The situation had taken a turn for the worse. She pushed through the crowd and said lightly, "Wait a moment, let me ask the owner how many meters are in stock!"

She walked straight in front of Zhang Qiuhe and said: "Senior Vice Minister, could you let me first register a user's requirement with Manager?"

The latter's expression was stiff as she stood there, unable to react to the sudden turn of events.

Xu Ran's eyes lit up as he smiled at her, and said gently: "Vice Minister, money is the source of all things, and can also be the source of all evils. The differences between the two are in the human heart, and this rouge drunk beauty is the same!"

Fang Yu looked at her with admiration, then said sincerely, "Master, this rouge called Drunken Beauty is not only a music shop girl's use for bewitching men, but can also be used as a support for the ladies to salvage their husbands' feelings!"

The situation had already become like this.

Things had also turned around, but Zhang Qiuhe didn't expect a few words from her that could actually overturn the situation.

He didn't have any other choice but to hold them back. He could only show a sullen face and wave his hands weakly, ordering his men to release them.

Everyone present were all people with high statuses. Originally, they all felt that it was Myriad Herbs Pavilion that was wrong, so no matter what Zhang Qiuhe did, no one would think it was excessive. However, things were completely different.

"Give me the key!"

Almost at the same time, Xu Ran received the key from the guard and opened the chain on her wrist.

Because of the long duration of time, a purple red mark appeared on Qingning's jade-like wrist.

Even so, she felt that being able to save herself like this was very good. She didn't need to rely on others or be afraid of being abandoned.

"Pavilion Master, are you alright?"

Once Fang Yu and Zhang He obtained their freedom, they walked to her with grateful expressions on their faces.

Behind him were the ladies who couldn't help but order their wares, each exhorting them more urgently than the last.

"I'm fine!" Qingning said indifferently, "If you guys are still okay, then let's settle this first!"

The two of them nodded in agreement. After borrowing a pen and paper from the shop, they began to register their requests.

Zhang Xiuhe almost vomited a mouthful of blood as he watched, leaving with his guards.

Seeing him leave in a sorry state, Qingning heaved a sigh of relief as a light smile unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

Suddenly, a few eunuchs arrived in a hurry, coincidentally bumped into him. Both sides were furious, and when they saw who it was, they quickly changed their expressions.

The eunuch whispered a few words into Zhang Qiuhe's ear, and then he saw Zhang Qiuhe, who had a gloomy expression and was about to leave, turn around and return.

With a sneer on his face, he said, "Pass on Your Majesty's name and escort the Myriad Herbs Pavilion Master into the palace!"

Those eunuchs were sweating profusely, and behind them was a large group of Close Guard s.

Basically, as soon as Zhang Qiuhe finished speaking, he pointed his finger at the next moment.

A group of Close Guard s placed a large silver blade in front of her, "Obediently surrender, otherwise don't blame us for being impolite!"

Qingning frowned slightly, he did not retaliate at the first possible moment.

The person in the palace was completely different from a mere Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. When the Ministry of Justice dealt with cases, they would more or less discipline the criminal laws, and if the palace ordered them to be apprehended, resistance would be capital punishment.

Furthermore, the one being escorted into the palace was the Myriad Herbs Pavilion Master, so it was obvious that he did not know of her true identity.

Qingning was very confident with his outfit tonight. It was impossible for Zhang Qiuhe and the rest to link the young man whose profound energy had twisted the situation with the Second Miss, who was shining brilliantly in the sky these days. So right now, they could only wait and see.

"May I ask eunuch, what's going on?"

Xu Ran was the first to react, and asked somewhat anxiously.

Zhang Qiuhe's face did not look good as he said: "Lord Xu isn't meddling in this matter that much, could it be that you are even going to have to ask about the matters of the palace?"

Xu Ran's gentle eyes still fell on the leader of the group, not even slightly affected by his overbearing tone of voice.

"After the princess used the rouge of her Myriad Herbs Pavilion, a mess was formed. The imperial physicians couldn't do anything about it, so the emperor angrily ordered the Pavilion Master s who had come to escort the Myriad Herbs Pavilion into the palace …" A trace of hesitation flashed across the eunuch's face, and he immediately whispered a few words into the eunuch's ear.

