Chapter 346



“It’s very beautiful!” Pei Luo’an’s gaze once again fell on the sachet on her clothes and said gently, but then he turned around and strode away.

Only after he left did Qu Xuexin feel like she had come back to life. She stiffly looked up at the Crown Prince, who was surrounded by a large group of attendants.

Then, she lowered her head and looked at the sachet hanging on her clothes. When she saw it clearly, she was stunned for a moment. She subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Qu Moying. It was the sachet that she made at Qu Moying’s place.

Qu Moying drew the pattern for her, and the pattern was Love of Butterfly. Its color was pink. It was delicate and beautiful.

In fact, she had planned to steal the light color sachet that Qu Moying had embroidered by herself because having that sachet would be more convincing if her plan worked. However, she didn’t get a chance to steal it, and her plan failed. She almost forgot her initial motivation of going to Qu Moying to embroider sachets with her.

Qu Moying had been staring at Pei Luo’an from below her eye veil. She also saw that Pei Luo’an looked at Qu Xuexin’s sachet with a thoughtful look. She curved up her lips silently. Did he recognize the pattern, Love of Butterfly?

However, Ji Hanyue was not the only one who could draw this kind of pattern. Even if he knew that the pattern was drawn by Qu Moying, so what?

Moreover, Qu Xuexin had admitted to making that sachet herself.

A maid walked over and said coldly, “Princess Ji invites you in.”

Qu Xuexin hurriedly collected her romantic thoughts and withdrew her gaze. She tidied up her clothes and followed the maid inside. Qu Qiuyan and Qu Moying walked behind her.

The main character today was Qu Xuexin. Qu Qiuyan and Qu Moying just followed her here. As for how to solve the problem, it was not up to them.

There was a medicinal smell in Ji Youran’s room, and there was a bowl with medicine on the table, which was obviously for Ji Youran.

Ji Youran leaned against the couch, and her gaze first fell on Qu Moying, who she thought was different from the other two ladies. She had associated with Qu Moying before, and after that, she found out that Qu Moying was not as easy to bully as others thought.

Ji Youran even suspected that the fact that Concubine Xiang was promoted to become Madam Duan had something to do with Qu Moying. If that was really the case, Qu Moying could not be underestimated.

But it was only her guess, and there was no direct evidence.

Even so, Ji Youran felt that she still needed to pay more attention to Qu Moying. Moreover, if Qu Moying entered Lord Yun Mansion in the future, she would become her aunt.

At the thought of this, Ji Youran couldn’t be happy. She seemed to have a congenital dislike of Qu Moying. Whether it was the first time she met Qu Moying or later when she tried to get close to her, she felt uncomfortable for no reason at the sight of her.

Just like right now, she should have first looked at the troublemaker, Qu Xuexin, but she inexplicably looked at Qu Moying, who was standing behind the other two elder sisters.

She had a weird feeling. She felt uncomfortable, but she couldn’t tell why.

The three of them bowed to Ji Youran together.

Ji Youran restrained the emotions in her heart and asked Qu Moying in a soft voice, “Cousin Moying, why are you here too?”

“I accompanied my Eldest Sister here. Princess Ji, I hope you can forgive her.” Qu Moying gracefully walked out from the back of the line, bowed to Ji Youran, and stood at the side.

Ji Youran waved her hand at Qu Moying. Then, she turned her eyes to Qu Xuexin and asked unhappily, “Speaking of this… First Lady Qu, why did you go to get the Love Lanterns that were the Crown Prince’s? It was alright for me to get the Crown Prince’s Love Lanterns. But First Lady Qu, what was your reason for doing it?”

Her words were quite meaningful. After pondering them, Qu Xuexin’s expression changed drastically, and she explained in a trembling voice, “Princess Ji, it was an accident. I thought they were the Love Lanterns hung by someone else, so I went to get them. I didn’t expect that I would have a conflict with your people.”

Qu Xuexin had no reason to take the Crown Prince’s Love Lanterns. Even Liu Jingyu was not qualified to do such a thing now, so she could not give Liu Jingyu away.

Qu Xuexin was very regretful now. “Why did I want to give Liu Jingyu a surprise? Up to now, Liu Jingyu hasn’t spoken up for me. It is just a piece of cake for her to beg mercy for me.”

At this moment, Qu Xuexin started to hate Liu Jingyu.

Ji Youran asked, “Whose Love Lanterns were you trying to get?”

Qu Xuexin’s face turned red, but she couldn’t say a word. Who else could she say? No matter what she said, people would believe she had an affair with someone.

What was she supposed to say?

“First Lady Qu, please tell me…” Ji Youran was sure that Qu Xuexin must have something to do with Liu Jingyu. Just because of this, she would not let Qu Xuexin off the hook easily.

Qu Xuexin stuttered, “I… I wanted to take those two lanterns because they were beautiful, and I wanted to bring them back.”

“First Lady Qu, do you think what you said is credible?” Ji Youran sneered. This reason was too far-fetched.

