Wei Ting sighed and said, “Actually, not long after Sister-in-law left, Big Brother returned. Big Brother has always felt very guilty about not rushing back earlier.”
Chu Feifeng hugged the account book tightly.
Wei Ting continued, “Dad and Second Brother are also alive.”
Chu Feifeng said in a daze, “Really?”
Wei Ting nodded.
Chu Feifeng’s throat moved, and her eyes were moist. “Then, are they… alright?”
Wei Ting said softly, “Dad and Sixth Brother should have already come to
Thousand Mountain Island. Eldest Brother and Second Brother went to the Western Jin first and will come over later. Sister-in-law can meet them personally.”
Chu Feifeng lowered her head. Wei Ting said, “Everyone misses Sister-in-law very much.” Chu Feifeng opened her mouth.
Suddenly, two maids walked over from the corridor.
“The Hundred Flowers Palace is really too much. They actually found their way to our Madam’s courtyard!”
“We’re upright and not afraid of shadows. Let them search!” “Eh? Didn’t that person come this way just now? Why is he gone?”
Chu Feifeng quickly pulled Wei Ting behind the cabinet.
A maid pushed open the door of the accounting room and saw Chu Feifeng tidying up the accounts at the desk. She smiled and asked, “Yunniang, did you see anyone coming this way?”
Chu Feifeng’s name on the island was Yunniang.
“Who is it?” Chu Feifeng asked.
The maidservant said, “I forgot that you don’t know anyone from the Hundred
Flowers Palace. It’s an unfamiliar man wearing a mask.”
Chu Feifeng shook her head calmly. “I didn’t see him.”
The maidservant exchanged a few more pleasantries with Chu Feifeng and left.
Chu Feifeng heaved a sigh of relief and walked behind the cabinet. She looked at Wei Ting nervously. “You pretended to be someone from the Hundred Flowers Palace? The Hundred Flowers Palace isn’t to be someone not to be trifled with. If they know, you’ll suffer.”
Wei Ting said, “I’m not pretending. I’m the Second Young Master of the Flower Palace now.”
Chu Feifeng looked confused.
Wei Ting looked outside and lowered his voice. “Time is tight, so I can’t tell you in detail. Sister-in-law, don’t worry about me. The Palace Lord treats me very well. On the other hand, Sister-in-law, don’t stay in the Heavenly Jade Hall anymore. Follow me back to the Hundred Flowers Palace.”
Chu Feifeng said, “I can’t leave yet. It wasn’t easy for me to find a clue. What happened back then might be related to the City Lord Manor. The Heavenly Jade Hall has a close relationship with the City Lord Manor and I would have opportunities to follow the Madam of the Hall Master into and out of the City Lord Manor.”
Wei Ting frowned and said, “It’s too dangerous.”
Chu Feifeng smiled and smoothed his furrowed brows. “The City Lord’s Madam thinks highly of me now. She can’t leave me for anything. I’ll be fine. Little Seven, you have to believe in Sister-in-law, understand?”
Sister-in-law had always had her own opinions. It was impossible to persuade her. It was also impossible to knock her out and take her away.
Wei Ting could only nod helplessly.
Chu Feifeng urged, “Alright, leave quickly.”
Wei Ting said, “Sister-in-law, if you want to contact me, look for Sect Master
Lu of the Fire Slaughter Sect.”
It was too difficult to move between the Hundred Flowers Palace and Heavenly Jade Hall, but no one was watching Lu Aotian’s territory.
Chu Feifeng was first shocked, then smiled in relief. “I knew it. Little Seven is very powerful. I’ll remember it.”
“Oh yes.”
Wei Ting suddenly remembered something. “Does Sister-in-law know Xiahou Yan and Wuyou? They know Sister-in-law’s ident.i.ty and even took your sachet.’
Chu Feifeng recalled, “Are you talking about someone called Fourth Master? When I first arrived on the island, I was under a woman’s curse and exposed my ident.i.ty. Later on, they threatened me to provide them with information about Heavenly Jade Hall. However, they haven’t come to look for me for a while. ”
Wei Ting heaved a sigh of relief. “Then it’s fine. They’re dead.”
The Palace Lord and Wei Ting returned to the front yard after searching.
Madam Ji said, “Palace Lord Yun, did you find anyone suspicious?”
The Palace Lord said coldly, “No.”
Ji Ming’s corridor said, “My Heavenly Jade Hall is innocent. Palace Lord Yun, do you have anything to say?”
The Palace Lord said casually, “Son, let’s go!”
