”Mengdia, send our guest off for me.” Mrs. Liu looked at Princess Anyang, the Lin Guards and General Zhang meaningfully. The three of them looked at each other for a while before sitting back down.

Liu Mengdia did not understand the actions of the three wives, but just as she was about to ask, Mrs. Liu said: ”Mengdia, you worked too hard to serve me last night, after sending the guests off, you can go back to your room to rest first.”

She felt that Mrs. Liu must have something important to discuss with the three wives, but it was obvious that Mrs. Liu wanted to separate her, so how could she be willing.

”Mother, your daughter isn't tired …”

”You're not tired, but your mother still feels sorry for you.” Mrs. Liu's face showed some displeasure.

At this point, Liu Mengdia clenched her hands tightly and stood still for a long while, before she finally turned around and left unwillingly.

”Huan, close the door.” After Huan closed the door, Mrs. Liu suddenly calmed her weak expression, tidied her clothes, and got down from the bed to pay her respects to the three madams.

The three wives stared wide-eyed at the spirited Mrs. Liu in front of them, casting doubtful gazes.

”Madam, this …”

Mrs. Liu laughed and said: ”If that's not the case, how can I deceive people? All three of your wives are extremely intelligent, so it's not hard to guess the intentions of those people who just arrived. ”

Although she could not understand why the Mrs. Liu was acting this way now, since the old woman's body was fine, she too, heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.

Just then, a person walked out from behind the screen behind Mrs. Liu. It was Liu Ruyan.

Seeing Concubine Hui, the three wives were shocked. They hurriedly got up from their seats and bowed, but were stopped by Mrs. Liu: ”There is no need for the three of you to be so courteous.”

The three of them looked at Mrs. Liu with puzzled eyes. Liu Ruyan walked in front of them, blessed her body and bowed as a junior.

”Fangyi, you can't do this!” Although Liu Ruyan was their junior, she was currently the favored consort of the emperor.

But Liu Ruyan insisted on bowing and refused to get up.

Last night, she had confessed to her mother. With just her power alone, it would be extremely difficult to find her father. Furthermore, Qin Kangtai's men might be involved in this matter, and if Liu Ruyan were to go alone, she would have to face the danger.

If he wanted to find help, he had to find someone powerful that he could trust.

Among those who were on good terms with their father, Liu Yuanzhan, were King Qi, the Lin Guards, and Prime Minister Zhang. The three of them had an objective influence in the imperial court, so if they worked together, they would be able to deal with Qin Kangtai.

If he rashly invited the three of them in, he would definitely attract their attention. If something were to happen to the General's Mansion in the future, it might even implicate the people of the Three Palaces.

Therefore, Liu Ruyan told her mother to pretend to be sick and purposely asked people to come to the imperial court to spread the news. There were already many people in the imperial court who were interested in General's Mansion, so there was no doubt that they came here before to see the true nature of General's Mansion with their own eyes.

The three noble women who were on good terms with him came at the same time as the other women, and they all used the same reason, so no one would think too much about it.

Today, Liu Ruyan would definitely convince the three of them to help. Only by doing this would they have great hopes of finding father.

”The three of you need not refuse. Please accept this bow of mine.”
