Chu Beiyu staggered and almost tripped over the threshold. He turned around with a murderous look in his eyes.

He could just say those words in the Marquis's mansion, but if the Regent heard them, he would be finished.

"Didn't the Marquis suspect the relationship between me and the Regent?"

"I will tell you the truth, and let the Regent come and tell you in person what my relationship with him is."

"You...I was just talking, why do you have to let others know?"

"As the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, you stay in Huichun Hall all day long and show your face. I am just reminding you."

"So the Marquis said something wrong?"

Chu Beiyu’s face was extremely dark, and he hummed.

Ye Qingluo narrowed his eyes into crescent shapes, "My Lord, since you said something wrong, shouldn't you apologize?"

Chu Beiyu opened his eyes wide, regretting why he came here.

"You want me to apologize to you?"

"It's fine if you don't apologize. In that case, my Lord, please keep these words to tell the Regent."

"I just don't know if that prince has my magnanimity. He can solve the problem with just an apology."

Chu Beiyu clenched his fists, "Okay! I apologize to you!"

Ye Qingluo nodded with satisfaction. Looking at Chu Beiyu striding away, she felt a little sympathy for this bastard.

Why go anywhere else but here to cause trouble?

After tonight, the tea will take effect and there will be another good show to watch.

There are so many people looking for trouble every day, but why bother?

And here is Su Wan.

"Second Madam, something terrible has happened!"

Qiao'er ran in quickly from outside. Su Wan, who was resting, picked up the pillow and threw it at the person who came in.

"Get out!"

"Second Madam, it's about the Imperial Concubine in the palace." Qiao'er was trembling with fear. If it wasn't urgent, she wouldn't have chosen to disturb her at this time.

Su Wan opened her eyes and her anger disappeared. "How is it, does the Imperial Concubine like the beauty serum?"

"No...no."

Qiao Er replied nervously, "The Imperial Concubine said she wanted essential oil, but you, Madam, brought beauty serum instead. You are deliberately trying to fool her."

"Essential oil?"

"What is that?"

"It seems to be something with the same properties as beauty serum, but with better effects. Applying it on the face can make people look younger."

"Second Madam, do you remember that Madam seemed to have mentioned this thing? Do you think this matter is related to Madam?"

"Do you still need to ask?"

In order to please the imperial concubine in the palace, she sought help from the Shangshu Mansion and went through great efforts to get the beauty serum. Now, it is a thankless task, and there is also the appearance of essential oil.

"This bitch Ye Qingluo is really cunning!"

"Second Madam, how about we use the previous method again..."

"No! The assassination is not just about that bitch, the Regent is also involved. If my father finds out, he will never help me again."

"If I bring up essential oils again, the Marquis will be suspicious of me."

"Second Madam, I heard a few days ago that a miracle doctor came to the Shangshu Mansion. If the essential oil and beauty serum that the imperial concubine wants have similar effects, perhaps I can ask him to develop them."

"You're right!"

"Go get ready, we'll be back home tomorrow."

Once she has dealt with the Imperial Concubine, she will definitely let Ye Qingluo know what the price will be for playing tricks on her!

The next morning, Ye Qingluo took Cuizhu out of the house.

In the carriage, Cuizhu was worried and looked at Ye Qingluo from time to time.

"Madam, do we really have to give that letter to the Marquis? If it is really related to the general's affairs, then it would be..."

"Don't worry, even if you give him the letter, Chu Beiyu won't be able to gain any advantage." Ye Qingluo said calmly while looking at the scenery outside the car window.

What's more, those letters were forged by her in order to find clues to the token.

"In fact, there is one thing I don't understand." Cui Zhu said hesitantly, "If Madam really wants to do something, wouldn't it be faster to ask His Royal Highness the Regent for help directly?"

"I feel that His Royal Highness the Regent treats you, Madam..."

"Enough!" Ye Qingluo's face darkened and he interrupted Cuizhu with a serious expression.

"Cuizhu, when will you become like others?"

"Relying solely on the power of others is only a temporary pleasure. If you really want to achieve long-term success, you still have to rely on yourself."

She had unveiled the notice and entered the palace, which led to the subsequent cooperation, but people's hearts can change. Chu Beiyu used to be so faithful to the original owner that he almost plucked the stars from the sky.

But the result?

No one is irreplaceable, especially in Ye Beimo's position. Faced with interests and imperial power, who can resist being tempted?

Helping Ye Beimo with his medical treatment is one thing, but it doesn't mean that she has to agree to everything.

"Don't say things like this again."

"Cuizhu, I also hope you understand that nothing is more important than being strong yourself."

Cuizhu lowered her head in shame, "I understand."

As soon as she arrived at Huichun Hall, she saw a man coming forward. When he saw her getting off the carriage, his face was full of smiles.

"Isn't that the housekeeper of the mansion? Why is he here?" Cuizhu was surprised.

"Do you even need to ask? Some people can't wait."

"My humble servant greets the Madam."

Ye Qingluo glanced at him and said calmly, "The housekeeper is not staying in the mansion, why is he here?"

"To answer Madam, I am here to get something on the orders of the Marquis."

"The Marquis said that as long as these words are conveyed to Madam, she will understand."

"Come in with me."

After Ye Qingluo finished speaking, he entered Huichun Hall. When Li Er saw the people from the Marquis' Mansion, he became very alert.

"Madam, this person is..."

"It's okay." Ye Qingluo replied, then went into the inner room and took out a letter from the compartment of the cabinet.

She had prepared this letter earlier and now it finally came in handy.

"Tell the Marquis that the entire letter is here. Keep it carefully and don't lose it."

"Yes." The butler took the letter and noticed that the people around him had been staring at him with unfriendly eyes since he entered Huichun Hall.

If Zhong Huai had taken over in the past, these people would not have dared to do this.

"Madam, I will take my leave now."

The butler didn't dare to stay any longer, especially since there was a tall and strong man standing at the door, his eyes looked as if he was ready to attack at any time.

Only after the butler left did Li Er step forward and hand over a letter.

"Madam, this was sent by Guard Yun who is beside His Royal Highness the Regent. He said it is about the mastermind of the assassination."

It was another letter. Ye Qingluo took it and opened it.

It seems that what happened this time was correct as she guessed. It was Su Wan who took advantage of the power of the Shangshu Mansion to do this.

But Minister Su would never have thought that Ye Beimo would also be in Huichuntang.

Now someone is going to be in trouble.

As for Su Wan, she was severely reprimanded by Shangshu Su as soon as she returned to the Shangshu Mansion.

"Su Wan, why didn't you tell me why Huichun Hall also has a share for the Regent?"
