You died to save me, I promise you a lifetime

Aunt Jiang was smiling.

"Thank you for your concern, young lady. I went home during the New Year. It won't be too late to go back after your matter is settled."

Mu Yunge shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Whether my marriage will be successful is still uncertain. You have been following us at the border. Now that you have finally returned to the capital, you should go home more often and spend time with your grandchildren."

Then he looked at An Bei and said, "Give Madam twenty taels of silver so she can buy some food for her grandchildren to take home."

Nanny Jiang's eyes were red, and she knelt down with a plop, "Miss, you gave me fifty taels of silver during the New Year, and helped me build a few large tiled houses and buy furniture and food.

Now you are giving me money again. What have I done to deserve such kindness from you, young lady?!"

Mu Yunge helped Nanny Jiang up with her own hands. "You treated me like your own daughter. You left the capital and went to the border for twelve years for me. You worked day and night to take care of me..."

And because of me, he was killed.

Mu Yunge swallowed the last words.

"Mammy, go back and visit your family and spend some time with them. Then come back on the tenth day of April to take care of me."

Nanny Jiang nodded vigorously in gratitude: "Yes, thank you, Miss!"

Nanny Jiang thanked him repeatedly and left.

That afternoon, Anton brought back news from the second house.

"Miss, Mu Qinxue and her daughter gave the old man a knockout drug, put him on a carriage, and sent him to the farm in the countryside. Our people are following."

"Okay, I get it. Keep watching them, mother and daughter. I want to see what other tricks they can come up with."

Anton just left.

Anxi came back from the street excitedly.

"Miss, it's done. Minister Zou was rescued, and those who went to kill him were all tied up and taken away by Jingzhao Yi. The people who filled the streets followed him, saying that Minister Zou was a good official and demanding that the murderers be severely punished.

I heard that the Emperor was furious and demanded that Jingzhao Yi solve the case as soon as possible. No matter who it is, they will be severely punished once they are found. Now Lord Zou should be safe."

Mu Yunge smiled and said, "Lord Zou is indeed one of the few good officials. He should not become a victim of the struggle for the crown prince."

She suppressed her smile and glanced at An Bei and the others.

"The day after tomorrow, I will go to Puhua Temple with Mu Qinxue. This is a tough battle without gunpowder smoke, so we must be fully alert.

If I win, I can successfully sever ties with that bastard and cancel the engagement.

The road ahead will be difficult, but as long as we don't give up, there is hope."

An Bei said with a serious expression, "Although the enemy we are facing this time may be stronger than us, we have never been afraid of the enemy on the battlefield, and we must not be afraid this time. I always believe that good will prevail over evil.

Besides, we have the prince to help us, so we must work closely with the prince's people."

Annan and Anxi nodded in agreement.

In the afternoon, Lin Jinhao sent a servant from his mansion to deliver an invitation to Mu Yunge to go to Puhua Temple to see the peach blossoms.

Mu Yunge asked the doorman to reply and said that he would go with his sister.

This had never happened before. It seemed that before leaving that day, he said he would invite me out for a walk, specifically to see the peach blossoms.

Two days later at 3:30 am.

Mu Qinxue excitedly came to the General's Mansion and waited: "Sister, hurry up, let's go earlier and we can reach Puhua Temple at 3:30 in the afternoon.

After the vegetarian meal, return to your room to rest for a while, and then in the afternoon you can go to the peach forest in the back mountain."

Talking about the day's schedule, he could not hide the excitement in his eyes and face.

"This shouldn't be your first time going to Puhua Temple to see the peach blossoms, right?" Mu Yunge asked casually.

"Yes, except for last year, I went every year in the past few years."

Mu Qinxue glanced at Mu Yunge proudly and said, "The peach blossoms at Puhua Temple are very famous in the capital. There shouldn't be such beautiful scenery in the border areas."

You are a country bumpkin who grew up in the border area and have no chance to see it.

Mu Yunge smiled indifferently.

"That's for sure! Otherwise, why would no one want to go to the wild and desolate borderlands? But without the desolation of the borderlands, the capital wouldn't be beautiful, would it?"

Mu Qinxue choked and looked at Mu Yunge in confusion.

There's something wrong with this bitch since she woke up from her coma. She's even become sharp-tongued. We have to be careful and don't let her ruin our plans.

After repeated urging from Mu Qinxue, Mu Yunge finally packed up and went out with Annan, Anxi and Anbei.

Before getting on the carriage, Mu Qinxue pulled Mu Yunge's arm and said, "Sister, how about we take the same carriage? We can talk on the way."

"Forget it. I didn't sleep well last night. If the carriage shakes on the road, I will definitely need to sleep. You can also lie down and rest for a while. You can reach Puhua Temple in one sleep."

Mu Qinxue had no choice but to let go of her hand. "Alright then, follow the carriage closely and don't fall behind. I promised my aunt again and again."

"Okay, got it."

Mu Yunge climbed onto the carriage, and An Bei spread bedding on the cushions.

"My lady, I specially chose this carriage where you can lie down and rest. It's an hour and a half journey, so you can have a good sleep."

"Then you guys take turns squeezing in?"

Annan pointed to the seats on both sides of the carriage and said, "I'm not sleepy. Even if I were, we can just sit there. The place is already narrow and the young lady is thin. What if we squeeze her into a dried tofu?"

An Bei smiled and patted her, "You really have no control over your mouth. Sooner or later, you will have to suffer the consequences of your mouth before you learn your lesson."

Annan stuck out his tongue and said, "The lady doesn't dislike me."

"The lady indulges you, and you can speak without restraint like this?"

"Okay, okay, I'll change it!" Annan raised his hands in surrender.

Mu Yunge didn't join in their quarrel. He just lay down, covered himself with the quilt, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

I really didn’t sleep well last night. I feel extremely excited when I think about going to Puhua Temple today.

The carriage started shaking and Mu Yunge fell asleep in a short while.

A teahouse on the street.

Zhao Jingchen looked down from the slightly opened window and saw two carriages passing by below.

"A Zhao, has everything been arranged at Puhua Temple?"

"Your Highness, everything has been arranged. By the way, some of Miss Mu's men are already at Puhua Temple. The two groups have gathered and are being deployed together."

"Well, we'll go tonight too. This is very important to both her and the king, so we must do it cleanly and efficiently."

Li Mingzhao patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Your Highness. If so many of us go there and still can't deal with that Lin Wanku, it would be a big joke."

"Don't underestimate the enemy. His dandy behavior is probably just an act. Judging from what they are planning, he is no simple man.

Also, we have to be on guard against someone coming to disrupt the situation."

Li Mingzhao slapped his head and said, "It's really possible! If the First and Second Princes' people knew that Lin Wanku was targeting Miss Mu, they might really prevent the General's Mansion from becoming an aid to the Third Prince.

If they interfere, it might really ruin our plans. We'll go there tonight and reorganize things."

Zhao Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

A cup of tea later, another team of carriages passed by the window.

Li Mingzhao's eyes were sharp. "It was that dandy boy and a few young masters from aristocratic families, followed by a few young ladies from official families, chattering away."

Zhao Jingchen curled the corners of his mouth.

"I'd like to see who else will join in the fun..."
