Miss Wang also laughed and said, "So what if she doesn't see us? I heard she didn't see anyone else either. Besides, my father was personally invited by the Prince to serve as a military officer in Yukang Prefecture. This shows that the Prince values ​​our family. Our Wang family will surely rise to a higher level in the future."

She paused, blushed, and whispered, "If I am fortunate enough to become empress, the wealth and honor of the Wang family will be beyond question. We will surely bring glory to our family and trample the Lu family of Qinzhou under our feet!"

Madam Wang said with relief, "It's good that you can understand these things. Although you may be sent to the Prince's mansion as a concubine at first, your good days will come when the Prince ascends the throne."

Miss Wang leaned against Madam Wang, her face full of coquettish charm, "Mother, I understand..."

The mother and daughter were completely oblivious to the fact that Lu Yanzheng was still away on a campaign and they didn't know when he would return; they were simply lost in their own daydreams.

The mindset of the Wang family mother and daughter was actually the same as that of the powerful and wealthy families in Yukang Prefecture who had daughters of marriageable age. Because of Lu Yanzheng's actions, the marriages of those girls who were originally supposed to be engaged and married were temporarily postponed.

Everyone was watching and actively seeking opportunities to get close to Jiang Qinyu or anyone in the Lu family, all in order to make an impression on Lu Yanzheng and gain a competitive edge in the future.

So, seeing that their approach to Jiang Qinyu was blocked, these people turned their attention to the Chen family and Old Man Lu, and even Lu Yancai and Lu Tianbao were not spared.

Lu Yancai was currently traveling as a merchant. Some well-informed people, unaware of his identity at first, became exceptionally attentive after finding out, showering him with favors and making him uneasy. Lu Yancai secretly wrote a letter to Jiang Qinyu.

Meanwhile, three days later, Xiao Rui finally led his fleet out of Qingfeng Island, at which point the fleet was only a few dozen miles away from the shore.

“Hey,” An Shiqi looked at the fleet that appeared ahead and turned to Xiao Rui to ask, “Master, do you think that’s that old scoundrel Su Ziyu up ahead?”
