Qing Yue's smile did not reach her eyes, and she asked indifferently.

"Qin Wan, you..."

Qin Ningyue was furious at Qingyue's indifferent attitude. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a clear male voice, "Little sister."

Then Qing Ziyuan came closer.

"Brother, you're back."

When Qing Yue saw Qing Ziyuan, her eyes immediately lit up. She took a few steps forward to greet him. She had heard that her elder brother had entered the palace early this morning.

Qing Ziyuan stepped forward and looked at Qin Ningyue with a sharp gaze, "What is this?"

Qin Ningyue pursed her lips and subconsciously straightened up, then she heard Qingyue say, "The eldest lady of the Qin family, Qin Ningyue."

As soon as the words fell, Qin Ningyue found that the young general's eyes looking at her had become even colder. Her face looked a little ugly, but she did not forget the etiquette of a noble lady. She nodded at Qing Ziyuan as a greeting. Qing Ziyuan also nodded slightly, but very lightly and extremely coldly. He didn't even look at her, but asked Qingyue, "Go home?"

"good."

Qing Yue nodded. She had long since stopped wanting to talk to Qin Ningyue, so she took Qing Ziyuan's hand and walked towards the mansion.

Only Qin Ningyue was left standing there awkwardly, being completely ignored.

She bit her lip, her eyes filled with humiliated anger. Qin Wan was just lucky, so what was there to be so arrogant about?

She has already lowered herself so much, but he still acts superior and deliberately humiliates her.

There was also Qing Ziyuan, but she had only seen him in the palace a few days ago, and he looked as if he didn't recognize her. Everyone knew that Qing Ziyuan, the young general of the Qing family, was a master of military strategy and had an excellent memory. He was clearly doing it on purpose.

She is just an adopted daughter, but she calls each other "big brother" and "little sister" all the time, and they even walk arm in arm, looking like real siblings. Ha, but she doesn't know how to avoid suspicion at all, it's no wonder that she grew up in the countryside. And the eldest son of the Qing family is also a person who doesn't know etiquette.

Qin Ningyue turned and left with a rage in her heart.

Although Qin Wan didn't tell him whether Qing Yue was alive or not, it was not a complete failure. At least from Qin Wan's reaction, it could be seen that she didn't know the secret of the teahouse four years ago.

"What did she want with you? Did she bully you?"

After entering the mansion, Qing Ziyuan tilted his head and asked, his face serious and unable to hide his worry.

Qing Yue laughed, "Brother, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Am I the kind of person who allows others to bully me? Qin Ningyue has never gotten any good results at my hands, but this time she came to me to ask for something."

Seeing Qing Yue's slightly arrogant look, which was somewhat similar to her former self, Qing Ziyuan's eyes softened a bit, "Then what did she want from you?"

Qing Yue then repeated Qin Ningyue's request.

Qing Ziyuan's brows knitted together, "Little sister, what do you think about this?"

"I don't want to care. Who she wants to marry, or whether she can marry, what does it have to do with me? I have a vague impression of the son of the Fengtian prefect. He is a good person, but he seems to be in poor health.

But according to Qin Ningyue, Yang Qi seemed to have liked her for many years. If that was the case, if Yang Qi really wanted to marry Qin Ningyue, as long as he got her consent, he could ask his father to ask the emperor for the marriage, and Qin Ningyue would not have to ask me.

It seemed like a gesture of goodwill, but I felt something was wrong.

I'll tell A Ling about this and see what he says. Anyway, I won't do anything about it."

Qing Yue said bluntly.

A hint of admiration and smile flashed in Qing Ziyuan's eyes. This was the little girl's nature.

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on."

Qing Ziyuan said.

"By the way, my elder brother went to the palace today and ran into King You."

Qing Ziyuan changed the subject.

Qing Yue was stunned, the smile on her face faltered a little, her eyelashes trembled a few times, "A Yan... Prince You, is he okay?"

"He seems to be in good condition and should be recovering from his injuries. However, he spoke to my eldest brother a few words. He said Qing Yunyao is imprisoned in the Imperial Prison Department. If you want to see her, he will send someone to take you there."

Qing Yue lowered her eyelashes and said nothing.

More than half a month has passed since the day Qing Yunyao's true identity was exposed. He was in a coma before, and he has been too comfortable and happy these days, and he has forgotten about Qing Yunyao.

"Brother, I want to go see her."

The next moment, Qing Yue said, raising her eyes, a hint of coldness and hatred in them, "I want to see what kind of fate she has endured. I want to tell her that I survived, that I'm back in the Qing family, back with my father, mother, and brothers. I also want to ask her if she regrets everything she did before!? Big brother, I just don't want her to have an easy life!"

Qing Yue gritted her teeth and spoke.

She is not a saint who will forget hatred after enduring suffering. She has come to where she is today with blood and tears. Forgiveness does not exist.

She just wanted to see her regretful and miserable look.

"Okay, okay, your eyes are red. If you want to go see it, I'll go with you. Don't cry."

Qing Ziyuan pressed Qing Yue's head against his chest.

Knowing that my younger sister was so traumatized and had suffered from too much trauma, my heart ached terribly.

Yes, when Qing Yue mentioned Qing Yunyao, her mood suddenly became bad.

So when Qing Zhan and Pingyang came over, they saw this scene. When they asked the housekeeper, they learned that the eldest daughter of the Qin family came over and talked to Qing Yue alone. They immediately became angry. What a Qin Ningyue, she gave her face, but still dared to come and bully her.

Turning around, Qing Zhan grabbed Qin Shuo's head, dragged him into the alley and beat him up.

Pingyang even ran directly to Feng Ling and added fuel to the fire.

Feng Ling had been busy these past two days, preparing for the wedding. After hearing Pingyang's complaint, she felt extremely cold.

It seems that Qin Ningyue really didn't take his previous warning to heart.

At noon that day, Feng Ling went directly into the palace and had lunch with Concubine Feng. Then she went to the emperor to make a few remarks. In the afternoon, an imperial edict was delivered to the Qin family.

The marriage was granted by the imperial decree. Qin Ningyue, the legitimate daughter of the Qin family, was virtuous and kind, so she was married to Liu Chengfeng, the second son of the Cheng'an Earl's Mansion.

When the imperial edict was read out, not only was Qin Hongzhang stunned, but Qin Ningyue's face turned pale! She had never expected things to turn out like this!

Grant marriage to Liu Chengfeng?

Qin Ningyue was staggering and almost fainted on the spot.

Who is Liu Chengfeng? He is an uneducated, playboy bastard, a good-for-nothing, a fool and a good-for-nothing. He is Qin Shuo's bad friend and they often hang out together, visiting brothels and drinking wine. He once teased her and was slapped hard by her.

Not to mention that the Cheng'an Marquis's Mansion had long since declined. After the old marquis passed away, his successors had not made many political achievements in either civil or military affairs, and had long since fallen out of the ranking of aristocratic families. Now, there is only the eldest son of the Liu family holding a fourth-rank position.

Why would she be married to Liu Chengfeng?

Qin Ningyue gritted her teeth, her eyes red with hatred. Qin Wan! Qin Wan! How could she be so vicious! She had just come to find her, and now she turned around and sent her to hell. How dare she do this to her!?
