There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 505 Ask more about her situation (one more)
She and this lady look so much alike.

But what's going on here?

"It turned out to be Xuan Delang and King Pu'an." Madam Hengyang walked up to them and nodded slightly with a smile, "Please get up, you don't have to be polite."

Zhao Cong and Zhao Gui leveled their bodies together.

"Isn't the Prince of Pu'an in Yuezhou? When will he return to Beijing?" Mrs. Hengyang smiled.

"I went back to Beijing yesterday." Zhao Cong said.

Mrs. Hengyang looked forward again, and her eyes fell on Li Jiaoniang's face.

She found that Li Jiaoniang was also looking at her.

Mrs. Hengyang opened her eyes wide and stayed there.

The two maids beside her also looked at Li Jiaoniang with ghostly expressions.

Seeing their expressions, Li Jiaoniang became more and more puzzled.

Could it be that they were also puzzled?

Her appearance is weirdly similar to this Mrs. Hengyang?

Mrs. Hengyang crossed Zhao Cong and Zhao Gui, walked up to Li Jiaoniang and stood still, and asked, "What's your name? Which house's lady are you from?"

Li Jiaoniang lowered her eyes slightly, and replied calmly, "My maiden name is Li, my husband's family name is Luo, and my girlfriend's name is Jiaoniang. I came from Yuezhou City. I am a distant relative of Mrs. Chu. I happened to meet Pu'an in Yuezhou City. The king of the county. He returned to Lin'an City and brought me and my wife to meet the world."

She concealed the matter of saving Zhao Cong.

I'm not familiar with this lady, so there's no need to go into such detail about my personal affairs.

Mrs. Hengyang narrowed her eyes, staring straight at Li Jiaoniang, "What did you just say? Your name is Li..."

"Li Jiaoniang." Li Jiaoniang replied.

"How old are you this year?"

"16 years old."

"Sixteen..., Li Jiao..." Mrs. Hengyang murmured, then glanced at Li Jiaoniang again, and walked over.

The two maids also glanced at Li Jiaoniang and left.

Zhao Cong turned his head to look at Mrs. Hengyang, then at Li Jiaoniang, his eyebrows frowned.

Not only he was puzzled in his heart, but several people present, Zhao Gui, Ji Chang, Hu Zi and Tian Niangzi were also surprised in their hearts.

Because Li Jiaoniang's appearance is too similar to Mrs. Hengyang.

In the past, Li Jiaoniang was dressed in ordinary clothes and saw her alone, so she didn't feel much like Mrs. Hengyang.

Right now, Li Jiaoniang is wearing a splendid dress, and she is standing with Mrs. Hengyang. The comparison between the two makes them look more and more alike.

"Let's go, the officials are still waiting." Although he was puzzled, but it was not the time to chat, Jichang thought of something serious and urged everyone to move on.

Everyone hid their doubts in their hearts and followed Jichang.

When they were far away, Mrs. Hengyang stopped and turned to look at Li Jiaoniang and her party.

"Ma'am, what are you looking at?" One of the servants with a round face asked doubtfully.

Mrs. Hengyang sighed, looked at the back of Li Jiaoniang who was walking away and said, "Yingniang, didn't you notice? The little lady just now looks very similar to Jiaojiao."

Yingniang nodded, "Ma'am, it's not just the resemblance, but the resemblance is too much. The name is also Jiao, and the age is the same. What a coincidence."

Another servant woman said, "Why such a coincidence."

Mrs. Hengyang's eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "Yingniang, I'll go back to the other courtyard to rest first, you wait for that lady Li here, after seeing her, please invite her to the other courtyard to talk."

Ying Niang replied "Yes".

Mrs. Hengyang glanced in the direction Li Jiaoniang was leaving, pursed her lips, and turned away with another maid.

……

Brothers Li Jiaoniang, Zhao Gui and Zhao Cong followed Jichang to a tall and magnificent palace.

On both sides of the tall palace gate stood palace guards with swords.

Near the door, there are two eunuchs standing on the left and right.

Ji Chang ran up the steps first, and said, "Hurry up and report that Xuan Delang and King Pu'an have arrived."

The servant standing on the left quickly ran in.

After a while, he ran out again, "The official said please go in and talk."

Going up the steps, Zhao Cong glanced at the door, and said to Li Jiaoniang, "Mother, you wait outside first, my elder brother and I will come out after we go in and talk, don't be afraid."

Li Jiaoniang is not afraid, what scene did she not see in her previous life?

She smiled and said, "Go, I'm not afraid."

Zhao Cong nodded, and together with Zhao Gui, followed Ji Chang into the hall.

