"So you're the one who wants to see me?" the woman asked, looking down at her.
Qiaoyi took out the nine-petaled bronze lotus that Ye Bijun had given her from her sleeve and said to the woman, "No, my young lady sent me. She said that thanks to the care of the host last time, that little bitch's face has been successfully ruined, but that little bitch still wants to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Does the host have any good ideas on how to deal with this?"
The woman chuckled and said, "If you want Ronghua Tower to offer advice, it won't be cheap. Can your young lady afford it?"
Qiaoyi quickly presented the thick wad of silver notes with both hands: "My young lady is sincerely seeking help, and we beg you, sir, not to hesitate to offer your guidance!"
The woman gave a satisfied "hmm" and gestured for the two maids behind her to put away the silver notes. Then, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Qiaoyi, saying, "This is a rare poison called 'Puppet Master.' It can make a person lose their mind and turn them into a puppet that can be controlled at will. Once you use it, your young lady can make that little slut do whatever she wants, even if it means sending her to her death, she won't hesitate at all."
"Such a miraculous medicine exists in the world?" Qiaoyi exclaimed in astonishment. "How should this poison be used in the best way? Will anyone notice anything after being poisoned?"
"This poison is very easy to use; just a little bit on that little bitch's skin is enough to infect her. Moreover, the most unique feature of this poison is that no one except the person who uses it can see any abnormalities. Afterwards, no toxins will be found in the poisoned person's body, and even the poisoned person will have their memory of being poisoned completely erased," the woman said. "So, young lady, you must be very careful and not accidentally get poisoned yourself."
Qiaoyi shuddered, and with a mixture of surprise and fear, she bowed gratefully to the woman: "Thank you for your help, Master!"
After Qiaoyi left, the woman's smile faded, and she exited the inner room. She walked to the end of the corridor, gently turning a vase on a flower stand. Suddenly, the wall at the end of the corridor slid aside, revealing a secret passage inside. The woman followed the passage for about half an incense stick's time until she reached a brightly lit secret room. She knelt respectfully on the ground and addressed Ye Yingrou, who was arranging poisonous herbs and insects within:
"Li Ge greets the Lord of the Tower."
Hearing the sound, Ye Yingrou lazily raised her head and glanced at her, casually asking, "The things have been given away?"
"Reporting to the host, it has been given, and the message was delivered as you instructed."
Ye Yingrou's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, revealing an extremely cold smile.
So what if Gongsun Yuan is cured of the poison? She has plenty of ways to deal with them. Now she's even more looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Meanwhile, at this very moment, in the Prince of Nanping's mansion.
Mo Zhao stepped through the gates of the Prince's mansion and hurried toward the study. Reaching the study door, he stopped, raised his hand, and knocked. Chunyu Jing's voice immediately came from inside.
"Come in."
Mo Zhao pushed open the door, walked up to Chunyu Jing, bowed, and said, "Your Highness, there is progress on the matter you asked me to investigate."
Chunyu Jing put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Speak."
"The two women that the prince saw in the clinic that day, the one with the scar on her face is Ye Pianran, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Anshi, the granddaughter of Prime Minister Gongsun, and the fiancée of Young Master Ouyang."
“Hmm,” Chunyu Jing asked, “What about the other one?”
Mo Zhao said, "And another extremely beautiful one is the young lady from the Xu family in Yanliu Lane, named Ye Yingrou."
"Surname Ye, not Xu?" Chunyu Jing pondered for a moment with considerable interest.
"Speaking of the Xu family mansion, things are quite interesting. There is no male head of the household, only a Madam Xu. The person who purchased the land for the Xu family mansion was Xu Shanling, the largest tea merchant in Fuzhou. At first, I also found it strange, but after many days of investigation, I finally found out some information. This Madam Xu... is the mistress of Lord Anshi. And Ye Yanxun, the son of Lord Anshi who is often seen with him and who is studying at Wensong Academy, is this Madam Xu's biological son."
"Oh?" Chunyu Jing raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Since you are Anshi Hou's man and have two children, why not bring them back to the Hou's mansion, instead of raising them outside?"
"I have no idea about that," Mo Zhao said, shaking his head.
A thoughtful look crossed Chunyu Jing's wicked face: "Marquis Anshi? Very good..."
