The hot steam from the hot spring and the incense burning inside come in waves in this cold winter.

After just a moment, Madam Zhao felt drowsy and her eyelids could no longer hold up and began to itch.

Just as she was nodding off and feeling drowsy, a person suddenly jumped out.

Nanny Zhao was suddenly awakened by the shock, but her mind was still fuzzy. She was about to scream and call for help when the man appeared in front of her at lightning speed and slashed at the back of her neck with a knife.

Nanny Zhao didn't even see the man's appearance clearly. She only vaguely saw a bright red dress, and then she fainted completely.

The woman in red gently pushed open the door. Inside the room, Li Shuangwan did not rest at all. Instead, he was looking at an exquisite glass cup placed on the windowsill. The sunlight shone through the window onto the wall of the cup, reflecting colorful light on the ground.

It was originally a very beautiful picture, but the light was cut into strips by an antique display stand next to it, and it was broken and looked a little hideous.

Hearing the door open, Li Shuangwan stood up, took a step forward and asked, "How is it?"

The woman in red nodded: "Don't worry, girl. Everything went well. The person has been knocked unconscious and brought here."

The woman in red knew that this girl was very important to her master, so she bowed slightly when she spoke, showing great respect.

As soon as he finished speaking, two maids came into the room carrying a woman who was dressed exactly like Li Shuangwan. They put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and pretended to be asleep.

"Bring in the old woman at the door and put her here." The woman in red pointed to the foot of the bed and instructed the two maids.

"Yes."

The two men moved the unconscious Madam Zhao into the room, and made her lean at the foot of the bed, pretending to be asleep.

After doing all this, he left the house and closed the door.

Li Shuangwan looked at the face lying on the bed, which looked extremely similar to her own. There was already a "beauty mole" on her forehead. There was deep hatred in her eyes and a sneer at the corner of her mouth.

She knew that Ling Shijiang was very capable and had countless evil ways. For him, burning a beauty mole on Zhou Caiyao's forehead was just a small matter.

Firstly, the yard was remote, and secondly, no one dared to approach it without the order of the woman in red, so the two of them talked without worries.

"Girl, could it be that she is no longer a virgin?" If so, the girl's plan will be in trouble.

Li Shuangwan shook her head: "I sent people to keep an eye on her. She wants to get close to the rich and powerful, but unfortunately the princes and nobles don't look down on her. If she wants to lose her virginity to someone, others may not be willing. During this period of time, in addition to contacting Ling Heng, she also had contact with Ling Shijiang, unless she had already lost her virginity before entering Prince Heng's mansion."

Ling Heng had fallen into trouble with Li Shuangmiao, and he himself was not a lustful person, so before gaining the absolute trust of his father and brother, he would not have any thoughts about Zhou Caiyao.

In his previous life, it was after he had firmly established himself as the crown prince that he brought this person into the crown prince's mansion in order to humiliate her.

As for Ling Shijiang, although he is physically disabled, he is very arrogant and looks down on women like Zhou Caiyao.

The woman in red stepped forward and roughly lifted up the sleeve of Zhou Caiyao's right arm, and said happily: "Look, young lady, the toad's blood is indeed there."

Li Shuangwan took out the medicine that Luo Luo had prepared in advance to cover up her uterine bleeding from her sleeve and applied it.

After a while, the toad blood disappeared without a trace.

The woman in red was surprised: "The girl actually has such a good medicine."

"It was given to me by a friend. She is a very skilled doctor. I'll introduce her to Miss Hongshuang if I have the chance."

It turned out that this person was Hongshuang, the official boss of Bishuiquan Villa who was arranging the arrangements for Concubine Shu, the Princess and others an hour ago.

Hongshuang smiled and nodded, knowing that the friend she was talking about was none other than Yang Luo, the second young lady of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, whom she had rescued some time ago. Not only did she rescue her from the mass grave, she also settled her in her own villa. The two of them called each other sisters.

She did not look down on a female doctor with a worldly perspective, and even gave money to encourage her to open a clinic. Seeing that her eyes were dark, bright and clear, and she was decisive in doing things, it was no wonder that her master regarded her as the apple of his eye.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside.

Li Shuangwan's face hardened: "Someone is coming, Hongshuang, we have to leave quickly."

Hong Shuang listened carefully and said, "It's Ling Shijiang. I'm most familiar with his footsteps."

Li Shuangwan glanced at where the bed curtain was hanging. There was a white handkerchief and a glass cup on the handkerchief. A red dot was gently jumping on the handkerchief. As long as the heat of the red dot reached a certain height, it would automatically ignite.

On the seventh day of the New Year, Luo Luo played a prank on her and ignited a silk handkerchief with a glass cup, which greatly inspired her.

The bed curtain was extremely long, dragging down, just above the silk handkerchief, and the flame could be ignited quickly if it jumped up a little. Hong Shuang must have changed it to such a long length after she told her the plan.

The bed curtains, as well as everything in the room and on the bed, had been coated with a colorless and odorless combustible material by Red Frost a few days ago.

Once the flames start, they will spread immediately, and in the blink of an eye, the fire will engulf the entire house.

In her previous life, she remembered very clearly the disgusting incident in which Ling Shijiang killed that girl in the plum garden of the eldest princess's villa. It was a sunny day on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Today she saw that the girl had indeed come, so this saved her life and also avenged the girls who were brutally harmed by Ling Shijiang.

Ling Shijiang's martial arts skills are extremely high, so it is impossible to burn him to death. But with Hong Shuang around, he can never leave here, and no one will know what will happen in the house.

Burning Zhou Caiyao to death, and then escaping from Prince Heng's Mansion safely, would not be a problem.

Hong Shuang gained Ling Shijiang's trust and he handed over the management of the entire Bishuiquan Villa to her.

But what he didn't know was that Hongshuang's real identity was Daliang's secret agent in Northern Jin.

This step of the plan also had Gu Xingyan suddenly leaving Beijin. She knew that he had paid such a heavy price for her rebirth, and she was eager to see him. She also knew about the vicious plot that Ling Shijiang had conspired with Zhou Caiyao during the New Year's Eve banquet, and she told Shu Wenbo about it when she found him to discuss how to get out.

Her original intention was to ask Shu Wenbo for help in sending someone to sneak into the princess's villa in advance, set fire to the resting house in the villa, and thus escape.

However, Shu Wenbo told her that it might be difficult to arrange people in the villa. Although the eldest princess was arrogant and domineering, she never trusted others easily.

As for the nearby Bishuiquan Villa, although Ling Shijiang is the behind-the-scenes owner, the person who actually manages this villa is Hongshuang, who is highly trusted by Ling Shijiang. Her real identity is Daliang's secret agent in Northern Jin and is absolutely trustworthy.

Currently, only Brother Nine, Uncle Ou and Shu Wenbo know her identity, and now there is also Miss Li.
