Chapter 60 Cannot See the Forest for the Trees
The spring breeze was still a little cold at the night on the end of February. The shadows of the crape myrtle trees are trembling and vague in winds, with only Qiu Yelan's eyes brightly shining, looking out of here, mockingly and silently.
It took Qiu Mengmin a while to cover the door, and then he turned around, but with no surprise on his face. He only said faintly, "In the early years, I heard that General Ruan was superior in martial arts. Sure enough, you are a real offspring of Ruan. The servants I sent here to guard?"
"Fainted, over there. I know it's not easy for uncle to cultivate your men. How could I just kill them?" Qiu Yelan covered her lips, laughing, and said softly.
"You know that I haven't learned martial arts, so how about coming here to talk?" Qiu Mengmin blew out the lantern hanging under the back door and greeted, "I guess you stunned my men in the middle of the night, waiting for me here but still keeping the secret for me

About a three-or-four-day walk away from Jing City, there was a little hill, behind which stood a mountain of medium height and in front of which flew a river less than ten Chinese feet. This little hill could be counted as a good place of blessing because of the mountain behind it and the river before it, though neither the mountain was high nor the river was deep."What a good place!" Qiu Yelan said with a half-smile holding the curtain in the carriage which had just arrived at the foot of the hill at sunset. Her eyes were fixed on a frightened hare, especially on its big beautiful back legs, for a long while and she finally decided to switch her eyes to the top of the hill.By the light of the sunset, she could see there were a bunch of people wearing plain clothes."Send someone over and ask them whether they belong to Prince's Mansion of Xihe," Qiu Yelan stared at them for a moment and smiled significantly. "Let the leading person come her
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 62 You Are So Heartless and Ruthless. You Totally Broke My Heart!
Morning, General's Mansion.Backyard.Qiu Yelan pushed the window open with a cracking sound. A few peach blossoms were in bloom in the yard outside the window. They were red like a sunset glow. When the soft wind blew, falling petals went through the yard and entered the room with mist, and finally landed on people’s head softly.She turned around and fawningly flicked away a petal on Ruan Qingyan’s shoulder who was healing his wounds in bed. And then she wiped off the dew he got from the petal with a handkerchief, “Cousin, you are so hardworking.”Ruan Qingyan stared at the book in his hand intently. It seemed that he didn’t hear her.Qiu Yelan wasn’t discouraged. Dongran came in holding a bowl of medicine after a while. She approached and took it over in a hurry. She blew on a spoon of the medicine affably and fed it to Ruan Qingyan, “Cousin, it’s time for your medicine.”Ruan Qingyan tried to avoid and

At Jiang's residence, Lian Chen was surprised when he saw Qiu Yelan. "I thought you are out of town," said he."I've been to the old Princess's and my mother's tombs for a while," said Qiu Yelan. Old Princess Lian's tomb was close to Princess Ruan's. Qiu Yelan wanted to say something privately to Princess Ruan. She commanded Su He and others to sweep the tomb. How could she not feel shame when she said so? "When I was coming back, I forgot to say goodbye to my uncle.""Sure. I should have been there too," said Lian Chen, stroking his long beard. He sighed and continued, "Now we all know how mean Qiu Mengmin is. Lu suicided for fearing the punishment. So, it sounded reasonable for you to mourn them...."Hearing what he said, Qiu Yelan was shocked and said, "Lu suicided because of fearing for the punishment?""This has been concluded by the judge," smiled Lian Jianhao.Qiu Yelan understood that this must be the conclusio
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 64 General Jiang After Bath
Because the matter was so great, at the end of the discussion, Lian Chen still couldn't agree with Lian Ding’s suggestion and he decided to think about some other methods. Chivalry, loyalty and friendship... these sounded like attractive for young people like Lian Ding. But for sophisticated old people like Lian Chen, these are empty words as drifting clouds.Lian Chen had met with Qiu Feng before but still can't believe him; Qiu Yelan, a person who remained doubtful about Ruan Qingyan's origin, was even more reluctant to take risks."Have you ever heard of this guy, Qiu Feng?" Qiu Yelan asked Chunran and Xiaran on the way back to Prince's Mansion of Xihe.Both of them nodded, "Although the Iron Master Qiu only appears for recent few years, but his reputation is so great and spreading so fast that even the stadholder of Jiao Zhou wants to recruit him. However, because nobody knows his origin and he could hardly be met with... so finally, the st