He had long heard that the princess was rather interested in Xu Ran, but he never thought that the people in the palace would be so courteous to him.

Qingning stood a little further away, but with her excellent hearing, she could easily hear the eunuch's suppressed voice.

It was another incident caused by this rouge.

Jin Yaoyao and the ladies who used this rouge before did not have any side effects. However, this coquettish girl with an expensive body was the first to get into trouble.

Phoenix eyes swept over Xu Ran who was about to speak, and Qingning said indifferently: "I will follow you into the palace!"

"Pavilion Master!"

Fang Yu hurriedly put down the things he was doing and walked over.

When the people in the square saw this unforeseen event, some of them began whispering amongst themselves.

Zhang Qiuhe walked in front of everyone and said loudly, "The rouge sold by Myriad Herbs Pavilion has very serious side effects, from today onwards, the Ministry of Justice will seal it!"

"What side effect? Aren't they all still fine?"

The wives who had been in a hurry to order their wares were stunned. They had just been stimulated by the word 'lustful' and found it hard to accept such an unexpected turn of events.

When the eunuch saw this, he waved his horsetail whisk and said, "Take him away!"

Qingning walked out calmly. When he brushed past Xu Ran, he whispered: "Help me get the records of the buyer of the drunk beauty!"

The latter was stunned for a moment before nodding her head, "Alright."

Outside An Yu Palace, a group of imperial physicians had been thrown out to wait.

"The flower spots on the princess' face …"

"Stop talking nonsense, that is clearly the corrosion of the medicine …"

Four or five white-bearded imperial physicians argued until their faces and ears reddened.

In less than half a moment, the palace maids carrying all sorts of different types of palace points were forced out after their cups had been broken.

Kneeling on the ground in front of the palace, she moaned in persuasion: "Princess, your face will soon recover. You should at least eat some food first!"

The only response they got was a crisp breaking sound.

Emperor Beihe walked over with large strides. When the door to the hall opened, he heard a voice from inside, crying out in a delicate voice, "Don't come in, scram for me!"

The flying jade pillow crashed at his feet, his brows wrinkled into a single word: "Chuan".

"Your Majesty …"

The Imperial Noble Consort Xie's face was covered by a veil, and at this moment, her expression could not help but stiffen as she said: "An Yi was also temporarily depressed, and did not have any intention of disrespecting the Emperor!"

Emperor Beihe's expression slightly relaxed, she then turned her head and scolded the people of the palace softly: "What are you still standing around for, go in and clean up, tell the princess that the father has come to see her!"

"Yes sir!"

The palace maids cried out like mosquitoes.

Eunuch Wang stepped forward and comforted her, "Your Majesty, Imperial Noble Consort, please be at ease. Close Guard has already left the palace to retrieve his Myriad Herbs Pavilion, and we also need the Purple Dawn Monastery's Daoist Jing Ting to return soon.

Just as his words fell, he heard a burst of announcement from outside the palace: Reporting to Your Majesty, the Myriad Herbs Pavilion Master has received it!

At the same time, Qingning stood outside the Flying Flower Palace.

Upon entering, she faced the pale Emperor Beihe and bowed respectfully, "Your majesty!"

Emperor Beihe's face was gloomy, sizing her up from top to bottom for a moment.

The sound of the wind on the night of April made her feel an indescribable pressure, just like the calm before a storm.

The one who had arrogantly set fire to the hall had been converted into a sobbing sound at the right time.

The people in the hall were helpless as they looked at the people walking in and out of the hall.

Even the father of the monarch was unable to ease her pain, which only made the person inside feel pitiful and helpless.

The Imperial Noble Consort Xie's vicious expression flashed past his eyes, and then, after that, he anxiously tried to suppress his appearance with all his might, "Your Majesty, An Yi, she … "I can't wait any longer …"

With that, she quickly walked into the hall.

Qingning raised his eyes, just in time to see the killing intent in Emperor Beihe's eyes. "Immediately treat the princess, we might be able to leave you with an intact corpse!"

In all the years that the Emperor had reigned over the country, there had never been such a time where he could determine life or death.

Even the elderly, Eunuch Wang and the others beside him all held their breaths.

The imperial physicians were all hanging their heads in silence, afraid that they would lose their temper.
