"Thank you for the princess's grace. This old servant guarantees to instruct the young lady well!" Sister Qi kowtowed on the ground.
"Rise," Yang Mengchen lifted her hand, "Later, the princess will send a maid skilled in martial arts and knowledgeable in medicine to serve Mingzhu. You and she need just to take good care of Mingzhu. If anyone from the Hao family tries to harm her, block them and say it's the princess's order. Understand?"
Sister Qi respectfully assented, feeling relieved. With Princess Chen's protection, she believed that the Hao family would dare not slight the young lady. What a stroke of luck for the young lady.
After waving Sister Qi away, Yang Mengchen shook her head to the grateful Lady Nangong, then turned to Sister Duan, her tone calm yet imbued with an innate authority: "Sister Duan, do you know what Sister Lingyao was just about to ask for?"
