Du Wanqing softened her voice and said, "Mother has waited upon me for so many days, and I too cannot bear to let Mother leave. However, the days ahead for me in this mansion will become increasingly difficult. Mere loyalty isn't enough, Mother; you also need courage and stratagems. Otherwise, a single misstep could mean losing everything. By that time, not to mention the wealth and honor I promised you being gone, even your old life could be taken from you under the crime of abetting tyranny. Decide for yourself what to do!"
Old Lady Zhang was frightened, nodding her head like a chicken pecks at rice, she said, "From now on, this servant will definitely not fret and cause the Young Madam to become angry. Whatever the Young Madam instructs, this servant will do. By the way, Young Madam, what is our next step?"
Du Wanqing said with a cold smile, "Help me find out where that Young Madam's manor is. I will find an opportunity to pay her a visit!"
"Yes!"
