"Oh? What is making you so happy?" Ice Luan Spirit Bird had left and Huang Bei Yue became more at ease.
She had found it surprising as to how happy Dong Ling was.
Dong Ling covered her mouth and said in a small voice: "When I was on my way back, I saw Pei Xiang. Concubine Qin had vented her bad temper at her!"
"Why was Concubine Qin in a bad temper?"
Dong Ling smiled: "It's due to Princess Hong Ling's birthday banquet from yesterday. Prime Minister Qi had gotten angry!"
Yesterday Xiao Yun had said those words in front of the young misses and masters which soon spread out towards the noble ladies in the imperial capital. Everyone had said that those who are not in the same family won't go in the same door. How the mother was like, the daughter naturally will be like that too.
And how the young sister was like, will the older sister be any better off?
The wife of Ping Bei Hou was a famous and dignified person ever since she was a child. After she was married to Ping Bei Hou, she had taught her ways to her child. She was a model among the noble ladies.
This time, because of a scandal that had happened in the past regarding her second sister, her reputation was tainted. How could she be happy?
Princess Hong Ling was also influenced by Xiao Rou's improper behavior, which led her to be the object of private discussions among the young misses. Her development with the third prince was originally pretty good yet after yesterday, the third prince was cold and indifferent towards her.
Princess Hong Ling had run to the wife of Ping Bei Hou and cried. It had happened that the wife of Ping Bei Hou was also unsatisfied so she got angry and told this problem to the wife of the Prime Minister.
The wife of Ping Bei Yue was the daughter of the wife of the Prime Minister. The wife of the Prime Minister and the mother of Concubine Qin had strived for favoritism over the years which led the prefecture to be unpeaceful. Now due to this situation, the wife of the prime minister now had something to use against her.
That night, the wife of the Prime Minister had a pillow talk with Prime Minister Qi. After that, Prime Minister Qi was infuriated!
His daughter's reputation and his favorite granddaughter's future, Concubine Qi and Xiao You would never catch up with these two people's status in Prime Minister Qi's heart.
This morning, Concubine Qin had made servants go to the Prime Minister's Prefecture to send gifts. Originally it was large quantities of top-notch blood swallow that she had bought at an expensive price. She wanted to send some to her mother and naturally, she also wanted to please the wife of Prime Minister Qi and the wife of Ping Bei Hou. So she had sent some over to them too.
Who knew that the servant had just entered the door of Prime Minister's Prefecture when they had met Prime Minister Qi who had just got off the royal court. Prime minister Qi was in a fit of anger at that moment and had seen that it was a servant sent by Concubine Qin. He automatically told people to kick them out.
The servant who had sent the gift wasn't smart. They had mumbled a few sentences under their breath and it was heard by Prime Minister Qi. Under his wrath, he had let his people beat the servant half to death. Then he commanded the people that from now on, anyone that is from Concubine Qin's place wouldn't be allowed in the prefecture at all!
That servant was carried back to Princess Zhang's Prefecture and he reported back to Concubine Qin. Concubine Qi had turned pale in that instant. She had fainted for a while and after she had woken up, she kept crying as tears fell down her face. She had relieved her bad temper by yelling at servants.
This time, it was impossible to count on Prime Minister Qi to save Xiao Zhong Qi.
Prime Minister Qi was someone who values his reputation. When she had made a mistake in the past, Prime Minister Qi had kicked her out the family door. After all these years, that anger had gradually diminished. Plus, now that she slowly had some status in Princess Zhang's Prefecture, Prime Minister Qi had slightly accepted her and her two children.
But who knew that that incident was scooped out by someone again!
Xiao Rou cried and explained what had happened yesterday at Prime Minister's Prefecture. Concubine Qin was so mad that her eyes had protruded out.
What a good Xiao Yun! What a good Concubine Xue!
After Huang Bei Yue had heard everything, she had held onto her stomach and laughed very hard.