After they had finished talking business, Qiu Yelan asked to leave as she knew that Jiang Yashuang was timid.Jiang Yashuang tapped on the edge of the table and said while pointing at two silver notes, "Put them away. The reason I wanted the six thousand taels last time was that my eighth elder brother dropped by to present his respects to my grandmother. And he asked for the money when he knew about it. I don't lack money, so you don't need to do this."Qiu Yelan took a peep at his countenance and found that he wasn't standing on ceremony. After having pondered for a moment, she put them away and apologized with seeming embarrassment, "Please excuse my imprudence." She murmured in her heart, "The young General is a man of such upright character... Could it be said that he was making it up to me?"Alas, she hadn't encountered a man of such great moral integrity for a long, long time. This would make her coy, OK?She might as well t
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 66 An Unexpected Visitor
Qiu Yelan had a sharp tongue but a tender heart. She weighed that Qiu Jinzhu and her brother were kids and Mrs. Zhou had pleaded for them. Thus, she asked them to stand up soon.However, their servants were not so lucky to escape from punishment. "Su He, you go there and find out who among them bullied you before. Go and get all of them. They must be punished!"Qiu Yelan remembered them clearly, saying, "Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Fan, Xiuyan and the cart driver, and those servants who sent me to the General's Mansion. Get all of them here — Anyone who is not here or reluctant to be here, you tell me the name, I will go and punish them myself."She tried hard to persuade Ruan Qingyan letting her go in an attempt to cash in on this. She, of course, would not stand by and watch it slip away.So, Qiu Yelan ordered Chunran, "You go there too. If Su He is too softhearted, you should be there and take charge! We should see to it that they know our a

Back to her own courtyard, Qiu Yelan unfolded the paper ball and scanned it, and showed an expression of "as expected", "It's just a show by Qiu Hongzhi and Qiu Yinzhi, probably under the guidance of Princess Yang.""How could they be so shameless!" Su He's face was red with anger. "Sixth Commandery Princess and Young Master Qiu Yinzhi put a damper on Empress's recent praise to Your Grace, and Your Grace told them that they were used as pawns. But they turned to work with Young Master Qiu Hongzhi to go against Your Grace!"Qiu Yelan touched her little head smilingly, "It's not the first time that they have been so shameless. You need to get used to it.""What should we do now?" Su He didn't want to refute and became upset. "Now that they are on the same side now, their servants will follow them. Especially the servants we just beat....""Then we can beat them again!" Qiu Yelan ordered slowly. "I remember there is a colored glass ha
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 68 Hey, Time to Pay the Protection F*e!
After hearing the news that Princess Yang forbade Kang Lizhang to go out of her yard, Chunran and others were a little worried, “Did Princess Yang find out about Lady Lizhang and us….”“There is nothing to be afraid of! Even if she knew that I bribed Kang Lizhang to work for me, what’s she going to do to me?” Qiu Yelan didn’t care, “Besides, Kang Lizhang won’t be grounded so easily. You guys just wait and see!”If Kang Lizhang had already shown her hand to Qiu Mengmin, Qiu Mengmin would definitely have her back. If she hadn’t, she was even less likely to accept the grounding punishment. Considering how sophisticated Cousin Kang was, if she went for drastic measures, Princess Yang who was sick right now might not be able to stop her.Just like what she thought, when it was about noon, Su He heard some news and said, “Lady Yuqing threw a tantrum. Even a dozen of old maidservants couldn’t pin her down. She barged into Prince’s bedroom and asked hi
