Jiang Qianqian's words carried a hint of jealousy, and Li Youran naturally understood why.
"Three cobblers with their wits combined can equal one Zhuge Liang."
Li Youran's words were quite clever, implying that the minister's retainers were all like Zhuge Liang, while the prime minister's retainers were all just mediocre people.
Jiang Qianqian was amused by Li Youran's humor again, and her previous unpleasantness vanished. Just then, a deep male voice came from behind her.
"Who is this woman who speaks so sharply and meanly!"
Li Youran turned around and saw that it was Wu Yong.
Wu Yong was slightly taken aback when he saw Li Youran and Jiang Qianqian.
"Miss Li, Miss Jiang, Wu Yong has been abrupt."
Wu Yong clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.
One was a woman he admired, and the other was a woman of exceptional talent. No matter what, Wu Yong shouldn't have said those things.

"This is outrageous! My second uncle went out of kindness to help, but he was driven away."
Wang Xiangyu added fuel to the fire by continuing.
"Second Uncle, don't be sad. You still have your niece! If you need money, just tell your niece. Even if I don't eat or drink myself, I will take good care of you."
Li Erzhu feigned praise for Wang Xiangyu, then revealed his terrible idea.
“Second Uncle, this is probably not a good idea. Uncle Li is an honest and kind man. The reason he treats you this way is because he was secretly deceived by Li Youran.”
Wang Xiangyu's eyes darted around, and she whispered something in Li Erzhu's ear.
"What do you think, Second Uncle?"
"Great, that's perfect!"
Li Erzhu slapped his thigh and laughed heartily.
