As soon as he entered Lin Jiang's house, he saw Lu Ze accompanying Lin Jiang to entertain the Lin family's guests.
Lu Ze saw Qi Yuning coming and asked, "You came so early?"
Qi Yuning looked up at Lu Ze and said, "I ran into Song Heqing in the Marquis' Mansion, so I thought it would be a good idea to come to Linjiang to get close to her."
Lin Jiang stepped forward and bowed to Qi Yuning, saying, "It is truly an honor for our humble home to have you, Princess."
Qi Yuning smiled lightly and said, "Congratulations to Master Lin on your wedding. I wish you a son soon."
Lin Jiang laughed and said, "Thank you, Princess Qi."
Qin Feng frowned and hurried to Lu Ze's side, whispering, "The Longyou Inn caught fire, and the Persian envoys all died inside."

Zhao Chong entered the study and heard Uncle Qin's words. He said, "Uncle, what's the reason for not causing trouble?"
Uncle Qin said slowly, "Chong'er, you've come at the perfect time. Lu Ze is trying to find the Persian envoy to expose the opium deal. We can't let him ruin our plans right now. We have to find a way to get rid of Lu Ze!"
Although Zhao Chong wanted to snatch Qi Yuning from Lu Ze, he never thought of taking Lu Ze's life. After all, he was his own nephew. "Uncle, Ze'er is my own nephew. I have to talk to him about the opium issue and will not let him cause any trouble. If he continues to cause trouble, I will put him in jail."
