Su Qingcheng's cheeks were slightly red, and she turned around to look at the structure of the teahouse as if she hadn't heard Ye Tantai's teasing.

Ye Tantai just looked at Su Qingcheng's back quietly with a smile on his lips.

"I wonder if your lord has ever heard of the intoxicating drugs in Dongling Country?"

"I've heard it a little bit. It's colorless, odorless and non-toxic. It causes nothing but drowsiness."

Su Qingcheng nodded and met Ye Tantai's eyes, "Yes, Daddy was fed this medicine."

Ye Tantai was startled, a look of solemnity flashed across his originally smiling face, and his brows furrowed slightly.

You must know that if Dong Ling's drug can be found and used in Nanye, it means that someone in Nanye is conducting secret transactions with Dong Ling.

It can even be charged with treason, and the person who was drugged was Su Qingcang, the famous head of the Su family in Nanye.

"I'll find someone to find out."

Su Qingcheng looked calm and smiled calmly.

With her current strength, it would be difficult to find where Su Ruoxi's drug came from. What she had to do was to uproot the influence of Liu Rumei and her daughter in the Su family.

As for a more in-depth investigation, leave it to Ye Tantai.

"The structure of the teahouse is not very good. I want to find someone to make some changes and divide it into a lobby area and a VIP area to make this teahouse a favorite place for Nanye officials and their families."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Tantai understood the meaning behind them. Nanye's officialdom was complex, and it was inevitable that there would be cliques in private.

Having the dual identities of Miss Su's daughter and Princess Yunan sitting in charge was equivalent to putting the meetings that the officials had been meeting in the dark out in the open.

This move is risky.

If done well, this tea house will have an unshakable status in Nanye. If there is a slight mistake, it will easily reach the point of irreversibility...

Ye Tantai stared into Su Qingcheng's eyes, which were as bright as crystal clear spring water in the mountains.

"Fu Yi, call Jin Zhi over."

Su Qingcheng came here today to arrange the renovation of the teahouse. She was originally worried about where to find a master who could produce the effect she wanted. Now that Ye Tantai is here, everything is no longer a problem.

After a while, Fu Yi led a ragged man in.

Su Qingcheng looked at the person who came. Her hair was messy, and her face had a strange look, with a faint blue-gray color. The eye circles were dark and there were red threads on the eyeballs.

Can this person really do it? Su Qingcheng couldn't help but wonder.

"If you have any requests, tell him. It should be possible to transform it into what you want in less than three days."

Su Qingcheng quietly tugged at the corner of Ye Tantai's clothes, gesturing for him to take a step to speak.

"Are you sure he can do it? Why does he look like a passerby whom Fu Yi just sent to the street?"

Ye Tantai couldn't help laughing, "He made your golden needles."

She suddenly looked respectful, and even looked at Jin Zhen's appearance with pleasure.

The hermit master is low-key.

Su Qingcheng smiled sweetly, "Master Jin, come with me."

When Jin Jin heard Su Qingcheng's name, he froze on the spot with his whole body stiffened. Does the princess want me to suffer in the fire prison?

"Princess, just call me Jinzhao."

As he spoke, he followed Su Qingcheng's pace, listened carefully to Su Qingcheng's requirements for the structure of the teahouse, and put forward some of his own ideas.

Ye Tantai sat aside, his eyes never leaving Su Qingcheng, and he summoned Su Qingcheng to his side.

"Let's find out how Dong Ling's drug flowed into Nanye, and also strictly investigate which company in Nanye currently has Dong Ling's drug in hand, and report it directly to the official."

After Fu Yi accepted the order, he left. Su Qingcheng also discussed with Jin Zhen and prepared to return to the Su Mansion.

"When will the princess come home?"

"In two days."

Ye Tantai raised his eyebrows, said goodbye and left with Jin Zhi.

Su Qingcheng's image instantly grew taller in Jin Zhen's heart, knowing that His Highness was very resolute in dealing with subordinates like them.

If His Highness asks his men how long it will take to complete this task, and if they give him an ambiguous answer, the Fire Prison beckons.

I must share this with the other three people when I go back...

After Su Qingcheng returned to Su Mansion, Su Qingcang was already awake and practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard to keep fit.

"Daddy, you just needed a good rest, why did you get out of bed again?"

Su Qingcang grinned and patted Su Qingcheng's shoulder, "It's okay, my bones are weak after lying there for so many days."

She took advantage of Su Qingcang's hand and slid it across her wrist. Her pulse was steady and strong.

"Qingcheng, why are there so many people from Yunan Palace in the house?"

"I lost a hairpin that my mother left for me a few days ago. The prince found out and sent someone to help me find it."

Su Qingcang frowned slightly, "This is the first time something has been lost in the Su Mansion."

"Aunt Liu changed all the people in the house a few days ago. Maybe some people with evil intentions have sneaked in."

Su Qingcheng told Su Qingcang the matter without leaving any trace, and the latter fell into deep thought.

"I understand, this group of people cannot be kept."

After all, Su Qingcang was an old man who had been in the officialdom for so many years. Liu Rumei took advantage of his unhappiness to change everyone. The purpose can be imagined.

"Sir, dinner is ready."

Liu Rumei's gentle look froze when she saw Su Qingcheng.

She shifted her gaze to Su Qingcang with a serious expression.

"I heard that you changed all the servants in Su Mansion?"

The gloom in Su Qingcang's eyes instantly became heavier, and his tone of voice became cold and sharp.

Liu Rumei was as calm as ever, but the beads of sweat on her forehead betrayed her uneasiness.

"Yes, sir, I think they didn't serve you properly and that's why you got sick."

Su Qingcang didn't know that he had been drugged, and his brows relaxed slightly after hearing Liu Rumei's explanation.

"Then you should look for someone carefully. Qingcheng has only been back for a few days and things have disappeared."

Liu Rumei immediately knelt down and crawled to Su Qingcheng's feet.

Su Qingcheng was so disgusted that she wanted to kick him away, but because Su Qingcang was here, she held back.

"Qingcheng is all my fault. I didn't discipline my servants properly." Liu Rumei said while slapping herself in the face.

Su Qingcang took Liu Rumei's hand to stop her and used his strength to help her up.

"Leave the housekeeper's affairs to Laifu by my side. You have been in the dungeon for a while and need to recuperate."

Liu Rumei fell into Su Qingcang's arms, "Thank you for your concern, sir."

After dinner, Su Qingcheng returned to the room.

She deliberately kept a few brave and cautious women who were rescued from the underground well just in case, and she just brought them back from the palace a few days ago.

"Dad asked Laifu to send all these maids away and select new ones tomorrow. Are you willing to stay in the Su Mansion?"

At this time, the four people standing knelt down.

"Princess, you are our savior. We are willing to stay in Su Mansion and be the princess's spy."

Su Qingcheng nodded happily. During the days when they were staying in the palace, she specifically asked Wu Ya to teach them some of the simplest martial arts and medical skills.

to ensure their own safety.

"I don't need you to do anything important for me. Keep an eye on Liu Rumei and her daughter for me, and write a letter and report every seven days."

"Yes."
