After a peaceful month, as the Qingming Festival approached, all the mansions were preparing for the festival. News came from the Prince Li's mansion that Golan had been attacked.
Upon hearing this, Qingyan felt a prickling sensation; Golan had actually come up with the most direct solution.
Su Lan inquired about the news and found out that Golan asked the Second Prince not to meet with that person again, saying that during the Qingming Festival, most people spend it with their families.
As a result, the other party directly hit Golan. Originally, the Prince Li's wife and the Crown Prince's wife joined forces to suppress the situation, but the servants couldn't stand it anymore. Golan was almost beaten to death. Now, these two women, mother and daughter-in-law, still want to cover up the truth.
"Sulan, prepare the carriage, we're going to Prince Li's residence!" Qingyan stood up, went straight into the inner chamber, and changed into the clothes of a royal consort.
A moment later, Qingyan sat in the carriage, feeling somewhat anxious. How was Golan's injury?
Before leaving the residence, Qingyan specifically asked someone to summon the imperial physician, who must have understood her meaning.
Prince Li was in the flower hall, furious with his wife. Golan was injured and was rushed to be treated. However, instead of calling a doctor, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tried to take the opportunity to drug Golan.
"You two have really messed things up this time. I hope Fourth Prince's wife won't come over!" Prince Li was furious. Lately, other officials had caused him no shortage of trouble.
What? !
"If the Fourth Princess Consort comes, wouldn't that be meddling in other people's business? The Golan clan has already been expelled." The Princess Consort of Prince Li didn't believe Qingyan was coming back at all, and still spoke shamelessly.
Prince Li was enraged, his eyes turning red as he glared at his wife.
"Master, Princess Consort, the Fourth Princess Consort has arrived with her guards!" said the steward of Prince Li's residence.
The primary consort looked at Prince Li in surprise after hearing the steward's words.
"Don't be surprised, they will definitely protect their own. The more wronged we sound, the easier it will be to handle this!" Prince Li instructed his wife.
"What grievance?" Qingyan stepped directly into the main hall.
The three of them quickly got up and prepared to pay their respects to Qingyan.
Qingyan turned slightly to the side: "I dare not ask the Prince, the Prince's wife, and the Heir Apparent's wife to pay their respects, otherwise, it would be only right for me to be beaten to death here!"
At that moment, Qingyan's clear voice came from her mouth, and Prince Li secretly thought that something was wrong.
"Where is Golan? I've been sending her to the mansion to watch plays these past few days, but she keeps saying she's not feeling well. I had some free time today, so I brought Imperial Physician Yuan over to examine her!" Qingyan said directly.
Prince Li's back was soaked with cold sweat. Imperial Physician Yuan was one of His Majesty's men, and it was only because of the twins, Yin and Qingyan, that they could freely summon Imperial Physician Yuan.
"No need, Golan's body is already recovering!" The Crown Princess was the first to react and quickly begged for mercy.
Qingyan completely ignored her, only looking at Prince Li and repeatedly demanding to see Golan's figure.
Prince Li realized that Qingyan could easily deflect all his excuses, and in the end, he nodded helplessly.
The steward led Qingyan to Golan's courtyard. Qingyan squinted, surprised that Prince Li had left his youngest daughter-in-law in such a desolate place.
So who actually lives in the new house?
"Sulan, go and see who's living in the new house!" Qingyan went in first and saw that the furnishings inside were very simple.
Golan lay on the bed, her fever rising because her injuries hadn't been treated in time.
"Imperial Physician Yuan, come here quickly!" Qingyan touched Golan's forehead and inwardly cursed.
When Imperial Physician Yuan arrived, he quickly took Golan's pulse and discovered that his injuries were severe and he had not received proper treatment. If he had arrived a few days later, Golan might have died.
Damn it!
Qingyan was furious. These people clearly didn't take her seriously. Ulanara's actions were so obvious, yet Golan was still being treated so cruelly.
"Never mind, Bayan, have someone carry Golan, let's go to the palace!" Qingyan can't handle this on his own, this matter has gotten a bit out of hand.
"!" Everyone sprang into action, and the guards quickly feigned illness, surrounding the courtyard to prevent any servant from filing a complaint.
Bayan placed Golan in the carriage, and Qingyan helped Sulan into the carriage as well.
"If anyone from Prince Li's residence dares to search, just barge in!" Qingyan wasn't going to give Prince Li's residence any face.
Golan was injured, and there wasn't even a single person to take care of him.
"The maids who accompanied Golan in her dowry?" Qingyan suddenly remembered, where did those people go?
“A few days ago, Golan was beaten, and her maids were all beaten to death by the Crown Princess, supposedly for making a mistake. I think it was to cover up the truth.”
"Fourth Princess Consort, are you leaving already?" Upon receiving the news, the primary princess consort personally stood in front of the carriage, hoping that Qingyan would not take Golan with him when he left.
"Hmm, move aside, I have other matters to attend to!" Qingyan said directly with a gloomy face.
"You may leave, but your carriage needs to be changed; it's a bit dirty!" The primary consort offered a lame excuse.
"What?! Does the Princess Consort of Prince Li want to imprison me? Or find a reason to kill me and say that I disappeared innocently?" Qingyan's imagination ran wild as he pondered how he would die.
The primary wife trembled slightly: "Fourth wife, you're joking! How could we dare to do such a thing?!"
"You don't dare? I think you're quite bold. Alright, get out of the way. Fourth Master is still waiting for me outside!" Qingyan said impatiently.
"Fourth Princess Consort, I must make sure your sister-in-law isn't in your carriage." The Crown Princess waved her hand, and a group of guards appeared in everyone's sight.
"As expected of the Prince Li's mansion, they don't care about these things at all. Even the prince's wife can decide his fate at will!" Qingyan kept the curtain closed as she listened to the two women's tirade.
The Princess Consort of Prince Li and the Crown Prince's Consort exchanged a glance; these words were a bit too bold.
"Your Majesty, I dare not!" the two quickly replied.
"Get out of the way!" Qingyan shouted sternly.
The three remained locked in this stalemate. Qingyan noticed that Golan's face was somewhat pale and became extremely anxious. She glanced at Sulan and asked her to help Golan to the chaise lounge in the bathroom to hide.
"Open the carriage curtain, move the screen aside, and let Prince Li's wife and the Crown Prince's wife search the carriage!" Qingyan said the last two words.
The curtain was slowly opened, and Qingyan, dressed in a bright red Fujin casual dress, sat upright at the kang table.
"You two should let me search the place. If you let the guards search, I'll kill myself right here in your mansion!" Qingyan coldly stared at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, behind whom stood a large number of guards.
Qingyan's face was half-veiled, and she exuded a cold aura, making the guards dare not look up easily.
"This servant wouldn't dare!" The Princess Consort of Prince Li was terrified. Qingyan absolutely could not be allowed to have any problems, otherwise, Fei Yanggu would definitely not let her off the hook.
Furthermore, with the news of Qingyan's search spreading, the Prince Li's residence is about to become a laughing stock.
"Don't delay me, I need to get going. Didn't you decide to search?" Qingyan said, watching the exchange between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Madam, if you have something to attend to, you can change to another carriage!" the primary wife said directly.
