Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Zhao Xin reported the news that Qi Qingyao had received an imperial decree to Jiang Yeqian as well as the fact that Lu Yan had also begun packing his bags. After reporting the news, he saw that Jiang Yeqian had also begun packing his bags.

Zhao Xin was so shocked he did not know what to say.

"Your Excellency, you…" 'Why are you suddenly packing your bags? Didn't you already hand over your letter of resignation to the Capital, and Her Majesty the Empress had already agreed to your request? That way, we would have no need to return to the Capital…"

'We should go back to the Zhaixing Administration and focus on their affairs.'

Zhao Xin thought so himself but did not dare to say aloud.

"We're heading back to the capital." Jiang Yeqian hobbled to his closet and threw out some of his clothes without looking back."

Zhao Xin quickly gathered the clothes, helped His Excellency to sit down, and stated he would help with the packing. Jiang Yeqian agreed and while sitting there, explained some details regarding their return to the capital.

Zhao Xin could not help but interject, "You've already resigned."

"I know." Jiang Yeqian responded.

"..." 'If you know then why do you still want to go back to the capital?' Zhao Xin was stunned.

Jiang Yeqian let out a cough, and said, "Can't I go back to the capital after I resign?"

"..." 'It's not that you can't, but why now?' Zhao Xin asked helplessly, "Your Excellency, are you doing this because Lady Qi is going back to the Capital?"

Jiang Yeqian was silent for a while before reprimanding him strictly. "Zhao Xin, it's not that. Let me educate you. Even though I've resigned, the Zhaixing Administration still has influence in the Capital City. Besides, you forgot that our target is Si Jin. Although Si Jin has disappeared now, with his ability being above the level of a grand master, he might just emerge out of nowhere if he was summoned by Qi Qingyao. So, we must follow Qi Qingyao to the Capital City."

His rhetoric was very reasonable. "But Your Excellency, didn't you mention before that you had to stay in Qingzhou City and wait for the real jade tablet to turn up?" Zhao Xin complained in a small voice.

Jiang Yeqian cast a sideways glance at Zhao Xin and said, "If I keep having to stay at Qingzhou City, what's the point of having Bai Mei and the others around?"

Zhao Xin, "..."

Knowing that his subordinate was starting to second guess his intentions, Jiang Yeqian continued even more seriously, "Everything has a different level of priority. My main priority is to investigate Si Jin and Qi Qingyao. I'm listing this matter as the current top priority of the Zhanxing Administration!"

Zhao Xin thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Si Jin had strength above the level of a grand master.

However, there was no explanation for his history. This was highly unusual.

The entire Zhaixing Administration could not find any information about him before now… What a disappointment.

He'd better listen to His Excellency and investigate Si Jin first.

However, if they wanted to investigate Si Jin, they had to keep an eye on Qi Qingyao… She was bait.

…

…

The Qi Residence.

Upon seeing that the packing was almost completed, Lu Yan went to the front hall to have a cup of tea. However, as soon as he entered through the door, he saw Qi Qingyao sitting there in a trance—looking deep in thought.

Lu Yan sat beside her and looked at the rain pattering outside. He asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I was thinking, should I say goodbye to them?" Qi Qingyao leaned her cheek on her palm, her gaze fixed on the spring rain behind the window. The fine yet dense rain fell, adding a dash of humidity and chill to the warm spring.

"They?" Lu Yan was stunned for a second, then immediately caught up to what she was saying. She meant the Qi Family. He was silent for a moment. "Do you want to say goodbye?"

Qi Qingyao's eyes narrowed. "If I leave now, I feel like I won't be coming to Qingzhou City for at least half a year."

"Then go say a quick goodbye," Lu Yan said resoundingly, "Would you like me to arrange it for you?"

Qi Qingyao made up her mind. "No need. I'll depart later and say my goodbyes during the night."

"Are your three children following you back?" Lu Yan asked.

Qi Qingyao shook her head. "I don't want to make things troublesome. I'll just go back alone."
