Chapter 28 Visiting Card



Tu Subo smiled and said, "Brother Pei, you should understand your son's character. Although he is young, he is thoughtful and sensible. He will not bear a grudge against you because of such a small matter. As long as you can sincerely explain to him and apologize to that woman, I believe he will understand you."

Pei Jinxiao sighed and sat down: "But how should I explain it to him? How should I face that woman?"

Tu Subo pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Pei, you need to humble yourself and sincerely apologize to that woman. Let her know that you didn't do it on purpose, but because of your inner worry and anxiety. As for your son, you can find a suitable opportunity to tell him what happened and explain your original intention."

Pei Jinxiao nodded, a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "I will do this. Tu Su, you are right, I can't let this matter bother me any more. I will go to see that woman immediately and apologize to her."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Pei Jinxiao raised his eyebrows, a sharp look flashed in his eyes, and then he regained his composure. He slowly stood up, walked to the door, and gently pushed open the wooden door of the Zen room.

Outside the door, a subordinate dressed in black knelt on one knee, waiting respectfully. Pei Jinxiao nodded slightly, motioned him to stand up, then walked into the depths of the Zen room, motioning his subordinate to follow.

In the meditation room, incense smoke curled up and wooden fish sounded. Pei Jinxiao sat on the meditation bed, his expression serious and his eyes sharp. The subordinate walked up to him cautiously and reported in a low voice: "Your Highness, the news of the Qin Mansion has been found out. Qin's eldest wife Sheng Yunrong returned to the Qin Mansion smoothly last night, but she was seriously injured."

Pei Jinxiao frowned slightly and asked, "What is the specific situation?"

The subordinate paused for a moment and replied, "After preliminary diagnosis and treatment, Madam Qin had a fractured right shoulder, two broken left ribs, and several knife wounds. However, after the doctor's careful treatment, her injuries have improved. The doctor said that Madam Qin needs to stay in bed for half a month."

When Pei Jinxiao heard this, his expression changed slightly and a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.

He was silent for a moment, then heaved a long sigh and said, "I was too harsh. I didn't expect the injury to be so serious."

The subordinate looked at Pei Jinxiao cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, although Madam Qin's injuries are serious, her vitality is very strong and she has now passed the critical period."

Pei Jinxiao nodded and asked, "How is she now?"

The subordinate replied: "Madam Qin is still in bed. Due to her serious injuries, she looks a little pale, but she is in good spirits.

Pei Jinxiao's eyes shone, and he asked impatiently: "Qin Moyuan, what is the situation now?"

The subordinate answered respectfully, "The young prince has lived in the East Courtyard since he was rescued by Madam Qin four years ago. But later, because Madam Qin misunderstood that he bullied her children, she gradually stopped paying attention to him. Although Madam Qin did not abuse him, the maids in the mansion secretly embezzled the silver and daily household expenses given to the young prince, causing him to live in poverty."

Pei Jinxiao frowned, his expression looking a little heavy: "I have been looking for this son all these years, but I didn't expect that he would live such a miserable life."

Tu Subo, who had been keeping silent, could not help but ask, "Mrs. Qin suddenly became nice to Qin Moyuan. What secret is hidden behind this?"

"Sir, this matter has to start from the beginning." The subordinate raised his head, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "Four years ago, Madam Qin misunderstood Qin Moyuan and thought he stole her property. In fact, that matter was planned by Sir Qin's mother-in-law, Old Madam Qin. Old Madam Qin wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Qin Moyuan so that Sir Qin could marry Ling Meng smoothly."

Tu Subo frowned and asked, "Then how did Madam Qin discover this secret?"

The subordinate sighed and said, "Recently, Madam Qin suddenly discovered that her husband, Lord Qin, was behaving strangely, so she secretly investigated. She found out that in order to marry Ling Meng, Lord Qin actually teamed up with Old Madam Qin to poison her. Madam Qin realized the sinister faces of the Qin family, and also knew that she had misunderstood Qin Moyuan four years ago."

Tu Subo pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Is what you said true? Did Madam Qin really find out that Lord Qin and Madam Qin poisoned her?"

The subordinate nodded, his expression serious: "My Lord, these are all my personal investigations, and they are absolutely true. Madam Qin is now treating Qin Moyuan better because she has realized the sinister faces of the Qin family."

Tu Subo picked up the teacup and said softly, "In order to marry his concubine Ling Meng, Lord Qin actually poisoned Madam Qin. This absurd behavior is really unbelievable. It is simply the behavior of a beast!"

Pei Jinxiao was silent for a while, then asked in a deep voice: "What is Mr. Qin's attitude?"

The subordinate smiled bitterly and said, "Master Qin's attitude has not changed. He is still hostile to Qin Moyuan. However, Madam Qin has made up her mind to protect Qin Moyuan no matter what."

Pei Jinxiao looked at his subordinates, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and asked: "How do you know all this?"

The subordinate lowered his head and said, "Sir, I have been lurking in the Qin Mansion for a long time and have a good relationship with the maid next to Madam Qin. She told me about this matter and hoped that I could help Qin Moyuan."

Pei Jinxiao paced for a while, stopped in front of his subordinate, and ordered in a cold voice: "Go to Qin's house and hand in a visiting card, on the pretext of investigation, and there must be no mistakes."

The subordinate was shocked and immediately accepted the order. Just as he was about to leave, Tu Subo beside him suddenly said, "Your Highness, I would also like to visit together. May I include my visiting card?"

Pei Jinxiao glanced at Tu Subo, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure: "Since Tu Su also wants to go, let's go together."

When the subordinates turned around and left, only Pei Jinxiao and Tu Subo were left in the meditation room.

In the Zen room, there was curling smoke and the sound of wooden fish, and there was a hint of solemnity in the tranquility.

Pei Jinxiao sat at the table, picked up a string of Buddhist beads, turned it gently, and asked slowly: "Tu Su, why do you also want to submit a visiting card to the Qin Mansion?"

Tu Subo smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Your Majesty, the young prince is now in the Qin Mansion. I just want to take this opportunity to test the truth and expose the true face of the Qin family."

Pei Jinxiao frowned, put down his Buddhist beads, and looked at him with a sharp gaze: "Probe the truth? Do you think it's so easy to investigate the Qin Mansion?"

Tu Subo restrained his smile and said seriously: "I know that the Qin Mansion is very important, but since the prince has decided to investigate, I will naturally follow the prince.

Pei Jinxiao looked at Tu Subo deeply, with a hint of approval in his eyes: "In that case, let's go together. However, you must not act rashly, and follow my arrangements."

Tu Subo nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will naturally act carefully."
