After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

Besides, it was Jin Yuanyuan who was treating. In the past, they were embarrassed to let her treat because she was a girl.

But she is no longer the same as before. What she earns in a month is almost equal to their annual share in Jiuanyuan. Of course, they have to make a good profit from her.

The four of them went to Zhenlou for a meal and ordered all the dishes in Zhenlou. Finally, they ordered breakfast for everyone, which was delivered to their respective homes the next day. Only then did they let Jin Yuanyuan go.

Some are happy and some are sad, but the joy will not disappear. The smile shifts from Gu Xingruo's face to Jin Yuanyuan's face.

Gu Xingruo looked at the bleak account book and became furious.

"What the hell is going on? Where did that rouge shop come from? Why haven't I heard of it before?!"

The servants dared not say a word. Gu Xingruo had a splitting headache and didn't know what to do.

Recently, Zhao Lingzhou has treated her as considerately as before. That's because she gave him all the money she earned. If she stopped giving him money, would he go to Zuo Nana?

She couldn't accept the thought of that scene, and hurried to the place where the whitening cream was made in the back. She hesitated for a while and gave instructions.

"Double the amount of poisonous bamboo. No, triple it!"

The servant was horrified and tried to stop him, "Master, you can't do that. If you double the amount, what will happen if something goes wrong?"

Poisonous bamboo is a foreign medicinal herb that can whiten people's skin, but if the amount is too much, there will definitely be side effects.

It will be poisonous if people eat it, and if the dosage is suddenly increased, something bad will definitely happen.

Gu Xingruo couldn't care less. Zhao Lingzhou's rebellion was imminent, and she couldn't let him down at the critical moment.

As long as she succeeds, the world will belong to Zhao Lingzhou and she will become the queen. She must not retreat at the most critical step.

Zhao Lingzhou was in his study at the moment, plotting a rebellion with his trusted ministers.

"Weapons, horses, and gunpowder, I have already prepared them. In two months, it will be Father's birthday. At that time, all the ministers will come to the palace to congratulate him. I will then poison Father's food. If the imperial physician cannot find the cause, then will be the best time for us to take action!"

If the throne was passed to him, he would spare his father's life, but he would not spare Zhao Junlin.

He had always lived under the shadow of this prince, and he had long been driven mad with jealousy.

We are obviously the emperor’s sons, so why can’t he sit in that position? This time, Zhao Junlin must die!

But before that, Gu Xingruo got into trouble first.

She increased the dosage of poisonous bamboo too much, causing people who used the whitening cream to have a whiter complexion than before, but within three days, their faces would ulcerate and become extremely painful.

She is now trapped in the rouge shop, unable to get out and being cursed at.

When Zhao Lingzhou heard the news, he kicked his servant in anger.

"That stupid woman, how come she can't do anything right!"

The servant who reported back trembled, "Your Highness, then... then what should we do next? The concubine is still waiting for you to save her."

Zhao Lingzhou was in a dilemma. The weapons he purchased arrived today and he had to go inspect them. He didn't have time to save Gu Xingruo.

"I'll go."

Zuo Nai walked up to him at some point and took his arm to comfort him.

"Your Highness, please let me go. I will help settle Xing Ruo's matter. If the other party asks for compensation, I will pay for it. I will never let anyone bully her."

After she said this, Zhao Lingzhou's brows relaxed and he shook her hand in return.

"Then I'll trouble you. She is not sensible. Please bear with her."

The more he looked at this princess, the more he liked her. At least she gave him less trouble than Gu Xingruo.

After Zhao Lingzhou walked away, Zuo Nai went to Gu Xingruo's room and searched for a long time. She found a box of banknotes under the bed. She took the banknotes to Gu Xingruo's shop.

There was a large group of people gathered outside, all looking for the boss to ask for an explanation.

Zuo Nai walked over and paid the silver, because the price was considerable, he felt too embarrassed to make any more trouble.

Hearing that it had gotten quiet outside, Gu Xingruo thought that Zhao Lingzhou had come, and she couldn't wait to push open the door.

When he saw it was Zona, his face instantly fell, "Why is it you?! Where's His Highness? Why isn't he here?"

Her face was scratched by the gang and her hair was messy. Zuo Nai looked distressed and helped her remove the vegetable leaves on her hair.

"You've suffered. His Highness must be very distressed to see you. He asked me to come here because he had something to do. I have sent away all those people outside."

Gu Xingruo didn't like her, so he took her hand away, but he didn't dare to fight again, for fear that Zhao Lingzhou would get angry if they fought again.

"Zhao Lingzhou asked you to come? How did you deal with it?"

Zuo Nai took the box from the servant and showed it to her. "Of course, I used your money to settle it. Each of them gave 1,000 taels, and they agreed not to pursue the matter."

"One thousand taels?! Or take my money?! Is Zana crazy?"

Zuo Nai looked innocent, "It's not me who wants to do this, it's His Highness. He said that you are the one to handle this matter, so naturally he has to use your money to settle it."

Gu Xingruo was so angry that she wanted to go find Zhao Lingzhou to argue, but Zuo Nai's voice sounded behind her.

"You're going to go to His Highness like this. Your face is all bruised. He won't listen to you if you go. Instead, he will only hate you more. Xing Ruo, you should wait until your face is healed before going."

Gu Xingruo touched her face which was covered with bloody scratches and pursed her lips in distress.

Now she has run the rouge shop into this state, and she had a big fight with him yesterday. Her relationship with Zhao Lingzhou has not been good in the past few days. If she meets him in this state, it will definitely make him even more annoyed.

She didn't go to find Zhao Lingzhou, but instead found a doctor to treat the wound on her face.

Before Zuo Nai returned home, he gave his personal maid a look.

The maid did not return home, but took a woman to a remote inn to settle down.

"You stay here for the time being, and return to Dongying Kingdom when the Third Prince doesn't pursue this matter any further."

This person was the woman who grabbed Hua Gu Xingruo’s face.

She was a spy planted by Toei in Tianyuan. A few days ago, Sana contacted her and asked her to make trouble outside Gu Xingruo's rouge shop and smear Gu Xingruo's face.

There was a highly pure poisonous bamboo hidden in the cracks of her fingernails, and the scratches on her face could not be healed.

Poison Bamboo was also introduced to Gu Xingruo by Zuo Nai, in order to make her mess it up and make Gu Xingruo fall out of favor.

Although Zhao Lingzhou would go to Zuo Nai's room from time to time, he was still unable to open his heart to her.

She always felt that Zhao Lingzhou was planning something recently, going out early and coming back late, and Gu Xingruo seemed to know it, but she didn't.

If she wasn't pulled down, she would never be able to get close to him and become Zhao Lingzhou's own.

Jin Yuanyuan was completely unaware of the intrigues in the palace. She looked at Gu Ci with pity.

"Second brother, if we postpone the marriage, Sister Beiyan won't be unhappy."
