Chapter 944 Punishment (1)

Mingyu, eager to pick blossoms, enlisted the guards' help. They wandered through the vibrant peach forest.

Suddenly, Zhou Ying heard whispers. "Second Miss, are you certain about this within the Mother God Temple? What if the Mother God discovers and punishes us?"

"Don't be ridiculous," the Second Miss scoffed. "She isn't all-seeing. Here, take this powder. Discreetly slip it into her tea tonight."

"Yes, Second Miss," the guard replied, hurrying away before Zhou Ying could notice.

Using her divine sense, Zhou Ying easily tracked the nervous servant and the cunning Second Miss with a malicious glint in her eyes. She then followed them to another young woman, seemingly downtrodden.

Concerned, Zhou Ying steered Mingyu away and soon arrived at the spot where she and Gu Chengrui had fought Mrs. Tian.

Mingyu paused, taking in the sea of pink blossoms. "In a year or two, this will be a popular spot for scholars, ladies, and even matchmaking."
