Hearing Lady Qi's screams, a group of servants rushed into the room to see what was happening. Faced with this sudden turn of events, they panicked and were at a loss as to what to do. Amidst the chaos, however, a brave servant mustered up his courage, carefully caught the snake, carried it outside, and quickly cleaned up the broken pieces on the floor.
It took Lady Qi quite a while to recover from her fright. Looking at the shards scattered across the floor and the snake that had been taken away, a surge of anger welled up inside her. She summoned all the servants and scolded them severely, blaming them for their carelessness in letting such a thing happen. At the same time, she ordered them to find out the truth as soon as possible and figure out how the snake had managed to get into her room.
In the quiet of early morning, after finishing her breakfast, Liu Ye'er resolutely said to Wang Danlu, "Aunt Wang, you must find a way to drive Lady Qi out of the estate and send her back to her hometown. Only then can you truly become the mistress of the Prefecture Office." Wang Danlu looked troubled and replied, "It won't be easy to chase her away."
