Seeing figures gathering at the entrance of Shuyue Pavilion from afar, Lu Yao stepped back to the shadow of the corridor and said to Zhang Junjie, "Let's go back."
On the way back, Zhang Junjie muttered, "Hengyang's women are too unreasonable. It's so late now that they're just coming home."
"It's just past seven o'clock and it's just getting dark." Lu Yao, who was walking in front, said without turning his head.
"Lu Yao, do you have any heart? Who am I standing up for?" Zhang Junjie called him by his name in hatred.
Anyway, as you said, there are cameras everywhere in the public areas of the Princess' Mansion, so it's better not to call him general.
"Just call me Langjun like Pinghao." After giving this instruction, Lu Yao continued the previous topic and asked, "Isn't your mother worried when your father doesn't come home at night?"
"I am worried, but my mother is mainly worried that he will gamble and get into debt." Although he said this, Zhang Junjie still scratched his head and said, "I understand what you mean."
As he spoke, he seemed to be eager to make a move: "Speaking of which, Hengyang is indeed much more peaceful than our Jinglong. And relatively speaking, the men here have more freedom than the women over there. I heard that there is a food court here, and there is a night market every night. Do you want to go there together?"
In Jingheng, you will hardly see women walking alone outside after dark; usually they are accompanied by men.
"I don't want to go, mainly because I don't want to go with you." Lu Yao said in a flat tone.
"You!" Zhang Junjie snorted and said, "I'll ask Ping Hao to go with me."
"Have you forgotten that Yuwen Guaizhang is still lurking outside?" Lu Yao reminded.
Zhang Junjie paused, "Ah..." He really forgot.
It’s because life in the Princess’s Mansion is so comfortable.
Lu Yao glanced back at him and said, "If we want to go out now, we can only go with Ge Fu."
Zhang Junjie's eyes widened, "In other words, we are now like Jinglong's women, unable to go out without someone to accompany us?" No, they may be even worse off. At least Jinglong's women can still go out during the day, but they... can't even go out alone during the day.
Lu Yao frowned. Who did Yuwen Guaizhang collude with?
Are the Hengyang officials so unscrupulous that they actually cooperate with Jinglong's warlords? Isn't Yuwen Guaizhang afraid that the other party will turn against him? Or has the official never thought of catching all of Yuwen Guaizhang's people in one fell swoop?
Besides, even if the Hengyang authorities wanted to arrest them, but... why is Yuwen Guaizhang still at large?
Is it true that Jiang Yongjie’s connections in Hengyang are so strong?
Early in the morning, Ge Fu was still dating Zhou Gong. You Rong rushed in and said to You Niang, who was ironing and arranging the dress sent from the laundry room, "Oh no, Prince Edmund is here!"
As she said this, she was about to rush into the inner room.
"What are you doing?" You Niang stopped her.
"I'll tell the princess to get up!" You Rong said with her eyes wide open, "Can we get rid of a man of Prince Edmund's status with just a few words?" So of course she had to tell the princess to get up and deal with it.
"Are you stupid?" You Niang glared at her, "Come with me."
With Prince Edmund's status, it was impossible for Guan Niang to stop him outside the door, so he had already been welcomed into Yan Hall.
Before You Niang came, Edmund had already looked around Yan Tang from top to bottom. It must be said that the decoration of Hengyang County Princess's Mansion was very aesthetic. Even though the decoration style of Yan Tang was not what he liked, he could not find any shortcomings.
But it's normal. As a painter who has already gained a certain degree of fame internationally, it is reasonable for Ge Fu to have such a high level of aesthetics.
Thinking of this, his mood couldn't help but improve.
As the prince of Grand, he had no requirements for his wife's career. Even if she did nothing, he could afford to support her. It was not difficult for them to become philanthropists. But Gofu's career was undoubtedly very suitable for her to be his wife. It was both decent and respected.
"Prince Edmund." Before entering the door, You Niang had already bowed slightly.
"Who are you?" Edmund asked in confusion.
"I'm the steward of the Princess's Mansion." Because Edmund was not from Hengyang, You Niang used a way of introduction that he could understand.
"Hello, hello." Although he said this, Edmund's expression became casual.
——Before seeing You Niang dressed elegantly, he thought she was Ge Fu's elder. After all, although he heard that her parents had passed away, he didn't know the situation of other relatives. Now that he knew she was just a housekeeper, he naturally relaxed.
"That's right." You Niang saw his behavior and smiled slightly, "According to the rules, our princess should personally entertain you when you visit. But our princess was painting until very late yesterday, and we really couldn't bear to wake her up. You know, our princess just had a serious operation a few days ago, so we can't help but feel a little more distressed."
This means that if Edmund insists on meeting Goforth, he would be showing no concern for others.
Even though Edmund came from a foreign country, he was still choked by the art of language.
As soon as he left, You Rong was surprised and surprised and asked, "Mom, how dare you talk to Prince Edmund like that? Aren't you afraid that he will make things difficult for you later?"
"You don't understand. Foreign men are different from our Hengyang men." You Niang said as she put away the teacups, "Most of our Hengyang men don't have careers, and their lives revolve around women. Over time, their hearts become small, and they remember every little thing, so don't offend them easily. But foreign men...you have to treat them as Hengyang women, and be more open-minded."
"Besides, people in Grand Country are very particular about being a gentleman. A gentleman would never enter a lady's bedroom without permission."
"We men in Hengyang don't have such concerns."
You Rong suddenly realized something.
——In the eyes of Prince Edmund, his princess was not equal to him. Just like the women of Hengyang looked at men, he thought that he should be the dominant one between him and the princess.
Thinking of this, You Rong's expression instantly twisted.
What a person! His assets may not even be as much as our princess's, yet he dares to look down on me like this.
She pursed her lips.
It would be great if my princess was the emperor.
Or, even if he was not the emperor, but an emotional consultant like the late Duke, he would not be so passive now.
When Goforth woke up and was told of Edmund's visit, his expression did not change at all. He just said, "Next time Prince Edmund comes, tell him I'm not here."
"Princess?" You Rong was a little surprised.
Isn’t this too rude?
Gofu said calmly, "Edmund is from Gran. According to their country's view, if a man goes to see a woman and the woman comes out to entertain him politely every time, it means that she has a good impression of the man."
