The group filed in, passing through the ornately decorated, antique corridors of the Hua Mansion. Various exquisite porcelain pieces and paintings were displayed on both sides of the corridor, and sunlight filtered through the window lattices, casting dappled shadows that seemed to transport them into a beautiful painting. Before long, they arrived at the spacious and bright main hall.

Madam Hua stood gracefully in the hall. Upon seeing the arrival of the guests, she smiled and instructed the servants beside her: "Quickly prepare a sumptuous feast. Today, a very important guest has come to visit. You must be careful and serve him well!" The servants obeyed and left. In no time, they had everything arranged efficiently.

Madam Hua warmly invited General Ning, Ning Yuan, and the Fourth Prince to take their seats in turn. Hua Yu obediently sat down next to Madam Hua, her eyes curiously observing the guests. Just then, a clear and melodious voice came from outside the door: "I am late, please forgive me, distinguished guests."

Everyone turned to look at the sound, and saw a graceful woman walking slowly towards them. She wore an elegant light blue silk dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a fairy dancing gracefully. A light green veil was tied around her waist, further emphasizing her slender figure and captivating beauty. Looking at her face, her dark eyebrows, like distant mountains, were slightly furrowed, as if with a hint of sorrow; her peach blossom eyes sparkled with affection; her cherry lips were naturally red, delicate and alluring. Her exquisite features seemed to have been meticulously sculpted by nature, breathtakingly beautiful. However, her complexion was slightly pale, and her eyes revealed a hint of fatigue, lacking some of her youthful vigor, yet adding to her pitiful and vulnerable appearance.

Hua Xiang quickly sat down next to Madam Hua. Everyone was still captivated by the delicate fragrance emanating from Miss Hua, and hadn't come back to their senses for a long time. Ning Yuan broke the silence first, cupping his hands and saying, "Miss Hua is truly like a fairy descended from heaven. It is an honor to meet you today." Hua Xiang bowed slightly, "You flatter me, sir." After a few rounds of drinks, Hua Xiang suddenly coughed lightly. Madam Hua hurriedly asked with concern, "Xiang'er, are you feeling unwell?" Hua Xiang shook her head, "I suppose I've caught a slight cold recently, it's nothing serious."

At this moment, the Fourth Prince spoke up, "I have some rare medicinal herbs in my residence. I will send someone to deliver them to the Second Miss another day to help her recover." Hua Xiang bowed gracefully in thanks. General Ning looked at Hua Xiang, and felt a faint sense of mystery about this woman.

Hua Yu stared blankly at the stunningly beautiful woman before him—Hua Xiang—for a moment forgetting to breathe. He thought to himself, "These ancient women are truly as beautiful as celestial beings! If I were a man, I'd probably be completely captivated by her too! Look at her delicate, swaying figure—isn't she the epitome of a pure, innocent white lotus?"

Looking at the Fourth Prince Lan Feng, he was clearly also attracted by Hua Xiang's appearance and stared at her blankly. Seeing this, Hua Yu quickly summoned Xiao Zha.

"Hey, you little rascal, help me find out if Hua Xiang had any affair with the Fourth Prince before the female lead married into his household?"

"Okay, host, we are querying for you."

"Host, after a thorough investigation, the truth has finally been revealed! In the previous plot development, when Hua Yu was unfortunately kidnapped by villains, it was the treacherous Hua Xiang who secretly went to the Fourth Prince's residence to inform him. It was at this moment that she secretly colluded with the Fourth Prince and began a clandestine affair. Later, when the heroine Hua Xiang finally died with resentment due to excessive melancholy, she was able to rise from the position of a mere concubine to become the legitimate wife."

After listening to Xiao Zha's detailed account, Ruan Quan couldn't help but curse the shameless man and woman in his heart. How dare they act so blatantly and recklessly in front of the person in question? It was simply lawless and outrageous!

"Oh, right, Little Scum, tell me quickly, how high is Lan Feng's affection for the female lead Hua Yu now? I'm thinking about whether we should use that 'Unwavering Devotion' magic item to try and complete this arduous task as soon as possible," Ruan Quan asked expectantly.

"Host, as of now, Lan Feng's affection for the female lead has reached 35 points. However, to ensure the 'Unwavering Devotion' pill works at its best, his affection for the female lead must exceed 60. Unfortunately, your current affection points haven't reached that threshold yet," Xiao Zha replied truthfully.

“Alright then, it seems we need to rethink some other feasible ways to deal with these two. Little Scum, you're quick-witted, do you have any brilliant ideas?” Hua Yu asked expectantly, her brows furrowed and her gaze falling on the hidden Little Scum to the side.

Little Zha's eyes darted around, and a sly smile appeared on his face: "Hehe, Master, in my opinion, the best way is to ensure that I can complete my mission smoothly, while also making them fight like mad dogs, and most importantly, without affecting us in the slightest. In this way, we can sit back and watch the tigers fight, and reap the benefits!"

"Oh? That sounds good, but how exactly should we proceed?" Hua Yu asked with great interest.

At this moment, Xiao Zha lowered his voice and said, "Host, do you remember the Crown Prince I mentioned to you before? He's the one who tried to assassinate you."

"The Crown Prince?" Upon hearing this name, Hua Yu's eyes instantly turned fierce. "Hmph, I thought he had quieted down for a while, but I didn't expect him to dare to stir up trouble again! But what is his connection with these two? Could it be..." At this point, Hua Yu seemed to have thought of something, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Xiao Zha quickly chimed in, "Exactly! Host is brilliant! We might as well make a big deal out of this. As long as you can find a way to impersonate the Crown Prince's subordinate and then inform him, deliberately sowing discord between them, you will surely be able to successfully provoke this conflict. In this way, we can solve the immediate problem without having to take action ourselves. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Hahaha, you little rascal, I never would have guessed you were so incredibly intelligent! You're practically a rare little genius!" Hua Yu couldn't help but praise. Then, changing the subject, she continued, "But if you're going to impersonate the Crown Prince's subordinate, you'll need some disguise, right? Like something that can change your appearance and voice. Do you have any such treasures?"

Xiao Zha said confidently, "Yes, host, of course. In the shop, there is a free item called 'Heaven and Earth Reversal Pill'. After taking it, you can transform into anyone's appearance at will, and even imitate their voice perfectly. However, the effect of this medicine is limited and can only last for five hours. Once the time is up, you will return to your original form."

"Hmm, five hours should be enough. We shouldn't delay, quickly bring me this 'Heaven and Earth Reversal Pill'!" Hua Yu said urgently.

Before she finished speaking, a small pill emitting a faint silver glow appeared in Hua Yu's hand as if by magic. She carefully took the pill, quickly tucked it into her sleeve, and carefully straightened her sleeve. Then, she gracefully stood up, smiled, and raised her glass to toast everyone.
