"I just want to ask, since Matriarch wanted to participate in your birthday celebration, did you already know that it was me who came up with the idea for you?" Concubine Lin carefully thought this in her heart, not knowing if she really understood it or not.

"So this is the reason why you came back so quickly, Aunt?" Bing Lanyue chuckled twice, then used a handkerchief to lightly cover her mouth and continued: "In order to surprise the old ancestor, I only said that it was you who proposed the idea, and didn't elaborate it was a dance, so Aunt can rest assured."

"Don't worry!" "As a person, I am at ease. I am just afraid that the surprise would be lessened if I find out about the present in advance. Since the lady has already said so, I will stop thinking about it!" Concubine Lin scolded Bing Lanyue a thousand times in her heart, but on the surface, she spoke as if nothing had happened.

When Bing Lanyue turned to leave, she could only stomp her feet in anger to hide her unwillingness to accept this. Originally, Concubine Lin had planned for Bing Lanyue to make him hot, but she didn't expect her to be so smart as to drag him in earlier. This plan was probably going to change.

Because of Bing Ruolan's death, Matriarch kept it in her heart, and specifically ordered that this year's birthday banquet should not be held open, so she cancelled such a large program long ago, afraid that the people up there would find him guilty, and that if Bing Lanyue were to dance on the day of the birthday banquet, she would clearly reject's idea, and disgrace the old man.

If Bing Lanyue did not say it out for Matriarch to hear, then Concubine Lin could have pushed it away on that day. But now, Concubine Lin could only sigh in her heart, and appeared to be helpless.

Young miss, your move is really brilliant, look at the anxious look on Concubine Lin's face, she must have something in her heart! Nian Qiu's face revealed a look of excitement, her hands becoming fists, her footsteps becoming a lot lighter.

Although she was not as lively as Chun Er, but after experiencing this period of time with Bing Lanyue, she had become more cheerful, and was no longer as weak and weak as before, where she was bullied by others.

"Alright, how big of a deal is it? If Concubine Lin had something on her mind, she would only look for me tomorrow. Today was just to confirm it! " Bing Lanyue sat at the table in her room and sipped on her hawthorn tea, a smile on her face.

"Then should I prepare a way to welcome the Concubine Lin?" Qing Qiu blinked her beautiful big eyes, which flickered with some kind of evil intentions. Bing Lanyue helplessly shook her head, what was this girl thinking about?

"As usual, foxes are always very cunning. If you are too attentive, it would not be good if you aroused suspicion!" Bing Lanyue yawned, she just wanted to go to sleep. Ever since she came to the ancient times, this drowsiness had gotten bigger and bigger, and she had also gained a lot of weight. She didn't know if she would become a pig instead of a worm if this went on.

Qing Qiu, who was familiar with Bing Lanyue's habits, had already prepared a blanket for her. She gave Bing Lanyue some hot water to wash her face and feet, allowing him to lie down peacefully.

The morning of the first day was exactly as Bing Lanyue had expected. The Concubine Lin came over with an early breakfast and a friendly smile on her face. She pulled Bing Lanyue's hand and said a bunch of nonsense.

Bing Lanyue was also patiently putting on an act with her, waiting for her to step into the main topic. Her eyes were bright and calm, giving off an unfathomable feeling.

"Lan Yue, there's something I thought about for a while last night, so I specially came over to discuss with you today." Madam Lin's face showed hesitation, he patted on the back of Bing Lanyue's hand and smiled.

Hearing Concubine Lin's words, she lightly drank a mouthful of hot tea, and then slowly said, "Aunt, if you have anything to say, just say it, I'm listening!"

Yesterday, after you left, the Matriarch left me to sit down for a while to talk about the preparations for the birthday feast. He said that he did not want to open this year's opera and so on to cancel it. Concubine Lin carefully looked at Bing Lanyue's reaction. Seeing that she had always been very docile with her eyes lowered, his heart became even more perturbed.

If Concubine Lin hadn't seen the scene of Bing Lanyue taking care of her servant, she would have thought that Bing Lanyue was as easy to deal with as before. However, after that incident, she did not dare to underestimate this girl.

"Then does Aunt have any new ideas?" Bing Lanyue put down the teacup in her hand and said with a smile.

Looking at Bing Lanyue, the laughing Concubine Lin had a bad taste in her mouth, but she couldn't say what was wrong with him. She could only smile apologetically and say: "For a moment, I don't have any good ideas, I'll listen to you, right?"

