The person who stopped Pan Lizhao was a man about the same age as Mu Ting.
I saw him with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a tall figure, wearing a round-collared sapphire blue polka-dot robe, and his mouth was pursed tightly, as if he was very angry.
"Uncle, you're here!" Pan Lizhao's attitude was quite respectful when he saw the visitor.
Lang Jun glanced at Pan Lizhao, bowed and saluted Mu Ting and Lu Shaoting: "Pan Wenxiong, a young man, has met Prince Mu and Commander Lu."
Mu Ting looked at him: "No need to be polite."
If Pan Lizhao calls Pan Wenxiong his uncle, then Pan Wenxiong is the same generation as Princess Huizhen's mother, and in name, Princess Huizhen has to call Pan Wenxiong her uncle.
Lu Shaoting also smiled slightly: "I heard that the head of the Pan family has a son, Wenxiong, who is very talented but refuses to take the exam. It turns out he is your Excellency."
Pan Wenxiong smiled slightly, but he was neither humble nor arrogant: "The world is talking nonsense about being talented. I don't take the exam, not because I don't want to, but because I know that my talents are limited and my knowledge is shallow. If I fail, it will be ridiculed."
He turned to Mu Ting: "Prince Mu just said that the crown prince is a brother of Huizhen County. Along the way, Princess Huizhen has been protected by the crown prince and Commander Lu, and the people are very grateful. I happen to be celebrating my father's birthday tomorrow, so I would like to invite you two. The noble man went to the humble man's house to show his respect, and asked the humble man to prepare some light wine and simple dishes to treat the two noble men."
This Pan Wenxiong can talk much better than Pan Lizhao.
Originally, they were going to send Princess Huizhen to the Pan family, but the difference was just one day earlier and one day later.
Since Pan Wenxiong arrived, Pan Lizhao has made no sound.
Mu Ting agreed: "We were originally going to send Princess Huizhen back to Pan's family, but we were attacked by a pack of wolves in the forest to the west of the county last night, which delayed the trip a little."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Pan Wenxiong frowned, "It has been several years since we heard of a pack of wolves in Hexiang County."
"Maybe it's our bad luck that happened to us." Mu Ting looked at Pan Wenxiong and said calmly.
"Then are you injured?" Pan Wenxiong asked seriously, "If the wolves hurt people, they must be reported to the county government, and the county magistrate will organize good hands to hunt them down."
"Prince Mu, the princess has woken up and is washing up. She will be out to meet you in a few moments." Before Mu Ting could speak, Xiao Man appeared outside the flower hall.
"Now that you're awake, don't come out to meet each other. Just pack up and leave together." Pan Lizhao said.
"Zhao'er, don't be rude!" Pan Wenxiong scolded Pan Lizhao again.
Pan Lizhao pursed his lips and looked ugly.
This Pan Wenxiong can talk, but why is this Pan Lizhao so reckless? Although Pan Wenxiong was the youngest son of the head of the Pan family, he was not arrogant, which was quite impressive.
"My nephew has spoken out loud since he was a child. Please forgive me, two nobles." Pan Wenxiong once again apologized on Pan Lizhao's behalf.
Mu Ting smiled slightly and said: "No problem. But if someone were so disrespectful in our Yanzhou military camp, the head and body would have been separated long ago."
Pan Lizhao finally calmed down and retreated behind Pan Wenxiong.
Lu Shaoting also laughed and said: "Prince Mu, don't frighten the young man."
Commander Lu, who kills people without blinking an eye, wants to be a good person? Mu Ting smiled even more happily: "My reputation is not as good as that of Commander Lu. It is said that people in the capital use Commander Lu's name to scare children."
"You!" Lu Shaoting's face sank, and he was about to have a fit, but he smelled a scent slowly coming towards him.
"Princess Huizhen is here!" Xiao Man and Chun Equinox came to the flower hall with Princess Huizhen on the left and right.
Pan Lizhao looked at Princess Huizhen, who was wearing a white miter that reached her ankles, and couldn't see clearly Princess Huizhen's face. Didn’t you just talk about grooming or something? Is this to freshen up the loneliness? Co-author: They are relatives, yet they can't see her true face? Everyone said that this cousin was born extremely well, so the eldest princess built an attic for her in the house and hid her in the attic from the world.
