Yun Xuan Zhi saw that Yun Ruo Xue quieted down and also saw that blood is oozing from Yun Ruo Xue’s clothes, he gave a meaningful glance to the old maid with the whip to let her stop. He ordered some people to carry Yun Ruo Xue back to Feng He yuan.
“Mother, do you feel better now? Does son need to ask a doctor to come give a diagnosis?”
After Yun Xuan Zhi vented out the anger in his heart, he turned around to concern about old madam.
When old madam saw the injuries on Yun Ruo Xue’s back, she couldn’t help but feel some pride. Just now, she just wanted to act for Yun Xuan Zhi. Now seeing him ask, she eased her complexion and said somewhat weakly: “It’s not some big deal, don’t need to waste so much effort on it. I’m thinking of resting for two days and then take these three girls to Pu Guo An to worship, lest we don’t know if our xiangfu has collided with the gods.”
Yun Xuan Zhi saw that old madam’s body isn’t well, but she is still thinking about the safety of the family, his heart felt touched. It’s just thinking about that Pu Guo An is a distance away; a round trip will need most of the day. He is afraid that it’ll be too much on old madam’s body, so he opened his mouth to persuade: “Old madam’s body isn’t well. It’s better to not be constantly on move. Otherwise, it’ll be son’s fault!”
But old madam’s heart has other plans, how can she be persuaded by a few words from Yun Xuan Zhi? Her expression turned serious and she said sternly: “This is in order to show our sincerity! Buddha has preference for sincerity. You don’t need to persuade anymore. You can better let people prepare it. This time I’m taking three unmarried ladies. Nothing wrong can happen on the road.”
Yun Xuan Zhi saw that old madam is so insistent, he can only nod. He let some people call guard Liu to his study. He personally escorted old madam back to Bai Shun Tang before he went to the study.
Yun Qian Meng worked hard for a whole day. After she and Yun Yan sent old madam away, they returned to their own yuan.
Shui er and Bing er whom was keeping watch of Qi Luo yuan have already prepared warm water for Yun Qian Meng to bath in. Originally Yun Qian Meng wanted to let Mu Chun retreat, but Mu Chun used the excuse that Yun Qian Meng’s finger is injured. She stayed till she helped Yun Qian Meng take off the coat, before she agreed to go to rest.
“Aiya!”
After taking off the coat, Yun Qian Meng went behind the screen, she heard Mu Chun’s exclamation. She stopped her actions and asked: “What is the matter?”
“Nubi panicked. It’s just that the sleeves of the coat are stuck with blood. Fortunately, it’s on the inside, otherwise if outsiders have found out, I don’t know what they will say again.”
Mu Chun put the coat together with the dress. Then she bowed at Yun Qian Meng and quietly walked out of the inner chamber.
Mu Chun’s words reminded Yun Qian Meng. Presumably Chu Fei Yang found out about the injury by looking at the blood stains on the sleeves. After all, that time in Lao Tai Jun’s inner chamber, she was the nearest of Chu wang and Chu Fei Yang.
Although this is something small, but it also shows Chu Fei Yang is observant and he is certainly a cautious person. Otherwise, he won’t have entered that Hai Tian junzhu’s eyes. It’s just that what really is puzzling Yun Qian Meng is that today when she was tricked by Feng er, why did Chu Fei Yang and Jiang Mu Chen appear at the same time? Especially when Chen wang saw that drunken Yuan Qing Zhou wanted to pounce on her. That expression was really boiling. He immediately knocked that stunned Yuan Qing Zhou. He grabbed Yuan Qing Zhou’s collar and disappeared from the backyard.
And Chu Fei Yang is making it more so that people are unable to figure him out. He obviously left, why did he appear in front of her again? And he swiftly knocked out Feng er who was about to shout and then let people take away Feng er.
Seeing those unpredictable actions of the two man, Yun Qian Meng is glad that she didn’t take actions when Feng er wanted to pull her behind the rockery. Otherwise if these two observant people saw, it will certainly arouse suspicion. Thinking about it, that Su fu’s maid having an affair with some body, must have been done by Chu Fei Yang.
After all, at that time Chen wang’s attention has been taken away by Yuan Qing Zhou. Presumably, in order to avoid this eldest young master of Han Guo Gong Fu making some scandal, he will certainly personally take him (YQZ) back to Han Guo Gong Fu.
