Thinking of this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but bite her lower lip.
Nanny Shan also understood and said, "Fourth Madam, ultimately, it's our baseless speculations. If the Old Madam knew, her heart would break."
Mrs. Lu sighed, "I also wish it were just a misunderstanding. But Yuanjing's words are unforgettable for me. I guess the Old Madam feels the same."
Nanny Shan nodded, "After all, it's her own son. Neither Madam nor I dare to believe it, let alone the Old Madam.
In this sense, it's not bad for the Princely Heir to stay a few more years in Shanyu Pass; there's no warfare there."
Mrs. Lu glanced through the curtain into the side chamber, seeing that Madam Wu and Mrs. Xu were chatting happily. She pressed her lips together.
Mu Lianxiao won't stay at Shanyu Pass for decades. If there's truly no warfare, why would the Holy Emperor send him there?
Moreover, truly dying in battle wrapped in horsehide is entirely different from internal strife within the mansion.
