The princess has no moral principles, why did you provoke her?

Ximen Caidie didn't dare to curse anymore, because she knew she would be beaten if she continued to curse. She only cried out: "Ouch..."

Sha Mingche came up to Ye Qingyan and clasped his fists. "Miss, please spare my junior sister."

Ye Qingyan raised her eyes and looked at him with disdain: "What if I don't let go?"

Sha Mingche immediately took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and said, "Miss, please accept them.

I know it's all Junior Sister's fault. She shouldn't have offended you. Please calm down.

If anything happens to Junior Sister, I won't be able to explain to Master's wife, so please give me some face."

Ye Qingyan looked around and saw quite a few people gathered around to watch the show.

In public, you can only teach her a lesson, but you can't beat her to death, otherwise you will have to go to jail.

She decided to stop while she was ahead, "Okay, I'll spare her life today."

Ye Qingyan took the banknote and put it in her sleeve.

She came to Ximen Caidie and said sternly, "Ximen Caidie, listen to me, don't let me run into you again. If I run into you again, I'll beat you up."

After saying that, he continued walking forward without caring about the reactions of the people around him.

A middle-aged woman said, "Why show off when you can't beat them? You ended up getting beaten up. The injuries on your body are scary to look at."

"That's right. The clothes are torn, the flesh is exposed, and it's bloody. These wounds won't heal in ten days and will leave scars." Another woman agreed.

Sha Mingche quickly helped Ximen Caidie up, took off his coat and put it on her back.

"Junior sister, please bear with it for now."

Ximen Caidie's eyes were blazing with fire as she shouted, "Ye Qingyan, I'm not done with you."

After saying this, they endured the pain and got on the carriage and returned to Sha Mansion.

Ye Qingyan went directly to Baicaotang.

When Shopkeeper Zhou saw his master coming back, he hurriedly said, "Master, someone from Duke Shen's residence has come to ask the fortune teller Xiao Qi to come over."

"Duke Shen's Mansion? Why does this name sound familiar?"

She suddenly remembered that she had saved an old man, who said he was from Duke Shen's mansion.

"We'll go right away."

Duke Shen’s Mansion is not far from Baicaotang, and it only takes ten minutes to walk there.

Ye Qingyan brought Feng Yi and a small medicine box to the door of Duke Shen's mansion.

Feng Yi arrived at the door and said to the gatekeeper, "Tell your Duke that the divine fortune teller Xiao Qi has arrived.

The gatekeeper immediately responded, "The Duke has instructed that you may enter the mansion directly. Please follow me."

Ye Qingyan had no time to appreciate the surrounding scenery, so she and Feng Yi came to the flower hall in the main courtyard.

Sitting in the main seat in the room was the kind-looking Duke Shen, and next to him sat the Duke's wife and several other ladies.

Ye Qingyan bowed and said, "Xiao Qi greets the Duke and his wife."

The Duke's wife was stunned at the time. She looked 80% similar to Shen Meng, but her eyes were more resolute and wise than her daughter's.

The more the Duke's wife looked at Ye Qingyan, the more she liked her. She couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Qi, who is your mother?"

Ye Qingyan's mood became much more depressed. "I have never seen my parents since I was a child. Later, my master picked me up and brought me to the Qingyang Sect, where I became her closed disciple."

The Duke's wife's heart sank: "You are also a pitiful person, but fortunately, you have your master."

The old Duke glanced at his wife, then turned to look at Ye Qingyan: "The past is in the past, just be happy now.

From now on, this Duke's Mansion will be your support. If you have any problems, just come to me."

"Thank you, Duke!"

Duke Shen smiled and said, "Xiao Qi, there's no need to be so polite. When I saw you fortune-telling in front of Baicaotang that day, I knew you were coming to the capital, so I sent someone to ask for your help."

Ye Qingyan said in a clear voice, "What do you want to say, Duke? Just tell me."

"To be honest, I have an eldest grandson named Shen Mingxuan, who is seven years old this year. Before he was five years old, he was very smart.

After falling down from a rockery one day, she began to talk nonsense every day, sometimes understanding and sometimes confused, and sometimes she didn't even recognize her mother.

I consulted many doctors, but they were helpless.

I can't bear to see such a young child like this, so when I saw you coming to the capital, I invited you to come and see Mingxuan."

"Take me to see Mingxuan." Ye Qingyan said.

"Come with me!"

Duke Shen led the way, followed by Ye Qingyan and Feng Yi. The Duke's wife, Shen Mingxuan's mother, and other maids and servants also went together.

Ye Qingyan opened her ghost eyes. There was nothing wrong with the yard in front, but when she arrived at Qingshui Courtyard, she saw that the whole yard was shrouded in black air, which was the resentment of ghosts.

A child in a wheelchair in the yard was shouting, "I'm scared! I'm scared!"

There were two female ghosts beside him. One of them was licking his face with her tongue, and the other was touching his hair.

At this time, the child's eyes were blazing with fire, and he began to struggle to get off the bus like a madman.

The eldest lady hurriedly called out: "Xuan'er, Xuan'er!"

Ye Qingyan said to the Duke, "Stand on both sides of the door."

She took out the Qiankun Bagua Plate and shouted angrily: "I am the divine fortune teller Xiaoqi, you two leave this child, or I will take you in."

A female ghost said: "Madam, she can see us!"

Another female ghost in white glared at Ye Qingyan: "Mind your own business. This is a feud between me and the Shen family."

“You cannot take revenge on the child for the grudge between you and the Shen family.

If you have any grievances, you can tell me and I will tell the Duke the truth, and he will seek justice for you!"

The white-clothed female ghost looked at Ye Qingyan with suspicion: "You won't lie to me?"

"Don't worry, there's no point in me lying to you!"

The ghost in white began to tell the story again: "My name is Ma Qingqiu, and I am a concubine of the Duke's eldest son. I was pregnant that year..."

After hearing this, Ye Qingyan said, "You two should leave the child first. He is lacking in Yang energy and is almost being tortured to death by you. If the Duke shows favoritism, I will no longer be involved in this matter."

After hearing this, the ghost in white quickly stepped aside.

After the two female ghosts left, the child suddenly fainted.

Ye Qingyan came to Duke Shen and said, "Duke, the yin energy here is too strong. Please move Mingxuan to a courtyard facing the sun.

Do you know Ma Qingqiu?

The maids and the old women lowered their heads and dared not speak.

The eldest lady frowned and said, "She was once a concubine of my husband. Later, she lost her child and was so upset that she hanged herself."

Ye Qingyan looked at the eldest lady's evasive eyes and said, "Ma Qingqiu is here, and she is different from what you said.

She came for revenge, saying that the eldest lady had drugged her child, causing her to lose the child.

She didn't hang herself, but was strangled to death, and even her maid was not spared.

If this incident is not dealt with, she will continue to cause trouble in the mansion, and Xiao Qi will be powerless to do anything about it."

Upon hearing this, the Duke flew into a rage. Leaning on his cane, he demanded, "Tell me, what happened back then? My grandson suffered for two years! If you dare to lie, pay with your life!"
