After being reborn, I locked up all the scumbags and bitches in one nest.

After falling to the ground, Xiao Ping immediately got up and knelt down, pleading, "Your Excellency, spare my life! Your Excellency, spare my life!"

Prime Minister Qin looked at them coldly, "Speak, what happened? Did you embezzle Miss's food?"

The maids knelt down and shook their heads, saying, "We didn't, Your Excellency, please investigate!"

Qin Xiang pointed at the small screen, "You tell me, what exactly happened?"

Xiao Ping paused for a moment, then said, "Yes, it was prepared by Aunt Li from the kitchen. She said it was food specially prepared for the Second Miss, and it was ordered by Madam."

"Nonsense! Is my Prime Minister's residence starving? A young lady of high status can't even afford meat, while the servants are all burly and strong."

Prime Minister Qin's lips trembled with anger. "Steward, go to the kitchen immediately and instruct them to prepare a meal for the Second Miss. Do as the doctor says, and also warn those who are blind to the danger."

"Yes."

The butler immediately hurried to the kitchen.

Prime Minister Qin spoke again, "Guards, take these lazy and incompetent servants away and give them ten strokes of the cane each. If they fail to serve their master properly next time, they shall be expelled from the Prime Minister's residence."

A series of operations,

Qin Wanyou softly called out "Father," pretending to plead for mercy.

However, Prime Minister Qin raised his hand to stop him, saying, "You'er, I've been busy with official duties these past few days and haven't had time to take care of you. I'm sorry you've suffered. If this happens again in the future, be sure to send someone to inform me. You should rest well, and I will make sure your mother takes good care of you."

Qin Wanyou bowed slightly, saying weakly, "Thank you, Father. I'm alright."

Qin Xiang looked at Qin Wanyou and said, "You should rest well. I have things to attend to. I'll come see you again tomorrow."

After saying that, he strode away, and you could tell from his back that he was very angry.

Qin Wanyou took a sip of her tea, listened to the screams outside, and then slowly lay back down on the bed.

After leaving Qin Wanyou's Green Bamboo Courtyard, Prime Minister Qin went directly to the main courtyard where Madam Li lived.

There was a "pop" sound,

"Master!" Just as Madam Li was about to bow to Prime Minister Qin, she was slapped to the ground by him and stared at him in astonishment.

"You stupid woman!" Prime Minister Qin pointed at Madam Li, speechless with anger.

"I don't know what I've done to deserve this from the Prime Minister!" Madam Li questioned Prime Minister Qin, covering her face.

Prime Minister Qin glared at Madam Li, "What is this? Did you order You'er's meals to be prepared this way? If word gets out that the Right Prime Minister's residence mistreats its children and abuses the sick, what will become of the Prime Minister's residence? Do you think the Right Prime Minister's wife is sitting too high in the position? How utterly ignorant!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Li's eyes flickered slightly. "Prime Minister, I..."

Prime Minister Qin interrupted, "Today is the first day of early summer, the beginning of a new month. Mingyu and Mingzhu need to obtain spiritual energy from Qin Wanyou. Look at what you've done! Qin Wanyou is weak and powerless now, how can you transfer spiritual energy to her?"

At this point, Madam Li panicked a little. "Prime Minister, I... I only punished Mingzhu a little because I saw she had frightened her that day. I didn't expect it to..."

"From now on, keep a close eye on Qin Wanyou's meals. If they affect her acquisition of spiritual energy, you can forget about being the Right Prime Minister's wife, hmph!"

After finishing his speech, Prime Minister Qin left immediately.

Watching Prime Minister Qin leave, Madam Li knew without a doubt that he had gone to that vile woman again. She gripped the handkerchief in her hand tightly, "Qin Wanyou! Just you wait until I get your spiritual power!"

Qin Wanyou looked very pleased with today's lunch and ate it happily!

There was a "pop" sound,

"Withdraw!"

The Empress Dowager put down her spoon and waved for the food on the table to be removed.

Granny Wu stepped forward to serve her, saying worriedly, "Your Highness, please have a little bit."

"If you can't eat, take everything away!" The Empress Dowager closed her eyes briefly, then, supported by Granny Wu, left her seat and headed towards her bedroom. "Did the Emperor really send that thousand-year-old ginseng to the Regent's Palace?"

Granny Wu bowed her head and replied, "According to the servants, this is indeed true."

"Hmph, he's really willing to do that!"

Granny Wu dared not respond.

