Ning Shu returned to her own courtyard and couldn’t help but stretch lazily after such an exhausting journey.

At least one problem was resolved during this trip: she no longer had to enter into a marriage with Li Yu.

He would have to marry Lu Mingxuan. For better or for worse, Lu Yuanfan held significant power as a second-rank official responsible for military affairs such as food supplies and weapons.

It would be unacceptable for him to defile the daughter of the Minister of War and not give a proper explanation.

Even if he didn’t marry Lu Mingxuan, it was highly unlikely that he would be able to marry another woman from the Lu family.

However, one unfavorable development was the alliance between Lu Junning and Shen Yichen. With their combined strength, they were virtually unstoppable. No one could withstand them together.

“Phew! Thankfully Miss is safe. The incident at Tiantai Mountain was truly terrifying,” Yuan Xiang expressed her relief.

Ning Shu took a sip of tea and replied, “That’s why it’s important not to wander around aimlessly when there are many people around. Accidents can easily happen.”

“Third Miss! Third Miss!” Mistress Liu hurried over and anxiously examined Ning Shu before asking, “Did your visit to the temple go smoothly?”

Ning Shu shook her head slightly and said, “There were some complications, but I’m fine now. Why did you come? I was about to visit you after taking a short break.”

“I heard from those who went to Tiantai Temple that something happened, so I rushed here to check on you,” Mistress Liu explained with relief.

Mistress Liu then added with concern, “The Madam wanted to smash everything in the house.”

Ning Shu nonchalantly took another sip of tea. It didn’t matter anyway since it wasn’t her belongings being destroyed.

Mistress Liu asked, “Did any of the madams inquire or ask about you while you were there?”

Ning Shu shook her head. “I don’t know. My coming-of-age ceremony is still quite far away. Let me accompany you for a few more years, Auntie.”

As a non-legitimate daughter, she hardly had any presence within the household. Very few madams would be willing to match their sons with a non-legitimate daughter. In most cases, non-legitimate daughters were either married off to other non-legitimate sons or became concubines.

“What do you mean it’s still quite far away? It’s only three or four years from now. If things are arranged earlier, you’ll have time to embroider your dowry at home,” Mistress Liu said.

Ning Shu felt helpless in her heart and replied, “Perhaps someone will come with a proposal.”

After ensuring that Ning Shu was fine, Mistress Liu returned to her own courtyard. The situation with Lu Mingxuan had infuriated Lu Yuanfan, prompting him to summon everyone in the family – children and concubines alike.

Even Lu Yujing, who usually went unnoticed, was also summoned to this gathering.

With nervousness filling the room, all eyes were on Lu Yuanfan as he sat on a chair with a stern expression. He took slow sips of tea while struggling to suppress his anger.

Everyone kept their heads down and dared not meet Lu Yuanfan’s gaze. His face bore stubble and exuded an air of authority that weighed heavily upon them.

Upon closer inspection, one could detect a hint of indifference mixed with sarcasm in Lu Junning’s expression.

Ning Shu and Lu Yujing stood in the back, their heads lowered.

“M-master,” Mistress Yun cautiously called out.

“Ah…” Mistress Yun screamed in fright while others turned pale with shock.

Beside Ning Shu, Lu Yujing trembled and nearly collapsed but Ning Shu grabbed her arm and studied her.

Lu Yuanfan surveyed everyone present before roaring loudly, “Where is Mingxuan?”Googlᴇ search novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

“Where is that wretched girl?” His voice reverberated like thunder through everyone’s ears.