But when she turned around and wanted to leave, unexpectedly Chu Fei Yang gently asked from behind: “Why did you suddenly change?”
This one sentence almost messed up her pace, making her almost forget her manners in front of Chu Fei Yang. She felt a deep gaze on her, making it that she couldn’t stay any longer in front of that man. (She wanted to take actions when Feng er slipped and was about to pull her down, but she retreated at the last moment when she saw them. Chu Fei Yang probably saw)
Watching the heat rise from the tube, Yun Qian Meng’s right hand turned into a fist. She gently hit the warm water. In the always calm eyes flashed chagrin. Those stubborn lips went slightly up. The eyebrows are knitted together. In her heart, she couldn’t help but scold herself for being a coward.
That was just a light sentence from Chu Fei Yang, why does she need to take it so seriously? Can it be that she is afraid that Chu Fei Yang will be able to point out that she is some sort of monster that can travel through time and be tied on the execution ground, burning to death?
A splash of water hit Yun Qian Meng’s cheek. The cool touch let her restore her calmness. But she still couldn’t help to remind herself once again to be more cautious in front of Chu Fei Yang in the future. A man where doubt will arise after just seeing a few expressions of a person, is really a scary person.
At Feng He yuan, Su Qing looked at the almost fainted Yun Ruo Xue, who is being carried in by some people. Her heart felt really painful. She immediately ordered Pan Lan to go bring the doctor. She and Wang mama are the only ones left in the inner chamber. The two people carefully took of Yun Ruo Xue’s outer skirt. When she saw Yun Ruo Xue’s back full of traces of the rattan whip, Su Qing’s tears fell down. She personally changed Yun Ruo Xue and fed her medicine.
But when Yun Ruo Xue opened her eyes, they were extremely cold. It made Su Qing bow her head in shame.
“Second Miss, how do you feel? Furen has been sitting here waiting for you for half a day. You finally woke up.”
Wang mama saw that Yun Ruo Xue is awake, she immediately asked with concern.
But Yun Ruo Xue didn’t even look at her. She continued to stare at Su Qing. After a long time, she said with a hoarse voice: “I want to marry to Chu Fei Yang!”

Chapter 65: Coincidentally Meeting an Old Friend at Pu Guo An | Chu Wang Fei
Hearing that, Su Qing’s eyes couldn’t help but widen. She stared with some disbelieve at Yun Ruo Xue. She couldn’t understand why after going to Fu Guo Gong Fu her daughter will say such words.
Yun Ruo Xue saw that Su Qing is only staring at her without saying anything, she got really angry. She disregarded the pain in her back and shouted: “Such a heartless yiniang, ah, watching her daughter almost being beaten to death, she didn’t even show her face ! Now I just want you to go talk to daddy about this, but you are still hesitating like this! Really let people’s heart turn cold!”
The moment those heartless words of Yun Ruo Xue left her mouth, pain flashed through Su Qing’s heart. She never dreamed that the hardship she put up for raising her daughter and treating her like a treasure, she will actually call her ‘yiniang’.
And Yun Ruo Xue said that just because she didn’t immediately reply her. How can Yun Ruo Xue forget that to let her attend the birthday, she gave back all Qu Ruo Li’s dowry to Yun Qian Meng?
Although Su Qing is uncomfortable because of Yun Ruo Xue’s words, but looking at Yun Ruo Xue’s scarred back, she couldn�
��t help from blaming herself. If she had rushed to the shrine, perhaps Yun Ruo Xue wouldn’t have to suffer this physical pain. Those old maids whom carried out the punishment don’t know their places. She doesn’t know if Yun Ruo Xue has injured the bones. And a girl scaring the skin, made Su Qing’s heart feel really painful. She is afraid that this injury will only fade away after few months of good rest.
“It appears that yiniang is refusing to talk to daddy about this matter.”
After Su Qing didn’t express anything for a long time, Yun Ruo Xue got anxious. She thought that this mother who loved her is not standing by her side anymore, she sneered. Her eyes were full of hate.
Su Qing saw her like that and thought about Chu Fei Yang’s high position and neutrality, her heart is also extremely satisfied with her future son in law. She smiled and appeased Yun Ruo Xue: “Xue er, this matter, we should carefully plan it. Your body is injured right now. Even if we propose marriage to Chu Fei Yang, you will still have to wait till the injuries are completely healed before the marriage take place.”
