Ye Qianqian said with a smile.

"From now on, you will stay here in this brothel obediently."

"Just do what you're supposed to do."

Li Mei was a little nervous.

"Princess, do you mean you want me to entertain guests?"

Ye Qianqian shook her head.

"No, don't worry, I won't let you ruin your innocence."

"However, you have to make a sacrifice, and that sacrifice is related to your reputation."

"Oh?" Li Mei looked puzzled. "Does the princess mean—"

"Since Li Yan wants to marry Xue Qing with a clean identity, then destroy that clean identity so that she cannot marry Xue Qing cleanly."

"Could it be that the princess is planning to have it destroyed—"

"No!" Ye Qianqian shook her head.

"Such methods are truly despicable. Although I know this method is feasible, I also know that it is not a way to make Li Yan wish she were dead!"

“I have a better way to make her reputation completely ruined even though she has a clean record.”

"I will spread the word that Li Yan, the top courtesan of Yanchun Pavilion, has contracted syphilis."

"At that time, Li Yan's reputation will be ruined first."

"The real Li Yan wouldn't be surprised to hear this news, after all, she's no longer Li Yan."

"But at the same time, I will also spread another rumor, that is—Xue Qing is a frequent visitor to Li Yan!"

Li Mei instantly understood.

"What the princess means is that if Li Yan has contracted syphilis, then how could Xue Qing not have been infected as well?"

"At that time, Xue Qing's reputation will begin to be questioned."

"Xue Qing always disguises himself as someone else to come here, all for the sake of the Xue family's reputation."

"Xue Qing will definitely not admit that he was here."

"Princess, this method might be a bit—"

Ye Qianqian nodded.

“I understand what you mean. As long as Xue Qing insists on denying it, the rumors outside will eventually disappear.”

"Unless concrete evidence can be presented to prove it."

"The evidence is simple! Xue Qing always carries the Xue family's jade pendant with him."

"It would be an easy thing for me to get this jade pendant."

"Xue Qing had already prepared a marriage certificate in order to marry Li Yan."

"Li Yan has been holding onto this marriage certificate all along."

"It's not difficult for me to get the marriage certificate."

"When the time comes, all you need to do is take this jade pendant and the marriage certificate to the Xue family's door and demand an explanation!"

"At that time, the Xue family will naturally be unable to deny it!"

Li Mei suddenly realized.

"I see!"

"The princess wants to ruin Li Yan's reputation while putting the Xue family in a difficult position."

"We have to deal with this."

"At that time, Xue Qing's plan to marry Li Yan will be completely ruined."

Ye Qianqian nodded

"That's right, this is called 'lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot'!"

Li Mei sighed with emotion.

"Princess, you are so clever!"

“We are both reborn, but your wisdom far surpasses mine.”

"Before, I only thought about avenging my past life and dying together with my enemy, but I never thought there would be such a method."

"What I'm ruining now is Li Yan's reputation. Li Mei's reputation is still good."

"After this is over, I can still be with Brother Hu Ying."

Ye Qianqian nodded.

"Yes, but I think it's time to tell Hu Ying the truth!"

"I'll bring Hu Ying over tonight, and you two can have a good talk."

"Yes!" Li Mei immediately knelt down in front of Ye Qianqian.

“Princess, it is my honor to receive such help from you.”

Ye Qianqian helped her up.

"I'm doing this for you, and also for myself."

After Li Mei returned.

Hu Ying asked her how things were going.

"Li Mei" said hypocritically.

"The madam said that to redeem my sister, we would need at least ten thousand taels of silver."

"But I don't have that much money, and I want to bring my sister back. What should I do?"

Hu Ying sighed and said.

"That madam is far too greedy!"

"They're asking for an exorbitant price!"

“Li Mei, don’t be afraid. Let’s save up money together. Once we have enough, we’ll go and redeem your sister. If that doesn’t work, I’ll sell all the house deeds and land deeds I’ve added. That should be enough to scrape together some money.”

“Brother Hu Ying, you’re so kind.” “Li Mei” looked at him with tears in her eyes.

But I was internally complaining.

Are you an idiot?!

{No, it's a complete traitor!}

{No wonder someone like you will never amount to anything; you'll always be stuck doing manual labor to make a living!}

{Hmph, don't worry, after I kill your sweetheart, I'll send you to the underworld to keep her company! Then you'll be a ghost couple!}

Hu Ying, however, felt that something was off about "Li Mei".

"Li Mei, I feel like something's off about you."

"Oh? Something's not right?" "Li Mei" asked, sounding a little guilty.

"Hmm, it's nothing. Maybe I'm overthinking it. I just feel that your voice is much softer than before. You didn't speak like this before."

"Um, maybe it's because I was in such a rush on the way here and there, my voice has changed a bit!" "Li Mei" said somewhat guiltily.

"I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Hu Ying nodded.
