Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre

Su Yunling didn't expect that Fu Wanshu would take the initiative to offer to help him manage Baicaotang.

After all, she was a lady who never left the house. Regardless of whether she had the ability or not, the fact that she dared to show up in public was already surprising to her.

"Are you really willing?" Su Yunling confirmed again and again.

"If you trust me, I can do it." Fu Wanshu smiled gently but confidently.

Although she was brought up as a lady from a noble family, she learned the Four Books and Five Classics and the Six Arts for Women.

But she liked doing business, so she secretly learned how to use an abacus and do accounting.

Even the Fu family didn't know that Fengyuelou, the largest restaurant on Yongning Street, was opened by her.

"You said Fengyue Tower is your property?"

Su Yunling was stunned when she heard Fu Wanshu calmly say that she was the boss behind Fengyue Tower.

Obviously, she didn't know this young lady.

But it's no wonder that they get along so well. At least they have two things in common: self-reliance and love of money.

"Yes, from now on, if the Crown Princess wants to eat something, just take my jade token and you don't have to spend money."

Su Yunling thought of Fengyuelou’s signature dishes: lotus leaf chicken, Dongpo pork, Buddha jumps over the wall, crab roe and eight-treasure rice… and swallowed uncontrollably.

In Su Yunling's mind, the temptation of delicious food was on the same level as that of a handsome man. He immediately grabbed her hand and said excitedly:

"Why call me Crown Prince's Consort? That's too strange! Just call me Lingling. We will be sisters from now on."

Fu Wanshu couldn't help laughing: "Okay, from now on you and I will call each other sisters..."

Although Fu Wanshu is not familiar with pharmacology, she has a business mind, and the most important thing is that Su Yunling trusts her.

So she decided to entrust her to help manage Baicaotang during the time she was away from Beijing.

"Let's go and try Fengyuelou's new dishes. You won't be able to eat them for the time being after you go to Prince Su's fiefdom..."

The two girls went to Fengyue Tower together. They had just informed the shopkeeper and were about to go to the private room on the second floor when they ran into Xiao Nanchuan and Su Yueying who were also there for lunch.

Su Yueying was chatting and laughing with Xiao Nanchuan when she was bumped into unexpectedly. She immediately frowned.

"How do you read the road?"

She was about to scold someone, but when she saw it was Su Yunling, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her throat.

She reached out and held Xiao Nanchuan's arm, somewhat like a declaration of sovereignty.

"Second sister, it's you!"

"Aren't these the former prince of the Rui Palace and his beloved concubine? The two of them are now famous people in the capital. Many restaurants and teahouses are telling stories about the two of you! Did you come here to listen in person?"

Su Yunling sneered undisguisedly, which really attracted all the guests who were having dinner in the restaurant to look at them and start pointing and talking.

"Isn't this the former prince of the Rui Palace who favored his concubine over his wife and drove his legal wife away on the day of their marriage?"

Xiao Nanchuan felt ashamed. He glanced at Su Yunling with a complicated look and was about to take Su Yueying away.

But Su Yueying didn't want to just "escape" like this. They were married, so why should she be looked down upon?

She raised her head proudly, looking stubborn and unafraid of worldly power.

"What's wrong with being a concubine? We love each other sincerely and have no regrets. All people are born equal, and love should not be divided into high and low. Some so-called legal wives are just strangers you have never met. Even if you get married, you will not be happy."

After hearing her unconventional remarks, Xiao Nanchuan admired her even more.

The people he likes are so different.

However, Su Yunling stepped forward at an inopportune moment as the two of them were looking at each other, breaking their beautiful fantasy:

"I'm very curious about how you, Aunt Su, have survived to this day? Are you relying on the halo of the heroine? Are you promoting equality for all in the feudal dynasty? Are you trying to challenge the emperor's power and tell the one sitting on the throne that anyone can be emperor?"

Her voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear it clearly, but it was like a thunderclap that made Xiao Nanchuan's face change instantly.

"Let's go, and don't talk nonsense anymore." When he grabbed Su Yueying and was about to take her away, he was blocked by Fu Wanshu.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking the way?" Xiao Nanchuan frowned in dissatisfaction, but after seeing the captivating eyes of the woman in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"I am the...stranger that Aunt Su mentioned."

As soon as Fu Wanshu Qingmiao finished speaking, not only Xiao Nanchuan, but even Su Yueying who was standing beside him was stunned.

The Miss Fu in her imagination was just a plain-looking, dull and boring lady. Who would have thought that she had such stunning beauty.

Xiao Nanchuan's eyes flashed with shame, "Why did Miss Fu block my way?"

"Nothing else, I just want to ask when Mr. Xiao is going to send the divorce letter? I don't want to be involved with a stranger all the time."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanchuan's face was replaced by anger and shame. He reached out from his sleeve and took out a divorce document that had already been stamped with an official seal, and handed it to Fu Wanshu with a sullen face.

"I had planned to send someone to deliver it after lunch, but since we met here today, there is no need for me to make another trip."

Su Yunling cheered at the right time: "That's great, Wanwan, there are so many happy events today, let's celebrate properly."

"Okay! Let's go..." Fu Wanshu didn't even bother to look at Xiao Nanchuan, and pulled Su Yunling up the stairs to the second floor.

Xiao Nanchuan glanced at the two women who quickly disappeared around the corner and felt inexplicably irritated.

Are they so eager to get rid of him?

Is he really that bad?

Humph, she must be pretending. Women always say one thing and mean another.

It's just using superficial indifference to cover up the inner pain, it must be so!

"Young Master, Young Master, something bad has happened to the Prince!" The guards from Prince Rui's Palace came hurriedly to report.

Because of forming a clique for personal gain and plotting treason, Prince Rui has been imprisoned in Taiwan, awaiting trial by the Emperor.

Xiao Nanchuan didn't care about anything else. He quickly grabbed a fast horse and rushed back, leaving Su Yueying doubting her life amid the discussions of the crowd.

When he returned to the vicinity of Prince Rui's Palace, he found that many onlookers had gathered around the palace.

"I heard that King Rui sold illegal salt, embezzled copper and coal, causing many deaths, and even made private dragon robes..."

"What? King Rui is so bold? Which of these crimes is not punishable by death?"

"It's true. It's said that the evidence was found during the confiscation of the family property..."

When Su Yunling and Fu Wanshu were enjoying delicious food in the private room, they heard many people discussing the situation of Prince Rui.

After hearing this, she just smiled calmly as if she had expected it.

Among those evidences, except for the two sets of privately made dragon robes which were perjured evidence by her, the rest were all true.

Xiao Jichen was the one who investigated all the evidence, and it was through this investigation that he realized that Emperor Jing Zhao, his seemingly peaceful brother, was actually full of the stench of greed and viciousness.

Relying on the protection of Emperor Jingzhao, he did many things that were against human life and morality.

Although the things he committed were enough to punish others for dying a hundred times, he was the only brother of Emperor Jing Zhao, so he could not bring himself to do it.

Su Yunling added fuel to the fire and sent two dragon robes to Prince Rui's Palace.

Emperor Jing Zhao could tolerate Prince Rui's evil deeds and oppression of the people, but he could never allow him to covet his throne.

Therefore, King Rui is in big trouble this time...