Qu Xuexin fell to her knees. “Princess Ji, I really didn’t mean to offend you. At that time, it was a mess, and my brother didn’t see you, so he accidentally pushed the person beside you and caused you to fall.”

Qu Qiuyan looked at Qu Xuexin and did not kneel down. Although her status was low now, who knew what would happen in the future?

Qu Moying also pretended not to see Qu Xuexin kneel down. She would not kneel to Ji Youran. As long as she thought of what happened in her last life, she wanted to eat Ji Youran alive when she saw her.

“Eldest Sister, get up and talk. Princess Ji is asking you about the situation!” Qu Qiuyan stepped forward to support Qu Xuexin while speaking.

Qu Xuexin was the eldest. Since she had knelt down, the two of them were supposed to kneel as well.

Qu Moying quietly went to the other side and supported Qu Xuexin.

The two of them helped Qu Xuexin up.

“First Lady Qu, do you really not want to tell the truth?” Ji Youran said unhappily. She swept coldly over Qu Qiuyan and Qu Moying with an unfathomable look.

She didn’t like the scene in front of her. At this time, shouldn’t the three of them kneel in front of her and beg her?

Qu Qiuyan and Qu Moying didn’t know what was good for them!

Ji Youran had long known that Qu Moying was aloof, but she didn’t expect Qu Qiuyan to be so disrespectful. However, she could understand it as she thought of Lord Jing.

Qu Qiuyan was fighting for Lord Jing!

Thinking of this, she was more determined not to let Qu Mansion’s people off the hook easily.

“Princess Ji, I… I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Of course, Qu Xuexin wouldn’t change her words.

Ji Youran sneered and waved her hand. “Since that’s the case, you should go back first. I don’t want to hear a lie.”

A maid came over and bowed to the three of them. Then, she said coldly, “Ladies, please leave. Princess Ji needs to take medicine. She still felt pain because of the previous injury. The Imperial Doctor has prescribed a lot of medicine for her. She has to rest a lot recently.”

She meant that Ji Youran was seriously injured, and her behavior of driving them away also showed her dissatisfaction with Qu Mansion.

Qu Xuexin panicked. How could she be calm? It seemed that Ji Youran really did not want to spare her, but how could she survive her anger?

She pulled Qu Moying and Qu Qiuyan and looked at them with tears in her eyes. Her lips trembled, and she asked for help, “Qiuyan, Moying.”

“Eldest Sister, what exactly happened? Just tell Princess Ji.” Qu Moying looked at Qu Xuexin and said. Her eyes under the eye veil were serious.

“Eldest Sister, just tell the truth. Who told you to do it?” Qu Qiuyan said it more clearly. Although she tried to hold on, she was in a panic. Something had happened to her in Eastern Palace before, and she was still a little afraid of Princess Ji. It could even be said that she had a guilty conscience. She hoped to solve this matter quickly and leave.

As for what Qu Xuexin would say, she did not care. She just wanted her to say something that Ji Youran could believe.

What she said was what Ji Youran wanted to hear.

Qu Moying echoed, “Eldest Sister, just tell the truth!”

“I…” Qu Xuexin opened her mouth because of their urge, and her mind went blank.

County Lady Jingyu still hadn’t responded to her, and she could no longer hold on.

Qu Moying reminded Qu Xuexin in a low voice. “Eldest Sister, we’re now in Eastern Palace. Since Princess Ji has been badly injured, you should give her an explanation, or it will be bad for both you and Eldest Brother.”

Ji Youran felt Qu Moying and Qu Qiuyan were not too stupid. At least they said the right words in such a situation.

She looked coldly at Qu Xuexin, silently increasing the pressure on her.

Qu Xuexin couldn’t take it anymore. Her legs went soft, and tears immediately fell down. She felt wronged. “I… I was just curious. I wanted to… wanted to take a look, so… so…”

“Curious? First Lady Qu, are you interested in the Crown Prince’s Love Lanterns?” Ji Youran keenly sensed that Qu Xuexin was giving up, and she straightened up slightly. Her goal today was about to be realized.

She did not dare to directly ask the Crown Prince with whom he hung the Love Lanterns, but she could know it from someone else, and this was not crossing the line.

Qu Xuexin stuttered, “I… I didn’t know it was the Crown Prince’s lanterns. I saw a couple go over, and their lanterns were very… very beautiful…”

Ji Youran asked, “You saw the Crown Prince hang Love Lanterns together with a woman?”

Qu Xuexin was so nervous that she just nodded subconsciously.

Ji Youran asked again, “Did you see the Crown Prince hang Love Lanterns with a woman? Did you see that?”

Qu Xuexin said, “Yes… yes!”

“Did you see who the woman was?” Ji Youran snapped, her eyes fixed on Qu Xuexin.

“I… I didn’t see it clearly. I only saw… her back… and I didn’t know it was the Crown Prince either.” Qu Xuexin explained in a hurry. She was panicked and scared.

“Alright, you can go back now. Since it’s a misunderstanding, I naturally won’t pick on you.” Ji Youran had known what she wanted to know, and her attitude softened.
