Wei Ting was punished to reflect behind closed doors for a month.
There were eunuchs staying in the residence to supervise.
At night, Wei Ting did not return to Pear Blossom Lane.
Although he did not return, he had to bring the things.
The moon was dark and windy.
Su Xiaoxiao had just coaxed the three little ones to sleep and planned to rest.
Suddenly, a shadow flashed over from the sky and arrived in front of Su Xiaoxiao’s window like a ghost. He knocked on the window lattice.
Su Xiaoxiao opened the window strangely. The figure had long disappeared, and there was a letter on the windowsill.
She opened it and took a look.
It was a thick banknote of 3,000 taels of silver and a note that cherished words like gold: Home use. Going out for a month. Don’t miss me.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled.
She looked at the silent and windless courtyard and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Is it Little Black?”
“It’s not.”
A man’s voice replied.
“Oh.” Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Yu Niang wrote a letter to someone called Little Black. Since you’re not, forget it.”
The man in black flashed to the window.
At the Qin family.
Qin Yanran returned to the west courtyard of the Protectorate.
She had an extremely infuriating day.
First, she was mocked by the young lady from the commoners, then there were three junior uncles for no reason. The junior uncles were even that woman’s sons…
The three little fellows played in the courtyard, making her unable to calm down to practice the piano. She played a few wrongly.
Master Zhang’s dissatisfaction with her was almost written all over his face.
But could she be blamed?
Who wouldn’t be disturbed by the children’s noise?
But then again, Master Zhang was 30 years old this year. The man called Ling Yun looked to be in his early twenties at most. How could he be Master Zhang’s master?
Zhang Qinshi was the most famous zither master in the capital. No one knew where his master came from. They only knew that back then, he had performed “Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix” on the pleasure boat and was famous in the capital.
From then on, many people came because of hos reputation. They almost broke through the threshold of Master Zhang.
Some asked him for music, and some wanted to learn from him.
Master Zhang did not take in disciples easily. Including herself, there were no more than five, and she was the only female disciple.
Who was his master?
“It’s called Ling Yun, but I’ve never heard of this name…”
Qin Yanran couldn’t figure it out.
Qin Yanran went to Qin Jiang’s courtyard to rest in the morning. This was a habit she had always insisted on for so many years.
At the courtyard door, she bumped into the exasperated Qin Yun.
Qin Yun was clearly here for Qin Jiang’s courtyard, but he was not here to pay his respects. It was more like he wanted to complain.
“Ah Yun,” Qin Yanran called out to him.
Qin Yun called her sister gloomily.
Qin Yanran asked, “Your expression is very ugly. Did something happen?”
Qin Yun complained, “Why are you still talking! It’s all your fault for making me go to the Imperial College!”
Qin Yanran was slightly embarrassed. “I… I’m sorry. I was too busy to pick you up.”
Qin Yun was not here for this. He had long forgotten that Qin Yanran was coming to pick him up.
He was angry because his friends in the past suddenly stopped currying favor with him. Then, he saw that guy called Su Ergou was actually in his class next door!
Damn it!
Qin Yanran advised earnestly, “Father might be very busy recently. Don’t disturb him with such trivial matters.”
Qin Yun snorted. “How is my matter a small matter? Could it be that only your matter is a big deal?” Qin Yanran frowned and said, “I didn’t say that.”
“But that’s what you mean!”
“Ah Yun!”
Qin Yun ignored her and rushed in, but he was stopped by Xu Qing. “Master is resting. Young Master and Miss can come back tomorrow.” Qin Yun said sternly, “I want to see Father. Get out of the way!”
Xu Qing did not move.
Qin Yun mocked, “You’re just a guard dog! How dare you disobey my orders!
Get lost! I want to see Father!”
A cold glint flashed across Xu Qing’s eyes.
“Ah Yun!” Qin Yanran tugged at Qin Yun. “Stop fooling around!”
Qin Yun broke free from her hand. The huge force made Qin Yanran stagger back.
Xu Qing grabbed her arm to prevent her from falling to the ground in a sorry state.
When she stabilized herself, Xu Qing retracted his hand expressionlessly.
Qin Yanran touched her arm and looked at Qin Yun with a complicated expression. She said sternly, “Go back!”
Qin Yun looked at his angry sister and then at the cold Xu Qing. He gritted his teeth and turned to leave!
Qin Yanran sighed with a headache and turned to look at Xu Qing. She asked worriedly, “How are my father’s injuries?”
Xu Qing glanced at Qin Yanran.
His gaze was different from ordinary guards, inadvertently emitting endless killing intent.
Qin Yanran felt her heart tremble, but she stubbornly did not avoid his murderous gaze.
Xu Qing looked away and said calmly, “The imperial physician has taken a look and asked Old Master to recuperate.”
In the end, he did not mention that he had vomited blood from being angered by Wei Ting in the imperial study.
“Has His Majesty dealt with Lord Wei?”
“He dealt with him; he had to reflect on his mistakes for a month.”
Qin Yanran was in disbelief.
Did Wei Ting only have to reflect on himself after injuring her father to this extent?
Xu Qing said, “Miss, you know that you’ll enter the palace tomorrow to take part in the selection to study with the princess, right?”
Qin Yanran nodded. “People from the palace came.”
Xu Qing said calmly, “Miss, you should understand that this is your only chance to marry the Third Prince, right?”
Qin Yanran was stunned. ‘You mean… it’s fake to read to the princess and it’s true to choose a consort for the Third Prince?”
Xu Qing did not answer her question directly. Instead, he said, “I heard that the young lady from the commoners also obtained a spot to enter the palace.”
Qin Yanran said in shock, “Didn’t… didn’t she already get married in the countryside?”
Xu Qing said, “It’s not like there’s no such precedent in our dynasty. I heard that not long after Miss was born, an enlightened expert did a reading for the Protectorate. The Eldest Miss of the Protectorate is born with the fate of a phoenix and would be a mother to the world. Is the Eldest Miss mentioned by that expert Miss or the real daughter of the eldest branch?”
Qin Yanran’s pupils dilated!
It was dawn.
Su Xiaoxiao got up to make snacks.
Su Cheng did not return yesterday. He was too tired from practicing riding and archery and fell asleep in the courtyard of the horse farm.
Qin Canglan sent a guard to give Su Xiaoxiao a message, telling her not to worry.
Wei Ting was not around, Father Su was not around, and Su Ergou wanted to go to school. She had to let him sleep well.
This time, there was really no one to help.
However, a hundred snacks were not much. They were all out of the pot in about two hours.
She called Su Ergou and the three little ones.
Su Ergou rubbed his eyes and looked at the bright sky outside the window. Smelling the fragrance from the kitchen, he muttered, “Sister, are you done with the snacks? Why didn’t you call me?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “How many snacks are there?”
Su Ergou frowned and said, “No! You have to call me next time. Otherwise, I won’t take on any business!”
How could he let his sister be busy alone? Was he still the man of the family?
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her fourteen-year-old brother and smiled. “Alright, I’ll call you next time.”
Su Ergou was worried and filled the water tank. After chopping the firewood and feeding the foal, he went to the table for breakfast..
