Chapter 204
Chapter 204
Wen Si has a round little face, chubby and pink, and looks no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, like a fairy boy. His smile is very lively, but the mischievous curve at the corners of his lips is probably only noticeable to those who are familiar with him.
"Erlang, are you going to Man Yue Tower to have a feast again?"
Qin Qingdong had important matters to attend to, so he didn't want to waste any more words with her. "I advise you to behave yourself, otherwise you will suffer later." After that, he ignored Wen Si's loud laughter, lifted his robe and trotted out.
"Where is he going in such a hurry?"
Qin Youran smiled and said, "My dear sister, a man has wings on his legs, how can we, women in seclusion, know about it? Come with me to pay respects to the old lady."
Wen Si smiled mischievously, "Is there really no way to cure him?"
For some reason, Qin Youran suddenly thought of the fourth young master's wife of the Pei family, but she didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, what was the purpose of the fourth young lady of the Wen family coming to the mansion?
Qin Qingdong hurried as fast as he could and arrived at the Princess's Villa. Yu Cheng happened to be out. Seeing him dismount, he hurried over to greet him, "Second Master, why are you coming to your house in the heavy rain? Do you have something important to tell me?"
"I haven't seen Fuyun for a long time. I came to visit her."
Yu Cheng had no doubts and said, "Then I will escort the Second Young Master in."
Qin Qingdong waved his hand, "No problem, I'll go by myself, are you going out?"
"Yes! I have come back, but some items from Yunshui have just arrived at Wanxing Wharf today. I took people to get them back."
Qin Qingdong looked at the dark clouds floating in the sky and sighed, "The roads are muddy and slippery in this weather. You should be more careful. I heard from Silang yesterday that you just entered the city this morning. Why didn't you take a few days' rest after such a long journey?"
Yu Cheng smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Second Young Master. I have been through wind and rain, so this short itinerary is nothing."
After the two exchanged greetings, one went to Wanxing Wharf, and the other walked to the mansion under the guidance of the doorman. Ji Fengjirui had already hidden himself when he was one mile away from the Princess's Mansion, and followed Yu Cheng not far away.
When he was about to pass through the second gate, he saw Pan Lan rushing out. When she saw Qin Qingdong, she looked flustered, "Second... Second Young Master, are you here to visit the eldest lady?"
"Of course. Take me to see your girl quickly."
Unexpectedly, Pan Lan hesitated and said, "Why don't you go to the guest room and rest for a while, as the young lady has guests right now."
"Guest? Who is it? Maybe I recognize him."
Qin Qingdong wanted to go in, but Pan Lan hurriedly blocked his way and said, "No, Second Young Master... it's the female relatives..."
"who is it?"
Pan Lan smiled apologetically, "I don't know either. Why don't you wait for me to report it before inviting the Second Young Master in?"
Qin Qingdong sneered, "It wasn't so difficult for me to enter Fuyun Courtyard in the past. You are so brave that you dare to stop me." His tone was unkind. Pan Lan was a little at a loss. She thought about it and found an excuse, "Second Master, please allow me to report that the eldest lady is currently discussing marriage. You and the lady have a deep affection for each other, but you have to avoid suspicion."
"avoid arousing suspicion?"
As if hearing a joke, Qin Qingdong stretched out his hand and pushed Pan Lan away, "Little bitch, you have learned to fool people. The person inside was your former master, but now you are talking nonsense in front of me. Believe it or not, I will sell you out with just one word."
Pan Lan was horrified and knelt down suddenly, trying to delay Qin Qingdong, but Qin Qingdong would not listen to her.
Instead, he was filled with disgust and kicked her right in the heart. Pan Lan was delicate and weak, so how could she withstand such a powerful kick? She immediately felt a pain in her chest and a sweet and fishy taste in her throat. "Second Young Master..." Qin Qingdong had already turned around the corridor and walked towards the main room.
The courtyard where Jin Fuyun lived was the best courtyard in the princess's mansion except for the one that belonged to the princess and the general, and it was named Cuiwei Pavilion.
Many rare trees were arranged inside according to Jin Fuyun's preference. She didn't like flowers very much, so when she entered the courtyard she saw lush greenery.
Qin Qingdong was familiar with the place and came to the main door. Ren Dong, who had been waiting on the side, hurried forward and asked, "Why is the Second Young Master here?"
"Is your young lady in there?"
Needless to say, when he looked up and saw the two beauties sitting in the main and guest seats in the main hall, his heart settled down a little - they didn't fight or quarrel, what a blessing!
Jin Fuyun saw him waving his folding fan, striding his long legs, and coming into the house, so she had to stand up and asked, "Erlang, why are you here today?"
Qin Qingdong grinned, "I haven't come to visit you for a long time. I just happened to be passing by, so I came to take a look. How come Guanzhou is here too? You are a rare visitor to Fuyun!"
Song Guanzhou's expression was cold and he showed no respect at all.
"Qin Er, since you are here, why don't you give me a hand? The eldest lady refused to call the people she had over to let me see what they were doing. I am a nobody, so why don't you try to persuade them?"
"Who does Guan Zhou want to see?"
Qin Qingdong sat down on the official hat chair next to Song Guanzhou without saying anything.
Song Guanzhou said bluntly, "Manager Zhu in front of the young lady, and the warrior with a scar on his forehead!"
Jin Fuyun was so angry that she felt uncomfortable. But she couldn't lose face in front of Qin Qingdong, so she returned to the main seat and replied calmly, "Young Madam came to my house early in the morning and asked to see these two people. I don't know what these two subordinates did, but Young Madam ignored the fatigue of the journey and the rain and came directly to my house to attack me."
"Young lady, you are trying to evade everything and are trying to cover up the truth. As for what evil deeds your subordinates have done, call them up and ask them, and you will naturally know."
When Jin Fuyun heard this, her face instantly turned as cold as frost in December, and her eyes were filled with starlight like thorns.
"Madam, I respect you as Ji Zhang's virtuous wife. I let you in early in the morning, but I did this only for Ji Zhang's sake. You shouldn't push your luck and force others to do things against their will. I've already told you that Uncle Zhu sprained his waist a few days ago and is now bedridden. As for Yu Cheng, he just arrived in the capital yesterday. How could he have offended you?"
Song Guanzhou narrowed his eyes and met Jin Fuyun's eyes, without any fear at all.
She opened her red lips slightly, and said sternly, "Young lady, on the night of March 24th, around midnight, two of your trusted men kidnapped two girls and sold them to Qingmei Garden!"
"nonsense!"
Jin Fuyun slammed the table with her slender hands, and the teacup on the table fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Qin Qingdong's head began to buzz. He looked at Jin Fuyun and said to Song Guanzhou, "Guanzhou, don't be impulsive. Don't say such things carelessly!"
"How can I not say that?"
Song Guanzhou picked up the teacup and smashed it heavily to the ground. Everyone was shocked, but they saw Song Guanzhou sitting in the guest seat, pointing at Jin Fuyun and cursing without any hesitation!
"——Jin Fuyun, you have such a cruel heart!"
