Madam General, please run slower.

After getting to know Jiang Wan a little bit, sister Song Qinyu completely relaxed and started eating melon seeds in Jiang Wan's south yard.

"Sister Jiang, do you think the general is really busy thinking about his loved ones every day in the Jinli Hall next door?"

"Qinyu!" Sister Song Qinshu warned her in a low voice not to talk nonsense.

"Okay, Qinshu, you don't have to be so reserved here with me." Jiang Wan waved his hand and started eating some melon seeds.

The younger sister, who had someone to back her up, stuck out her tongue at her elder sister and moved towards Jiang Wan, "Sister Jiang, if the general wanted to be reminded of someone by seeing something, why didn't he just move into the west courtyard?"

"Is it possible that he doesn't dare?" Jiang Wan ate melon seeds so casually, which was rare. The more she ate, the more excited she became. Since she let go of Yu Xun, her life had become more and more relaxed.

"Don't dare? Is there anything the general doesn't dare to do?" Song Qinyu found it hard to believe.

"The West Courtyard is where the little princess lives, and it's also their wedding room. If the general moves in, he'll think of the little princess whenever he sees her, and he'll be miserable."

"That's right." Song Qinyu nodded in approval, "I never knew the general was such a sentimental person."

"It should be said that the little princess is the most charming one."

Jiang Wan's words caused the two people in front of him to nod frequently, and Song Qinyu even covered the purse around her waist with a look of heartache.

Some time ago, Song Qinyu wanted to go out to buy snacks on a whim, but she didn't expect that the rumors about the general outside were getting more and more intense. As soon as she went out on the street in the carriage of the general's mansion, she was surrounded by a crowd of people, and all kinds of rotten fish and rotten fruits were thrown at her.

Song Qinyu, who was being escorted all the way to the general's mansion, felt a heat in her waist. When she changed her clothes at the mansion, she found that the talisman given to her by the princess had spontaneously combusted. Song Qinyu was shocked. She was so frightened that she didn't pay attention to what happened. She hurriedly asked the maid what happened.

After asking, she found out that a butcher was so angry that he swung his knife at her. Just as the knife was about to hit Song Qinyu, the butcher suddenly fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

The maidservant was thanking God and the Bodhisattva, but Song Qinyu knew that this Bodhisattva was the little princess who had little interaction with them.

Song Qinyu hurried to tell her sister about this, and naturally received a scolding from her sister. Song Qinyu was not afraid at all, but just felt sorry that the amulet given to her by the little princess was used so casually by herself.

"I don't know if the little princess will come back." Song Qinyu sighed. The little princess saved her life, but she didn't even have the chance to thank her in person.

"You'll come back when the time comes." Jiang Wan could only comfort her in this way, "Given the current situation in the General's Mansion, it would be a good thing for the little princess to leave the General's Mansion."

"That's true." Song Qinyu looked at her sister, and after seeing the latter nod, she hesitated and said to Jiang Wan, "Sister Jiang, what are your plans for the future?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Wan was a little confused about what she meant.

"Oh, that's it..." Song Qinyu leaned close to Jiang Wan's ear and whispered, "We plan to ask the general for a divorce letter and return to Jiangnan."

Jiang Wan blinked. He didn't expect that the two of them were talking about this plan. "Well, can I ask why you chose to go back to the mansion with the general?"

Jiang Wan had wanted to ask them this question a long time ago. These two sisters were different from her. She had long seen that they had no romantic feelings for the general. It was also because of this that when she was full of Yu Xun in her early years, although she didn't like these two people, she didn't deliberately target them.

Song Qinyu looked at her sister and didn't know what to say and what not to say.

Sister Song Qinshu quickly took over the conversation, "We didn't have a choice at the beginning. Back then, our family was targeted by the powerful and there was constant internal strife. Father ignored our wishes and pushed us to the general who was heading south. Our following the general into the mansion was just a deal between father and the general.

Some time ago, my father heard about the General's Mansion, and wrote to ask us if we wanted to go back to Jiangnan, saying that if we wanted to escape from the capital, he would go and discuss it with the general. I knew that the General's Mansion was in danger at this time, and it would be a bit unkind for us to leave like this.

But what happened to Qinyu on the street that day made me feel scared, and I had to think about it more."

"You have a good father." Jiang Wan's tone was full of envy. When he thought of his own situation, the smile on his lips was a little bitter.

"I can't leave, so you can go if you can. You came to the mansion just because your father made a deal with the general to protect you. The general also benefited from it. There is no such thing as being honest or dishonest."

"That's what I advised my sister too." Song Qinyu murmured. Rather than wasting the rest of her life in the general's mansion, she would rather go back to Jiangnan to do business with her father.

Seeing that Jiang Wan also agreed with this matter, Song Qinshu stopped worrying about it and wrote a letter to her father overnight.

But the letter was intercepted before it was sent out.

Wu Huang was also present when the secret guard came to report the news to Yu Xun.

Wu Yu had just returned to the capital and had not had time to rest when he was called into the general's mansion by Yu Xun, under the pretext of "reminiscing about the past". Knowing that Yu Xun wanted to question him about the portraits, Wu Yu spent most of his time trying to explain himself before he could finish his speech and was interrupted by the secret guards.

Yu Xun did not intend to hide it from Wu Huang, so he asked the secret guard to speak directly. But when the secret guard finished speaking, Yu Xun turned around and met his brother's sympathetic eyes, and he had to regret his decision not to drive him out.

"Send the letter as usual." Yu Xun waved his hand. Even if there was no letter, he would have sent them back. They were in the general's mansion and could easily be used as leverage against him. Even Jiang Wan and Yu Xun had planned where she would go.

The secret guard pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Father Song is currently living in an inn outside the capital."

Yu Xun: "...When did he come?"

"It's been a while."

Yu Xun was completely speechless. "Tell the two sisters to pack their things and deliver them along with the letter."

"Yes." The secret guard bowed and retreated.

As soon as the secret guards left, Wu Huang couldn't hold back any longer and asked teasingly, "General, have two more wives run away?"

"What wife? Don't talk nonsense." Yu Xun retorted with a frown.

"Yeah, these ones are not wives. Only the little princess is a proper wife, right?"

That was not wrong. After all, the only person Yu Xun had ever worshipped was Qu Tangli. Seeing that Yu Xun was getting impatient, Wu Yu quickly changed the subject, "I have good news this time. Do you want to hear about the little princess's general?"

"Speak." Yu Xun glared at Wu Huang. This man was becoming more and more like Shi Yaojue. He even spoke in a mean voice.

Wu Huang coughed lightly. Yu Xun's eyes clearly told him that if he didn't talk nicely, he would be beaten. "General, just stay in the capital and complete the layout. The princess will come back to find you on her own."

"What do you mean?" Yu Xun found it unbelievable when he heard that Qu Tangli would come back to find him.

Wu Yu directly mentioned in his letter to Yu Xun that he had made a deal with the little princess. As for what the deal was, he did not write it clearly, just to see the expression on Yu Xun's face. "For the Western Prince's military dispatch this time, the little princess and I made a deal of 10,000 taels of silver. I only paid a deposit of 1,000 taels. The little princess said that she would come to pick up the remaining 9,000 taels of silver after the deal was done."

"Really?!" Yu Xun's eyes lit up, "Did she say when she would come to pick it up?"

Wu Huang shook his head, "The little princess left in a hurry, as if she had something to do."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm glad you'll come. I'll ask Yaojue to prepare the money." Yu Xun excitedly picked up paper and pen to write a letter.

"Don't worry, General. I have told you the good news. I have some bad news..."
