Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Qi Yuebin limped back to Wangshu Pavilion with the help of Jixiang and Ruyi.

Jixiang Ruyi silently treated Qi Yuebin's wound. The abrasion on Qi Yuebin's elbow was covered with gravel from the horse farm. Qi Yuebin frowned in pain at the slightest touch and barely managed to hold back from crying out in pain.

Jixiang couldn't help but have red eyes, and choked up and said, "Concubine Nian is really going too far."

Even the steady Ruyi nodded in agreement, "Yes, you dare to treat your master like this in public."

Qi Yuebin smiled bitterly, "You also know that she was in front of everyone. Since she dared to do this, she must have been fully prepared."

Jixiang asked sadly, "Do we really have to do what Concubine Nian says from now on?"

Qi Yuebin sighed. What can he do when the situation is stronger than him?

Ruyi thought of an idea, "What if we go to the prince for help?"

No matter how arrogant Nian Shilan is, she can never surpass the Fourth Prince. As long as the Fourth Prince cares about his master, what else can Nian Shilan do?

Qi Yuebin hesitated in her heart. She felt that she should not cause trouble to the Fourth Prince for such a small matter. She was also afraid that the Fourth Prince would despise her for being useless and unable to solve such a small matter. On the other hand, she was worried that the Fourth Prince would protect Nian Shilan for the support of the Nian family. This was Qi Yuebin's inner demon, and she did not want to force the Fourth Prince to make a choice easily.

The Fourth Prince returned to the mansion. He wanted to go to Wangshu Pavilion to look for Qi Yuebin today, but was stopped by Su Peisheng. "My Lord, Concubine Qi sent someone to deliver a message saying that she was exhausted from the horse racing today and needed to rest for half a month."

This news made the Fourth Prince frown. Ever since Qi Yuebin became favored, Nian Shilan never asked Qi Yuebin to go to the horse farm again. Qi Yuebin was also well-behaved and never annoyed Nian Shilan. Why did Qi Yuebin go there today and come back saying that he needed to rest for half a month?

"Su Peisheng, I want to hear the truth."

Su Peisheng knew that the Fourth Prince would definitely ask, so he had already inquired. Su Peisheng had a good impression of the generous Nian Shilan, but the Fourth Prince was Su Peisheng's master. Concubine Nian, it's not that I don't want to help you, but what you did was too obvious.

"Today, Concubine Nian invited Concubine Qi to compete. Concubine Qi lost her sight and fell down. Fortunately, the horse was not running very fast at the time, so Concubine Qi was fine. However, she was inevitably injured, so she came to ask for leave from the main courtyard."

For the first time, the Fourth Prince realized that Nian Shilan, who was gentle and lovely in front of him, was actually a not-so-generous person. Or perhaps the Fourth Prince knew it before, but he always regarded Nian Shilan's jealousy as the behavior of a childish child. But jealousy is a devil that always tempts people to do irreparable things.

Now Nian Shilan has obviously been bewitched and has begun to eliminate competitors in her own way.

Under Yixiu's management, how could such a thing happen in the backyard? But Nian Shilan did it so recklessly.

The Fourth Prince pounded the table in anger. Nian Gengyao and Nian Shilan were truly brother and sister, both were equally domineering.

Hearing that the Fourth Prince had returned home, Yixiu estimated the time and determined that the Fourth Prince should know what happened in the horse farm today, so she slowly came to the main courtyard, intending to get involved. After all, Nian Shilan was challenging Yixiu's authority by doing this, and if she didn't teach him a lesson, Nian Shilan might do something to target the main position again.

Su Peisheng welcomed Yixiu in with a grateful look on his face. The lady in law had a good relationship with the prince, and now she came to put out the fire to prevent the servants from being taken out on.

Yixiu greeted him and looked up to see the Fourth Prince's tightly clenched hands. She asked him to loosen his grip with some concern, "Who are you angry with, Your Majesty? Don't hurt yourself even if you are angry with someone!"

The Fourth Prince watched Yixiu examine her palms to see if there were any injuries. His anger suddenly subsided. "Xiaoyi usually doesn't come to the front yard. Is there something important?"

Yixiu carefully examined the Fourth Prince's palm and replied, "The front yard is where the master works, so of course I have to set an example. I came here today for... Concubine Qi."

At this point, Yixiu frowned in embarrassment.

The Fourth Prince did not expect that Yixiu and he were so in tune with each other, both worried about the same thing, and asked calmly, "What happened to Qi?"

Liu Youyou thought, are you pretending again? Who are you trying to trick?

Yixiu recounted what happened, "Concubine Qi sent someone to Xiliyuan to ask for leave, saying that she had injured her hands and feet. How could she be injured for no reason? I went to ask about it, and I didn't expect that it was related to Sister Nian."

The Fourth Prince suspected that Yixiu was here to flatter Nian Shilan, "Xiaoyi means that Shilan harmed Qi?"

Yixiu said embarrassedly, "I can't tell who I am, so I came to ask you to judge. Sister Qi insisted that it was carelessness, and the injury was not serious, just a few scratches. But to be honest, this matter is strange, but how old is Sister Nian? How could she do such a thing?

I can't find any evidence, but if someone really did it, and if it's not dealt with in time, will the backyard take the government rules seriously? I'm really in a dilemma, and I'd like to ask you for some advice."

To really accuse Nian Shilan of harming people, you need to produce solid evidence and Qi Yuebin to testify. Without these two things, there is no way to convict Nian Shilan. But Yixiu, as the hostess, had no reaction to this matter, which was dereliction of duty, so even if there was no witness or evidence, she had to report to the Fourth Prince to show her diligence.

On the other hand, if the evidence is really produced, whether to sentence the Fourth Prince or not is a dilemma. If he does not sentence her, there is no way to correct the atmosphere in the backyard, and everyone can rely on their mother's family to do dirty things in the future; if he sentences her, will the Nian family be dissatisfied, affecting the Fourth Prince's great cause?

Yixiu spoke sincerely, and the Fourth Prince put aside his doubts and started to worry with Yixiu about how to deal with the matter.

As long as the Fourth Prince does not express his opinion, Yixiu will not show up. Only a fool would attract Nian Shilan's hatred and gain no benefits.

Seeing that Yixiu was still not speaking, the Fourth Prince could only speak up himself, "There is really no evidence that Shilan attacked Qi. It's all hearsay. Fu Jin should still discipline the servants. The rumors spread every day have a bad influence on the atmosphere."

Yixiu replied, "Before coming here, I had already asked Jianqiu to teach her a lesson. How dare you make up stories about the master."

The Fourth Prince was very satisfied with Yixiu's sharpness and talked about the arrangement for Nian Shilan and Qi Yuebin. "This matter was organized by Shilan. It must not be Shilan's intention to hurt Qi. Give Qi more compensation! After all, she was wronged. The person in charge of the horse farm is not capable. Let's change a group of people to serve the master!"

Yixiu agreed with a smile, "Master is indeed wise. This way, no one will be wronged. Then Xiaoyi should also pick some things to calm Sister Qi down."
