At night, Kang Yueran sneaked to Prince Ping's mansion.
Chai Shijing knew she would arrive in the next few days and had been looking forward to her. As soon as the two met, they started to get close to each other.
"Yueran, I only feel at ease when I hold you in my arms! Yueran..."
"Um?"
"Yue Ran!"
Kang Yueran's voice was a little soft, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to call you. In the past, when I called your name, no one responded to me."
"Why are you calling my name when you have nothing to do?"
Chai Shijing said confidently, "I miss you!"
Kang Yueran gave Chai Shijing a loud kiss, "Be good!"
After the sweetness, Chai Shijing made tea and talked to Kang Yueran about what happened in Beijing.
"Ever since I injured Wan Guoxing, Lady Lu has been running around trying to avenge her son. Qin Cheng helped me solve two of those incidents."
Kang Yueran got angry when she mentioned this. "You're still talking about this. Someone bribed my maid to poison my family. Fortunately, Xiao Wuzi was smart enough to notice the clues, so nothing happened."
Chai Shijing looked apologetic, "I'm sorry! It's all my fault!"
"Forget it. If I choose to be with you, I will have to face these things. I plan to kill Madam Lu to stop her from making such a fuss."
She didn't know whether the poisoning was ordered by the wife of Duke Lu, but it was definitely related to Duke Lu's mansion.
"Mrs. Gao, the eldest brother of Duke Lu's wife, Gao Qi, is the Salt and Iron Commissioner of the Salt and Iron Bureau. I have sent people to collect evidence against him and prepare to bring him down.
I have also arranged for someone to incite Duke Lu's favorite concubine, Concubine Liu, who is currently fighting for the title of Crown Prince for her son, Wan Guochao."
Chai Shijing took Kang Yueran's hand and said, "I'm sorry, I wasn't careful enough and didn't act quickly enough. Leave this matter to me, I won't let her go."
After Tian Mama's poisoning, Kang Yueran had already figured out how to fight back. "You don't have to collect evidence against Gao Qi. I have a plan to reform the salt industry that will bring him down."
