Meixiang smiled and said, "Madam is truly filial to Lord Ji."
"It's almost time. Go to the kitchen and get some snacks," Jiang Wan said.
Meixiang responded, knowing that Jiang Wan must have something to tell Xiuyu, and turned to leave the room.
After she left, Jiang Wan turned to A Si and asked, "Was someone following you?"
Ah Si leisurely took a sip of tea: "Two people, judging from their footsteps, they should be members of the Imperial Guard."
Jiang Wan nodded. It seemed that Physician Jin's men had already set their sights on Mei Xiang.

He looked back and saw the man turn into the alley behind the teahouse.
"Sister Xiuyu, what's wrong?" Meixiang bit her lip and looked over as well. "Behind that is Qing Shi Lane, which is mostly inhabited by beggars and wandering outsiders. It's a chaotic place with all sorts of people. Let's hurry up and leave."
