Chapter 168; This is better
The day before her haircut ceremony, she finally figured out all the blueprints she had thought about.
After packing everything up, he left the study and immediately asked Qiu Shuang if there was anything going on at home recently.
She was so busy that she didn't care about anything.
These days, except for the day when the Lu family moved to their new home, she was always in the study.
"Everything is safe in the house."
After everyone in the Lu family moved away from the village, only the servants and the master Lu Yaoyao were left.
She also left all the business matters to her two uncles, so there were no guests coming to the house on weekdays, so naturally nothing would happen.
"By the way, I forgot to ask, what's going on with Xu Zhao and Gao?"
"Xu Zhao has already dealt with it, right?"
Qiu Shuang nodded quickly and said, "It has been dealt with. I personally handled it with Ding Yuan. There is absolutely no problem."
"As for the Gao family, now she and the Xu Qingqing siblings have returned to the Gao family."
"Going back?"
Lu Yaoyao was startled.
But then he thought of something, nodded and said, "Going back is inevitable, so what's her situation now?"
"Very bad."
"Although you gave her the antidote, the toxin still severely damaged her vitality. She may be bedridden in the future."
"That's good. She can't die yet."
Lu Yaoyao nodded, this Gao family could still be of great use to her.
"Is there any further news from the Gao family?"
"When the Gao family was released earlier, the Gao family arranged for many people to investigate, but Zhao Hu's arrangements were very good and did not leave any traces of Tan Mo."
"If nothing is found, they will leave it alone."
She had already made arrangements before, and as long as there were no problems on Zhao Hu's side, the Gao family would not be able to investigate anything.
"What's going on over there with Gu Jian? Why is there still no movement after so long?"
She had asked Qiu Shuang to contact them more than half a month ago and asked him to bring people to Beijing.
"Gu Jian sent a message earlier, saying that something happened over there in Jiangdong, and he will probably be back in the next two days."
"Something happened in Jiangdong? What happened?"
Gu Jian's people have always been on the Jiangdong side. Firstly, there were so many people that it was not very convenient to stay in the suburbs of Beijing. Secondly, she was not at ease even if the Lu family was on the Jiangdong side.
The idea of arranging for them to go there was to secretly take care of the Lu family.
Now that she heard that something happened to Jiangdong, she didn't think much about it. After all, her grandfather and uncle were in the capital now, so there was nothing to worry about.
"When he arrives, let him come to see me. As for the people under his command, they will be temporarily arranged on the farm."
"By the way, construction should have started on the farm, right?"
"Yes, Lao Kang received news two days ago that he has begun to build a soap making workshop according to your instructions."
Lu Yaoyao nodded.
"After tomorrow, let's go back to the farm."
At noon, just after lunch, Zhao and Yuan came to discuss matters related to the hairpin ceremony tomorrow.
Because Lu Yaoyao didn't plan to invite anyone, this was quite troublesome, and everything had already been prepared.
"During this period, I have troubled my two aunts."
"Hey, what are you talking about? What's the trouble?"
"We are a family."
The two chatted for a while and then went to check tomorrow's things. After confirming that there was no problem, the two did not stay around for long.
After all, there are still many things for the two of them to deal with in the Lu family.
After seeing off the two of them, Qiu Yu returned to Fulinyuan and sat down. Qiu Yu got news from the concierge outside that Yan San from Prince Jin's Palace had arrived.
"Invite him in."
After a while, Yan San came to Fulinyuan, carrying several gift boxes wrapped in red satin.
"I've met Xiangjun."
"No need to be polite, why are you here?"
"I'm here to help my prince deliver a gift."
Lu Yaoyao raised his eyebrows.
"Tomorrow, my prince will not be able to come to Xiangjun's hairpin ceremony, so he ordered me to come over first to give Xiangjun a gift."
"Can't come? Is there something wrong with him?"
"Recently, the eldest prince often goes to the palace. From time to time, he will mention Xiangjun, and he will criticize him in his words. Tomorrow, he will invite the prince to visit again, so."
She had already drawn a clear line with the eldest prince, and it was impossible for her to continue walking around. Besides the rumors last time, the eldest prince was working hard behind her back, so naturally he would not say anything good about her.
The situation of King Jin is quite embarrassing. The eldest prince already has this attitude. If he comes here, he will definitely cause dissatisfaction there.
By then, his situation in the royal family will be even more difficult.
"I understand, thank your prince for me."
"Your Majesty, he is definitely very sorry for Xiang Jun. He said that he would ask Xiang Jun to apologize to him someday when he has time."
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Yaoyao was not angry. King Jin allowed Yan San to come over to give gifts and said such words, which proved that he had her as a friend in his heart.
It's just that I can't help myself.
"I'll take my leave now."
"Qiu Yu will send the Yan guards for me."
The autumn rain receded in response.
"Miss, isn't this eldest prince too classy?"
"You gave him a chance back then, but he didn't know how to take advantage of it. Now it's your fault."
Regarding Qiu Shuang's words, Lu Yaoyao just shook his head and smiled, not caring at all.
What troubles her the most is trouble, and in ancient times, the most troublesome and dangerous thing is the royal affairs.
Had it not been for the accident, she would have been absolutely unwilling to have anything to do with the eldest prince, or even Prince Jin.
It's good now. If the eldest prince's side is broken, it's broken. Although he feels a little unhappy and has caused her a little trouble, it doesn't hurt, and she doesn't care about it.
As for King Jin, just helping ordinary friends make friends.
In fact, it would be better if he didn't come tomorrow.
After the invitations were sent out, she felt it was inappropriate.
I won’t talk about the Wen family. The two families are family friends and have a close relationship, so I just invited him.
But apart from the Wen family, she only sent invitations to King Jin, which was a bit inappropriate. After all, the eldest princess did not send invitations either.
If King Jin comes, what will people outside say and what will some people in the court think?
After all, she has a lot of things in her hands. Not only can she get great achievements, but she can also accumulate a good reputation in the public eye.
If King Jin comes, he will inevitably be suspected by some people.
So, this is best now.
The next day, early in the morning, everyone in the Lu family came to the Xiangjun Mansion. The two Lu Xiu brothers did not go out today and were busy working in the mansion.
Just after the morning meeting, the Wen family and his party also came.
Near noon, Grandma Wang from the eldest princess's house came to the door with congratulatory gifts.
Although no invitation was given, the eldest princess still arranged for someone to send a congratulatory gift to Lu Yaoyao and the hairpin gift.
"Would you please, Aunt Wang, thank His Highness for me?"
"The old slave will definitely bring Xiangjun's words to you."
After seeing off Nanny Wang, and just as we were preparing to have dinner, the porter came again to report that someone was coming from the palace.
"In the palace?"
Lu Yaoyao quickly stood up and went out.
