Chapter 185



Outside the room, Xu Lipeng’s face was ashen as he paced around in circles. Qu Qiuyan was also helpless. Coincidentally, a doctor came over to Yu’s place. Moreover, he brought a female doctor with him. At this time, they were checking on Concubine Yu inside.

When Qu Moying and Duan Jinxiang came over, Xu Lipeng’s gaze first fell on Qu Moying’s face. Then, it turned to Duan Jinxiang’s face, and his expression immediately became a bit cold. The gaze he fixed upon Duan Jinxiang was so cold and gloomy that Duan Jinxiang immediately lowered her head in fright. She involuntarily slowed down, and she hid behind Qu Moying’s wheelchair.

At this time, she did not have the mood to find fault with Qu Moying, nor did she dare to look directly into Xu Lipeng’s eyes. She was trying her best to hide herself.

“How is Concubine Yu?” Qu Moying asked gracefully.

“I don’t know yet. It seems…” Xu Lipeng had a headache. His brows furrowed even more tightly, and he was extremely vexed. If Yu Qingmeng hadn’t insisted on coming to Qu Mansion today, saying that she wanted to apologize to Qu Moying, Xu Lipeng wouldn’t have come over today. Thinking of this, he immediately became a little angry at Qu Moying.

He shot Qu Moying an unfriendly gaze.

Qu Moying met his gaze emotionlessly. She did not dodge it. The corners of her lips curved up silently. She said politely, “Young Master Xu, please sit by in the wing room and wait for the results first.”

This kind of thing should not have been handled by her and Qu Qiuyan. Just now, she had sent someone to report to the Old Lady. After all, they were both unmarried ladies. This kind of thing was not suitable for them to handle.

The only one who could make decisions on this matter in Qu Mansion’s backyard now was the Old Lady.

“Thank you, Fourth Lady Qu. I am worried and anxious. If you want to rest, go and rest!” Xu Lipeng said in a bad mood.

After Qu Moying glanced at him, she no longer paid attention to him. She turned around and entered the wing room. Qu Qiuyan hesitated for a moment and followed her in.

Seeing the two sisters go in, how could Duan Jinxiang dare to face Xu Lipeng directly? She hurriedly followed behind Qu Moying and went in.

The Old Lady’s people came very soon. After entering the yard, they asked Qu Moying and Qu Qiuyan to go back first. Since the Old Lady was here, the two sisters left.

Following the Old Lady was Duan Jinxiang’s birth mother, Imperial Banquet Minister’s wife. When she saw her mother, Duan Jinxiang immediately rushed over and cried loudly with aggrievance. Her family finally came at such a time, and Duan Jinxiang was full of grievances.

“Alright, don’t cry, don’t cry. This matter can’t be blamed on you. I heard that it was just a concubine. You bumped into her, and so be it. She can’t do anything to you, can she?” This madam was the step-wife of Imperial Banquet Minister. She was usually arrogant in the mansion. While comforting Duan Jinxiang, she glared at Xu Lipeng.

It was obvious that Duan Jinxiang inherited her mother’s personality. Both were extremely unreasonable and selfish.

Xu Lipeng almost got angry from being glared at. Since the incident happened, he had not been feeling good in his heart. After all, this was his first child!

Although Yu Qingmeng entering the Marquis Yongning’s Mansion was not his original intention, considering the child in Yu Qingmeng’s belly and Yu Qingmeng’s desire to please him, he slowly compromised.

The mansion had already prepared everything and was waiting for this child to be born. He hadn’t expected that such an incident would happen when he visited Qu Mansion.

Hearing Imperial Banquet Minister’s wife’s words, he felt even more aggrieved.

Qu Moying left when Imperial Banquet Minister’s wife said such words that implied something else. When she reached the outside, she instructed Yu Dong to leave and only kept Yu Chun to push her back inside.

They took it slow. When she returned to the yard, Yu Dong had finished running errands and returned.

“My lady, I heard that this doctor came this morning, but because the Second Madam was not satisfied with some of the medicine, she has been discussing it with the doctor, so he has not left.” Yu Dong left to inquire about this news. At this time, he had already known the ins and outs clearly.

“Where did this doctor come from?” Qu Moying asked gently.

“I heard that he had a clinic in the city, and he has a good reputation. But unlike the doctors in the past, this is the first time he came to our mansion,” Yu Dong said.

At first, Yu’s doctors had been changed several times. Even the Imperial Doctor from the palace had come to see her. After that, there were not many differences between the diagnosis of normal doctors and the Imperial Doctor, so she did not bother the Imperial Doctor anymore. She invited a doctor with a good reputation. After that, Yu had been seeing the same doctor. And every time he came, he had never brought a female doctor with him.

Yu’s illness had been directly diagnosed. In the past, people who were sick in the mansion would also be directly checked on by the doctor. Yu was not an unmarried lady, so she was not bound by strict rules.

Naturally, there was no need for a female doctor.

This time, not only was the doctor waiting in the mansion, but he also brought a female doctor with him. It was as if he had been waiting here for a long time. Combined with the previous arrangements, Qu Moying was now certain that Yu Qingmeng had entered Qu Mansion this time for her “belly”. Her goal was to accidentally bump her “belly” which could cause a miscarriage.

Given the situation back then, the reason why Yu Qingmeng insisted on marrying into Marquis Yongning’s Mansion must be that she had been pregnant. Since Qu Moying could think of this, Yu Qingmeng could do it too, and it seemed that she had already used this tactic. However, when she was pregnant, her belly would show a baby bump sooner or later. A period of time had passed, and Yu Qingmeng was almost unable to hide it now.

This was why she had planned this today.

