Mrs. Mei suddenly received word: Pei Yan wanted them to depart for Jiangnan at once.
Thinking the Crown Prince was about to make another move, Mrs. Mei hurriedly instructed Nanny Liu, "Go find Ah Yin."
Nanny Liu replied, "Ying's carriage has already left the city. His Highness says we should set out as soon as possible. They will wait for us outside the city walls."
With things so urgent, how could Mrs. Mei possibly delay?
Fortunately, their luggage hadn't been unloaded, so they could leave as soon as the staff was gathered. With Pei Yan personally escorting them out of the city this time, there shouldn't be any mishaps.
Clutching her husband's memorial tablet as she left home, Mrs. Mei couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.
It wasn't that she was reluctant to leave the splendor and riches of the Capital, but she was lost when it came to her daughter's future.
Ah Yin was far too beautiful. No matter where she went, she would be targeted by those with ill intentions.
