Fu An'an was still somewhat unsatisfied.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to see Lord Huai and Lu Ning today."
Mo Qingrui waved her hand.
"They all have relatives in the court, so they probably don't have time to go out right now. You should go and get busy."
After Fu An'an left, Mo Qingrui got up and sat down next to Jiang Qingwan, lowering her voice to say, "You should advise Uncle Jiu that the Emperor Emeritus is old and may pass away at any time. In the future, the Emperor will naturally be the most respected figure in the Great Zhou Dynasty. When you're under someone else's roof, don't try to stand out."
Jiang Qingwan was not worried about this.
That's something Mo Yunhan should consider; it has nothing to do with her.
She was more curious about something else.
Have you met Mo Yunhan's mother?
Mo Qingrui's expression changed drastically, and she subconsciously shook her head.
"No, I...I've never seen it."
Jiang Qingwan rested her chin on her hand.
"Is Mo Yunhan's mother a demon?"
"puff!"
Mo Qingrui, who was drinking tea to calm her nerves, was so startled that she spat out the tea.
Jiang Qingwan took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.
"It really is a demon."
Mo Qingrui wished she could go over and cover her mouth.
"Aunt Jiu, you must not mention this matter."
Jiang Qingwan stared into her eyes and spoke again.
"I once saw a portrait in Mo Yunhan's study, of a very beautiful woman wearing an ornate forehead ornament..."
Mo Qingrui suddenly stood up, her face as pale as paper.
"Aunt Jiu, I suddenly remembered that I have some things to do, so... I won't be able to keep you company."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Jiang Qingwan tilted her head and watched her leave, gently tapping the table with her small hand.
"Qingsui!"
Qinghui, who was waiting outside the room, immediately came in.
"princess."
Jiang Qingwan raised her eyes, "I asked you to investigate Su Weichuan's matter, is Mo Yunhan aware of this?"
Qinghui thought for a moment and nodded sincerely.
“If His Highness inquires, those people will not remain silent. You do not wish His Highness to know?”
Jiang Qingwan shook her head.
"I didn't mean to hide it from him, but he's prone to overthinking, which makes things more complicated."
She stood up.
"Let's go to the Su Prince's Mansion."
Qing Sui was greatly surprised.
"You're going to see Su Weichuan? No, it's too dangerous."
Jiang Qingwan smiled and said, "I'm not going to break into the mansion, nor am I going to steal or kill anyone. I'm just going to pay a visit openly and honestly. What danger could there be?"
Green ears of grain blocked the way.
"Let's inform the Prince."
"Qinghui, you are not Ye Shijiu."
Jiang Qingwan's words left Qing Sui speechless, unable to stop her any longer.
Ye Shijiu's master is Mo Yunhan.
Qinghui's master is Jiang Qingwan.
Qinghui had no choice but to stay with her.
The gatekeeper, carrying the visiting card from the Ninth Prince's Mansion, stumbled and ran to the Buddha Heart Hall.
He nearly knocked over Su Yulan, who had just come out of there.
Su Yulan was no longer as fearful as she had been a few days ago.
His face was flushed with pride and he looked very pleased with himself.
Seeing the doorman fall down while trying to avoid her, she kicked him in annoyance.
"You blind bastard, you've dirtied my skirt, why don't you slap yourself?"
Chunmei picked up the visiting card that had fallen to the ground, glanced at the gold-embossed words on it, and immediately handed it to Su Yulan.
“Princess, this is a visiting card from the Ninth Prince’s residence.”
Su Yulan immediately took it, unfolded it, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Is that the Ninth Prince?"
The gatekeeper shook his head.
"No, it's the Ninth Prince's Consort."
Su Yulan tore the visiting card to shreds, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it twice.
"What kind of damn Ninth Prince's Consort is she? She hasn't even had her wedding yet, nor has she paid respects to her ancestors. What is she? How dare she come to the Su Prince's residence to see my grandfather? I, the county princess, want to see what she's up to."
Hearing the door open, Jiang Qingwan turned around.
He paused slightly as he watched Su Yulan walk out aggressively.
Qing Sui stepped forward warily, blocking Jiang Qingwan's path, and whispered, "Your Highness, why don't we return to the manor first and come back another day?"
Jiang Qingwan raised her hand and pushed her away.
"No need for such trouble. I am determined to see Prince Su today."
“To see my grandfather? You’re not worthy!” Su Yulan stood on the stone steps, looking down at him with sarcasm in her eyes.
"I know what you're here for. Isn't it because Qin Minglang wasn't punished by the Emperor as the Ninth Prince wished? You actually came up with the idea of complaining to my grandfather. You're incredibly foolish."
Jiang Qingwan remained silent.
Su Yulan was even more pleased with herself.
"The Ninth Prince has repeatedly framed my husband for the sake of a vile woman like you. But in broad daylight, the truth will eventually come to light. The Emperor's reputation will not be swayed by such petty people as you. Now, the Emperor, out of compassion for my husband's forbearance, has decreed that he be appointed as the true Chief Justice of the Court of Judicial Review. From now on, my husband will be under the Emperor's protection. To bully my husband is to defy the Emperor. Jiang Qingwan, your good days are over."
Jiang Qingwan remained silent.
Looking at her overly calm face, Su Yulan felt as if she had punched a piece of cotton, and a surge of anger inexplicably rose within her.
"Are you mute? Our Su family has plenty of guards and doormen. Get out of here now."
Jiang Qingwan then let out a soft sigh.
"You will suffer a bloody disaster today."
Su Yulan was stunned for a moment, then giggled.
"Oh my, do you really think you're some omnipotent, precognitive celestial master? Did you foresee that my husband would escape from dire straits and be blessed with wealth, while the Ninth Prince would end up with nothing?"
Jiang Qingwan smiled faintly.
"Everyone who sees a mirage or the moon's reflection in water will also experience the same frenzied joy as you."
Su Yulan's smile froze instantly.
