"Thank you, Lord Wang."

Qu Miaoling got into the carriage, which was the one parked in Xiangmanlou.

As soon as she appeared by the lake, several men hurried to the Wude Houfu.

Wu Dehou's wife, Wen Rou was sitting in the hall, she tasted the tea in her hand with satisfaction, this is the famous tea sent by the Wen family, dozens of taels of silver can buy one tael, and the gold is very expensive.

"Madam, it's not good......"

The maid Taolei hurriedly came in, and when she came to Wen Rou's ear, there was a burst of muttering.

"What!"

The tea cup in Wen Rou's hand was already on the ground, and the tea almost splashed on her.

But at this time, Wen Rou didn't have the heart to care about the side, "She ran away?" ”

"That man's men came down to report that their boss had never returned, and he saw Qu Miaoling get off the boat with his own eyes, and then get into the carriage of the king of the decide, and now he is rushing towards the Hou Mansion!"

The king?

"Why did Qu Miaoling get involved with King Determination again?"

"Not only that, he said that His Royal Highness Huai Yong is also there, and they have also caught it alive."

Wen Rou was completely panicked.

She twisted the handkerchief in her hand, her eyes wandering.

"Taolei, you go and tell them that I don't care what they think, I must kill the living mouth for me! At all costs, I agreed to all their requests! ”

"Madame don't need to worry, I have already locked up the servant woman sent to contact them, and I make sure that no one knows, and even if they find the servant woman, they will not be able to think of us."

Wen Rou regained some of her senses.

"Well done, Taolei, in that case, you go and dispose of the servant woman, don't leave a trace, and we'll go to welcome Miss back to the house later, by the way, you go and tell the old lady first, saying that Miss is back."

Taolei bowed her head and left in a hurry.

"Momoxin, Mrs. Fumoto is going to change her clothes, can't you just go to greet Miss!"

Tao Lei hurried to the old lady's Buddhist courtyard, and the old lady, who was pinching the Buddha beads and silently reciting a mantra, heard that her grandmother was coming, and her eyes opened instantly.

"Qu Miaoling is so bold, who allowed her to go out of the mansion without permission, isn't it enough for us to swagger in the Houfu Martial Arts Mansion?"

Some time ago, Wu Dehou was called into the palace, and was almost scolded by the emperor for being bloody, the prince had an accident in the palace, and the emperor generously forgave the whole house, and they had to know about gratitude.

"Mama, Qu Miaoling will come back later, and let her come to see me immediately."

"Yes."

Tao Lei's purpose was achieved, and she quickly left the house and went straight to the small courtyard where the servant woman was held.

At this time, the king's carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.

Qu Miaoling got out of the car, "Thank you King Jue and His Royal Highness, the thief is still troubled, please try it well, I will definitely catch the master behind the scenes, and return the little woman to her innocence, Your Royal Highness Huai Yong, do you say?" ”

Situ Huaiyong glared when he heard this.

Qu Miaoling smiled lightly, then turned around and went home.

"Brother, this woman is so lawless, we-"

"Brother Huang, let's go back and interrogate that horse bandit first."

Situ Huaiyong nodded, and the two brothers left.

When Wen Rou was late, she only saw Qu Miaoling at the door.

She pretended to greet her, took Qu Miaoling's hand and asked for warmth, "You kid, why didn't you go out without saying hello, what if you encounter danger?" ”

As she spoke, Wen Rou still took a silk handkerchief to wipe her tears from the corner of her eyes, although there was not a drop of water on it.

"Mother, although my daughter was frightened, she came back safely."

When she left the house, Wen Rou, who controlled the house strictly, didn't know? The dogs didn't believe it.

"Miao Ling, thank you for your mother's concern."

"It's good to come back, you can't be naughty in the future, if something happens, how can I explain to Master Hou."

Speaking of this, Wen Rou really squeezed out tears.

Tears also hit Qu Miaoling's hand.

"Mother, don't cry, Miao Ling will definitely listen to you in the future."

Wen Rou patted Qu Miaoling's hand with "relief", "Okay, go back and rest, today is also a difficult day." ”

Seeing Qu Miaoling return to the courtyard, Tao Lei, who hurried back, said, "Madam, why didn't you tell her that the old lady called her over?" ”

"Are you stupid? I told her, doesn't it seem that I deliberately borrowed the old lady's hand to punish her? Let the old lady fix her, and I can still get a good one. ”

"Madame is clever."

In fact, there is another point, Wen Rou didn't say it, the old lady asked Qu Miaoling to hurry over, but went back to the yard to repair, obviously ignoring the old lady's words.

The punishment will be aggravated.

Thinking of this, Wen Rou smiled.

"You go and call Qingqian, I'll talk to her son."

"Yes."

Soon Wen Qingqian came in.

Her father is now just a small editor, working in the Hanlin Academy, there is no oil and water, and the income is still low, so he sent his frail daughter to Wenrou.

"Auntie, your name is Qingqian?"

"Qingqian, come, sit down and say."

Wen Qingqian sat down as he said.

"I want to know better than you that Qu Miaoling is back, safe and sound."

"But auntie, we're not—" Wen Qingqian was still young, and she was in a hurry, she grabbed the chair with her right hand, her face was panicked, and a thin red appeared on her always pale and weak face.

"Relax, those people have been dealt with, and no one will threaten us."

"That's good, auntie, you called me to—"

"Madam, the old lady was furious just now and ordered someone to press Qu Miaoling over." Peach heart to report.

"Really?" Wen Qingqian's worried face disappeared in an instant, and he gloated.

Wen Rou sat firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, she took the tea cup brought by Tao Lei and took a sip, the calmness on her face and Cheng Zhu in her chest made Wen Qingqian extremely envious.

