“What happened?” Qu Moying grabbed the window to stabilize herself and asked.
Yu Chun lifted the curtain and poked her head out for a look, only to see a gaily-painted pleasure boat of the same size parked near theirs, “My Lady, another boat crashed into ours.”
Before she was done, another bang was heard. The boat shook. Qu Moying’s hand went limp, almost getting her thrown out.
“My Lady, it crashed into us deliberately.” Qu Chun also found something wrong and said angrily.
“Tell the boatman to fight back.” Qu Moying grasped the window corner with force and said coldly.
Yu Chun nodded and shouted to Zhou An outside, “Fight back!”
Zhou An had found the other boat crashed into theirs deliberately. In such a case, he used to fight back regardless, but now he didn’t want to make trouble for Qu Moying, so he tried to avoid the collision.
Hearing what Yu Chun said, he knew Qu Moying’s intenti
“Who is your master?” Qu Moying asked casually.“I…I serve the Third Lady and just come back.” The woman servant replied hurriedly.“You wanted to throw me into the water by running into my boat, right?” Qu Moying continued. Though her eyes couldn’t be seen, the coldness in her words was clear. “Who came up with the idea?”“I…I…” The woman servant let her eyes wander and looked around.Suddenly, the rudder to which she clung was pressed into the water, making her sank with it, too. Her head was submerged, so she swallowed much water. Her hands and feet went limp, and she felt again that she would die here.“My Lady, I mean…the Third Lady sent me here…” The woman servant shouted and struggled desperately to get out of the water. She wanted to browbeat Qu Moying by virtue of Qu Qiuyan’s influence.The rudder rose out of the water, and so did the woman servant. She almost lied prone on the rudder and c
Two boats collided. A woman servant fell into the water and was rescued. Afterward, she fell into the water again and was interrogated on the rudder. At last, she was released.It lasted a long time and was noisy. Though people on the bank didn’t see that, many passengers in the boats heard the noise and came to see the fun.Some of them saw the girl wearing a long veil on her eyes and handling things calmly. Though they just caught a glimpse of her, they couldn’t help guessing her identity secretly. A young lady, ranked fourth in her family, had an eye disease. Besides, according to the woman servant, the ringleader was the Third Lady.Various clues led some people to focus on the Mansion of Vice Minister Qu. Qu Zhizhen had a blind girl, didn’t he? He also had an elder girl with a good reputation.And the two daughters were not born of the same mother.Indications showed that it was the Third Lady
“My Lady, I’m glad you come here!” Once getting off the carriage, Qu Moying saw Granny Miao waiting aside.“They came to see me?” Qu Moying asked. She guessed what happened through Granny Miao’s anxiety.“They have come here several times for you. I said you had been gone to fetch a doctor.” Seeing Medical Officer Zhang get off the carriage behind, Granny Miao breathed a sigh of relief.“Granny, please take Medical Officer Zhang slowly to the Furong House of my sister. I’ll visit the Old Lady first and then go there.” Qu Moying said.She emphasized the word “slowly”. Taking her hint instantly, Granny Miao nodded repeatedly and smiled happily, “OK, My Lady, I will take the Medical Officer there.”Granny Miao hadn’t expected that Qu Moying would fetch the Medical Officer of the Imperial Hospital.She wasn’t worried about her medicinal powder. The way to prepare it was arcane, and it was alien to the C
Qu Moying ran into Granny Miao near Furong House.Granny Miao had been showing Medical Officer Zhang around for a while. As she saw Qu Moying, she brought him to the latter excitedly at once. Then they walked into Furong House together.As they just stepped into the yard, they heard someone shouting abuse. A keen-eyed maid went into the room to report their arrival at once.“That bitch is here? Let her in!” Qu Qiuyan’s voice came from inside the room.Medical Officer Zhang frowned.The maid who had delivered the message walked out in a hurry. After she arrived at the door, she glanced at Qu Moying and lifted the curtain, saying in a sarcastic tone, “Fourth Lady, you are so busy. It took you so long to get here. Third Lady told you to get in!”The maids who served Qu Qiuyan never respected Qu Moying, thus this maid also looked down upon Medical Officer Zhang who followed Qu Moying. After all, those d
“Yes, I am!” Medical Officer Zhang looked at Qu Qiuyan with a sullen face.Although his official rank was not as high as the vice minister, he had a lot of chances to meet the nobles from the royal family as an imperial doctor. Many officers always turned to him for help and even the prime minister respected him a lot.The look on Qu Qiuyan’s face turned awkward. She had thought that this man was just a quack and never did she realize that he was from the imperial hospital.But her mother told her that Qu Moying had just returned to the capital and didn’t know a lot of people. How did she manage to find the medical officer?“Are... you lying?” Qu Qiuyan said suspiciously.“Third Lady, are you questioning me now? Fine, I'm on duty in the imperial hospital today. Why don’t you come with me?” Medical Official Zhang snorted.As Qu Qiuyan heard his intimidating words, her face turned red and green. She f
