Jiang Ruoyao suddenly felt itchy all over her body and had rashes all over her face, which made Ji Shuran worried. She suspected that the culprit of all this was sandalwood, which caused Jiang Ruoyao's allergy.The maids hesitated and even falsely accused Xue Fangfei of containing sandalwood in the earrings she gave her.Jiang Yunbai personally took off the earrings and inspected them, and found traces of sandalwood.Xue Fangfei remained calm and insisted that she did not place the sandalwood, while Ji Shuran insisted that the stolen goods were stolen and asked her to give an explanation.

Xue Fangfei proposed to be alone with Jiang Ruoyao, claiming that he had a way to relieve her discomfort.Ji Shuran had doubts, but Jiang Yunbai decided to give her a chance.After everyone left, Xue Fangfei saw through Jiang Ruoyao's trick at a glance, and she tried to force Xue Fangfei to admit her jealousy.Jiang Ruoyao turned a deaf ear, convinced that Jiang Yunbai would believe in her more.

Xue Fangfei had already anticipated the follow-up development. She knew that Xiangqiao had changed the earrings. The earrings she bought at a high price from Jixianglou had been replaced by fakes, and all the evidence pointed to Xiangqiao.Tong'er had secretly observed and discovered that there was a conflict between Yun Shuang and Xiang Qiao, but Jiang Ruoyao thought that Xue Fangfei was sowing discord.Xue Fangfei admitted that she did this just to protect herself and did not want her reputation to be damaged again.

Xue Fangfei made it clear that she did not want to be an enemy of Jiang Ruoyao and that she came back just to get back what belonged to her.She hopes Jiang Ruoyao can think carefully.Ji Shuran and others were waiting outside, deliberately creating momentum and claiming that Xue Fangfei could not solve the problem.However, Jiang Ruoyao finally came forward to clarify that she had misunderstood Xue Fangfei, and the matter was settled.

After Jiang Yunbai left, Jiang Ruoyao blamed Ji Shuran for making such a bad move, causing her to suffer in vain, and asked her to come up with the antidote.After Mrs. Jiang learned about this, she sent Granny Zhang to make pear soup and asked Xue Fangfei to come over and ask about the situation. She was worried that Xue Fangfei would be misunderstood again.Mrs. Jiang also ordered the maids to be rearranged and drag away Xiangqiao and Yunshuang who were causing trouble in the house for sale.

Jiang Jingrui admired Xue Fangfei very much, and especially liked the little turtle she gave her.Mrs. Jiang felt guilty towards Xue Fangfei. She was well aware of Ji Shuran's methods, but she could not interfere too much in family affairs.Aunt Zhang sent Xue Fangfei a new maid, Bai Xue, from Zaohua Village, which reminded Xue Fangfei of her old maid Haitang.However, Bai Xue said that she had never heard of Haitang's name and promised to write home to ask.Tong'er was puzzled by this, while Xue Fangfei was worried that Haitang had also suffered misfortune. She hoped to find Haitang to learn the truth about the framed incident.

Jiang Yunbai felt sorry for Ji Shuran's hard work and recalled how she looked when he first met her. At that time, she was not burdened by trivial matters at home.Ji Shuran showed a virtuous and virtuous side and proposed to arrange a marriage for Xue Fangfei.She praised Zhao Qi, the youngest son of the Minister of Civil Affairs, as an outstanding talent and believed that he was a good candidate worthy of entrustment.Jiang Yunbai agreed to the proposal and informed Xue Fangfei of the matter.Although Xue Fangfei guessed that this was Ji Shuran's plan and wanted her to leave the Jiang family, Tong'er thought that Zhao Qi was indeed a good choice.However, Xue Fangfei felt that this matter was a bit strange.

The Jiang family invited the Zhao family as guests and arranged for the two to meet.Zhao Qi is indeed a talented person. When the two were alone, Zhao Qi bluntly expressed his hope that Xue Fangfei would marry into the Zhao family and have children for him. What he only admired was Xue Fangfei's beauty.Xue Fangfei saw Zhao Qi's problem, and she guessed that Zhao Qi already had other women outside.So, she scolded Zhao Qi unceremoniously.Zhao Qi was worried that this matter would be known to his family, so he expressed in front of his parents that he did not like Xue Fangfei.

Xue Fangfei recalled her old friend Dai Yun. She hated those romantic men who used women as reproductive tools.On the other side, Xiao Heng led people to surround Yang Song's home, only to find that Yang Song had hanged himself.Xiao Heng realized that he had been trapped.

At the court, Kong Zhaofeng, the Secretary of Salt and Iron, requested that he be given a chance to make up for his mistakes. Emperor Hong Xiao hoped that he would act cautiously.Shen Yurong proposed a reform plan for the imperial examination, aiming to provide more opportunities for children from poor families.However, Li Zhongnan believed that the previous imperial examination system should not be abolished. He was worried that outstanding candidates would be missed.Jiang Yunbai held a different opinion. He believed that the former imperial examination system could easily lead to collusion between officials and officials, so he advocated reforms in academic administration.

Emperor Hong Xiao knew that there would always be shortcomings in the early stages of the New Deal. He authorized Shen Yurong to preside over the selection work for the annual examination, hoping to select outstanding talents who were truly interested in becoming officials.Li Zhongnan privately summoned his sons Li Jin and Li Lian and told them that the money in the Salt and Iron Division had stopped flowing and could not fill the hole.They plan to look for opportunities from Ye Shijie of the Ye family, but they have not found the right time yet.
