No one understood Ye Mei better than Shen Miao. If Ye Mei wanted to get something from the Ye family that was enough to compensate her, gold, silver, and jewelry were far from enough. What she wanted was eternal power.
In all the years that Ye Maocai had been in the Daliang Dynasty, apart from the reputation and wealth of the Ye family, the most valuable thing he had was probably some dirty secrets of the Daliang Dynasty's imperial court. Perhaps there were secrets of the royal family, or perhaps of the court officials. When one had secrets, one had weaknesses. These secrets were probably used by Ye Maocai to control the other officials, or they were evidence that he had carefully collected. However, one thing was certain. The secrets were very important, so important that they could ruin the Daliang Dynasty.
And this was exactly what Ye Mei wanted.
