On the other side, Mrs. Han ordered the housekeeper to prepare a room for the guests, but she was a little worried on the way back to the room.
When she returned to her yard, the girl helped her sit down and then said, "What's wrong, madam? Are you in a bad mood?"
Han raised his head and glanced at her and said, "That Miss Gu... doesn't look like an ordinary person."
The girl smiled and said: "The Gu family in Dongzhou is extremely wealthy. Their young lady is certainly not an ordinary person, not to mention she has a cousin like General Jiang."
"Yes." Han nodded.
She knew that although Jiang Yan was slightly lower than the Marquis in terms of rank and did not have a title, Jiang Yan was also much younger than Jiang Guanmu, and the Zhenguo Army was a close confidant of the Regent. Such a young man
He is talented and his background is not bad either.
The girl looked at Han's expression and knew what she was thinking.
Han's family background was not good. If he hadn't been lucky enough to be favored by Marquis Yueyang, he might have married a rough man who had to do housework all day long and was tortured by life, or he might have been tortured in the backyard of some house.
And because Marquis Yueyang had a royal wife in Shangyong, Han had always been worried about her.
I don't like to go out to socialize very much on weekdays, and I stay away from the noble ladies in Yanzhou's officialdom.
When she first entered the General's Mansion, she was not as good as she is now. She once offended the daughter of the Governor of Yanzhou's family because of her jealousy. If Jiang Guanmu hadn't come to apologize in person, and the Governor of Yanzhou was afraid of his status as a marquis, she might not have been so easy to forgive.
Han didn't think she was wrong, she just felt that those people looked down on her origin and bullied her, and they were always afraid that those high-status women would steal her favor.
But she forgot that not to mention a noble lady from a famous family, even an ordinary Xiaojiabiyu would not come to compete with her for the position of a nameless concubine.
Most of those who really end up in this situation are desperate or helpless.
Although Han regarded herself as his wife in the General's Mansion, she did not even have the status of a concubine in the Yong Yueyang Marquis Mansion.
Jiang Guanmu never told his parents and wife at home that he had taken the Han family as his concubine in Yanzhou and gave birth to a pair of children. Therefore, not only the Han family, but also the two children are now without status.
No one knows why Jiang Guanmu is like this.
After all, he really loved Mrs. Han very much, and he had always held her in his hands and doted on her all these years, for fear that she would be wronged.
But she refused to tell her family and give her a formal identity.
People around Han are often worried about her, but Han herself doesn't care.
She knew that her status was low, and it was impossible for Jiang Guanmu to divorce his current wife and marry her. In this case, she would rather stay in Yanzhou like this. If she could stay with her husband in Yanzhou for the rest of her life, then Yueyang of Shangyong
Mrs. Hou is just a decoration.
Han was conceited about her beauty, and today she suddenly saw Luo Junyao, a young, beautiful and noble girl, and suddenly felt uneasy and worried in her heart.
That girl has been waiting by Han's side all year round, how could she not know what she was thinking?
Seeing this, he smiled and said: "Madam, why should you care about her? We are just taking care of her for General Jiang's sake. If she knows the rules, everyone will be fine. If there is anything... General Jiang will handle it."
Han nodded, feeling a little uncomfortable after all.
The girl rolled her eyes and said, "Madam, please excuse me for talking too much. The most important thing right now is not Miss Gu, but the war in front of you."
Han was startled and said: "I am a woman, how can I know anything about war? Naturally, everything is subject to the arrangements of the Marquis."
The girl said: "That's not what I mean. How can those little Gaoyu people withstand our mighty heavenly army? It won't be long before the reinforcements from the imperial court arrive, and they will be able to defeat those people. By then... wait for Yan
The war in the state is over, and I am afraid that the Marquis will have to return to Beijing."
Han said quietly: "The Marquis told me before that if nothing happens, I should go back at the end of this year." This also made Han very worried. She didn't want to go to Shangyong, and she didn't want Jiang Guanmu to go back.
Can't they just stay in Yanzhou and live a good life as a family of four?
"Madam, you don't want to go back?"
Han said: "Do you want to go back and make a fool of yourself?"
The girl said: "Madam, you can't think like that. Even if the madam doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about the young master and the young lady. Madam, if you don't formally enter the house, the young master and the young lady will not have a serious identity. If in the future, the marquis
…The title and family property of the Yueyang Marquis Mansion belong to Shang Yong. Didn’t the Marquis also say that the young master is now His Majesty’s companion?”
