On the other end, after Zhou Ying left the palace, she looked around curiously and found Nanny Liu and the spy.

At this moment, the spy had been stripped naked, and her body was covered in honey. Of course, there were also ants crawling all over him.

There were even many needles on her head and hands.

Nanny Liu was sitting opposite her, staring at the spy’s every move.

As long as she dared move an inch, even if she frowned, she would be pricked by Nanny Liu.

“Tsk, tsk, she’s even more ruthless than Nanny Rong,” sighed Zhou Ying.

“Mommy, who is Nanny Rong?” Guoguo raised her head and asked.

“A bad person. She specializes in pricking disobedient children with needles.” Zhou Ying said.

“Bad person, Guoguo doesn’t want Nanny Rong.” Guoguo immediately shouted.

“Yes, bad person. As long as Guoguo is obedient and studies hard, she won’t be able to see Nanny Rong.”

“Guoguo will be a good girl.” Guoguo nodded repeatedly.

“Yes, Guoguo is a good child.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she gently kissed her on the forehead.

When they got home, Zhou Ying fed Guoguo some water and asked Mrs. Lin to bring her down.

While she drank her tea, she paid attention to the movements of the spy in the palace.

In the end, the spy couldn’t take it anymore. She confessed that she was sent by the Western Continent and told them how she entered the palace.

It turned out that the palace maid she had replaced was a local in the capital. During the disaster years, she entered the palace to avoid starving to death.

Over the years, she would go back to visit from time to time, and she was replaced by the spy just recently.

As for who her master was, she refused to say anything. She took the opportunity to crash into the wall and die by having the needles on her head pierced into her skull.

“Mistress, Gu Zheng—Manager Gu requests an audience.” Qiuxiang came in and informed Zhou Ying.

“Let him go to the study.”

“Yes.” Qiuxiang responded and turned to leave.

After Zhou Ying finished her tea, she got up and went to the study.

As soon as she sat down, Qiuxiang brought Gu Zheng over.

“Greetings, Mistress.” Gu Cheng stepped forward and bowed.

“Have a seat. Qiuxiang will make a cup of tea.”

“No need; I’m not thirsty.” Gu Zheng waved her hand.

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Ying waved at Qiuxiang for her to retreat and asked Gu Zheng.

“The workshops and shops in the capital have stabilized, and a large portion of our soaps have been sold to other places.

“So I intend to start expanding.”

“Sure, but you must prevent the recipe from being leaked. Also, you must not make things difficult for others. Of course, if they started it, you don’t have to be polite.”

“Yes, I will remember your teachings.”

“I will send ten guards to follow you and help you run errands.

“At the same time, when you’re in another place, you might also develop some manpower. After all, when you’re in their territory, you must retain the ability to protect yourself.”

“Thank you, Mistress. I understand.”

“Alright, if there’s anything you can’t solve, just tell me.”

“Sorry to disturb you when you’re busy. I’ll take my leave now.” After Gu Cheng finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

After she left, Zhou Ying practiced her calligraphy in the study room. She later went to her small laboratory and took two cucumbers to try to make a skin tonic.

At night, after entering her interspace, Zhou Ying thought of the spy and went straight to the Western Continent.

It was a pity that she could not find the spy’s master. Instead, she found that the Western Continent was getting anxious because the rations were not enough.

Thus, they planned to send people to the Great Ming to poison their wells and rivers.

Zhou Ying was furious after hearing this. War was war, as the world was always divided. She did not want to interfere, and she would not.

However, using such despicable methods was too much..
