In the capital, the most exciting event these days is the army's return.

After two years of fighting, the army won a great victory. The emperor was very pleased and immediately ordered a reward for the three armies.

When Su Qingwan heard the news, she was also happy for Lan Xijing.

The Zheng family was originally of high status, and now that Zheng Yuzhen was a young hero, no one doubted that.

She was waiting for the couple to finalize their wedding and inform her of the date so that she could go and do Lan Xijing's makeup.

These days, knowing that Lan Xijing didn't have time to come, Su Qingwan was still looking for books for her.

Most of the Lan family's books are orthodox, but she has more unofficial histories and travel notes.

She was tidying up her work with Qinshu when Aunt Xin suddenly came to visit her.

"Madam, please ask Aunt Qin to tell us that if we want to leave, we can leave, but are you serious?"

Su Qingwan looked at Aunt Xin in surprise. She didn't expect that the first person to come to see her would be Aunt Xin.

She remembered that when she first came in, the first person to give her a show of power was Aunt Xin.

She could see that Aunt Xin still had some feelings for Yan Mingjue.

After thinking about it for a while, she nodded:

"Yes."

"Have you decided where to go?"

Although Aunt Xin's father was the Jingzhao Yin, she was just a concubine's daughter and was not valued at home.

Another concubine, I'm afraid she will be...

"I want to leave the capital and go to a place where no one knows me."

"Ma'am, can you do this?"

Su Qingwan was stunned. She didn't expect Aunt Xin to think this way.

Aunt Xin looked at Su Qingwan and said:

"I am a concubine's daughter. I know what life is like to be a concubine. My aunt is dead. I don't want to die in the backyard like her."

The most important thing is that Yan Ming absolutely has no feelings for her.

Before Su Qingwan entered the room, she still thought that Yan Ming definitely had some feelings for her.

If they don't like it, who would be so generous?

However, after Su Qingwan came into the house, she realized what true love was and what it meant to truly care about someone.

And all the pampering she thought she had received before was nothing more than an impatient dismissal, just like dismissing a kitten or a puppy.

"Please help me, Madam."

Aunt Xin, who had always been arrogant, knelt down in front of Su Qingwan and kowtowed heavily.

Su Qingwan looked at her for a while and said:

"Get up first. Let me think about this."

"Thank you, Madam."

Aunt Xin was not discouraged. As long as the lady did not refuse outright, there was still hope.

After Aunt Xin left, Qinshu said:

"She turned out to be the smartest one."

I thought Aunt Xin was a person without tact, but I never thought that she was so insightful in this matter.

Su Qingwan nodded. Who said it wasn’t?

If you are the first one to stand up at this time and not cause trouble, you will still remember her kindness and will not treat her badly.

She took the money and went to a place where no one knew her, where she could start over.

Just say that your husband has died and you are a widow.

Su Qingwan had never thought of telling Yan Mingjue about the matter of the concubine in the backyard, but since Concubine Xin had a special status, she thought about it and decided to tell Yan Mingjue about it.

Yan Mingjue didn't expect that she would have such an idea, and was very surprised to hear it.

"In the past, adults had to be wary of many things, but now they don't have to."

"We are not running a charity, why should we support them for nothing?"

"I don't want to keep them trapped in this mansion."

"Besides, I don't want to see them!"

Hearing this last sentence, Yan Mingjue's heart moved. He looked at Su Qingwan. Was it what he thought?

Su Qingwan's eyes sparkled as she said slowly:

"I don't want any other women in the backyard, even in name only!"
