Chapter 275 – Xiao And Ji Youran Plotted Together

Chapter 275 Xiao and Ji Youran Plotted Together

Besides not being inferior to others, she also made people feel that she was advancing toward her goal step by step.

Hearing Yue Wenhan saying that he would support her without hesitation, Qu Moying was touched. She smiled gently, nodded heavily, and thanked Yue Wenhan again, “Thank you, cousin brother.”

“Yue is also my elder aunt. I should help her.” Yue Wenhan said with deep meaning, “If anything happens in the future, don’t forget me! Just wait and see!”

After entering the mansion just now, Granny Miao told him what had happened on their way to Old Lady Ji’s room. Old Lady Ji and Xiao knew nothing about it. They thought that Qu Moying had just seen something because she didn’t mention what had happened.

In fact, when Qu Moying first entered the mansion, she told Old Lady Ji about it. However, Old Lady Ji later forgot about it. She thought it was just a small matter, or perhaps Qu Moying had deliberately exaggerated it. Therefore, she didn’t take it seriously.

“Then let’s wait first. Cousin brother, be careful.” Qu Moying said with a smile.

“I will be careful. You… need to be careful too. If there is anything, let me do it.” Yue Wenhan reminded Qu Moying in a reserved manner. A trace of pity flashed through his eyes. Qu Moying was young, yet she was so intelligent and could do such a thing. She must have lived a bad life. Otherwise, how could she be so sensible?

“Did the Yue Family mistreat her?” Thinking of this, Yue Wenhan couldn’t help but get angry.

Qu Moying knew what Yue Wenhan meant. After all, she was an unmarried young lady. It was inconvenient for her to do and even talk about many things because a lady’s reputation was so important that her future depended on it.

“Thank you, cousin brother.” This time, Qu Moying did not say anything else but nodded with a smile.

The two of them did not say anything in detail, but they were both smart people. What would happen next was not just their business.

Pei Luo’an was the Crown Prince. He would never covet the ex-Crown Princess’ dowry. Moreover, the ex-Crown Princess died because of him, and he kept showing his deep affection for her in front of others.

Yue Wenhan and Qu Moying parted at the Ji Family’s gate and returned to their respective residences.

Not long after they left, another carriage drove out of the gate of Earl Ling’an’s Mansion. In the carriage sat Xiao, and her face was gloomy. She had to tell her daughter about this matter and let her daughter explain it to the Crown Prince. She thought Qu Moying was just a mere Vice Minister’s daughter who didn’t have the right to meddle in the affairs of their mansion.

As for Yue Wenhan, she believed that he would not dare to ask for the dowry as soon as the Crown Prince flared up because he had to think about his future.

The carriage went all the way to the Crown Prince’s Mansion and stopped in the parking lot. Xiao got off the carriage and was about to move forward when she suddenly saw a few eunuchs coming over. Seeing her carriage stop here, a eunuch screamed, “Where did this carriage come from? Quickly get out of here.”

The maid beside Xiao stood up and said loudly, “It’s our madam’s carriage. Can’t you see it? She is here to see Princess Ji.”

In the past, when Xiao came over, Ji Youran had always shown her respect. Every time Xiao got off the carriage, there would be people coming to greet her. Therefore, Xiao’s maids became arrogant. They thought that their miss was the master of the inner yard of Crown Prince’s Mansion, so she was naturally far more superior to ordinary visitors.

What was so great about a eunuch? He was just a servant serving their miss.

One of the eunuchs glanced at the maid and said coldly, “What madam? Someone, get the carriage out of here.”

A eunuch came over, jumped onto the carriage, pushed the carriage driver down, and then whipped the horse with the horsewhip to drive the carriage out.

Xiao trembled with anger. She had never been treated like this before in Crown Prince’s Mansion. She pointed at one of the eunuchs and said, “Okay… Okay. The Side Princess will deal with you! Just you wait!”

“The Side Princess? Who is that?” A eunuch sneered, and the other eunuchs also laughed and echoed, “We’ve never heard of any Side Princess being our master.”

They looked at Xiao with disdain and turned to leave.

Xiao was so angry that she wanted to yell at the few eunuchs. However, she knew that this was Crown Prince’s Mansion, so she didn’t dare to be too presumptuous. She could only grit her teeth. She was determined to let her daughter whip these eunuchs severely to disable them when she saw her daughter. She was determined to teach these eunuchs an unforgettable lesson so that they would not dare to be so arrogant in the future.

Supported by her maid, she walked out of the parking lot. Seeing her carriage that was pushed into a corner, Xiao was even more furious. She had never been so angry before. These eunuchs really went too far.

“Madam, let’s go find Princess Ji first.” The maid advised.

Xiao tried her best to calm down and ordered the carriage driver to drive the carriage in again. She also let an old maid guard the carriage in the parking lot. She would like to see if anyone would dare to drive her carriage out again.

