Miss, that's not the main point …

Yi Han was helpless. As a Dark Guard, her duty was to carry out Master's tasks, but Lu Jinnian placed them on the same level and told them everything.

This was also the reason why they were willing to work for Lu Jinnian — there was a strange hole in their master's brain. Even if they could understand their thoughts and goals, they would still be unable to keep up with it.

If Lu Jinnian knew what they were thinking, she would definitely retort. This was a new concept of the twenty-first century. It would be strange if all of you fully understood it. However, Lu Jinnian was already too lazy to care about anything anymore.

When Lu Jinnian woke up, it was already the next morning. He sat up and stretched his body before calling Yi Nuan and Yi Han in.

"Miss, which of the two of us would you like to hear first?"

Lu Jinnian looked at the two of them, speechless.

Yi Nuan and Yi Han were twin sisters, except Yi Nuan was lively and Yi Han was a martial arts fanatic.

Under normal circumstances, Lu Jinnian would have Yi Nuan stay in the open as her maid, while Yi Han stayed in the dark as the Dark Guard. Even if they had to do something in the dark, the twins still had an advantage.

Although the difference between the twins was so small that the average person couldn't tell them apart, this didn't include Lu Jinnian, who spent her days together.

"Warm, even if you strain your face as hard as the cold, I will still recognize you."

Lu Jinnian looked at Yi Nuan and smiled, "Since that's the case, you can say it first."

Yi Nuan scratched her head in embarrassment, "Miss, yesterday I followed Third Miss Lu and saw her meeting with the Prime Minister's daughter Pei Qing in private. Both of them used a curtain to hide their faces and cover their eyes. They asked for a private room in a teahouse."

"Subordinate's concealment skills are not as good as Yi Han's, so I didn't dare to get too close. I could only hear their conversation saying that Third Miss Lu gave Pei Qing some medicine and told her to take care of Lu Second Miss two days later."

"Miss, if you go out, you will be able to hear that last night, Prime Minister Mansion's direct daughter's kitchen was set on fire. The fire spread throughout the entire courtyard, and it was said that Pei Yin's face was burnt, and the position of Liangjing's ugliest woman changed."

Lu Jinnian, "…"

Yi Han continued, "It's not that exaggerated. I just used fire to burn her hair bald. The rest were unharmed. She was forced to shave all her hair."

"Pfft, my cold darling, what kind of enmity do you have with Pei Yin for you to act so viciously?"

Pei Yin's parents were not in a bad mood. Besides, a girl's hair was related to her beauty to a certain extent. Pei Yin's temper was so bad that even a baldy would not be able to escape her fate.

Yi Han kept her face averted, "Who asked her to say anything bad about the young mistress." Now, let's see who exactly is the ugly woman!

Fine, since Yi Han came in accordance with her request, she taught Pei Yin a lesson without harming her life. Furthermore … It had to be said that Lu Jinnian was in a very good mood. She wasn't a good person, and she definitely wouldn't abuse her compassion on someone who had humiliated her before.

Skipping over this topic, Yi Han took out a letter from her chest pocket and handed it to Lu Jinnian, "Then it's a letter from Yan Ze."

Lu Jinnian opened the envelope and read the contents of the letter. She frowned. "Yan Ze wrote that the Huns' Khan, Anubis, sent an envoy with the intention of making a marriage alliance."

"Miss, doesn't marriage make our relationship with the Huns better? Isn't it more convenient to take the caravan with Yan Ze?"

"That depends on whether we go over to make love or if they come over to make love. Even if they come together, the meaning is different."

Lu Jinnian explained, "Yan Ze said that the Huns had brought the princess with them, but Anu Biji, as the prince of the Huns, also came along, probably thinking that both sides would go along with each other. "Hun, that's quite a beautiful thought."

Lu Jinnian tore the letter into pieces and handed it to Yi Han to deal with, "But it's not that easy for the Huns to succeed. After all, in the last war, they were the losers, and they wanted to use the princess of the loser's side to exchange for our princess, unless …"

"Unless what, miss?"

Lu Jinnian shook her head. She had probably thought too much into it. However, in the game between the two countries, it was not excessive to make extra preparations …

"..."

The most luxurious place for decoration was neither the reception hall nor the garden, but the Hibiscus Courtyard where Aunt Mrs Shen lived.

Adjacent to Great General's courtyard, not only did he get a carved fence and an easel, he even got himself a piece of Taihu Lake Stone and dug out a small pond.

Not to mention the residence of Lu Jinnian, the direct daughter of the family, it was even better than the courtyard of the main wife of all the families in the entire Liangjing City.

At this moment, the owner of the yard was crazily throwing things to vent the impatience in his heart.

When Lu Qingyao knocked on the door and entered, Mrs Shen had just thrown a Flourish Flower Pastel on the ground. The burst of porcelain flew past Lu Qingyao's feet and nearly injured her ankle.

Mrs Shen raised her head to look at her and didn't ask if she was hurt just now. Instead, she fiercely gripped her shoulders and shook her as she said, "Yao Yao, you're still in contact with that man, right? Get him to give us some of that medicine. Hurry!"

Lu Qingyao struggled to get away from Mrs Shen's grasp on her pain. "Mother, let go of me quickly. It hurts so much. I've lost contact with him a long time ago. How could I possibly have gotten the medicine?"

"Don't lie to me. Pei Yin will become like this because of you. If you don't want me to tell you, then just obediently bring the medicine!"

Lu Qingyao trembled inwardly. "Mother, what nonsense are you spouting!?"

"Are you kidding me? You know that for the sake of your sister's future, hurry up and give me the medicine. I'm going to make that bitch Lu Jinnian lose her reputation!"

Lu Qingyao lowered her head in silence. She knew that her mother would only think of her sister Lu Qingwan. Even when Lu Qingwan came into contact with Fourth Prince, it was Mrs Shen who helped to make the connection. In her eyes, there was no such thing as herself.

However, when she had dealt with Lu Qingwan, she would have to target Lu Jinnian. Borrowing Mrs Shen's help was not a difficult task, even if they traced her out in the end, they wouldn't be able to find her, right?

"Hey, Yaoyao, don't mention how your mother is biased. You will only be old next year, and as long as your sister marries Fourth Prince as she wishes and becomes Fourth Prince's wife, how could you, as her own sister, marry badly?"

"It's exactly Lu Jinnian, that eyesore. Since the direct daughter isn't married yet, the concubine is the first to be married off. She will be criticized for being impolite and be chosen for marriage. If she's unhappy, then don't blame me for using other methods to get her out of the pavilion."

Glimmers danced in Lu Qingyao's eyes. "I know mother is always doing this for me and elder sister's sake. It's just that I've really broken off all contact with that person. But there was still a bit of that medicine before. I'll go get it for mother now."
