Luo Jingchen stood there for a long time before turning back. He still went back through the tunnel and returned to the East Palace. Without Cixuan around him, he suddenly felt that the East Palace was too empty, as if his heart had nowhere to rest.

At this time, it was starting to get light. After sitting quietly for a while, Luo Jingchen changed his clothes and entered the palace.

The secret guards who were watching outside the East Palace saw that the side door of the East Palace had finally opened. Everyone immediately cheered up, but only Luo Jingchen came out. The secret guards sent several people to follow him quietly, but Luo Jingchen didn't.

It was time to enter the palace. Outside the East Palace, the secret sentries took turns keeping an eye on her for a whole day, but found nothing. Could it be that the higher-ups had made a mistake and the Crown Princess did not plan to go to Lingzhou?

As for Su Cixuan and his party, the journey was non-stop, which was quite smooth. There were also some bandits who wanted to block the road and rob them, but before they could get close to Su Cixuan's carriage and horse, they were scared away by the secret guards in the dark.

Considering that Jinyu had just recovered and her heart was injured, Su Cixuan couldn't bear to rush in a hurry. When Shuangyue saw Cixuan caring so much for Jinyu, she felt moved in her heart.

After a long and tiring journey, they finally arrived in Lingzhou on the fourteenth day. The climate in Lingzhou was indeed much warmer than that in Beijing. In addition, they had traveled for more than ten days. It was already early February, and the borders of Lingzhou were already pink.

Willows are green and mountain flowers are blooming.

Looking at the mountain flowers all over the mountains and plains, she suddenly remembered what Luo Jingchen said to her before leaving, "The flowers on the road are blooming, and I will go home slowly." Su Cixuan's lips unconsciously raised a smile. For more than ten days, she had been thinking

Only she knew how much she missed him. After more than ten days of separation, she realized that he had already been engraved in her bones.

Moreover, the closer they are to Lingzhou, the farther they are from the capital. They are on their way now and know nothing about the news in the capital. Su Cixuan does not know what the situation in the capital is like now. She knows that he will be able to strategize and deal with everything well.

Okay, but I still can't help but feel worried.

Let us say that when Su Sixuan and others arrived at the gate of Lingzhou City, the soldiers guarding the city recognized Lu Yuanhang and immediately and respectfully allowed them to pass.

Entering Lingzhou City, the streets in the city are lively and bustling. There are various shops and stalls on both sides of the street, with a dazzling array of products. Far away from the capital, the folk customs are more open. There are girls shopping in twos and threes, dressed up, and young people are also in groups.

.Everywhere here reveals a simple and barbaric prosperity that is different from the capital city.

Since entering the city, Su Cixuan has been opening the corner of the curtain to look at the scenery of Lingzhou City. She sees the clothes that are different from those in the capital, and listens to the accent that is completely different from those in the capital. What she sees in the book is indeed not as deep into people's hearts as what she feels in reality.

But there are also some young men and girls who dress the same as those in the capital, and look like the children of officials.

There were also some people in the street who noticed Cixuan and his party. Their eyes were inquiring for a moment, but they quickly forgot about it and continued with their own affairs.

As the carriage rolled forward, Su Cixuan had a premonition that Prince Ling's Mansion was getting closer and closer. For some reason, her heart began to become inexplicably nervous. The nervous and complicated mood became stronger and stronger, making her no longer interested in looking at the street scenery.

Jin Yu was sensitive to her nervousness, reached out to hold Su Cixuan's hand, and gave her a comforting look.

Su Cixuan looked at Jinyu and smiled, but the tension in her heart was still strong.

Suddenly, I heard a "hush" sound outside, the carriage stopped, and then I heard Lu Yuanhang respectfully report: "Princess, Prince Ling's Mansion has arrived."

Hearing the words "Prince Ling's Mansion has arrived," Su Cixuan couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat. Then she slowly calmed down and took a deep breath. Then she opened the corner of the curtain and looked out.

What catches the eye is the closed door. On the door are three large gold-inlaid characters "Ling Wang Mansion". There are two large stone lions standing on both sides of the door. They are so majestic that people can't help but feel awe.

There were four or five young men guarding the door, and they looked like they were all from the Lian family.

When the boy saw Lu Yuanhang, his eyes lit up, and he came up to him and said, "Lieutenant General Lu, you are back." Then he saw Su Cixuan standing on the front of the carriage, with two maids in costume standing beside her on the left and right.

The female envoy, although several people looked at it a little bit

She was exhausted from the journey, but her temperament was still natural. Moreover, the woman in the middle was even more otherworldly. Her eyebrows were somewhat similar to those of the princess and the young lady. The boy immediately guessed that the woman standing in the middle was the eldest daughter of Prince Ling.

The current Crown Princess.

Lu Yuanhang said to them first: "You haven't met the Crown Princess yet?"

"Small

I have met the Crown Princess." The servants were very smart and stepped forward to salute.

At this time, Su Cixuan's nervousness calmed down a lot, and she asked them to excuse themselves.

Two boys went in through the door on the right to report.

Not long after, the door of Prince Ling's Mansion slowly opened, and the servants and girls came forward to salute one after another. After that, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and the first one to run over was Su Chijin.

"Sister, you're finally here." Su Chijin almost ran over, with uncontrollable excitement and joy on her face. In the past two months, he has grown a lot taller, and his face has begun to form a boyish look.

contour.

"Xiaojin." Su Cixuan looked at Xiaojin who was running towards her. Her figure was almost blurred because she was running so fast. Her eyes couldn't help but smile.

Then, behind Su Chijin were her mother, Princess Ling, her brother Su Chijun, her sister-in-law Chen Shuting, and a charming and charming girl. This girl was Su Ciruo, Su Ciruo's sister whom Su Cixuan had not seen for nine years.

It can be seen that Princess Ling was very excited and surprised. She thought Su Cixuan would not come. When she was in the capital, she always felt that Cixuan was cold-hearted and cold-faced, and was not as considerate and sweet as her daughter Ciruo. The prince sent a letter to the capital

, mausoleum

The princess thought that due to Cixuan's temperament, she would definitely ignore it, but she didn't expect that she would come here after such a long journey, and she must not waste a moment. Seeing Su Cixuan at this time, Princess Ling's eyes could not help but be filled with tears of joy.

.

"The ministers pay homage to the Crown Princess." Princess Ling was the first to salute. Now their identities are different. Cixuan is the Crown Princess. They are monarchs and ministers first, and then their mother and daughter's family. After Princess Ling saluted, Su Cixuan's brother-in-law and sister also

He quickly followed and saluted. If you look carefully, you can see that when Su Ciruo bowed her head and saluted, she curled her lips slightly, a little unconvinced.

Su Cixuan hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out her hand to help Princess Ling, and said, "Mother, please excuse yourself quickly."

Princess Ling got up with the help of Cixuan's hand, then looked at her and said, "Xuan'er, you've had a hard time on the road, come in quickly." She was very happy now, and Cixuan was willing to come, which shows that she still values ​​kinship and family ties.

The prince's worries will be relieved. Maybe when the prince sees Cixuan, his worries will dissipate, and he may recover from his illness.

After all, Princess Ling still didn't love Cixuan enough. She only cared about happiness and that Cixuan's arrival could relieve her worries, but she didn't notice that Cixuan's face became thinner because of the rush, and she was pale and tired because she didn't have a good rest.

In comparison, Su Ciruoke was much more radiant and radiant.

After greeting each other, the group of people entered the mansion in a mighty manner, and the door of Prince Ling's Mansion was closed again behind them.
