Chapter 551: Chapter 542: The Villain

On the evening of May 12th, the Lilac Hall at Rong'an Hall in the Chu Residence was exceptionally lively. Several palace lanterns hanging from above and sixteen large candles on the high table illuminated the hall brilliantly. The men were gathered at one table, drinking, while the women and children were at another, eating; there was no shield to separate them.

At dawn the next day, Lord Hou and the old man would be sent by Chu Ling'an to live in the countryside. Initially, Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu also wanted to accompany them, but Chu Lingxuan had taken office not long ago and many matters were still unresolved, so he couldn't go. As for Chen Afu, she discovered not long ago that she was pregnant, so she couldn't go either.

Today, their children and grandchildren came to say goodbye. Not only the second and third households and Chu Hua's family came, but also Prince He.