Madam Ji said coldly, “Is my Heavenly Jade Hall a place where you can come and go as you please?”
The Palace Lord glanced at her. “Why? Do you want to attack? Can you beat
Madam Ji’s expression darkened.
Ji Minglou said, “Since the misunderstanding has been cleared, I won’t keep the two of you. Palace Lord Yun, please.”
“Hmph.”
The Palace Lord rolled her eyes and swaggered away with Wei Ting.
The Deputy Hall Master said unhappily, “Hall Master, why are you so indulgent toward them? She hasn’t even apologized and you’re letting them go?”
Ji Minglou placed his hands behind his back and frowned. “Someone must be sowing discord between the Heavenly Jade Hall and the Hundred Flowers
Palace. Now that Madam is about to give birth, it’s best for the Heavenly Jade
Hall not to cause unnecessary trouble.”
The Deputy Hall Master could not refute. “Yes.”
“Go down and recuperate. Madam, I still have something to deal with. I’ll leave first.”
After instructing the two of them, Ji Minglou left without looking back.
The Deputy Hall Master cupped his hands at Madam Ji and left.
Madam Ji looked at Ji Minglou’s departing back and then at Yun Shuang, who was gradually disappearing, with a trace of jealousy in her eyes.
After getting into the carriage, Yun Shuang was in a good mood.
She had long wanted to bring her son to the Heavenly Jade Hall to show off. She had had enough fun today.
Ling Yun looked at the refreshed Yun Shuang. “If I didn’t know, I would think you went to have fun.”
The Palace Lord waved her fan and said, “Of course, I went to have fun! You didn’t go when I asked you to! Are you envious?”
Ling Yun said, “Childish.”
Wei Ting thought of Ji Minglou’s att.i.tude towards his Mother Palace Lord and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Mother, that Ji Minglou…”
The Palace Lord said, “None of the Ji family is good. Don’t be fooled by his appearance.”
Wei Ting agreed obediently. “Got it, Mother.”
The Palace Lord was very satisfied. This was an obedient son, unlike a certain young brat who was rebellious!
She asked Wei Ting, “Did you see your sister-in-law?”
Wei Ting said, “I saw her. She’s a steward beside Madam Ji. She’s staying in the Heavenly Jade Hall to investigate the truth of the attack on the Wei family back then. ”
Ling Yun’s hand that was serving tea paused.
The Palace Lord was puzzled. “Is the Wei family’s death related to Heavenly
Jade Hall?”
Wei Ting said, “Sister-in-law said that the clues we’ve investigated are related to the City Lord Manor.”
Ling Yun lowered his eyes and continued to drink his tea.
The Palace Lord thought for a moment and said, “The Heavenly Jade Hall has close connections with the City Lord Manor. It’s indeed easier to approach the City Lord Manor if she stays there. Tell her to be careful. If she’s discovered, she has to come to the Hundred Flowers Palace quickly.”
The Hundred Flowers Palace didn’t have much contact with the City Lord Manor. It was very difficult to investigate the City Lord Manor, but it was still possible to protect one person.
Wei Ting said sincerely, “Thank you, Mother.”
Hundred Flowers Palace waved her hand. “It’s just a small matter.”
Ling Yun drank his tea and did not speak from the beginning to the end.
The carriage traveled for a while.
Wei Ting said to the Palace Lord, “Mother, I want to walk around the streets with Big Brother later. Are you with us, or…”
The immortal beauty fell asleep without any care for her image and began to snore.
Wei Ting was speechless.
Wei Ting asked the coachman to send the Palace Lord back to the Hundred Flowers Palace while he pulled him out of the carriage. Ling Yun looked impatient. “What are you doing now?” Wei Ting said, “Going to the Fire Slaughter Sect.”
“I’m not going!”
“Put me down!”
Wei Ting carried his brother to the Fire Slaughter Sect.
Ling Yun’s blood rushed to his head. When he reached the door, his face was red.
Lu Aotian walked out and looked at Wei Ting before looking at Ling Yun. “Eh, why are you so shy?”
Ling Yun, who wanted to strike Wei Ting to death, was speechless.
Wei Ting told him that his sister-in-law would come to contact him.
Lu Aotian’s tiger body trembled. “No way. If you contact through me and are discovered by the Heavenly Jade Hall, I’ll be wiped out!”
Wei Ting said, “A thousand taels.”
Lu Aotian said, “Fortune comes from danger!”
Wei Ting gestured at Ling Yun. “Brother, give me money.”
Ling Yun was dumbfounded..
