When Qi Wuyou and Qi Zi had almost finished eating, he took her to the back door of Baiweizhai.

Qi Zi: "What are you doing here?" I just finished my meal and felt a little sleepy, so I wanted to go back and have a rest.

Qi Wuyou: "Go find Aunt Wu. Sister, don't you want to know what Aunt Wu said?"

When Qi Zi heard this, she was no longer sleepy. What's more, she decided to go see the old woman.

Qi Wuyou groped for the stone lion at the door, and with a "click", the secret door in the corner opened.

Qi Zi followed Qi Wuyou in, and soon they arrived at another courtyard.

It is the residence of Yu Shu and Ye Qi.

Yu Shu waited at the door for a long time and finally waited for his turn.

"Your Majesty, Princess, His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time." Yu Shu bowed quickly.

Qi Wuyou nodded and motioned Yu Shu to lead the way.

Qi Zi at the side smacked her lips and said, "Sister, I never knew you had the potential to be a spy."

Qi Wuyou smiled and said, "Sister, don't joke. This was all done by Yu Shu."

Qi Zi looked at the woman leading the way in front and changed her words, "Then you should have the potential to be an empress. You have a keen eye for talent."

Qi Wuyou waved her hand and said, "Sister, please don't joke with me. I can't bear the hardship of being in power."

She is here to be an idler, not to build an empire.

Qi Zi wanted to say more, but then she heard Yu Shu say, "Your Highnesses, we've arrived."

Looking at the iron gate in front of him, Qi Zi was stunned. "You even built a cell here?"

Qi Wuyou laughed dryly twice, "Isn't this just in case of emergency? And isn't it useful right now?"

Of course, the most important thing is that you have money but nowhere to spend it.

Qi Zi curled her lips and muttered softly, "If I had known that you were living such a comfortable life now, I wouldn't have given you so much dowry."

Qi Wuyou didn't hear clearly, "What did you say, sister?"

"Nothing," Qi Zi saw Ye Qi, who was guarding the door, push open the door, and she took the lead and walked in.

Qi Wuyou, who was still standing there, felt that if she had heard correctly, her sister meant to add a lot of dowry to her.

Qi Wuyou came back to his senses and laughed out loud. His sister was hard on the outside but soft on the inside. He must have given her all the things he had in the past.

"What are you doing? Come in quickly." Qi Zi, who was walking in front, saw that Qi Wuyou had not caught up with her, so she called out to her.

"I'll be right there," Qi Wuyou felt so sweet in his heart that he jumped up and down as he ran.

Qi Wuyou and Qi Zi walked all the way to the innermost part of the cell. Xuan Yelan was sitting at the table in "official uniform", He Yun was dressed as a legal advisor and was responsible for taking notes, and Ye Jiu and several others were dressed as yamen runners.

Nanny Wu had her hands and feet tied and was tied to the rack.

Qi Zi and Qi Wuyou looked at each other and asked, "Is this your idea?"

Xuan Yelan said, "Tsk, what else do you think, Princess?"

Qi Zi rolled her eyes and ignored him. It wasn't that she was afraid, but she just didn't want to put Tuanzi in a difficult position.

Xuan Yelan pouted at them and said, "Go over there. Don't let her see you."

Qi Wuyou followed Xuan Yelan's line of sight and saw a wall over there, and Mei Xue walked out from behind the wall.

Qi Wuyou pulled Qi Zi over to take a look, and found that this was a corner. From that direction, they could see the walls overlapping.

There was a small table in the corner, with tea and pastries on it. Even Qi Zi had to admit that Xuan Yelan was very thoughtful.

When they came, Lu Yue was leisurely drinking tea. Seeing them, she quickly asked them to sit down.

After Qi Wuyou and Qi Zi sat down, Mei Xue walked out again and nodded.

Xuan Yelan understood and gave Ye Jiu a look.

Ye Jiu nodded, took out a small bottle from his arms, and walked towards Nanny Wu.

The moment she saw the small bottle clearly, Lu Yue quickly covered her nose.

Qi Wuyou and Qi Zi didn't understand what was going on, but seeing Lu Yue looking nervous, they also covered their noses.

Ye Jiu opened the bottle cap and the sounds of "Ugh" came one after another, echoing throughout the cell.

He Yun had already made preparations, but Xuan Yelan and others caught it by surprise.

Qi Zi was puzzled. Was it really that smelly?

Thinking of this, he loosened the handkerchief that was covering his nose and took a deep breath.

Qi Zi: “…”

"Ugh," he quickly covered his mouth with his handkerchief again. The smell was really strong.

Lu Yue sighed, shook her head and said, "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer the consequences."

Nanny Wu finally woke up, but before she could see the surroundings clearly, a pill was stuffed into her mouth.

By the time she reacted and wanted to vomit it out, it was too late; she had already swallowed the medicine.

She tried to dig out the medicine with her fingers, only to find that she was tied up.

Nanny Wu became flustered and looked around. She saw a man in official uniform behind the gavel table and a yamen runner standing beside them. Nanny Wu became visibly flustered.

With a "clang" sound, Xuan Yelan slammed the gavel, which scared Nanny Wu.

"Wei~wu~"

Two people came and untied Nanny Wu, then dragged her to the middle of the cell and made her kneel.

"Who is here?" Xuan Yelan asked.

Wu was stunned and did not react at all.

Seeing this, Xuan Yelan slammed the gavel again, "Who is in the hall?"

Wu responded, trembling and kneeling on the ground, "I am the criminal, the criminal is Wu."

When Xuan Yelan heard this, he and Heyun looked at each other. It turned out that this Madam Wu really had something going on!

Xuan Yelan asked, "What crime did the criminal Wu commit?"

Wu stammered, "The criminal, the criminal woman killed someone."

Xuan Yelan's eyebrows jumped, "Who did you kill? Confess the truth."

"Kill her. Kill the offender's husband, Butcher Liu."

Mrs. Wu now seemed to be unconscious. It was because Ye Jiu's medicine took effect.

From her fragmentary description, a murder case was pieced together.

It turned out that after Wu married Liu the Butcher, Liu the Butcher found out that she was no longer a virgin, so he started beating her and called her a slut.

Things didn't get better until Wu became pregnant. During her pregnancy, Liu the Butcher no longer beat her often and would occasionally bring her some delicious food to nourish her body.

She felt that this kind of life was not bad, the only bad thing was that she gave birth to a daughter.

Butcher Liu started beating her again, more severely than before. After three months, Wu couldn't stand it anymore, so she put rat poison in Butcher Liu's food and poisoned him to death.

Qi Wuyou felt guilty after hearing this. Why did she also use rat poison?

Later, Wu fled with her child and met her childhood sweetheart Yin Ju on the way, who took her and her child back to Kyoto.

"What about the child? Where is the child?" Xuan Yelan asked.

Wu stammered, struggling to speak. Seeing this, Ye Jiu quickly gave Xuan Yelan a look.

If the Chinese medicine practitioner has strong willpower, he or she can resist the effects of Ye Jiu's medicine. It seems that Mrs. Wu loves her children very much.

Xuan Yelan slammed the gavel, interrupting Wu, and then asked, "The criminal Wu, is that child the current imperial concubine Yin?"

Qi Zi was extremely nervous and held Qi Wuyou's hand tightly.