It was most likely that she was scheming against Qu Moying. That was why she did the previous series of actions, like writing letters and sending gifts to her. Today, as long as Yu Qingmeng met Qu Moying, Qu Moying believed that Yu Qingmeng would have the ability to blame this matter onto her. Granny Miao had also said just now that Young Master Xu, who was protecting Yu Qingmeng, had come to look for her.

Qu Moying thought about it carefully. If Xu Lipeng came to look for her, she would have more grounds to look for Yu Qingmeng. Out of jealousy, Qu Moying might blame the engagement annulment on a concubine and ruthlessly push the concubine, which would cause a miscarriage. If this were spread out, Qu Moying would be said to be vicious.

Of course, it was also likely that she might have a conflict with Duan Jinxiang. By that time, Qu Moying would be said to be having an affair with Xu Lipeng.

The corner of Qu Moying’s lips curved silently, and her smile was chilly. It was not just one person who schemed against her. This was considered a matter that was carried out layer by layer, and there was some pushing effect between the layers.

Whether it was her having an affair with Xu Lipeng, or her pushing Yu Qingmeng and causing the latter to have a miscarriage, it was all because she was Xu Lipeng’s ex-fiancee, and it was also related to the affair between her and Xu Lipeng.

However, unexpectedly, Duan Jinxiang found out that Xu Lipeng had accompanied Yu Qingmeng for a walk, and Duan Jinxiang had not really gotten angry with Qu Moying yet or had a falling out with her yet. Judging from the Imperial Banquet Minister’s wife’s personality, Qu Moying knew that Duan Jinxiang was not a reasonable person.

Qu Moying also recalled her seat just now. If this Second Lady Duan got angry and pushed her down from the window, causing her to fall into the lotus pond below, it would only be said that she deserved it because she did not have self-respect. She was in a messy relationship with Xu Lipeng even after their engagement had been called off.

And there must be some evidence to prove the messy relationship between Xu Lipeng and her.

Qu Moying couldn’t figure out this key point for a moment.

But one thing was certain. If Duan Jinxiang had pushed her into the water from the pavilion, with two maids around her, her life would not be in danger, but this matter would have blown up. Then Yu Qingmeng having an accident would be blamed on Qu Moying. Maybe Yu Qingmeng would come to visit her, or maybe her maid, rather than herself, would meet Yu Qingmeng.

The arrangement was very detailed, and almost every step was set against her.

“Granny Miao, you go and tell Young Master Xu about the doctor. Ask him to investigate this doctor,” Qu Moying ordered. She had already made up her mind.

“My lady, I will go now.” Granny Miao nodded and left.

Qu Moying closed her eyes and leaned backward. Yu Chun came over and gently massaged the acupoints on her forehead to relieve her fatigue.

“My lady, did the Second Madam and Third Lady plot this against you?” Yu Dong stood aside and said after thinking about it carefully.

Qu Moying nodded silently.

“My lady, are we going to let them go just like that?” Yu Dong said indignantly.

“I’m not letting them go, but someone else will help me do it.” The corners of Qu Moying’s lips curled up slightly. Duan Jinxiang might be a nobody, but her mother was obviously powerful.

“Later, go outside and write ‘investigate the doctor’ and throw it to the place where the madam will see on her way out,” Qu Moying said. This matter had to be done by Yu Dong. Only then could it not be discovered. The other maids were not as nimble as Yu Dong.

She let Yu Dong write it and let Yu Dong throw it. In this case, even if someone investigated, they would not be able to find out that it was Qu Moying’s doing. With Yu Dong’s ability, writing a few words that others could not read whose handwriting they were was just a piece of cake.

Yu Dong immediately understood what Qu Moying meant. He grinned wide and nodded repeatedly, “My lady, I will do it now.”

“There’s no hurry. They won’t leave so soon.” Qu Moying shook her head and did not open her eyes.

This matter had gotten to this point. Even though Grandmother was dealing with it, it would not end so easily. Yu Qingmeng would not let it go, and Imperial Banquet Minister’s Mansion would not admit this matter.

They would definitely make a fuss. Fortunately, this matter had nothing to do with Qu Moying. No matter how they made a fuss, it was fine.

Both Yu Qingmeng and Duan Jinxiang came here with ill intentions. Now that these two were facing each other, Qu Moying was only setting up a small trap. What would happen next would depend on the Marquis Yongning’s Mansion.

“Yu Dong, go and investigate the matter of the Taoist nun sending us the wheelchair grease,” Qu Moying said. But then she shook her head again. “Wait, forget about it. Don’t investigate.”

“My lady, why not?” Yu Dong asked curiously. Since his lady felt that there was something wrong, he would just investigate.

“We have to wait.” Qu Moying shook her head.

“My lady, what are we waiting for?” This time, even Yu Chun grew curious.

Qu Moying no longer explained. She paused for a moment and said, “Let’s stop here for now. Keep using the wheelchair. This grease is most likely related to Marquis Yongning’s Mansion. Even if we investigate, we won’t find much. It will only implicate Young Master Yongning.”

This was what she suddenly realized just now. This was a trap—a trap that lured her or someone else into investigating. It was too obvious, and it was also too convenient for people to tamper with it. The person who sent grease here didn’t need to say who she was. She could just say that she was from Qingyun Temple. For people who were not familiar with her, they wouldn’t be able to tell who she really was!

Since that was the case, she would pretend that she did not know for the time being.

However, what Qu Moying did not expect was that Imperial Banquet Minister’s wife had actually angrily rushed to Qianyue House, looking as if she were to denounce someone for his crime…

Fortunately, although this was an accident, Qu Moying had already prepared for it long ago…
