Mrs. Shuang snapped out of her daze, pushed away the maid who was applying ointment to her, covered her face, and stood up woefully, "Princess Sister, I was really hurt by the hit. If it ruins my appearance, my life is over."
"Sister, you really are having a tough time," said Lin Jiaojiao, her smile barely reaching her eyes.
Give you a pole, and you'll climb all the way up.
Lin Jiaojiao casually gifted Mrs. Shuang with a few items, then sent away all the unwelcomed guests in the courtyard.
She still had important matters to attend to.
She instructed, "Qingtao, send the guards to seal off Yilan Court. Not even a single ant is allowed out!"
Upon receiving the order, Qingtao didn't question her. She just nodded respectfully and went to execute the orders.
Seeing Qingtao had left, she turned to Xuemei, "Xuemei, prepare the carriage. The Princess will leave the mansion soon."
"Ah?" Xuemei was somewhat surprised, then said, "Didn't the Prince ask you not to leave the mansion?"