The Empress Dowager continued to mutter to herself, "Indeed, after all, it was Regent Murong Cheng who personally taught him and helped him secure his throne, protecting the Great Yan empire for him. If we don't wholeheartedly care for the Regent's heir, we will be criticized by the entire court and the people for being ungrateful!"

Granny Wu continued to remain mute.

After the Empress Dowager sat down, she asked again, "Was it really true that none of our men survived last night?"

Granny Wu shook her head. "We haven't received any news of anyone returning alive yet."

The Empress Dowager thought of last night,

"It's almost midnight, why hasn't anyone returned to report the situation? Are you sure everyone has been taken care of?"

Granny Wu reassured her, "Your Highness, the people have already been arranged to go out, but the Regent's Palace is not an ordinary prince's residence after all. It has many experts and is as solid as a rock."

"No matter how many experts he has, this time we will make the Regent's Palace a thing of the past! That little beast should never have been born into this world," the Empress Dowager said viciously.

With a loud thud, a sound came from outside the courtyard, and Granny Wu immediately went out to check.

A man dressed in black was lying prone in the courtyard. Granny Wu went forward to investigate.

At this moment, the man in black spoke haltingly, "We...our..."

Before he could finish speaking, he died completely.

After confirming that the person was gone, Granny Wu had someone handle the matter and then went in to inform the Empress Dowager.

After a moment's thought, the Empress Dowager said, "It seems our entire army has been wiped out."

Then he smashed the cup in his hand on the ground, shouting, "Useless!"

After thinking it over, the Empress Dowager asked again, "Besides the person who came back last night, is there no one else?"

Granny Wu lowered her head and remained silent.

"What a bunch of useless fools!" The Empress Dowager picked up her teacup and took a sip. "Any news from Prince Li's side?"

Granny Wu quickly replied, "His Highness Prince Li has sent you some more things to cheer you up. They're on their way and will arrive in a couple of days."

"Yes, my son is the most filial. Rest now." The Empress Dowager helped Wu Mama's arm and walked to the bedside.

"Your Highness, you may rise now. The person has left."

Mo Bei spoke up to remind him.

Murong Xiao opened his eyes and threw back the covers. "Have the people from last night found out who's behind this?"

"According to General Chang's investigation, the Empress Dowager's side was the main instigator, and there should be princes' people mixed in, but it is not clear which prince it is. Most of those captured so far are suicide soldiers, and we can't get any useful information out of them. However, General Chang said that there are traces of the late Emperor Yan Ling's army among those who attacked," Mo Xi replied.

"That old hag actually used the Yanling Army left behind by the late emperor to attack the Regent's Palace. What is she trying to do?" Gu Siyuan couldn't help but curse.

"No, she's probably using people from the Yanling army to train assassins. She doesn't dare to openly send the Yanling army to attack the Prince's residence yet," Murong Xiao said with a hint of disdain, then looked at Gu Siyuan, "Aren't you supposed to be at home recovering from your injuries? Does the Grand Princess really want you to leave the residence?"

“Everyone outside is saying you’re unconscious. When my mother heard about your condition, she wanted to come in person, but she caught a cold a couple of days ago and wasn’t feeling well, so I volunteered to come and visit her instead.” Gu Siyuan looked through the gifts sent by the court officials. “My injuries aren’t serious.”

Just then, Physician Luo rushed in from outside, "I heard that a thousand-year-old ginseng has been sent from the palace. Where is it? Where is it?"

Moxi picked up a box. "This must be a gift from the Crown Prince."

Doctor Luo immediately snatched the box and opened it. Everyone in the room immediately smelled the unique fragrance of ginseng. A complete ginseng was displayed in front of everyone. Doctor Luo picked up the ginseng and exclaimed, "My goodness, it really is a thousand-year-old ginseng!"

Then I immediately put it back and closed the box.

At this moment, Murong Xiao said to Doctor Luo, "Master Luo, Granny Wang is setting off to return to Chu Yue tomorrow. Could you please make this ginseng into a life-saving pill for unforeseen circumstances?"

In the end, Murong Xiao agreed to Wang Mama's request, but allowed Mo Dong to accompany her.

“But this was given to you by the Emperor…” Mo Bei disagreed.

Doctor Luo hesitated, wanting to speak but unable to.

Murong Xiao looked at them and said, "It has been a long time since Granny returned to Chu Yue. The dangers of this journey are unknown, and it will certainly not go smoothly. Please ask Elder Luo for help."

Doctor Luo sighed and took the ginseng out.
