“There are different opinions. Some people say that he was tortured to death by the Empress’s brother.

...

“But what is more believable is that he must have died at the hands of those few young masters in the residence of the Empress’s brother, as well as the wife and concubines,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

Xiangyang was shocked again.

“I don’t need you to choose between Young Master Liu and your uncle.

“Henceforth, I only hope that you can treat Young Master Liu with equanimity. After all, he is my guest.

“Are you able to do it?” Qin Xiaoyao asked.

It was normal for people to discriminate between those who were close to them or distant from them.

To Qin Xiaoyao, the Empress’s brother was definitely not a good person, but to Xiangyang, he might be an elder who loved her.

Xiangyang felt a surge of emotions in her heart.

“Mm-hmm.” After a while, she finally nodded.

However, she was still a little unconvinced in her heart. She made up her mind that she had to investigate this matter personally.

Qin Xiaoyao couldn’t be bothered with her anymore and went back to her room.

Over the next few days, Qin Xiaoyao continued to visit Cloud Scent Court.

Yun Niang was indeed a big help to Qin Xiaoyao, The former introduced her to a reliable broker.

Thereafter, she also helped to pull strings to enable Qin Xiaoyao to buy a small courtyard dwelling across the street from the Marquis’s residence and open a workshop.

Liu Ling was not idle either. After learning of Qin Xiaoyao’s plan, he took the initiative to offer to help her.

He helped Qin Xiaoyao to pick seven or eight people to sign irredeemable indentures and sent them to the workshop in preparation for work.

Qin Xiaoyao saw that Liu Ling was experienced in management matters and could read and write. She could not help having some ideas in her mind.

In addition, Liu Ling actually came to her to offer his help. After hesitating for a while, Qin Xiaoyao temporarily handed the workshop to Liu Ling to manage on her behalf.

It was mainly to arrange some early-stage preparatory work, manage the workers in the workshop, and arrange the accommodation of the workers.

These matters were numerous and a little complicated, but they were not very important matters.

After the workshop went into operation, Qin Xiaoyao took Xiangyang to check on the situation several times.

Qin Xiaoyao was pleased to find that the place was orderly and the number of century eggs produced by the workshop every day was above the quota she had set.

Thus, she began to think highly of Liu Ling.

As for Xiangyang, her attitude towards Liu Ling had also changed greatly.

When the two first met, Xiangyang did not like Liu Ling as she sided with her own uncle.

However, after her investigation, she actually felt apologetic toward Liu Ling.

From time to time, she would approach Liu Ling, wanting to talk to him or do something for him.

At first, Liu Ling was still fearful and avoided her. However, after realizing that Xiangyang did not have any ill intentions, he slowly became familiar with her.

As Qin Xiaoyao had hoped, the two guests lived in harmony in the Marquis’s residence.

In the army camp, after Qin Xiaoyao finished her work, she went to look for Prince Huaiyin.

It had already been half a month since she came to the capital. Now, she had already settled down in the Marquis’s residence and opened her workshop.

The biggest worry in her heart had not been resolved. Her husband was still missing.

When he learned the purpose of Qin Xiaoyao’s visit, Prince Huaiyin’s expression displayed conflicting emotions.

However, this look of conflicting emotions gave Qin Xiaoyao hope.

“Have you found him? Your Highness, where is my husband?” Qin Xiaoyao asked excitedly.

Prince of Huaiyin glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and sighed.

“Why must you insist on looking for him? Have you ever thought that after you found him, the outcome might not be what you think?”

Qin Xiaoyao’s heart sank.

“What does Your Highness mean? Did something happen to my husband?” Her expression immediately turned ominous.

If anyone dared to hurt her husband, she would definitely make that person pay a hundredfold.

Upon seeing this, Prince Huaiyin couldn’t help but envy Song Que.

“He’s fine,” he continued.

Qin Xiaoyao heaved a sigh of relief.

“Then what happened exactly?” she quickly asked Prince Huaiyin.

Prince Huaiyin gave Qin Xiaoyao a look full of conflicting emotions.

“I have indeed found him. But…”

“But what?” Qin Xiaoyao was anxious, and her tone became somewhat hostile.

Prince Huaiyin didn’t mind. Instead, he looked troubled.

In the end, he still spoke up before Qin Xiaoyao could ask again.

“But he is now a live-in guest in Minister Shen’s residence and is very close to the Eldest Young Miss of the Shen family.

“There is news that Minister Shen intends to have Song Que marry into his family.”

Qin Xiaoyao’s body trembled, and actually swayed a little.

Then, she quickly stabilized herself and calmed her mind.

“It’s just a rumor,” she said.

Prime Minister Shen, the brother-in-law of Empress Jia, was also Empress Jia’s greatest helper in the Imperial Court.

Hubby held a grudge against Empress Jia. Why would he help the enemy’s lackey?

Perhaps the person Prince Huaiyin found was not her husband.

Even if it was really her husband, there must be a reason behind this turn of events.

Yes, that must be the case.

Prince Huaiyin gave Qin Xiaoyao a conflicted look.

“He has been recommended by Minister Shen and is now stationed in the Ministry of Rites to help handle the peace talks with the Liao State.

“If you want to see him, you can follow me to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow,” Prince Huaiyin said.

Qin Xiaoyao’s heart trembled.

“Alright!” she answered.

Following that, Qin Xiaoyao did not know how she left Prince Huaiyin’s tent.

She only knew that by the time she came to her senses, she had already returned to the Marquis’s residence.

Princess Xiangyang was still prattling to her non-stop. When the girl saw that Qin Xiaoyao was absent-minded, and when she replied, she only replied with one or two words, the young girl’s face puffed up with anger.

“Gosh, Master! Are you even listening to me?

“Your mother-in-law and the others will arrive in the capital tomorrow. Shall we go out of the city to pick them up?” the young girl continued.

Qin Xiaoyao finally regained her senses.

“Mother and the others have arrived in the capital…” she muttered.

That was right. It had been a while since she sent them the letter.

After they received the letter, if they had set off quickly, they would be arriving any time now.

Qin Xiaoyao suppressed the turmoil in her heart and immediately asked, “When will they arrive?”

“Tomorrow morning probably.

“Let’s go out of the city to pick them up so that they don’t have to queue up to enter the city.

“There are many people entering the capital’s south city gate every day. If they line up to be let through, they will have to wait a long time.”

Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

“Alright. Then tomorrow morning, we’ll go pick them up,” she replied.

Since Prince Huaiyin had confirmed that her husband was in the Ministry of Rites, it was fine for her to go a day later.

The right thing to do was to help Mother and the others settle down first.

She also needed to sort out her emotions.

She thought about how she should ask her husband about Minister Shen after she met him.

“Mm-hmm!” Xiangyang immediately answered.

At the same time, she was looking forward to meeting her master’s family.

Hehe! Her master was so nice. Her master’s family would definitely be nice as well.

And she was so cute. They would definitely like her.

The next day, early in the morning, Xiangyang ran over to wake Qin Xiaoyao up.

Qin Xiaoyao didn’t sleep well the whole night and was really woken up by Xiangyang.

After washing up, Qin Xiaoyao brought Xiangyang out of the residence.

They left the city and waited outside the city gate.

Before long, two carriages arrived.

“Younger Sis!”

“Sanya!”

From afar, Qin Xiaoyao heard two familiar voices.

As she traced the source of the voice, Qin Xiaoyao saw her big brother and father..
