Chapter 942
The Duke of the old town is discussing with his sons and grandchildren what happened in the court recently in the study, when Xiao Si outside the house said that the maid next to the young lady has come to report, and the young lady has another nightmare.

Knowing that his most beloved granddaughter had another nightmare, the old man could not sit still, so he immediately rushed to the courtyard where she lived.

The old Duke's two sons also loved the niece Miao Si very much, so they walked behind the old father.

"Second brother, let's go too." The third young master of Zhen Guogong pulled his brother to catch up with his grandfather.

Miao Si, who was waiting at the courtyard gate, saw her grandfather and uncle approaching, and also saw her two cousins ​​following behind them, feeling a little sorry.

"Miao girl, but I had a nightmare again. Are you feeling better now? Do you need to see a doctor?" Although Miao Si is the granddaughter of the old Duke, the old man has always regarded her as a granddaughter.

"Grandpa..." Miao Si yelled out a word from Grandpa, and was immediately glared disapprovingly by the old Duke.

Miao Si gave a dry laugh, and changed her words: "Grandpa, I didn't have a nightmare, it's too...you will know when you come into the room with me." Miao Si didn't explain.

The old Duke did not doubt that he was there, and followed Miao Si into the house.

The four behind them looked at each other, and then followed into the house.

Hua Qian was sitting in the room eating pastries, she looked up to see Miao Si walking in with the help of an old man.No need to guess, Hua Qian also knows that the old man in front of her is the Duke of Laozhen, Huo An!
As for the four people following him, the elder two must be his two sons, the eldest son Huo Zhenyang, the second son Huo Zhenxing, the second grandson Huo Yunan, and the third grandson Huo Yuxi.

The eldest grandson Huo Yudong, Huo Zhenyang's eldest son and eldest son, had passed away a few years ago.

"I've seen the old duke, the duke, the second master, and the two young masters." Hua Qian stood up and bowed to the four people opposite.

The old man squinted at Hua Qian who was opposite, but didn't speak.

For a while, the room was quiet, and a needle could be heard.

Miao Si looked a little anxious, and broke the silence, "Grandpa, let me introduce you, this is..."

"Princess Concubine!" The old Duke directly revealed Hua Qian's identity without waiting for Miao Si to finish.

Hua Qian smiled and said, "The old Duke has never seen me, yet he can guess my identity."

The old man snorted softly, found the nearest seat and sat down.

Seeing this, Hua Qian smiled and poured tea for him, "You always drink tea."

Looking at the misty tea in front of him, the old man raised his head to Hua Qian, "What's the matter for the late-night visit of the Crown Princess?"

Being so straight to the point, Hua Qian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "I do have something to ask for. You always wanted to come and heard about the recent court..."

"This old man is already in his seventies, and he has long since stopped caring about the affairs of the court." The old Duke interrupted Hua Qian's words rudely.

Hua Qian: ...

"Princess concubine asked us to talk about things in the court, I'm afraid she's talking to the wrong person." Huo Zhenyang was worse than his father, and blocked the conversation directly.

The corners of Hua Qian's mouth trembled in anger. Fortunately, she knew the nature of Zhen Guogong's family before, and knew that their words were so direct and annoying, but she didn't take it to heart.

"Let's not talk about the old man, Lord Zhen, you and the second master were famous generals who were brave and good at fighting. Don't you feel guilty when you say this?" Hua Qian raised her eyebrows. She didn't believe that the old man's family really didn't care State affairs.

"What generation of famous generals, heh~" Huo Zhenyang snorted coldly, not buying Hua Qian's praise at all.

Hua Qian took a deep breath, looked at the old man again, and said in a serious tone: "Old man, now there is a chance to get rid of Daqi's moths from inside, are you willing to help?"

The old man's narrowed eyes suddenly widened, staring at Hua Qian for a long time, before turning to look at his son and grandson beside him.

It took only a moment for the five people to look at each other, and they all had plans in their hearts.

"The princess is really sure to get rid of the moths in Daqi?" Huo Zhenyang said in a deep voice.

If the moths in Daqi can really be eliminated, then it can be regarded as revenge for the eldest son.

"Naturally. However, I need your help from the Duke of Zhen Guo." Hua Qian said.

Duke Zhen glanced at his father, and seeing that he had no objection, he said, "What does the Crown Princess need from Duke Zhen?"

"Lead the soldiers to fight!" After Hua Qian finished speaking, everyone present was stunned for a long time.

The old prince sighed, suddenly got up and knelt down towards Hua Qian, and said: "The old minister's family is willing to listen to the princess' orders."

Seeing this, Lord Zhenyang Huo Zhenyang and his second brother pulled their son beside them and knelt down together.

Hua Qian was taken aback, and quickly avoided the big gifts from the four of them, "Get up quickly, don't kneel down on me, or your life will be shortened."

"Puchi..." Miao Si couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward to support the old Duke's arm, "Grandpa, get up quickly, the Crown Princess doesn't like people kneeling on her."

The old man was slightly startled, looked at Hua Qian, and found that she did not look unhappy, he believed Miao Si's words.

Afterwards, Miao Si was sent out to guard the door, while Hua Qian and the old man had a secret conversation in the room.

An hour later, Hua Qian left the Zhen Guogong's mansion.

However, the old Duke did not leave the courtyard where Miao Si lived for a long time, sitting in the room for a long time unable to regain his senses.

Miao Si looked at her grandfather's excited and worried face, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, it's almost dawn, I'll help you go back to your yard to rest."

The old man waved his hand, took a sip of the cold tea on the table, and looked at Miao Si again, "Miao girl, how much do you know about this princess?"

"How much do you know..." Miao Si pondered for a while, thinking about the past with Hua Qian, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"Grandpa, don't worry. The Crown Princess is a very good person. As long as she recognizes someone, she will take good care of her. You don't have to worry about killing the donkey."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The old man gave Miao Si a look, but he didn't mean to blame him, "Your Highness, how much do you know?"

Miao Si frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, "The prince listens to the princess very much!"

"..." The old man and the others were startled by these words, and then they all laughed.

It seems that His Royal Highness is fearful of internal affairs, but it is understandable. The Crown Princess is the head of the Xie family. If His Royal Highness wants to secure that position, he naturally needs the help of the Crown Princess.

"The crown prince is a great help to the crown prince. He is willing to listen to the crown prince now, but he may not listen in the future." Huo Zhenyang frowned.

Miao Si looked at the expressions of grandpa, uncle, and cousins, covered her mouth and smiled, "Grandpa used to listen to grandma very much, could it be because of her status?"

After what Miao Si said, Lao Guogong and others already knew the reason.

However, the old Duke pretended to be calm and said: "You girl, you are joking about grandpa."

Hua Qian, who returned to the East Palace, first went to the side hall to see the three children, and then went back to the sleeping palace to sleep.

When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

Hua Qian was about to have dinner when Eunuch Yan, who was beside Empress Dowager Jiang, led seven or eight courtiers into the East Palace.

"Princess Concubine, the Empress Dowager has an order to order your Xie family to take out 30 taels of silver for the imperial court to sell food and send it to the border army."
