Having decided that Hongshi and Hongxin will move into the Prince's residence next spring, the Fourth Master didn't announce it to the outside world.
After all, the Banquet of Golden Festival is approaching, and his mind was solely focused on the festival preparations.
Moreover, on the ninth day of the tenth month, the chief steward from Jiangning Prefecture was escorted to the Capital.
During the journey, it turned out that the old lady from the Li Family couldn't endure the hardship and passed away.
Out of mercy, the Fourth Master decreed that matters concerning the deceased would not be pursued further, and they would be given a proper burial.
In the Capital, residences were prepared. Under the supervision of the Ministry of Justice, several families moved in.
Only the servants of the female relatives were left, including two old ladies, one for the ladies and one for the young misses, and one nursemaid for two of the young children.
All others had to be dispersed.
