Moreover, the distinguished guests that Bicui said were just weird relatives from Zhang Xiuli’s family, and had nothing to do with being distinguished!

In the last life, Lin Zhiyu had heard about these people. They came here to suck the blood of the Prime Minister's Mansion. They were good at eating, drinking, prostitution, and gambling. They also acted recklessly in the capital in the name of the Prime Minister's Mansion, bringing the Lin family into disrepute. A clean one!

In the end, Lin Xiang couldn't stand it any longer and forced himself to step in and send these people away. As a result, Lin Zhiyu got the reputation of being mean and cold-blooded.

It was this group of people who made Old Mrs. Lin so angry that she became ill and passed away not long after. Zhang Xiuli naturally became the real mistress of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"If I really want to say that the married daughter throws away the water, I'm afraid my aunt is confused. The person who is really married now is the second sister. I am still the legitimate eldest daughter in the prime minister's house."

Lin Zhiyu curled her lips, and Qiaoxiu immediately understood. She stepped forward and pushed Bicui aside: "Elder girl, go to the east chamber to rest first. Daily necessities will be delivered later. If there is any furniture you want to replace, please directly Just go to the shop under the name of Princess Shangyang to make a reservation."

Bicui was blocked by Qiaoxiu and could only watch Lin Zhiyu walking to the east chamber. She was so angry that she turned around and went to complain to Zhang Xiuli.

After hearing Bicui's words, Zhang Xiuli gritted her teeth in anger: "I kept the east chamber specially. The one used by Hua'er to sleep in was not touched by the servants. When this Lin Zhiyu came back, he actually wanted to rob Hua'er. The place!"

"Madam, the eldest lady came back from the palace this time, and she brought an extra maid with her. She looks like An Jingjing, but her hands are very strong! Just now I tried to stop her, but she scratched my wrist and it hurt!"

Bicui made a sad face and showed Zhang Xiuli her red wrist.

"Maid?" Zhang Xiuli was dumbfounded, "She lives in the palace, how come she has an extra maid?"

"Look, it's just like Lin Xiaolian, who picked it up from a beggar pile! Madam will just find a reason to sell it." Bicui said bitterly.

Zhang Xiuli's mind suddenly turned around: "No, no, this maid must have a lot of background! When King Jin returned to the capital, he caught the Prime Minister's Mansion and did some hard work, which made my mother and the others afraid to come. , Let me see, these are most likely from King Jin!"

Bicui panicked: "What, what should we do? If the incident in the wing reaches King Jin's ears, and if we publicize it in a big way, the prime minister will be angry again!"

Zhang Xiuli bit her lower lip. Bicui was right. Recently, for some reason, Lin Pengsheng was being harassed everywhere in the court. The last time he came back from a reception banquet, he even scolded himself severely.

"If she wants to live, let her live first. When the master comes back, I will find a way to make Lin Zhiyu move out in despair!" Zhang Xiuli said fiercely.

……

East chamber.

Servants came in and out, bringing in Lin Zhiyu's things one by one.

Lin Xiaolian walked around the east wing and was very envious: "When I came here before, I didn't dare to take a good look. Not only is the east wing spacious and bright, but the things used in it are much better than those in the west wing!"

"Eldest girl, there are two girls' clothes in this cabinet. What should I do with them?" Qiao Xiu was confused as she looked at the clothes in her hands that had nowhere to put them.

Lin Zhiyu thought for a while: "Send it to Aunt Zhang."

It would be a pity to throw away this dress. It is better to send it over and let Zhang Xiuli be angry.

The servants were quick with their hands and feet, and the house was cleaned in a short time. Lin Zhiyu didn't have many things, so after clearing out Lin Minghua's things, it became a little more concise.

Lin Zhiyu looked around and was extremely satisfied.

"Go back and move all these extra shelves and replace them with bookshelves." Lin Zhiyu ordered, "Also replace these curtains."

"Yes."

The servants responded repeatedly.

"Miss, what should I do if the master asks me about it later?" Lin Xiaolian looked at the newly renovated east wing and suddenly felt worried. Lin Zhiyu didn't care: "Since he allowed Aunt Zhang to clear away all my things, he should have thought that there would be a big fuss when I came back."

"By the way, where's grandma?"

Lin Xiaolian replied: "I heard that the old lady went to the temple to worship Buddha. I don't know if she can come back today."

"Big girl, what is this?" Just as he was talking, a low cry came from Qiaoxiu's side.

She was holding a packet of medicinal powder in her hand, most of which seemed to have been used.

Lin Zhiyu stepped forward and took a look. The smell seemed familiar.

"Qiaoxiu, you, why do you have a nosebleed?" Lin Xiaolian was startled by Qiaoxiu and quickly took out the handkerchief.

Lin Zhiyu reacted quickly and snatched the powder away: "This powder is poisonous, don't smell it again!"

She had been given Baidujiejie by Master Ji Yan before, so the powder had no effect on her. It only made Qiaoxiu suffer, and the nosebleeds could not be stopped.

Lin Xiaolian panicked: "What on earth is this? If you smell it, you will bleed. If someone eats it, won't you die?"

These words awakened Lin Zhiyu.

When Mo Ju pretended to be sick before, a lot of ants were densely packed and dead under the food box that Mo Ju sent. Maybe this was the poison left at that time.

Qiaoxiu covered her nose, took out a small medicine bottle from her arms, and poured out two small pills, one red and one black.

She swallowed the red pill directly, and within a moment, the nosebleed stopped.

"This red pill is the antidote to all poisons. It can be used to protect yourself when you are on a mission." Qiao Xiu calmed down and explained to Lin Zhiyu.

Lin Xiaolian pointed to the black pill and asked, "What about this one?"

"This is poison. If you fail the mission and are caught, you will suffer less."

Qiaoxiu put the black pill back into the medicine bottle: "Girl, please give me this powder. Master Ji Yan may know what kind of poison this is."

Lin Zhiyu nodded, wrapped the remaining half pack of powder tightly with a handkerchief, and took another small box to put it in.

Qiao Xiu said strangely: "Most of our poisons are prepared by ourselves. You can't buy such highly poisonous things outside. If ordinary people want it, they can only buy it on the black market. How can it be found in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

After saying this, Lin Zhiyu also frowned. Aunt Zhang was so weak and rarely went out. Where could she buy medicine?

Moreover, Aunt Zhang loves Lin Minghua the most. Why would she put the remaining poison in Lin Minghua's room?

"Without further delay, I'll go now. Master Ji Yan has come and gone without a trace. He should still be in Prince Jin's Mansion now, but he won't know where he went in a few days."

Qiaoxiu also realized the seriousness of the problem, took the box from Lin Zhiyu, and took a shortcut through the window.

Lin Xiaolian sighed: "It's great to know Qing Gong."

"Big girl."

Not long after, Butler Li's voice sounded outside the door.

"Lunch is ready. The master asked me to treat the girl to dinner."
