"Grandma, please save me. I don't want to go to Prince Jing's Mansion. This is all Qu Qiuyan's idea. It has nothing to do with me. She was the one who wanted to scheme against my fourth sister and asked me to do something, but she ended up making me like this. Grandma, please save me." Qu Caiyue was disheveled like a madman. After being pulled away, she crawled on her knees a few steps and was about to come to the old lady.
Qu Moying stepped forward and stopped her.
Seeing that it was Qu Moying, Qu Caiyue shuddered and didn't dare to rush over again.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Qu Caiyue, you want to die yourself, so don't harm me." Qu Qiuyan cursed angrily. She was sober now, but she still looked like a madman. Her hair was a mess and several strands of hair were pulled out. She stared at Qu Caiyue, wishing she could bite her to death.
"Grandma, it really has nothing to do with me. It was really Qu Qiuyan. She..."
Qu Caiyue wanted to explain, but saw the lady waving her hand.
"Don't say anything. Your mother will make the decision about your affairs. I am old and can no longer take care of your affairs. From now on, you will enter the Jingwang Mansion and you don't have to come back."
Two maids came over, pulled her up and walked out.
“Grandma, grandma…” Qu Caiyue was shocked and wanted to say something, but she saw a maid took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into her mouth, then pulled her out.
The maidservant beside her also arrived at this time and cried beside her, but she didn't dare to say anything, let alone go forward to pull her away.
The group headed towards the East Palace.
Luo from the East Palace had already heard the news by then, and was furious. When she investigated the matter, she heard that it was Qu Moying's maid who caused the trouble when she went there. But when she asked further, she said that it was not the maid's fault, as it was Qu Caiyue who beat the maid who brought the gift, and then ran to the West Palace to cause trouble.
After finding out the whole story, Luo was furious. No matter how you looked at it, Qu Moying came to give her the gift with good intentions, but Qu Caiyue didn't appreciate it and deliberately caused this accident. Then she made an excuse to go to Qu Qiuyan to make trouble, which led to the old lady's blame. She had the servants take her directly to the East Palace, and the entire East Palace was embarrassed.
Luo was already angry with this concubine's daughter, and now she was even more furious. She was not afraid of what Qu Zhilin would say when he came back. She simply had her washed and combed hastily, tied her up and threw her into the sedan chair. The little maid took a small package and followed behind her crying. The sedan chair entered the Prince Jing's Mansion.
From then on, she was thrown into a corner of Prince Jing's mansion, becoming a concubine with no name or status, no longer the daughter of the former censor.
"Third girl, did you really harm your sister?" In Furong Pavilion, the old lady asked everyone else to go down, and then asked angrily to Qu Qiuyan who was sitting on the ground in a mess.
"Grandma, I didn't do that. It was my second sister who went crazy. I don't know how she went crazy. She just ran over and bit me to death. I actually didn't know anything. When they entered the palace that day, it was my second sister and my fourth sister who were together. It had nothing to do with me." Qu Qiuyan had already woken up by now and explained while crying.
She would never admit to this no matter what.
The lady looked at her coldly, her eyes condensing.
Qu Moying said nothing and had a calm expression. He did not react much to Qu Qiuyan's defense. He just raised his head to look at the lady, then slowly lowered his head with a somewhat gloomy look on his face.
Anyone who encounters this kind of thing would feel very uncomfortable. Regardless of whether Qu Qiuyan really attacked Qu Moying together with Qu Caiyue, from what Qu Caiyue said just now, it is clear that Qu Caiyue is
There must have been violence. No matter how you look at it, Qu Qiuyan is not innocent, but Qu Moying is the most innocent victim.
At this time, Qu Moying did not make a fuss, but his expression was gloomy. The old lady felt even more distressed when she saw this. This child was a sensible one. He did not seize on this matter to complain about his grievances, but just endured it silently and prayed for peace. It was really pitiful.
"Grandma, I really... really don't know anything. I was just sitting in the room quietly when my second sister rushed in and tried to hit me. I was so angry that I started fighting with her." Qu Qiuyan saw that the old lady was silent and became panicked for a moment.
The lady's eyes fell on her again, "Third girl, are you really not plotting against your sister?"
"Grandma, I really didn't do anything. I can swear that if I had been with my second sister and harmed my fourth sister when I was in the palace, I would have died a miserable death." Qu Qiuyan was afraid that the lady would not believe her, so she swore a poisonous oath and walked forward crying, "Grandma, I really don't know anything. I don't understand why my second sister would come to me when she was fine."
“I’ve been very sad these past few days… but… but I can’t do anything, Grandma… I… what should I do now? My second sister is like this, what should I do? I… I really can’t live anymore.” Qu Qiuyan stopped explaining and changed her way of crying.
Thinking of this, she felt really aggrieved, because she couldn't stop crying half-heartedly, and it seemed like her real feelings.
Qu Moying pursed her lips slightly. Qu Qiuyan was bringing up the grievances she had suffered. There was mockery in her eyes. Qu Qiuyan had brought this upon herself and it was not unfair at all.
The relationship between Qu Qiuyan and Prince Jing is clear to others, so how could the old lady not know it? Now that Qu Caiyue has entered Prince Jing's mansion, it is indeed a difficult question for Qu Qiuyan to deal with the situation in the future. The old lady only hates that Yu was short-sighted and let Qu Qiuyan and Prince Jing fall in love with each other so early on, which now makes the entire Qu family very passive.
