Chapter 165 That was All He could Do
At this time, Qiu Jinglan was explaining, "After I passed the provincial exam, I had hoped to study hard for several years and then go to the capital to take the imperial exam when I was sure of winning the first rank. At the same time, I could find an opportunity to be reunited with my family. However, my mother, who had not contacted me for eleven years, suddenly managed to send a message to me, asking me to go to Mount Dizi to pick up my sister. I was worried that something would happen to my mother, so I arranged people to go to Mount Dizi. I packed up and went to the capital ahead of time. In this way, I happened to be your disciple."
Xue Chang asked suspiciously, "Princess Ningyi came down the mountain by herself after the avalanche and was picked up by people of Prince's Mansion of Xihe? According to what you said, the people you sent should have arrived at Mount Dizi ahead of time. Why hadn't they met her?"
Qiu Jinglan said bitterly, "In fact, I don

Does your family think they are more important than the royal family?"If anyone else had been here, they would have kneeled on the ground and asked for her forgiveness. Yet Empress Jiang didn't even take it seriously. She saluted carelessly and asked with a smile, "Mother, you just threw words at me without explaining anything. I'm so confused! What happened?"Empress Dowager Gu had been fighting with her for years. They all knew each other too well.

She has been trying her martial skills on me all day and never saves face for me.