Yun Ruo Xue listened to Su Qing’s answer and knows that she (SQ) apparently accepted her requirements. Yun Ruo Xue’s face turned a lot gentler. Now did she feel the pain in her back. She grasped Su Qing’s hands and couldn’t help her tears from falling: “Mother, all of this is because of that bitch Yun Qian Meng! If it wasn’t because of her words, how would old madam let daddy use the home punishment? Not mentioning that today she let biaojie fall into water. She went so far as to let me lose all face. This hatred, even if a knife is pierced through that bitch’s life, will not lessen the hate in my heart!”
Su Qing has already heard everything from Pan Lan. Now seeing her daughter full of hatred that her body is trembling, Su Qing’s got really angry. Her eyes narrowed slightly and emitted a vicious light. Then she called Wang mama over: “Go to the small storeroom and take the edible bird nest out. Personally sent it to Su fu to let biaojie nourish her body.”
Wang mama accepted the order, immediately went out of the room and went to the small storehouse of the concubine. Soon her hands are holding the finest quality of edible bird nest. She let Su Qing have a look and then went to Su fu with a maid.
By this time, the doctor has arrived to Feng He yuan. Su Qing let Pan Lan put down the curtain. She put a silk handkerchief above Yun Ruo Xue’s outstretched white wrist to let the doctor feel the pulse.
“How is she?”
She saw that the doctor’s expression somber up. Su Qing got anxious and asked with a worried voice.
She saw the doctor retrieve his hand and saw him glancing at the curtain. Then he said in a soft voice: “Miss is seriously injured and the heart is full of anger. This is very disadvantageous for the healing of the wound. Asking furen to persuade Miss about the principle of a calm heart heal the wounds. Caomin1 will prescribe a healing medicine for Miss together with a cream. As long as the wind doesn’t tamper with it, Miss’s wounds will certainly heal.
After Su Qing heard the word ‘heal’, her heart finally calmed down. Her expression immediately turned better. Then she asked about what they need to be careful about. Only after that did she let Pan Lan lead the doctor out. She asked gently: “Xue er, did you heard the doctor’s orders? In the next days, you can’t get angry anymore. Rest well here. I will discuss with your jiujiu about Yun Qian Meng.”
But at this time, how can Yun Ruo Xue’s heart be at peace?
Normally, she paid very much attention to her daily maintenance. Her translucent skin has become like this because of Yun Qian Meng’s trap. In her heart has long been an anger that she can’t let out. To let her swallow this anger will be more difficult that mounting the heavens.
She tightly grabbed the quilt in front of her. Her eyes is fixed on the outside. Hate filled her yes. Her head begin shaking. After quite a while did say through gritted teeth: “I must marry Chu Fei Yang! Only then can I easily kill Yun Qian Meng. I want her to have a violent death! I must pay her back the shame that I suffered today hundred and thousands times back to her!”
Su Qing saw that her daughter has been insulted like this by Yun Qian Meng, her heart is also full of hate. She immediately sat on the bed side. With gentle movements she caressed the wounded Yun Ruo Xue. She said angrily: “My child, don’t worry. Mother won’t let you be insulted in vain. Mother will certainly let you marry Chu Fei Yang. Then let alone Yun Qian Meng, even that old one who still isn’t dead in Bai Shun Tang will have to bend their knees and curry favor from us.”
Hearing Su Qing’s guarantee, Yun Ruo Xue’s mood finally calmed down a little. She turned her head with difficulty. With eyes full of tears and grievance she looked at Su Qing and said: “Mother, can you really make daddy agree?”
Su Qing saw that Yun Ruo Xue’s emotions finally calmed down. She lovingly brushed the hair on Yun Ruo Xue’s face. She smiled: “When has mother told a lie? Moreover, although Chu xiang isn’t from Xi Chu’s royalty, but his status will let many royalties be far inferior. Even more, he is the ideal candidate as a husband to all ladies in Xi Chu. Your dad status is equal to his. Your two jiujius are officials in court together with him. With such identity, what more can he be picky off?”
