She asked Butler Cheng a few more questions before returning to her own courtyard.
Just as she sat down, before she could even take a sip of tea, Wang Li rushed back from outside. Upon seeing the young lady, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Young lady, news has come from over there that he is preparing to go to the capital."
He is clearly Chen Fan.
The news came so quickly; it seems that the people I arranged have already gotten close to Chen Fan.
Because of this, Chen Xin felt much more at ease.
"Grandmother is at the temple. Have someone keep an eye on her and make sure nothing goes wrong," Chen Siyuan instructed.
