Xuan Mingye told Dong Minghuo about what happened on the night of the full moon. Dong Minghuo's eyes lit up after hearing it, and he was more anxious than anyone else to know where this person was.
“It’s a pity that this woman suddenly disappeared. I guess she’s either in the city or outside the city gate. By the way, take a look at this silk handkerchief?” Xuan Mingye took out the white silk handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to Dong Minghuo.
The scarf was mostly blank except for a few inconspicuous red flowers at the bottom, hastily embroidered with a few strokes. And these flowers were rather rare.
“This flower…” He looked at Xuan Mingye with a puzzled expression.
"This is no ordinary thing. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't quite place it. It seems this woman is indeed extraordinary." Xuan Mingye murmured to himself, his brows furrowing.
...
After taking the pill, Qian Youxue clearly felt her body becoming stronger rapidly. Not only could she use her cultivation techniques more easily, but her speed in refining medicine also gradually increased.
She sat in the courtyard, basking in the sun and enjoying its warmth. She closed her eyes, her mind replaying the unsolved techniques, pondering how to advance further.
"Miss, Miss, something terrible has happened!" Lianxin rushed in from the doorway, breathless. Qian Youxue sensed something was wrong as soon as she heard the voice. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw that annoying figure walking towards them.
Besides Aunt Liu and Qian Yingxue, there was also Granny Zhang, Aunt Liu's attendant. Granny Zhang was quite a formidable woman, and she often gave Qian Yingxue bad ideas to torment the original owner of this body. Seeing what Aunt Liu was holding, Qian Youxue guessed what it was.
Hmph!
Aunt Liu deliberately cleared her throat and gave Qian Youxue a haughty look.
Qian Youxue pretended not to see it. If it were before, she would have stepped forward in fear to pay her respects. But according to etiquette, she was the eldest daughter of the Qian family, while her aunt was just a servant. How could this woman accept such a courtesy?
Seeing Qian Youxue standing there motionless, Qian Yingxue's face immediately darkened: "You have no manners, you don't even know how to behave properly. Don't embarrass the Qian family when you enter the palace."
Perhaps because she had a skill for self-defense, Qian Youxue was much more confident than before. After listening, she covered her mouth and laughed: "I heard that Fourth Sister has been learning etiquette from the nanny these past few days. Doesn't she know that the only proper daughters should bow to Mother? My mother is still alive, and Fourth Sister is cursing her like this. I really want to know who taught her such etiquette?"
"I didn't, you're talking nonsense. The nanny who taught me etiquette was..." Qian Yingxue was about to tell Qian Youxue that the nanny who taught her etiquette was invited from Consort Liu's palace.
In the end, Aunt Liu gave her a cold glare, and she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. Her face turned red, and she stood angrily next to Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu looked Qian Youxue up and down. Ever since the fourth prince woke her up, Qian Youxue's personality had changed a lot. And today, she felt that this brat seemed even more different. She deliberately asked, "Why haven't I seen the eldest young lady pay her respects to the old lady these past few days?"
What's it to you!
While thinking this to herself, Qian Youxue maintained her usual demeanor and said calmly, "After last time, Youxue's health has not been very good. Grandmother said that she is going to the palace in a few days, and told Youxue to rest well these days and not to go to pay her respects."
