Cheng Yushu is afraid of Fu Zhao, but Mother Qiu is not.
Mother Qiu's identity allows her to sit back and relax in Chen Feng's yard.
Even if everything she and Cheng Yushu did was publicized now, she could say that she was doing it for Chen Feng's sake and couldn't bear to see Chen Feng alone, without even a few people to speak his mind about.
Therefore, among the three people present, only Mother Qiu remained calm.
Mother Qiu glanced at the two people with disdain. It turned out that they were from the countryside and could not stand up to the public. The smallest thing would mess up their sense of proportion.
She said calmly: "Okay, okay, don't scare yourself to death first."
Cheng Yushu's eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red, "If she knows, she will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it! She will definitely find a way to stop it. Mom, please think of a way!"
Mother Qiu said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Since she knows, let's just advance the plan. Tomorrow morning, I will coax the prince to come to the plum forest to practice swordsmanship. You and the prince have a good talk, and then you can coax the prince to drink."
A few glasses of wine and everything will fall into place.”
Thinking of the wine that Qiu's mother had prepared, Cheng Yushu's face turned red and she was too shy to raise her head.
After all, she is still a little girl who has not yet left the court.
"Success or failure depends on tomorrow," Qiu's mother paused, "Miss Cheng's future also depends on tomorrow."
Cheng Yushu became solemn and said solemnly: "Mom, don't worry! I will definitely live up to your hard work and teachings during this period!"
Her hands were clenched into fists at her sides, trembling slightly, and she was even a little excited.
The day has finally arrived!
"Go back and get ready." Mother Qiu patted Cheng Yushu's shoulder, stood up, and went outside the Meilin.
Cheng Yushu hurriedly followed and wanted to send Mother Qiu out in person, while Mother Cheng stayed behind to pack the things on the stone table.
After Cheng's mother packed her things and went back, she saw Cheng Yushu sitting in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror in trance.
Through the mirror, Cheng's mother saw the determination on Cheng Yushu's face.
Cheng's mother was silent for a moment and then went out quietly, not wanting to disturb Cheng Yushu.

The weather had been gloomy for a few days, but the sun came out in the afternoon, and the sunshine was particularly good.
Fu Zhao stood in the yard and watched the maids taking out the bedding to dry it in the sun.
After basking in the sun for a while, Fu Zhao felt much better and had a smile on his face.
Liang Sui looked at it and felt happy in her heart.
Liangsui stood facing the door of the yard. Suddenly, she saw Si Qi walking in in a hurry, his face seemed not very good.
Liang Sui's heart tightened.
Si Qi rarely loses control of his rules. Could it be that something serious has happened?
Liangsui almost instinctively tugged on Fu Zhao's arm and motioned Fu Zhao to look towards Siqi.
Fu Zhao looked over in confusion and saw Siqi walking towards him in a hurry.
Siqi walked to Fu Zhao and stood in front of him to salute. Without waiting for Fu Zhao to ask, he said guiltily: "My slaves are not doing things well. I have alerted them and let them find out."
Fu Zhao pursed his lips, and the smile on his face slowly faded.
Seeing that Si Qi looked like he had done something wrong, she smiled again and patted Si Qi's slightly cold hand.
"If they find out, they will find out. It's them who have a guilty conscience." Fu Zhao's tone was very relaxed.
"But I'm afraid it will mess up your plan..."
Fu Zhao laughed and said, "I don't have any plans."
Si Qi was stunned for a moment.
Fu Zhao smiled and did not explain to Si Qi.
Since the last time Chen Feng took the initiative to explain to her, she felt that as long as Chen Feng's heart was with her, she didn't have to worry about anything.
She was just worried that based on Qiu's mother's hostility towards her, Cheng Yushu might be used to do something.
"By the way, you still have to be careful about what is in Mother Qiu's baggage," Fu Zhao ordered.
"Yes, I will definitely handle this matter well." In order to make up for his mistakes, Si Qi made up his mind and decided to handle this matter well.
After getting along with him for a while, Fu Zhao knew that Si Qi was an extremely serious person.
Afraid that Si Qi would be too burdened, Fu Zhao said softly: "Mother Qiu is very thoughtful. Even if you can't find out, it doesn't matter. Just watch our things carefully and don't let Mother Qiu get away with them. She loves other things."
Just do whatever you want."
"yes."
The master and the servants said a few words, and then saw Mother Qiu coming back.
When she walked into the yard, the small baggage that Qiu's mother carried when she went out in the morning disappeared, and she came back empty-handed.
Fu Zhao was standing in the courtyard, turning a blind eye even if he wanted to.
Mother Qiu stopped, thought for a moment, and then walked towards Fu Zhao.
Mother Qiu raised her head and straightened her chest, looking directly at Fu Zhao. She didn't look like a servant at all, but rather like the owner of this courtyard.
Mother Qiu walked up to Fu Zhao and blessed Fu Zhao perfunctorily.
Fu Zhao's smile was still gentle and gentle, "Where did mom come back from?"
Mother Qiu looked at Fu Zhao with deep meaning, "I thought you knew my whereabouts."
Fu Zhao smiled and said, "Mom is joking. I don't have clairvoyance. How can I know where my mother is?"
"You are so humble. I still have something to do, so I will leave now." Before Fu Zhao could say anything, Mother Qiu left.
Looking at Qiu's mother's back, Liangsui stamped her feet angrily.
Although she had already experienced how arrogant Mother Qiu was, she still found it irritating when she saw it again!
My master has been wronged again!
After waiting for Mama Qiu to leave for a long time, Fu Zhao was still staring in the direction in which Mama Qiu left.
Even Siqi became confused and asked in a low voice: "What are you looking at?"
Fu Zhao looked away, "Have you seen the pearl necklace exposed at her neckline?"
Although only a few round pearls were exposed, Fu Zhao still saw them with sharp eyes.
Let’s not mention the value of the pearl necklace. How come Mother Qiu still likes to wear this kind of chain at her age?
Si Qi and Liang Sui shook their heads and did not notice.
Fu Zhao said in a deep voice: "Go and check carefully. You will definitely find a lot of things on her."
"Yes, I will make arrangements right now." Siqi replied solemnly, and then went to make arrangements for his confidants.
Fu Zhao was still standing in the yard, watching the maids drying the quilts.
After about half an hour, she went back to the house to rest.
Because there were many entertainments, Chen Feng only came back after dinner during this period.
Fu Zhao had dinner alone and waited for Chen Feng to come back.
Chen Feng is sensible and will not drink outside.
Fu Zhao looked at the flowers under the lamp. Spring was about to begin, and she wanted to do something with her own hands.
After watching for an unknown amount of time, there was finally movement in the yard outside.
The courtyard door opened, followed by a series of footsteps.
Fu Zhao was overjoyed to know that Chen Feng was back, and she stood up holding the table.
Another voice sounded from outside.
"Your Majesty, I have cooked porridge for you. Do you want to have a taste?"
