"In front of my father, take back the things robbed by you from my mother, one by one." Qin Yunuan glimpsed at Qin Zhi and was not scared by the freezing eyes of Qin Zhi. She became more determined now.
"Yunuan, why do you cause the uneasiness of the whole family when you come back for the first time after getting married?" Qin Zhi contained his anger because of the presence of Leng Changxi, but his low-voiced words were already a little bit angry.
"Father, it was not I who caused the uneasiness." Qin Yunuan glimpsed at Qin Zhi lightly as if she had been looking at a full stranger. She was wondering why Qin Zhi, who utilized his marriage to seek profits, would like to take a long-shot gamble to marry a menial embroidering maiden. She thought that Qin Zhi paid sincere love to his mother, but he was wrong.
Qin Zhi married Yang for utilizing her but discarded her indifferently for being not able to utilize her.
"I don’t know where tho
Cut off the relation? No longer one of the Qin family?Qin Yunuan narrowed her eyes and looked at Qin Zhi. In her mind, she mocked the old-fashioned idea of Qin Zhi. It seemed that Qin Zhi thought the surname Qin represented the greatest honor. The Qin Family was among the noblest family in Qi. But after Qin Yunuan saw through the source of the family glory and also the dirt behind it, the identity as one of the Qin Family was already insignificant. She simply didn't care."Father, you must be joking." Qin Yunuan lowered her eyes, "You spoke like how much I cared about this identity.""You..." Qin Zhi was speechless."It's just that according to my current status, getting me out of the genealogy shouldn't be decided by you, father." Qin Yunuan was now the Infanta of the fifth-grade of rank, whose name was engraved in the royal family. How could a small Grand Commandant determine Qin Yunuan's identity?"Even when you be
Leng Changxi cleverly turned his backhand to pull up the sharp arrow in the wood. And then he twisted his wrist lightly again. The sharp arrow cut through the thick air with the smell of blood like a meteor. It shot the squinting archer behind the eaves opposite, directly hitting his eyes that aimed at Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan.Seemingly inspired by Leng Changxi, the troubled queue of Prince Ning's Mansion began to fight back. Eighteen shadow guards had already circled the eaves and got behind the ambushing assassins. Taking out their short daggers, they cut their throats briskly."General, retreat." Shang Xianhua pulled out the heavy sword from his waist. This sword made of black iron was given to him by Leng Changxi on the first day of his entry into the Leng Army. It was no problem at all blocking the arrows.After a while, the alleyway returned to tranquility. Prince Ning's Mansion's queue had a total of fifty-three people, with thirteen
"Sister, don't you find any problem?" Qin Baochuan asked back. He knew that Qin Yunuan was not an ordinary lady. He always recognized her wisdom as well as her effort to protect him.Qin Yunuan stared at Qin Baochuan for long. For the first time, she felt that she could treat him as a grown-up, "Say your thought first."She was encouraging him to think.Qin Baochuan frowned, "I just found it weird. The attack happened only half a tea break's time after we left the Qin Mansion, and the place was near the mansion. However, the Qin Family didn't send anyone to look around. What's more, the eaves where those assassins ambushed were at the back room of the Qin Family, how could they feel nothing at all?"Qin Yunuan already thought of that. This was why Leng Changxi suddenly avoided talking about it and said he knew nothing. If the Qin Family was involved in the case, it would become more complicated.Qin Zhi, Qin Linfeng, Q
Old Madam really meant it when she said something. No one could persuade her to change her mind."He is not allowed to live in the mansion anymore." Old Madam said resolutely. It seemed that she already made this decision before Qin Yunuan came here.Qin Yunuan didn't ask why. She knew that Old Madam must have her own plan. She kept her chin up slightly and said, "I promised my mother I would take Baochuan with me forever."Old Madam looked up at Qin Yunuan. The teacup near her hand had cooled off. As the sun went down, Qin Yunuan's shadow got longer. Old Madam's absolute voice was as loud as a large bell, revealing her majesty. "This is Prince Ning's Mansion, my place. I am in command of everything here. You should learn from your mother about how to get along with me. She's quite good at this. She never makes trouble, let alone the tricky one of being attacked."Shortly after Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi were assaulted, Old Madam,
The old Madam merely raised her head and looked at Qin Yunuan indifferently, and said plainly, "I've allowed your brother to stay, but it doesn't mean that you could ask me anything. You'll naturally know about it later." Then, she lowered her head and focused on taking a sip of her tea.Judging from her attitude, she was willing to accept Qin Baochuan. Qin Yunuan worried the most that the old Madam of Prince Ning's Mansion would crowd out Qin Baochuan, as the Dou Family had a deal with the old Madam. Even though the Dou Family was eradicated, given the behavior of the old madam...Anyway, now that it had been settled. As for that "her" the old Madam was referring to, Qin Yunuan subconsciously related to the one in the Royal Palace. She was immediately daunted by the bold thought of herself. Sisters going against each other, that was too ridiculous. However, thinking of what happened between Qin Yunzhuang and herself, she suddenly felt that anything could b
As people heard the name Shangguan Yi, they immediately made way for him. Even the third level officials nervously ordered their carriage drivers to move their carriage far aside so as not to block Mr. Shangguan Yi's way. Shangguan Yi, the founder of the Imperial College of Qi, renowned as precious by the past Emperor, was a legend in people's minds. However, Mr. Shangguan Yi lived in the regions south of the River in the past decade. Even though many scholars went to visit him, they all failed to actually meet him. Now that they were able to contact the precious of Qi so closely, it was an honor for them.A quaint carriage slowly came from the west side. The black Phoebe wood carriage was luxurious but low-key. Following the black carriage were two carriages with signs of the Shangguan mansion on. They must be the carriages of the Left Chancellor Shangguan Yuan and his daughter, Shangguan Yee.Princess Ning immediately held Qin Yunuan's hand and led her to
The wedding feast was proceeding, but the lotus pond across a courtyard nearby was so silent. There seemed to be an isolated space that excluded the superficial noises and the wishes against people's will.The tranquil sound of Guzheng came from a stilted building. The tranquil melody was like Lingmaoxiang burning around people, which was so relaxing and comfortable."Sir Shangguan Yi, follow me." A maidservant who was dressed as an imperial maidservant guided the gray-hair Shangguan Yi to the void lotus pond, "Sir Shangguan Yi, please be cautious of the steps.""Wait," Though Shangguan Yi was anile, he did not feel exhausted after a long walking but was uneasy in his heart. He saw the jade pendant with the word "Jade" on it, worn by this little imperial maidservant who was pouring wine for him and exposed the jade pendant deliberately to him. And then he got the heartbeat faster. He asked, "Where is the owner of the jade pendant?"
Shangguan Yi wanted to meet Qin Baochuan, and that was precisely the aim of Qin Yunuan. Qin Baochuan had already been taken previously into the imperial palace secretly. It was the big wedding day of Qin Family today, and Qin Zhi focused more on fame, so those concubines and their daughter of the Mansion of Grand Commandant had no chance to attend the wedding feast. If Qin Baochuan had not left Qin Family, he would have been under a house arrest like Qin Yuwan and Concubine Liu.When Qin Baochuan stepped down stably from the steps, Shangguan Yi got excited again that he had not only a granddaughter but also a grandson."I am Baochuan. Nice to meet you." Shangguan Yi felt dense kinship when he saw the sensible and decent Qin Baochuan."OK, get up first. Let me have a look at you." Shangguan Yi held the curtsying Qin Baochuan with much love and gentleness. Having seen this scene, Qin Yunuan just ordered Leng Wu and Maner to ensure nobody was comi
