Hearing this, Yan Ruyu said calmly: "So, you don't know what valuable things are. That's not what you said just now."

Madam Mu bit her lip. "I don't know much else, but I do know one thing."

She raised her eyes to look at Huo Changhe, her eyes a little secretive.

Huo Changhe was a little angry at her look. Yan Ruyu asked, "Are you referring to Mu Baodi's matter?"

"If that's the case, there's no need to mention it."

"It's not Mu Baodi," Mrs. Mu's eyes flashed with sarcasm, "She is really blinded by her desires. She doesn't even think about why she has the right to do so."

"A divorced woman, of what age, not pretty, not smart, yet still dreaming..."

Mrs. Mu didn't dare to mention Huo Changhe.

"When she went to seek a marriage partner, she was originally matched with someone. But who knows how she...something went wrong. This marriage is considered useless."

"They also require prudent and feasible actions. For example, Mu Baodi's actions are just imaginary and impossible to achieve."

Yan Ruyu was a little curious: "Who did you match her with initially?"

She suddenly thought of something: "It can't be the butcher you mentioned before..."

"Yes," Madam Mu said, "The Ding family was also exiled here and served in the army. I heard they are quite famous. I heard that the emperor is considering recruiting them recently."

I haven't heard of this Yan Ruyu.

She glanced at Huo Changhe, and Huo Changhe's tone turned colder: "Ding Xianyuan was once known as Qi Delong."

Yan Ruyu thought of the Qi family. They were all very lovely. They had written to her before the New Year and sent someone to deliver a cart of gifts.

Madam Mu nodded: "Yes, that's the name."

"Go on."

Madam Mu added: "I thought about Mu Baodi's refusal, but I didn't care. It doesn't matter if she doesn't want to. I can just get Mu Liangze to agree when the time comes."

"But there were two problems with this incident. First, Mu Baodi didn't like the man with the surname Ding, and second, Mu Liangze insisted on letting Mu Baodi go back to the Yuan family for some reason."

Yan Ruyu thought to herself, what else could it be? Of course it’s because of the mine.

Now that I think about it, it must have been Mu Liangze who discovered this secret by coincidence. He is not as confused and weak as he appears to be. Maybe he found out something in private and realized something. After confirming that the Yuan family had a mine, he wanted to use Mu Baodi to take it for himself.

"I'm not interested in Mu Baodi's affairs," Yan Ruyu said coldly, "What do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is, Cheng family," Madam Mu said quickly, "Mu Fengyao is seeking beauty and marriage, both of which have been effective."

Yan Ruyu recalled the two times she had met Cheng Fengyao before. Yes, Cheng Fengyao had indeed become more beautiful.

She felt a little strange at the time, and always felt that there was something different about Cheng Fengyao, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

Yan Ruyu looked calm: "How can it be effective?"

"Mr. Mo has two rather mysterious people under his command, one is called Ghost Hand and the other is called Ghost Eye. They both have strange names that sound scary, and their abilities are also amazing."

"The ghost hand can pinch and push bones to reshape them. The ability of the ghost eye..." Madam Mu paused, "I'm not really sure. I only know that one of his eyes is green, like glass."

"Mr. Mo is really capable," Yan Ruyu said with a smile, and it was hard to tell whether it was a compliment or a mockery, "to have been able to gather so many extraordinary people."

Madam Mu forced a smile and said, "Sir, you are wise and have great skills. You understand the affairs of the court and can hide in the underworld. Naturally, many people are willing to form an alliance with him."

Yan Ruyu keenly grasped several key points: the court, the underworld, and alliances.

"Can Cheng Fengyao's appearance be changed by the ghost hand?" Yan Ruyu asked.

"That's right," Madam Mu nodded, her tone firm, "If Ghost Hand and Ghost Eye go together, things will change."

"Her goal is also very clear." Madam Mu glanced at Huo Changhe, "I think the princess already knows it."

Huo Changhe's face looked a little dark.

Yan Ruyu smiled sarcastically, not taking it seriously: "Just because two people who are not worthy of being seen in public even use the word ghost in their names, they dream of marrying into the palace? Are they looking down on the prince, or are they looking down on this princess?"

Madam Mu pursed her lips. She didn't dare to answer such a question.

"Go on."

"That's the plan, but I don't know how to implement it," Madam Mu said anxiously, "Princess, I did do some wrong things, but I didn't harm anyone. I hope you can forgive me and reunite us."

"You are asking me to let you go, to let you go, and to let your son go. These are two lives," Yan Ruyu's eyes were filled with coldness. "You haven't harmed anyone. The former Madam Mu, Mrs. Wu, and the military rations that were transported away, all of which you are responsible for, can you escape responsibility?"

"You've done so many things, and you want to get away with it by saying you haven't harmed anyone?" Yan Ruyu's tone was as sharp as a knife. "Who gave you the face?"

Judging from what Madam Mu said, she had already said everything she knew, and Yan Ruyu didn't want to waste any more time talking to her.

Huo Changhe stepped forward, subdued her in two moves, pressed her acupoints so that she could no longer speak, tied her up and threw her into the outer room.

Yan Ruyu glanced at Madam Wu and said, "As for you."

Madam Wu's eyelashes drooped slightly, hiding the emotions in her eyes. She was obviously different from Madam Mu.

Yan Ruyu had no leverage over her.

"Is it a pity that you didn't make it to the last step and achieve what you wanted in your heart?"

Mrs. Wu's eyelids twitched.

Of course it's a pity.

From the initial decision to go to the Wu family, to being patient and lurking, to secretly observing the situation, people like Madam Mu were observed by her secretly.

Finally, go to Shenyuan Temple, meet Mr. Mo, and make a deal with him.

Replace the original face - the face that had been in the Wu family for too long.

She even hates looking at herself.

She desperately needs a new life.

Yan Ruyu asked again: "Want to change your face, start your life anew, say goodbye to the past, and cut off everything."

Mrs. Wu raised her eyelids slightly.

"Who do you want to meet after you change your face?"

Mrs. Wu's eyes widened, she pinched her palms with her fingertips, and even her breathing became disordered.

Yan Ruyu's expression remained unchanged: "You have spent so much effort, paid such a high price, and even risked your life."

"For a man, is it worth it?"

Mrs. Wu breathed slightly faster: "Of course it's worth it, how could you understand!"

Yan Ruyu didn't refute, but smiled.

Madam Wu gently stroked her face with both hands and stepped back, seeming to be in a state of dismay: "You don't understand... no one will understand. All of this is worth it!"

“It’s all worth it!”

Retreating to the window, she suddenly tore the window paper apart, and without taking out the signal arrow that was sticking to her arm, she just raised it up and rushed out.

The signal arrow screamed sharply and went straight into the clouds.

Madam Wu seemed to have lost her soul just now, but now she has recovered as usual. She laughed coldly and said, "Do you think you can still leave, Princess?"
