Chapter 45 Strived for Favor
The snow stopped in the afternoon on this day, and the thin winter sunlight transmitted slight warmth to people on the ground.
Qiu Yelan went to Cuiwei Pavilion with a sour face. As soon as she entered, she saw Deng Yi frowning and sitting under the window, reading.
"Well, aren't you here to learn martial arts? Why are you reviewing books?" Qiu Yelan was surprised.
Deng Yi glanced at her, and frowned even more, "Why are you here?"
"I come to guide you and give some advice." Qiu Yelan squeezed her hands, and knuckles made some crisp sounds, "But you are loafing on the job!"
"The day after tomorrow is the time for uncle to appraise my study, so I will return to Prince's Mansion of Guangyang," Deng Yi enviously glanced at her little white hands, but not for their good looks. Instead, he envied the great power within them, "I've practiced squatting for these days, so I have to take time reviewing."

The white-beard imperial doctor frowned with dignified complexion.Ruan Qingyan and Qiu Yelan were frightened to disturb him, so they held their breath aside. They even didn't have time to entertain Jiang Yashuang who brought this old imperial doctor.It took a long time for the old imperial doctor to loosen his grip and frowned, "Not good."Ruan Qingyan and Qiu Yelan's hearts suddenly sank!Fortunately, Jiang Yashuang asked calmly, "Can you cure him?""This time I can. But I'm not sure if it happens again." The old imperial doctor stroked his long beard. Although his complexion was dignified, Qiu Yelan discovered that he was a bit upset.Ruan Qingyan asked cautiously, "Imperial doctor, my grandfather's disease...?""It's difficult to cure him by medicine because he is old." The old imperial doctor sighed, "Especially his body has accumulated countless internal injuries since he has been engag

Why embarrassing me so soon? What I said was true!Am I a jinx so that whoever I praise, that person gets bad luck?Qiu Yelan almost lost her breath!Seeing Jiang Yashuang was looking at her with a half-smile, she got a quick wit and said, "Look, I told you that my cousin never wanted to take any notice of these girls! It's all Young Earl Ling's fault that he let them know his address, so they come here every day for my cousin! If he really cared about them, he wouldn't have sent me to tell them to leave."Jiang Yashuang reminded her kindly, "A servant said it was the butler who told you to ask them to leave.""Right! When Young Earl Ling is not here, my cousin doesn't care about Hua Shenshen or Hua Qianqian. All the people here know that. The butler can decide directly to drive her off without telling my cousin!" Qiu Yelan tried hard to describe Ruan Qingyan as one who "went to the brothel from time to time for necess

“My official mother and brother of my former family before I was adopted by Ruan Family are found. And they are being sent to the city secretly?” Ruan Qingyan said frowning, “Hua said so?”Qiu Yelan nodded, “She also said that it was because Empress Dowager Gu’s clique had failed a few times trying to rob Lian Family’s letter which was about old Princess of Xihe. Then someone stumbled on the idea of going after you.”Ruan Qianyan sneered, “Going after me? Do I look like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered?”“Cousin, did you talk to your family before you were adopted by Ruan Family?” Qiu Yelan muttered to herself, “According to Hua Shenshen, your official mother and brother were about to say that you abandoned your original status and ancestral hall in order to become the young master of General’s Mansion….”She had to say that this move of Empress Dowager Gu’s clique was very diabolic!Abandoning one’s ancestral hall was

The day when Ruan Qingyan took the exam came quickly. These days, nothing happened. So, the way he went to the examination place was thought to be dangerous, where he had to kill ten people when he took one pace.... But after Ruan Qingyan went in, everything around was as usual."Do they want to strike in the examination hall?" Qiu Yelan guessed in her heart while leaning on the window of the carriage and looked at the crowd that had scattered.Dongran shook her head and said, "This is impossible. Xue Xiang won't let this thing happen." Then her voice lowered, "Even the Empress Dowager cannot offend scholars."Qiu Yelan also agreed since the imperial examination was the foundation of the country. Even if the Empress Dowager's Party did not care about one or two talented scholars, they had to prevent the Empress from deceiving."It turns out that our nervousness these days is in vain!" Qiu Yelan wiped her cold sweat an

Mrs. Pang smiled and said meaningfully, "Your Grace, the point is not who I am, but do you really believe what in the letter?"Qiu Yelan glanced coldly at her and then read the letter again. In fact, there was only one sentence on it, "There is a two-inch scar under Pang Lu's left rib."— As in common sense, this kind of private physical features could only be known by close family members!For Ruan Qingyan, who just finished mourning period for Aunt and had a seriously ill grandfather at home, it would be better to admit that Mrs. Pang as his former official mother than admitting that he was mingling with people like Hua Shenshen for these days!"She's utilizing cousin's prospect to force me to surrender!" Qiu Yelan was anxious and angry, "People in Jing City are not familiar with cousin, so if Mrs. Pang could tell his personal body features but tell some other lies, no one else could be able to make any doubt. If we want to overt

"Help my cousin on the carriage!" Qiu Yelan held her handkerchief tightly and ordered loudly, "Call for a doctor! Hurry up!""Wait!" Qiu Family's men saw that Ruan Qingyan was about to be lifted on the carriage. If he went back to General's Mansion and completely covered up the old scar with the new scar in this attack, the threat letter would be useless.Li Gui pushed Mrs. Pang out and Mrs. Pang quickly understood it. She grabbed Ruan Qingyan's sleeve at once and said, "My poor son! I came all the way from the south to see you, but you were injured by that bad guy before we meet.... If you died, how should your brother and I tell your father when we meet him in the underworld...."At this time, there was a way out for the carriage to send Ruan Qingyan to the doctor, but the watching crowd was still huge. Seeing Mrs. Pang wept, Qiu Yelan grabbed Mrs. Pang's chignon and slapped her so hard that she became silent right away with half her face swe

Li Gui’s face twitched for a bit. But he calmed down immediately. He gave Qiu Yelan a fist and palm salute and said, “Commandery Princess Ningyi, this was a misunderstanding! Although I’m related to Pang Family remotely, I have never seen Pang Lu before. I didn’t know that they had the wrong person. However, the purpose of Pang Biao and his mother coming to the city really is looking for Pang Lu. They definitely didn’t collude with the person who stabbed Young Master Ruan.”Another staff of Qiu Family Zhao Huairen who came with him also said at this point, “We are the staff of the Censor. We both have titles and are well educated. How could we indulge our relatives to commit a crime? We really just had the wrong person today.”“Don’t tell me this,” Qiu Yelan realized that they wanted to turn big problems into small ones and make small ones disappear. But she surely wouldn’t agree so easily. She sneered, “Li Gui, you brought them to us with certainty back th
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 53 Another Debate on Imperial Court!
The next day when assembled on the Imperial Court, the Empress party showed the handwritten letter of old Princess of Xihe, which was preserved by Lian Family. After comparing it with Ruan Qingyan's letter and found both exactly consistent with each other, all people of their party then were full of momentum!However, Empress Dowager Gu's party failed to obtain Lian Family's preserved letter first, and then they again failed to put pressure on Qiu Yelan with the accuse of Ruan Qingyan's origins. So, they were also well prepared to counterattack on the battlefield.Once after old Princess's personal letters were checked and confirmed, Qiu Mengmin was "frightenedly and angrily" but still firmly claimed that although he was not allowed to accompany the dying old Princess of Xihe, he was still allowed by the old Princess to take Madame Lu back to fulfill his filial duty, and these words were personally conveyed by Mrs. Guan and Dongyao!Although th
