Chapitre 62: The Best laid plans

Banxi Pavilion, Madam Liu's room.

Madam Liu looked over her shoulder as the door opened and her maid, Matron Wang stepped in. She turned around and walked to the tea table a short distance away from the screen that separated the sleeping chamber from the rest of the room.

Matron Wang placed the tray containing the small teapot and cup on the table. "Old Yu at the door reported that Xiaolian's family members are waiting at the side hall".

picked up the cup of tea and brought it to her lips and drank a few sips of the hot tea, " mmm, he did well. Give him a little reward".

"I already did, Madam".

"Good, make sure that nothing leads back to us. Prince consort Zhuo already sent the amount in full, he is quite impatient. I wouldn't give him such a promising stock like Liqiu if the money wasn't good," she smiled as she remembered the coin-filled box that the Prince consort had sent over.
