Chapter 1,223
According to Ling Yu's plan, Xiao Lintian found the list and information of those slaves for Ling Yu.
Ling Yu was probably familiar with their respective origins, so she and Han Yu followed the Prince Rong's purchasing team into Prince Rong's Mansion without arousing anyone's suspicion.
The current steward of Prince Rong's Mansion is He Rong's own steward at the farm, He Qiang, and Xiao Lintian investigated him.
He Qiang is in his forties and is a domestic slave of the He family. He was the eldest follower of He Rong's father and was very loyal to He Rong.
He is married and has a son, and his son He Yang is also He Rong's follower. His wife helps He Rong manage the farm.
Ling Yu only looked at the information and didn't see what was special about He Qiang, but after sneaking in for a long time, she discovered that He Qiang was a powerful character...
Ling Yu and Han Yu entered Prince Rong's Mansion and went their separate ways. She was working in the kitchen with a woman in her thirties.
This woman was the cook steward given to Prince Rong by Emperor Wu'an. Her surname was Luo. She kept Ling Yu after she saw Ling Yu coming in to help with shopping and delivering groceries.
Ling Yu's pseudonym is Ling'er, which is the name on the list.
For the sake of safety, the real Ling'er has been kidnapped by Lu Nan during the chaos, so no one will find out that Ling Yu is fake unless they are familiar with Ling'er.

"The wedding ceremony is in two days, and there are not many capable people in the kitchen. This makes it difficult for me no matter how talented I am!"
Madam Luo complained as she ordered her men to categorize the dishes.
Ling Yu helped count the lists and listened to their conversation with open ears.
At this time, He Qiang walked in with a nanny in charge.
He Qiang knows martial arts and is not weak at all.
The first time Ling Yu saw him, she felt the aura of a warrior in him.
He is tall and thin, and his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, which makes people feel creepy when he glances at them.
When the servants who were working and chatting in the kitchen saw him, they immediately fell into silence.
Ling Yu also wisely pretended to be afraid, lowering her head and looking at the ground with a respectful look.
He Qiang's eyes swept across everyone and stopped on Ling Yu.
Although Ling Yu did not raise his head, his hair stood on end instantly.
Could it be that He Qiang noticed something unusual just after he came in?
Cold sweat broke out on the tip of Ling Yu's nose. This place was full of people from the He family. If her identity was exposed, she would have no chance to escape.
He Qiang and the others killed her and destroyed her body. Xiao Lintian had no evidence to prove that she entered Prince Rong's Mansion!
Did I think too naively before? Too underestimated?
Ling Yu was nervous when He Qiang came over and stopped in front of her.
"You...look up!"
Ling Yu calmed herself down in her mind and raised her head pretending to be timid.
"What is your name?"
He Qiang asked expressionlessly.
"Ling...Ling'er!"
Ling Yu pretended to stutter.
He Qiang looked at her and suddenly asked: "Where are you from?"
"Wei...Weizhou..."
Ling Yu didn't choose Ling'er randomly. She saw that Ling'er's ancestral home was Weizhou. She had been to Weizhou before and learned some local accents, so she chose this person to pretend to be.
"How many people are there in the family?"
He Qiang asked again.
Ling Yu's face twitched, asking such a detailed question!
Fortunately she was prepared!
She said timidly: "My father died long ago, and my brother, mother, me, and I are the only ones in the family..."
He Qiang looked at Ling Yu intently again, his overwhelming momentum not restrained at all, which made Ling Yu feel suffocated and breathless...
