When Yun Shang returned to the Chrysanthemum Yard, Qian Yin burst into laughter with a bit of ridicule in her eyes. "Your Highness, is Mister Qi making a scene to save a beauty?"
A hint of smile appeared in Yun Shang's eyes. She shook her head and said, "You see, he paid a lot of efforts for it. Look, he has really taken a stab. I'm afraid it will take some time for him to recover from it. You are so heartless to tease him. It's just that this drama is not so good. Is it favored by the Qi family to play 'the orchid of flowers' to invite such a soft girl to play the hero, and Mr. Qi to make a drama to save the beauty. But they are not good at acting."
Qian Yin asked with curiosity. "You knew Mr. Qi was making a show as you held me back?"
Yun Shang nodded, "It is such a coincidence for him to be there. I've asked you to look into the General Qi's Mansion thoroughly recently. We are the only one living here. No one is supposed to come here at this time. Besides, have you ever seen anyone who takes a walk with a sword in his own house? I don't think anyone as vigilant as his highness would do such a thing."
Qian Yin thought for a while, and was more impressed by Yun Shang. With a smile on her face, Qian Yun asked, "How will you reward him for his hard work? Mr. Qi was hurt and passed out to save her highness."
Yun Shang yawned and went to bed. "It's his own business if he wants to pretend. It has nothing to do with me." Qian Yin saw the tiredness on Yun Shang's face, so she stopped messing with her and went to pour a cup of water for Yun Shang. After she helped Yun Shang to freshen up, Qian Yin had a rest. However, a maid came in a hurry at midnight and knocked on the door of the Chrysanthemum Yard.
The eunuch brought the servant girl in and handed her to Qian Yin. Qian Yin frowned. "Her Highness has already gone to bed. What brings you here in the middle of the night?"
The servant's eyes were red and seemed to have just cried. She looked pitiful. "Qian Yin, can you pass a message to your highness and beg her to see my master. My master was injured and still in a coma. He had a nightmare at midnight and kept calling her highness. I thought master must be worried about your Highness's health, so he was like that. Therefore, I beg your highness to go and see him."
Hearing this, Qian Yin's face darkened. She snapped, "Enough!"
The maid seemed shocked. She sobbed, "Qian Yin..."
Qian Yin interrupted her with a cold face, "Do you have any idea who her highness is? She is Prince Jing's wife, Lady Jing. And who is your master? It's midnight now. If my lady has any sympathy on you and comes to visit your master in your mansion, I'm afraid there will be lots of rumors between your master and her tomorrow. What you have done is getting my master in trouble. Now, there's no room for negotiation. If anything happens to your master, ask for a doctor. Even if the doctor can't treat your master's disease, please go to your master's wife."
The maid lowered her eyes. Tears welled up in her eyes and she sobbed. "I see. I shouldn't have behaved rudely. Please forgive me. I'm too worried about my master. I'll be back soon." Then she made a curtsy to Qian Yin and withdrew.
A touch of coldness flashed in Qian Yin's eyes. Previously, when Mister Qi started to tease her master, she just treated it as a joke and then turned it over with a few words. But if it was at the order of Mister Qi, it could only be said that Mister Qi was really wicked and treacherous.
If Yun Shang was invited to see Mr. Qi today, her reputation would be ruined if some people abruptly popped up during the visit.
