Tomorrow morning, the emperor will issue an order to leave the capital, and it will be too late to make preparations.

Besides her aunt Shen, Shen Zhilan's only concern is Jiang Yuzhu.

Mo Yan grabbed Shen Zhilan’s sleeve and pleaded, “Sister-in-law, I also want to go to Xie Mansion with you.”

This time I leave Beijing, perhaps we will be separated for several years, and perhaps we will never meet again.

Mo Yan felt melancholy and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Chen Zhilan's eyes flickered as she smiled soothingly, "Yan'er, you can't bear to leave your cousin's wife. Is it because of the grilled fish? How about you call me sister-in-law and I'll give you her secret recipe?"

Mo Yan's thoughts were exposed, and she said embarrassedly, "Even if you learn it, your skills won't be as good as Sister Yuzhu's!"

The quarrel between the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law eased the atmosphere.

The lights were shining brightly in Xie's house.

Because of the banquet for guests during the day, dinner at the mansion was delayed by one hour.

Jiang Yuzhu was just putting charcoal into the stove when Liang An came running in to report, panting heavily, "Madam, the master has been summoned by the Emperor, along with General Mo Da and General Mo Shao, and other generals. I heard there's been another war in the north!"

"Another war?"

Jiang Yuzhu put down the charcoal and couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

"Some time ago, the people of the border town bartered with the barbarians. Are the barbarians getting impatient so quickly?"

Jiang Yuzhu didn't have a deep understanding of the situation in the north, but she was well aware of the Mo family's dominant position.

Once the war breaks out, Princess Yutan and the Mo family generals will leave Beijing and return to the north.

The evening breeze blows, and the trumpet creepers climbing on the corner of the wall sway in the wind, emitting a rich fragrance.

Jiang Yuzhu's thoughts gradually slowed down. Just as she was about to speak, Hongli ran over with her skirt lifted and said, "Madam, the second young master is here!"
