Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations 142.93.60.102

Qin Zhenzhen and her grandmother, both led by the housekeeper, were escorted to a beautifully appointed room.

They were strictly instructed not to leave the Empress Dowager’s chambers until she woke up.

With a gracious smile, Qin Zhenzhen expressed her gratitude to the housekeeper, saying, “Thank you, Madam.”

She had sensed that the housekeeper, whom she respectfully referred to as “nanny,” was clearly on their side.

Taking the initiative to introduce herself, the nanny said, “You can call me Mrs. Lin.”

This revelation caught Qin Zhenzhen by surprise. As the nanny responsible for the Empress Dowager’s care, Mrs. Lin held a high position in the palace. Yet, here she was, referring to herself as an “old servant” in front of them.

Mrs. Lin quickly clarified, “Madam Su, there’s no need for astonishment.

Although I serve the Empress Dowager, I also answer to Young Master Su.” “Young Master Su? Are you referring to Su Bin?” Qin Zhenzhen’s surprise deepened.

Since when had Su Bin’s influence extended so far?

In addition to handling business affairs for Qin Zhenzhen, Su Bin had also tapped into a substantial portion of the Marquis Mansion’s finances.

He understood deeply that to contend with the influential families of the capital, he needed not only a powerful ally but also substantial wealth and influence.

On the surface, Mr. Chen appeared to assist Qin Zhenzhen with her business matters, but in truth, he operated under Su Bin’s direction.

Strictly speaking, Mr. Chen was Su Bin’s trusted confidant.

Su Bin felt fortunate to have crossed paths with Mr. Chen, and he cherished the fact that Mr. Chen had officially acknowledged him as his mentor.

Mr. Chen’s lineage traced back to generations of advisors, with his family amassing a vast network of connections and sources over the years.

Within the palace, the households of princes and marquises, and even among the families of high-ranking capital officials, a web of informants discreetly operated.

Over time, those who thrived on selling information had amassed significant wealth.

However, Mr. Chen’s father had encountered a precarious situation when he inadvertently offended a king. The king dispatched investigators to scrutinize their background, nearly severing all their connections.

Fortunately, the Old Marquis intervened and shielded Mr. Chen’s father. Nonetheless, their family had to relinquish a substantial portion of the wealth they had painstakingly accumulated over the years.

For the past two decades, Mr. Chen’s father had served as a butler within the Marquis Mansion. Nevertheless, he diligently continued to nurture their network of connections.

It was their lifeline to eventually regain their standing, as the network that had been disrupted in the past gradually reestablished its roots over the years..
