Su Qingci nodded stiffly. She knew that since Yan Xuanye asked this question, he must have thought it through, and it would be useless even if she disagreed.
…
The next day, at dawn, Yan Xuanye ordered his men to set off and took Su Qingci on the long journey back to Mobei.
Before leaving, Su Qingci calmly asked someone to pack up his old clothes.
At this moment, Yan Xuanye just lifted the curtain and walked in. His tall figure instantly filled the entire entrance.
Hearing her instructions, he glanced over and saw that what she asked people to pack was the clothes she had worn from Shangjing before, as well as some exquisite jewelry and other things.

He waved his hand and ordered the maids in a cold, steely voice, "Throw away all of Madam's old clothes and jewelry. Don't keep a single one!"
Perhaps because he was afraid that Su Qingci would get angry, he then spoke to her in a flattering manner, his tone slightly softened: "From now on, whatever clothes or jewelry you want, I can give them to you."

This was done in a very secretive manner and no one knew about it.
Su Qingci secretly guessed that Lu Guang might send people to investigate the place where the Fengyuan army had been stationed.
If anyone saw that set of clothes and headgear, they could either hand it over honestly and report it to the higher authorities; or secretly keep it and wear it for their own enjoyment; or sell it to a pawnshop or something like that.
Whenever Lu Guang had the chance to see those objects, he could always feel something was wrong.
