Jiang Qiling stayed at the Ling Empress City while Lu Li set off to deal with the matters of the Northern Desert. He had a lot to catch up with after being away for such a long time.
He didn't manage every trivial matter but it didn't mean that he was so stupid as to leave every single thing to Madam Yan and Yu Huashen. What if they didn't behave?
He told Madam Yan to arrange Jiang Yi's and Jiang Qiling's accommodation. Then he went to chat with Lu Feixue during the afternoon and then called Ming Yu over to give him some directions.
Lu Li had dinner with Jiang Qiling and nobody else. He didn't worry about Jiang Yi's dinner and asked Madam Yan to entertain him. Jiang Wuwo already harbored some anger towards Lu Li so the latter didn't mind the attitude of the Jiang Family much.
