After the court session, Dugu Wu walked out.
He saw Dongfang Lianhua standing on the side, seemingly waiting for him.
Dugu Wu felt somewhat uneasy. He was usually fearless, but having just quarreled with Feng Bailing made the encounter with his mother-in-law Dongfang Lianhua somewhat awkward.
Dongfang Lianhua, however, was smiling.
"Thank you, Princess Yong'an, for your help this time."
Dugu Wu clenched his hand.
If Dongfang Lianhua hadn't brought over the silver, those members of the royal family wouldn't have given in.
Emperor Yongye had issued a strict order.
Those stubborn old men could only obediently take out the money to supplement the tax of the past four years.
"We are all family, no need for thanks. Tell me, when do you plan to bring Bai Ling back? You can't keep climbing over the wall every day – that's no solution."
Dongfang Lianhua tried to stifle a laugh behind her hand.
Dugu Wu's face turned red, not without embarrassment.