Moreover, although Su Qing’s is concerned about the niece who nearly drowned, but after all a niece is not a daughter. Su Qian Yue is considered an elegant beauty. This time, she became a shame in front of everyone. To go in the palace and become a concubine will be hopeless. She is afraid that even those young masters from good family will be reluctant to marry such a laughingstock wife. What will let Su Qian Yue unable to stand up again, is the fact that her maid is caught in a tryst with somebody. And this maid is her personal maid who has served Su Qian Yue since little. Even if this matter has nothing to do with Su Qian Yue, but others might not think so. What kind of master will have what kind of maid. She fears that everyone will have prejudice against Su Qian Yue. You can say that Su Qing is selfish and even can say that she is ruthless. Su Qian Yue will no longer be able to marry nobilities or royalties. This will let Yun Ruo Xue has a competitor less and will also let Yun Ruo Xue be a step closer at marrying into Chu wangfu.
Yun Ruo Xue saw that Su Qing is saying that with such ease, a smile gradually showed on her face. In her head appeared Chu Fei Yang’s handsome and charming figure. For a time, she blushed. She told Su Qing all the encounters that happened with Chu Fei Yang today.
Originally, Su Qing was listening with a smile about Yun Ruo Xue’s and Chu Fei Yang’s encounter, but when she heard that Yun Qian Meng also appeared in front of Chu Fei Yang, her heart suddenly tightened. The smile disappeared and she sternly said: “Tell mother, when Chu xiang saw Yun Qian Meng, was there anything strange about him?”
At this time, Su Qian Yue is of course not Yun Ruo Xue’s opponent, but Yun Qian Meng is a powerful opponent. Seeing how Yun Qian Meng recently dealt with her and dealt with Su family, she can see that this woman is conniving. And she is extremely good at covering herself. Plus Yun Qian Meng’s identity is a cut above that of Yun Ruo Xue. This made Su Qing unable not to guard against.
At this time, Yun Ruo Xue is still indulging in the beautiful memories of her and Chu Fei Yang’s first meeting. Hearing Su Qing’s reminder, she remembered that Chu Fei Yang spoke for Yun Qian Meng. For a time, the smile on her lips faded. Her heart became restless. She grabbed Su Qing and told her everything.
After listening to it, Su Qing’s heart didn’t feel well. That Chu Fei Yang never bothered with matters of other people. At court he has always been someone who did things alone. And today because of such small matter, he stand up for Yun Qian Meng. This is really suspicious.
Su Qing was about to ask Yun Ruo Xue, when she saw Wang mama came back with the edible bird next that she sent to Su fu.
“How did this happen?”
Su Qing’s brows wrinkled slightly. Her eyes flashed unhappiness.
Wang mama passed the edible bird next to Pan Lan to let her return it to the small warehouse. Then did
she said with a bad expression: “This old one hasn’t even entered cousin Miss’s yuan when I was blocked by Su old madam’s Li mama. She said that old madam ordered that cousin Miss has fell into water and will not see anybody. This old one said that this is furen’s little gift and has especially asked this old one to send it over. But that Li mama didn’t even bat an eye and stared with her nose at that edible bird nest. Then she snapped that Su fu is too low to receive things from xiangfu and then put this old one out. I saw jiu laoye and furen stand at the window watching the situation, but they didn’t come out to stop Li mama.”
After hearing Wang mama’s explanation, Su Qing’s face turned red. She grabbed the cup of tea, threw it towards the ground and cursed: “Dogs who threat based on power! They actually put the responsibility of Su Qian Yue falling into water on my head? My da sao2 is a no brainer. Why doesn’t she think about whom she dependent on to become the wife of the minister of justice? At this time, she is actually angry at me because of Qian Yue? If I say that if it wasn’t because they raised Su Qian Yue into someone who doesn’t have any one in her eyes and who looks down on others, this thing will never has happened. All of this has been caused by that haughty temper of Su Qian Yue. She grouped with that stepmother of mine to deal with me?”
Wang mama saw that Su Qing is furious and angry, immediately went forward to ease her anger. She couldn’t help but blame herself: “This is this old one’s fault. I just suffered a little grievance and came to trouble furen. Furen need to remember the doctor’s orders. You must not get angry again, otherwise it won’t be good for the child. Why should we care about those bitches? As long as jiu laoye is standing at our side, Su fu will be furen’s strong backing.”
Su Qing was already holding the anger that she suffered from Yun Qian Meng and old madam in these past days. After the she vented out today, her anger went away a lot. She raised her hand to let Wang mama stop fanning her. She thought carefully about Wang mama’s words. At this moment she happened to see Pan Lan come back in the chamber. She waved to let Pan Lan come in front of her. She said: “Even though Pan Lan is only a year older than my Xue er, I this furen need to set this in my heart and search for a good marriage for you.”
