It was dark and bright, and the boy guarding the door of the courtyard was dozing off.
A servant of the Wen family rushed over: "Something happened! Something happened!"
His roar startled the boy and he quickly stood up straight.
"The Wen family is in trouble! The third lady was burned to death! The warehouse of Fushou Hall was robbed!"
"What!" The boy guarding the door came to his senses completely and quickly took this man to Wen Guanbin and Liu's room.
Less than half a quarter of an hour later, there was a rapid knock on the door of Wen Qingzhu's room.
Wen Qingzhu was actually awake, but she let Lu Tao delay for a while.
After getting up, washing, dressing up, and a series of things, it was already half an hour later when we arrived at Liu's side.
"Seventh sister!" Wen Qinghe stood at the door and trotted over when he saw her coming.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and walked to the door of the house.
I happened to see Mrs. Liu walking out with the support of Grandma Du.
Liu's expression was very panicked, and Wen Qingzhu found it a little strange.
Something happened to Wen Qinglian, why was Mrs. Liu so nervous
Mrs. Wen was followed by a group of maids and servants. Mrs. Liu didn't even look at Wen Qingzhu, turned around and hurriedly left with everyone.
Wen Guanbin personally escorted Mr. Liu out of the courtyard, followed by the second lady, his wife, and Uncle Wen.
The first lady, his wife, and his wife, the fourth lady and his wife, watched them leave.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Wen Qingzhu asked Wen Qinghe quietly: "What else happened?"
"Grandma's warehouse was robbed. I heard that someone from Zimingtang came to deliver something and discovered it." Wen Qinghe's eyes were red and his hands were nervous.
Once this hurdle is passed, her sister will be out of trouble.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Wen Guanbin came back. He saw Wen Qingzhu in his eyes and ordered: "Xiao Qi, Xiao Ba, you two come in."
The first room and the fourth room looked over at the same time.
When he arrived at the house, Wen Guanbin's face was gloomy.
"Xiao Qi, why did Liuyuan catch on fire?"
Wen Qingzhu sneered: "Grandpa, how do you know that I know it?"
Wen Guanbin was looking at her, and Wen Qinghe next to him suddenly knelt down: "Grandpa, please let me go back to see my sister for the last time."
Hearing the cry, Wen Guanbin became more and more upset and angry: "Why are you crying! Such a big fire! I'm afraid there will only be a handful of ashes left! What's the use of going back, you little girl!"
Wen Qingzhu felt strange. Their original plan was that everyone in the second room must go back. '
But why was Wen Qinghe left alone now
"Grandpa, something happened to the third sister, and the eighth sister should go back." Wen Qingzhu looked up at Wen Guanbin.
But he saw his brows darken and his right hand holding the handle of the chair: "What? I still can't control where she goes?"
"That's not what Xiao Qi meant. It's just that the eighth sister should go back and see the third sister." Wen Qingzhu explained.
Wen Guanbin stared into her eyes and suddenly said: "I made an appointment with Mrs. Liu yesterday. Today you take Xiaoba to visit Mrs. Liu."
"Which Mr. Liu?" Wen Qingzhu frowned. Is this something Wen Qinglian couldn't take advantage of for the time being, so he decided to target Wen Qinghe
"You don't have to worry about this. Wen Dahai will take you there. Mr. Liu is an in-law of the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, so you should be polite."
Wen Guanbin said, looking at Wen Qingzhu and emphasizing: "Especially you. You are still just the seventh young lady of the Wen family. You have no identity. Remember to be polite!"
Wen Qingzhu pursed his lips and stared at Wen Guanbin, anger welling up in his heart.
Even if he sells his daughter for glory, he would not be so anxious!
"You guys go down and let Xiaoliu and Eleven come in." Wen Guanbin waved his hand and asked them to leave.
Wen Qingzhu left the house with Wen Qinghe, stopped at the door, and glanced at Wen Qingfang and Wen Qingxin.
