Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

Qin Yu turned his head and glanced at the brothel madam, who had already taken out a heavy wad of silver. He handed the wad to the madam and told her, "You should announce to the outside world that there's been a fire at the place where he and the girl are staying."

The brothel madam naturally understood, and did as Qin Yu said. She also understood the purpose of Qin Yu giving her the money: firstly, to keep quiet, and secondly, as compensation.

How could he dare to deny what Qin Yu said? If he did, he would definitely be in deep trouble, after all, the brothel madam knew that Qin Yu's status was far higher than his own.

More importantly, in this whole world, apart from the king, no one else has any way to fight against Qin Yu.

After that, Qin Yu naturally left the place. Once Qin Yu left, she returned to the princess's residence. The proprietress, just as Qin Yu had said, announced to the public that Hua Yu's residence had been flooded and that Hua Yu had unfortunately died.

The Prime Minister naturally learned of the fire at the brothel. When he learned of it, he was so surprised that he never imagined a brothel could be hit by fire. He immediately sent people to the brothel and found the proprietress.

The proprietress was startled when she saw this person; the princess had just left, and now another person had arrived.

"I wonder what this distinguished guest has to do, or if he would like to order any girls."

This man openly asked the proprietress why the brothel had caught fire, and the proprietress said she didn't know.

The man asked many more questions, and to everyone's surprise, the proprietress answered them exactly as Qin Yu had instructed. As a result, the men believed her and left. Watching them disappear into the distance, the proprietress decided to close the brothel and find a new location.

After all, staying in such a place for so long would probably drive the proprietress crazy sooner or later. She felt she hadn't lived enough yet.

Moreover, the money the landlady had earned over the years was enough for her to move with them. The people who had been questioning the landlady had returned to the Prime Minister's residence and told the Prime Minister everything the landlady had said. The Prime Minister didn't think much of it, and at this point, he felt that it was better for the man to die.

After all, this person knew some of his affairs, and if these things were to get out, the consequences would be unimaginable. In fact, the Prime Minister had tried to bribe Hua Yu before, but Hua Yu wouldn't listen to any advice, so the Prime Minister fed her a slow-acting poison.

All of this is the woman's own doing; she brought this upon herself. If she had been willing to obediently become his subordinate, she would be living a life of power and prestige right now.

Unfortunately, this girl was too stubborn.

More importantly, the Prime Minister's investigation revealed that this young woman was a spy, gathering information about various officials in the court. However, the Prime Minister did not find out who she was reporting to.

"Prime Minister, what do you suggest we do next? Should we continue investigating the cause of this person's death, or...?"

"Unless he was just an insignificant person, and his death was no big deal."

Hearing what the Prime Minister said, the subordinate didn't say anything more. However, he did feel that it was a pity that the courtesan had died, as she was quite famous in the capital.

Qin Yu returned to the princess's residence once again, but it seemed as if she had forgotten something. At this moment, Qin Yu suddenly remembered that she had not told Mo Yun to return to the princess's residence.

"Damn it, I actually forgot about Mo Yun."

Qin Yu found Lin Ruohua, and as soon as Lin Ruohua arrived in front of Qin Yu, she asked what instructions Qin Yu had. Qin Yu naturally told Lin Ruohua everything. "I need you to do something."

Lin Zuohua told Qin Yu without hesitation. Qin Yu could have just said it directly, but she never expected Lin Zuohua to say it so directly.

He then informed Lin Ruohua, asking her to go to the Shadow Hall and tell Mo Yun that everything was settled and to return to the Princess's residence.

At this moment, Lin Ruohua's lips twitched slightly, indicating that Qin Yu had forgotten about Mo Yun's existence.

However, I just saw Qin Yu bring back a girl. The girl's condition is quite serious. I wonder who Qin Yu brought back.

Inside the Shadow Hall, Mo Yun had been waiting for Qin Yu's return, but to his surprise, it was already almost dark and Qin Yu still hadn't returned, causing Mo Yun some worry.

The leader of the Shadow Hall noticed that Mo Yun had been standing there for a while. "Princess, could it be that you've forgotten about me since you returned to your residence? If so, it's getting late, why don't you rest here for the night and go back tomorrow? What do you think?"

Unexpectedly, Mo Yun directly refused the Shadow Hall Master. The Shadow Hall Master was truly surprised by Mo Yun's stubbornness.

Upon careful consideration, Mo Yun's stubbornness has its reasons.

"The position of hall master will eventually belong to you; it's just a matter of time. Since you are unwilling to accept it now, I will not force you."

The Shadow Hall Master couldn't help but bring up the matter again. Mo Yun understood, but he didn't really want to manage the Shadow Hall's affairs during this period.

Moreover, Mo Yun actually hopes that the person in front of him can be managed well, so that the hall master will have something to do and will not have any wild thoughts, and the hall master can live a little longer.

This is why Mo Yun refused the offer.

"There's one more thing I forgot to tell you: while you become the hall master, Lin Ruohua will become the deputy hall master of the Shadow Hall."

Mo Yun said that he doesn't really care about such things.

"For me, all I want is to stay by the princess's side and protect her."

Suddenly, they heard a rustling sound, and the two of them immediately became alert, having no idea who was coming. At that moment, Lin Ruohua landed safely in front of them.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Ruohua.

"Ruohua, why are you back?"

"Mother, I've come to deliver a message."
