It will take another two or three days for Tang Yuwei to be inspected in Tongzhou.

But these two or three days are more than enough for Jiang Jiarou.

In Yaoyue Courtyard, Jiang Jiarou helped Xue Qingqing, who looked bitter and resentful, back to the dormitory.

Xue Qingqing was unhappy now, so she ordered all the servants to go out, actually so that she could discuss countermeasures with Jiang Jiarou.

"Cousin, didn't you say that as long as Grandma spoke, Father would definitely agree? But what about now?"

Xue Qingqing sat down while grumbling. She felt that this cousin was just so-so and could not satisfy her.

This was exactly what Jiang Jiarou wanted to see. She took the opportunity to sit down across from Xue Qingqing in silence.

"Alas! It's not that there is no other way, it's just that it's too dangerous. Let's just forget it! Qingqing, auntie didn't expect that cousin would protect Yangyang so much."

Jiang Jiarou was fanning herself with a small round fan. Even without looking, she knew that Xue Qingqing was eager for quick success.

"After all, Najia is your father's original wife. I think Qingqing, you should just accept your fate! After all, a pheasant can never become a phoenix!"

"I'm not a pheasant!" Xue Qingqing looked at Jiang Jiarou angrily.

But as soon as he met Jiang Jiarou's eyes, he thought of her current situation.

So he stood up and knelt carefully and obediently in front of Jiang Jiarou.

"Cousin, Qingqing didn't mean to be disrespectful to you, but my father is too partial to that damn girl. Now, no matter what method I use, I will try it."

Xue Qingqing said as she pushed Jiang Jiarou's legs and said coquettishly, "Cousin, please tell your niece what the method is."

Jiang Jiarou was a bit embarrassed, but she couldn't resist Xue Qingqing's repeated requests.

"Come closer, I'll tell you slowly..."

Fangfei Courtyard didn't want to get involved in the conspiracy and intrigue of Yaoyue Courtyard. After Yangyang sent her father away, she felt sleepy and went to bed early.

But in the middle of the night, I heard stealthy footsteps coming from outside the yard.

The man approached and knocked on the door, "Sister Xiaotao, it's me!"

As soon as Xiao Tao heard the voice, she knew who was coming. She gently opened the door and welcomed Biluo in. She closed the door only after making sure that no one saw them.

Xiao Tao lit the lamp and brought Biluo to Yangyang's room. "Is the young lady asleep?"

Yangyang woke up dazedly and saw Biluo coming. He immediately woke up and asked, "Why are you here so late? Did you find something?"

Biluo came closer and told her in detail everything she saw in Huian Hall at night and how nervous she looked.

"Last time, Xiao Tao passed on the news about the young lady and asked me to keep a close eye on the wife of Hui'an Hall. I have been keeping a close eye on her these past few days."

"Nothing else, except that my cousin Jiang came once the other day. I didn't hear the details because she was called away by other servants. I just heard that Madam was very happy to see my cousin and said something like she finally came."

It seems that Yangyang's guess was correct. There was something wrong with the two of them.

"You came so late? What did you find?" Yangyang asked.

"Just now, the Second Young Lady entered Huian Hall alone. I thought that she must be talking about something important at this late hour, so I leaned over to the window and listened carefully."

When he said this, beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Biluo's forehead, as if he was very nervous.

"The second young lady, she killed the lady!"

"What?" Yangyang couldn't believe what she heard, and her hands that were holding the quilt began to tremble.

Xiaotao was so scared that she almost got burned by the wick while fiddling with it.

"Miss, I only saw the second young lady's knife going in and out, blood gushing out, so I rushed over here!"

Biluo kept wiping the sweat from her forehead. Even though she grew up in such a dirty environment, she had never seen anything like this.

Yangyang would never have thought that Jiang would be so vicious as to instigate Xue Qingqing to do such a heartless thing.

What frightened her even more was that

"Xiao Tao, the ring and pendant that the Empress Dowager gave me today, did Madam give it to you after the coming-of-age ceremony?"

Xiao Tao suddenly came to her senses, strode to the dressing table, took out the box containing the white jade rings and returned to Yangyang's bed.

"Miss, when you were kneeling in the ancestral hall, Mammy asked me to put it away. Take a look!"

When the box was opened, the three were stunned to find there was nothing inside.

Yangyang understood, "But the nanny gave it to you in front of everyone?"

"Yes, those women were still there at that time!" Xiao Tao knew she was being tricked, and bit her lip, hating herself for being so stupid.

"Miss, will it?"

The three of them looked at each other, and everyone understood the key point.

"Miss, I will go to Hui'an Hall and bring the ring back to you!" Biluo was brave, but...

"No!" Yangyang calmed down and said, "Biluo, go back now. Don't do anything today. Just pretend nothing happened!"

The only option now is to wait for Tang Yuwei to find out the truth, so he has no choice but to take the risk and risk his own life.

Yangyang then asked Xiaotao, "Xiaotao, I remember you said before that when I was coming of age last year, I had a seizure and foamed at the mouth."

"Miss, how can you still be in the mood to ask this at this moment?" Xiao Tao was only concerned about her worries now.

"But the whole palace saw it?"

"Of course I saw it all," Xiao Tao said.

"Then tomorrow morning you will shout all over the yard and attract everyone to come over, saying that I am having a madness attack again!" Yangyang held Xiaotao's hand and said confidently.

Then he looked at Biluo again, "Biluo, can you jump rope?"

"Miss, I did read about these supernatural things when I was a child. There are many such supernatural things in the village!"

Biluo was puzzled, but suddenly thought, "Miss, I understand. Those people in the village who are hysterical, unconscious, and foaming at the mouth love to find those who perform shaman dances! I can imitate them a little bit!"

"That's great, we'll put on a big show for them tomorrow!"

Everything was made clear, so we waited until the next morning.

Yangyang took out the sachet that Jiang Jiarou had given her that day.

She shook out all the spices inside, and as she expected,

Fortunately, she usually likes to buy various medicinal herbs and spices for medicinal baths, so she knew what the ingredients in the sachet were at a glance.

Without hesitation, he put one of the spices in his mouth and chewed it, and hid the others.

Then Xiao Tao ran from Fangfei Garden to Chenxi Hall, yelling loudly.

"Madam, sir, the young lady is having a mad attack again!"

She had just arrived, and the Left Prime Minister and Old Madam Xue hadn't had time to digest it.

An old maid serving Madam Xue also ran over with a livid face, "Madam, sir, please go to Hui'an Hall and check. Madam, she, she..."

"Can't we just be quiet so early in the morning?" Old Madam Xue said angrily, frowning.

The old woman lowered her head and trembled all over, saying, "Madam, she was killed!"