"Auntie, this is you—"

Wen Rou put one hand to her lips and made a silent motion.

Although she didn't get an answer, Wen Qingqian was still very happy, and she concluded that all this was in her aunt's calculations.

With the help of such a person, how could she not rise to the top.

Wen Qingqian was excited, Wen Rou could naturally see that she ordered some teacups.

"Qingqian, it's your turn."

……

The old lady's monastery.

Qu Miaoling knelt on the ground, her head hanging so that people couldn't see her expression clearly.

The old lady sat on a mahogany chair with a solemn and indifferent expression.

"Old lady, Miss Wen is here." The mother-in-law suddenly came to report.

The old lady's serious expression changed instantly, as if she hadn't seen Qu Miaoling kneeling on the ground, "Please come in." ”

The tone immediately softened, as if Wen Qingqian was her own granddaughter.

"Qingqian, you haven't been here for a while, have you forgotten my old wife." The old lady's tone was ridiculous, and she didn't see the rebuke that should have been in her words.

"Grandmother, Ming Qingqian only came to see you yesterday morning, and I brought you snacks." Wen Qing pouted lightly, and then grabbed the old lady's arm.

"Yes, yes, it's the old lady who is confused!" The old lady's face was full of doting, "This granddaughter didn't say that she came to see me every day, I really don't know what to say!" ”

As she spoke, the old lady glanced at Qu Miaoling, who was kneeling.

"Qingqian, why don't you say you're not the master's daughter? Gentle and elegant, filial piety and tranquility, it is clearly a copy of the Hou Ye. The old lady sighed, and patted the back of Wen Qingqian's hand a little harder.

Wen Qingqian endured the pain, the smile on his face was bright, seeing this, the old lady's smile was even more real, the two sides were compared, one was sweet and beautiful, and the other was cold, the old lady would only prefer Wen Qingqian.

"Grandmother, what biological or not, am I not your granddaughter?" Wen Qing said softly, and leaned his head on the old lady's shoulder.

"Yes, yes, Qingqian is my own granddaughter."

The conversation between the two people above came into his ears, and the sneer on Qu Miaoling's face deepened, and at this moment, a few touches of sarcasm were added to it.

The old lady suddenly became threatening, "Qu Miaoling, you are guilty!" ”

"Grandmother, grandmother, don't get angry, watch your body."

"Having such a granddaughter is the disaster of my Wude Houfu!" The old lady's words were heavier than one sentence, and they all hit Qu Miaoling.

Qu Miaoling raised her head, her eyes were rebellious, "Grandmother, I don't know what Miaoling's crime is?" ”

The face that was raised made Wen Qing's shallow fingertips clasp tightly in her palm, and she seemed to scratch this face!

"You're not guilty?" The old lady seemed to have heard a big joke, "Do you ignore the rules of the house?" And say that you are not guilty? ”

"Grandmother, Miao Ling really doesn't know which rule she violated, would you be so angry?"

"You left the mansion without permission, don't you know that the emperor is angry with our Hou Mansion? You're causing trouble to our Hou Mansion! ”

The old lady was even angrier.

Wen Qingqian was so happy to see Qu Miaoling make a fool of herself.

"But old lady, if the Hou Mansion really provokes the emperor's anger, how can King Jue and Prince Huai Yong agree to send Miao Ling back?"

"What?"

The old lady was also shocked.

Originally, it was just a pretense to stop it, but Wen Qingqian didn't expect that this Qu Miaoling would really be able to relieve himself from the siege.

"Grandmother, in that case, do you still think Miao Ling is at fault?"

The old lady was dumbfounded, she could still say that Qu Miaoling was wrong, isn't that blatantly arguing with King Du and His Royal Highness Huai Yong?

"Grandmother, the rules in our house can't be broken!" Wen Qingqian's "kindness" reminded.

"Qu Miaoling, you are really-disrespectful! Come on, press Qu Miaoling to the ancestral hall and kneel for three days! ”

Qu Miaoling was escorted away, and on the way, she collided with Wen Rou's son Qu Chensi, "Heh, isn't this the sister who contradicted her grandmother and disobeyed her father's orders?" What, got caught? You deserve it, even if you have your father's support, you don't have to go to the ancestral hall with a disgraced face! ”

Qu Chensi's clamor Qu Miao Lingquan didn't hear it, but she could guess that her good stepmother had already released the news.

Hehe, did they think she would be defeated in this way?

They made a mistake!

"Second brother, if your father knows about your fat and powdery voice, what will he do with you?"

Qu Chensi was startled, he subconsciously sniffed his clothes, and there was clearly no smell on them.

"You woman!"

"Didn't you pressure me to go to the ancestral hall?" The two maids came back to their senses, locked Qu Miaoling in the ancestral hall and left.

Qu Miaoling's indifference made Qu Chensi jump to his feet in anger.

"Qu Miaoling, I'll see how angry you can be!"

Inside the ancestral hall, the light was dim, and the door was closed again, making it even darker.

She knelt on her knees for a long time, her knees were a little numb, she hammered her legs and continued to kneel, bitter meat tricks have always been sharp weapons.

Besides, she believed that her father would let her go.

Sure enough, Wu Dehou came back that afternoon and immediately went to see the old lady, and it didn't take long for Qu Miaoling to be released.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Qing Rou first heard that Qu Miaoling was attacked, and then heard that she was imprisoned in the ancestral hall, so she was even more anxious.

But there were people guarding outside the ancestral hall, and she couldn't get in, so she could only look like an ant on a hot pot.

Finally, the door of the ancestral hall opened, and the young lady came out.

Softly almost cried with joy.

"I'm fine, don't worry."