Pei Yusheng, known as Lord Jing, was the crown prince’s biggest competitor. He was given birth by Noble Consort He.Noble Consort He had enjoyed the Emperor’s favor for years. She was also the sister of Empress Yuan who had passed away. It was said that the sisters had been very close. She had gone to the royal palace to look after Empress Yuan who had been sick at that time. Then she had stayed in the palace ever since.In Qu Moying’s previous life, she had met Noble Consort He more than once as the future Crown Princess. So Qu Moying knew some stories about her.And Medical Officer Zhang was in the story.“What’s the relationship between them?” Qu Qiuyan wanted to marry Lord Jing the most. Hearing that, the look on her face turned nervous right away.Qu Moying picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for herself slowly. Then she looked to Qu Qiuyan, “Third sister, Medical Officer Zhang is Nobl
Qing He had been locked in the shed for a whole day. As she heard a sound coming through from the door, she got excited at once.“Third Lady, I...” As the door was opened, Qing He looked over tearfully. Then the look on her face turned panicky at once. Because it was Fourth Lady who was standing by the door with a veil covering her face. A few days ago, Qing He had still despised Qu Moying a lot. After all, Qing He was the personal maid of Third Lady, the most favored lady in this family and had never taken the Fourth Lady who had been left in the estate seriously. When Third Lady Qu had told her to set the fire, she hadn’t hesitated at all because no one would care what happened to Fourth Lady!However, now Qing He didn’t dare to look down upon Qu Moying anymore. Moreover, when she looked at the latter, she even trembled.Then she lowered her head in a hurry and said, “Fourth... Fourth Lady.”Qu Moying walked
Xu Lipeng, Young Master Yongning, was the fiancé her mother had chosen for her long ago.He was considered one of the few talented young men in the capital. A lot of noble madams wanted him to be their son-in-law. Compared to those playboys, he was really a great man.Qu Moying’s had weak eyesight, but he had never asked to cancel the engagement and had even claimed publicly that he would marry her. The engagement had been settled when Qu Moying’s mother and Madam Yongning had been very close. At that time, Qu Moying hadn’t been born yet. Anyway, the engagement still couldn’t be broken!Because of that, Young Master Yongning had received more compliments. People praised that he was a faithful guy who was even willing to marry a blind and ugly girl whose mother had died.Of course, it was merely hearsay. People said Young Master Yongning was a kind and gentle man and the Yongning family had never looked down upon Qu Moying. H
"Miss Liu, the king said that there is no female master in the residence, so he is not in a position to receive you, and asked if there is anything important you need?" A guard descended from the steps and walked to Liu Lanxin's carriage, giving a respectful salute inside.Liu Lanxin's carriage was again blocked in front of the Ying Wang Mansion."It's an important matter, a message from father's side." Liu Lanxin reached out and pressed the cuff of his sleeve, there was indeed a letter there, a letter to the King of England.The guards didn't dare to delay the border matter and said to Liu Lanxin, "Miss Liu wait a moment."After saying that, he turned around and went inside to report.This time it took a little longer to get in, long enough for the originally chesty Liu Lanxin to feel like things weren't a little unexpected again.Finally, the guards reappeared and smiled at Liu Lanxin, "Miss Liu, our king invites you in.""Good!" A big sto
Zhu Yan'er did not expect Yu Dong actually remembered her, and also demolished her identity, but in her reaction is also fast, slightly flustered after, immediately asked with a smile; "Which house are you from?""Slave servant is from the Qu Mansion, Miss Zhu, please." Yu Dong moved to the side and reached out to lead the way to the private room.Zhu Yan'er this is also difficult to ride the tiger, had to make a look with a few points of bewilderment to the private room, as if she really did not mean it, originally just want to make some trouble out of it, and now also put themselves into it.Yu Dong, the maid, was still recognized by the people around her just now.Her features carried a bit of the innate cluelessness of a young girl, easily inviting, and while some were skeptical, there was a part of her that was immediately convinced that she was truly innocent.It's just the maids under her that are petulant.A maid is not good, even the mast
That rather strange Mr. Zhao was actually amongst the crowd, standing with his hands behind his back under a store on one side, watching the slowly moving carriages on the street.Looking at his upright posture, it is hard to believe that he actually also came to see the fun, should be coincidentally encountered, and he has been blocked up like himself."Mr. Zhao?" Yu Dong saw her stop moving and her gaze looked over.Qu Mo Ying nodded and turned to leave after a couple more looks.Down the stairs, got into the carriage, followed the traffic slowly forward, the curtain of the window of the car outside a layer had been picked up before, the inner layer is made of yarn, from the inside can see the outside, but the outside can not see clearly inside.It wasn't annoying to pass by while looking at the passersby on both sides of the road.See that Zhao Gongzi again, a flash, in fact, did not see clearly, this Zhao Gongzi seems to be talking to a person
