Not daring to delay any longer, she went straight to the housekeeper Hong Zhong's residence.

Of all the people in the Chu household, the couple trusted two people the most: the steward Hong Zhong and the guard commander Yue Shan. A few days ago, some things happened in another place, and Yue Shan was dispatched to check on the situation.

Looking back now, it must have been Chu Tiesheng's conspiracy, deliberately orchestrating those events in order to transfer Yue Shan away.

Fortunately, there's still Hong Zhong!

Without Yue Shan, Hong Zhong was the person she trusted most in the entire Chu family.

Others might betray the couple, but Hong Zhong would never.

It wasn't just because he was a respected elder of the Chu family for several generations, but also because of my understanding of his character after so many years of getting to know him.

He is mature, meticulous, and has always been an upright person.

She ran wildly, nearly tripping and falling several times along the way.

The familiar yet strange feeling surging through her body filled her with both shame and anger. She thought she should find Hong Zhong first and ask him to gather people to suppress Chu Tiesheng's rebellion, lest the Chu family be truly overthrown in the end.

Then she tried to figure out how to get rid of this wretched, vile drug on her body...

She rushed to the courtyard where Hong Zhong lived and knocked urgently on the door: "Old Hong, Old Hong~"

The door opened quickly, and Hong Zhong came out looking puzzled: "Madam, what are you doing here?"

"There's no time to explain. Chu Tiesheng has committed treason, and we don't know how many people he's colluded with yet. Quickly gather your men and capture him..." Before she could finish speaking, she froze, because Hong Zhong suddenly reached out and struck a vital point on her body, rendering her completely immobile.
