Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 710 Secret

Liu Nanshi didn't care what Xiao Qingyuan said. She was immersed in her own hatred and said to herself, "What's even more infuriating is that eggless Meng Yunlan! She's such a snob. She originally thought I would marry Gu Qianhan, so she was extremely enthusiastic towards me, always holding my hand and calling me sister, and was so affectionate!"

"But after I got into trouble, she avoided me when I went to the Duke's Mansion again! She didn't even reply to my letters. I sent her something, and she threw it away!"

"So, how can the death of just Gu Qianhan be enough? The entire Gu family must die! Only then can the hatred in my heart be relieved!"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at her ferocious face and couldn't help but step back.

Now, the woman in front of him was very unfamiliar.

Is this the most talented woman in Dafeng? Is this the daughter of the Grand Councilor's family, praised by everyone? Is this the woman he once considered his soul mate?

Liu Nanshi was right in what he said. He truly regretted it to the core. How could he have loved such a woman in his previous life? He even committed suicide for her!

He is so stupid!

Outside the carriage.

Zhuying and Huayi stood on each side, guarding and not letting anyone else get close.

When Qin Xin emerged from the crowd, neither of them said a word.

Zhuying has received a lot of benefits from Qinxin in the past month. A few days ago, she was punished by Liu Nanshi for making a mistake and her arm was burned. It was only after she used the medicine that Qinxin secretly gave her that she survived.

Huayi hasn't received any benefits from Qinxin recently, but she and Qinxin have been maids together in Prince Ning's Mansion for two years. She knows Qinxin's temper and personality, and she has also seen Liu Nanshi's ruthlessness. Staying with Liu Nanshi all the time is not a long-term solution, she has to leave a way out for herself.

So, when Qin Xin came over to eavesdrop, they both pretended not to see anything.

Mo Ji, who was standing at the front of the carriage, just smiled lightly when he saw Qin Xin coming, and had no intention of reminding his master at all.

Qin Xin walked to the rear of the carriage and stood at the back to listen to the movement inside.

After listening for a while, the idea of painting came to me.

"Sister Qinxin."

Huayi's voice was soft and gentle, making sure that only Qinxin could hear it: "I have a secret to tell you."

"What secret?"

"Sister, can you help me put in a few good words with Madam Quan about what I said? I don't want to serve Miss Liu anymore. I want to go back to the palace."

"Madame Quan? Huayi, we've been away from the palace for so long, how can I still have a say in front of Madame Quan? She's the princess's personal nanny, and I don't see her on weekdays!"

"Sister Qinxin, I know that when you were in the palace, you were the most favored by Nanny Quan. Even after leaving the palace, you still have a say in her. Don't be so modest."

Qin Xin shook her head and whispered, "It's not that I'm modest, it's just that I really can't say anything, otherwise I would definitely help you!"

"Then...then can you help me speak in front of Mo Ji?"

"Mo Ji? Isn't he standing right there? If you have anything to say, just go and talk to him!"

"My relationship with him is average, so my words are not as effective as yours."

"Okay, what do you want me to say?"

"Ask Mo Ji to ask the prince for mercy on my behalf and let me serve him! You know, I am born with supernatural powers, even more powerful than the guards in the palace. I can protect the prince's safety."

"Well... I can help you pass the message, but I can't guarantee whether the prince wants you or not!"

She agreed to the painting suggestion and was extremely happy. She quickly said, "As long as Sister is willing to intercede for me, I will always remember Sister's kindness!"

Qin Xin waved her hands: "Alright, stop wasting time, tell me, what's your secret?"

"Actually, Chu Yanluo is not dead!"

"what?!"

"She actually faked her death."

"This is impossible! So many people were watching. The Wanhua Tower is no pushover. And the prince saw it himself. How could she have faked her death? How could she have fooled so many eyes?"

"Oh, Sister Qinxin, just believe me. I won't lie to you."

Huayi whispered, "I served Miss Shen together with Chu Yanluo, and I know her best. She has all kinds of strange and bizarre medicines. She said they were secret recipes she got from an old doctor in her past life and the life before that. They are all amazingly effective, but they are extremely harmful to the body and should not be used casually."

"Oh, now that we're talking about this, I might as well tell you another secret. Didn't Chu Yanluo heal Miss Shen's injury before? In fact, she gave Miss Shen an addictive and banned drug!"

"I guess Miss Shen's drug addiction must have kicked in right now. Chu Yanluo said that addiction attacks are extremely painful and can make people lose their minds!"

Qin Xin touched her chin and said, "Is this actually the case? Last time I went to the Shen family, I didn't notice anything unusual about Miss Shen!"

Huayi quickly said, "On weekdays, when the drug addiction isn't acting up, he's just like any other person. Only when the drug addiction strikes does he become half-human, half-ghost. I guess Chu Yanluo has been planning this all along, to use that drug to control Miss Shen!"

Qin Xin nodded: "Okay, I understand."

It is easy to find out and verify whether Shen Mingxuan is addicted to banned drugs. Qin Xin feels that Huayi will not lie to her about this matter.

"Do you have any other news? Tell me all about it."

"No more, that's all."

Huayi looked at Qinxin eagerly: "Sister, I have told you everything I know. You must help me speak well of me to Mo Ji and ask him to mention me more in front of the prince every day. I am loyal to the prince!"

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will help you."

Huayi's eyes instantly turned red, and she said gratefully, "Thank you, sister. Thank you!"

After she finished speaking, she returned to the left side of the carriage and continued to guard there as if nothing had happened.

Using two "secrets" that were meaningless to her in exchange for a chance to return to Xiao Qingyuan, this deal was a good deal no matter how you looked at it!

What does Chu Yanluo's death, whether real or fake, have to do with her? She won't get any benefits from keeping Chu Yanluo's secret!

In the carriage, Liu Nanshi and Xiao Qingyuan were still arguing. Huayi vaguely heard words like "Gu family" and "frame-up", but she couldn't hear the details clearly because soon, both people in the carriage consciously lowered their voices. It was obvious that what they were talking about was not to be revealed.

In addition, there was a lot of noise outside, everyone was talking about Chu Yanluo, and the crowd drowned out the noise in the carriage.

Huayi couldn't help but move closer and pricked up her ears to listen carefully to the movement inside.
