Luo Jin'an and Lan Ruozhu exchanged letters. Through the letters, the former learned that his brother-in-law had busied himself with expanding his power and territory.
'Ruozhu would have celebrated the New Year with us if he wasn't busy with these things. Now that he's in good health, he can do what he has always wanted.'
Luo Jin'an guessed his brother-in-law was arranging for the army to expand their influence, silently occupying the land.
Right now, Chu Country's internal forces were in pieces, and the prestige of the Emperor and Imperial Court was weakening. Still, the deceased royal's mansion remained safe.
Luo Jin'an also knew his brother-in-law would not allow the mansion to be in chaos for Su Binglan. After all, Lan Ruozhu wanted to protect his sister.
Su Binglan did not know what her husband was thinking as her focus was on the trees. She wanted to find ingredients for cooking later.
