The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

Gu Qinghuai bowed to Concubine Liang Shu and said respectfully, "My skin is indeed not tanned by the sun. Even if it is tanned, it will recover quickly. This is the first reason. Second, when I work, I always cover my skin tightly, wear a straw hat on my head and a sunshade scarf on my face, so even if I work outside, I will not get tanned. Third, I accidentally developed a skin-beautifying and nourishing cream. If you keep using it, it will have a miraculous effect on whitening your skin."

Upon hearing this, not only Concubine Liang Shu's eyes lit up, but also the eyes of all the female attendants present lit up.

If their skin could be as fair and clear as that of the Princess of Qinghe County, they would definitely be more beautiful.

Concubine Liang Shu showed a determined light in her eyes. She grabbed the armrests of the chair with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and asked urgently: "Do you still have the skin-beautifying and nourishing cream that the county lady mentioned?"

After all, she is over 30 years old. No matter how she takes care of herself in recent years, her skin is still far worse than before. If she hadn't put on heavy makeup today, she would have been outshined by these glamorous women around her.

Gu Qinghuai said seriously, "There are still one thousand sets. Because the medicinal materials needed to make this kind of facial cream are extremely precious, the price of the nourishing cream is also very expensive, one set is sold for one thousand taels of silver. I am worried that the price is too high and no one will buy it, so I don't sell it in a big way. Generally, I only do business with acquaintances. If Madam Shufei likes it, I will give you a set."

Concubine Liang Shu was overjoyed. She glanced at the guests, then at the emperor, and said with a pretended magnanimous smile, "We still can't let the county lady spend money. I will give you one thousand taels of silver to buy a set and try it out. If it works well, I will continue to buy more in the future."

"Empress Shufei never takes advantage of the common people. She is truly generous and magnanimous!" Since flattery doesn't cost money, Gu Qinghuai is not stingy at all.

Concubine Liang Shu smiled on her face, but in her heart she cursed at Gu Qinghuai.

Humph, I'm just being polite, can't you see that?

The other female guests at the table were also thinking about buying skin care cream from Princess Qinghe after the banquet.

It’s just one thousand and two taels of silver, they can afford it!

Gu Qinghuai was secretly delighted. It was really satisfying to slaughter these fat sheep that were high and mighty.

The emperor's face gradually became exhausted. He yawned and said weakly, "Okay, let's start the banquet. Young General and Princess Qinghe, please take your seats."

Gu Qinghuai and Qi Yuanshuo looked at each other, and walked towards the guest seats side by side.

Soon, the palace maids and eunuchs brought delicious food and wine.

A palace maid in green clothes and with narrow eyes came straight to Gu Qinghuai with a wine tray.

Gu Qinghuai curled the corners of his lips slightly, took out the microbial chip gun, put it in his wide sleeves, and shot at the narrow-eyed palace maid's feet.

She observed this palace maid carefully. The other palace maids all carried trays, placed the food and wine on the table, and turned around and left. Only she went around in circles and walked specifically to Gu Qinghuai's table, and came in front of Gu Qinghuai first.

Moreover, although this narrow-eyed palace maid tried her best to conceal it, there was still a hint of panic in her eyes. As she walked towards Gu Qinghuai, she glanced towards Concubine Liang Shu several times.

Gu Qinghuai was certain that the squinty-eyed palace maid had brought her poisoned wine.

Gu Qinghuai turned the control bracelet on his wrist and transmitted his consciousness to the narrow-eyed palace maid, asking her to deliver the poisoned wine to Liang Yueru.

Although Gu Qinghuai is immune to all poisons, it is a very happy thing to let the person who poisoned him suffer the consequences.

Originally, Gu Qinghuai wanted to send the poisoned wine to Concubine Liang Shufei, but Concubine Liang Shufei had a special person to serve her, and all the food she ate would be tested for poison, so it would be difficult to fool her.

The narrow-eyed palace maid looked dazed for a moment, then really took the poisoned wine to Liang Yueru's table.

Of course Liang Yueru saw the narrow-eyed palace maid delivering wine to Gu Qinghuai, and she thought the poisoned wine had already been delivered. When the narrow-eyed palace maid placed the poisoned wine in front of her, she thought it was just an ordinary drink.

Gu Qinghuai picked up the non-toxic wine and took several sips.

When Concubine Liang Shu, who was sitting on the high platform, saw this scene, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes and she smiled smugly.

Halfway through the banquet, the emperor felt tired, so Concubine Liang accompanied him to the bedroom in Tianshui Pavilion to rest.

After a while, Eunuch Tian came to Gu Qinghuai with a smile and said that Concubine Shu wanted to talk to Princess Qinghe about the skin beautifying cream.

Of course Gu Qinghuai couldn't refuse, so he got up and followed Eunuch Tian to the bedroom of Tianshui Pavilion.

Before leaving, she and Qi Yuanshuo looked at each other.

Qi Yuanshuo's eyes were full of worry, and he told her to be careful with his mouth.

Gu Qinghuai smiled at him easily.

With the micro biochip gun in hand, she can control anyone and there is no need to be afraid.

Prince Yi also clenched the wine glass in his hand, frowning.

The masked vicious woman Liang Shufei definitely didn't come to Gu Qinghuai for the skin beautifying cream, but Gu Qinghuai was not someone who could be easily bullied, so she should be able to handle it.

The other guests, especially the female guests, must have known this as well, and they all looked gloating.

About an incense stick's time after Gu Qinghuai left, Eunuch Tian came again to ask the brave young general to go see the emperor, saying that the emperor wanted to discuss something with him.

Qi Yuanshuo had been worried about Gu Qinghuai, so he immediately followed quickly.

Eunuch Tian led him along a winding, narrow corridor on the water. When they arrived at a pavilion, he asked Qi Yuanshuo to wait there while he went to inform the emperor first.

Qi Yuanshuo looked around and found that there was nothing nearby except the pond water and the shadowy shadows of weeping willows, but no one.

He was just wondering when he suddenly saw a water-red figure falling into the pool 20 to 30 meters away from him. The dress, the hair, the appearance, it was clearly Sister Xiao Huai!

Qi Yuanshuo panicked and was about to jump into the water to save her, but suddenly he realized something was wrong: Sister Xiaohuai could swim!

Although the person in the water had a face very similar to Sister Xiaohuai's, if Sister Xiaohuai fell into the water, she would never be so timid and panicked.

The woman in the water was floating up and down, splashing around and shouting for help.

The voice doesn’t sound like Sister Xiaohuai!

Qi Yuanshuo remembered what Gu Qinghuai had told him, and he stood there motionless, refusing to go into the water to save people.

"Young General, why don't you go down and save Miss Liang?" A round-faced palace maid who was hiding behind a weeping willow and secretly observing said to the eunuch beside her irritably.

The eunuch wiped the sweat from his forehead and said helplessly: "Could it be that the young general saw something? But after Miss Liang changed her appearance, she looks very similar to the Princess of Qinghe County."

"Oh, if this goes on, Miss Liang will be drowned! Go and inform Miss Yueru and ask her to bring people here quickly. I will go and ask the young general to save her!" As she said this, the palace maid trotted towards Qi Yuanshuo.

"Oh my God! This is terrible, it seems that Princess Qinghe has fallen into the water! Young general, please go into the water and save Princess Qinghe! I can't swim!" The round-faced palace maid ran to Qi Yuanshuo and pointed at the person in the water anxiously.

Qi Yuanshuo stood there without moving, just staring at her coldly.

The maid was about to say something when she saw Prince Yi and a group of people rushing over, including Liang Yueru, the Third Prince and others.
