Li Xiang and Li Ban were also very anxious, so they didn't sleep much all night. They both had dark circles under their eyes when they woke up early in the morning. When they looked at Princess Hongnong with a solemn face and Fu Xuan with a relaxed face, they saw
They looked at each other silently and then turned away.
The inn was not very far from the city gate. Although their team was long, it only took them an hour to travel.
They set out at midnight, and soon they saw the gate of Luoyang City.
The city gate of Luoyang was very busy early in the morning. People queuing up to enter the city were divided into two rows. One row was for the team entering the city in simple packaging without goods, and the other was for the caravan with goods, which was queued up a hundred meters away.
Li Xiang and Li Ban looked at it blankly. Due to constant small battles, Shu was rarely so lively.
They had always been proud of being Chengguo people, because they knew that although Shu was not yet unified, it was still much better than the outside world.
If the people in Shu are living in dire straits, then the people outside Shu are in purgatory.
They wanted the people of Shu to get out of dire straits, and they felt that they had achieved some success, so compared with the kings and ministers of the Jin Dynasty, they were proud.
But now looking at the shabby but vibrant Luoyang City, looking across those smiling faces, Li Xiang and Li Ban had doubts about their previous knowledge.
Doesn't it mean that the lives of people outside are like grass and grass, and the Jin Dynasty is not a human being, allowing the Xiongnu and Jiehu to massacre and plunder the Han people?
Isn’t it said that there are thousands of miles of bare wilderness outside, and the food shortage is like a desert?
It doesn’t look like it no matter how you look at it?
"Your Highness, the general of Jinting came to greet the envoy in person."
Li Ban came to his senses and looked forward.
A road had been separated by guards in front of them. At the end of the road stood a group of people. Among them was an elegant woman with one hand on her hips and a smile on her face.
Ban Li didn't know why he thought she was elegant, because her movements were not elegant. How could any woman stand with one hand on her hip like this?
But he just felt that her whole body exuded an elegant atmosphere.
Li Ban liked elegant people, so he also smiled, dismounted from his horse when he was still far away, and led Li Xiang quickly forward to pay his respects.
In the carriage behind them, Princess Hongnong also opened the curtain and was staring blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar city of Luoyang.
The sound of Li Ban dismounting startled her, and she looked forward involuntarily, and caught a glimpse of Zhao Hanzhang.
She then saw Zhao Hanzhang smiling, putting down his hands on his hips, taking two steps forward to meet Li Ban, extending his hand to support him while he was saluting, and then immediately stepped back and bowed solemnly in return.
Princess Hongnong stared blankly, and sure enough, seeing her treating him so politely, Li Ban started talking to him with tears in his eyes, and Li Xiang's face looked much better.
She had seen many powerful ministers who controlled the court officials. She had personally experienced the Eight Kings Rebellion and the Six Kings. Later, when the King of Donghai invaded Luoyang, she had already avoided Luoyang and could not be involved for the time being.
But she had also heard about his arrogant and domineering deeds. No powerful official would be as humble and polite as Zhao Hanzhang.
If there was, I'm afraid this world would no longer belong to the Jin Dynasty.
so……
Princess Hongnong looked at Zhao Hanzhang intently.
Zhao Hanzhang seemed to be aware of her gaze, and glanced here, his eyes gentle and tolerant. When he met her gaze, he smiled brightly, then said something to Li Ban, turned around, picked up a young man and came to her.
Princess Hongnong watched Zhao Hanzhang approach step by step, and then her eyes fell on the young man she was holding.
Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar face, Princess Hongnong was slightly startled. Is this... a long face?
Zhao Hanzhang took Fu Tinghan to the carriage, smiled and saluted the carriage, "Princess Hongnong, the consort, Chen and Tinghan are here to greet you."
Ren Hui, the female envoy beside Princess Hongnong, quickly opened the curtain, smiled at Zhao Hanzhang and looked inside the car.
Princess Hongnong then held Ren Hui's hand and walked out of the carriage with her head lowered. She raised her eyes and looked condescendingly at Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan.
Her son's face was tense. He didn't know whether he was still angry with them or nervous. However, Zhao Hanzhang smiled and was not flustered by her silence. He even stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help her on the other side.
.
Ren Hui raised her heart, fearing that Princess Hongnong would cause trouble if she rejected her, but Princess Hongnong naturally put her hand on hers and helped her get out of the carriage.
She said: "The prince-in-law is in the back."
Fu Xuan was not a pretentious person. When he heard the voices of Zhao Hanzhang and others, he woke up from his sleep, opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.
Suddenly seeing his son who had grown into a young man, Fu Xuan was stunned for a moment. In total, they had not seen each other for five years.
Is there such a big change in five years?
Zhao Hanzhang stepped forward to greet him and gave Fu Tinghan a hand.
Fu Tinghan saluted beside her, not like Zhao Hanzhang meeting his parents, but like he meeting Zhao Hanzhang's parents.
Of course, state affairs and private affairs are still important. Zhao Hanzhang knows the importance, so she wants to meet with Li Ban and Li Xiang first.
But she was also worried about Fu Tinghan, so she asked him: "Do you want to go with me?"
After she has finished handling the state affairs, she will bring him back to see Princess Hongnong and Fu Xuan.
She also saw that Fu Tinghan was uncomfortable facing the couple, and the atmosphere between Princess Hongnong and Fu Xuan was also a bit strange.
Fu Tinghan glanced at his parents and shook his head, "No, I'll take them back to Fu's house."
Zhao Hanzhang looked at him, "Can you do it alone?"
Fu Tinghan nodded, "Don't worry, I won't even have the courage to face it alone."
But in fact, he was really nervous when facing the two of them alone. He sent people back to Fu's house, asked people to go down to prepare food, and then sat nervously opposite them, speechless.
Both he and Zhao Hanzhang have determined that they cannot go back. Even if they can go back, they will not be able to leave everything here and go back.
So he is destined to occupy this body.
Unlike Zhao Hanzhang, who always has goals and pays for the Zhao family, Fu Tinghan's connection with the Fu family is very weak.
Before Fu Xuan and his wife showed up, his only connection with the Fu family was Fu Zhi.
He felt that he had only accepted Fu Zhi's kindness, and naturally he would only repay Fu Zhi.
But now that Fu Xuan and his wife were sitting in front of him, he realized that even if he had no contact with them after coming to this world, he would still owe them.
I don’t know if that young man died in front of Luoyang City five years ago, or if he went to his world?
No matter what the situation was, he was alive now through his body, and thus accomplished many things he wanted to do. He was also grateful to him for being able to be with Zhao Hanzhang.
Princess Hongnong looked at him carefully and said after a moment: "You are more docile than you were five years ago. Is this sensible?"
Fu Tinghan looked up at her in surprise.
Fu Xuan frowned slightly and asked Fu Tinghan: "When is your wedding date?"
Fu Tinghan said: "My grandfather chose a day, the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, and said that this day matched our zodiac signs."
Fu Xuan nodded slightly and asked: "How are the wedding preparations going? How much is the betrothal gift? Do we need to buy some more?"
