Did her grandfather know that she went to the Prince's Mansion? Or was there something else important?

Arriving at the door of the study, Lin Yue knocked gently.

"Come in." General Lin's steady voice came from inside.

Lin Yue opened the door and walked in. He saw General Lin sitting at the desk with a serious look on his face.

"Grandfather." Lin Yue saluted.

General Lin looked at her and asked, "Why are you going to the Prince's Mansion today?"

Lin Yue said, "Grandfather, the day before yesterday, Yue'er ran into Miss Lu and had a great conversation with her. Today was invited by Miss Lu."

General Lin's eyes were sharp as he continued to ask, "Just a reunion? Is there anything else?"

Lin Yue replied: "Grandpa, it's really just a gathering for dinner, nothing else."

General Lin snorted coldly: "Girl, don't hide it from me. Miss Lu has a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. You are close to her. Don't you know the current situation?"

Lin Yue hurriedly said, "Grandpa, Yue'er has absolutely no other intentions. Miss Lu is simple-minded, generous, and not as delicate as the girls in Beijing. Yue'er just likes her, that's all."

General Lin was silent for a moment, then said, "Yuer, the situation in the court is complicated now, and we in the Lin family must act with caution. The Crown Prince and Prince Yu are fighting endlessly, and we must not get involved easily."

Lin Yue said: "Grandfather, Yue'er understands."

General Lin said again: "Then tell me, did you notice anything unusual in the Prince's Mansion today?"

Lin Yue thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, I didn't find anything unusual. It's just that Miss Lu seems to be quite simple and ignorant of worldly affairs."

General Lin frowned. "This Miss Lu suddenly appeared in the capital, and she has a close relationship with the Crown Prince. There may be something fishy going on behind her."

Lin Yue said: "Grandfather, maybe it's just a coincidence."

General Lin shook his head: "There are not so many coincidences in the world. You should be more careful when you interact with her in the future."

Lin Yue responded: "Yes, Grandfather."

General Lin sighed, "Yuer, Grandfather is doing this for the Lin family's sake. In this situation, if we make a wrong move, we could lose everything. Remember, no matter how Prince Yu and the Crown Prince fight, we in the General's Mansion are only loyal to the Emperor."

Lin Yue said: "Grandfather, don't worry, Yue'er will be careful."

General Lin said solemnly, "Prince Yu is ambitious and has always been eyeing the position of Crown Prince. Now he is secretly colluding with various forces, and I am afraid he will stir up a bloody storm."

At this time, a servant came running over: "Old Master, there is news."

General Lin said, "Come in and tell me."

The servant walked into the study and whispered something in General Lin's ear.

Mr. Lin's expression changed: "Is this true?"

The servant nodded: "It is absolutely true."

General Lin looked at Lin Yue and said, "Yuer, you go down first. Remember, be more careful about everything."

Lin Yue bowed and left.

After Lin Yue returned to her room, she was filled with thoughts. She recalled the moments she had spent with Lu Tingyan and felt that Lu Tingyan was not a scheming person, but her grandfather's concerns were not unreasonable.

"Oh, I hope I don't want to get involved in this dispute." Lin Yue murmured to himself.

At the same time, in Prince Yu’s mansion.

Prince Yu sat in a chair and listened to his subordinates' reports.

The subordinate said respectfully: "Your Highness, after Miss Lin from the General's Mansion returned home, she had a long secret conversation with General Lin in the study. The specific content is unknown."

Prince Yu frowned, tapping his fingers on the tabletop in a rhythmic sound. "Humph, it seems that the General's Mansion is also quite cautious about its relationship with the Crown Prince. What kind of changes will Miss Lin's contact with Lu Tingyan bring to the situation?"

"Your Highness, should we take action?" the subordinate asked cautiously.

Prince Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Hold still for now. Keep an eye on the General's Mansion and the Crown Prince's Mansion, especially Lu Tingyan's every move. I want to see what they are planning."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The subordinate responded and was about to retreat.

Prince Yu suddenly spoke again: "Wait, go check Lu Tingyan's background. I want to know everything about her."

The subordinates took the order and left. Prince Yu stood up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, and had a lot of thoughts in his mind. "Prince, do you think you can sit on the throne securely by winning over the general's mansion? I will never let you succeed. Lu Tingyan, you'd better not become a stumbling block for me."
