"Cousin, did you notice anything wrong?" After Yue Wenhan left the side yard with Qu Moying, he immediately asked, feeling suspicious.

It was not only about Qu Moying's attitude but also everyone from the Ji Family's reaction.

He once visited the Earl Ling'an's Mansion before. At that time, the Second Master of the Ji Family received him, saying that Earl Ling'an was severely sick and couldn't get off the bed to meet guests. He didn't find anything weird by then.

At this moment, Yue Wenhan still had no idea that Ji Yongming, Earl Ling'an, had lost his life long ago.

"I don't know. I just have this weird feeling. Even if Cousin Yanyue really died of sickness, they at least had to announce it. If they didn't want to affect the Crown Prince's wedding, they could just keep a low profile about it. But instead, they chose to hide a person's death from everyone like this. Moreover, it is a noble lady's death. What if it was a maid? Does that mean they can do anything they want to her without anyone knowing? "

Qu Moying twisted her brows into a frown.

Yue Wenhan nodded and put on a long face. He suddenly stopped at the corner of the porch. "Cousin, you'd better not go tomorrow. I will go check what's going on there."

Yue Wenhan knew what kind of person Qu Zhizhen was. If he cared about his daughter Qu Moying even a little more, Qu Moying wouldn't end up in her current position. He didn't think Qu Zhizhen would agree to visit the Earl Ling'an's Mansion with Qu Moying.

"It's okay. I really want to go take a look there. I just feel...something bad has happened." Qu Moying lowered her head and sighed faintly.

"I doubt Vice Minister Qu's ankle will recover tomorrow. I don't think he can leave the mansion yet," Yue Wenhan used a different way to convince Qu Moying politely.

His words made Qu Moying fall into silence for a while. Then she curtsied respectfully to Yue Wenhan, "Thank you, Cousin."

Then she straightened up, stared at Yue Wenhan with a stern look, and added, "Cousin, if you notice anything suspicious, don't urge to tell other people about it. We don't have a clear grasp of the situation, so please act discreetly."

Yue Wenhan was indeed in a perfect position to help her carry out her plan since he was related to both Qu Moying and Ji Hanyue. Fearing that he would act impulsively, Qu Moying had to keep reminding him.

Her meaningful words confused Yue Wenhan, but he still nodded at her. "Don't worry. I won't do anything reckless."

"Alright, Cousin. If you have any news, please tell me at once. No matter what, I will pay a visit to the Earl Ling'an's Mansion," Qu Moying said firmly.

Feeling her persistence, Yue Wenhan didn't try to stop her anymore. After a few words, he left first, leaving Qu Moying standing quietly on her spot alone!

She would go to the Earl Ling'an's Mansion no matter what. If she couldn't go this time, she would create a chance for herself next time.

Qu Moying noticed the abrupt change in Xiao's expression when she said she would go visit them with Qu Zhizhen tomorrow. But knowing Xiao's and Ji Youran's personalities, they would try every means to stop her.

They would definitely come up with a way to deal with Qu Moying. As the Fourth Lady of the Qu Family, she was initially barely related to the Ji Family. But if they wanted to get rid of her, they must build a closer connection with her first.

Which was precisely what she wanted!

Ji Youran would be busy handling things in the Eastern Palace and the Earl Ling'an's Mansion simultaneously. She wondered if Ji Youran was really capable of hiding each of her dirty secrets well...
