As soon as Liu Banruo finished speaking, a subtle daze flashed across her face.

Gradually, her heart began to be stirred.

That mysterious tin can was actually in the other person's hands.

Originally, she had only roughly sketched out its influence in her mind, believing it to be enough to change the trajectory of a person's destiny.

However, at this moment, she couldn't help but wonder, why couldn't she use it to change her own destiny?

If she had presented the tin to the emperor personally, she might have become a key figure in this political turmoil and obtained the honor and status she had always dreamed of.

In this palace where power struggles are intertwined, those who plot treason are like rats crossing the street, and everyone wants to kill them as soon as possible.

The emperor hated these people even more, but was unable to completely eradicate them.

Liu Banruo thought, if she could help the emperor eliminate these hidden dangers, wouldn’t that be a great contribution?

Just as she was thinking about how to act, Yi Han's voice interrupted her thoughts: "Madam Liu, I have my own plan for the iron can. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to do what you have asked me to do. Please find another way."

Liu Banruo's heart tightened, she knew that Yi Han had begun to doubt her.

This young general is indeed a meticulous person and is by no means an ordinary person.

However, she couldn't help but admire her own cleverness in arousing his suspicion in such a short time.

But she also understood that she couldn't be too impatient at this time, otherwise it would only backfire.

So, she smiled and stood up and said, "In that case, I will not bother the general any more. I just hope that the general can change his mind soon. After all, the matter of the tin can is of great importance. If the general needs my help at any time, just let me know. I will be waiting at any time."

Yi Han looked at her deeply, nodded and said, "Okay." But in his heart he was secretly thinking about how to find out Liu Banruo's background so as not to be used by her.

After leaving the general's mansion, Liu Banruo's thoughts could not calm down for a long time.

She knew the cruelty and ruthlessness of this court struggle, and she was also aware of her own position in this struggle.

However, she did not want to sit and wait for death, but wanted to take the initiative and find a glimmer of hope.

In the Censorate's Mansion, Yun Xi was busy painting eggs.

This was the task given to her by Aunt Qingyang, requiring her to draw ten eggs today as food for dinner.

Although Yun Xi is not good at painting, she still tries her best to complete the task.

When she heard footsteps, she looked up and found that it was Yi Han coming.

She put down her paintbrush somewhat awkwardly and tried to explain what she was doing.

But Mei Qing answered first: "This is a task given by her aunt, asking her to draw eggs."

Yi Han was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Yun Xi to paint eggs here.

He walked over curiously to take a look at Yun Xi's painting, and found that although the eggs she painted were a little childish, they were full of childishness and vitality. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "The painting is quite interesting, like a sesame cake."

Mei Qing couldn't help laughing when she saw this: "It's just a sesame seed cake. The egg she drew can't be put into the pan! Auntie is just teasing her!"

Yun Xi felt helpless after hearing what Mei Qing said: "Watch out for your skin! If you get criticized later, I won't save you."

Mei Qing shrugged nonchalantly: "Aunt is old and hard of hearing. She can't hear what I say even when she's standing behind me."

At this moment, Aunt Qingyang suddenly appeared at the door and looked at Mei Qing with a serious face.