"Grandpa lets you two go in."
Wen Qingxin originally wanted to thank him, but Wen Qingzhu had already turned around and left.
When he arrived in his room, Wen Qinghe couldn't sit still at all.
"Seventh sister, is sister A okay?"
Wen Qingzhu sighed and comforted her: "Sit down first. The most pressing issue now is not the third sister's matter, but your matter."
"Is it the Mrs. Liu that grandfather mentioned just now?" Wen Qinghe's heart tightened. Although she had expected it, she didn't expect that today would come so quickly.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, the third sister has already made arrangements. It won't help if grandma goes back. But I am curious, how could the warehouse of Fushou Hall be robbed? And Mrs. Liu, who is also related to the Li family, how can I see it? I can’t even be kind.”
"Jasmine!" Wen Qingzhu waved Jasmine forward and quietly gave her some instructions.
Jasmine took the order and went down.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qinghe: "A lot of things will happen today. Please don't leave with me first."
"Okay." Wen Qinghe was very scared. She felt that what Wen Qingzhu was referring to was not something that Mrs. Liu wanted to meet.
Just after breakfast, a maid came outside to communicate.
"Miss Seventh, Miss Eight, Mrs. Liu will send someone over to ask the two ladies to come over."
Wen Qingzhu frowned slightly, but she had to go.
"Ask the person who comes to wait, we will go out in a moment."
Wen Qingzhu said, got up and went to the inner room, sorting out various poisons, antidotes, and healing medicines.
At the end, she saw what King Shou's people gave her.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take it.
After a cup of tea, the two of them arrived at the courtyard of the Li family.
This villa is more than three times the size of the Wen family's. Looking at the people in the courtyard, there are not only servants from the Li family and Liu family, but also servants from the paddock.
Following the maid into the main room, Wen Qingzhu caught a glimpse of Mrs. Li in the main seat, and next to her was a lady who looked very similar to Mrs. Li.
After entering, Wen Qingzhu saluted Mrs. Li and then asked Mrs. Li: "Is this Mrs. Liu next to me?"
"Exactly, Mrs. Liu is my sister. Miss Qi doesn't need to be restrained, just treat her as if she were at home." Mrs. Li smiled brightly, not at all as flustered as yesterday.
Wen Qingzhu was wondering when Mrs. Liu looked at Wen Qinghe beside her and said, "Is this the eighth young lady of the Wen family?"
"I've met Mrs. Liu." Wen Qinghe was very nervous and bowed again.
She had never participated in such an event before, and the ladies she faced were almost all people who were previously out of reach.
"Come here, please give me a seat for Miss Seven and Miss Eight." Mrs. Liu raised her hand, looking very gentle and kind.
Wen Qingzhu didn't say much and led Wen Qinghe to sit down.
Mrs. Liu began to ask Wen Qinghe's preferences and family situation carefully.
Although it is meticulous, it does not exceed the rules.
After these words, Wen Qinghe actually relaxed a little.
Although Wen Qingzhu didn't dare to relax, she kept sitting quietly while paying attention to the movements around her.
She always felt like there was a vague gaze staring at her.
"Miss Wen!" Mrs. Li's voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly raised his head and said apologetically: "Mrs. Li, I'm sorry, something happened to the Wen family today."
"What happened to the Wen family?" Mrs. Li asked casually.
But Wen Qingzhu said seriously: "The Wen family's mansion was flooded last night. Something happened to the third sister. The eighth sister should have gone back to see her. After all, she is her biological sister."
"Wait last night?" It was Mrs. Liu who asked this question.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, I heard that the situation is very serious. Third sister is just afraid..."
After a pause, Wen Qingzhu simply stood up and knelt down, followed closely by Wen Qinghe.
"Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Li, please let the eighth sister go back to see the third sister for the last time!" Wen Qingzhu's voice suddenly trembled.
Wen Qinghe couldn't help but cry. She felt extremely sad just because she might not be able to see her sister openly in the future.
