The daughter of a noble family is reborn, and she is doted on by her godmother.

Yun Yuke shook her head. Having suddenly learned of this news, she was unsure what to do. Although she had indeed heard about "sending concubines" before, she never expected that someone would actually be planning to give her daughter to Marquis Ankang.

"Since this involves Marquis Ankang, if the other party really resorts to violence... a fight to the death would be the worst-case scenario..."

"That won't do!" Aunt Hua and Liu Zhou'er both refused when they heard Yun Yuke say this.

“Our business was built up with great difficulty, how can it be destroyed just like that!” Aunt Hua has been following Yun Yuke for more than ten years and knows that it has not been easy along the way. Whether it is the industry in Xin’an City or the industry in Changgan City, it was all built up by everyone together.

Liu Zhou'er also shook her head, "Boss Yun, we can't let everyone's business be ruined because of my situation."

Yun Yuke quickly stopped the mother and daughter.

"Don't worry, you two. As I said, let's prepare for the worst first, and then we can discuss other solutions."

After calming the two down, Yun Yuke paced around the room, circled a few times, thought for a moment, and then made a decision.

"Let's hold back for now. Qingqing, when Liu Jie came this time, are you sure he came alone, without anyone else?"

Yun Qingjin nodded emphatically, "Mother, I'm sure. He was alone the whole way back."

“That’s it,” Yun Yuke nodded. “I guess Liu Jie initially wanted to resolve the matter between Aunt Hua and Zhou’er himself, meaning he didn’t want his new wife to know about his ex-wife. That’s why he usually comes alone and doesn’t bring any servants. And when he first met Aunt Hua, a servant came to find him, but he didn’t want his wife’s side to know about Aunt Hua’s situation, which is why he didn’t get involved with us.”

"So that's how it is." Yun Qingjin thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. This also explained why the person hadn't bargained and was in such a hurry to leave.

Yun Yuke remembered that when she first monitored the couple, Liu Jie did not mention his wife and children at all before he met her.

That's probably why they paired up.

“But now the situation has changed,” Yun Yuke continued.

"Qingqing, let me ask you again, are you sure you heard Liu Jie tell the young lady beside him about Aunt Hua and Sister Zhou'er?"

Yun Qingjin nodded again, "I'm sure. That's why I rushed back and haven't let Sister Zhou'er go out these past few days."

“His choices have changed,” Aunt Hua murmured to herself. “For the sake of profit, he’s no longer hiding it and has decided to use Zhou’er to secure his own future.”

"Perhaps he originally planned to find another place to settle you, and might even have been thinking of enjoying the blessings of having two wives..."

"Pah!" Aunt Hua retorted.

"After meeting Zhou'er, he felt that Zhou'er met his criteria, so in order to gain favor with Marquis Ankang, he is now doing this. Therefore, he told the new lady about it, so... he may be thinking of using Marquis Ankang's power."

Yun Yuke thought for a moment, "Hmm, there's been no movement these past few days, they're probably busy making plans. If they've made their arrangements... they'll come back and snatch her away."

“Then we still can’t let Auntie and Zhou’er go out these next few days,” Yun Qingjin answered quickly.

"Yes, every step we've taken so far has been correct. Right now, we're in the best possible situation. If we were to predict what will happen next..."

Having considered the current situation, Yun Yuke naturally needed to prepare for what would happen next.

For a moment, the room fell silent; no one spoke. Everyone was wondering what that person would do next.

"Um, I'd like to ask first, is that so-called Marquis Ankang the same Marquis that Boss Yun mentioned before, the rather cruel Marquis in Changgan City? Boss Yun mentioned it when he was explaining the situation to us when we first arrived."

Liu Zhou'er spoke first.

Yun Yuke nodded. "Although there are some dark aspects I haven't told you about, I did mention this situation: this Marquis of Ankang does indeed have some problems. After all, he is a marquis; if he wanted to do something illegal, I doubt anyone would dare to investigate."

"I've been thinking about this for the past couple of days. If I become that marquis's concubine, could I get rid of him?"

"What did you say?" Yun Yuke, Yun Qingjin, Yuan Chen, and Aunt Hua were all shocked.

"What nonsense are you spouting, you little brat!"

"You don't need to venture into the tiger's den!"

"I'll solve any problems!"

"It's not worth spending your whole life on someone like that."

All four of them spoke at the same time, creating an extremely loud noise. Liu Zhou'er quickly covered her ears and stepped back slightly.

"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Liu Zhou'er quickly apologized.

"You'd better have just acted on a whim, girl."

"I have actually considered this possibility." Liu Zhou'er muttered softly, but then she got punched a few more times by the little girl Qingqing. A few years ago, when she was practicing medicine, she was impulsive and the little girl Qingqing had once "beat" her with these soft fists.

"I know you like doing these things, but it's not to that extent yet, don't overthink it." Yun Yuke frowned. Liu Zhou'er, that girl, has some habits that tend to go to extremes.

If you need herbs from the mountains, you can stay in the mountains for three or four days.

If a patient needs to be tested with a drug, the patient can take the medicine first and then adjust the dosage in cooperation with the doctor.

"Zhou'er, we know a lot of things now. Don't worry, we have so much information on hand, we can come up with a good solution."

Yun Yuke took it very seriously.

“Yu Niang and Zhou’er are still in the shadows, so we have the upper hand. We need you to stay home for a few more days. If you don’t reveal your presence, the other side can only come to our shop to look for people, which will allow us to make better plans.”

"Mother, should we go and discuss this with Teacher Zhu? Maybe she has a better solution?" Yun Qingjin asked.

"We can go ask her. But it's already late, let's rest first and I'll ask about the situation again tomorrow morning. We need to know more information to make a better decision."

Yun Yuke's first thought was that if she could kill Ankang Hou directly, she wouldn't have to worry about any impact this person would have on Zhou'er.

If we were to actually kill Marquis Ankang now, what if it ruined Zhu Ling and the others' plans...?

Assassinating Marquis Ankang would not be difficult. When Yun Yuke visited Marquis Ankang's residence last time, she had already investigated the security situation there.

Based on initial assessment, the security is not too tight, and it should be easy for one person to break in.

"Taking down a marquis isn't difficult; the real challenge is resolving all the chaos that's erupting in this city," Yun Yuke shook her head.

"This Marquis Ankang may still harbor some hidden evils. Wouldn't it be too easy for him to just send him to another world?"

"Consulting fees, huh? Where did that money end up? Changgan City is so big, who has the ability to pull off such a grand operation and collect bribes from the entire city?"

"Who else could it be besides the Empress Dowager's family?"
