Chapter 894: Catching a Big Fish

She continued to add olive oil and stirred. After mixing the rose powder and olive oil together, she added beeswax and stirred evenly. She poured it into the lipstick box. After solidifying, a box of rose lipstick was ready.

She used a small silver spoon to gently pick some and applied it on the back of her hand. The color was bright and pure, exuding the fragrance of roses. She dripped a few drops of water on it and wiped it hard, but it did not fade easily.

At this moment, the frankincense juice in the distiller also boiled. Drop by drop, the distilled water dripped from the distiller tube into the transparent glass cup.

After a while, the glass cup was full.

Yu Youyao changed to a new glass cup and placed the freshly filled frankincense distilled water to the side to cool.

After cooling, the distilled water would separate into water and oil.

The golden essence would float up, while the distilled water below was pure dew. It was relatively simple to extract, but the essence could only be extracted when the amount of oil was large.

Pure dew could be used to moisturize and soften the skin after washing the face. Essence oil was even more precious.

At this moment, Yin Shi walked into the house. “According to your instructions, we’ve already captured all the spies and nails planted by the land-owning class in Xiangping City. We’ve locked them up in a manor outside the city and sent someone to interrogate them strictly. When the government office officially investigates Liu Dagen’s death, they can be used as witnesses and handed over to the government office. They can be used as witnesses to accuse the Han Clan of framing you.”

Yu Youyao chuckled. “It’s been hard on you recently.”

The land-owning class had arranged for her to be accused by Madam Zhang. It could be inferred that the land-owning class had definitely planted many spies and people in Xiangping City.

She had deliberately instructed the Bai Residence to post the notice that they had been enlightened by Princess Shaoyi and were determined to be kind. Thus, they would carry out concession activities, numbing the land-owning class.

It made the land-owning class misunderstand that the time to deal with her had arrived.

They felt that as long as they tarnished the reputation of the Bai Residence and defeated it, they would definitely be able to use this notice to implicate her.

It was not easy to expose the spies and people of the land-owning class in the dark. However, the bigger the commotion they caused in Xiangping City, the more they needed to do, and the greater the chance of being exposed.

Spreading news often had to be done at more crowded places, such as restaurants, casinos, and busy markets. She had sent people to keep an eye on these places and indulged in unfavorable rumors about the Bai Residence and her that had spread like wildfire in Xiangping City. This was because she wanted to capture the spies and people planted by the soldiers.

Now that they had caught the witness, it was completely confirmed that the Han Clan had slandered and framed her.

Yin Shi did not say anything else and only asked, “What should we do next?”

Yu Youyao smiled. “We’ll continue to cast a long line to catch the big fish. However, we’ve captured so many people. I’m afraid it will arouse their vigilance. Arrange for some more people to continue to spread rumors in Xiangping City that are disadvantageous to the Bai Residence and me. Muddy the waters of Xiangping. The better, the better.”

The people they had captured now were all small fish. The real big fish were hidden behind them and would not appear easily. They had to create a chance for them to appear.

Yin Shi nodded. “In the past few days, there have been commoners gathering in front of the Bai Residence every day to cause trouble. The Bai Residence’s door is tightly shut, and even the Baiji Medicinal Shop is closed. Will it affect our subsequent plans?”

Yu Youyao’s expression darkened. “I’ve already cast my net. Next, it’s up to the Bai couple.” She stopped smiling and her eyes turned cold. “Do you know what’s good for you?!”

Old Master Bai and Madam Bai hid in the residence and listened to the crazy shouting, cursing, and smashing outside. Finally, they paid a painful price for their greedy actions back then and shed tears of regret.

Madam Bai looked at her husband in a daze. “How did things develop to this point? Didn’t Princess Shaoyi say that as long as the commoners benefited, there was room for the Bai Residence’s reputation to be salvaged? She clearly promised us that she wouldn’t let our family bear the groundless accusation…”

Old Master Bai said dejectedly, “However, she didn’t promise not to let the Bai Residence suffer heavy losses, nor did she promise that the Han Clan wouldn’t continue to attack us.’

To be honest, they were too arrogant.

She thought that Princess Shaoyi wanted to use the Bai Residence to deal with the Han Clan and intimidate the other nobles. She would not abandon them easily, so it was inevitable that they would be a little fearless.

Madam Bai t s eyes widened in shock as she said in disbelief, “What, what does this mean? In order to cooperate with Princess Shaoyi to deal with the Han family, our family took the initiative to admit that we sold inferior medicinal herbs. We even took the initiative to reduce the price, offer discounts, give away medicine, and provide volunteer consultations. Our family has already suffered a huge loss. Isn’t that enough?”

Old Master Bai smiled bitterly. “During the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Bu was captured by Cao Cao. Lu Bu said to Cao Cao that when Duke Cao obtained him, he would lead the cavalry and Duke Cao would lead the infantry to unify the world. Cao Cao respected Lu Bu r s name as the number one general of the Three Kingdoms and was tempted for a moment. In the end, Cao Cao still killed Lu Bu.’

Madam Bai was stunned for a moment before she subconsciously said, “That’s because Liu Bei said at the side that Lu Bu was a turncoat. This made Cao Cao think of Ding Jianyang and Grand Tutor Dong, who were killed by Lu Bu. It’s said that a loyal slave would not serve two masters. Princess Shaoyi wants to teach us a painful lesson and make us willing to be controlled by her in the future.’

After saying this, even her bones felt cold.

It was said that one should not doubt the people they used, and one should not use people they doubted.

If Princess Shaoyi wanted to use them, she would not be conflicted about whether they would sincerely surrender and really help her deal with the Han family in the future.

She had used her own method to leave the Bai Residence with no way out.

Princess Shaoyi did not test human nature, because she could easily control people’s hearts and human nature.

Could a young lady’s shrewdness really be so deep and meticulous?

Old Master Bai nodded. “On the surface, the Han Clan is targeting the Bai Residence, but in fact, their spearhead has been targeting Princess Shaoyi alone from the beginning. All of this was Princess Shaoyi’s scheme. She used the Bai Residence as a chess piece and carefully set up a good game. The crazier the retaliation of the land-owning, the more involved the Han Clan will be when it’s time to settle accounts. They will be involved more deeply in the situation, making it hard for them to get out.”

Mrs. Bai suddenly reacted. “In order to deal with Princess Shaoyi, the Han Clan has borrowed a lot of the power of nobles. Could it be…” Her eyes suddenly widened, and she couldn’t help but gasp. “Not only does Princess

Shaoyi want to uproot the Han Clan, but she also wants to eliminate all the nobles related to the Han Clan!”

Old Master Bai nodded with a heavy expression.

Mrs. Bai t s body went limp. “Then what should we do now?”

Old Master Bai said helplessly, “We have no way out anymore. Let’s follow the plan. Princess Shaoyi needs to use the Bai Residence to deal with the Han Clan. She won’t give up on us.”

The rumors became more and more intense. At this moment, another notice was posted at the entrance of the Bai Residence. “The Bai Residence admires Princess Shaoyi and has decided to imitate the Xie Residence. The Bai Residence will donate 70% of their family’s wealth to King Yue Fei as military funds. They will also donate a batch of supplies and medicinal herbs to the government to support the plague prevention and resettlement of the refugees..”