At the same time, the eldest princess's voice came from the door.
"What's going on? Isn't everything settled yesterday?"
Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu stood up quickly and came in respectfully to Jiang Wuyang and Liang Pingshu.
When passing by Wen Qingzhu, Liang Pingshu paused deliberately.
Wen Qingzhu understood and finally brought in his savior.
King Shou is going to take action today, and maybe the survivors of the Yue Kingdom will also take action.
Jiang Yuancheng still wants to take advantage of the chaos to make meritorious deeds, but Wen Qingzhu cannot be trapped here.
After Jiang Wuyang sat down, Wen Qingzhu told me what just happened again.
At the end, she specially emphasized: "I know that my grandfather and Mrs. Liu have made an agreement a long time ago. It is just a matter of life and death. The eighth sister only has this chance. Please ask Mrs. Liu to let the eighth sister go back."
At this moment, Mrs. Liu's face looked extremely ugly.
Wen Qingzhu's words were all because of her, and Wen Qinghe was unable to see her biological sister for the last time.
Mrs. Liu said bravely: "Since there is something wrong, you should just say it directly. We are all reasonable people."
"But grandpa said that no matter what happens, the eighth sister must come to see Mrs. Liu. As juniors, we cannot disobey the orders of the elders. Please be kind to Mrs. Liu and let the eighth sister go."
Wen Qingzhu's voice was heart-wrenching, and Wen Qinghe couldn't help but shed tears.
No matter how you look at this scene, it looks like Madam Liu is holding them back and not letting them go.
Mrs. Li frowned deeply and looked at the eldest princess from the corner of her eye. She always felt that the eldest princess's appearance here must be because of Wen Qingzhu.
"In this case, why don't I ask a favor for Miss Wenba and let her go back and check on my sister first?" When Jiang Wuyang saw this, he didn't understand the twists and turns here.
The Wen family wanted to join the Liu family, so they sent Wen Qinghe over.
Even if something happened to her own sister, she was escorted here.
It was said that Wen Guanbin was following the trend, but it was actually Mrs. Liu who expressed her intention to marry the Wen family.
Mrs. Liu was so angry that her face turned purple and she felt extremely aggrieved.
It was obviously someone from the Wen family who did this, but in the end she was blamed.
Mrs. Liu took two deep breaths and held back her anger: "Don't worry, I will explain to Mr. Wen."
"Thank you, Mrs. Liu!" Wen Qinghe knelt down deeply and kowtowed three times to Mrs. Liu seriously.
Facing such a great gift, Mrs. Liu became even more angry and simply turned away.
Why is the Wen family so weird!
Wen Qingzhu stood up, asked the eldest princess and others to leave, and then left with Wen Qinghe.
Jiang Wuyang in the room turned his head at the same time, looked at Mrs. Li and said, "I am here today. In fact, His Highness the Crown Prince invited me to come."
Mrs. Li's heart trembled. He quickly straightened his expression: "Eldest Princess, please speak."
Jiang Wuyang said in embarrassment: "It's still the same thing yesterday."
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief and tried her best to smile: "The concubine has already made the decision about what happened yesterday, and our Li family is also willing to compensate the Xia family. This is what Mrs. Xia agreed to yesterday."
…
When Wen Qingzhu heard this last sentence, the corner of his mouth curled up.
How could the Xia family be willing to accept this loss
After leaving the Li family's courtyard, Wen Qingzhu took her back to the Wen family's courtyard.
The boy at the door was surprised: "Miss Seventh, why are you back so soon? Did His Highness the Fifth Prince come in person just now?"
"Fifth Highness? What did he say?" Wen Qingzhu felt that something was not going well.
The boy guarding the door shook his head: "His Highness didn't say anything, but after His Highness left, Lord Fu also came. This is a letter for you."
Wen Qingzhu took it and saw that it was Fu Lie's handwriting, and nodded: "Thank you very much."
