“Pinyao’s body is too weak. Consuming tonic might not be effective for her.”

Qin Yi did not dare to let Wei Pinyao consume Feng Ruqing’s food. What if… she poisoned the food again?

However, Pin Yao was not like Zhangqian, he could bear it until it went away. Her body was too weak, and the suffering was definitely too much for her!

Suddenly, a gentle voice could be heard from nearby.

“Eh, Her Royal Highness is here. Sister Qin Yi, why didn’t you invite her inside for tea?”

Qin Yi’s expression turned dark instantly. Her face showed a little anger.

Feng Ruqing raised her eyebrows and diverted her attention to this woman who was walking slowly from the inner part of the courtyard.

This woman was around thirty years old but was still dressed like a young maiden. She had a round hand fan in her hand, dressed up to the nines with heavy makeup. She smiled like a blooming flower, garish and beautiful, but it did not last long.

Feng Ruqing recognized the woman immediately.

This was the Wei family’s second young lady, Wei Mengjie, also Wei Pinyao’s stepsister who shared the same father but different mothers.

This Wei Mengjie’s obvious affection and interest in Qin Xun was no secret to everyone. She had not agreed to any marriage arrangement because she wanted to get her way to become his concubine.

“Wei Mengjie, I thought you came here to visit Pinyao. However, you keep throwing yourself at Qin Xun. What are you actually trying to do?” Qin Yi glared at her coldly and chided her without mercy.

As a woman, it was natural for her to have a bad impression of Wei Mengjie and loathed her behavior. She had a thick face and kept using visiting Pinyao as an excuse for her to enter the Qin residence.

If the Qin family chased her out forcefully, perhaps, she might spread rumors about Pinyao.

For the sake of Pinyao’s reputation and Mengjie indeed did not do anything overboard, she closed one eye on her behavior.

“My sister’s health is poor, so I cannot keep disturbing her rest. I can only help her take care of brother-in-law, in case… n.o.body takes care of him. Pity him.”

“This is totally presumptuous!” Qin Yi was fuming with rage. “Are you implying there’s n.o.body else in the Qin residence? No matter what the situation is, there’s no need for an outsider to take care of my brother!”

She had purposely stressed on the word ‘outsider’ which annoyed Wei Mengjie. She seemed unsatisfied, which was shown in her frown.

Why was she treated as an outsider, but Wei Pinyao could be their own people? She was just a hen which was unable to lay eggs. How could she have the nerve to occupy the position of the young lady of the Qin Family? Didn’t she feel ashamed of herself?

“Sister Qin Yi…” Wei Mengjie eyed the meal box Feng Ruqing brought and smiled knowingly. “Her Royal Highness has dropped by to visit my sister. It is not nice of you to stop her. Moreover, she has even brought some food for her. Could it be possible that… you are afraid she might poison my sister?”

Feng Ruqing shrugged helplessly. She solely intended to pay Wei Pinyao a short visit. Why was she in trouble again?

“Wei Mengjie, are you aware of your words right now?” Qin Yi’s eyes turned cold and serious. She took two steps forward and rebuked, “Firstly, the princess is considered a relative of Pinyao’s, so it’s normal for her to pay Pinyao a visit. However, you claiming that Her Royal Highness has poisoned the food will definitely tarnish her reputation! What are the consequences of making false charges against Princess Royal?”

Wei Mengjie was caught dumbfounded.

Didn’t Qin Yi dislike Feng Ruqing very much? How could she be angry about the princess’s reputation’s sake?

In addition, her words were intended to serve as a reminder for Qin Yi. If she managed to annoy Qin Yi and cause her to fight with the princess, it would be the best.

However, she never thought that she would be dragged into this planned dispute…

“Your Royal Highness, I did not mean that.” Wei Mengjie quickly turned to Feng Ruqing and defended herself anxiously.

Feng Ruqing nodded calmly. “Yes, I know that is your intention.”

“It’s good that Your Highness knows…”

Wei Mengjie could not finish her words as she was startled. Why did she feel that… something was wrong with the princess’s words?
