Chapter 414



Therefore, at this time, Wei Yuejiao would not expose herself so as to prevent Wei Yuewu from becoming skeptical. She immediately sneered, “Oh, so you were joking with me. Of course, Grandmother didn’t ask me to go to Prince Nan’an Mansion!”

“Grandmother didn’t say anything, but Nanny Hong came to inform me.” Wei Yuewu nodded, but she shifted her feet slightly as if she didn’t want to talk to Wei Yuejiao. “Third Elder Sister, I have something to do, so I need to take my leave now. Bye.”

“Sixth Younger Sister, don’t you want to wait for Fourth Younger Sister here?” Wei Yuejiao sneered and mocked.

“No, I need to go now. Fourth Elder Sister might be caught up with something, and she can’t come,” Wei Yuewu said indifferently and left with Huamo.

However, after they took a few steps away, Huamo suddenly whispered something to Wei Yuewu. From Wei Yuejiao’s angle, she could see that Wei Yuewu’s expression changed, and she asked Huamo a few more questions in a low voice. She seemed to be scolding her as Huamo’s hands shivered, and the latter looked as if she was about to cry.

Wei Yuejiao clenched the note in her hand tighter.

She looked at Wei Yuewu smugly. Wei Yuewu must have found out that the note was missing. Of course, she would not tell her that she had the note.

“Third Elder Sister, did you see something on the floor?” Sure enough, Wei Yuewu turned around and asked timidly.

“No. Did you drop something? What is it?” Wei Yuejiao raised her chin and glanced at Wei Yuewu.

Wei Yuewu pretended not to see the pride on her face. She sized Wei Yuejiao up skeptically and shook her head. “Nothing. Never mind, I’ll keep looking.”

“What are you looking for? Do you need my help?”

“No, thanks! Thanks for your help.” Wei Yuewu shook her head decisively and left with Huamo in the direction of Wei Yuejiao’s Fengyi Courtyard. This path should be the one she had taken before.

At the sight of Wei Yuewu’s frown, Wei Yuejiao narrowed her eyes, and the last trace of doubt in her mind dissipated. She crumpled the note in her hand. Needless to say, the content of the note must be real.

She could tell from the way Wei Yuewu tried to keep her in the dark!

“Xie Qingzhao? Hah, I don’t want to be with him! Whoever wants him, be my guest, but don’t even think about marrying me to him!”

He should look at himself in the mirror before saying something so ridiculous as to marry her! Last time, he even dared to say that he fell in love with her at first sight!

Charming and handsome? Had a promising future? Hah, she didn’t think so! The man she wanted to marry was naturally a man who was elegant and powerful. The Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State was the best choice in her eyes.

Xie Qingzhao didn’t even qualify to be his lad servant…

“Miss, what was Sixth Young Lady looking for?” Yuzhu looked at Wei Yuejiao doubtfully. She saw the note that Wei Yuejiao had picked up, and she took the note from the place where Wei Yuewu had left.

“Who knows!” Wei Yuejiao turned around, but instead of going directly to the path Wei Yuewu had gone, she went another way.

She had no intention to tell Yuzhu about the note because Yuzhu was one of Concubine Dong’s trusted servants. If Yuzhu knew about the note, she would definitely inform Concubine Dong about it. By then, Concubine Dong would come over again and nag her. It was so annoying even when she imagined it.

“Miss, are we not going back to the courtyard?” Yuzhu looked at the path that Wei Yuejiao was walking on and asked worriedly.

The path that Wei Yuewu had taken before was the path back to Fengyi Courtyard.

“No, we’re not going back to Fengyi Courtyard. Let’s visit Fifth Younger Sister,” Wei Yuejiao snorted lightly. Wei Qiuju was the daughter of a concubine, so Wei Yuejiao had never taken her seriously. In fact, in the entire mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, Wei Qiuju was a dispensable person, and she was the one whom Wei Yuejiao looked down on the most.

Of course, at that time, she didn’t have Wei Yuewu on her list of rivals. Concubine Dong repeatedly told her that Wei Yuewu would not live for long and might not be able to return to the capital.

“Visit Fifth Young Lady?” Yuzhu was startled. As Wei Yuejiao’s personal maid, she knew about Wei Yuejiao’s contempt for Wei Qiuju.

“Yes, visit Wei Qiuju, my Fifth Younger Sister,” Wei Yuejiao said resolutely.

“But why? Even if you wanted to talk to someone, you should go to Fourth Young Lady,” Yuzhu asked in confusion as she couldn’t understand what Wei Yuejiao was thinking.

Wei Qiufu? Wei Yuejiao gritted her teeth in great dismay when she thought about how Wei Qiufu had tricked her. However, she couldn’t go and condemn her now because her status in the mansion was very high now because of the Empress’ decree.

As soon as she thought of this, Wei Yuejiao was so angry that her face turned ashen, and her chest ached.

Over the years, she had treated Wei Qiufu as her best sister. Every time she returned to the capital, she would bring her many things. However, she didn’t expect Wei Qiufu to put her in harm’s way.

“Fourth Younger Sister is not an ordinary person now. We can no longer go and see her as we please,” Wei Yuejiao mocked. Even the thought of Wei Qiufu enraged her, so she did not want to see her at all, lest something bad happened again.

When that happened, Grandmother and Father would definitely reprimand her.

On the contrary, she wanted to see Wei Qiuju because the content of the note was related to the latter. She wanted to see Wei Qiuju on the grounds of discussing the marriage between Wei Qiuju and the Heir-apparent of Prince Nan’an.

