Chapter 24: Retaliate Against Them With Their Own Methods
lly.Qing Luo on the side chimed in again: “Young Master, over these two years you’ve been away to Li Zhou, Miss has sent you hand-knitted leg warmers every year. She also specially went to Wan'an Temp..."Your Majesty, Empress Shu, please spare me! I am innocent!" The poor maid girl only now understood what was happening and knelt on the ground, kowtowing frantically for mercy.
"I saw it with my own eyes! You dare to cry injustice! You've done such a vile thing, you must have anticipated the consequences. Do you intend to drag your siblings and parents down with you" Jiang Shufei glared fiercely at the palace maid.
The palace maid understood. If she didn't die, her family would likely be implicated. She had no choice. Tears streaming down her face, she resigned herself to her fate and closed her eyes: "It is all my fault. I am willing to die!"
"Bring him here! Drag him away!" Jiang Shufei didn't hesitate any longer. She was naturally worried that if the Empress arrived later, things would really be troublesome.

Xiao Yuge knew that Jiang Shufei was trying to silence them, but unfortunately, the Empress wasn't here. With her current status, she couldn't refute Shufei. She could only watch helplessly as the two people were killed. Although those two were pitiful, they were also hateful. If she hadn't been reborn, wouldn't everything have gone their way
In her past life, although she did everything she could to preserve her reputation, she was still branded with the stigma of infidelity. Coupled with the fact that she was later kidnapped by bandits for two days, even though nothing happened during those two days, everyone believed she had already given herself to the bandits and become an unclean woman. In this life, she changed the outcome of this situation, but added another variable, Qian Tingxuan. She didn't know if he was a blessing or a curse.
Recalling the events of today, Xiao Yufu handed over a cup of Hehua Drunk mixed with Huahuan San to the arriving drunkard. Without even needing to guess, one knew it was Xiao Yufu's doing. However, she never dreamed that in this lifetime, Xiao Yuge would know about it beforehand. As for this matter of changing clothes, it wasn't difficult to guess who had arranged it.
Jiang Shufei's son, Prince Qian Yi'an, was born with a leg ailment. Shufei knew her son couldn't vie for the throne, so she tried every means to marry her niece Jiang Zhiyi to the prince, in order to preserve the glory and wealth of the Jiang family. The Xiao sisters were undoubtedly thorns in her side.
Ginger Zhiyi Hmph! She can't move Su Fei now, so can she not move the brainless Ginger Zhiyi Dare to drug her, she is no longer a soft persimmon that can be manipulated!
Xiao Yu Ge quietly whispered something in Qing Luo's ear. Qing Luo nodded after listening, then turned and left.
In a quiet place, feeling exceptionally pleased, Jiang Zhiyi thought her plan had worked perfectly. She was so happy that she almost danced with glee, instructing the maid beside her to bring her some delicious food. With a triumphant smile and humming a little tune, she thought about how Xiao Yu Ge would be ruined now. She imagined that soon, the position of Crown Princess would be hers, and joy bubbled within her like it could burst.
Suddenly, a figure quickly flashed past her face. She was startled and shouted, “Who’s there!” Looking around, there seemed to be no one there, but there seemed to be strange noises coming from the front again. Driven by curiosity, she followed the sound, thinking that since she was familiar with this palace, she wouldn't get lost. Besides, she didn't bother waiting for the maids to catch up.
The strange sound seemed to be coming from the house ahead. She gently pushed open the door, only to find that the person inside was her cousin—Xian Wang Qian Yi An!
"Cousin, how did you get here"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Zhiyi, it's you!" Qian Yi'an was quite surprised to see Jiang Zhiyi arrive alone. "This is where I usually paint," he said. Because one of his legs was congenitally lame, he didn't like interacting with people on a daily basis and would lock himself up in this place to paint.
"My dearest sister, how did you come to be here"
"I just thought I saw someone coming this way, so I came over to take a look." When Jiang Zhiyi saw that it was her cousin, she naturally let down her guard and said as she admired his painting: "Cousin, I didn't expect your paintings to be so good! You truly are the greatest painter in our Great Yan Kingdom!"
"What's so great about being a painter" Qian Yi'an chuckled faintly. "It's just a way to pass the time." He was born with a leg ailment, making him ineligible for the throne. Even his position as Prince Consort was something his mother had fought for. He'd long since given up on himself.
Suddenly, with a bang, the door slammed shut!

"Who is it" Jiang Zhiyi hurried over and discovered that the door had been locked from the outside. She panicked, "Cousin, this door won't open!" In a hurry, she shouted, "Someone! Come quickly! Open the door!"
< >
"Useless, no one usually comes here." Qian Yi'an seemed very calm. He preferred peace and quiet in his daily life, and he rarely came here with attendants. Moreover, today was the Lotus Festival, so most people went there. This place was already rarely visited on normal days, let alone today.
...But they didn't notice, a strange fragrance rising from the table...
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
By the time they realized it, it would be too late.
"Brother, why do I feel so hot and uncomfortable..." Jiang Zhiyi fanned herself with her hand, non-stop, seemingly not enough, she subconsciously pulled at her collar. Just as she turned back, she saw Qian Yi'an had already arrived behind her, giving her a fright: "Brother, you, what are you going to do"
"Sister Zhiyi, I'm sorry..." Qian Yi'an, driven by lust, had bloodshot eyes as he pounced on Jiang Zhiyi like a starving wolf.
"Uncle, you can't do this to me...... Don't...... Don't...... Aunt, save me...."
Then, Jiang Zhiyi's voice was drowned out by the panting...
"I heard that His Royal Highness often paints around here. His Royal Highness's paintings are renowned throughout the Great Yan Empire. It's a rare opportunity for us to enter the palace thanks to the Empress's permission. Why don't we go and take a look"

"But we don't know the exact location, how can we see it"
"Why don't we ask the guards or Eunuch An for help"
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
"Great idea!"
Several noble ladies chatted animatedly with An Gonggong, and under the lead of several guards, they went to the painting studio...
Xiao Yu Ge walked out slowly from the side, watching the departing figures of those noble ladies, a triumphant smile curled at the corner of her lips: Empress Jiang Shu actually wanted to ruin her reputation so that her niece would have a chance to ascend the throne, then she would ruin Empress Jiang Shu's hopes entirely!
If people don't provoke me, I won't provoke them. If they provoke me, I will eradicate them completely!
< >
An eye for an eye! They used their own incense, didn't they In this lifetime, she wouldn't be the fool who allowed herself to be bullied anymore!
With a thought, his brow furrowed, and he shouted to the side: "After looking for so long, don't you come out yet!"
"Little Song's petty and vindictive nature is truly to my liking!" Qian TingXuan slowly walked out from the side, so he'd been hiding there watching the whole show
“So, you better not provoke me, or I won’t care who you are!” Knowing he wouldn’t kill her to silence her, Xiao Yuge was no longer afraid of him.re wrong!" "Wrong positions" Xiaohong looked confused and shook her head, indicating that she didn't understand. 。"I ask you, if someone were to knock on the master's door while you are in his house,...
