It was said that when Fourth Lady Qu returned to Qu Mansion that day, she had injured her ankle. Back then when she stayed a little longer at Crown Prince’s Mansion, it was to let Imperial Doctor check on her injury.

She had even alarmed the Imperial Doctor. She was really making a big fuss over nothing.

Pei Qingmin clearly remembered that the person who had bumped into his young servant at that time was one of Fourth Lady Qu’s maids. And the maid reacted quickly and immediately stood up. So, why was there a rumor that Fourth Lady Qu had been injured and even had the Imperial Doctor from Crown Prince’s Mansion to check on her?

This statement was really unpleasant.

Originally, it was no big deal. How did it turn into such a statement? Moreover, it even caused a ruckus in the palace. The first thing Pei Qingmin felt was wondering what Fourth Lady Qu was up to.

Although he was weak, he was still a Prince. Thus, he was not entirely useless for those noble ladies who did not have high statuses and wanted to marry him.

Fourth Lady Qu was Vice Minister Qu’s daughter, and she was also a daughter who was not favored. Even her original engagement had been called off. Perhaps she had some plans up her sleeves.

This made Lord Wei very unhappy.

Although he was sick, he had the pride of being a Prince. His mother was naturally not favored in the palace as much as the Imperial Noble Consort, but it was also not bad. At least, compared to the Empress, she could be considered to be favored.

If not for his body, he might have been able to fight for the throne.

But right now, there was no need for him…

“Is that a wheelchair?”

“I didn’t see it, but it looks like it.” The young servant replied.

“Let’s go!” Pei Qingmin was just asking casually. He waved his hand and the curtain fell. The carriage driver turned around and slowly drove the carriage toward Lord Wei Mansion.

Lord Wei was not like the others. His poor health was widely known, and his movements should remain light and stable.

Other Masters would be fine even when they were slightly jolted, but Lord Wei could not afford even a bumpy ride.

Qu Moying had just returned to Qu Mansion when the old maid, who was waiting there, summoned her to Qu Zhizhen’s study. After asking Granny Zhou to go back first, Qu Moying sat in the wheelchair. Then, Yu Dong pushed her to the study.

The reason why Qu Zhizhen looked for her at this time must be that the matter of the Ji Family had been reported to Qu Zhizhen. They must have wanted to use this so-called father of hers to suppress her and force her to let Concubine Xiang go back.

Originally, the reason why she brought Concubine Xiang over was unsolid, and in fact, it was just a loophole.

Qu Moying got off the carriage at the door of the study and held Yu Dong’s hand to enter. After she entered, she bowed.

It was very quiet up there. After a long time, Qu Moying’s body swayed, and Yu Dong hurriedly reached out to support her.

“There’s no need. Sit down first!” Qu Zhizhen’s cold voice sounded.

Qu Moying held Yu Dong’s hand and sat down on a chair.

“Father, what did you call me over for?” Qu Moying looked up and asked calmly. Just now, this so-called father of hers was deliberately punishing her. He deliberately did not ask her to get up and only said something after seeing her stand unsteadily.

“I heard that you interfered with Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s matter? You are really bold.” Qu Zhizhen’s face sank, and he reprimanded coldly.

“Father, all I did was ask about Cousin Yanyue. How does that make me bold?” Qu Moying calmly raised her head and composedly looked at Qu Zhizhen.

“Do you know the status of Earl Ling’an’s Mansion?” Qu Zhizhen’s gaze was as sharp as a knife.

“I do. They are the Crown Prince’s in-laws. They were in the past, and they are now as well,” Qu Moying answered calmly.

“It’s good that you understand! Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s identity is not something that we, Qu Mansion, can compare to. Are you qualified to meddle in Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s affairs?” Qu Zhizhen narrowed his eyes, becoming more and more displeased.

“I just wanted to ask about whether Cousin Yanyue is dead or alive. They said that Cousin Yanyue is dead, but they also hinted that Cousin died a disgraceful death,” Qu Moying said indifferently.

“Even so, it has nothing to do with you. Where did you get the courage to meddle in such a thing?” Qu Zhizhen said angrily. His gaze swept over Qu Moying’s face, and then his expression became slightly cold. He lowered his voice and waved his hand. “Hurry up and return Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s concubine to them. Earl Ling’an’s coffin is still in the mansion. What is the meaning of his concubine following you here? Are you pushing me into the fire? This is outrageous!”

“Father, Concubine Xiang has already gone back. When she was halfway on the road, Concubine Xiang got off the carriage and said that she wanted to go back. I wanted to send her back, but she said no,” Qu Moying said.

“She left?” This result was really unexpected for Qu Zhizhen. He turned to look at the old maid who had sent a message to Qu Moying just now, and the old maid nodded silently.

“Yes, she has left. She should have been back by now,” Qu Moying said indifferently.

At this time, there was no need for Earl Ling’an’s Mansion to look for Concubine Xiang. Concubine Xiang had entered the governor’s mansion, and what happened next was not something that the Ji Family could control.

“Good to hear that she was sent back. Don’t meddle in such things in the future.” Qu Zhizhen breathed a sigh of relief. He did not care much about the difference between “she should be back” and “she was sent back”. He thought they were the same.

“Father, the Ji Family’s Third Lady is my younger cousin sister.” Qu Moying looked up and insisted.

