Chapter 188



“Granny, let’s talk about the future later,” Qu Moying said indifferently.

Her biggest opponents were Crown Prince and Ji Youran. To her, Xu Lipeng was just a small obstacle in her path. She would not take him seriously.

Qu Moying casually picked up a book on the table and flipped through it.

It was a book that the embroidery workshop had sent over. It was something that the embroidery workshop had sorted out. They asked her to pick out the embroidery patterns on her sleeves and collar by herself.

Her watery eyes scanned across the embroidery patterns on the book. Qu Moying casually picked a few butterfly patterns, put the book down, and asked Granny Miao to tell the embroidery workshop.

She indeed needed clothes. Since she was going to enter the palace, her current clothes were indeed not suitable. She also did not know what Dowager Consort Qu in the palace was planning. Dowager Consort Qu had never expressed her favor to Qu Mansion. The so-called relationship between her and Qu Mansion was at most just the same surname.

They had not been in contact for so many years, but now they suddenly had a connection. No matter what, it did not seem like she really wanted to contact Qu Mansion. Moreover, she was only contacting Qu Moying, showing her kindness and love to the latter.

Qu Moying actually had a wild guess in her heart. Was this matter related to Pei Yuanjun?

“Fourth Lady, Lord Yun Mansion sent some people over.” Just as she was thinking, a familiar voice came from outside. It was Granny Wu again.

“Invite Granny Wu in,” Qu Moying instructed Yu Chun.

Yu Chun hurriedly lifted the curtain and left, bringing Granny Wu in shortly after.

“Greetings, Fourth Lady.” After Granny Wu came in, she looked a little uneasy. She first bowed respectfully and then said, “Fourth Lady, Lord Yun Mansion sent some people over.”

“What?” Qu Moying did not understand for a moment. Her watery eyes blinked, and she was surprised. She did not think that Qu Mansion had anything to do with the high and mighty Lord Yun.

“It’s Lord Yun Mansion. They said that Lord Yun had bumped into you before. He felt sorry and specially asked his servants to send gifts to you,” Granny Wu said uneasily.

This was out of their wildest expectations. Not only was she surprised, but even the Old Lady was also very surprised. The Old Lady was very anxious as she saw Lord Yun Mansion’s men just now.

Maybe none of the noble ladies in the capital would not panic when receiving Lord Yun’s gifts.

Lord Yun was the Fiend in the capital. He had never been a kind person. Besides, he was in charge of the darkest and most bloodthirsty place, West Prison.

“Old Lady asked me to bring these people over. They are outside the door.” Seeing that Qu Moying was silent, Granny Wu thought that Qu Moying was also shocked. Granny Wu hurriedly reminded her that she could not let Lord Yun Mansion’s people wait outside for too long.

“Invite them in first!” Qu Moying nodded.

Yu Dong went out and soon came in with a eunuch. There were two maids behind the eunuch, each holding an exquisite gift box.

As soon as they entered, the eunuch first smiled and bowed to Qu Moying. Then he said, “Fourth Lady Qu, Lord Yun is very sorry for hurting you. He asked me to send some gifts and apologize to you.”

After saying that, he turned around and opened the two gift boxes. The dim room suddenly became brighter.

The two boxes were full of jewelry and accessories, each of which was exquisite and extraordinary.

Granny Wu’s eyes couldn’t help but shrink, and her heart became more and more panicked. What was this Lord Yun trying to do?

“Thank Lord Yun for me.” Qu Moying frowned slightly, but she still responded appropriately, “However, my injury is a small matter. I don’t deserve so many gifts from Lord Yun.”

“Fourth Lady Qu, you are too polite. Lord Yun said that these jewels would be just sitting in the mansion anyway. They are not of much use. It is just right to send them to you as compensation. He hopes that you will not frown upon them,” the eunuch said with a smile. No matter how one looked at it, he looked sincere.

However, Granny Wu felt her hair stand on end when she heard this. Was this something that the powerful Lord Yun should say?

She had only heard that Lord Yun was arrogant and lascivious. He was also cold-blooded. She had never heard that he looked highly upon any lady from any family. When he was in a good mood, he would send back those beauties sent from the palace to him. But when he was in a bad mood, he would directly chop them down. Even so, no one dared to say anything.

How could such a person say such modest words?

“Is there anything else Lord Yun says?” Qu Moying thought for a moment and asked tentatively.

“Nothing else. He just feels sorry for you, Fourth Lady Qu. He hopes that you will forgive him for his rashness.” The eunuch was getting even politer.

These words sounded like a few words of courtesy, but when had this Lord Yun ever given face to any lady of any family and said such polite words?

Granny Wu became more and more nervous. She came over because she wanted to see what was going on. Later, the Old Lady would ask her about the specific situation.

Everything in front of her really made Granny Wu sweat nervously.

How strange!

Did the infamous Lord Yun change into a new person? Hearing what this eunuch said, she wondered whether he was talking about the same Lord Yun who could make children cry and had a fiendish reputation.

“Lord Yun is too polite, but I really don’t dare to accept these gifts.” Qu Moying gently refused.

“Fourth Lady Qu, you are too polite. I am just a gift-sender. Now that the gifts have been delivered, I will take my leave.” The eunuch waved his hand, and the two maids placed the gift boxes on the table. Then, they bowed to Qu Moying together with the eunuch and left together.

Unexpectedly, they did not care whether Qu Moying accepted the gifts or not. They just left her these gifts forcefully.

