The Third Prince and Master Ren continued to discuss shamelessly. Their words were like poisonous snakes, full of malice and conspiracy.

“If we can use the help of foreign tribes to start an uprising, we can find a way to get the Qi family to send troops, and then…” The third prince’s voice was low and sinister.

Master Ren agreed, "That's right! In this way, we can not only get rid of the Qi family, which is a headache for us, but also weaken the power of the foreign tribes. It really kills two birds with one stone!"

They had never considered how many soldiers and civilians were behind the Qi family. These people would become victims of their conspiracy and be dragged into a meaningless war.

Qi Wan heard all these conspiracies in secret, and an irrepressible resentment surged in her heart.

"They are so shameless that they are willing to let the soldiers die and the people suffer for their own selfish interests." Qi Wan clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deeply into his palms, and sparks of anger flashed in his eyes.

She originally wanted to kill the third prince with poison, but now she changed her mind.

"No, if I kill him now, it would be too easy for him." Qi Wan gritted his teeth and put the poison back into his arms.

"I can't let him die so easily. I must make him bear the crime of treason and let him experience the feeling of being despised by the world." Qi Wan recalled the scene in her previous life when the third prince slandered her father and brother for treason, and the hatred in her heart grew stronger.

Therefore, Qi Wan decided to let the third prince go for the time being. She wanted him to struggle in despair and finally receive the punishment he deserved.

Qi Wan took a deep breath and tried to calm her anger. She knew that to realize her plan, she needed to wait patiently for the right opportunity.

"One day, you will pay the price for what you have done." Qi Wan whispered, then left quietly.

Qi Wan thought to himself, "Who is Ren Quezi, the Third Prince's military advisor? He seems to have a great grudge against our Qi family."

Qi Wan memorized his appearance in his mind:

He was about fifty years old, with a pointed face and a monkey-like appearance. There was a fleshy mole on his left cheek with a few black hairs on it, and his left leg was lame.

Qi Wan was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was able to draw this person's appearance.

Qi Wan let the third prince go, but he was still filled with resentment.

She still had to do something to calm her anger.

Qi Wan turned the rosary beads and silently said, "I swept everything in the Third Prince's warehouse."

There were a few flashes of light, like lightning across the sky, or like meteors falling from the sky.

Before she left, she twirled her rosary beads again and said, "Send a few foxes to the backyard."

Qi Wanjing waited for a while, and heard the scream of a fox in the backyard piercing the night sky, and the surroundings fell into a weird atmosphere.

Someone asked in a trembling voice, "What's that sound?"

"Wildcat."

"It looks like a fox."

"Don't talk nonsense, the Third Prince is back, go and greet him."

A large group of people came out to greet them, "Your Highness."

The Third Prince laughed loudly, "Hahaha, where is the beauty that was sent tonight?"

"Your Highness, I will wait for you in the bedroom."

"Beauty, the king is here."

The two men stripped off their clothes and rolled together.

The third prince, who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed, felt something furry crawling on his back. He turned around and saw several foxes getting on the bed and approaching him with their mouths wide open.

In an instant, the third prince screamed in fear, "Ah...ah...someone come quickly, there is a fox..." He turned over, jumped off the bed and rushed out.

The third prince and Ding Ling'er ran out of the inner room naked. They held their heads and ran around the yard, with several foxes chasing and biting them.

"Help, help, kill the foxes, shoot them."

The Third Prince's roar and Ding Ling'er's scream echoed in the sky above the capital.

In the darkness, the third prince was running wildly and the guards dared not shoot arrows.

If the third prince is accidentally shot, the whole family will not survive.

The guards could only surround the Third Prince and use their bodies to protect him from the fox.

This thing is extremely cunning and can get into any crack.

It was very strange that the foxes only chased and bit the third prince.

"Help, kill them."

The guards looked at the third prince jumping and shouting naked, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

A guard threw a piece of clothing to the Third Prince, and he managed to cover his body.

No one cared about Ding Ling'er. She danced naked and let the guards watch her to their heart's content.

As they chased the fox, they muttered, "Your Highness wants such an ugly woman, no wonder the fox couldn't stand it and wanted to bite her."

After more than an hour of fussing, the foxes were not caught and all ran away.

The Third Prince was furious and blamed Ding Ling'er, "Are you a vixen? As soon as you came, a vixen came to the palace."

"Lock up this monster."

If he hadn't wanted the third branch of the Qi family to help, he would have sent Ding Ling'er to the brothel.

Qi Wan then left with a smile and entered the space to take a look at how much wealth he had obtained from the third prince.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

In addition to hundreds of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, there was also an exquisite dragon robe, a crown inlaid with various jewels, and a dragon throne carved from jade.

These things are priceless. If you just take them apart, each one can be sold for a high price.

Qi Wan cursed, "That beast is crazy about being the emperor. I'm afraid he wants to wear the dragon robe and sit on the dragon throne every day for fun."

