Chapter 35: Sowing Discord

  "Hey, what are you still doing here? Hurry up and go ask about Qin's medicinal pill. If it's done, bring it over quickly, don't waste any more time on the road." Yu Chang also smiled, his face looking relieved as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

  The young girl seems a bit too young, but since she's on par with Master Qingchen, she must be quite capable.

  "This alchemy is indeed a matter of great effort and spiritual power, two days' time to refine two high-grade elixirs, it's not easy... If the elixir is successfully refined later, you can run errands for your young master and gain some extra time." Qingchen Master also smiled in agreement.

  The sparkle in Jian Yu's eyes dimmed slightly, and the smile at the corner of his lips quietly disappeared.

  Xiong Xiao and several others shut their mouths with a look of regret on their faces.

  "What's wrong?" Yu Zhang asked with a slight frown.

  "We... we don't know where Qin'niang lives." Yi Gu Yun pursed his thin lips, opening his mouth in defeat under the sharp gaze of Yu Changlao.

  "What? This is how you do things?" Elder Yu's anger finally erupted as he sternly questioned the newcomer.

  Watching Jian Yuyan about to break out in poison, only a few hours left until the hour of Hai, and the only person who can detoxify, they don't even know where he is, let alone serving him well, it's simply unreasonable!

  Qin Luo Yi was also helpless.

  In order to get that Fu Lu Da Quan, and the jade slip for refining high-level Fu Lu, she didn't dare to slack off. The next day, she spent the whole day in her cultivation room - actually, it was the space inside the Jade Hand Ring.

  The seventh-grade Scarlet Fire Pill and the sixth-grade Meltbone Pill, which might be of high grade for others, were difficult to refine and might even have been wasted. For her, they didn't count as much. The two pills took her only a few hours to refine, and when she finished, it was still daylight.

  Originally wanted to rush to deliver it to someone - but just as I was about to leave the house, I happened to run into Xie Ruyan who had come to Yingxue Garden.

  Xie Ruyan's beautiful face was filled with joy that couldn't be concealed, and she pulled her hand to head towards the main house of the Wang estate. As they walked, she said: "Yi'er, your wedding dress is already made, quickly go with your mother to try it on. If there are any unsuitable places, change them early."

  As soon as she entered the main house, a group of old women came to greet her and helped her put on one by one the intricate and exquisite red wedding dresses.

  Qin Luo's clothes were instantly submerged in a sea of red... taking off and putting on, trying this and that, it took half an hour to try them all out!

  Her smiling face fell, and she wanted to tell them that there was no need for such trouble. After all, she would not wear this wedding dress, and she would not marry the third prince who was perfect in their eyes without a single flaw.

  But looking at Xiāng Yǔyān who was excited and busy, with a satisfied smile that couldn't be hidden from the corner of her mouth, she couldn't say this.

  It wasn't until after dinner that they returned to Yingxue Garden, which was already two hours later.

  The sky had already darkened, and the guards outside the palace were even stricter. Moreover, she didn't want to move herself, so she put off today's plan, thinking that there was still tomorrow anyway.

  The next day, before she had a chance to go out, Qin Luohan unexpectedly invited Meng Wanqing and Yun Xueluo to his mansion, saying that he was very sorry for the incident where his maid had pushed them into the water, and wanted to personally cook a meal to apologize. Then, he came over in person to invite her to Quanxiang Garden as well.

  However, when she arrived at the Quixia Garden, she unexpectedly saw Chu Yuxiu's cousin Du Yudie, and instinctively felt that these women were not up to any good.

  As expected, when introducing them, Qin Luo Die casually mentioned that Du Yu Die was Chu Yi Xiu's cousin.

  Qin Luo's clothes were light and elegant.

  Her seat was arranged right opposite Du Yucui's, no need to deliberately look for her, just a slight lift of the head and she could see Du Yucui across from her.

  Unlike the weak willow in the wind two days ago, Du Yuxiang came today with obvious intention to dress up, wearing a delicate and intricate sea pink cloud patterned pleated skirt, with gold pearls on her head, blue sapphire earrings swaying back and forth, her pretty face smiling charmingly.

  She sat there proudly, her entire being exuding both the freshness of a young girl and the nobility and elegance unique to women from aristocratic families. With her chin slightly raised, her dark eyes occasionally flashed with disdain and jealousy from beneath her veil, and a hint of contempt and scorn flickered at the bottom of her eyes.

  A thought flashed through her mind, and thinking back to the intimate appearance of Xianlingfang and Chuyi's repair before, it was not difficult to guess that this Du Yuzhe was probably a few points meaningful to Chuyi.

  Older male cousin

  Cousin sister...

  Haha, it's really interesting!

  Qin Luo's lips curved into a radiant smile with a different meaning under her veil.

  Looking at her smiling eyes, Qin Luohan's heart was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

  Meng Wanjing's reaction to Qin Luoyi was also quite unexpected. Thinking back to the time in Wangheting, she had been implicated by Qin Luoyi, first being splashed with hot tea and then falling into the lotus flower pond, her embarrassing appearance had even been seen by the Third Prince...

  The more I think about it, the more unwilling I am. With a flash of her eyes, she exchanged a strange glance with Yun Xiangruo, and the two of them affectionately pulled Du Yuxian, giggling and intentionally or unintentionally shifting the topic to the Third Prince.

  Of course, it's natural to say how much the third prince loves and likes his cousin, how they envy her for having such a brother... Then, as if Qin Luoyi was an invisible person, they pretended to joke, saying that if it weren't for the emperor's arranged marriage, the third prince and Du Gongzhu would be a match made in heaven, a perfect couple with feelings for each other.

  Du Yucui was also a clever person, with a flash of her eyes, she seemed to smile and looked at Qin Luoyi with a hint of shyness, but in fact, she was very pleased to take the opportunity to say many interesting stories about the Third Prince that few people knew, of course, among the main characters of these interesting stories, there was naturally one of her...

  The room was filled with silvery laughter and giggles.

  Qin Luohan's gaze had always been paying attention to his own sister.

  She listened with a smile all along, as if they were talking about someone unrelated to her fiancé, the Third Prince.

  Her hand, hanging by her side, clenched into a fist as she leaned in close to her sister's ear and whispered: "Sister, don't be angry. Although she has a childhood sweetheart relationship with the Third Prince, it is you who will marry him, an imperial decree that no one can change. Even if the Third Prince likes her more, in the future you will still be the official wife and she will just be a concubine, never able to surpass you! Don't bother arguing with her anymore..."

  Qin Luo's clothes fluttered slightly as she smiled faintly, and a sharp light flashed across her phoenix-like eyes. Was she trying to persuade her not to bother with Du Yu Die? Humph, it was clearly a ploy to drive them apart!

  She, along with Meng Wanru and Yun Qiluo, even Du Yuxiang, are probably eager for her to become jealous and furious, and immediately slap the table and stand up?

  Elegantly picking up the tea on the table and taking a sip, he pretended to be grateful and looked at her: "Second sister said it, I naturally won't argue with her!"

  Qin Luohan's heart sank, and he forced a smile: "Sister understands... that's good!"

  Qin Luo's clothes were cold and she sneered.

  Want to see her joke?

  It's simply absurd!