One granddaughter was put in jail, and what should be done with the other granddaughter? The old lady had been so worried about this matter these days that her mouth was covered with blisters. When she heard what Qu Qiuyan said, she became even more angry. She slapped the chair railing twice with her hands, feeling depressed.
"Grandma, let father take care of this matter. But right now... what should we do? Second sister has just made such a fuss, the whole mansion must know about it." Qu Moying calmly brought the conversation back.
Just now, Qu Caiyue ran all the way here from the East Mansion to the West Mansion, and saw many servants. Later, Qu Caiyue and Qu Qiuyan even had a fight. The maids and old women who were trying to stop the fight saw and heard it all clearly.
"Someone, tell the maids and old women here to stop talking nonsense." The lady gathered her thoughts and nodded. This matter had to be dealt with first.
A maid went out to beat the servants of Furong Pavilion.
"Grandma..." Qu Qiuyan saw Qu Moying taking the subject back and hurriedly spoke again.
Qu Moying calmly interrupted her and said, "Grandma, you are not feeling well. Go back and have a rest. I can't let you worry so much about the affairs of my second and third sisters. Father will have the final say when he returns."
"Your father..." Speaking of her second son, the old lady remembered his partiality towards the mother and daughter. She felt that her granddaughter was getting more wronged, and she didn't want her to be wronged anymore. Looking at the embarrassed Qu Qiuyan, the old lady's face darkened, "Come here, take
"Miss Three was taken to the Buddhist temple and told to copy the scriptures carefully!"
He doesn't even mention the time, which means it's not certain when the copying will be finished.
Qu Qiuyan was unwilling to do so and said in a loud voice: "Grandmother, I have just sworn that I really did not harm Fourth Sister. It was Second Sister who harmed others. Now you are throwing dirty water on me. Think about it, I... How could I send someone to Prince Jing's Mansion..."
Speaking of this, Qu Qiuyan felt extremely aggrieved and cried even more sadly.
The old lady frowned. What she said did make some sense. Based on Qu Qiuyan's personality, it was impossible for her to send Qu Moying to Prince Jing's Mansion. Was it really Qu Caiyue who did it alone, and she even pushed the blame on her
The old lady was very suspicious, and looked at Qu Qiuyan carefully, trying to get a glimpse of her face. However, Qu Qiuyan looked aggrieved at this moment, and looked at the old lady pitifully with tears in her eyes. She looked so delicate no matter how she looked at her, and it was not like she would have such a vicious thought.
The lady was undecided for a moment and remained silent.
"Grandma, my third sister still has to take care of the affairs of the mansion. It is not convenient to keep her confined to the Buddhist temple at this time. It would be better for her to go to Dabei Temple to ask for a good Buddhist scripture to get rid of her inner demons." Qu Moying said implicitly.
The old lady nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Things in the Qu Mansion were very chaotic and weird recently. The old lady also thought that going to Yong Dabei Temple to worship Buddha might help get rid of the bad luck. Originally, it was not so urgent. She just kept thinking about it in her mind. Now she felt that it was indeed a good way to get rid of the bad luck.
She was exhausted at the moment and really wanted to ask the Bodhisattva. The small Buddhist temple at the back could no longer satisfy her thoughts.
Qu Moying knew that the old lady was a Buddhist, and she had been going to the small Buddhist temple at the back more frequently recently, going there almost whenever she had free time. It was obvious that the old lady was very upset, but she had no other choice but to pray to the gods and worship Buddha.
If she brings this up now, it will certainly be in line with the Madam's opinion and it can also be regarded as a plea for Qu Qiuyan, so Qu Qiuyan will not have any objection.
The date I had agreed with Concubine Xiang is coming soon. I was thinking about how to bring it up, but now is a good time.
As for Qu Qiuyan, she was not in a hurry. If Qu Qiuyan wanted to enter Prince Jing's Mansion, she would help her. However, how to enter in the end was not up to Qu Qiuyan.
Now, no rush...
When she heard that going to the Great Compassion Temple to ask for a Buddhist scripture did not mean locking herself up in a small Buddhist hall, Qu Qiuyan nodded repeatedly and sobbed, "Grandma, what Fourth Sister said is absolutely right. Just follow what Fourth Sister said. Second Sister is so strange, and what happened in the mansion recently, could it be that she really offended Tai Sui? We must go and pray to the Bodhisattva."
Likewise, Qu Qiuyan knew that the old lady was a devout Buddhist and would certainly not refuse such a thing, so she hurriedly said things that the old lady would like to hear.
After the two people persuaded her, the old lady became more and more moved. She looked at Qu Qiuyan who was kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Qu Moying who was leaning on her side. She reached out and hugged her. She patted her thin shoulders with great concern and said, "Girl Ying, grandma will support you. Don't be afraid. With grandma here, nothing will be a problem. Grandma will support you."
"Grandma, I know that the Buddhist teachings in Dabei Temple are good. It's a good opportunity for us to go and listen, worship, and even draw a fortune." Qu Moying said softly.
She was just saying this casually, but after she finished, her heart was moved. Asking for divination is really a good thing...