Granny Wu looked at the surprised Qu Moying and could only chase after the guests to see them off. Qu Mansion could not afford to offend even Lord Yun Mansion’s eunuch.

When Granny Wu politely sent the guests off to the entrance of the mansion, she stood there for a while before calming down the fear in her heart. She turned around and returned to the yard to report to the Old Lady.

This was strange. At this time, the Old Lady also grew very cautious as if she was facing an enemy.

“Were these words said by the people sent by Lord Yun Mansion?” After listening to Granny Wu’s words, the Old Lady frowned tightly, extremely uneasy.

“Old Lady, could it be that Lord Yun has taken a fancy to our Fourth Lady?” Granny Wu thought for a moment and carefully reminded her.

“Impossible!” The Old Lady denied without even thinking.

“Why…? I feel that it is possible. After all, Fourth Lady is so beautiful. Even in the capital, there are few ladies who can outshine her.” Granny Wu hesitated for a moment and then retorted in a low voice.

There were only Granny Wu and the Old Lady in the room, and Granny Wu had been the Old Lady’s servant for so many years. At this time, Granny Wu dared to say some things.

“Lord Yun is not a person who is greedy for beauty. Many years ago… wasn’t that person also outstanding in appearance? But in the end…” The Old Lady sighed, and her heart became heavier. The Old Lady would never believe that Lord Yun had taken a fancy to her granddaughter.

What kind of person was Lord Yun? What kind of beautiful women did he not have around him? She had never heard that there was a woman he liked. Even the Emperor was worried about his marriage. However, this Lord Yun kept delaying the marriage. He had no intention of getting married. None of the beauties sent to his mansion could catch his eyes.

At this time, he suddenly showed goodwill to her granddaughter. The Old Lady was very worried. In addition, Dowager Consort Qu suddenly sent a Discipline Granny over and also cozied up to Qu Moying by sending her gifts. The Old Lady felt that something must have happened, which she did not know yet.

“Go and see if the Second Master is back.” The Old Lady felt uneasy. She stood up and sat down again. Then she instructed. This matter was very important. The Old Lady felt that she had no way to deal with it. It was better to let her second son analyze it.

“I will wait for the Second Master now.” Granny Wu looked at the Old Lady, who was in a daze. She knew that the Old Lady was worried, and she nodded.

Qu Zhizhen was also very busy these days. He basically did not stay long in the mansion. He had already returned to the court and had many things to do in the government office.

Just as the Old Lady was in a state of confusion and anxiety, Qu Zhizhen had actually returned to the mansion, and he was back earlier than usual. He hurried towards Yu’s yard after getting off the carriage. It was Yu who had sent him a message and asked him to return.

When he entered Yu’s room, he glanced at the emaciated Yu lying on the bed. Qu Zhizhen sat far away on a chair, his expression turning cold.

“What is it?”

“Something happened to Qingmeng in the mansion today. I heard that it was related to the Fourth Lady… I didn’t dare to deal with it on my own, so I specially invited you back…” Yu coughed a few times and said weakly.

“What happened?” Qu Zhizhen asked unhappily.

“It was a miscarriage, and there was a commotion. I heard that it was the Fourth Lady who picked up the fight. She provoked Second Lady of Duan Mansion, who then got angry and pushed Qingmeng.”

Yu coughed again and reached out to cover her chest weakly. “Second Master, when Young Master Yongning left… he was so angry that he had a livid face. Second Madam Duan also went to find the Fourth Lady to make a fuss. With my condition, I don’t know what they are doing now…”

Yu gasped for breath again.

Although Duan Jinxiang was the one who slapped Yu Qingmeng, Yu had already hinted to Second Madam Duan that if Second Madam Duan insisted that it was Qu Moying who provoked Duan Jinxiang to attack Yu Qingmeng, she would definitely stand on Second Madam Duan’s side and let Qu Qiuyan testify for Duan Jinxiang to prove that Qu Moying had said something provoking.

As soon as Second Madam Duan left, Yu sent someone to ask Qu Zhizhen to come back.

After that, Second Madam Duan was scared away by Granny Yan at Qu Moying’s place and was in a hurry to investigate the doctor. She did not say goodbye to Yu and directly left. Until now, Yu did not know that Second Madam Duan had already gone back.

Qu Qiuyan did not interfere with Yu’s matter. She was afraid of being implicated, so she did not pay attention to Yu. What she wanted to do now was to stay away from this incident as if it was unrelated to her. Of course, she would not care about what Yu did now.

Yu had lost her power in the mansion. There were fewer people around her, and she was not so well-informed. At this time, she was still talking about such things, and she looked very concerned. When those words reached the ears of Qu Zhizhen, who had inquired a little about the incident after returning to the mansion, they became more and more ear-piercingly ridiculous.

All of these things were caused by “visiting the sick Yu”!

“Mother is in charge of the affairs in the mansion. You should just rest and recuperate. You don’t have to see guests from now on,” Qu Zhizhen said coldly and stood up.

“Second Master… Second Master…” When Yu saw Qu Zhizhen’s expression, she immediately knew that something was wrong. She charged up to the bedside and looked at Qu Zhizhen pitifully.

“You are sick now. For the sake of the two children, you should take care of yourself. From now on, everything in the mansion has nothing to do with you. You just need to take care of yourself.” Qu Zhizhen sneered, turned around, and strode away.

“Second Master… Second Master…” Yu anxiously wanted to get up, but she had a blackout. She only cried out twice before fainting. Hai Lan hurriedly went forward and patted her back, calling her anxiously.

When she looked back, Qu Zhizhen had already left…
