Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Xiang Wan quietly withdrew and soon slipped back through the side gate to report to Li Leru in a low voice.

"Are you sure you didn't see any gifts from the Yang family?"

"I'm sure. Granny He, who was in charge of the gifts, was a kind person. She saw that I only wanted to look at the gift list to broaden my horizons, and she didn't make things difficult for me."

Li Leru hesitated and asked, "Is it possible that it's in the hands of her maid?"

Xiang Wan was glad she had asked beforehand; otherwise, she would have been told she was a "useless piece of trash."

"Your Highness, Miss Yang only brought one maid with her into the manor, and her hands were empty."

"That shouldn't be the case. Given the relationship between His Highness and Yang Jianwu, he would have to prepare a gift. Could it be something he would personally wear?"

Outsiders were unaware of their relationship, and only assumed, as rumored, that Yang Jianwu was Qifei's adopted daughter, equivalent to Mo Yu's sister.

But the Li family was different. Prime Minister Li had been keeping track of the princes' movements and was quite puzzled by the Seventh Prince's friendship with a disfigured woman.

Although there is no conclusive evidence of a relationship between the two, judging from His Highness's attitude towards Yang Jianwu, it is clear that His Highness is at least fond of her.

"Your Highness, many young ladies here today are eager to enter the palace. If it were a personal item, they would be drowned in gossip."

"Did no one see you?"

"Your Highness, rest assured, now we just need to wait for the gift-giving ceremony to begin."

"Ah."

Li Leru casually waved to Xiang Wan, who then stepped aside.

There were many young ladies present who were acquaintances of His Highness, and their feelings for him were obvious to them.

If they knew that His Highness had such a close friend, how could they not be curious about what gift he would give?

Li Le continued sipping her tea as if nothing had happened. She had promised to behave herself at the wedding, and if anyone else caused any trouble, it was none of her business.

When it comes to gift-giving with close friends, how can you give a gift if you don't even have a gift prepared?

The master and servant thought they were being discreet, but little did they know that their every move was being watched by the secret guards.

As the groom, Mo Yu naturally couldn't concern himself with such matters. Before the wedding, he ordered that any unresolved issues should be reported to Prince Ning for a decision before the ceremony ended.

Mo Ye is Yang Jianwu's legitimate senior brother, a true family member. How could he not share news with her?

Yang Jianwu glanced at Li Leru, who was sipping tea in the corner, and pursed her lips.

"She's a real parasite, she's everywhere."

"Should we restrain the master and servant?"

"No way, she finally mustered up the courage to act, we have to give her a chance."

Mo Ye frowned slightly. His relationship with Mo Yu wasn't very deep. He was only helping out at the Seventh Prince's residence because of Xiao Wu'er. If something went wrong, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.

"How could you bear to ruin the wedding you personally planned?"

Yang Jianwu said nonchalantly, "It's not my wedding, why should I care so much? Besides, what can she do by looking at the gift list? She's just trying to sabotage things. If she can come up with something else, I might think more highly of her."

"Aren't you concerned about what message she sent through the maid?"

"Don't tell me, it wouldn't be fun if we knew beforehand."

"Um...Isn't Nalan Lianyi your sworn sister?"

"So what? She's married into the royal family, so she's destined to face these situations. Maybe the unexpected will turn into a pleasant surprise. This is just a small test."

Oh dear~ I haven't even watched 'Palace Intrigue' yet, so don't meddle in my business!

Mo Ye was completely bewildered.

"Domestic power struggles?" Is that what he meant?

Unable to understand women's thoughts, I stopped guessing.

"According to your."

Yang Jianwu was so excited she couldn't stop smiling. She was really looking forward to it and eagerly awaited the show.

The meticulously planned wedding continues in full swing.

The initial purpose of adding the gift-giving segment for close friends was to allow guests to offer a few words of blessing when presenting their gifts.

On one hand, she wanted to provoke Li Leru, and on the other hand, she hoped that Lianyi and Moyu could receive blessings, so that her carefully planned scheme would not have been in vain if the fake story became real.

The people present were indeed very supportive, bringing good things as if they were free, and showering them with compliments.

……

Hongyun had his servant select a few rare items to display on stage, which he then sang along with a blessing.

"Princess Jinling presents a gilded double happiness character, wishing Your Highness and Princess a love stronger than gold, wealth that can be moved by gold and stone, and a life of brilliance and splendor!"

The gleaming gold "囍" character standing on the tray exudes luxury.

"As expected of the county princess, she is very generous."

"That's right, the county princess's father is the richest man in the capital, so the gift he sent was naturally very valuable."

"Master Jin can no longer be considered the richest man. Huashuiyuefang has opened all over Dongli, and I heard that it also has branches in Xipan and Nanyue. Shouldn't the richest man be the owner of Huashuiyuefang?"

"If you ask me, it should be Jubaozhai! Don't underestimate Jubaozhai just because there aren't many branches in Dongli. Every single one is a gem, and each one has its own prized possession!"

"Suyan Pavilion is not bad either; it has opened quite a few branches in Dongli in just a few years."

"In that case, Mr. Jin is indeed not good enough."

"Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; at the very least, it's still better than us."

Mu Jin listened with amusement, thinking that all of them belonged to her young lady!

Master Jin was indeed the richest man in the capital. Perhaps because of the rumors about Feng Nu, Prime Minister Li always managed to find fault with the Jin family.

A few years ago, the Jin family was almost wiped out, but thanks to Miss's intervention, she now receives a share of the Jin family's business and can be considered half a master of the family.

Needless to say, the others are even more numerous.

Yang Jianwu noticed that Mu Jin was a little excited and pressed her hand down.

"low profile."

Mu Jin leaned close to Yang Jianwu's ear and whispered, "Miss, everyone will be shocked if they knew these are all your properties!"

"Stunning is certain, trouble is also certain."

"Miss is so capable, she can solve any problem!"

"I'm not afraid of trouble, but too much trouble is really troublesome."

People die for wealth, birds die for food; any one of these industries could make a fortune.

Not to mention that they all share the same owner, so someone will definitely be envious and take action.

It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. How can one achieve the ideal of roaming freely in the world if one is constantly on edge and guarding against others?

That's not the life she wants.