She appeared in bed peacefully, wrapped in a thin quilt and rested. Before going to sleep, she said to herself, "Tomorrow I will go and take away the gold and silver sent by the Lan family."

Lan Ting's father, Lan Tan, was previously the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, in charge of the tax accounts of the country.

The officials below reported, "We paid 100,000 taels of silver in taxes, but Minister Lan withheld half of it."

Upon checking, the amount was nearly one million taels.

The emperor asked Lan Tan to return the gold and silver.

Lan Tan said: "I didn't get any gold or silver. Someone else framed me."

He refused to admit his debt and refused to hand over the money.

The emperor saw that he was close to the prince and guessed that he was embezzling money for the prince.

The emperor did not execute him, but only exiled his entire family and sent his women to brothels.

All the officials in the court speculated that Lan Tan was taking the blame for someone else.

Qi Wan sympathizes with Lan Ting and wants to buy her as a maid.

Her uncle, the prime minister, also thought that Lan Tan was taking the blame for someone else, so he stepped in to help buy Lan Ting and gave her to Qi Wan as a maid.

Otherwise, how could a minister have the courage to embezzle such a large amount of gold and silver.

It was not until tonight that Qi Wan realized that Lan Tan had indeed embezzled money. He was just that bold.

"How terrible! Lan Tan even ignored his wife and daughter for the sake of gold and silver." Qi Wan shuddered.

Lan Tan had ten wives, daughters-in-law, and daughters, all of whom went to brothels.

Only Lan Ting was bought by her, and the others were all serving customers in the brothel.

Qi Wan placed his hands on his chest and roughly calculated:

Back then, she spent five hundred taels of silver to buy Lan Ting.

Lan Ting was raised like a young lady in the Qi Mansion. Not only did she never do the work of a maid, she also ordered the maids and old women to serve her tea and water.

Lan Ting stole her jewelry, cloth, gold and silver...

After all these accounts were settled, Lan Ting owed Qi Wan countless amounts of silver.

Lan Ting turned evil into evil, colluded with the third prince and the third wife, and tried to murder the Qi family.

In their previous life, they succeeded and killed the eldest and second wives of the Qi family.

Qi Wan thought about this and made a decision, "I will take away all the wealth of the Lan family as compensation, and I will also avenge the Lan family by making them pay with blood."

She was thinking about this even in her sleep, turning the beads in her hands and muttering, "All the wealth of the Lan Tan family has been taken away."

She didn't see that outside the window, there were a few bright lights streaking across the dark sky.

next day

After Qi Wan got up, she washed and dressed, then changed into a red tulle skirt embroidered with delicate pink cherry blossoms and colorful butterfly patterns.

A pink short-sleeved top adds a touch of playfulness and liveliness.

She wore an exquisite pearl hairpin on her head, which shone brightly and made her as beautiful and charming as a fairy.

Qi Wan originally wanted to take her maids and servants to pay respects to her grandfather and parents.

She suddenly remembered the lame man she saw in the third prince's study the night before.

She walked quickly to the study in the East Palace, stood in front of the desk, and unfolded a piece of rice paper.

"Miss, do you want to write something?" Xia Feng asked.

She followed and rolled up the young lady's sleeves.

Qi Wan picked up the brush and made an excuse, "I dreamed of a bad guy, so I drew him first."

"Got it, Miss." Xia Feng added clean water to the inkstone and picked up the ink block to grind it for a while.

Qi Wan dipped the brush into the inkstone and drew lines on the rice paper.

Xia Feng leaned over to take a look and thought: Why does it look like a wolf?

Qi Wan drew the facial features and limbs on the lines, and Xia Feng suddenly understood, "It turns out to be a lame, skinny old man."

Xia Feng praised: "Miss, you are getting more and more absorbed in painting."

Qi Wan put down his pen, tilted his head to look at the painting, frowned slightly, and his eyes were wandering, as if he was recalling something from the past through the painting.

Chunyan came in with a wet towel and wiped the young lady's hands.

After seeing the painting, she also praised it, "Miss, your painting is so lifelike."

She also commented, "It's obvious that this person is not a good person."

Qi Wan came back to his senses and agreed with Chunyan, "Yes, he is not a good person."

She saw that the ink on the paper had dried, so she rolled up the painting.

"Let's go to the front yard and the upper yard to pay our respects." Qi Wan turned slightly and whispered to the maids and old women.

Her gentle voice was like a breeze blowing past your ears, making you feel a little warm. After she finished speaking, she took graceful steps and walked forward.

Her skirt fluttered gently with her movements, like a blooming flower, exuding charming charm.

Her posture is soft and graceful, and every step carries a unique charm, as if she is a fairy walking out of a painting. The sunlight shines on her, setting off her fair skin and delicate features, making her even more beautiful.
