Chen Jie said, “Okay, in a moment, go to my study to get it, and let’s eat.”

Chen Jie started eating while recalling the intelligence he had gathered the night before.

Of the five pieces of intelligence from yesterday, not many were useful, but one caught his attention.

It was about Ying Er—Second Brother among the Twelve Eagle Guards under adoptive father Peng Shizhong—, the man who had brought him into the mansion yesterday, who was unexpectedly in collusion with Feng Xuan.

The intelligence indicated that Ying Er and Feng Xuan grew up together, both emerging from a group of refugees and later adopted by Peng Shizhong. Ying Er, lacking in innate talent, was assigned to the Eagle Guard and not taken as an adoptive son.

However, Ying Er and Feng Xuan were both disciples of Peng Shizhong.

Initially, they were close friends but had drifted apart over the last two years. Yet behind the scenes, Ying Er secretly relayed much crucial intelligence to Feng Xuan.

It could be said that Ying Er was Feng Xuan’s man.

After reading the intelligence, Chen Jie was also secretly alarmed; Feng Xuan was perilous indeed to have infiltrated even his adoptive father’s close circle.

Did he, too, have Feng Xuan’s people around him?

Chen Jie looked around; Xiao Hu, Zhou Chu were definitely not problematic, and neither were Su Yunjin or Ruirui. But as for these maids and servants, it wasn’t certain.

It seemed he needed to be more cautious.

Thinking thus, his pace of eating buns slowed considerably.

White Tiger Hall seemed calm, but if one sensed carefully, there was a surging undercurrent of intrigue.

But ultimately, strength was paramount; the stronger his power, the greater his ability to mitigate risks.

Forget these matters for now, he had to find a way to achieve Energy Transformation.

The only thing he should do now was to quickly find the required ingredients for the “Spirit Transformation Pill.” The thirty-six auxiliary medications should be no problem, now he only lacked the three main ingredients.

He already had the “Absolute Spirit Seed.”

Huang Wan’er had promised to give him the “Spirit Transformation Grass.”

Now, he was just missing the five-hundred-year-old “Blood Ganoderma”; that five-hundred-year mark…

Chen Jie developed a headache; even the hundred-year “Blood Ganoderma” was hard to find. Wu Zhong had nearly died in the grey mist for it.

And now he needed a five-hundred-year-old one.

Tough to procure; where would he find this five-hundred-year-old “Blood Ganoderma”?

Chen Jie rubbed his temples.

…

In the back hall.

Su Yunjin took out a medicine box, which contained medicines formulated by Chen Jie.

Su Yunjin looked at Yin Hongmei’s swollen wound.

Though a scab had formed over it, there was a high likelihood that scars would remain.

Su Yunjin first found a small wine jar inside, opened it, and a strong whiff of alcohol reached her nose.

This was high-proof baijiu distilled by Chen Jie in his spare time, serving as a medical alcohol for disinfection.

Su Yunjin took a cotton ball, dabbed it with alcohol.

“It’ll sting a bit; hold on.”

Su Yunjin said to Yin Hongmei. Yin Hongmei smiled and replied, “It’s fine.”

Su Yunjin wiped Yin Hongmei’s wound with the alcohol-soaked cotton ball to disinfect it, then found the golden sore medicine prepared by Chen Jie.

Chen Jie claimed this medicine left no scars even from knife wounds.

She applied some using the cotton ball on Yin Hongmei’s wound.

“Why did you get into a fight, huh?”

Su Yunjin blew on the wound and asked, “Does it hurt?”

“No.”

“You shouldn’t fight; you’re so young, and they are sixteen or seventeen; you can’t beat them.”

“I can.”

Yin Hongmei didn’t elaborate further.

Su Yunjin said, “So, Cuiju came to apologize by kowtowing; you made her do it, right?”

Yin Hongmei replied, “No, she did it voluntarily.”

“Haha…You girl, do you take me for a fool? There’s no such willing person in this world.”

Yin Hongmei remained silent.

Su Yunjin said, “Later, pack up your things and move into the room next to mine; you won’t stay with them anymore to avoid their bullying.”

“No need, my Lady, I’m just a servant; I don’t deserve a room of my own. It’s against the rules.”

Su Yunjin replied, “Haha, what rules? I have the final say in this inner yard.”

Yin Hongmei: “But still.”

“Enough, it’s settled. Be obedient, and also, no more fighting.”

Su Yunjin packed up the medicine box and said, “You don’t have to follow me this morning. Go tidy up your things, rest a bit.”

“I don’t need to rest.”

…

Su Yunjin frowned.

Yin Hongmei said, “I want to learn to write from you, my Lady.”

“Haha, fine, we’ll learn to write.”

Su Yunjin smiled and then left the room to find Chen Jie, who had not finished his meal. Su Yunjin sat down next to him and said, “Husband, I want to talk to you about something. I’m thinking of giving Hong Mei a separate room.”

“Oh, okay.”

Chen Jie immediately agreed, then he thought for a moment and added, “By the way, ask Hong Mei if she wants to learn martial arts; if she’s willing, I can have someone teach her.”

“Martial arts?”

Su Yunjin was taken aback, not understanding what Chen Jie meant, and he did not explain further.

Earlier, Xiao Hu had already gone to ask Cuiju and the other three maids about everything. This girl was ruthless but had a special affection for Su Yunjin.

She had even killed because the maids got too close to Su Yunjin, hurting her feelings.

She was loyal, especially to Su Yunjin.

Their Jin’er was good in all aspects but was too kind-hearted and too nice to others. This kind of personality as the Lady lacked decisiveness and made her vulnerable to abuse by wicked servants.

Chen Jie had always wanted to change Su Yunjin, but kindness wasn’t bad; how to change it would be somewhat cruel to his wife.

Thus, he could only find someone complementary, and Yin Hongmei was a good choice. From this incident, she seemed entirely loyal to his wife, and he could foster this trait in her to help his wife in the future.

Actually, Chen Jie still preferred his kind-hearted wife rather than one who was calculating and heartless.

Since he didn’t want to change his wife, he had to find a way to strengthen her instead!
