“You’d better think of a method to inform him then.”
“Don’t worry; I will say that I met her yesterday when I went to the toilet and recognized her as Qiao Lanlan.
“As for the rest, I don’t think I need to say anything more.
“Once he has eyes on Qiao Lanlan, she could forget about doing anything bad.”
“It’s fine as long as you know what you’re doing. Oh right, remember to come back for lunch after morning court. Don’t forget that the Liu Family will be sending someone over.”
“Aye, alright.
“Oh right, take some time to sort out the greenhouse and potato planting instructions. I’ll summarize them and print them out as soon as possible.”
“Okay, leave that to me.”
“It’s still early. You should sleep a little longer.” Gu Chengrui got up and started to put on his clothes.
After he left, Zhou Ying thought she couldn’t fall asleep, but drowsiness soon washed over her.
By the time she woke up, it was already late in the morning.
After breakfast, she went to the study room and took out the books she had collected in her previous life. She began to summarize them seriously.
On the other end, after Gu Chengrui left the morning court, he remembered that King Rui wasn’t attending because of his marriage.
After lunch, he rushed to the manor and found Zhou Huaiming. He told him about Qiao Lan Lan and said, “We have to let His Highness investigate her as soon as possible.
“If she’s really Qiao Lanlan, then his residence might be in danger.”
Zhou Huaiming quickly remembered who Qiao Lanlan was.
He was the one who oversaw the Qiao Family’s case back then. Most importantly, the Qiao Family almost took his life, so it was difficult for him to forget even if he wanted to.
He never expected someone to have escaped their exile.
He knew he had to investigate this properly. He quickly nodded and replied,
“I’ll remember this. I’ll personally inform His Highness.”
“Alright, I’ll leave this to you. I have to go to my manor soon.” Gu Chengrui said as he went straight home.
After Zhou Huaiming left, he went straight to King Rui’s residence. He was also hoping there would be some good food waiting for him.
As expected, King Rui was eating a bowl of sea cucumber and millet porridge when he arrived. On the side were braised beef, eggs, vegetables, and a plate of rolls.
Seeing him enter, King Rui raised his head and asked in surprise, “Why are you here so early in the morning?”
Zhou Huaiming sat opposite him and smiled. “I knew you’d definitely have a good meal today, so I specially came over to get a free meal.”
King Rui glanced at him indifferently and asked the servants to serve him a bowl, too.
It was not until they were done eating and the servants had left that he asked, “Tell me, what’s the matter? What’s so urgent?”
“No, I’m just uneasy.” When Zhou Huaiming said this, he whispered Gu Chengrui’s original words to him, “Qiao Lanlan is definitely harboring a deep hatred for us.
“I think we have to investigate this seriously. If it’s not her, great. If it’s her, there will be many things to uncover.”
After King Rui heard this, he grunted and asked someone to call Uncle Feng. After telling him what had happened, he said, “Get someone to monitor her first.
“If she did someone wrong, don’t make a sound and fish out any accomplices of hers here.”
“I understand. I’ll make the arrangements now.”
“Okay, remember to be careful.”
After Uncle Feng left, King Rui stood up and said to Zhou Huaiming, “Let’s go. I have something to tell you.”
“Ah, does coming here count as me walking into a trap?” Zhou Huaiming stood up reluctantly.
Someone informed Uncle Feng that Qiao Lanlan had drugged Gu Wanning’s chicken soup that afternoon.
Uncle Feng was shocked and immediately rushed to the courtyard where Gu Wanning was staying.
Just before Gu Wanning could drink her chicken soup, he immediately went forward and said, “Secondary Consort, His Highness have something to say to you.”
Gu Wanning immediately put her bowl down and asked, “Uncle Feng, what instructions does His Highness have for me?”
