"Hey! Sister, it's so lively here. What happened?"
A slightly childish male voice rang out, and everyone turned around to see Han Ziwei and her younger brother Han Ruobin walking towards them.
"Ziwei, Ruobin, where did you go? Is something wrong?"
Upon seeing her daughter and son, Wang Shuqing hurried forward to greet them and inquired about their well-being.
"Did you hear about it, Mother? It really scared your daughter and Ruobin to death just now."
"Blood Purple Rose" clutched her chest, looking terrified.
Han Ruobin nodded.
"Yes! Just now, my son and his sister, along with another sister, went to my second sister's bedroom."
She led us here, where we were stopped by two men who insisted on binding my sister and me and taking us into this room. My sister and I were powerless and struggled desperately to escape.
She even left her clothes behind and hid in the back garden for a long time before daring to come out.
Han Ruobin spoke and gestured, then paused, as if asking a question in confusion.
"Mother, what's going on here? Why are there so many people?"
"Your second sister and someone..."
Wang Shuqing couldn't bring herself to say it, so she only said it lightly in the end.
"She said she was knocked unconscious by your older sister and thrown into this room."
Wang Shuqing shifted her body, revealing several disheveled people behind her.
"It's her...it's them..."
Han Ruobin pointed at the maid, then at the two dead people on the ground.
"That's right, it was this woman who brought my sister and me here."
The two men then grabbed my sister and me, trying to push us into the room. We struggled desperately and managed to escape. How could my second sister be with them? Could they be in cahoots?
Han Ruobin hated Han Ruyi to the core, and following Han Ziwei's instructions, he acted the play very realistically.
"You're talking nonsense. I don't know these two people at all. It was Han Ziwei who knocked me and Chunxiu unconscious and then found two people to defile our innocence."
It turns out that Chunxiu had just brought "Xue Ziwei" and Han Ruyi here. When "Xue Ziwei" realized that there was aphrodisiac in the room, she immediately used acupuncture to force Han Ruobin to wake up, took him away from the room, and knocked Chunxiu unconscious in the room.
After the two left the room, "Blood Purple Rose" originally intended to have Han Ruobin bring the two men over, to give them a taste of their own medicine.
Unexpectedly, Han Ruyi had a backup plan, having already arranged for two imperial guards to ambush them and prevent their escape.
Who is "Blood Purple Rose"? A former assassin, she is not someone others can control. In no time, she knocked out the two men and threw them into the room.
Not knowing which palace Han Ruyi lived in, she stopped a palace maid, gave her a silver ingot, and asked her to pass on a message to Han Ruyi.
"Just say the matter has been taken care of."
The palace maid took the silver and ran all the way to "Lanxiang Pavilion".
"Blood Purple Rose" followed closely, and when she saw Han Ruyi send someone to inform the Emperor to find someone, she floated into "Lanxiang Pavilion" like a ghost. She used a sedative powder to knock out all the servants in "Lanxiang Pavilion", and then called Han Ruobin to bring Han Ruyi here, which led to the scene just now.
"Second sister, do you always make baseless accusations? You wouldn't be telling the Emperor that I lit the aphrodisiac in the room, would you?"
Or are you planning to tell the Emperor that I arranged for these two people to be there?
"Blood Purple Rose" pointed to the two dead people on the ground.
He then bowed to Emperor Li Hongwen.
"Your Majesty, I implore you to thoroughly investigate 'Lanxiang Pavilion,' for there may still be unused 'Aphrodisiac Incense' there."
"Blood Purple Rose" spoke in a clear, melodious voice, but Han Ruyi sneered.
"Nonsense! You wouldn't be telling the Emperor that I personally used the 'love potion' to ruin my reputation, would you?!"
"It's not impossible, after all, my second sister has this kind of fetish. Didn't she already experience it once during the last fire?"
The tone of "Blood Purple Rose" was laced with sarcasm.
"you……"
Han Ruyi wanted nothing more than to tear Han Ziwei apart, but she knew she was no match for her. However, she was certain that even if she searched the palace, she wouldn't find anything, since she had only asked Chunxiu to buy three sticks of "love potion" and light them all.
"Your Majesty, if nothing is found, you must kill this vile woman and seek justice for me. Waaah..."
Han Ruyi lunged at Emperor Li Hongwen.
"I will personally lead the search."
Li Mufeng volunteered, and the Empress Dowager beckoned to a young eunuch beside her.
"You'll come along too."
Empress Dowager Feng Xiuzhen was naturally afraid that Li Mufeng would go easy on Han Ziwei, so she sent people to follow him.
Everyone eagerly awaited. As Li Mufeng passed by "Han Ziwei," he felt something in his palm. He glanced back at "Xue Ziwei" and saw her wink at him. He couldn't help but clench the note in his hand.
