Morong Gan had been watching Bai Qianfan at Huailin Pavilion for two whole days straight. On that day, he combed her hair, as if he wanted to fix it. Bai Qianfan did not hide when she saw him and greeted him with a smile, "Your highness is back."
Yang Liniang squatted down by the side and said in a flirtatious voice, "Greetings to Your Highness."
Morong Gan acknowledged her, then turned and entered the house to ask Hao Pingguan, "Is the wangfei here to help with the cooking these two days?"
Yes, they have all come, "Hao Pingguan accompanied him in, his face filled with smiles," Miss Qi Hong was afraid that Miss Qi Hong would smoke her up and let Princess Hua-Yang sit outside, but she was still unhappy, saying that it was your will, Master. Yesterday, she was lying under the stove and lighting a fire. After rubbing his nose full of dust, today, she had soaked the surface of her shoes in water and was still wearing Lady Qi Hong's shoes. "But this servant is very happy to see his do it. Our princess isn't a spoiled child. She's willing to do anything, and everyone likes her."
Looking at Morong Gan's expression as he spoke, after Princess Hua-Yang returned home, his attitude towards her seemed to have changed, he thought that Princess Hua-Yang would bring people to the house to cause trouble for his, but there was no such thing, the Prince had even personally agreed to let Miss Yang stay, Hao Pingguan was a person who had good eyesight, of course he wouldn't think that the Prince had taken a fancy to the Yang Liniang, and had more beautiful girls than her. Because he hadn't gone to save the wangfei last time, the prince felt apologetic, so he tried to find a way to make amends.
It was not a good thing for her to apologize to the daughter of her enemy. Hao Pingguan did not dare to think about what would happen in the future, after all, the Royal Concubine had an important position in his heart now.
"Your Highness, do you want Lv He to bathe you in water?"
Morong Gan did not say anything, but paced around the room a few times, as if he had just thought of something, "You said just now that Princess Hua-Yang is willing to do anything?"
"That's right. It's only right and proper to do some work for the princess. She'll be happy when she does it!"
"Then tell her to wait for This King to bathe."
Hao Pingguan was startled: "Ah?" He then recovered his wits and said, "Ah, yes, your servant will go and invite the wangfei now." He bowed and left with a smile on his face like a flower. If the king could really untie the knot in his heart and have a good relationship with his wife, he would have to face the late emperor in the future.
Bai Qianfan was turning her shoes outside, Xiao Huang was walking around the shoes, and would occasionally peck them. She waved her hand to drive them away: "Are you an idiot, why are you peck at my shoes all the time, there aren't any grains of rice on top of them."
Yang Liniang stood at the kitchen door and shouted, "Royal Concubine, there's no firewood left."
Lv He spoke rudely, "What is there to ask for a wangfei for without firewood? Are there so many little girls that Miss Yang can't order around for?"
The Yang Liniang gave an awkward laugh. "I thought you would like to work."
Lv He harrumphed, "In the Huailin Pavilion, no one dares to ask the wangfei to do anything."
Just as she finished speaking, she heard Hao Pingguan's voice. "Princess, quickly go and prepare the water to bathe the Marquis."
Lv He's mouth was still open, but when she looked outside in surprise, the Yang Liniang secretly curled her lips. Don't take her for a fool, who said that no one would dare ask their wangfei to do something?
Bai Qianfan was also surprised, she pointed at the tip of her nose and asked, "You want me to go?"
"That's right," Hao Pingguan said with a face full of smiles and made a inviting gesture, "Please, Your Highness is waiting for you."
Although Bai Qianfan was still a little unenlightened, she more or less understood a little about the affairs of men and women. Her face became slightly red, "Head Steward, just let Big Sister Lv He go, it's not convenient for me."
"What are you saying, consort?" Hao Pingguan tried to console her. "The consort and the prince are husband and wife.
Bai Qianfan had no choice but to follow him in his shoes. When they reached Horn Chamber, he first washed the wooden barrel once, the thick and big wooden barrel was almost as tall as her, and Bai Qianfan bent her waist as she was unable to reach the inside, but luckily her body was light as she laid on the bathtub, her hand grabbing onto the edge of the bucket, her entire body leaning on it.
There was a layer of water at the bottom of the vat that was specially used to wash the vat. Bai Qianfan used an oily brush to carefully brush the water, her thin mane rubbing against the wall of the vat, making sizzling sounds.
When Morong Gan came in, he only saw half of her body exposed, with a little butt poking out of the barrel. Following her movements, he swayed a little, which was extremely comical.
He lowered his footsteps and walked over quietly. Suddenly, he shouted, "What are you doing?"
Bai Qianfan was shocked. She loosened her hand and the oil brush fell to the ground as she reached out to pick it up.
Morong Gan hurriedly lifted her up. The poor guy's head was drenched, and when he was grabbed, he looked confused. He coughed and shook his head, and water droplets started to drip from his head.
Morong Gan thought that she would blame him, but he caught her breath, grabbed his arm and smiled, "Your Highness saved my life."
His wet hair stuck to his face, and his crooked hair bun became even more deformed. His entire body drooped down, and his eyes were just washed with water. He was probably scared stiff. His face was completely pale, but he still forced a smile to thank him.
Morong Gan originally wanted to laugh out loud, but his guilty conscience spouted out, causing him to feel weird. He held her hand and walked out, saying impatiently, "You can't even do a little bit of things, what can you do?"
Bai Qianfan replied in a low voice, "I was too serious when it came to my work, and because the Prince's voice was too loud, I was startled."
"So you're saying that it's This King's, no?"
"I don't blame Your Highness. Your Highness saved me, so I have to think of a way to repay Your Highness."
Morong Gan was silent for a moment, "Forget it, I didn't save you last time. "This time, I've made up for it."
Bai Qianfan giggled, "Your Highness, don't blame yourself for what happened last time. What I met was a good thief, even if you capture me, you didn't treat me unfairly.
"What happened to the wound on your leg?"
"I can't stay on the mountain anymore, they can't afford to keep me, so I can only walk by myself. On the way, I met Nine governor Du Changfeng and he brought me back, I didn't ride a horse, and with the bumpiness of the mountain road, I became like that."
"What's he doing there?"
Bai Qianfan pursed her lips, "You have to promise me not to be angry, and not punish anyone before I say it."
"I promise, go ahead."
"It was Guard Jia who begged him to find me."
"Did you bring a sedan chair when I came to look for you?"
"He probably wanted to try his luck too, so he brought a horse with him."
"A horse?" Morong Gan stopped in his tracks, lowered his head, and looked at her, "Two people riding one horse?"
"Yeah, it's more than 20 miles away. Otherwise, would we be able to walk back?" she asked.
Morong Gan released her hand and quickened his pace, calling Lv He from afar: "Bring Princess Wangfei to change clothes!"
Hearing that his tone was not so good, Lv He quickly replied and ran over to welcome him. Seeing the dripping droplets on her head, she was startled, "What happened to Princess Huo Wu?"
Bai Qianfan laughed embarrassedly: Nothing, I accidentally dropped it in the bathtub.
