Upon seeing this, Madam Zhao could not help but look at her daughter in a teasing fashion.

Shen Lian felt even more embarrassed as a result.

As she knew that her daughter was shy, Madam Zhao looked away again.

When she looked at Song Rui again, Madam Zhao sighed.

“Although I managed to survive this time, because of me, you two have gone against the Master’s orders. If the Master finds out…” Her tone was full of worry.

Shen Lian finally couldn’t care less about her shyness and raised her head to look at her mother.

Thereafter, she turned to give Song Rui a glance before saying, “Mother, don’t worry. Father doesn’t really want your life.

“Lord Song has already made the arrangements. He will get someone to send you to Yong Prefecture later.

“Once you reach there, someone will be there to take care of you.”

Madam Zhao looked at Shen Lian in surprise, then turned toward Song Rui.

Song Rui nodded.

“Mistress, you can go to Yong Prefecture without worries.

“When the situation in the capital is settled, 1 will arrange for someone to bring you back.”

Madam Zhao’s heart skipped a beat.

“But on Master’s side…” she said with hesitation.

Before she completed her earlier sentence, she uttered again, “Can I… really come back?”

Her daughter was her only family, and she was already used to life in the capital. Of course, she wanted to come back.

However, if the one who wanted her life was Master, could she really return to the capital as a living person?

Song Rui smiled.

“Of course, you can.

“However, I’m afraid you will have to wait a little longer.”

When he saw the puzzled look on Madam Zhao’s face, Song Rui said, “Mistress should know that it is not the Master who wants your life, but…” Song Rui paused and didn’t continue with his sentence.

Upon seeing Madam Zhao’s expression change, Song Rui added, “Some things will be settled sooner or later. Even if it might take a little longer.

“At that point, not only will Mistress be able to return to the capital, but you will also be able to return in glory.

“Even the Master will be overjoyed when he sees you again and will not have any other thoughts.”

When she heard this, Madam Zhao’s imagination was already running wild.

She thought of the moment when her daughter and son-in-law would her back in glory a few years later.

At this thought, the uneasiness in her heart was gone. Instead, she became more excited.

That was right. She had confidence in her future son-in-law.

After all, this future son-in-law of hers was someone that Master had taken a liking to.

Master said that he would nurture him and make him the next Prime Minister.

When that day came, she, the Prime Minister’s mother-in-law, would naturally return in glory.

Moreover, even Master would have to show her some respect.

At the thought of this, Madam Zhao looked at Song Rui even more kindly.

Then, she nodded at Song Rui.

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble Lord Song,” she said.

When Shen Lian saw that her mother had agreed to go to Yong Prefecture, she heaved a sigh of relief and immediately looked at Song Rui.

Song Rui smiled back at Shen Lian.

Then, he cupped his hands at Madam Zhao.

“Mistress, you’re welcome.

“You can go with ease of mind. I will take good care of Young Miss in the capital,” he then added.

Upon hearing this, Shen Lian’s face immediately turned bashful.

Madam Zhao smiled and glanced at her daughter before looking at Song Rui.

“Mm-hmm.”

“Since Lord Song isn’t an outsider, 1 won’t stand on ceremony anymore.

“Although Lian’er is Master’s daughter, she doesn’t have an official status.

“In the future, we will rely on Lord Song’s protection.”

Song Rui raised his eyes to look at Madam Zhao.

Then, he cupped his hands again to indicate that he had taken note.

Madam Zhao revealed a satisfied expression.

“Once I arrive in Yong Prefecture, 1 will pray for you two every day and ask Bodhisattva to bless you two to have everything go smoothly,” she continued.

Shen Lian’s eyes sparkled when she heard this.

“Mother…” she called out and grabbed Madam Zhao’s arm.

Madam Zhao looked at her daughter and patted the back of her hand.

“Don’t be sad.

“Didn’t Lord Song say so? I’ll be back sooner or later.”

As she spoke, Madam Zhao smiled and glanced at Song Rui.

“Who knows? By then, your children will be all grown up.

“It’s just a pity that 1 can’t help you take care of your children.” At this point, Madam Zhao’s eyes were filled with a little disappointment.

When she left this time, she would probably not be able to return in a few years or even more than a decade.

At that time, even if she came back, things would probably be different.

Shen Lian glanced at Song Rui shyly, but Song Rui felt depressed inwardly.

He would never have a child with this woman. Even if he could still have children, he would only have children with his wife.

“Mistress, you worry too much. If I have time in the future, 1 can arrange for Young Miss to go to Yong Prefecture to visit you.”

As soon as he said this, the faces of the mother and daughter lit up.

“Really?” Madam Zhao asked.

Song Rui smiled and nodded.

Madam Zhao became even more pleased with Song Rui instantly

She kept chatting with Song Rui for quite a while until the maidservant brought her tea before she stopped.

After drinking the tea, Madam Zhao felt much more energetic. The strength in her whole body had also returned.

“It’s almost time. Mistress, let’s set off now.

“The earlier you leave the capital, the safer it is,” Song Rui eventually urged her.

Madam Zhao looked at Shen Lian.

When she saw Shen Lian nod at her, she got up from the bed.

Then, she sighed and said to Song Rui, “Let’s go.”

Song Rui quickly led the way.

Then, together with Shen Lian, they led Madam Zhao onto the carriage.

Under the night sky, the horse carriage left the courtyard and quickly disappeared into the alley.

When he could no longer hear the horse carriage, Song Rui looked at Shen Lian.

“Young Miss, you should also go back quickly. Take care that you are not discovered,” he said.

As she looked at Song Rui’s handsome face, a look of reluctance flashed across Shen Lian’s eyes.

“Mm-hmm,” she responded.

Following that, she bowed to Song Rui courteously.

“Then I will take my leave first.” As she spoke, she brought the maidservant into the remaining horse carriage in the courtyard.

Song Rui personally sent her off.

After Shen Lian left, he asked the servant to bring him the horse.

Then, he mounted his horse and went to look for Qin Xiaoyao.

That was right. He hadn’t seen his wife for many days, so he had already made an appointment to meet his wife tonight.

He had wanted to go over earlier, but he didn’t expect that it would be dark before he could finish his work.

When he thought of this, Song Rui spurred his horse onward and sped up.

Hopefully, his wife wouldn’t be angry.

When he arrived, Song Rui knocked on the gate.

However, the moment he knocked, Qin Xiaoyao came to open the gate at once.

This time, a look of joy flashed across Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes when she saw Song Rui, but thereafter, she turned around and walked inside.

Song Rui knew straightaway that his wife was angry.

He quickly dismounted and ran after Qin Xiaoyao.

He even grabbed Qin Xiaoyao’s hand anxiously.

Qin Xiaoyao pretended to struggle, but Song Rui pulled her back and she quickly stopped struggling.

“You still remembered to come here? I thought you had forgotten you arranged to meet someone here.” Qin Xiaoyao looked at Song Rui in annoyance.

Song Rui quickly put on a fawning smile.

“How could 1 forget?”

When he saw Qin Xiaoyao looking at him in annoyance, Song Rui said, “No matter who 1 forget, 1 will never dare to forget my wife.

“I was really busy and got delayed.”

Song Rui stood up straight after he said this.

“How about this? 1 will make it up to you, my dear. You can punish me in any way you like, okay?” As he said that, a wicked smile appeared on his face..