Tian Niangzi was a maid taught by the palace. She knew the rules and couldn't follow in, so she stood upright at the bottom of the steps and waited.

Although Huzi knew the rules and had to stand upright, he couldn't control his curious eyes.

The feet are standing obediently, but the eyes are turning around to look.

Not long after Zhao Cong and Zhao Gui entered, Ji Chang came over again, cupped his hands and smiled at Li Jiaoniang, "Miss Li, the officials invite Madam Li to come in and talk."

I knew I would meet her.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Master Ji, please lead the way."

Jichang looked back at Li Jiaoniang, and walked into the hall first.

He watched Li Jiaoniang's behavior secretly, and thought that this lady Li was really not simple, she even knew the rules of walking in the palace.

Li Jiaoniang saw his doubts in her eyes and sneered in her heart.

Isn't it just a walk, what's the fuss, she has never learned palace rules in this life, and she has learned a lot of historical knowledge in previous lives.

Her grandmother in the previous life was a serious lady, and she knew a lot about etiquette.

After entering the hall, Li Jiaoniang saw that there was a large, long and gorgeous carved table case at the top, with many dragon patterns engraved on the table case.

Behind the table sat Gaozong in a dragon robe.

When Gaozong saw Li Jiaoniang approaching, he raised his chin majestically.

I heard that this Li Jiaoniang is not simple, she has already taken care of the Mu family's Zhuangzi, he wants to hear how she is taking care of it.

Li Jiaoniang stepped forward, saluting neither humble nor overbearing, "Mr. Luo Li, the civilian woman, see the official family."

There is no need to kneel and salute, just curtsey.

Li Jiaoniang expressed her satisfaction with the etiquette of this period.

She hated Qing Shi's kneeling and kowtowing.

If the emperor is unhappy, he will make people kneel all the time. Is that the fault of people?

During this period, the emperor could not punish people at will. If he was a civil servant, he could speak out against the emperor's hegemony.

Gao Zong nodded, "Be flat."

The knee was bent for more than ten seconds.

Li Jiaoniang secretly exhaled, straightened up, "Thank you, the official family."

Gaozong picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and began to ask, "I heard people say that Mrs. Li has arranged for the manor to take care of the Zhuangzi of Pu'an County King? How is the progress?"

Li Jiaoniang talked about the progress, "The wasteland near Zhuangzi has been arranged for some villagers to open up wasteland, and the houses in the village have also been invited to take care of them."

"..."

"When I received the Zhuangzi this year, it was already winter, so I could only do tidying up. When the new year comes to spring, I will arrange for people to repair the fruit trees in the village and the fields outside the village."

Gao Zong nodded, and asked Zhao Cong about his studies.

Zhao Cong has completely recovered his memory, and he can almost answer Gaozong's questions fluently.

This made Gao Zong very satisfied.

"I still have some important matters to deal with. You should leave first. Lady Li and his wife will attend the palace banquet in the evening." Gaozong put down the teacup and said.

Didn't say much.

Li Jiaoniang quickly thanked her, "Thank you for the official banquet."

It doesn't matter if there is something delicious, the key is to be able to see the important officials of this period.

Exiting Gaozong's main hall, Jichang said again, "The empress dowager has long been looking forward to His Highness the Prince of the County coming to greet her. Your Highness, should I go now, or..."

Zhao Cong frowned and said, "The Empress Dowager misses me, so of course I'm going to visit the Empress Dowager now."

So, Jichang led everyone to the palace of Empress Dowager Wei.

Gaozong was a filial son, the palace between him and his mother, Empress Dowager Wei, was not very far away, and it was only time for everyone to leave for a bowl of tea.

This place is not much different from Gaozong's palace, just as tall and magnificent.

At the gate of the palace, they met a fat boy.

This boy looks slightly younger than Zhao Cong.

Seeing Zhao Cong and Zhao Gui approaching, he waved his sleeves and laughed, "Zhao Cong, I heard that you once ate mud and worked as a beggar in Yuezhou City, didn't you? By the way, you even recognized someone who was not a few years older than yourself." The woman in the house is a godmother, right? Hahaha!"

"I know your mother died early, and I am anxious to find her, but there is no need to find such a young one, right? Hahaha!"

Li Jiaoniang frowned, this fat boy!
Dressed gorgeously, with arrogant words and deeds, and appearing at the gate of Queen Mother Wei's palace again, could it be Gaozong's other adopted son, Zhao Jiu?

She remembered that the history books said that the reason why the Empress Dowager Wei didn't like Zhao Cong was because Zhao Cong was too thin and often fell ill, and worried that he would not live long.

I just like another prince with a strong figure.
