Chapter 249 - 249 The Queen’s Scheme249 The Queen’s Scheme
Kong Rui raised her eyebrows slightly. Although she was a little surprised by this news, she wasn’t panicking. “Is this what you mean by bad news?”
“Miss, haven’t you been paying attention to the Li family? Isn’t this important news?” Ling Nuo looked at Kong Rui in confusion.
Kong Rui was in no hurry to respond. Instead, she fell into deep thought.
Li Han was the queen’s niece. Now that Wen Qiong was dead, it was normal for the queen to acknowledge her as her goddaughter.
However, why did the queen think so highly of Nie Yin? Why would she want her goddaughter to marry Nie Yin as well?
Could it be that the queen and Nie Yin were using this marriage to make a deal?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKong Rui was pondering over it when she heard Ling Nuo mutter, “I also heard that the First Elder of the Li family was so angry that he fell ill when he heard that Miss Li Han was left in the royal family. In my opinion, isn’t this a good thing? The queen is a member of the Li family to begin with. Now that she has acknowledged the daughter of the Li family as her goddaughter, the Li family should feel even more honored! But the First Elder of the Li family seems to have suffered a huge grievance.”
As Kong Rui listened to Ling Nuo’s analysis, she was even more certain that Li Han must have another reason for staying in the royal family, and the First Elder of the Li family must know this reason!
Kong Rui thought for a moment and asked Ling Nuo, “Is there any news from Tong Sheng?”
Ling Nuo shook her head. “I heard that after the First Elder of the Li family brought Tong Sheng into the royal family that day, he didn’t come back. This old man is quite pitiful. He’s still in the royal family despite his poor health. I wonder if he’s dead or alive!”
Kong Rui didn’t care about the Li family’s First Elder. Instead, she was even more worried aboue the fact that Tong Sheng didn’t leave the royal family yet.
However, Hua Shang was seriously injured and couldn’t enter the royal family. Otherwise, she really wanted to use the Hua family’s power to enter the royal family to investigate the situation immediately!
Thinking of this, Kong Rui patted Ling Nuo’s shoulder and said, “You investigated it well! Continue to help me keep an eye on the royal family and the various clans. I’m going out for a while! If Kong Shu and Kong Yao return, tell them to wait for me here!”
With that, Kong Rui quickly rushed out before Ling Nuo could ask.
Ling Nuo followed closely beside Kong Rui. “Miss, I can’t let you go out alone anymore. Otherwise, Young Master will definitely kill me!”
Kong Rui stopped and glanced at Ling Nuo as she said, “It’s not convenient for you to come!”
“Don’t worry, that place is very safe!” Seeing that Ling Nuo didn’t seem to believe her, Kong Rui added, “If anything happens, I’ll explain it to your young master.”
However, Ling Nuo looked exasperated. “Miss, if something really happens, how are you going to explain it to Young Master?!”
Only then did Kong Rui realize that her words didn’t make sense, so she immediately smiled and said, “In short, don’t worry! I’ll definitely be back in the afternoon!”
Ling Nuo knew that with Kong Rui’s temper, she wouldn’t bring her along no matter how much she begged.
Ling Nuo’s eyes darted around before she said to Kong Rui obediently, “Alright! Miss! Don’t worry. Go out and get busy! I’ll take good care of this place!”
Kong Rui frowned at Ling Nuo. She had a feeling that this fellow was plotting something.

She nodded at Ling Nuo and left without looking back.
The brothel keeper looked at Kong Rui, who was in a hurry to leave, and sighed helplessly. “Why am I so unlucky?! Fragrant Garden is being treated as an inn! I know that you’re the masters, but you should at least share some of the work!”
After the brothel keeper finished speaking, she saw a servant raise a chair high to stack it on the table on the other side.
The brothel keeper screamed as she rushed over. “Stop!”
She poked the servant’s shoulder with one hand as she scolded fiercely, “Are you going to compensate me if you rub off my good paint? Can you afford it?”
The brothel keeper sighed heavily. “Seriously! You’re always causing trouble for me! How can Fragrant Garden operate without me?!”
As the brothel keeper spoke, she fanned herself to calm herself down.
“Alright, alright! Don’t just stand there! Hurry up and get to work!”
“Hey you, move the boxes of things that the guests brought yesterday to the backyard first! We’ll deal with them when the masters come back!”
As the brothel keeper looked at the busy crowd, she sighed again.