After flipping through all the books in the library, Bing Lanyue already had an idea in her heart. However, because she was afraid that the Concubine Lin would be secretly playing tricks on her, she did not say it out. Now, she could only sigh and say, "I don't have any good ideas.

Right now, the Old Ancestor has everything he needs. As long as you put in some effort, I think the Old Ancestor will be happy. Concubine Lin had an amiable face, she couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Bing Lanyue could only reply with a few words of idle chatter before sending Concubine Lin off. Her eyes were deep, and it was unknown what she was thinking about.

"Miss, the letter you wanted me to send to National Duke’s Mansion has a response!" Qing Qiu took the letter that had pointed out earlier and passed it to him.

She took the letter in her hands and opened it to see that it was Monarch Moli's reply. She roughly swept through the dust on the letter, and then softly said: "Go and take out the snake I told you to keep a while ago. Put it on the stage in the small alley, and don't let anyone see it!"

"Alright!" Qing Qiu didn't ask Bing Lanyue what he wanted to do and agreed instead. Thinking about the things in the box made her feel a wave of disgust. Miss, what are you preparing to do!

In the blink of an eye, it was already night. Bing Lanyue untied the bun on her head and allowed Ninja Dong to tie up her hair with a ribbon, yawning as she looked at herself in the mirror. She thought that Concubine Lin would also probably be removing her makeup this time.

Cobra was an extremely dangerous item, and an ordinary person would not be willing to capture it, they would only be able to do so if they met an experienced snake-catcher, and there were only a handful of people in the capital who had the ability to do so.'s letter was first to give Monarch Moli a silver note, and secondly to ask him to investigate if the snake-catcher sold him a snake to Concubine Lin.

Just as Bing Lanyue expected, the Concubine Lin's personal servant immediately bought a cobra for five taels of silver. After confirming that Bing Lanyue would not wait for death, the Concubine Lin's room was shocked today.

"How is the girl today?" Concubine Lin took off the golden hairpin on his head and placed it on the dressing table. When she raised his head to look at herself in the mirror, she saw a black, flat snake hanging on the mirror.

The maidservants and Concubine Lin were caught unprepared, they screamed and almost fell to the ground, hearing the voices of the maidservants, they immediately rushed in, seeing the 'terrifying' snakes' gasping for air one after another, they thought to themselves, who would actually have the guts to scare Concubine Lin like that.

"Madam, I'll get someone to investigate it!" A servant girl by the side of Concubine Lin quickly regained her senses and quickly helped Concubine Lin up. She secretly thought that she must perform well, and took the chance while Concubine Lin's trusted aide, Ru Xin, was still injured and sick to replace her.

Concubine Lin also slowly recovered from her shock, it was obviously done by Bing Lanyue, and she did it without anyone noticing, it must have been supported by experts, it looked like she was really different from the past, she immediately stopped Ru Zui and said, "No, this matter ordered for no one to know, just get someone to throw this thing into the kitchen and burn it, don't leave any traces!"

Although Ru Zui didn't understand why Concubine Lin didn't investigate, sshe still took the initiative to take the fire pincer from the kitchen and insert the snake into a cloth bag. Then, he threw the snake into the barrel of the fire cleanly, allowing Concubine Lin to have an impression of her.

All the women with the slightest bit of ambition in their General's Estate knew that the current general was only someone from the Concubine Lin, that there was no one in the master's room, and that she was basically being pampered in her own room. Although there was the young miss, her weak personality meant that Bing Ruolan's life was in her hands, and as for the Matriarch, it was eight out of ten days, she was either lying on a bed or was in the main hall.

So, in a place filled with ambition, there were just too many smart people. Ru Zui was just a small third-rate maid, if not for today, she probably wouldn't even be able to enter the Aunt's inner chamber even once a month. How could she not perform well today?

"What's your name?" Concubine Lin took a sip of tea to calm herself down. The servant girl behind him had already untied her hair and tied it with a red ribbon.

Ru Zui lowered her head, and with a humble and cautious look, she replied the Concubine Lin: "Reporting to Madam, this servant is your third tier servant, Ru Zui."

"My servant? I've seen it a few times, but I didn't expect it to be so bold! " Concubine Lin said indifferently, no emotions could be heard, giving off a faint sense of majesty, causing Ru Zui to quickly kneel down.

"Madam usually teaches us to not panic, but today, I was scared. Although I tried my best to make up for it, it wasn't perfect. I hope Madam doesn't blame me." When Ru Zui heard Concubine Lin's words, she knew that she couldn't afford to be careless at this point in time.
