C369 He should want to see me now

On the way back, Morong Gan's expression seemed much calmer than before. He urged his horse to walk leisurely on the mountain road, and thought of the time he brought Bai Qianfan here.

It was a fine day, and they were sitting on the grass, eating snacks and drinking tea. The thin sunlight shone on her face, and her dark eyes shone with golden light as she gave him a silly smile with her waxy white teeth.

When they lay side by side in the sun and she fell asleep, he dared to take her in his arms. What was he thinking at that moment?

He wanted to hug her and sleep together with Tian Tian Tian, but he found out later on that his thoughts were too simple. The little girl walked further and further on the path of big brother and sister, he spent a lot of effort to get her over here, thinking that he could live a happy life from now on.

Just as he was lost in thought, Ning Jiu came forward and asked, "Your Highness, may I take a trip to the villa?"

He harrumphed. "They've all left. What are they going to do?"

Ning Jiu's face was filled with righteousness, "Princess Hua-Yang is the official wife of the Duke, it is not proper for his to leave like this. I plead the Duke to give the order, this subordinate will definitely bring the Duke back."

Morong Gan was quiet for a moment, then continued, "There's no need to capture her, go and check it is good as well, see if she has escaped with his life, just come back quickly, it's fine as long as you know what's good for his, after all, proper matters are more important."

Jia Tong was confused listening at the side. Capturing an imperial concubine was not even a proper matter, what was a proper matter?

Ning Jiu agreed and turned his horse to head back to the direction of the manor. Jia Tong carefully looked at Morong Gan, "My prince, are you serious?

"Why did you call her back?"

Jia Tong felt wronged for Bai Qianfan. "Esteemed wangfei, she hurt my feelings, so it's understandable that she would change her mind. After all, your highness, you …"

Before he finished speaking, Morong Gan's sharp eyes looked over, and he immediately closed his mouth.

After returning to the residence, Huangfu Zhuer received the letter and directly went to the second door to welcome him. She had an anxious expression on her face as she said, "Third Brother, are you alright? "I'm so worried."

"I'm fine," he said, throwing the reins to the valet and striding in. "How have you been these days?"

"What's wrong with me? I'm just worried about you, Third Brother." Huangfu Zhuer said with reddened eyes: "I'm really worried that you won't be able to come out from the palace."

Morong Gan looked at her, "Why do you think that?"

"If the Emperor wants to make a move against you, how good of a chance would that be?" Huangfu Zhuer, in order to keep up with him, walked a bit anxiously, and even her words still had a chance to catch her breath, "If you don't come back, then the Head Steward won't be able to send a message through here. Tian'er will go to the palace gate to wait for you.

Morong Gan walked into the house. Seeing that he looked simple and unsophisticated, he immediately went to get some hot water to wash his face. Lv He then brought some tea over.

Morong Gan wiped his face, his gaze sweeping around, and the two servant girls tactfully retreated.

"Tomorrow at New Year's Eve, even though the empress is grieving for the new year, at least you and I should be able to get together and have a proper meal."

"Third Brother is right," Huangfu Zhuer thought it was strange. Although Hao Pingguan did not reveal anything about Bai Qianfan escaping, even Qi Hong did not know about it, but she did know. Seeing Morong Gan being so calm, she could not help but wonder, even if Morong Gan did not have a deep affection for him, how could she just let him escape like that? You don't want the face of a man?

"Knowing that Third Brother is out of the palace, I asked him to make the arrangements. Tomorrow, we'll have a proper meal together, but... "Esteemed wangfei …"

Morong Gan was drinking his tea with his head lowered, and when he heard his words, he looked up at her, "She is not here, so there is no need to prepare her position."

"Third Brother," she asked tentatively, "Are we really going to let her run away like this?"

"You've always hated her. It wouldn't be better if she left."

"What if the news were to spread, my Third Brother's face …." She harrumphed, "Third Brother, I said something that I shouldn't say. Maybe she did this on purpose because she wanted to embarrass Third Brother. One of Bai Rubing's old dogs is placed by the emperor's side, the other by your side. The two most powerful men in the world are both his son-in-law, and they have some affairs to attend to, which he was the first to know. If there was some sort of hidden trap, the emperor would have nothing to do with it, but Zhu'er is worried about the Third Brother. "

"Now that she's gone, you can rest assured."

"But if she were to speak carelessly outside, it would not be good for Third Brother."

"What do you mean?"

"Third Brother should capture her and keep her from talking from now on." After Huangfu Zhuer finished speaking, she stared intently into Morong Gan's eyes.

Unfortunately, there was no expression on Morong Gan's face, he only slowly put down the teacup, "Let's not talk about her. Zhu'er, tomorrow is a big day, since we're reunited, let's call for him."

Huangfu Zhuer's face instantly paled, "Third Brother..."

Morong Gan pursed his lips and laughed helplessly: "He asked you to come, and yet he is hiding behind, does he not want to see me?" After a pause, he said, "He should come out to see me. With the current situation, he should want to see me."

Huangfu Zhuer was still looking at him in shock, and only after a long while did she speak, "Third Brother, how did you know that he … "She didn't die?"

"I know he's not that easy to kill."

Huangfu Zhuer's face flushed. "Third Brother, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's really, really …"

"I understand, it's been so long, everyone has changed, I'm not the me from before, he's also not the him from before, it's right to be more careful. On the night of the seventh day of the seventh month, your target was not me, but Bai Qianfan, you guys want her life, right?"

Huangfu Zhuer looked at him in a daze, and only after a long while did she nod her head, "I can't hide anything from Third Brother, he was afraid that Third Brother wouldn't be able to kill him, so he wanted to help you, but who would have thought …"

"I didn't think I didn't want to kill her?"

"Yes, I can see that Third Brother really likes her a little. If I didn't come back, perhaps Third Brother and she would be happy together."

Morong Gan looked at her deeply, "Zhu'er, if the past had not happened, you and I, what would have happened to us?"

"I will marry the Third Brother, and we will live happily ever after."

Morong Gan looked out of the window. He had always thought that he was in love with Huangfu Zhuer, and that was why he did not want to get married, but after meeting him, he found out that it was not love, at most, it was just a type of natural love, and because they were familiar, and because he knew that she would be his wife in the future, he treated her differently.

If it hadn't been for the past and they hadn't met Bai Qianfan, he would have married Huangfu Zhuer and had one or two children with her. Then he would never know what it was like to really love someone.

The true love of a person, is that he sits here calm, but the heart is like frying worry!