There was not a single carriage in such a large parking lot. Anyone could stop their carriage here. There were even fewer carriages than in the past. Why did she have to stop her carriage in a corner outside the mansion and make room for others?

She thought these despicable eunuchs were too insensible to recognize her and deliberately made things difficult for her.

Xiao went to Ji Youran’s yard with her maid. Someone had already reported to Ji Youran. It was inconvenient for Ji Youran to walk out, but she sent a maid over. Seeing that the maid was actually Ji Hanyue’s senior maid, Xiao was furious. She snorted and turned around to enter Ji Youran’s room.

The maid, Xie Feng, did not dare to say anything. She carefully followed Xiao into the room.

Ever since she began to serve Ji Youran, Xiao had never liked her, but Ji Youran trusted her very much and repeatedly told her not to provoke Xiao.

Ji Youran was half leaning on the bed. Her injuries were not serious, and she had almost fully recovered. However, her body was still very weak. The Crown Prince had treated her well these past few days. He came to see her from time to time and chatted with her, which made her less depressed and more cheerful. She believed that what happened that day was an accident and that the Crown Prince didn’t mean it.

Thinking of this, she no longer felt upset.

The Crown Prince had indeed treated her very well these past few days. He brought all kinds of good stuff to her, which had driven the last bit of uneasiness and discomfort out of her heart.

After all, the Crown Prince had her in his heart. Thinking of what happened to Ji Hanyue that day and the treatment she now enjoyed, Ji Youran felt very happy. She thought she was the most important woman in the Crown Prince’s heart. Even if Ji Hanyue was still alive, she would not be able to compare with her.

As for the Crown Prince’s deep affection for Ji Hanyue, the Crown Prince was just acting. Who would take it seriously?

Therefore, Ji Youran was living well recently, but the things in the Ji Family made her annoyed. She was thinking about what to say to let the Crown Prince take care of the Ji Family’s matter. Concubine Xiang became the legitimate wife of the deceased Earl Ling’an. Ji Youran was unhappy about this. At present, the Crown Prince was attentive and gentle to her. It was just that she had not found the right time to talk to him about the issue.

Seeing Xiao coming in with an angry face, Ji Youran asked, “Mother, what happened?”

She looked at Xie Feng behind Xiao, but Xie Feng shook her head silently because she didn’t know what had happened either.

“What else could it be? Some servants in your mansion have really gone too far.” Xiao was really angry that she didn’t even bother to talk about the Ji Family’s matter first but directly brought up what had happened just now. She sat down on the chair beside the bed and angrily told the story.

After she finished speaking, Ji Youran’s face darkened. She was in charge of almost everything in Eastern Palace, but there was actually someone who dared to disrespect her mother.

“Go and find out which despicable servants did this!” Ji Youran ordered.

An old maid went out to ask around.

“Mother, don’t be angry. It’s not a big deal. It is just a eunuch. I will beat him half to death and throw him out later. Mother, don’t be angry.” Ji Youran said with a gentle smile.

“It’s not just a despicable servant. There is also that damned girl from Qu Mansion.” Xiao said, glancing at the people in Ji Youran’s room.

“Mother, don’t worry. They are all my people.” Ji Youran smiled and leaned back.

She had been in charge of the affairs in Eastern Palace’s inner yard for a period of time, so she naturally had some trusted people.

“Greetings, Princess Ji. Madam, your carriage is overturned.” An old maid hurriedly came in to report. It was the old maid who Xiao asked to guard the parking lot just now.

“Who did it?” Xiao suddenly stood up and asked sternly.

Ji Youran’s gaze turned cold. She frowned. Who dared to do such a thing in this mansion? She ordered, “Go find out who did it and beat him to death.”

This was a slap in her face. Ever since she entered Eastern Palace, no one had embarrassed her like this. Even the people around the Crown Prince were quite polite to her.

Another old maid stormed out aggressively, bringing several rough old maids with her. Ji Youran’s meaning was very clear. No matter who overturned Xiao’s carriage, she would beat the troublemakers to death first to declare her prestige.

“Mother, sit down first. Don’t be angry. No matter which servant did this, I will definitely help you vent your anger.” Ji Youran comforted Xiao.

“You should teach your servants well, lest they don’t know who their master is.” Xiao snorted and sat down. She had suffered a lot today.

Ji Youran frowned, unwilling to continue the topic. She said, “Mother, I understand. Tell me what happened to the Fourth Lady of Qu Mansion?”

“She came to us again, saying that Ji Hanyue’s dowry shops belonged to your elder aunt. She said that since your elder aunt has passed away, the Yue Family can reclaim the dowry.” As soon as Xiao mentioned Qu Moying, she felt annoyed. A trace of coldness flashed in her eyes as she said impatiently, “What’s wrong with this damn girl? Why has she always made things difficult for us? You should think of a way to deal with her, in case she keeps making trouble for us.”
