Chapter 596: Chapter 596 Confirming Her Identity

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Wait a moment.” Zhou Ying went to the study room, took a piece of paper and a pencil, and quickly sketched out the fattened Qiao Lanlan.

She handed it to Gu Chengrui and asked, “Do you know her? She was the one who drugged the soup.”

Gu Chengrui paused, then nodded and pondered, “I do have a feeling that she looks familiar. I think I’ve seen her somewhere before, but I can’t remember where.”

Gu Chengrui looked at it carefully before replying thoughtfully, “It does look a little familiar, but I can’t remember at the moment.

“Can you recall any other obvious characteristic about her?”

“Special characteristics?” Zhou Ying tried to recall. Other than that hideous face, she really didn’t remember anything else.

Thus, she looked at King Rui’s residence again through her interspace. She had to search around the servant’s room before finally finding that woman.

After looking at her carefully, she realized there were quite a few acne marks on her face. Other than a mark near her right ear, there was nothing else.

Zhou Ying told him about Qiao Lanlan’s characteristics after leaving the residence.

Gu Chengrui pondered for some time and still shook his head. He could not remember who she was.

He said, “Let’s not care about her for now. I’m going to cut a melon to eat. I’m starving.”

“You didn’t eat enough last night?”

“I drank too much at noon and didn’t have much appetite. So, I didn’t eat my fill.” After Gu Chengrui said that, he went to the farm to pick up two honey melons. He washed and cut them into pieces before placing them on the table. “If you want to eat some, help yourself.”

“Just put it there. You look after the pot, and I’ll go take a look at the grounds to see if there’s anything to put away.” Zhou Ying went out to the farms to get busy again.

After harvesting anything that was ripe, she planted more cotton this time.

Because of the widespread promotion of sweet potatoes and wheat, there would definitely not be many people who grew cotton.

It’s been four years since anyone harvested cotton. There would definitely be a shortage this winter. Thus, she could also make a fortune by planting cotton, other than helping the poor.

Through the various Mother God Temples, Zhou Ying surveyed the entire country. After confirming that there were no big problems other than some asking for help, she selectively distributed goods to those in need.

After they were done with their work, the stew was almost ready. The couple had a bowl of stew with some white wine, washed up, and went to bed.

The next day, at dawn, Gu Chengrui suddenly sat up and shouted out, “I remember who that person is now.”

Zhou Ying, who was sleeping soundly, was jolted awake. When she woke up, she punched him a few times and asked, “What are you doing? Don’t you know that scares me?”

“I’m sorry. I was too excited.” Gu Chengrui grabbed her cute fist and patted her back.

“Fine, what were you talking about?”

“I remember the person who drugged the soup.”

“Who is she?”

“Do you still remember Qiao Lanlan?”

“Qiao Lanlan?” Zhou Ying paused for a moment before she teased, “It’s that rotten peach blossom of yours, right?”

“Yes, but she’s put on a lot of weight. In addition, I hadn’t seen her for a few years, and that’s why I couldn’t recognize her.

“But she’s still the same person if you look closely.”

After Zhou Ying heard this, she suddenly remembered that Seventh Su had promised to save Qiao Lanlan back then. She lamented, “Ugh, power and connections are annoying.

“Back then, when Qiao Lanlan was banished, I guess King Kang was able to save her.”

“As expected in a backwater era. As long as you bribe someone to report her death, it’ll be easy to fish her out of her exile.

“It looks like we have to remind King Rui. Otherwise, something bad might happen..”
