“He…how could he…how could he…” Yu pushed Hai Lan away and burst into tears. She scratched the quilt vigorously with both hands twice. Several threads of the brocade on the quilt were pulled out and hung messily on Yu’s nails. She looked more and more crazy.
"Madam... Madam... please stop making trouble. The Second Master hasn't gone far... He will hear it..." Hai Lan pleaded with Yu in a low voice, her body trembling.
"You know what I'm going to say, right? You know about that woman, right? I thought I had won his heart, but it turns out that neither I nor Yue had won his heart. Both of us... were doing it for that woman..." Yu couldn't help but scream.
Hai Lan reached out and covered Yu's mouth again, pleading with a pale face, "Madam, even if you don't do it for yourself, you have to do it for the Second Young Master and the Third Young Lady. They can't be implicated by you."
This sentence calmed Yu down. His face turned pale and ugly. He squeezed Hailan's hand hard and lowered his head. Under the light, the room suddenly became quiet, giving people a weird feeling.
After a long while, Yu nodded woodenly: "Yes, I can't bring disaster to Yan'er and the others. I can't afford to offend that woman."
"Madam, you..." Hai Lan looked at Yu cautiously, fearing that she would go crazy again. In recent times, Yu's emotions came and went very quickly, and sometimes they were so violent that she couldn't control herself, as if she had really gone insane.
"Hai Lan, don't worry. I won't fight against... with an egg. But I can't keep that bitch Qu Moying. She's a disaster." Yu gritted her teeth and said.
Hai Lan didn't dare to respond. The current Fourth Young Lady was no longer the Fourth Young Lady who allowed themselves to be manipulated by them.
"Hai Lan, send a message to my brother and ask him to...find a way to pass on the message that...the blind man is Minister Liu's daughter."
Yu let out a long breath, the sound sounding eerie in the empty room.
"Madam, you... want to..." Hai Lan subconsciously looked behind her. Although the door was open, it was silent, which showed that the second master had already left.
"That blind girl cannot be kept. Although the master said he doesn't believe it, I don't believe he really trusts Yue. There is a note as evidence of Yue's secret meeting with Minister Liu, which must be true. And who can tell for sure? Someone like Minister Liu actually took the initiative to send a note, which shows that he really has feelings for Yue."
Yu regained her clarity of mind at this rare time, and Hai Lan nodded repeatedly.
"That blind girl cannot be kept." Yu said this at last.
"Yes, I know. I will pass the method to my uncle, but now the note is gone, and I'm afraid it won't be so convincing." Hai Lan said hesitantly.
"No problem, just spread the word." Yu's eyes were a bit cold under the light, and suddenly she laughed, "If you don't remove the roots, you will always get into trouble. I thought it was no big deal to save this little blind man's life, but I didn't expect that this little blind man was so tough and has forced me to this extent."
She took something out from under the pillow and put it in Aunt Hailan's hand. "Give this to my eldest brother. He will definitely know what to do!"
"Madam..." Hailan's voice was shaking.
"Go ahead, take advantage of this chaos." Yu closed her eyes and fell backwards, "Find someone to spread the news and send the things out as well."
"At this time, there are only three
Only those close to the young lady can pass the message to the uncle." Hailan said in embarrassment.
"Then let the Third Miss spread the message and send the things out as well." Yu smiled, and her two rows of teeth gleamed coldly under the lamp.
Seeing her like this, Hai Lan knew that Yu had made up her mind. She didn't dare to say anything else. She put the thing in her arms, then carefully retreated. After standing at the door for a while, she turned and went to the back door.
The back door was opened by Qu Qiuyan today. She didn't close it when she left. It opened with a slight push.
Hailan looked around but didn't see anyone. It was pitch black outside and she could only vaguely see some trees standing there.
She did not dare to carry the lantern for fear of being discovered. Fortunately, Hailan was familiar with this section of the road. After figuring out the direction, she stumbled out. But after walking a few steps, at a corner, she perhaps tripped over something or kicked something, but her legs went weak and she fell heavily to the ground.
When I fell, I used my hands and feet, but I didn't grab anything. I just felt like I was hit by something again, and my body rolled to the side.
Not knowing what she had bumped into, Hai Lan cursed under her breath as she got up.
She stood up straight using her hands and feet, looked around, didn't see anything, felt that it was getting late, and didn't dare to delay, so she got up and went to Furong Courtyard in a hurry.
The third young lady just came back, so she should not be asleep yet.
When they arrived at Furong Courtyard, they found that the gate was closed. Aunt Hailan looked around and went forward to knock on the door.
After knocking for a long time, I heard an impatient voice from a woman, "It's already so late, who is still knocking on the door? Don't you even check the time?"
Then there was the sound of someone walking towards them in slippers.
The side door opened, and an old woman came in, yawning while tying her clothes. She opened the door and saw Aunt Hailan in the light of a ray of light. She was stunned for a moment and did not recognize Aunt Hailan for a moment.
