"Don't give it to me. Keep some money for yourself so it will be more convenient to spend money this way." Wen Qingcheng and Wen Liang were pushing each other around. The Marquis' wife, Princess Pingning, who was passing by, happened to see them. She walked towards them with a group of maids and servants behind her.

"Who is this?!" Princess Pingning was about the same age as Ye Xiuying, and was very dignified. She kept a stern face and looked at Wen Qingcheng calmly. She saw that she was not very old and was indeed very beautiful, as if she had walked out of a painting. Just now, when she saw Wen Liang putting silver into her pocket, she guessed that Wen Liang looked like a gentleman on the surface, but he dared to bring her to his house and did not take her seriously at all.

No wonder Wen Liang was so lukewarm towards her, and seemed helpless every time they slept together. It turned out that he had eaten too much outside.

Wen Liang noticed the anger in Princess Pingning's eyes and explained, "Madam, you are here. This is the little doctor who treated my mother. He just finished treating my mother and she has woken up."

"What was that just now, my lord?" Princess Pingning ignored Wen Qingcheng and looked at Wen Liang and questioned.

"That was my personal thank-you gift to the little doctor, but he refused to accept it." After Wen Liang finished explaining, he shouted loudly to his personal servant, "Dongyang, send the little doctor back."

Princess Pingning stared at the thin and weak back and Wen Liang's worried eyes. She felt annoyed and said to the maids behind her, "When you work in my mansion, you must behave properly. If anyone spends all day dressing up, I will sell them out immediately. If anyone is restless, I will make her go in upright and leave sideways."

Wen Liang's face darkened. He knew that the words were directed at him. Although he was gentle, he was not cowardly. He always respected his wife, but if his wife acted recklessly and hurt his daughter, he would never tolerate it.

Wen Liang said nothing and turned to go to the old lady's courtyard. When Wen Liang was far away, Princess Pingning called a maid and whispered, "Send someone to follow the girl and find out more."

"Yes, ma'am."

......

When Wen Qingcheng returned home, she saw Mo Jinghong sitting in the front hall drinking tea. When he saw Wen Qingcheng coming back, he looked her up and down and asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

Mo Jinghong knew that wealthy families had many rules and many shady things to do, and he didn't want his little girl to be involved in it. But after hearing Bai Wei's description and knowing that it was Wen Liang who came, he didn't say much.

Wen Qingcheng was very happy to see Mo Jinghong, and replied with a smile: "Yes, the old lady in the Marquis' Mansion had a cerebral hemorrhage, and she finally woke up after my miraculous healing."

The two chatted for a while, and Axuan came in from outside and whispered a few words in Mo Jinghong's ear. Mo Jinghong's eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent. Yingge had just told Axuan outside that when Wen Qingcheng came back, she was followed by someone, but was repelled by Yingge.

Wen Qingcheng saw Mo Jinghong's expression suddenly changed and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You were being watched as soon as you left the mansion."

Wen Qingcheng's eyes flashed. Could it be Princess Pingning? The way she looked at her was not right at that time. Maybe she thought she was Wen Liang's lover.

"I may know who it is. Don't worry about her. She just wants to find out my background. With Yingge's protection, those people can't catch up with me." Wen Qingcheng said indifferently.

Mo Jinghong's eyes were dark, and he said to A Falcon beside him, "A Falcon, go tell Yingge that if something like this happens again, tie her up and bring her to me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Mo Jinghong finished his explanation, he looked at Wen Qingcheng with concern, "Cheng'er, you still want to go, right?"

Wen Qingcheng nodded. No treatment should be given up halfway, and she was doing it for Wen Liang’s sake.

Mo Jinghong sighed softly, took out a jade pendant with excellent water head from his arms and handed it to Wen Qingcheng. "This was given by His Majesty a few days ago. Wear it on your body."

"Is this something that the emperor has worn? It's so valuable, is it appropriate for me to wear it?" Wen Qingcheng was also afraid that she was not worthy of her position. She was just a commoner, and it was inappropriate for her to wear such a valuable thing.

"Since this jade pendant was given to me, it belongs to me. I can give it to whoever I want. Wear it."

Wen Qingcheng accepted it and felt warm in her hand. The texture was indeed excellent. She understood Mo Jinghong's intention. He was afraid that Wen Qingcheng would be bullied in the Marquis' Mansion. With this jade pendant, she would not be easily bullied.

The next morning, the carriage of the Marquis's mansion was waiting at the door. Wen Qingcheng went out and saw that it was Wen Liang and his personal servant Dong Yang. Wen Qingcheng got in the carriage and said, "Dad... Marquis, why did you come to pick me up in person? I can ride a horse myself, and the Marquis's mansion is not far from here, so I can go by myself."

"I was afraid that the people below would neglect you. I had nothing to do anyway, so I came here." Wen Liang said. He was afraid that if he didn't follow, Wen Qingcheng might meet the princess and bully his daughter.

Wen Qingcheng took a deep breath and thought to herself that her father was too naive. Princess Pingning wanted to find out her background, but was stopped by Yingge. But if Wen Liang came out of the Marquis's Mansion, he might be followed by someone. But now that things have come to this, Wen Liang has come, so he can only take it one step at a time.

As soon as Wen Qingcheng and Wen Liang entered the Marquis' Mansion, a maid went to report to Princess Pingning.

In the main hall of Cuilin Garden, Princess Pingning was leisurely drinking tea when the maid came in to report. "Madam, the young miracle doctor is here again. The Marquis brought him here personally."

Princess Pingning had a serious look on her face. The person she sent out yesterday came back to report that he was stopped by someone not long after leaving the mansion. She didn't expect that the girl was protected by an expert.

"Have you found out who that little vixen is?" Princess Pingning asked calmly.

"The people I sent followed the Marquis all the way today and saw him turn into Lan Gui Alley. We were afraid that if we followed too closely, we would be discovered, so our people withdrew. The houses in that area are not cheap, they are either rich or noble."

Princess Pingning had anger in her eyes and snorted coldly. Suddenly, she raised her jade hand high and slammed the table in front of her. There was a loud "bang" and the cups on the table jumped up, splashing tea everywhere. The sudden noise scared the maids and servants present. They lowered their heads and dared not breathe.

"Can that little vixen really cure diseases?" The princess asked in a cold voice with a look of suspicion, her eyebrows raised and frost in her eyes.

The old maid at the side replied, "Madam, I heard several maids in Lixiang Garden discussing privately last night. They said that the old lady has woken up, but half of her body is still unable to move, and even getting out of bed is a problem." As she spoke, the old servant secretly raised her eyes to glance at Princess Pingning's face, and seeing that Princess Pingning's expression became increasingly gloomy, she quickly lowered her head again.