Hearing her talk about this, Han's face became even more miserable.
The girl couldn't help but feel a trace of impatience flashing in her eyes when she saw that she couldn't hold up the wall with mud.
"What do you mean by these...?" Han asked.
The girl looked around and lowered her voice and said: "The Marquis has never told the capital about this, probably because of his wife's status. If you are... an ordinary girl, even a country girl is fine. It's a pity..."
Han's face was pale. Although she was born in Yanzhou, her grandfather was convicted of a serious crime and was sent to Yanzhou by the whole family. Therefore, her identity was that of a sinner.
It was Jiang Guanmu who encountered her being bullied when he was inspecting the border. He took her back because he felt sorry for her.
If ordinary people take concubines, although it doesn't sound good, they probably won't take it too seriously. But Jiang Guanmu has a title, and with her status, she can only be a concubine at best.
In Yanzhou, everyone can pretend not to know for the sake of Jiang Guanmu, but the Yueyang Marquis Mansion is difficult to pass.
"If Madam can help the Marquis make a great contribution, the Marquis can naturally write to the court and request the court to erase your original criminal record, and even the Madam, the young master and the young lady can walk through the gate of Yueyang Marquis Mansion openly."
Han's heart moved, but she felt more helpless and disappointed, "Making meritorious service? How can it be so easy as you said? What can I, a weak woman, do?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The girl was silent for a moment, and then said: "Even if you can't make any meritorious service, madam, you can do more things to make people see that you want to stand with the Marquis.
It will live and die with Jianling City."
"How to do it?" Han was a little excited, but didn't know where to start.
The girl leaned over and whispered a few words into her ear. Mr. Han sometimes shook his head and sometimes nodded in response, listening very seriously.
"Miss."
Luo Junyao was lying on the table carelessly, playing with the brush in his hand, and his shadow came in from outside and said respectfully.
"What's the matter?" Luo Junyao raised his eyes and asked.
Duoying put a piece of paper with handwriting in front of Luo Junyao. Luo Junyao glanced at it and the carelessness on his face immediately disappeared. He jumped up from the table and said, "Is there news so soon?"
Duoying smiled and said, "He Ruomudi must be in a hurry too."
Although the reinforcements were blocked at Pingshan Fort, He Ruomuti could not have known that Dasheng would soon have reinforcements arriving. If the Gaoyu people could not capture Jianling City before the reinforcements arrived, the situation would probably be terrible.
It won't look too good.
"Is Jiang Yan back?" Luo Junyao asked as he put away the letter.
The overlapping shadow said: "The Gaoyu people did not attack the city last night. General Jiang is on the tower at the moment."
Luo Junyao thought for a moment and said, "Let's go over and have a look too."
When the two of them left the yard and walked to the gate, they saw Mr. Han and others walking out, as if they were getting ready to go out.
Seeing the two of them, Han frowned slightly and asked with a smile: "Are you two going out?"
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Some things were left where I lived before. Madam, are you going out now?"
Han lowered his eyes shyly and said: "The soldiers have been working very hard to defend the city these days. I ordered people to boil some decoction for the cold weather and am preparing to take them there."
Luo Junyao smiled, "I see, Madam is interested."
"Where." Mrs. Han said softly: "The Marquis is dedicated to defending the city. As a woman in a boudoir, I have no power, so I can only do some small things within my power."
Luo Junyao said: "Madam has done a good job, but I... can't help you. If Madam doesn't mind, I will go over and help later."
Naturally, Mrs. Han didn't want Luo Jun to go away, so she quickly declined.
Luo Junyao didn't care. He exchanged a few words with Mr. Han and then went out with his shadow.
After leaving the General's Mansion, the two of them stopped at the corner of the street. Not far away, they saw Han taking the servants of the General's Mansion as they headed toward the city tower.
Luo Junyao asked: "Is it the girl next to Han?"
Duoying was startled and said: "How could the princess know?"
Luo Junyao said: "I asked around and found out that that girl has been very anonymous to General Jiang for several years. But she didn't feel like her yesterday. If it weren't for her unremarkable appearance and ordinary clothes, I would have doubted her.
He is the master."
Duiying said: "The news was indeed sent from Han's courtyard."
"What do they want to do?" Luo Junyao asked.
Duiying said: "What we intercepted is a secret message. If we can't decipher it in a short period of time, it will scare the enemy, so we have to let it go. The Gaoyu Camp will try to find out, but it's hard to say whether they can find out."
