The next day after Gu Yanyue returned to the palace, she brought Yu Wenran to the restaurant.
Sure enough, when the mastermind behind the drugging arrived, Yuwen Ran took action instantly and captured the person.
"Who asked you to come?"
The murderer who was controlled by Yu Wenran on the ground turned his head away and did not answer.
"You're still stubborn," Gu Yanyue said coldly, "You only know that your boss is very powerful, but you don't know that Fengji Restaurant is something you can't afford to offend, right?"
After saying that, Gu Yanyue ordered coldly: "Liu Mei, deal with him and throw him into the moat!"
The man finally couldn't help himself, and was already trembling with fear: "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything."
Gu Yanyue and Yu Wenran exchanged a glance, and Gu Yanyue immediately asked, "What's your name? Who asked you to do those things?"
"My name is Jiang Chen. Madam Qin from the Prime Minister's Mansion asked me to do this. Please, please forgive me. I will never do anything detrimental to Fengji Restaurant again!"
Before he could finish, Yu Wenran hit him on the back of the neck with his palm, and he fainted.
After knowing these things, Gu Yanyue did not publicize them, but kept silent about what happened in the restaurant, as if nothing had happened.
Prime Minister's Mansion.
Ever since Gu Yanrou did this, she didn't dare stay in the palace, fearing that Gu Yanyue would attack her. Even in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she lived a tormented life every day. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and asked angrily, "Mom, will Gu Yanyue find us?"
"No, there has been no movement for so many days. Don't worry, Rou'er. It must be that idiot Gu Yanyue who can't find anything!" Mrs. Qin comforted Gu Yanrou.
Gu Yanrou believed it a little, and then asked: "Mom, what are you going to do next?"
"To prevent future troubles." Mrs. Qin's ruthlessness gradually grew.
"Madam, Miss, the emperor is here." The little palace maid came to report.
Gu Yanrou looked up, overjoyed.
Madam Qin held her daughter back and asked the maid to go down first. Then she stopped Gu Yanrou and said, "Why are you so anxious?"
"Mother, His Majesty must be here to see me!" Gu Yanrou said with a smile.
"Since I'm here to see you, why don't you dress up?" Mrs. Qin said as she helped Gu Yanrou dress up.
However, when Gu Yanrou came out dressed up, she found that it was not just Yuwen Ran who came, but Gu Yanyue was also with Yuwen Ran.
The smile on Gu Yanrou's face immediately disappeared. However, Madam Qin was smart and gave Gu Yanrou a hint. Gu Yanrou forced a smile and reluctantly saluted, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Queen."
"Sister, you're so polite." Gu Yanyue called Gu Yanrou sister, but there was no respect in her tone.
"It is a great honor for the Prime Minister's residence that Your Majesty and the Empress have come to my place." Prime Minister Gu said politely, and Yuwen Ran also responded politely.
Even if she became the queen, Prime Minister Gu was too lazy to look at Gu Yanyue
"Your Majesty, are you here to pick up Rou'er?" asked Prime Minister Gu.
Yu Wenran did not answer Prime Minister Gu's question. He just pulled Gu Yanyue to sit down and said with a smile: "No, something happened in the Queen's restaurant. I came to ask the Madam."
He smiled kindly, but Mrs. Qin's expression changed slightly when she heard the purpose of Yuwen Ran's visit, but she quickly concealed it.
Gu Yanrou subconsciously felt that the matter was exposed, so she lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. Something happened at Yue'er Restaurant. Why are you coming to my place?" Prime Minister Gu probably knew something, but now he could only think of changing the subject.
"Really?" Yu Wenran sneered, and then slammed the table. Everyone in the Gu family knelt down. Gu Yanrou looked unhappy. Madam Qin pretended to be calm and comforted her, but she was actually scared in her heart.
"I think Prime Minister Gu is increasingly disregarding me!" Yuwen Ran said, then looked coldly at Madam Qin. "Does Prime Minister Gu know what his wife has been doing behind my back, or is he deliberately hiding it?"
After saying this, he looked at Madam Qin coldly.
Mrs. Qin's face turned pale instantly.
"Madam, I'm afraid you have forgotten about the restaurant?" Gu Yanyue spoke directly.
Gu Yanrou collapsed to the ground upon hearing this. She had originally thought the matter was over, but now she turned to Madam Qin for help. Madam Qin was not panicked, but looked at Gu Yanyue, "What did the Queen say?"
"Madam, you are so forgetful. Let me help you recall the past." Gu Yanyue smiled and slowly told her everything. "Madam, have you and your sister remembered it?"
At this moment, Gu Yanrou no longer had the arrogance of the past. She just hid behind Madam Qin and glared at Gu Yanyue fiercely.
"Why did the Empress wrongly accuse us mother and daughter?" Madam Qin suppressed the fear on her face and looked at Gu Yanyue, neither humble nor arrogant. "Empress, Rou'er has some grievances with you, but isn't it a little inappropriate for the Empress to do this?"
These words clearly said that Gu Yanyue was taking revenge on personal grounds and had no magnanimity.
"But since the Queen thinks we did it, then we did it. At most, as a mother, I will bear the responsibility for Rou'er. Please don't make things difficult for my Rou'er in the future."
As she spoke, Mrs. Qin actually squeezed out a few tears.
Gu Yanyue smiled, looked at Madam Qin who was acting, and said a few words coldly, "Madam, you should be familiar with the killer named Jiang, right? He is in the government office now, why don't we go and confront him."
She looked Mrs. Qin up and down again, and sure enough, when she mentioned the surname Jiang, Mrs. Qin looked incredulous.
"Noble Concubine Rou, why don't you say it?" Yu Wenran asked Gu Yanrou at Gu Yanyue's signal.
"Your Majesty, Rou'er is confused. Please forgive Rou'er." Gu Yanrou was not frightened. Yuwen Ran made her tell everything with just one sentence.
