Chapter 166 The Empress Dowager sent a messenger with an oral edict.



This way.

Ye Qingcheng squatted down with great joy, carefully uprooted the Heavenly Silkworm Grass, and put it into her sleeve.

"Qin Mohan, let's go back. Tomorrow I'll make some preparations and start helping you detoxify."

"good."

The group then left the Flower Falling Courtyard and went to the front yard.

Since it was already quite late, and we had been busy for a while, it was already late.

Ye Qingcheng lost her appetite and returned to the Wisteria Courtyard by herself.

At the same time, he instructed the kitchen staff to deliver the food to Qin Mohan's courtyard.

However, Qin Mohan did not eat anything; he ordered the servants to remove all the food.

Then.

He led Qinglong and Thirteen to the study.

"Azure Dragon, I remember you were the one who brought the Cloud Camp to this manor?"

"Yes, Master."

"Where did you bring it back from?"

"It's the address Yunxiao gave us, Lotus Village."

"Are you sure it was brought back from Yunxiao's house?"

"Yes, Leng Yi went to handle this matter with his subordinates at the time."

Qin Mohan frowned slightly after hearing this.

"Master, are you wondering why Sister Yun would use poison?"

"Hmm! You know?"

"I don't know either."

After hearing this, Qin Mohan glared at Qinglong and said, "I didn't know you were asking."

Well?

Seeing this, Qinglong shut his mouth and dared not say anything more.

Meanwhile, on this side...

Thirteen spoke up: "Master, do you need me to go to Lotus Village and investigate the Cloud Camp?"

"Alright! Qinglong, rest for two more days. After Leng Yi and the others return tomorrow, Leng Yi, go there again and investigate carefully for me."

"Yes, Master."

"Alright, it's getting late, everyone go and rest!"

Qinglong and Shisan exchanged a glance after hearing this, but did not move.

kindness?

Seeing that the two of them were still standing there, Qin Mohan asked in confusion.

"Is there anything else?"

Thirteen mustered her courage and spoke up: "Master... what about the Princess Consort..."

After hearing this, Qin Mohan knew what Thirteen wanted to say.

He shook his head and sighed: "No need to investigate."

"Not investigate? But my lord, the princess's methods are not simple!"

"Yes! Your Highness, the Princess's interrogation methods don't seem like something an ordinary woman could use. It's as if she's undergone rigorous training, much like some organizations in the martial arts world."

“That’s right, Master. Although the Princess Consort doesn’t seem to have any ill intentions towards you, her martial arts skills, her medical skills, and her methods are all remarkable.”

She seemed to have stepped out of some mysterious assassin organization, completely unlike the image of a sheltered young woman.

"Then what?"

After listening to their words, Qin Mohan looked up at them and asked calmly.

Uh? And then?

Qinglong and Shisan noticed a hint of anger rising on Qin Mohan's face after hearing their words.

The two exchanged another glance, pursed their lips, and dared not say anything more.

Seeing that they had also shut up, Qin Mohan's expression softened considerably. He sighed and said, "I know what you are worried about, but I can tell that the Princess Consort has absolutely no ill intentions towards me."

After hearing this, Thirteen nodded: "This... we subordinates can also see it, but the identity of the princess is too suspicious. We hope that you will be cautious, my lord."

"Yes! Master, that Yunying seemed to treat you very well before, but who would have thought that she would be a master of poisons."

You said that if it weren't for the princess discovering her identity tonight, we would probably all be completely fooled by her.

Therefore, Thirteen is right. Please, Master, consider this carefully.

Qin Mohan glanced at the two of them: "What do you think of the Princess Consort?"

"Uh... the princess is a very nice person."

"That's settled then. The Yun Camp is hiding poison, but the Princess is open and honest, and has almost completely exposed everything to us. Do you think we should be suspicious?"

"this…"

"And even if I order you to investigate, will you be able to find anything?"

I already ordered you to investigate, and you found nothing."

"Uh? Your subordinate..."

"Alright, I do have doubts about the princess's identity, but her true feelings for me cannot be faked. I believe her. From now on, you are not allowed to mention it again without my permission."

Upon hearing this, the two frowned slightly, pursed their lips, and dared not say anything more.

"Alright, you can go now!"

"Yes, I'll take my leave."

After Qinglong and Thirteen finished speaking, they turned and left the study.

After the two of them left...

Qin Mohan stood up, walked to the window curtain, and looked up at the night sky.

"Your Highness! Your Highness, are you really Ye Qingcheng? If not, where is the real Ye Qingcheng? And how are you able to merge with the blood of Prime Minister Ye?"

And what about Yu'er? He looks so much like me; no one would believe he's not my son!

Looking at the night sky, Qin Mohan frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

This way.

Ye Qingcheng was busy all night. After having Xiao Xin and Xiao Cui help her wash and dress, she went to bed.

Time flies.

Before we knew it, it was morning.

However, we were busy until very late last night.

Ye Qingcheng did not get up and was still asleep.

Until almost noon.

Xiao Tao hurriedly arrived at her house and anxiously knocked on her door.

Without receiving permission, she entered the room and went to Ye Qingcheng's bedside.

"Your Highness, please wake up!"

Ye Qingcheng, half-asleep, vaguely heard Xiao Tao calling her, and impatiently turned over.

"Hey! Stop making noise."

"Miss, someone from the palace has arrived to deliver the Empress Dowager's decree."

"Oh, come on in! With Qin Mohan here, let me sleep a little longer..."

Ye Qingcheng, who was initially indifferent, was about to turn over again after hearing this.

But halfway through her sentence, she seemed to come to her senses, suddenly sat up, and frowned slightly.

"No... Xiaotao, what did you just say?"

"Miss, the nanny beside the Empress Dowager has come to deliver the Empress Dowager's decree."

"Empress Dowager?"

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly stood up.

"Quickly, Xiao Tao, go and prepare. Have Xiao Xin and Xiao Cui help me prepare my toiletries."

"Yes, Miss."

After Xiaotao finished speaking, she quickly left the room.

"Sister Tao, is the Princess awake?"

Xiao Cui and Xiao Xin, who were waiting outside, saw Xiao Tao come out and Xiao Cui asked.

"Yes! Xiao Cui and Xiao Xin, let's hurry up and get ready to help the Princess with her washing and dressing."

"Yes, Sister Xiaotao."

After the three finished speaking, they each took on different tasks and began preparations.

The three of them quickly got ready: one carried a basin of water, one brought a face towel, and one brought salt water for rinsing the mouth.

The three returned to Ye Qingcheng's room and began to serve her.

About an hour later.

With the help of the three women, Ye Qingcheng rinsed her mouth, washed her face, and did her makeup.

Wearing a bright green dress and a white magnolia hairpin in her hair, she quickly walked to the front yard.
