage of the time when the concubine was back to please her aunt, so that the old lady would not dare to rub her anymore.

Concubine Zhen didn't realize who Mrs. Liu was for a moment, but when she heard the three words "Lu Mingzhu", her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and a look of joy appeared on her face: "You are the pearl, come here and ask me to take a good look at it."

.”

What?

Seeing the concubine Zhen being so kind to Lu Mingzhu, a foreign girl, almost made everyone's eyes pop. Even Liu and Lu Mingzhu were shocked, and were stunned by this sudden surprise.

Lu Mingzhu glanced at Ms. Liu, who winked at her eagerly and hurriedly took the opportunity to get close to the concubine. Then, her face flushed with excitement and she took a few steps forward. She was flattered and called out again: "Auntie..."

She just wanted to not let go of any opportunity to please Zhenbi. After all, if she could be liked by Zhenbi, her status in the Lu family would be close to that of Lu Xiang or even surpass her. But she never expected that Zhenbi would treat her like

Being so close to him, is it really because he is naturally lovable? Even the concubine, whom he has never met before, fell in love with him at the first sight.

"Fuyue, take my set of sapphire jewelry and give it to Mingzhu." Zhenbi said softly, looking at Lu Mingzhu's eyes, she was as happy as if she were looking at her own daughter.

I'll do it...

Aunt Fang was so angry that her eyes twisted and her mouth twisted, and she twisted the handkerchief into a twist in jealousy. She really wanted to push her daughter out to gain favor, but she didn't dare.

Before she got married, the concubine was not very friendly to them. She didn't dare to offend this aunt at first, and now she doesn't dare to be presumptuous anymore. Her beautiful eyes shot towards Liu and Lu Mingzhu like sharp swords, wishing they could kill their mother and daughter.

Poke it into a sieve.

Aunt Lin grabbed Lu Qiao's hand, her fingertips turned white because of too much force, and her lowered head made it difficult to see her expression.

Aunt Yao looked at the Liu family and her daughter in disbelief, and was greatly shocked.

Lu Qing, who has always been picky, is so affectionate to a daughter from an outsider's family. It's really a ghost.