“So what? The Crown Princess is even your elder cousin sister. You don’t have much contact with each other in the past. At this time, the Crown Princess is gone and the Ji Family’s first branch has fallen. You are just a little girl. Are you saying you want to investigate the Ji Family? Even if there is another cause of the death of Third Lady, it is not something a lady of the low-ranking Vice Minister can investigate,” Qu Zhizhen suddenly said earnestly.

“I, too, am powerless in this matter. Compared to Earl Ling’an’s Mansion, a Vice Minister is really too weak.”

“Father…” Qu Moying’s eyes moved a little, carrying a bit of surprise.

“Well, this matter is over. Since that concubine has left, Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s matter has nothing to do with us. Don’t you go to Earl Ling’an’s Mansion in the future again. They were originally not close to us. It is only after you came back that we started to have contact with them.”

Qu Zhizhen waved his hand and interrupted Qu Moying.

“Go back and rest first. Your foot is injured, and it is inconvenient for you to walk.”

“Yes, Father!” Seeing him like this, Qu Moying knew that he would not listen to her explanations anymore, so she did not force him. She held Yu Dong’s hand and stood up. Then, she said goodbye to Qu Zhizhen and left the study in the wheelchair.

The whole process was completely different from what Yu Dong had imagined. On the way, Yu Dong wanted to say something but remained silent several times. In the end, he held back and did not ask any questions on the way.

After returning to Qianyue House, Qu Moying got off the wheelchair and sat down in the main room.

After Yu Chun fetched some water to freshen up Qu Moying, he then poured a cup of tea and came in.

“What is that?” Qu Moying’s eyes fell on the table full of brocades.

“These were sent by Master. He said they were just kept in his private warehouse. He hasn’t been using them, so he gave them to you, my lady. He said that you don’t have many clothes with you.” Yu Chun smiled happily.

Looking at it, there were at least a dozen pieces of brocades here, and the material looked very good. The colors and patterns were particularly suitable for ladies.

More than a dozen of them were of such patterns. It could be seen that they had been carefully selected. Moreover, they were sent by Qu Zhizhen. It was really surprising. Ever since Qu Moying returned to the mansion, this so-called father of hers had not shown much kindness to Qu Moying. This time, the kindness came too suddenly.

“My lady, did the Second Master feel guilty for you, so he suddenly became good to you?” Yu Dong had wanted to speak for a long time. When he saw the brocades on the table, he asked in confusion.

Qu Moying shook her head. “No!”

If he felt guilty, he would have felt guilty a long time ago. Why would he wait until now?

“Today, the matter of you taking Concubine Xiang away from Earl Ling’an’s Mansion has really attracted criticism. I thought that Second Master would definitely be furious, but he was only angry for a while in the beginning, and then he treated you very well, my lady.” Yu Dong said.

The behavior of the Second Master today was indeed very strange.

It was as if he truly loved his daughter. However, everyone knew that he did not have any affection not only for his first wife but also for the daughter of the first wife. Otherwise, after so many years, he would not have allowed such a young lady to live in the village all on her own.

“It’s up to him!” Qu Moying sneered. She really did not care about Qu Zhizhen’s performance. In her heart, there was only one father, Earl Ling’an. As for Qu Zhizhen, this so-called father of hers, she only maintained her respect for him on the surface.

Today, regardless of whether Qu Zhizhen interfered or not, the result was the same. She did not care about what kind of nasty attitude Qu Zhizhen showed.

“My lady, how do we deal with these?” Yu Chun pointed to the pile of brocade in front of her.

“Send these to Third Lady and let her select a few,” Qu Moying said lightly. These brocades should have been taken out from Qu Zhizhen’s own private warehouse, but she did not care. However, Qu Qiuyan was not a person who could swallow insults silently.

“Yes, I will send them over now.” Although Yu Chun felt it was a pity, her lady had made an order, so she naturally agreed. She found a few old maids to carry these brocades and went to Qu Qiuyan’s yard.

When she came back, she brought back six bolts of brocades.

Out of the twelve bolts of brocades, Qu Qiuyan had returned six of them. She said that she wanted to share them equally with Qu Moying. She did not pick more, nor did she pick less. She was also a daughter of Qu Zhizhen, so it seemed very reasonable for her to do this.

But in fact, for so many years, only Qu Qiuyan had always possessed things. Since when did Qu Moying have a share too?

After Yu Dong left, Qu Qiuyan’s face immediately turned livid. She picked up a bolt of brocade from the table and smashed it on the ground. The maids stood on both sides in fear, not daring to interrupt.

“Clean it up.” After a long while, Qu Qiuyan said with a cold face. One maid quickly squatted down to clean up the mess. She did it softly, and she did not dare to make a sound.

Qu Qiuyan sat on the chair with a cold face. A malicious look flashed through her eyes. After a long time, she stood up and walked outside. Her maid, Qing Ju, hurriedly followed her. After walking for a while, she found that Qu Qiuyan was going to Second Master’s study. For a moment, Qing Ju was shocked. Her face was pale, and she wanted to go forward to stop Qu Qiuyan.

If Qu Qiuyan went to make a scene at the Second Master’s place at this time, Second Master would definitely get angry. At that time, as her maid, Qing Ju would definitely be punished.

However, Qu Qiuyan suddenly stopped and turned in another direction with a gloomy face. Looking in the direction of Qu Qiuyan’s line of sight, Qing Ju breathed a sigh of relief. As long as her lady did not go to Second Master, it was fine…