But the eldest princess is dead, and the eldest princess's palace has been taken back by the emperor. Princess Huizhen has nowhere to go, and she has to stay with the Pan family. Is it time to show her true face to please the Pan family? ?
But Pan Lizhao just thought so and didn't dare to say it out loud.
Princess Huizhen sat down and asked in a sweet voice, "Are the two of you in front of me relatives of my maternal grandfather's family?"
Pan Lizhao frowned: "We are direct descendants of the Pan family, you are just..."
"Zhao'er!" Pan Wenxiong shouted again, but he saluted respectfully to Princess Huizhen, "Pan Wenxiong, a humble citizen, is the fourth son of the current head of the Pan family. According to his seniority, he is the uncle of Princess Huizhen. .Zhaoer, why don’t you pay your respects to Princess Huizhen quickly!”
Pan Lizhao felt aggrieved, but he still did as he was told: "Pan Lizhao, a humble citizen, pays his respects to Princess Huizhen."
"Princess Huizhen, in terms of seniority, Li Zhao can be regarded as the princess's cousin." Pan Wenxiong treated Princess Huizhen respectfully.
Lu Shaoting raised his eyebrows at the side. Pan Wenxiong is really interesting. Princess Huizhen is like this, and he is quite respectful to Princess Huizhen. But there is nothing wrong with Pan Wenxiong's attitude. What if Princess Huizhen becomes frightened again in the future?
"You're welcome, uncle and cousin. When I get to the Pan family in the future, I will have to rely on you more. I heard that tomorrow is my grandpa's birthday, so I still keep my filial piety and feel very sorry that I can't be there to congratulate you in person. But please, uncle and cousin. Don’t worry, I have prepared gifts and will definitely send someone to deliver them tomorrow.”
"Princess Huizhen is interested." Pan Wenxiong bowed deeply again, "We are the natal family of Princess Jiaqing. Logically speaking, we should go to the capital to bring the princess back..."
"Uncle, there is no need to feel guilty. Didn't I get here safely?" Princess Huizhen said in a brisk tone, "In that case, let's just get in the car and set off. It wouldn't be good to delay my grandpa's birthday."
Her coquettish words were still echoing, and people had already left the flower hall.
Pan Wenxiong stared blankly at her white figure walking away, and then he came back to his senses. Princess Huizhen's words just now seemed sarcastic.
But Mu Ting also had other things on his mind: "I want to go to the county government office."
Pan Wenxiong said hurriedly: "Is Mu Shizi doing it for the wolves? Mu Shizi, please rest assured that the magistrate of Hexiang County is Xiaomin's brother-in-law. Xiaomin will write a letter now and let it be sent to the post office later. The clerk can just pass it on to him."
Mu Ting stared at Pan Wenxiong and smiled slowly: "Okay. Then I'll trouble Brother Pan Xian."
He strode away, and Lu Shaoting didn't know when he disappeared.
Only two uncles and nephews, Pan Wenxiong and Pan Lizhao, were left in the flower hall.
Pan Wenxiong, who had been respectful just now, suddenly straightened up. He looked at Pan Lizhao and said, "Why did you get so crazy just now? Every one of those people could kill you."
Pan Lizhao was still unconvinced: "This is our Pan family's territory! I'm afraid of what they will do!"
"But this is still the Cao family's world!" Pan Wenxiong scolded Pan Lizhao fiercely.
Pan Lizhao didn't understand Pan Wenxiong: "Uncle, you are obviously talented and good at dancing, why don't you take the imperial examination? Our Pan family has not produced a Jinshi for more than 40 years, and the other four families are about to trample on us."
"You don't understand." Pan Wenxiong exhaled a breath and shouted loudly, "Pan Twenty, quickly bring up the paper, pen, inkstone!"
Pan Ershi was a clerk in the post house.
He's not stupid. Wouldn't it be better to be a local emperor? He had to squeeze into the capital.
Even the highly favored Gao family only has one high school minister?
