Minister of Rites Lin Mansion.
Main courtyard.
At this moment, Lin Qingyue was standing in the corridor not far from the main courtyard, seeming to lack the courage to approach.
Throughout her journey here, she encountered people who tried to stop her, relying only on Qian's silver to get close to the main courtyard.
This was enough to prove her lowly status as a concubine-born daughter, and that Madam's control was too strict.
After taking a deep breath, she took the first step towards the main courtyard, only to be stopped by someone at the entrance.
"Oh, Jiaojiao, what are you doing here?" The speaker was Miss Cui Xue, a trusted aide by her father's side.
Qian had told her that Cui Xue was Madam's confidant, so she had to be extra cautious around her.
However, she hadn't expected to run into her so soon. Bribing her with money would definitely not work, so she followed Qian's advice and said, "Greetings, Cui Xue."
