Chapter 939
Qu Dun took the handkerchief and casually wiped his face a couple of times.
Seeing that he was still not in a good mood, Huo Zhao had someone bring up another bowl of buttermilk: "Don't think too much. After all, you are just a child. There are many things that are beyond your control."
Qu Dun sniffed: "But if I hadn't been stupid enough to steal your jar of honey back then, would my sister have never been sent to the palace?"
Huo Zhao pursed his lips.
It's hard to say.
Now it seems that the key probably wasn't in that jar of honey.
"Don't think about it too much," Huo Zhao said. "This has nothing to do with you."
"How could it have nothing to do with me!" Qu Dun suddenly became agitated. "If it weren't for me, if it weren't for me! My sister wouldn't have been sent to the palace!"
Huo Zhao felt a headache coming on as he looked at him.
Just then, a deep, cold voice rang out: "What's the use of Young Master Qu throwing a tantrum here?"
Huo Zhao turned his head and saw Shen Rang walking towards him.
No one knows how long he waited or what he heard, but in any case, when Huo Zhao saw Shen Rang, it was as if he had seen a savior.
Shen Rang stepped forward to Huo Zhao's side, then turned to Qu Dun: "If Young Master Qu is indignant, he can go home and make a scene with Madam Qu. Of course, it would be best to keep a low profile and bide his time. If you can't do that, but still want to make a scene to show that you care about Consort Xi, then making a scene here is fine."
"What did you say?!"
Qu Dun suddenly stood up and stared straight at Shen Rang.
Unfortunately, he is much thinner than before, and his height is barely past Shen Rang's waist. Although his expression is on point, his aura is really lacking.
"You mean I'm putting on an act?!"
“If not, then Young Master Qu should go back to where he came from. No one in the Prince’s Mansion has wronged your sister.”
Shen Rang's voice was icy, and his expression was completely indifferent.
Qu Dun gritted his teeth.
He was certainly not putting on an act!
He only has one older sister, Qu Ling. Since childhood, Qu Ling has always given him the best of everything. How could he possibly pretend?!
Qu Dun gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Rang: "Young Master Shen, you are smart. You have been smart since you were a child. Can you tell me how to be as smart as you, enter the officialdom so quickly, and be able to make your own decisions so quickly?"
He wanted to become independent as soon as possible.
If he could make the decision himself sooner, wouldn't it be possible to bring Qu Ling out of the palace and let her live her original life?
Qu Dun didn't know.
But he wanted to give it a try.
Shen Rang raised an eyebrow: "Young Master Qu has such ambitions? But it's unlikely."
His intelligence from a young age was one aspect, but more importantly, he was hardworking.
I get up before dawn every day and don't rest until late at night, sleeping only a few hours a day.
That's how he grew up.
Qu Dun gritted his teeth: "It's possible! Just tell me, whether I can do it or not is my own business!"
"Then go to school."
Shen Rang knew that this young master Qu had always been lazy and cunning when it came to reading, and probably hadn't had a proper education at all.
"Is this okay?"
"That's fine."
So Qu Dun didn't delay any longer and strode forward.
Looking at his small figure, Huo Zhao felt a pang of pity: "Do you think Madam Qu knows that Young Master Qu has come all this way?"