In the past, whenever Aunt Hailan came here, she would bring a few maids and old women with her. Her aura was unmatched by any other servant in the mansion. How could she be in such a miserable state on this day? Not only was her hair disheveled, but her body was also dirty, as if she had rolled on the ground.
The most important thing is that Aunt Hailan has not been having a good time recently. She is thin and pale, and she doesn't look very energetic. Every day she has to accompany Yu, who sometimes seems a little unwell. There is no one else around to help her. It would be strange if Aunt Hailan could be in good spirits.
"Hai...Aunt Hailan?" The old woman looked at her a few more times before she realized that the person in front of her was Aunt Hailan, and asked in surprise.
"Is the third young lady asleep?" Aunt Hailan glared at the old woman unhappily.
"No, I just came back. The lights in the main room are still on." The old woman smiled hurriedly, stepped back, and extended her hand forward, "Aunt Hailan, please come in, please come in. I will report to the Third Miss for you."
"Go quickly!" Aunt Hailan glared at her.
The gatekeeper did not dare to delay and hurried in to report. When she reached the door of the main house, she realized that the current Aunt Hailan was no longer the same Aunt Hailan as before, and she was afraid of what she might do.
Although she thought so, this matter was still related to the Third Young Miss, so the old woman did not dare to delay the matter. She went to the door and said to the main room behind the door curtain: "Young Miss, Aunt Hailan is here and said she has something important to see you about."
Qu Qiuyan had indeed not slept yet. She was sitting under the lamp thinking about something. When she heard the noise outside, she frowned and nodded to Qingju.
Qingju came out.
"Where are the people?"
"It's right behind me." The old woman smiled and pointed behind her.
Qingju then saw Aunt Hailan in the shadows. When she saw how miserable she looked, her heart skipped a beat. The young lady had just returned from the lady's place, and already Aunt Hailan was here, and she looked so miserable. Could something have happened
"Aunt Hailan, please come in with me." Qingju greeted hurriedly and waved her hand, asking the old woman to leave.
Aunt Hiram stepped out from the shadows and into the house.
In the main room, Qu Qiuyan frowned even more when she saw Aunt Hailan's look. This Aunt Hailan had taught her many rules before, but now she seemed to have no rules at all.
"Your servant greets the Third Miss." Hai Lan stepped forward and bowed. She didn't have a mirror, so she couldn't see how disheveled she looked. She thought she had cleaned herself up after the fall.
"What's the matter?" Qu Qiuyan raised her eyes and asked.
"Madam has something to tell Uncle, and wants Third Miss to pass it on, and also to..." Hai Lan reached into her sleeve, ready to take out the thing Yu gave her, but her hand was stuck in the sleeve, and there was nothing inside. Her face suddenly changed, and she was speechless and couldn't continue.
"What's the matter?" Qu Qiuyan stared at Aunt Hailan's hand and asked coldly.
Hai Lan rummaged around in it for a few times, then slowly pulled it out: "Just now, Madam gave me a handkerchief, saying that it belonged to the previous Madam, but when I left, I left in a hurry and forgot to take it with me. I will bring it to you next time I go out."
"Handkerchief?" Qu Qiuyan asked suspiciously.
"Yes, it was the handkerchief, but it's not important. It's just to increase the credibility of the previous words. Madam meant to ask Miss Three to pass on a message to Uncle, saying that Miss Four is Minister Liu's daughter, not the master's biological daughter. Just now, the master came over and tore up Miss Three's note."
Of course Aunt Hailan didn't dare let Qu Qiuyan know that she had lost an important thing, so she vaguely changed the subject.
"Torn?" Qu Qiuyan sat up straighter and paid attention to this point.
"Yes, the master was very angry and tore it up, but the second master didn't say anything. He just said that the fourth lady was his biological daughter." Aunt Hailan said.
"Even after all this, my father still admits that Qu Moying is his daughter. He is really open-minded. But even if my father is willing to acknowledge her, I don't want to acknowledge her." Qu Qiuyan sneered.
If Qu Moying's identity is in doubt, her identity will be confirmed. Even if she enters Prince Jing's Mansion as a concubine now, she will still have unlimited opportunities in the future. She is clear about Prince Jing's feelings for her.
It was only because of Qu Moying that I was forced to enter Prince Jing's Mansion as a concubine, but so what? Prince Jing has himself in his heart, and he had always wanted to improve his position before. It was all because of that bitch Qu Moying that caused me to become like this. This time I had to pretend to be sick and beg Prince Jing for help, which required a reasonable reason. I had no choice but to enter Prince Jing's Mansion as a concubine.
She was sure that His Royal Highness Prince Jing would not let himself be so wronged, and there would be plenty of opportunities for him to advance in his position in the future.
But Qu Moying wished she could cut her into pieces!
If it wasn't for Qu Moying, would she have ended up like this? Even if she wasn't the principal wife, a formal concubine with a rank would be easy to obtain.
There was a flash of cruelty in his eyes: "What else did mother say?"
