In Li Gege's room, sunlight shines through the delicate window lattices onto the gorgeous carpet. Li Gege stands by the window, with a sly look in her eyes. Liu Ma Ma walks in, bows slightly, and salutes Li Gege.

"Madame Liu," "I'm here," Li Gege said softly, "Fujin has gone in."

Nanny Liu nodded, her eyes full of loyalty and awe for Li Gege.

A sinister smile flashed through Li Gege's mind, and she thought: Fu Jin has gone in, this is a good time for me to take action. She turned and walked towards Liu Ma, motioning her to come closer.

"Madame Liu," Li Gege leaned over and whispered in Madame Liu's ear, "I need you to find some clothes that have been worn by people who have had smallpox."

When Aunt Liu heard this, she was shocked. She showed an expression of disbelief on her face and asked in a trembling voice: "Gege, what are you doing? If someone finds out, you'll lose your head!"

Li Gege glanced at Aunt Liu coldly, her tone full of firmness and coldness: "Aunt Liu, you just need to follow my instructions. You don't need to ask about other things."

Madam Liu's body was trembling slightly, and her heart was filled with fear and anxiety. She looked at Li Gege's cold eyes and knew that she had no choice. She could only nod and agreed in a trembling voice: "Yes, Gege."

When Li Gege saw that Madam Liu agreed, she showed a satisfied smile on her face. She turned and walked to the door, urging her in a stern voice: "Madam Liu, go and get ready. Remember, don't let anyone find out."

Watching Liu Ma's back as she left, Li Gege's heart was filled with coldness and determination. She had to kill Honghui, only in this way would her Hongpan have a chance. She would never allow anyone to stand in her way.

……

In the shadow of the imperial palace, Nanny Liu quietly walked into Li Gege's bedroom, holding a bag of seemingly ordinary items in her hand.

"Princess, the things are here." Madam Liu's voice was low and respectful.

Li Gege did not respond directly, but kept a certain distance cautiously, looking at the package of clothes with a scrutinizing gaze. Although she had a smile on her face, her eyes revealed a hint of nervousness and expectation.

"Madame Liu, you did a great job." Li Gege finally spoke, her voice revealing satisfaction and appreciation, "This bag of clothes means a lot to me."

As she spoke, she gently took off a delicate jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Aunt Liu: "This is a reward for you. May your hard work be rewarded as it should be."

Madam Liu took the jade bracelet and smiled gratefully: "Thank you for the reward, Princess. It is my honor to serve you."

However, when it came to how to cleverly place these clothes next to Honghui, Li Gege fell into deep thought. She needed a trustworthy person to carry out this plan, and Zitan was the best candidate in her mind.

So she immediately summoned Zitan, Li Gege's personal maid, who was loyal and resourceful and always completed her tasks brilliantly.

She immediately summoned Zitan and said in a low and urgent voice: "Zitan, I have an extremely important task for you to do. You must be careful and cautious, and never let anyone know about this."

Zitan immediately knelt on the ground, his voice trembling with respect: "Please give me your orders, Princess. Zitan will do his best."

Li Gege pointed to the package next to her and said in a deep voice, "There is a piece of clothing in this package. You must deliver it to Honghui's house and make sure he can touch the clothing. This must be done without anyone noticing."

Zi Tan looked at the dress with a look of horror on her face: "Princess, what is this...what kind of dress is this? Is it too dangerous to do this?"

Li Gege's face darkened and his voice became even colder: "You don't need to ask any more questions, just follow my instructions. Remember, this is for our big plan. After it is accomplished, I will reward you handsomely."

Zitan bit her lip and tried to dissuade Li Gege: "Gege, this is too risky. If discovered, not only will you be punished, but the eldest princess and the second prince will also be implicated. Please think twice!"

But Li Gege had made up her mind at this time. A hint of cruelty flashed in her eyes: "I have made up my mind. You don't need to say anything more. I must make Honghui pay the price and let Fujin taste the pain of losing her son."

Zitan looked at Li Gege's determined eyes and knew that it was useless to persuade her. She felt mixed emotions, loyalty to Gege and fear for the future. But in the end, she lowered her head and replied in a trembling voice: "Yes, Gege. Zitan obeys your order."

Li Gege looked at Zitan's departing back, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She knew she was walking on a dangerous road, but she couldn't care less. For her purpose, she was willing to pay any price.

……

After Zitan left Li Gege's residence, she felt uneasy and guilty. She knew that she couldn't do it herself, otherwise, if she was discovered, she would not only be implicated, but also Gege and other innocent people. So, in the dead of night, she quietly left Gege's yard and came to Yiya's residence.

Yiya's courtyard was far from the Gege's residence, but Zitan was familiar with the route and soon arrived at her destination. She looked around to make sure there was no one else, then she gently knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was cautiously opened, and a lowly servant poked his head out and asked sleepily, "Who is it?"

Zitan quickly stuffed a small bag of silver into his hand and whispered, "I need your help with something. When you succeed, you will be rewarded handsomely."

When the man saw the silver, his eyes lit up, but he immediately looked around cautiously: "What is this? I can't do anything illegal."

Zitan smiled slightly and whispered, "Don't worry, I just asked you to help me pass something. I will definitely not let you get into any trouble."

The man hesitated, but was still attracted by the silver and whispered, "Well, what do you want me to pass on?"

Zitan took out the dress from her bosom, handed it to him and said, "This is the dress. You need to find an opportunity to let the little prince touch it later. Remember, you must do it without anyone noticing."

The man took the clothes, looked at the silver in his hand and Zitan's serious expression, weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll help you."

Zitan heaved a sigh of relief and stuffed some silver into his pocket as a deposit: "This is a deposit. After the matter is done, I will give you more reward money."

The man took the silver, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes, but at the same time, he also showed a bit of determination: "Don't worry, I will definitely get it done."

Zitan smiled slightly and turned to leave Yiya's yard. She knew that this matter was half successful. Next, she just had to wait for the opportunity and wait for the carefully planned conspiracy to finally succeed. However, she felt a little uneasy in her heart, as if she had a premonition of the coming storm.
