Watching Lu Li holding Li Han's hand as they left, Hua Yunyun's eyes were filled with confusion. She wanted Lu Li to stay with her, but she had no reason to do so. She bit her lip, regaining her composure, and with a forced smile on her face, she said to the imperial physician standing before her, "Excuse me, sir."

At this moment, the imperial physician who placed his hand on Hua Yunyun's also spoke lightly: "Miss, you are too polite."

Du Jian, on the other hand, said with a smile, "It's okay. If Miss Hua feels that it's too much trouble for the imperial physician, why not give me a few taels of silver? I'll buy some wine and food tomorrow and come to the palace to thank him for you."

Hua Yunyun smiled after hearing this, and then said: "In that case, I will trouble Master Du tomorrow."

While Du Jian was teasing Hua Yunyun, Lu Li and Li Han had already said goodbye to everyone in the palace, then got on their carriages and headed back home.

In the carriage, Li Han stared at Lu Li, who was resting with his eyes closed, feeling a little confused. Does he really care about me?

Li Han couldn't help but think so in his heart, tightening his grip and asking Lu Li, "Why don't you wait for Junior Sister Hua there?"

Lu Li did not open his eyes, but continued to speak softly with his eyes closed: "Where do you want me to wait for her?"

Seeing Lu Li like this, Li Han didn't want to hide anything anymore and spoke directly, his voice a little muffled.

"I don't want you to just wait for her to come back with us."

After hearing this, Lu Li couldn't suppress a smile on his face, and then he said, "Since you think so, then we won't wait for her."

After hearing Lu Li's words, Li Han's eyebrows curved up, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised. He continued: "Then why do you consider me?"

"You are my wife, and she is just my junior sister."

After saying that, Lu Li opened his eyes and stared at Li Han, his ears a little red.

The difference between the two is that one is a family member and the other is an outsider.

Li Han was speechless, so he just nodded like an ostrich and fell silent. The two of them walked in silence all the way.

After returning to the mansion, Li Han jumped off the carriage and said to Lu Li, who was still in the carriage, "I'm going to sleep first. You should go to the study to handle your official business."

After saying that, Li Han left without looking back.

Seeing this, Lu Li also smiled, he was also a little shy.

When Lu Li arrived at the study, he saw a piece of paper with wet ink on his desk. It said:

"I'll never be like this tonight again."

After Lu Li looked at it, he picked up the paper, blew it dry carefully, and then carefully put the paper into his arms. This was an important piece of evidence that could be used in the future.

After a few days, a piece of news spread in the capital, that is, the envoys of Tan State would soon come to the capital to pay homage to the emperor of Li State.

Li Han was in the mansion, feeling a bit mixed. She had just learned the news today. She naturally knew that Lu Li was from the Tan Kingdom, but the illusions of the past few days had made her a little lost. She brushed Lu Li's collar, then said to him, "You should be busy these few days and help your father receive the envoys from the Tan Kingdom."

Lu Li was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then he forced a smile and said to Li Han, "Don't worry, Madam. I will help my father take care of this matter in the next few days."

Lu Li was actually a little confused. He had not received any news that the Tan Kingdom was coming to the Li Kingdom. He only knew this news after the traveling merchants brought the news to the capital.

When he was still skeptical about the news, he received news from Tanzania again. This surprised him and caught him off guard because he was not prepared at all.

Today, he was going to the palace to discuss this matter with Emperor Li.

After leaving his and Li Han's yard, Lu Li walked straight out of the mansion.

Halfway through his walk, he turned back to the study. He had been thinking about this matter all day and even forgot about the memorial he was going to hand over to Emperor Li.

Hua Yunyun watched Lu Li return to the study and quickly followed him. She was the one who asked the people from Tan Country to come, but she couldn't let Lu Li know about this.

That night, when Hua Yunyun saw Lu Li's expression, she knew that she could no longer endure it. She could not endure Lu Li's relationship with Li Han, and the seemingly peaceful life between them. She could not endure continuing to live a dependent life in Li Country, so she called in the people from Tan Country. She wanted Lu Li to know which side he was on.

Watching Lu Li enter the study, Hua Yunyun quietly followed him in and pulled the bolt of the study door.

He came in front of Lu Li, who was about to leave after receiving the memorial, but bumped into him.

Seeing that he looked a little puzzled, Hua Yunyun spoke first, "Brother, did you recruit those people from Tan Country? Seriously, why didn't you discuss this with me?"

Hua Yunyun looked at Lu Li and spoke softly, her tone seemed to contain a hint of blame. Lu Li frowned when he heard this, then looked at Hua Yunyun and said, "Didn't you recruit the people from Tan Country?"

Lu Li only received the exact news today. Someone from the Tan Kingdom came last night, and the summons from Emperor Li today allowed him to confirm the truth of this matter.

He always thought that it was Hua Yunyun who brought the people from Tan State.

"Brother, you're joking." Hua Yunyun said angrily, glancing at Lu Li before continuing, "How dare I, your junior sister, contact the Tan Kingdom without consulting you?"

Lu Li was puzzled when he heard this, "That's really strange. It's neither you nor me. Could it be that they have their own arrangements and only contacted you and me after they made them?"

Hua Yunyun felt relieved after hearing Lu Li's words. She knew that her goal had been achieved, so she continued to speak to Lu Li, "Brother, don't worry about it here. Why not ask the people from Tan Country later?"

Lu Li nodded and said, "Junior sister, what you said makes sense. After I meet the people from Tan Country, I will ask them for clarification."

After hearing Lu Li's words, Hua Yunyun happily made way and said to Lu Li, "Brother, go quickly. Don't let the people of Li State get suspicious."

After seeing this, Lu Li nodded, walked around Hua Yunyun, left the study, and headed straight for the Li Kingdom's palace.
