Because the carriage carrying Li Fuyin closely followed Zhao Yuxue's elite troop, the return journey to the capital was extremely smooth, without encountering any trouble.
However, after entering the city, Li Fuyin intentionally slowed the carriage down, separating her entry from Zhao Yuxue's troop. This would save her a lot of trouble, preventing outsiders from thinking that the Marquis of Yongan's Estate had any connection to the General Zhao Manor. She certainly didn't want to give the Marquis of Yongan an opportunity to cozy up to the Zhao Family.
Upon returning to the estate, Li Fuyin handed the medicinal herbs she brought back to Lingyu, instructing her to brew the medicine according to the attached prescription. At the same time, she gave Lingyu a string of Buddhist prayer beads. The beads were made of brown sandalwood, with characters carved onto each bead that could only be seen upon close and careful inspection.
