Quick Wear: After Revenge, I and the Immortal King Renew Our Relationship
Chapter 16 The Beautiful Concubine 16
An Yan rarely slept in, but got on the carriage back to Qiao Mansion early.
Several carriages followed behind the car, led by Eunuch Wang, the most favored eunuch in front of Yuwen Yang. These were specially prepared by him to show his sincerity and as a reward for his favor.
Xia Lian and Xiao Ronzi served him personally.
Xia Lian was a child born at home. After entering the palace with An Yan, she never dreamed that she could go back home to see her family. Now that she has this opportunity, she is extremely excited.
Xiao Ronzi was different, her heart was full of anticipation.
When he saw An Yan frowning slightly, he knew that she didn't get enough rest last night, and he felt a little bitter.
The emperor has stayed in Chengqian Palace for three consecutive nights.
Not wanting to think too much, Xiao Ronzi knelt beside An Yan, placed his warm fingertips on her temples, and gently massaged them.
An Yan's expression moved slightly, but she quickly relaxed, smelling the familiar scent of flowers and falling asleep leaning against Xiao Rongzi.
Xia Lian stared wide-eyed silently, feeling that this was impolite, yet inexplicably harmonious.
If Xiao Rongzi wasn't a eunuch, they would seem like a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman. But they...
Xiao Ronzi naturally noticed her gaze. His eyes were no longer as gentle as when he looked at An Yan. Instead, he looked at Xia Lian with a cold warning. He raised a finger to his lips and silently said "Hush".
Xia Lian was startled and turned her head to look out the window guiltily.
An Yan was sleeping very comfortably. She sat up straight, and before opening her eyes, she clenched her fists and stretched her arms, but stopped halfway.
She pushed with her fist, but it was soft. Looking back, she saw Xiao Rongzi, whose neck was being pushed up and forced to tilt her head back.
An Yan pretended to be calm and withdrew her hand.
Xiao Rongzi felt itchy and a little hot wherever she touched.
The carriage stopped. Xia Lian took a quick glance before turning back with relief and saying excitedly, "Master, we're home!"
Xia Lian and Xiao Ronzi got off first, and then An Yan leisurely got off the carriage with Xiao Ronzi's hand.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine!" Mrs. Qiao led the Qiao family in paying their respects.
An Yan hurriedly supported Madam Qiao to stop her from kneeling, and said coquettishly, "Mom, are you trying to torture me?"
Mrs. Qiao held her hand tightly and smiled, "Etiquette cannot be abolished."
"Never mind. I'm the boss here, so you have to listen to me." The mother and daughter smiled at each other.
"Brother and sister-in-law, get up quickly! You all should get up too!" An Yan continued to help Qiao Anyuan and Liang Qing up.
"Sister!" Qiao Anyuan's face was full of surprise and he looked energetic, without any trace of the vicissitudes of life he had experienced in the past few days.
"Okay, let's go in and sit down and talk."
An Yan was welcomed into the house like a star, and had no choice but to sit at the top.
Xia Lian was instructed to take Eunuch Wang for tea and treat him well.
After exchanging pleasantries and playing with his nephew for a while, An Yan asked the imperial physician to check everyone's physical condition. After learning that there was nothing serious, An Yan rubbed his eyebrows.
Mrs. Qiao understood and said softly, "Yan'er, you must be tired. Your boudoir has been cleaned a long time ago. Go to sleep for a while. I'll call you after lunch."
An Yan smiled brightly, "Mother is still the best."
An Yan took Xiao Rongzi back to the courtyard where she lived before she got married.
Along the way, Xiao Ronzi tried her best not to look around, but her eyes were reluctant to miss any of the scenery.
An Yan smiled and said, "If you want to see it, just watch it openly."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xiao Rongzi's face. "I just want to see what kind of place raised such a perfect master."
"Then I'll give you a chance to take a good look. Just stand guard at the door!"
"Ah?" Xiao Ronzi felt like he had suffered a loss, but An Yan had already closed the door.
An Yan felt a little uneasy when she closed the door.
But when he turned around and saw the man standing there safely with a kind smile on his face, which looked ferocious, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat, "Daddy."
Qiao Hanzhou opened his arms, and An Yan rushed over, buried her head in his arms, trying hard to control her emotions.
The original body's emotions had such a huge impact that An Yan was no longer worried that General Qiao would recognize that she was not his daughter.
Qiao Hanzhou touched her hair and said, "You've grown up." His tone was filled with relief and heartache.
An Yan wiped her tears and then quietly stepped back. She asked worriedly, "I heard Daddy was injured? Is he okay now? I brought back a lot of herbs and supplements that Daddy can use."
She was worried, so she bought some fine medicine from the system and brought it back with her.
Qiao Hanzhou shook his head. "It's just a minor injury. I've recovered in the past few days since returning to Beijing."
Qiao Hanzhou went to Beijing with Xu Yong.
Not only did he eliminate the spies in the army and spread false information to Yuwen Yang, but after killing the prince of Luo State, he returned to the capital early just in case anything happened to the Qiao family.
On the way, we encountered eunuchs who were taking their time to announce the imperial edict. They like to procrastinate, right? Let them never reach the border.
After enduring for so many days, he finally found an opportunity to let Xu Yong pretend to have just arrived in the capital to report the news and slap Yuwen Yang in the face.
Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, it was still refreshing to hear it recounted.
All of these things were inseparable from An Yan's planning. Qiao Hanzhou was proud, but also felt distressed as he looked at his daughter who was forced to mature.
"As for you, you also suffered a lot since entering the palace. If you had married that kid from the Shen family..."
An Yan quickly interrupted him, "Dad, I'm doing well in the palace. The Queen Mother is kind, the sisters in the harem are harmonious, and I have full control over the palace. Except for Yu Wenyang who is a bit disgusting, everything else is fine."
Qiao Hanzhou sighed, "There's no need to only report good news and not bad news these days. Although your letter only emphasized the Qiao family's crisis, how could I not see your predicament?"
"So what's Daddy's plan?"
Qiao Hanzhou frowned. "The late emperor was tolerant, but the current emperor is not as good as the late emperor. It's a pity that the late emperor had few children, and he is the only one who grew up. Among the royal family..."
There was still no news about the whereabouts of the late Crown Prince. Even if there was, An Yan would not reveal it.
"Daddy!" An Yan suddenly shouted.
Qiao Hanzhou looked at her, and An Yan said leisurely, "Dad, have you ever thought about wearing the yellow robe and taking over?"
Qiao Hanzhou was stunned for a moment, "Ah, isn't that a plot to usurp the throne?"
An Yan said righteously, "It's a helpless self-protection when the family is exterminated."
He actually thought about it seriously for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "What I hate most in my life are those whining civil officials. Each of them has a hundred or eighty tricks up their sleeves. Facing them every day is enough to make me explode."
He waved his hands repeatedly, "I can't do it, I can't do it. I'd rather eat sand at the border than have to argue with them every day."
An Yan lowered her head. "But Daddy, if you support a member of the royal family to ascend to the throne, how can you be sure that he won't be an ungrateful person who will destroy the bridge after crossing it? The Qiao family has always been more powerful than the master."
Qiao Hanzhou sighed, his brow furrowed like a ravine, and sighed: "Is it so difficult to just live in peace and protect our country?"
An Yan showed a cunning smile, "Then why don't you do this..."
