Qin Qing had been silent all along, but she was completely surprised at this moment. She had met her strict father and thought that the Grand Tutor was the kind of person who was stubborn and serious on the outside but soft on the inside. She never expected him to be such a terrible father!
"Isn't the Grand Tutor incredibly blind? To beat his own daughter in public for the sake of a concubine—is this how the Grand Tutor conducts himself? Ha, what an eye-opener!"
The sarcastic words made the somewhat uneasy Grand Tutor frown instantly. He looked at the speaker, and upon seeing him, his eyes widened slightly.
At the same time, the others present noticed the woman in purple standing not far from Liu Piaorou…
She was stunningly beautiful yet gentle, cool yet alluring, and incredibly eye-catching. How come they hadn't noticed her before?
The Grand Tutor snapped out of his daze, still maintaining his composure, and looked at her with a serious expression.
"And who are you? My family affairs are none of your business!"
Qin Qing frowned and took two steps forward, her gaze filled with disgust and anger.
"Stop your nonsense! You've lived for decades and you're still so blind! Didn't you hear what people were saying? Your daughter was just publicly humiliated by the Sixth Princess, and no one stood up for her, no one cared about her feelings. Your good concubine just sat there watching the show, not even saying a word!"
After saying that, without waiting for everyone to be surprised by her vulgar language, she walked to Liu Piaorou's side, pulled down Liu Piaorou's hand that was covering her face, leaving Liu Piaorou somewhat at a loss.
"And you, without even asking what happened, started scolding your own daughter the moment you arrived, and then complained that she was useless. This slap was like you were hitting an enemy! Look how clear the handprint is on her face, it shows you didn't hold back at all! How much do you hate your daughter?"
The sarcasm in his eyes filled the Grand Tutor with anger and annoyance. He felt a pang of regret, but with so many people watching, he, the Grand Tutor, could not afford to lose face and then lose face in return! He shouted, his voice choked with rage!
"How I treat my daughter is none of your business, an outsider!"
Qin Qing snorted coldly upon hearing this; she was utterly exasperated by this kind of person!
"Fine, I can ignore it, but as an observer who just witnessed everything, I can't help but express my feelings! You are utterly unworthy of being a father! As a father, you don't cherish your children! As a tutor, you can't distinguish right from wrong! As a husband, you are blind and promiscuous! As a scholar, you are pedantic and obsessed with saving face! How can someone like you be expected to teach the future emperor?"
His words were spoken with great emotion and intonation, leaving the audience speechless and dumbfounded...
The Grand Tutor was furious, his face flushed red, and he raised his hand, pointing at her with trembling fingers!
"You! You! You..."
Upon seeing this, Qin Qing rolled her eyes.
"Don't point at me! Don't you know that's very impolite? Doesn't the Grand Tutor understand this basic principle?"
As she was getting into her speech, Liu Qing, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't help but speak up. He frowned at her and said righteously.
"Madam, please watch your words. This is the Grand Tutor's residence! The person before you is the Grand Tutor! The tutor of the current Crown Prince! A pillar of the nation..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Qing angrily interrupted him.
"Shut up, you bastard! Do you think you have the right to interrupt me?"
Liu Qing was immediately stunned. The familiar tone made him somewhat at a loss. He already felt that the woman in front of him was somewhat familiar, and hearing these words made him feel even more uneasy. His eyes were fixed on Qin Qing...
Although the light was good due to the dim lighting, this person's detached and otherworldly demeanor was completely different from the person he remembered. Furthermore, the light gauze dress he wore clearly looked expensive. It couldn't possibly be that person…
"Rebellion! Utter rebellion! I refuse to believe that I can let a mere woman rule like a king today! Guards, seize her!"
The Grand Tutor was already furious, and only then did he realize he needed to call for help.
Qin Qing wasn't afraid at all. She picked up her grandson and ran, calling out as she ran.
"Help! Murder to silence witnesses! After his true nature was exposed, Grand Tutor Liu has gone berserk and is about to kill innocent civilians! Help!!"
Liu Piaorou was stunned by Qin Qing's sudden crazy behavior. She had never seen such a eloquent and persuasive woman before. Even her mother, a strong and stubborn woman, was probably no match for her!
Behind the crowd, a man almost burst out laughing when he saw Qin Qing's exaggerated actions of running and shouting!
Everyone else watched with amusement, while Grand Tutor Liu was furious. His perfectly good birthday banquet had been ruined by this wretched girl and the madwoman.
Qin Qing ran and shouted, constantly dodging a group of servants behind him, and slowly he ran into the inner courtyard!
When Grand Tutor Liu realized this, his expression immediately changed! He quickly shouted.
"Quick! Stop her! Don't let her into the backyard!"
Qin Qing wasn't stupid. Hearing him say that, she immediately accelerated and rushed towards the backyard...
As the old lady listened to the female doctor's account, her expression gradually hardened, her gaze becoming deep and angry!
After the female doctor left, only she and her maid Juying, who had been with her for half her life, remained in the room…
"Smack!"
The teacup was smashed to the ground. The old lady was trembling with rage, her eyes wide with fury, and she was panting heavily!
"I've known her for a long time, yet she's so eager for me to die? Has she forgotten who's been doing those dirty things for her all these years!"
Seeing this, Juying quickly came over, gently patted her back, and looked at her nervously.
"Miss, don't be upset. It's not worth getting sick from getting angry. Besides, it's hard to say whether this is a coincidence or a frame-up."
Having served the old lady for decades, she still addressed her as "Miss" in private, demonstrating the depth of trust between them.
The old lady laughed in anger upon hearing this! Her voice was somewhat shrill.
“Coincidence? Framing? This white jade coral was personally delivered by the Sixth Princess Qi Ning’er! Given her meticulousness, there’s no way she could have made a mistake! Qi Ning’er is her most beloved granddaughter, and I also dote on her. I would never doubt the gift she sent. If no one had noticed, I probably wouldn’t even know how I died!”
Seeing her like this, Juying said no more, and only cautiously said.
"Then, Miss, what should we do from now on? The Grand Tutor's mansion has always relied on the Empress Dowager as its powerful backer, but now that relations have soured, I'm afraid..."
Upon hearing this, the old lady was taken aback, her expression gradually becoming serious, a cold and vicious glint flashing across her face.
"Since she's so heartless, then don't blame me..."
Before he could finish speaking, a loud shout suddenly came from outside!
"Help! Grand Tutor Liu is killing someone in public to silence them!"
The voice grew closer and closer, and the old lady found it somewhat familiar, so she frowned and said...
"What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"