"Concubine Xue and Xiao Yun really do have some skills. Just a couple of words and Concubine Qin had lost their support from the Prime Minister's prefecture."

"Since Concubine Qin doesn't have Prime Minister Qi's help, she could only come here and beg young miss ah!" Dong Ling laughed happily. All these years, she had waited to watch as Concubine Qin and Xue lose their powers. It would be best if they had received retribution.
"It won't work out even if they beg me. If Xiao Zhong Qi didn't hand the Lotus Flame Furnace over, would Anguo Gong let him go?" Huang Bei Yue embraced the quilt and a strand of black hair fell onto it. It shined the way above average silk would've. It showed off the white and delicate skin tone on her face.
After she had finished wiping the jadeite liquid on her wounds, the wounds that weren't so deep began to slowly heal. Now, there weren't any visible traces.
"The eldest young master is definitely going to be a scapegoat. He has no choice!" Dong ling was extremely joyful. Now that she saw these people had received retribution, she was happier than anyone else!
This situation, no matter how hard Anguo Gong tries to check, they won't be able to check it to their side. They would be able to play them to death without leaving any traces!
The two people had sat and chatted when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"At this time, who would be coming?" Dong Ling was suspicious but she went and opened the door. "Fourth young miss, why are you here?"
"Dong Ling, is third sister here?" Xiao Rou's voice seemed to be anxious. It looked like what happened this morning in Prime Minister's Prefecture had given her too much of a shock.
She had thought that since the Prime Minister's Prefecture had supported them in the past, they didn't need to be worried about anything. But now, even her grandfather didn't support them anymore. Her brother had caused trouble and her mother was so indecent. The only person she could have begged at this time was her third sister who always had a kind heart.
"We were affected by the cold last night and couldn't sleep. We had just been able to sleep right now." Dong Ling explained in a kind voice.
Xiao Rou was immediately worried: "Then what do I do? Can I wait here until the second sister wakes up?"
Dong Ling faintly smiled: "Fourth young miss, don't you have to go to college? Our young miss probably can't go today."
"I don't want to go!" Xiao Rou suddenly frightenedly shook her head. "I, I'm not going to the college…"
"What happened?" Dong Ling was smart. As soon as she had heard Xiao Rou's terrified tone, she knew something bad had happened.
Xiao Rou snucked her nose in, the voice seemed as though she would have cried at any moment. "Now anyone in this prefecture, whoever comes out they would die ah! Anguo Gong didn't dare to go to Ling Yang College to cause troubles so he ordered people to surround our prefecture. If they saw someone that left the prefecture, they won't show any mercy!"
"When did this start?" Dong Ling let out a gasp. When she left the prefecture, everything was fine. How come just a while later, this had happened?
"It happened just before. That Xue Che seemed to have woken up. He had placed the blame on my brother for why he was punished by the Honorable Spirit. He said he will come here for revenge! Father had come back from the royal court but was stuck on the road home. He was threatened by people in Anguo Gong's Prefecture."
Dong Ling was secretly happy. Anguo Gong had lost the Lotus Flame Furnace so obviously he wouldn't have let this go! He would have used any means to get it back.
She was ecstatic in her heart but on the surface, Dong Ling had scrunched her eyebrows and replied: "But if this was the case, fourth young miss, there is no point in finding our young miss ah. Our young miss is weak and sick since childhood and she doesn't have any power. There is nothing she can do ah."
"No. Now in Princess Zhang's prefecture, they are only afraid of third sister ah!" Xiao Rou immediately explained her plan. "Ever since last time when the Emperor got mad at the palace banquet, everyone knew how much the Emperor values third sister. If I go out with third sister then I'll definitely be safe."
Dong Ling laughed coldly in her heart. Now that she knew how good young miss actually is, she would shamelessly come here and considered herself sisters with the young miss. Did she forget how she had bullied the young miss before?
