Mu Qingge didn't know anything about this in her previous life until her death, so she couldn't help but stare wide-eyed in disbelief.

"Mother has never told me before."

Shen Weilan smiled, but his eyes were cold: "Well, I have indeed never told you. Not only you, but your father also doesn't know."

"But your father has doubted it and tested it over and over again."

"After all, for hundreds of years, the Ye family has gained both money and power by relying on their incense-making skills, and has even become the target of many powerful people."

"After all, things like incense have a wide range of uses."

"Your father also wanted to use incense to exclude dissidents and win over others to climb up the ladder. He tried every possible means to get me to admit that I can make incense and blend it, and use my skills in making and blending incense to help him."

"This is also the real reason why your father has not liked me all these years, but still puts me in this position. But he has no intention of doing it, and I won't help him. I just pretend that I don't."

Shen Weilan sighed: "Everyone is not guilty of carrying a jade, so I showed you those books, but I didn't wake you up."

Mu Qingge returned to her room from Shen Weilan, but she still felt a little weird.

She took out the storybooks she usually read.

The storybooks appear to be normal storybooks, but each of them contains several spice recipes.

The formula, spice names, and even the circumstances and methods of use are all very obscurely hidden in the story.

It's very difficult to spot if you don't look carefully.

According to her mother, it was because Mu Changyun had been secretly testing her to see if she knew about Ye's spice recipe. He also secretly searched the things she brought to Mu's house several times, even Mu Qingge's books. She had no choice but to resort to this method.

Mu Qingge was really surprised and took out a bottle of fragrant powder from her sleeve.

This was given to her by her mother. She had never used this kind of fragrant powder before, but after smelling the fragrant powder, she told her several recipes for this fragrant powder. Although she did not explain all of them, it was There are just one or two less common medicinal names missing.

It was at that time that she suddenly remembered that her mother seemed to have occasionally used this method to let her smell the fragrance and identify the formula.

She had only thought it was a game her mother played with her when she was bored, but she never thought that her mother had been secretly teaching her.

"Miss." Lu Zhu came out of the clean room: "The hot water is ready. Miss, would you like to take a bath now?"

Luzhu said, but his eyes fell on the bottle of perfume held by singer Mu Qing: "What is this?"

Mu Qingge smiled: "It's fragrant powder."

"Didn't my mother just give birth to a baby and she is in confinement? My brother is still too young to use fragrant powder. This bottle of fragrant powder was included in the gift that my father gave my mother earlier. I just saw it. , I thought the smell was quite good, so I asked my mother for it."

Mu Qingge looked at Luzhu: "I heard from my mother that this kind of fragrant powder is very precious. A small amount like this costs several taels of gold. The fragrance is also refreshing. I want to keep it and use it when there is something important. "

After Mu Qingge finished speaking, she pretended to be very casual and put the powder into the dossier, then stood up and walked towards the clean room: "I'm going to take a shower."

Mu Qingge never liked having people waiting on her while she was bathing, so Lu Zhu did not follow her.

Mu Qingge entered the bathroom, but did not undress immediately. She only stood for a while, estimating the time, then walked to the bathtub and made some water sounds.

After making some noise, Mu Qingge took off her shoes, quietly walked to the door and took a look outside.

Sure enough, he saw Lu Zhu carefully taking out the white jade bottle from her dowry, pouring some fragrant powder from it onto her embroidered handkerchief, and then hiding it in her sleeve.

Mu Qingge curled her lips and then turned to take a bath.

Probably because too many things happened during the day, Mu Qingge did not sleep peacefully at night. He suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and heard a small sound coming from the next door room.

After a while, Mu Qingge heard the sound of Lu Zhu carefully closing the door and leaving.

Is this...going to meet her real master?

Mu Qingge gritted her teeth secretly. Lu Zhu was very skillful in her movements. Thinking about it, this kind of thing might have happened more than once or twice.

She hadn't noticed it even once before, she was really too stupid.

However, if Lu Zhu went to see Aunt Liu and Mu Yanjing, they would be heavily guarded there. If she followed them, she would inevitably scare the snake, so it would be better to wait and see what happens.

After more than half an hour, there was another movement outside the door, and the green bamboo came back again.

Mu Qingge fell asleep again.

Early the next morning, Mu Qingge indeed smelled the scent of the fragrant powder she brought back last night on Lu Zhu who came to wait on her.

Mu Qingge didn't say a word. After getting dressed, she went to the main room to have breakfast with Shen Weilan.

While Fu Rong and Lu Zhu went out to serve the meal together, Mu Qingge lowered her voice and asked, "Have you made arrangements for what I told my mother yesterday?"

Shen Weilan nodded: "It's been arranged, they will take action today, and I also sent a special letter to an official who served in the court who had an old relationship with the Shen family for help, don't worry."

"When your father returns home, there should be news."

After Shen Weilan finished speaking, she looked at Mu Qingge again: "What's wrong? Did something happen? Are you so anxious?"

Mu Qingge nodded and lowered her voice: "My daughter discovered that Lu Zhu was most likely bribed by Aunt Liu and her daughter. Yesterday at the Princess Mansion, Lu Zhu said she was going to get some clothes for me and never came back.

"

"And last night, my daughter woke up in the middle of the night, only to hear Luzhu leave Ningqiyuan quietly and didn't come back until more than half an hour later."

Mu Qingge's eyes were slightly cold: "After the two incidents between Mu Yanjing and my mother yesterday, they probably hate me. I think they will definitely use Luzhu to deal with me."

Shen Weilan's expression changed when he heard this: "What do you need me to do?"

Mu Qingge smiled and shook her head: "It doesn't matter, I have my own plans and I'm already taking action."

After she finished speaking, she saw Luzhu coming in with porridge and stopped talking.

In the morning, Mu Qingge stayed in Shen Weilan's house to accompany Shen Weilan and his newborn brother.

After lunch, Mu Qingge dismissed the green bamboo on the pretext of taking a nap, and then walked carefully around the house several times.

Not long after I rested, I was woken up by the whirring sound of green bamboo: "Miss, Miss, something happened."

Mu Qingge thought that Mu Changyun had returned home, so she stood up and was about to go to the front yard to watch a show, but she heard Lu Zhu say: "Aunt Liu and the second lady are here, they are looking for Madam, saying that Aunt Liu has lost something."

The valuable things need to be searched."