Luo Junyao said: "Then don't worry about it for now. Let people keep an eye on Han's master and servant. Also... pay attention to the safety of Jiang Guanmu and Jiang Yan."
"The princess suspects that the other party will assassinate the general?"
Luo Jun said: "If you shoot a man first, shoot a horse first, and to capture a thief first capture the king. If something happens to Jiang Guanmu and Jiang Yan, given the current situation in Jianling City, maybe..."
Luo Junyao suddenly paused, thoughtfully.
"princess?"
Luo Junyao suddenly smiled and said, "I suddenly thought of a good idea?"
"What's the idea?" Could it be that the princess wanted to assassinate He Ruomuti?
Luo Junyao smiled and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, it's not dangerous."
I hope not.
Jiang Yan was not surprised to see Luo Junyao and Duoying on the tower. Although they had only known each other for a day, Jiang Yan felt that he already had some understanding of what kind of person the regent princess was.
But he was more curious about how the two of them came up above board.
Seeing the confusion in his eyes, Luo Junyao confidently pointed to the Han family and others who were busy not far away and smiled: "I told the people below that I was your cousin and came to help Mrs. Han, and they let us up.
Already."
Jiang Yan was speechless. The people guarding below obviously lacked lessons. She just said so?
But it was probably so smooth because of the princess's sweet and innocent face.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Yan asked.
If nothing happened, these two people wouldn't come here.
Luo Junyao gestured to Duoying, grabbed Jiang Yan and walked towards the corner.
Jiang Guanmu, who was talking to Han not far away, also noticed what was going on here, and frowned slightly, with a trace of doubt on his face.
He knew that Jiang Yan's cousin lived in the house, but he did not see Luo Junyao that day because of the many military affairs.
At this time, when I saw Jiang Yan being dragged away by a little girl, I knew that the girl should be Jiang Yan's cousin.
But, how come it’s such a coincidence that Jiang Yan’s cousin happens to be in Jianling City?
"What is the Marquis looking at?" Seeing that he was distracted, Mrs. Han asked softly.
Jiang Guanmu asked: "General Jiang's cousin, what do you think?"
Han was startled when he heard this. He followed his gaze and saw the backs of Luo Junyao and Jiang Yan.
Mrs. Han bit her lips lightly and said, "Miss Gu comes from a famous family. She is as beautiful as a flower and has a smart and lovely temperament. Would you like to go over and have a look, Mr. Hou?"
Jiang Guanmu did not hear the sourness in Han's tone, shook his head and said: "Forget it, I must have something to come here to see General Jiang. It's not too late to see you again when I go back home."
Han nodded and said with a smile: "That's fine, Mr. Hou is busy, let's go back first."
Jiang Guanmu nodded, looking at her with gentle eyes, "Xi'er, thank you for your hard work."
"It's all what I should do. Why is it hard?" Han said softly.
On the other side, Jiang Yan looked at Luo Junyao with some embarrassment, "It's a good idea, but is it too risky at this time?"
Luo Junyao said: "Then do you want to catch Xizuo? Do you want to take the opportunity to teach He Ruomu a lesson?"
Jiang Yan frowned and said, "Reinforcements will arrive in two days. Is it better not to take the risk? Why not wait until the reinforcements arrive?"
Luo Jun raised his eyebrows and said, "Can you still last two days?"
Jiang Yan sighed softly and said: "Just do your best." The Gaoyu people's ability to attack the city should not be underestimated. The pressure on Jianling City has been really great these days. If he hadn't received the exact news of reinforcements, he would have
I'm afraid I might feel a little uneasy for a while.
Luo Junyao said: "Since the attack in the early hours of yesterday morning, the Gaoyu people have not taken any action. It is impossible for He Ruomuti to make small troubles one after another and waste his own morale. If he attacks with all his strength next time, you will be very
Is it hard to hold on? In addition...even if you are not in a hurry, isn't he also in a hurry? If it weren't for Xi Zuo rushing to send the news last night, we would not have discovered it. Mrs. Han had not been here in the past few days.
Bian? What do you think the person behind you wants to do?"
Jiang Yan also knew that what she said made sense, but...
"Over there with Marquis Yueyang..." It was useless for him to agree to this matter. The key was to have Marquis Yueyang's cooperation.
Luo Junyao blinked his eyes, looked at him with a smile and said: "Marquis Yueyang, I have to trouble General Jiang."
Jiang Yan smiled helplessly, nodded and said, "I'll do my best."
