Chapter 1662 - 1664: The Two Brothers Start Quarreling

"I’ve been having Ye Yi investigate that person, but we haven’t found any leads yet." Of course, he had thought of this too, and not only that, he had also investigated Prince Le’s businesses.

"No, even if we investigate, we won’t find anything. Who knows how deeply he’s hidden?" Yang Chuxia pondered for a moment and then said, "Why don’t we fight fire with fire? He likes to poison others, so we can also poison him. I don’t believe that if the master is poisoned, the one who knows poison won’t come out to save him. Let Mu Shaoling concoct some potent poison, and if it kills him, all the better; it’ll be a clean finish."

Ye Zi’an chuckled lightly at her words, "Killing him with poison might be impossible, as someone who’s been dealing with poison for a long time probably has some defenses against it. We can’t target him directly, but we can target those around him. Using that opportunity, we should be able to find the one who knows poison."

"Right. It’s best to capture the person alive; then we can learn a lot about Prince Le from them."

"Alright, I’ll arrange for this." Ye Zi’an nodded with a smile, "You just take good care of yourself, my dear."

"Mm, I know."

Yang Chuxia smiled and turned to hug him with a kiss. Naturally, Ye Zi’an wouldn’t miss a kiss offered by his wife, soft as a gentle cloud, enveloped in an ethereal mist.

The next day, Ye Zi’an got up early and went to Prince Zhuang’s Mansion. No one knew what the two talked about, but the news spread from Prince Zhuang’s Mansion that the two brothers had a big fight. The argument was so heated that Prince Zhuang angrily declared he no longer had this cousin, and Ye Zi’an retorted that he no longer had this brother.

Within less than a morning, news of their quarrel spread throughout the Capital City, leaving people baffled, even Yang Chuxia was puzzled.

She thought Ye Zi’an went to discuss the poisoning issue with Baili Yan, but didn’t understand why it led to a quarrel. She wanted to ask, but Ye Zi’an hadn’t returned to the mansion.

Just as she was worrying, not waiting for Ye Zi’an, another group arrived.

The Old Madam of the Luo Family came, bringing along her eldest and second daughters-in-law, and her legitimate granddaughter.

"Madam, the Luo Family is here." Yang Chuxia was pondering in the bamboo courtyard when Mingcui came in and said.

"The Luo Family? What are they here for?" Yang Chuxia raised an eyebrow slightly, recalling what Linhao said last night. She thought she knew why they had come. After a pause, she asked, "Where are they now?"

"In the front hall."

"Alright, you come with me to take a look." Yang Chuxia then turned to a young maid in the courtyard and said, "Go to the young lady’s courtyard and tell her the Luo Family is here. If she wants to come out and meet them, she can come; if not, she should stay in her courtyard."

"Yes, Madam, I understand. I’ll tell the young lady right away."

After the young maid left, Yang Chuxia said to Mingcui, "This young maid looks pleasant and seems clever. Promote her, keep her by your side, and train her so she can take over your duties."

"Is Madam going to use her? Isn’t Ming Lan around?"

"Have you lost your sense? There are only you and Ming Lan by my side. When you marry, only Ming Lan will be left, so we need another one."

"True, it’s my oversight."

On the way, Yang Chuxia asked again, "Has your mother set a date for the wedding? Ye Wu doesn’t have family, so your mother should take care of him more."

"My mother said she chose a date in October, but the specific day needs Madam’s decision." Mingcui always felt a bit shy talking about her own matters, her voice slightly softer.