"Is it Fourth Miss Qu?" Outside was a maid, looking a little familiar, Yu Dong thought a little and immediately recognized it."It's our young lady." With a slight smile, she stepped forward and replied, giving a bow to the woman standing behind her, Miss Liu Lanxin, the daughter of the Auxiliary General, still wearing the appearance of a thin veil over her eyes."Our lady is from the Auxiliary General's residence, and we have met your lady before." The maiden laughed."Slave girl will go report to our young lady." Yu Dong turned around and went in, and when she came out again she invited Miss Liu in."Miss Liu!" Qu Mo Ying stood up and saluted.Liu Lanxin also smiled and gave a salute, and the two of them politely took their seats."Fang looked like Fourth Miss Qu, so I came over to meet her." Liu Lanxin smiles, "Since the last time I saw Fourth Miss Qu, I didn't expect to see her after such a long time."The last time the two met was in th
The carriage slowly moved forward, Qu Mo Ying sat in the carriage, there has been a period of time did not go to the auxiliary to visit, this time to take advantage of the matter of clothes to go by the way to go to the Yueyi Pavilion to take a look.Qi Gongfu today and sent people over, said some details of the matter, the dowager lady thought to also pay attention to some details, never let people from the top of the clothes than the Qi Gongfu.The more clothes cabinet is doing this kind of business, Qu Mo Ying got the meaning of the dowager lady to the more clothes cabinet to pick some of their own, but also with the shopkeeper Yang aunt to discuss how to better, this aspect of Yang aunt can be regarded as a competent hand, the most will help people accessorize the clothes, some small details, it is possible to affect the overall feeling."Why is it still stuck in traffic?" The carriage had been stuck in the traffic jam for some time, Qu Mo Ying gently lifted th
Sister Miao was from the northern border and had come to the capital before to find someone to join her.In fact, it's not really a family member, just looking for the original village old folks, the village because of a disaster, almost no one escaped again.This part of the past, what Qu Mo Ying knew was not clear, this was Sister Miao's hidden pain, since Sister Miao was not willing to talk about it in detail, she would not force her.In the next period of time, the Duke of Qi's residence sent people over from time to time to deal with some small problems in the details, fearing that there would be the slightest mistake.Attitude prudent so that Mrs. Qu feel that the Duke of Qi is not too much attention, originally just change one of the three, is not the most important set of clothes at the time of the big make-up.Qi Gongfu so practice let her a lot of pressure, as if Qi Gongfu do more than she this pro-grandmother, but also on the heart, is to sho
"Miss, this is the jewelry sent by the Duke of Qi's residence, saying that it's for use with the clothes." Yu Dong walked in with a gift box in her hand.The gift box was put down, and after Sister Yan walked over and opened it, she took a look at it and nodded, "Miss, this is an excellent set of jewelry, it's very suitable for a maturity dress, and I'm afraid the value of this isn't small.""After dispensing, send it back." Qu Mo Ying's eyes were pale as he said."Sending it back, miss, I'm afraid this is not in keeping with etiquette!" Sister Yan shook her head, a big family, since it was sent, where was the reason to return it."The Duke of Qi gave me such a big gift, where can I accept it raw, I have to return the gift, choose one of similar value and return the gift!"Qu Mo Ying thought for a moment and said, she was not willing to owe the Duke of Qi at all, as long as she thought of her mother's death, she felt that the jewelry in front of her wei
"Mother, what is the matter you called me over for?" As Liu Jingyu entered, she playfully bowed to Mrs. Liu."Sit here mother." Mrs. Willow beckoned to her.Seeing her mother's rare closeness, Liu Jingyu was in quite a good mood as she took two steps forward and sat down next to Mrs. Liu.Mrs. Liu looked at Liu Jingyu to say something."Mother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Mrs. Liu in this form, Liu Jingyu's face sank and she asked eagerly."There is nothing much, just heard the news that came from the Duke of Qi's house before, and felt ..." Mrs. Liu sighed a long breath, and the words came here, and for a while she actually couldn't go on."What did Grandmother do again? Something to do with Qu Mo Ying?" Liu Jingyu asked almost intuitively.The feeling as if she was a natural enemy immediately lifted her spirits.Mrs. Liu nodded gently, "Your maternal grandmother recently did not know what was wrong, but actually so close to this y
"What does Mrs. Qi mean?" Mrs. Qu looked at the matron of the Duke of Qi's house in front of her and said in surprise."Qu second lady's matter, we all feel guilty all over the house, the old Duke of State almost wanted to move to Jiangnan, directly to Qu second lady's father to ask for forgiveness, but the Duke of State did not agree, the old Duke of State must be older after all, I heard that the Qu fourth young lady is going to have her maturity rite, our dowager lady's intention, want to make a set of clothes for the Qu fourth young lady."The granny sent by the Duke of Qi's residence was very good at talking, sighing, feeling, and finally longing.The people of the King's House came and left with great fanfare, a little inquiring to know the meaning of the King's House, actually want to make a set of dresses for this Qu fourth young lady at the time of the maturity of the big makeup."His Highness the King of England has already sent someone."
