"C-Crown Prince Consort," the elderly female servant stammered, casting a fawning glance at Guo'an, and with a smile, she continued, "But rest assured, Consort, I've successfully sent away that young Crown Prince Consort!"
Madam Guo'an scrutinized her suspiciously. The stoic Crown Prince Consort was not one to be easily dismissed.
With a vigilant tone, Madam Guo'an instructed the man beside her to use his divine sense to scan the surroundings. After confirming the absence of any lurking strangers, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"You've done well," Madam Guo'an nodded in approval. "Cai Hui, reward her with five spirit currency."

Gratefully, the elderly female servant accepted the reward and departed. She silently commended herself for recognizing the stoic-faced young Crown Prince Consort at a glance, recalling a portrait hanging in the Consort's court that had helped her make the connection.
She had merely seen him from a distance before. During the Consort's practice session of throwing iron-headed darts in the small court, there had been a painting hanging as a target. She had discreetly inquired about the identity of the person in the painting.
Her good memory had come to her aid. If she had continued to challenge the young stoic Crown Prince Consort, who knew what would have transpired. It might have aroused suspicion, and he could have started an investigation.
If her actions had jeopardized the Consort's plans, the consequences would have been dire.
With a grin, the elderly female servant twirled a spirit currency in her hand before departing with a satisfied expression.
Unbeknownst to her, shortly after her departure, someone appeared on the treetop.
Qiao Mu furrowed her brow and scratched her head in thought.
Initially, she hadn't paid much attention to this Viscount, but to her surprise, Xuanxuan's intuition had been spot on.
It was often said that one finds what they're looking for when they least expect it, and Madam Guo'an's furtive actions indicated that she was hiding something sinister.

It was a mystery when Madam Guo'an had arrived in Tempest City, but her ability to remain concealed from the Crown Prince's spies stationed outside the city was perplexing.
Unbeknownst to Qiao Mu, Madam Guo'an had taken great care to disguise herself before journeying to Tempest City. She had maintained a low profile throughout her travels, avoiding any attention. Even her choice of carriages was unremarkable, and she had exited the capital discreetly. Had it not been for the elderly female servant's guilty conscience, she wouldn't have aroused Qiao Mu's suspicions.
This raised a curious question: why had Madam Guo'an come to Tempest City instead of fulfilling her role as Consort in the Imperial Capital? Had she impulsively captured Fifth Young Sir Qin, or was her presence here intentional?
The courtyard wasn't particularly large, and Qiao Mu casually wandered around until she stumbled upon the Fifth Young Sir, bound to a bed in a room some distance away.
If she hadn't witnessed it herself, she wouldn't have believed that Madam Guo'an had such an unusual penchant for restraining men on beds.

Qiao Mu peered through the window and noticed that Fifth Young Sir appeared to be in great distress, clearly under the influence of some sort of drug.
Miss Qiao blinked her eyes, her thoughts turning back to when she had treated him. Could it be… had this sinister Madam Guo'an administered the aphrodisiac powder that had affected him?
