“In front of my father, take back the things robbed by you from my mother, one by one.” Qin Yunuan glimpsed at Qin Zhi and was not scared by the freezing eyes of Qin Zhi. She became more determined now.

“Yunuan, why do you cause the uneasiness of the whole family when you come back for the first time after getting married?” Qin Zhi contained his anger because of the presence of Leng Changxi, but his low-voiced words were already a little bit angry.

“Father, it was not I who caused the uneasiness.” Qin Yunuan glimpsed at Qin Zhi lightly as if she had been looking at a full stranger. She was wondering why Qin Zhi, who utilized his marriage to seek profits, would like to take a long-shot gamble to marry a menial embroidering maiden. She thought that Qin Zhi paid sincere love to his mother, but he was wrong.

Qin Zhi married Yang for utilizing her but discarded her indifferently for being not able to utilize her.

“I don’t know where those things are.” Qin Yunzhuang said with tears. She did not know that. Qin Yunzhuang knew that Qin Yunuan was so determined. If Qin Yunzhuang did not take out the things, the evidence would definitely be sent into the palace.

“It’s OK,” Qin Yunuan took a deep breath. The attention seemed to be transited onto Qin Zhi, “My Grand Sister does not know that but father, you must know.”

“Ridiculous!” Qin Zhi pounded the table so heavily, and the teacups on the table almost were upset, “Do you really regard me as your father? How dare you query me like this!”

To be frankly, Qin Yunuan felt indifferent for such a greedy father who put his interest first, “I would dispatch people to search the whole mansion if I did not regard you as my father.”

There seemed to be an overwhelming thunderclap. Qin Zhi got outrageous, “Bastard! How dare you!”

“I dare to do that.” Leng Changxi said slowly, and his cold and indifferent face were in stark contrast to the indignant Qin Zhi. In front of Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi, Qin Zhi was like a furious clown who could not contain his temper.

“It’s easy,” Qin Yunuan stepped forward, “Father, you just give me the hangover left to me by my mother, and then I will stop the delivery of the evidence to Queen Mother. If the evidence were not sent to the Queen Mother, Qin Family would still be the prosperous family, and father, you would still be a good example to ordinary people.”

Qin Zhi had clenched his fists tightly. He would have never thought that Qin Yunuan spoke to him in such a voice. He widened his eyes and stared at Qin Yunuan. Each time Qin Zhi was outrageous, he would act like this, wherever in the imperial court or the mansion of Grand Commandant. Everybody knew from his face that he was at the top of the anger and would not bother him.

“Are you threatening me?”

Qin Yunuan smiled gently, like a beautiful lotus shining above the pond, “Yes, father. I am threatening you.”

“How?” Qin Zhi’s eyes had turned to be blooded. He could just try to restrain his extreme anger because Leng Changxi was protecting Qin Yunuan by his body, “You are my daughter. You should observe my order all the way. I give you your life. You could not say NO for protecting the fame of Qin Family even if your life might be sacrificed. Now, how dare you palter with me?”

“You give me my life?” Qin Yunuan raised her head and laughed, “Father, I can call you father until now. My mother gave birth to me, and nurse Liao raised me. Have you ever visited Baochuan and me in the back room? Where were you when Dou Qing’e bullied those servants and me and my brother?”

Qin Zhi stunned and did not say anything. And then Qin Yunuan laughed at his father so coldly and indifferently, “Father, you should make up your mind quickly, or nothing would be changed even if the guy with the highest light skills in Qi chased the evidence.” And then, Qin Yunuan looked at Leng Changxi. He blinked and said thoughtfully, “I won’t chase the evidence.”

Well, Leng Changxi was the guy with the highest light skills in Qi.

“Father, you hold the destiny of Qin Family.” Qin Yunuan adjusted her body, acting well-mannered. But in fact, she had forced Qin Zhi at the dead end. She knew the temper of Qin Zhi and could guess the final choice of him rightly.

Time seemed to get so slow, and all things around seemed to freeze. All of the people in the flower hall were looking at Qin Zhi and waiting for his decision. His decision could determine the destiny and prosperity of the mansion of Grand Commandant.

It was not a big thing to let her know the real identity of Lady Yang. After all…

Qin Zhi was pondering, “OK, I will give you. But you should dispatch someone to stop the person who sends the evidence to the palace.”

“No,” Qin Yunuan would not concede, “You take out the things first, and then I make the order.”

“You…” Qin Zhi was speechless. Was he really submitting to the little girl?

