Chu Youning looked at the crowd in the courtyard and let out a deep, helpless sigh.
Sure enough, ** still had me firmly in their grasp.
With that thought, she beckoned to Qian Miao in the courtyard.
"Well, I've got something to do. I'm heading out for a bit."
As she spoke, she turned and left, avoiding everyone.
Qian Miao looked at Chu Youning and asked in utter bewilderment, "Elder Princess, what are your instructions?"

"This is some of the gold my master had transferred here recently. There are roughly a hundred thousand taels here. Where would you like it delivered? I'll arrange for people to carry it over."
"As long as there's enough. Give me the key, then you can go back. I'll bring the medicine over within fifteen minutes."
Chu Youning spoke.
