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

Liang Yueru's maid Hongshao brought her a letter.

"Miss, this letter was sent by Miss Qianxi's maids Caiping and Caiyun. They said that the letter contains a method to get rid of the Qinghe County Lady. You will be very happy after reading it."

"Oh?" Liang Yueru raised her eyes, looked at Hongshao in confusion, and reached out to take the letter.

I saw that the handwriting on the letter was extremely ugly. It must have been written like that on purpose to hide the strokes of his or her hand.

It seems that the writer was very cautious.

The letter reads:

[Duke Liang or Miss Liang Yueru, you and I have a common enemy, the Princess of Qinghe County. I will tell you a way to get rid of her.

The Princess of Qinghe County was under a curse that she could not beat or kill women. Once she attacked a woman, she would be retaliated against, and in serious cases, she would be killed.

Therefore, when you assassinate her, you can send some female killers to mix in with the killers, so that she will not dare to attack women.

In order to prevent her from seeing that you know her weakness, do not send all female assassins, but a combination of men and women. Waiting for your good news. 】

After reading the letter, Liang Yueru's eyes flashed with surprise. She said to Hong Shao, "Go and call Cai Ping and Cai Yun in quickly!"

"Yes, Miss," Hongshao responded respectfully and turned to leave.

Soon, Caiping and Caiyun were brought in. They knelt in front of Liang Yueru in surprise and joy, "Caiping/Caiyun greets Miss Yueru."

Liang Yueru frowned slightly, looked at the two of them with some disdain and said, "Tell me about the person who gave you the letter."

Caiping and Caiyun looked at each other.

Cai Ping spoke first: "The messenger was a woman wearing a long veil. We couldn't see her face and figure clearly. Moreover, her voice was deliberately changed."

"Yes," Caiyun agreed immediately, "She said that many women from noble families in the capital have set their sights on the brave young general, and she is one of them. The Princess of Qinghe County is blocking her way. Only by getting rid of the Princess of Qinghe County can she have a chance to ascend to the throne. She and the Liang family have a common enemy."

Liang Yueru leaned back in her chair and asked solemnly, "Is that all?"

"Well, that's all. We didn't miss a word," Caiping and Caiyun nodded in unison.

Liang Yueru nodded indifferently, "Okay, you can go down."

Caiping and Caiyun stood still, both looking hesitant.

"Anything else?" Liang Yueru raised her eyes and looked at the two of them impatiently.

Cai Ping bowed and said respectfully, "Miss, we have made a small contribution. Can you let us stay in the Duke's Mansion? We can do anything you ask us to do. Please don't kick us out. We don't have a contract to sell our bodies, so we have nowhere to go."

Liang Yueru glanced at the two of them and said to Hongshao, "Take them to the West Courtyard to settle down, and they will be the maids in the mansion from now on."

"Yes," Hong Shao responded, turned around and said to the two of them, "Come with me."

Caiping and Caiyun used to be first-class maids beside Liang Qianxi, but now they have become servants in the mansion. They don't even have the chance to see Miss Qianxi. They are both very dissatisfied, but dare not show it.

After all, even if they didn't stay in the Duke's Mansion, the Duke's Mansion would not sell them indentures, so it would be better for them to stay here. At least they would have a place to live and food to eat.

Liang Yueru immediately took the letter to the study to find Duke Liang. After reading the letter, Duke Liang was skeptical, "You don't talk about strange things, supernatural powers, or anything like that. Is there really such a thing as a curse in this world?"

Liang Yueru said: "There are all kinds of strange things in the world. We can try it out. If the widow really can't beat or kill women, it will be easy to get rid of her."

"Hmm," Duke Liang nodded, looked at the letter in his hand again, and said doubtfully, "Although I don't know who wrote the letter, but the person who knows such a secret of Qinghe County Princess must know her very well. Could it be that someone around Qinghe County Princess betrayed her?"

Liang Yueru went over the people around Princess Qinghe in her mind, and judging from their appearance, she really couldn't tell that there were any traitors.

She touched her chin and said, "It's hard to say. No matter who it is, this secret can only benefit us and has no harm."

Duke Liang nodded and said, "Don't act rashly. If you want to kill that woman, you have to wait until she leaves the imperial capital. I will go to the palace in a few days to discuss this with your aunt."

"Okay, I'll follow everything father arranges," Liang Yueru said respectfully.

Concubine Liang Shufei has not had a good time these days.

Ever since Prince Yi went to see the emperor that day, the emperor has not seen Concubine Liang Shufei for several days.

Concubine Liang Shu took the initiative to ask for a meeting, but the emperor refused to meet her. Instead, he stayed at Concubine Luo's place for several days.

Concubine Liang suspected that the Emperor despised her because she was old and ugly, and was seduced by the vixen Concubine Luo.

Luo Fei was only eighteen years old and had an extremely beautiful appearance, which was the most charming time for a girl.

Today, the Emperor finally summoned Concubine Liang Shufei, but asked her to make a Bull Demon King mask on the spot.

After not seeing him for a few days, the emperor looked increasingly haggard, and even his majestic dragon robe could not hide his increasingly sagging cheeks and dejected look.

Concubine Liang Shu was shocked.

What does the emperor mean by this? Why did he suddenly ask her to make the Bull Demon King mask?

Seeing that she was sitting still, the emperor said slowly, "These days, I always think of the day when we first met. That Lantern Festival was very beautiful. For many years, I haven't seen my beloved concubine making the Bull Demon King mask. Concubine Shu, I have prepared all the materials for you. You can start now."

Concubine Liang Shu looked embarrassed, but she quickly covered it up and smiled tenderly, "Your Majesty, I have been doted on by you for so many years that I have forgotten how to make the Bull Demon King mask."

The emperor stared at her for a long time, then said calmly, "I am so busy that I haven't practiced for so many years, but I still remember clearly the first time we met at Crescent Bridge. I can even remember clearly how to make the Bull Demon King mask and the Pig Head Lamp."

Concubine Liang Shu looked aggrieved, and tears quickly fell. She knelt down in front of the emperor, hugged his legs, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault. When I was still a young lady, the maid in the mansion made the Bull Demon King mask with me. It was not made by me alone."

The emperor looked down at her coldly, with a hint of impatience between his brows: "Let go, don't touch me."

Concubine Liang Shu was slightly startled.

Over the years, the emperor had never spoken to her in such a cold manner. Even when he was very angry with her, there was still love in his eyes for her. But just now, the emperor's eyes were terribly cold.

What's going on, Your Majesty?

Did the emperor know that it was she who plotted against Wei Ruochun back then?

But the only people who knew about this were her, Wei Ruochun and the nanny who asked Wei Ruochun for the mask. The nanny had been executed by her long ago.

And that woman Wei Ruochun pretended to be noble and proud. She never mentioned this matter to the emperor until her death. How did the emperor know about it?
