Staring at Ye Jingxuan standing in front of her, Consort Shu said coldly, "As you wish, I'll help you this time, but I hope you can keep your mouth shut. If I find out that you leak any information about me, then you'd better not blame me for being cruel!"

"Consort Shu, it's not that you are helping me but that we're helping each other." Ye Jingxuan smiled.

Consort Shu's face changed again and then she took a deep breath, "Indeed, both of us will benefit from this matter, but Ye Jingxuan, too many intrigues and plots lead to bad consequences! Aren't you afraid of karma?"

Karma?

Ye Jingxuan sneered, "If you aren't afraid of it, why should I be?"

"Hum!" Consort Shu snorted, put on her hat and angrily left. The moment she walked out of the door, a killing intent flickered through her eyes. Ye Jingxuan must not live! Otherwise, he would threaten her with her secrets again!

It never occurred to Ye Jingxuan that due to his action, Consort Shu had made up her mind to kill him…

Seeing Consort Shu leave, a hamster snuck out of a corner of the room. Glancing at Ye Jingxuan with his cunning eyes, he quickly flashed away.

"Master!"

As soon as Milk Tea ran into Yun Luofeng's room, he spotted that his master was lying on Yun Xiao and he hurriedly covered his little eyes with his paws, shouting, "I didn't see anything. Please go on."

Yun Luofeng glanced at him and asked, "Where were you just now?"

Hearing her question, Milk Tea shouted excitedly, "Master, I went to Ye Jingxuan's room to collect information about the assassination that happened a few days ago, only to overhear an important conversation!"

Yun Luofeng raised her eyebrows and signaled him to continue.

Milk Tea smiled insidiously, "Just now, a woman who was called Consort Shu by Ye Jingxuan snuck into the Ye Family in disguise! I heard them say that it was this Consort Shu who poisoned the Empress."

Yun Luofeng paused and her face turned solemn. Then she got out of the bed and sat down at the table. "And?"

Ye Jingxuan invited Consort Shu here? This meant a lot.

Milk Tea got more excited. "Ye Jingxuan planned to ask a Ye Family elder to submit a letter to the Emperor, claiming that you were volunteering to treat the Empress and that you were willing to die as an apology if you couldn't cure the Empress."

Yun Luofeng slightly narrowed her eyes, a dangerous gleam in her eyes.

At the moment, Yun Xiao had walked behind her, holding her tightly and gently rubbing his chin against her shoulder. "Let me kill Ye Jingxuan."

"No," Yun Luofeng smiled wickedly, "Ye Jingxuan is no threat to us! But if he wants to set me up in this way, why does he need Consort Shu's help?"

Milk Tea grinned and continued, "Master, Ye Jingxuan has prepared more than one trap for you! He knows that the Emperor is a wise man who will not kill you even if you can't cure the Empress, so he asked Consort Shu to poison the medicine that you make for the Empress. Since the Emperor deeply loves the Empress, if she dies from your medicine, he will definitely fly into a great rage and kill you just as Ye Jingxuan wishes!"

Undoubtedly, Ye Jingxuan's plan was flawless. With Consort Shu's power in the Imperial Palace, since she was originally able to poison the Empress without being found out, she would be able to do it again!
