She did not ask why we wanted to investigate these seemingly unrelated minor characters. Just nodded slightly.

"Yes, please rest assured, Miss."

"One more thing."

I looked at her, lowered my voice.

"I want you to mobilize all your manpower."

"Go investigate someone."

"Queen."

"Khuong Chieu."

Boss Lieu's pupils immediately contracted. Investigate the Queen? This is a shocking story. Just a little carelessness. It is a serious crime that confiscates the family's property and excommunicates the entire clan.

"Miss, this..."

An awkward look appeared on her face.

"What I want to investigate."

"It's none of her business after entering the palace."

I interrupted her.

"I want to investigate everything about her before entering the palace."

"Every word, every action while in the bedroom."

"Who is she on good terms with?"

"Hold a grudge against someone."

"Especially..."

Let's stop for a moment. Then slowly press each word.

"All the interactions between her and Ta Hanh before they got married."

Previous life. The story between Ta Hanh and Khuong Chieu was revealed. It's because of a love letter between two people from when they were young. By someone no one expected. Offered to Your Majesty. That letter. Has become the last straw to crush them. But I don't know. Who is the person who sent that letter? Don't know either. Where did that letter come from? We can't continue to wait for that so-called "unexpected" thing anymore. We must be proactive. I want to find that letter myself. I believe that. When they were young, the love between them was so passionate. Love letters absolutely cannot be just one. Just investigating. You will definitely find clues. Boss Lieu's face turned pale. She understood. How dangerous is this? Go investigate the "old love" between the current Queen and the former Tran Bac general. It's no longer a tightrope walk. It's dancing on the blade of a knife.

"Eldest Miss, this matter... is too involved..."

I look at her. His eyes were calm but determined.

"Aunt Liu has been with my father for how many years?"

"Fifteen years."

"The past fifteen years."

"How does my father treat Aunt Liu?"

Boss Lieu was silent. She is the daughter of the god of sin. Last year, the whole house was confiscated. It was her father who saved her from the Church Ward Company. Give her a new identity. Give her the courage to be safe and make her own destiny. That grace. Bigger than the sky.

"Our master."

"On the outside, it looks glorious."

"But actually standing on the edge of the abyss."

"This trip is father's trip to the Northern Realm."

"Nine parts dead, one part alive."

"If we can't overthrow the Ta family."

"Wait until they recover their vitality."

"The one who dies will be us."

"I don't want Aunt Liu to sacrifice her life for me."

"I just want..."

"Please, Aunt Liu, save the lives of everyone in the Tham family."

I stood up. Towards her. Respectfully perform a grand ceremony. Boss Lieu was stunned. She looked at me. Looking at the golden Prime Minister, he only knows how to soak in flowers and enjoy the moon. His eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief. A long time later. She also stood up. Trinh solemnly returned the favor. Her eyes. Changed. There is no longer any respect for the owner's lady. It's conviction. And absolutely. For a decision maker.

"Please rest assured, Big Miss."

"Within half a month."

"Lieu That will definitely give you an answer."

She no longer addresses herself by her first name "Eldest Miss" in a more polite manner. But use your real name. That is the highest promise. But she gave it to me. After Lieu That left, my heart was truly at peace. Father was in the open, in charge of the frontal confrontation, inspecting the books, giving the Ta family a fatal blow. I was in the dark, in charge of pulling firewood from the bottom of the pot, finding Khuong Chieu's grave, cutting off her escape route. My father and I are like two large nets, from two different directions quietly squeezing the Ta family and the Khuong family. Days passed like that. His father led the envoys to leave the capital and set out for the North. On the outside, the capital was still peaceful as usual, but everyone knew that a bigger storm was silently forming. Every day I stay in the palace, read books, play the guitar, and embroider. It was as if she had truly returned to being the carefree First Lady of the Tham family. Only we ourselves know that half of our heart is placed in the Northern region, half of it is placed in a small tea house that few people pay attention to in the South of the city. On the tenth day. Lieu That gave me the first news. That news was brought back by Xuan Dao, hidden in a piece of flower cinnamon cake. At the bottom of the cake, there is a small word "An" written in rice paste. That's the signal we agreed on in advance.

"An", means that the people on the list I gave you are all under control, and there has also been an initial discovery.
