The next day, in the afternoon, someone returned with a confirmation. After listening to it, Uncle Feng asked gravely, “Are you sure you didn’t see it wrongly?”

“I’m sure, but I didn’t approach them as I feared being discovered. I didn’t hear what they were saying.”

“Alright, continue watching them.” Uncle Feng said solemnly.

At the same time, he knew it was within expectations. After all, a prince could not avoid these schemes.

When King Rui returned that evening, Uncle Feng told him about this. “Your Highness, we found another servant last night through that woman.

“Today, the servant boy went out to get more medicine. The person who met him was Seventh Young Master Su’s personal attendant.”

“It looks like Gu Chengrui didn’t get it wrong. That woman is indeed Qiao Lanlan.” King Rui muttered and then asked, “They’re still meeting after dinner tonight, right?”

“Yes, he’s handing over more medicine.”

“When the time comes, let’s go together and see what we can get out of them this time.”

“Yes, I will arrange for it now.” After Butler Feng finished speaking, he turned around and left.

King Rui went silent before muttering, “It seems that none of you can wait any longer. Fine, I will play with you.”

Qiao Lanlan finished her meal at night and again looked for the servant. “What did the higher-ups say this time?”

“It’s time to take action. Remember, only use it on the princess consort. Afterwards, push the blame onto the secondary consort and let them fight each other.” The servant instructed her as he gave her a bag of medicine.

Qiao Lanlan reluctantly took it and asked, “What about me? Am I going to lose my life?”

“Why don’t you dare to act now that things have really come to this?

“Don’t forget that your family died at the hands of King Rui. Aren’t you indirectly avenging your family?”

Qiao Lanlan gritted her teeth and silently agreed to this. She then said unwillingly, “I just can’t accept it.

“You promised me to deal with Gu Chengrui and his wife. It’s been so long, and there’s still no result. I want to see their tragic ending.”

“I already told you, this matter can’t be rushed.

“Gu Chengrui now had the technology to build greenhouses and grow sweet potatoes. He’s at the height of his power and is highly appreciated by the Emperor.

“If we strike now, wouldn’t we be causing trouble for our master?

“But soon, he’s going to print his knowledge into a booklet. Once that’s done, it would be the day they die.”

“Fine, I’ll wait a little longer.”

“What are you waiting for? If I’m not mistaken, the princess consort will stay at His Highness’ place tonight; we’ll act tomorrow.

“Don’t worry, Master will definitely make them die with you.”

Qiao Lanlan finally nodded and said, “Alright, I hope you keep your word.

Otherwise, I won’t let you off even if I become a ghost.”

“Remember to act tomorrow.” The servant reminded her once again and turned to leave.

However, he had only taken two steps when Guard Chu’s sword stopped him.

When the servant saw this, he knew that he had been exposed. He was shocked and quickly turned around to run into a tree.

Qiao Lanlan panicked when she saw this. But a large sword was placed on her neck before she could run.

The servant was also quickly pressed to the ground by Guard Chu.

“Take him to the dungeon.” After King Rui finished speaking, he turned around and stepped into the dungeon.

When the servant saw King Rui, he knew he had no chance of survival. He opened his mouth and was about to bite his tongue to commit suicide. However, he was struck unconscious by Guard Chu’s palm and dragged directly into the dungeon.

After entering, he immediately gave the two of them a muscle relaxant and began interrogating them.

Because King Rui knew who their master was, Qiao Lanlan quickly confessed that the medicine she had received this time was intended for sterilization..