Did she have to end up with Xie Qingzhao just because the Fourth Prince took a fancy to Wei Yuewu? In her dreams! No matter what, Wei Yuejiao was determined to ruin the Fourth Prince’s impression of Wei Yuewu. If Wei Yuewu became the Fourth Princess Consort, she and Concubine Dong would never flourish again.

Since Wei Qiuju was the one who passed her the note, she naturally had to go and ask Wei Qiuju in person. Wei Qiuju was timid and docile, and she would not dare to disobey her. By then, she would spill all the beans!

After she left in a hurry, Wei Yuewu slowly walked back with Huamo.

“Miss, Third Young Lady really went to see Fifth Young Lady. Do you think Fifth Young Lady will snitch on you?” Huamo looked worriedly in the direction where Wei Yuejiao had disappeared. Her heart was in her mouth.

“She won’t.” Wei Yuewu shook her head and looked at the road indifferently.

“Why not? Fifth Young Lady is always accommodating and manipulable.” Huamo was genuinely worried and jittery because of Wei Qiuju’s fickle personality.

When she went to deliver the letter to Wei Qiuju, she saw that Wei Qiuju looked distressed as if she wanted to refuse her. Later, she said a few words according to Wei Yuewu’s instructions, and Wei Qiuju reluctantly agreed.

Despite that, Huamo felt that she was not too reliable.

“I’m sure that she won’t this time,” Wei Yuewu said as she walked towards Lotus Courtyard. Tomorrow’s matter was crucial to Wei Qiuju. It would be too conspicuous if she didn’t go. If others knew that Madam Dowager had taken the initiative to discuss this matter, the reputations of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang and Wei Qiuju would be tarnished.

Therefore, it was good for Wei Qiuju to have one more person go over.

Moreover, Wei Qiuju would embarrass herself if she annoyed Wei Yuewu, and Wei Yuewu decided not to go by feigning sickness. Wei Yuewu figured that Wei Qiuju would not snitch on her if she took this under consideration.

All Wei Qiuju had to do was to vaguely hoodwink Wei Yuejiao. If Wei Qiuju could not understand such a simple fact, she would not be able to win over the Heir-apparent of Prince Nan’an’s heart that day!

“But Miss, you will go to Prince Nan’an Mansion tomorrow too. What about Shopkeeper Liu and the shop?” Huamo felt relieved when she heard Wei Yuewu’s reassurance.

“Don’t worry about it. I will take you to Prince Nan’an Mansion tomorrow. Jin Ling and Shufei will be here,” Wei Yuewu said indifferently.

Jin Ling could assign tasks for Yan Yang and Yan Feng outside the mansion. Shopkeeper Liu was also one of her weapons.

Both Madam Dowager and Concubine Dong hoped that the matter would be resolved quickly, and they wanted to change the ownership of her mother’s shops without her acknowledgment. Although the two of them took different methods, they would come to the same outcome. They wanted this to go on in secret, but she wanted to make a big deal out of it.

She wanted to intensify the whole matter, so much so that it would attract the attention of everyone in the entire capital.

She wanted to see if Concubine Dong and Madam Dowager had the cheeks to take advantage of her mother’s property by then.

She would not reveal her mother’s dowry list, nor could she reveal it. It seemed to contain a huge secret. Before she found out about the secret, she would not disclose the list.

She was even more curious and confused about the few large shops on the list. Moreover, these shops seemed not to be in Madam Dowager’s control. No matter how she looked at it, this matter was mysterious.

“Is Jin Ling leaving the mansion tomorrow? But what if Madam Dowager finds out?” Huamo asked worriedly. She was genuinely concerned because the maids could not casually leave the mansion.

If she forcefully left the mansion, she would definitely attract Madam Dowager’s attention, and Madam Dowager might be suspicious of the latter events.

“I will bring you all out of the mansion tomorrow and then ask Jin Ling to buy some medicinal herbs. I’ll say that it’s winter, and I’m not feeling well, so she will buy some medicine according to Doctor Ming’s prescription and prepare some traditional decoction for me,” Wei Yuewu said in a flat tone. The other day, she had specifically asked Doctor Ming to prepare a prescription for her because Doctor Ming’s visit to the mansion would arouse suspicion.

Now, the prescription came in handy.

Huamo was eventually relieved when she heard that Wei Yuewu had arranged everything properly. She raised her head and looked at Wei Yuewu’s slender and frail back, feeling at ease for some reason.

Everyone who lived in the seemingly wealthy and influential mansion of Marquis Hua Yang had to take every step cautiously like treading on thin ice. Wei Yuewu was so fragile and scrawny with nobody backing her in the mansion, but she managed to come this far with her intelligence and resourcefulness. Having this kind of Master was really reassuring.

Actually, not only she but also Jin Ling and the rest were also impressed by Wei Yuewu, and they had absolute faith in her.

While they were returning to Lotus Courtyard, Wei Yuejiao aggressively came to Wei Qiuju’s courtyard.

At this moment, Wei Qiuju was very nervous because the trip to Prince Nan’an Mansion tomorrow was related to her marriage. Previously, she had been to Madam Dowager’s courtyard and whined a little according to Wei Yuewu’s instructions, and Madam Dowager seemed to have realized her unique value.

If Wei Fengyao couldn’t make it, Wei Qiuju would be another trump card of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, so Madam Dowager promised to seek a position as high as possible for Wei Qiuju, and tomorrow was the key.

“Miss, Third Young Lady is here!” Her maid, Yueya, hurriedly came in and reported.

“What? S-She really came!” Wei Qiuju’s hand trembled, and the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground…
