After hearing Qi Yuning's recounting of what Xiao Man had overheard, Lu Ze said helplessly, "Don't bother paying attention to my grandmother. She keeps using the Red Book of Merit. Her words don't count."
Qi Yuning looked up at Lu Ze and said, "Actually, there's no need to use the Red Book of Iron."
Lu Ze said, "It's okay for Baozhu to suffer a little more. I'm worried that my mother will be sad and worried every day, which will be too detrimental to her health. So I decided to use the Red Book and Iron Certificate to solve the problem."
Qi Yuning fixed her hair, stood up and said, "Before we go back to the Princess's Mansion, come with me to the Qin family!"
Lu Ze looked outside. It was already dusk and the sky was about to darken. "Now?"
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Yes."
Qi Yuning changed into a neat spring outfit and got on the carriage with Lu Ze.
The streets outside were filled with people hurrying home. The carriage traveled for about two quarters of an hour before arriving at the residence of Uncle Qin.
In the mansion of Qin Guo's uncle.
When Qin Yuli heard the maid come to report that Lu Ze and Qi Yuning were coming together, she stood up and asked the maid to bring her a mirror. Qin Yuli tidied her hair and lay down on the bed, waiting for Lu Ze to come in.
The second wife of the Qin family followed Qi Yuning and said, "Princess, my eldest daughter is recovering from her injuries..."
Qi Yuning saw Qin Yuli's courtyard in front of him and said to Lu Ze beside him, "Qin Yuli's courtyard is right in front of us. Wait for me outside. If I don't come out after two quarters of an hour, you can come inside to find me."
Lu Ze replied, "Yeah."
Qi Yuning brought Lichun Shuangjiang and four female secret guards disguised as maids into Qin Yuli's house.
Qin Yuli saw that there was only Qi Yuning and no Lu Ze, so she stretched her neck to look behind Qi Yuning.
Qi Yuning also turned and looked at Qin Yuli, then turned back to look at Qin Yuli and said, "Long time no see."
Qin Yuli glared at Qi Yuning, the corners of her lips curled slightly and she said arrogantly: "Brother Ze is mine, don't even think about snatching him from me."
Qi Yuning sneered, "With this clumsy scheme of yours, you're dreaming of entering the princess's mansion and marrying Lu Ze!"
Qin Yuli stood up, tugging at her wound. She took a breath and said, "Princess Pingrou and Prince Consort Lu have always doted on Lu Baozhu. Lu Baozhu is Cousin Ze's biological sister. Do you think you and that bastard Lingling, whose origins are unknown, can rival Lu Baozhu's position in Cousin Ze's heart?"
Qi Yuning stepped forward and slapped Qin Yuli in the face.
This slap shocked the Second Madam of the Qin family, "Princess!"
Qin Yuli covered her face and looked at Qi Yuning in disbelief, "Are you crazy? You dare to hit me?"
Qi Yuning signaled to Shuangjiang with his eyes, and the four female secret guards brought by Qi Yuning used their hand knives to knock out all the Qin family servants in the room.
Lichun and Shuangjiang stepped forward and controlled Madam Qin Er.
Qi Yuning stepped forward, pinched Qin Yuli's chin, took out a dagger from his sleeve, and tapped Qin Yuli's face lightly.
Qin Yuli saw the sharp, cold dagger in Qi Yuning's hand slashing across her face, and she screamed in fear: "Qi Yuning, what are you going to do?"
Qin Yuli wanted to raise her hand to grab the dagger in Qi Yuning's hand, but she was already seriously injured and had no strength. Qi Yuning exerted force and pushed Qin Yuli's hand away.
Qi Yuning put the dagger against Qin Yuli's neck.
Madam Qin Er, standing by, said repeatedly, "Princess, what are you doing? This is the Qin family. Do you dare to kill anyone?"
Qi Yuning said, "Why not? I'm not like you, Qin Yuli. If I kill you, I will openly admit that it was me who killed you!"
Qin Yuli was so frightened that she trembled and said, "Qi Yuning, what are you doing? What are you doing?! Killing someone means paying with your life. This is Uncle Qin's residence!"
Qi Yuning glared at Qin Yuli and said, "Qin Yuli, I, Qi Yuning, have had my engagement cancelled once and have become a laughing stock. There are only 29 days left in March this year, and now it's only the 26th until my wedding. If this marriage fails, I will be laughed at by the people of Shengjing City, so..."
Qi Yuning slapped Qin Yuli's face with the blade and said, "It would be better if you died. You made me a laughing stock, but I will never let you live alone!"
Madam Qin Er repeatedly said, "Princess Qi, if you kill someone, you must pay with your life!"
Qi Yuning smiled and said to Qin Yuli, "Kill someone and you have to pay with your life? The Lu family has a red letter of guarantee, and the Qi Wang Mansion has no shortage of red letter of guarantee. If I kill you, I can save my life and don't have to pay with my life. I don't even want to go to jail.
It's just that your reputation is a little bad, and people just treat it as a joke after dinner. I might as well kill you with my own hands, that would be a relief!"
Qin Yuli was so frightened that she was shaking violently. "You don't dare to do it! You don't dare!"
Qi Yuning placed the dagger in Qin Yuli's hand on her neck. "If you move even a little, your neck will bleed. Do you think I dare?"
Qin Yuli screamed in fear, "Ah! Help!"
Qi Yuning took a handkerchief from the side and blocked Qin Yuli's mouth, "It's not difficult for me to spare your life. Go and clarify that the person who killed you was not Lu Baozhu, but you were mistaken in the dark.
Only today did I learn that the murderer was someone else. Otherwise, I might have spared your life today, but I’m not sure what would happen tomorrow.”
Qi Yuning stood up and pushed Qin Yuli down on the bed.
Qi Yuning stabbed the dagger in his hand into the mattress next to Qin Yuli's ear. "Tomorrow at noon, I want to see Lu Baozhu return to the princess's mansion in one piece. Otherwise, I will kill you tomorrow!"
Qin Yuli was extremely panicked. The dagger in front of her almost touched her ear.
Qi Yuning walked up to Madam Qin Er and said coldly, "The Qin family only has these dirty tricks! Beginning of Spring, Frost Descent, let's go."