“Father, time is going by.” Qin Yunuan glimpsed slightly at the sunshine outside.

“Butler Xie, go to fetch the black box in my room.” Qin Zhi sat back to the chair. He failed. He failed to a 15-year-old daughter of a concubine who was just got married.

Just for a while, Butler Xie came in and held a sandalwood-made black box. He put it down carefully in front of Qin Zhi.

Qin Zhi squinted at it impatiently, and said to Qin Yunuan annoyedly, “That’s it. The things left by your mother is in the box.”

“Leng Shuang, hold it.” Qin Yunuan said, and Leng Chuang took it back easily from Butler Xie promptly. Leng Shuang held the heavy sandalwood box, which seemed to be as light as a piece of feather.

Qin Yunuan did not open the box because she knew that Qin Zhi dared not to play tricks about the box.

“Right now! Immediately! At once! Go to dispatch people to stop the man entering the palace.” Qin Zhi ordered and shouted at Qin Yunuan in a more confident voice.

“Stop what?” Qin Yunuan looked so confused.

“Don’t play tricks to me!” Qin Zhi’s eyes suddenly got ferocious. In the imperial court, he was in a good temper. But though he was kind enough, he would not be at the mercy of others easily. Or, he would not have such high prestige in the imperial court.

“No, Yunuan always keeps my promise. But,” Qin Yunuan said with her rising eyebrows. She said, “Don’t you remember, father? It is the closing day today, and anybody cannot enter and get out of the imperial palace. There is only a little maidservant beside me.”

Betray the promise? Qin Zhi stood up outrageously. He rushed at Qin Yunuan and was about to slap her heavily, but suddenly stopped. Qin Zhi was astonished suddenly by Leng Changxi’s eyes as cold as a sharp dagger. The cold feeling was like numerous steel daggers put in his neck.

“Father in law,” Leng Changxi said coldly, “You have said that family harmony is important on the returning day of Yunuan.”

Now Qin Zhi could not make the scene harmonious. He was more experienced than the younger, but today he was made fun by Qin Yunuan, this cunning girl.

“Qin Yunuan, you betrayed your promise!” Qin Yunzhuang felt extremely furious when he thought that he had admitted many things stupidly since Qin Yunuan did not send the evidence to the imperial palace.

“Yes,” Qin Yunuan admitted frankly, “I betrayed my promise, so what?”

“You….” Qin Yunzhuang felt so fevered. She rushed at Qin Yunuan was about to argue, but she was pulled by Leng Shuang who appeared suddenly.

“My hands!”

The pain came, and Qin Yunzhuang held his wrist and cried at once because she had never suffered such kind of pain.

“It’s fine,” Leng Shuang turned back and said lightly, “Just dislocation.”

“Qin Yunuan, you are stirring up trouble.” Qin Linfeng felt so worried about the hurt of Qin Yunzhuang and forgot the situation. He held Qin Yunzhuang horizontally and put her on the chair aside, comforting her.

“I dare not make trouble,” Qin Yunuan said with her head rising slightly, “I came here just for taking Baochuan back.”

“No way. I can give you the hangovers of your mother. Yunzhuang made mistakes before, and now you hurt her hands. That’s equal, and I don’t want to punish you now. But Baochuan, he is the son of the concubine of Qin Family. He can’t live in Prince Ning’s Mansion with you.” Qin Zhi was so stubborn about this issue. If others knew that Baochuan left the mansion and lived with his married sister, they would gossip that Qin Baochuan was mistreated by Qin Family.

“Baochaun is not only your son but also my younger brother. I regard him as my precious younger brother, but father, you don’t regard him as your lovely son.” Qin Yunuan did not concede. She was busy handling the issues in Prince Ning’s Mansion, and Concubine Chang could not guarantee Baochuan singly since Qin Linfeng and Qin Yunzhuang lived in Qin Family. She had made up her mind that she must take Baochuan back.

“Rude. How dare you speak to your elders in such an impolite mood!” Qin Zhi could not tolerate her defiant mood. Now he wanted to reshape his figure as the master of Qin Family regardless of Leng Changxi on the spot.

“Father, don’t you remember?” Qin Yunuan sneered, “I was rude just now. Let’s get this straight. I must take Baochuan out today.”

“You are such an impious daughter!” Qin Zhi glared at her and shouted, “Fine. You can leave the mansion, and you can take Baochuan out. But I would eliminate your name from the family tree if you and your brother left the mansion. You and your brother are no longer the family members of Qin Family.”
