Lu Kai advised her earnestly.
"Amang, I know you don't want to go to Shangjing.
Shangjing is just too far. If anything were to happen to you, we'd be too far away to help.
If your father were still alive, he wouldn't have the heart to let you travel over mountains and rivers to such a distant place.
But the Holy Decree has already been delivered to our Yu Royal Mansion.
If you don't go, that's defying an imperial edict."
Mrs. Liu chimed in.
"Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your mother and younger sister.
If you defy the decree, they will suffer along with you."
Hua Manman was completely baffled.
'What in the world are they talking about?'
Jiao Gui grew anxious as she listened.
She couldn't help but speak up.
"Second Master, Second Madam, the Young Master's injuries haven't healed yet. Please don't talk about these things for now."
'What if the Princely Heir gets agitated and runs away from home again?!'
Lu Kai frowned, displeased.
