Return to Lotus Flower Village, Family Reunion

Shadow Six looked at Yan Jiuchao, who was resting with his eyes closed, and smiled. "Don't worry, Young Master has long been guarding against them. The Imperial Court is only helping to mine. The mines we mine belong to the Yu family. Of course, we won't let them mine for nothing. They'll be paid!"

It was only right to give them wages. Even if they went to the commoners to hire engineers, they would still have to spend money. The most powerful engineers in the Great Zhou were all in the Imperial Court. What was safer than using them?

On this return to Lotus Flower Village, Yu Wan had asked Shadow Thirteen to bring news in advance. She didn't tell Prince Yan in advance because their arrival wouldn't put any pressure on Prince Yan. Prince Yan would only be pleasantly surprised, but that might not be the case with the Yu family.
