Having finished her meal, she leaned on her cane and asked Huang Ying, "Where are Old Master and Third Brother? Have any news been sent?"
Huang Ying shook her head: "Old Master and Third Young Master went to the palace early this morning and they have not returned. There's no bad news from the outside. Miss, please be at peace. The King of Chen has been locked up, we are safe."
But Jiang Ning was not worried about that.
Just as she was thinking, a servant from the front yard came in to report that a chamberlain from the palace had arrived, conveying the Emperor's instructions to summon her and the young lord and lady to the palace for an audience.
Jiang Ning grew wary.
Just then, Jiang Yi rushed in and said, "Third Sister, prepare quickly. It's a summons from the palace, it must be important."
"Did Third Brother come from the palace?"
"Yes, Father is worried about you and specifically ordered me to come back and escort you and the children to the palace."
