Shen Qingchen didn't know what to say. He held his forehead. He had never seen such a stupid person who poisoned himself.

He opened the study door and ordered, "Come, send for the court physician."

The court doctor quickly came over, took Yue Lingyin's pulse, and then checked the tea. He finally concluded, "It's a common knockout drug, a relatively large dosage. A good night's sleep will be enough."

Shen Qingchen asked the court doctor to go down, carried Yue Lingyin to the couch, covered her with a quilt, and resignedly sorted out the mess.

Outside the door, the guards waited for a long time but did not see Shen Qingchen ask them to go in and collect the body. Seeing the palace doctor come out, they couldn't help but ask, "Is the assassin dead?"

"No, I slept soundly." Seeing their puzzled expressions, the court doctor said, "Don't wait any longer. The Prime Minister doesn't plan to kill this assassin today."

"Haven't you figured out a suitable solution?"

"No." The court doctor was speechless: "Why do you think I went in? To treat the assassin."

The guard walked away with a dazed look on his face.

In the morning, Yue Lingyin opened her eyes drowsily. Shen Qingchen sat beside her and looked at her, smiling and saying, "Are you awake?"

Yue Lingyin suddenly remembered where she was and stood up nervously: "Why did I fall asleep? What's going on? Is no one coming?"

Shen Qingchen curved her lips in a smile and shook her head slightly.

"That's good." Yue Lingyin breathed a sigh of relief and straightened her clothes as she spoke. "That's all for today. I'll be leaving first."

Shen Qingchen: “Are you coming again tonight?”

Yue Lingyin: "Come! I'll keep coming if I don't find anything."

Shen Qingchen's eyes sparkled with a faint light: "I am familiar with the Xiangfu. If you come in the evening, I will look for it with you."

Yue Lingyin was deeply moved: "There are not many good people like you. You are better than my senior brothers and sisters."

Shen Qingchen raised an eyebrow: “Senior Brother and Sister?”

"That's right." Yue Lingyin curled her lips. "They said the Prime Minister's residence is very dangerous and that once you go there, you can't come back. I think they are just cowards. How can the Prime Minister's residence be that dangerous? I can stay there all night and be fine."

Shen Qingchen chuckled. Her senior brothers and sisters were quite self-aware.

Yue Lingyin: "By the way, what's your name? How can I find you when I get here?"

"Chen Qing." Shen Qingchen deliberately said a name that was similar to the original name. Seeing that Yue Lingyin had no special reaction, he shook his head helplessly.

"I stay at the Prime Minister's residence during the day, guarding the house and at night I sleep in the study to look after the precious books for Prime Minister Chen. You can come here directly to find me."

Yue Lingyin felt a little guilty when she thought about the things she had messed up last night. Then she saw that everything had been put back in place. Her eyes widened in surprise: "You sorted it out?"

Shen Qingchen nodded slightly: “Yes.”

Yue Lingyin was excited: "That's great! From now on, I'll search in the front and you'll clean up in the back. We're a natural pair!"

Shen Qingchen twitched the corner of his mouth: "That's fine."

Yue Lingyin was thirsty and hungry. She glanced at the tea and snacks on the table with regret. Suddenly, she found that the plate containing the snacks was small and exquisite, carved from the finest white jade, and the flower pattern in the middle was lifelike.

Her eyes lit up, she poured the snacks onto the table and pocketed the plate.

Shen Qingchen's eyelids twitched: "What are you doing?"

Yue Lingyin sighed, "My family is so poor that we can't even afford to eat, so I'm putting it in the pawnshop to get some silver to use."

Shen Qingchen hesitated to speak. Should he tell her that all the items in the mansion were marked? The one in the middle of the plate was not some beautiful pattern, but the mark of his family emblem.

Yue Lingyin had no idea there was such a thing as a family crest. She happily covered her face and ran out from the roof.

The guard was shocked at first and then calmed down. He looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, pretending to be blind.

Yue Lingyin went to the pawn shop to pawn the plates.

The pawnshop owner took one look and thought, "Oh wow, isn't this my master's stuff? He's still wearing his nightgown. It must have been stolen. Here's his chance to make a name for himself!"

He asked Yue Lingyin to wait in the pawnshop while he went to report to his master without stopping.

A light smile appeared on Shen Qingchen's lips: "Let her be the pawn, and give her whatever amount of money she wants."

So the pawnshop owner came back, and Yue Lingyin enthusiastically shared her discovery with him.

"Boss, what a coincidence! The flower in the center of the plate is exactly the same as the one next to your shop's name!"

The pawn shop owner was speechless, "How much silver do you want?"

Yue Lingyin made a "two" gesture, and the pawnshop owner looked at her with disdain: "Two hundred taels?" He really didn't know the value of the item. The master's things were worth at least five hundred taels.

Yue Lingyin said, "Twenty taels."

boss:"……"

He took out twenty taels with a complicated expression and said, "Go quickly, and don't tell anyone that you were here."

Yue Lingyin nodded in understanding, an "I understand" expression on her face, and said softly, "Don't worry, I will keep this a secret and will never tell anyone about this."

The shopkeeper felt something was wrong and explained, "We are a legitimate store..."

Yue Lingyin: "I understand, I understand."

The shopkeeper took a deep breath and smiled. Don’t argue with a fool. He endured it!

…………………………

Yue Lingyin had a hearty breakfast. Amidst the strange looks from passersby, she belatedly looked at her clothes and then hurried back to the palace.

There was no one in Qinghan Palace. Yue Lingyin changed into a comfortable dress and went to the well to wash and dry her clothes.

After finishing her work, Yue Lingyin was sitting comfortably on a tall tree, reading a storybook in her hand. This was her new hobby.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of mottled light and shadow.

The breeze gently blew Yue Lingyin's hair. She narrowed her eyes slightly, enjoying the tranquility and leisure.
