However, she didn’t intend to interfere too much in the matters of Fragrant Garden and only stayed here out of convenience.

Now that the brothel keeper could manage Fragrant Garden on her own, she would not interfere.

However, where did this merchant called Mr. Mo come from?

There was no prestigious family with the surname Mo that had such wealth in the capital!

Kong Rui couldn’t understand, so she didn’t intend to dwell on it. She would know when she returned tonight!

After thinking about it, Kong Rui smiled at the procuress and said, “You’re enough to manage Fragrant Garden.”

“I still have something on, so I’ll be heading out first!” After Kong Rui finished speaking, she immediately rushed out with Ling Nuo before the procuress could react.

The procuress reached out towards Kong Rui’s back before sighing dejectedly. “I’ve been conscientious in Fragrant Garden my entire life. Why do I have to encounter such unreliable bosses?!”

After lamenting about her life, the procuress turned to the crowd in front of her and said seriously, “Do you guys remember what I just said?!”

“Miss, where are we going?” As Ling Nuo followed closely beside Kong Rui, he felt her footsteps become faster and faster.

Kong Rui ignored Ling Nuo and quickened her pace. Soon, she arrived outside the Li family’s door.

She had been delayed at the Hua family’s house the night before, so she didn’t know what the Li family’s current situation was.

Just as they reached the entrance of the Li family’s house, Ling Nuo suddenly pulled Kong Rui and hid in a small alley.

Before Kong Rui could ask, she saw a small group of palace guards walking over in a neat formation.

Surprised that this kid was actually so quick-witted, Kong Rui turned to look at Ling Nuo.

After the small group of guards arrived at the entrance of the Li family’s residence, the leader took a few steps up the steps outside the Li family’s residence and said to the servant guarding the door with a solemn expression, “The queen has summoned the Li family’s patriarch! Hurry up and report!”

The servant frowned slightly, but ran in without hesitation.

Not long after the servant ran in, they heard footsteps inside. Someone seemed to have run out with him.

At the entrance, an old man with white hair appeared. “Sir, after our patriarch returned from the palace yesterday, he felt unwell and is resting in bed now. This…”

“What? Are you ignoring the queen’s orders?” The guard raised his voice, clearly dissatisfied with the Li family’s patriarch’s actions.

The white-haired old man had a helpless and nervous expression as he said, “You’ve misunderstood. All kinds of things have happened in the residence recently. The Patriarch…”

“Sigh, please wait a moment. I’ll report to the Patriarch again.” Seeing that the guard’s expression became even uglier, the white-haired old man didn’t dare to quibble anymore and could only turn back to the residence.

Kong Rui raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn’t expect the relationship between the Li family and the queen to be so tense. It had only been two days. Could it be that other than her arrangements, something else had happened?

As Kong Rui was thinking, she saw a small figure poking his head out of the Li family’s residence.

Kong Rui could tell at a glance that it was Tong Sheng.

Tong Sheng stuck his head out to take a look before immediately shrinking back.

After a while, he stuck his head out again and walked out.

Tong Sheng puffed out his small chest and faced the guard leader without fear. “I want to see the queen!”

The guard leader lowered his head and looked at Tong Sheng as he said, “Go away!”

However, Tong Sheng raised his head firmly. “The queen said that as long as I want to see her, she will see me!”

The guard leader seemed to be a little impatient. He waved his hand and was about to push Tong Sheng away.
