"These ten secrets?"
Su Nan stroked his beard, nodded, and smiled: "Not bad."
Lu Xingjian's thoughts were interrupted by their conversation. He pondered the words "Do not be greedy for victory, enter the territory slowly" and stood up to bow to Su Nan.
"Thank you for your guidance, Uncle."
Su Nan paused for a moment, then politely returned the greeting: "I dare not accept such a compliment."
Su Wanying blinked, feeling quite surprised.
The emperor, high above all others, refers to his second uncle as "little nephew"?
However, she still remembered her sister's instructions and said respectfully:
"Dinner has been prepared in the backyard. My sister said it's time for everyone to go home and have a family reunion dinner."
Su Nan then saw Lu Xingjian off at the door, and after watching him get into the carriage, she went back to close the gate.
Lu Xingjian lifted the carriage curtain with his slender fingers, looked at the tightly closed gate of the Su family, and pursed his thin lips into a thin line.

Lu Xingjian threw down the carriage curtain he was holding and coldly uttered two words: "Return to the palace."
The weather was unusually cold, and Steward Li became a bit more talkative.

Lu Xingjian remained silent for a long time before giving the order: "Go to the Yu family."

Just as the carriage started moving, another carriage came from the opposite direction and stopped directly in front of the Su family's house.
A girl in red stepped down from the carriage and ordered her attendants to bang on the door.
"Su Wanwan, come out here!"
"The debts we owe should be repaid!"
Lu Xingjian stopped the carriage, got out, and walked behind the girl in red: "What debt do you owe?"
The girl in red stiffened for a moment, then turned around and rushed towards Lu Xingjian, her expression a mixture of surprise and delight.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing here? Did you come looking for me?"
