271 Taking a Bath
After another month of traveling, the convoy finally returned to the Imperial Capital before New Year's Eve.
Yan Nanguan waited at the city gate with the Eagle Guards in advance. As soon as they saw Duke Lang's carriage, they immediately went forward.
"Greetings, Your Highness and Princess Consort!"
Yan Nanguan said, "Your Highness, it's a long journey. It's been hard on you."
The wind was cold. They waited near the city gate for a long time. Their noses were red from the cold.
Xiao Juan rode on the horse and said to them.
"You guys go back first. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I'll give you a day off. Go home and celebrate with your relatives. See you at the Justice Department the day after tomorrow."
The Eagle Guards were delighted and replied in unison.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Lo Pingsha, Meng Xizhou, Yan Nanguan, and the others left while Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan returned to their residence.
Granny Xiu Yan had long ordered someone to warm the room. As soon as Yu Niaoniao entered, she felt like she had instantly transitioned from winter to spring. She took off her cloak and outer clothes and sat in the rocking chair. She sighed comfortably.
"Home is still the most comfortable!"
Granny Xiu Yan asked solicitously.
"I've already asked someone to boil hot water. Do you want to take a hot bath first?"
In order to hurry back, Yu Niaoniao had not taken a good bath for a while. Hearing this, she immediately replied.
"Alright, I'll take a bath now!"
There was a bath in Langjun Imperial Palace, but Xiao Juan never liked to enjoy it. He usually bathed quickly and rarely used the bath, so this bath was idle all year round.
Things were different now. Ever since the Duke's Palace had Yu Niaoniao as its mistress, the bath could finally play its rightful role.
Yu Niaoniao took off her clothes and let her body slowly sink into the warm water.
She leaned back against the wall of the pool and narrowed her eyes. The faint fragrance of essential oils filled the air.
At this moment, every pore on her body had opened up. She was very relaxed and felt extremely comfortable.
Granny Xiu Yan walked in with tea and snacks.
She placed the refreshments beside the bath and asked.
"Do you need me to wipe your back, Princess Consort?"
Yu Niaoniao said, "Okay, okay!"
She turned around and turned her back to Granny Xiu Yan.
Granny Xiu Yan squatted down, rolled up her sleeves, and wiped her back with a soft wet handkerchief.
"County Princess, I didn't see Dang Gui just now. Where did she go?"
Yu Niaoniao fiddled with the petals floating on the water and sighed. "She went home."
Granny Xiu Yan was confused. "Went home?"
Yu Niaoniao explained how Dang Gui lost her memory and then regained it.
Granny Xiu Yan sighed.
"I didn't expect Dang Gui to be the daughter of General Zhengyuan. I originally thought that she was just an ordinary little girl."
