After finishing breakfast, Su Lan tidied up her things. Qing Yan held a teacup, staring at the table. Her mother was a master at causing trouble, and her family had brought no shortage of disasters to the Ulanara clan.

"Father, what should we do?" Qingyan was having a headache. If they didn't handle this well, it would definitely be a disaster in the future.

However, they could not arbitrarily deal with the Jue Luo clan. The Ping'e Hang in the capital had always been something that Kangxi was happy to maintain. If it were really broken, Fei Yanggu would have no way to mediate.

"Fourth Master, is the problem extremely serious?" Saito still held a sliver of hope that the Jue Luo family could be saved.

Unfortunately, Yinzhen shook his head. To outsiders, it seemed that Kangxi was not concerned about this matter, but in reality, the opposite was true. Some of the Dragon Guards had already been dispatched and were now investigating these matters. The key issue was that these problems might be related to the Imperial Examination Hall.

“The Jue Luo clan is courting death! This problem is tricky. After all, each of them has their own network of connections. What we have investigated is enough to lure these people into a trap!” Yinzhen said bitterly.

If Jue Luo Shi weren't Xiao Guai's biological mother, he definitely wouldn't have shown any mercy.

Saito's only hope was gone. Both brothers had participated in the training of the new army and the navy, and Kangxi's cultivation of them was obvious to all. If it weren't for this incident, they shouldn't have had to live in fear.

"Father-in-law, tell me honestly, is Mother-in-law involved?" Yinzhen hoped that Fei Yanggu had made arrangements in advance. If Jue Luo Shi was really involved, he shouldn't try to cover it up; he should quickly find a scapegoat.

Fei Yanggu frowned; he was also feeling uneasy. If he had known better, he wouldn't have spoken about it here.

"Probably not. Mother didn't say anything. Yesterday, she came from the capital and just cried in front of us!" Saito said helplessly.

Even if Jue Luo was not good, she was still their mother.

Qingyan sneered. Every time they encountered a problem they couldn't solve, Jue Luo would try to admit their mistakes by crying. If crying could be effective, what would be the point of having them?

"Mother is here? Why didn't she come with you?" Qingyan was stunned. Jueluo Shi didn't come to freeload?

This is definitely not the style of the Jue Luo clan! Unless... Fei Yanggu and his two sons stop them again.

Saito and Eshuo laughed awkwardly. Qingyan was smart; she definitely wouldn't be able to hide the messy things at home from him.

"Tell me!" Qingyan pouted, dissatisfied with their secrecy.

Saito sighed helplessly and quickly recounted the good deeds that Jue Luo had done.

Actually, the reason why Lady Jue Luo came here this time was partly because of the pirates, but more importantly, she wanted Qing Yan to be lenient and let Lady Jue Luo's two young mistresses go.

A few days ago, the two young mistresses of the Jue Luo family went to Linglong Pavilion. Without saying a word or paying, they took away Linglong Pavilion's prized possession. Moreover, they deliberately spread rumors that Qingyan was presenting it to the Guo Luo Ma family.

Those two sets of headdresses, which were the store's prized possessions, were made to the standards of a noble consort. Apart from Lady Tongjia, who could use them, everyone else could only look at them.

"What?! It's the two sets of headdresses that are the store's most prized possessions?" Qingyan was furious. Those two sets of headdresses were specially made for Consort Tong, and no one dared to touch them.

Saito smiled bitterly. This wasn't even the most shameful thing. Even if you were giving someone away, you should at least consider their status first. They actually disregarded Qingyan's position and directly tried to curry favor with Madam Suo.

"Father, you'd better resolve this quickly. If this escalates further, I don't know what I'll do!" Qingyan rubbed his temples, feeling an excruciating headache.

In addition, the Jueluo clan received the news too late; the Jueluo clan had already sent everything away, so it was impossible for Qingyan to retrieve it.

"Write a letter to Mother immediately," Yinzhen uttered.

The Jue Luo clan is definitely here to drag us down. How could they do something like this? Even if they are related by marriage, they shouldn't ruin someone's future.

"That's petty. Mother probably won't say much about it." Qingyan glanced at him.

"I won't care, but you must explain. You absolutely cannot let your mother have any lingering resentment!" Yinzhen said directly to Xiaoguai.

"There's another one. The Jue Luo clan said they ordered a lot of jewelry from Linglong Pavilion, some of which were even designed by Qingyan himself. I don't know where they got those designs!" Fei Yanggu paid attention to Linglong Pavilion and found that something was amiss. He hoped to remind his daughter.

Um? !

Qingyan was stunned. In just a few months of her absence, the manager of Linglong Pavilion had managed to achieve this. It seemed that this person was quite ambitious and could not be allowed to continue.

"Father, are you sure?!" Qingyan asked uncertainly.

Fei Yanggu nodded, completely shattering Qingyan's hopes.

She clenched her little fists, her heart growing heavier. Not only was her mother in trouble, but Linglong Pavilion had also stabbed her in the back.

If the blueprints were indeed stolen, who knows how many people were involved?

This time, they need to stay here for a year before Qingyan can send all the blueprints back. Inevitably, they will be taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives.

"Ah Hun, when are you going back to the capital?" Qingyan was preparing to bring all the blueprints back; no matter who it was, they couldn't let her efforts be wasted like this.

"It should be soon." Seto had to go back to report for duty and would probably stay in the capital for a few days.

"Father, and what about you?" Saito was considered a son of the Jue Luo clan, so his words carried less weight than Fei Yanggu's.

Fei Yanggu pondered for a moment: "It should be around the end of the year!"

If we wait until the end of the year, the Jue Luo family will be beyond repair.

"It's taking too long, Father. Why don't you have the people from our manor take Mother into custody?" Qingyan said with difficulty after considering for a while.

This is the only way to counter the relationship between the Jue Luo clan and Qing Yan. Linglong Pavilion certainly wouldn't dare to refuse the Jue Luo clan. Right now, ensuring the safety of the Ulanara clan is the best option. She would never allow her family to fall into trouble.

“Hmm, I think so too. Seto, what about you?” Fiyangu agreed.

Saito was caught in a dilemma. If he were to rejoin the group, the reputation of the Jue Luo clan in the capital would truly be ruined.

Now that Qingyan is married, her mother's reputation is illustrious, and Qingyan's position in the royal family may be shaken.

“Okay, but we must make it clear to the Jue Luo clan that if they do anything wrong, they shouldn’t try to shift the blame onto the Ulanara clan. We don’t have that much time to argue with them.” E’Shuo was also angry. The Jue Luo clan was useless, and he didn’t want them to have to clean up the mess.

“Okay!” Fei Yanggu agreed immediately, and the children gathered together and solved the problem.
