As Qiao Yuyan spoke, her face even turned red. Qiao Weisheng looked at her deeply and snorted. "You are feeling ashamed now? Who did such a thing back then?!"

How could Qiao Yuyan answer at this time? She was not a fool. So she just needed to listen honestly.

After Qiao Weisheng reprimanded her a few more times, he sighed in disappointment, "Well, it's time for you to have a taste of the poor life in the nunnery. Otherwise, you won't know what to do or not to do. Your sister is sensible indeed, but you shouldn't have asked her to suffer for you. Now you should replace her."

Qiao Yuyan suddenly became excited, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. "Thank you, Dad, but please don't tell anyone. I... I want to go out quietly."

It was not that she was too careful, but that she felt that the death of Mrs. Xu was too strange. If something went wrong, she would never have a chance again.

Qiao Weisheng felt that her request was ridiculous. Just as he was about to reprimand Qiao Yuyan, he saw his trusted subordinate rush in, "Mr. Qiao..."

The man called out and then looked at Qiao Yuyan with his eyes. When she was confused, he said the latter half of the sentence, "That girl committed suicide."

Qiao Yuyan immediately understood, "It's a Mang Zhong?"

"Yes!"

Qiao Weisheng looked outside, and no one knew what he was thinking. He slowly frowned, waved his hand, and asked his subordinate to leave. Then he looked at Qiao Yuyan seriously and asked, "Who did you offend?"

Qiao Yuyan already knew who had done it in her heart, but at this time, she could only play dumb. "I... I've only been in the Capital for a year, and I don't go out so often but go to other people's houses with adults. I really haven't offended anyone!"

As Qiao Yuyan spoke, she cried again, "Dad, why... why did Mang Zhong take her own life? Did you ask someone to take her away because..."

In the end, she did not finish her sentence under her father's gaze. However, the meaning behind her words was obvious. She felt that it was his men who had beaten the servant girl to death.

Qiao Weisheng felt suffocated. In the past, he didn't agree on Old Madam's words, but at this point, it seemed that his daughter was ill-educated indeed.

How could Qiao Yuyan not know what her father was thinking at this time? But this was exactly what she needed. Qiao Yuning was good at disguising herself as a well-behaved and lovely girl. Then Qiao Yuyan would just act simple-minded!

How could a simple-minded girl do bad things?

While they were talking, someone outside reported, "Mrs. Pei is here."

No one was allowed to enter the courtyard, but Mrs. Pei wasn't stopped by anyone. Instead, her coming was reported as usual. She was really a good concubine, who had been thought highly of!

No one knew what Mrs. Pei was here for. As soon as she arrived, Qiao Weisheng drove Qiao Yuyan back to theQingxi Terrace.

Qiao Yuyan didn't bother to answer her hypocritical question. As soon as she achieved her goal, she quickly went back to her room to pack up.

When she walked to the door, she suddenly found that the maid who was sweeping the floor in the corner looked a little familiar. "Shi Ye?" she asked.

The servant girl hurried over, "Miss Qiao."

It was really her! In her previous life, only two maids had followed her to the Wen family. One was Qi Xi, and the other was Shi Ye. However, neither of them had a good ending.

Shi Ye had a short life. In less than half a year after she got married, Shi Ye died in an accident.

But Qiao Yuyan remembered the days when the three of them supported each other.

"You and I will go there together."

Although the others were puzzled by the sudden promotion of a third-class maidservant, they didn't say anything.

At present, Miss Qiao was in a hurry to go out. How could she care about anything else?

Nanny Wong had been on tenterhooks ever since she received the news, and she didn't know what to do. She only heard that Ning Xueyan had gone to the outer study. What could Ning Xueyan know about at that place?

Just as she was frightened, Qiao Yuyan came back. Then Nanny Wong packed up as she was told, went all the way out, and got in the carriage.

Since they were already in the carriage, Nanny Wong was still in a trance, "Yuyan, where are we going?"

Qi Xi was even more dazed. She was confused about what had happened today. The matter between Duke An and Qiao Yuyan had been revealed so easily. Everyone had worked hard to hide such a big thing for so long, but Qiao Yuyan had exposed it herself.

Mang Zhong was taken away, and then it was said that she committed suicide. What on earth happened in just half a day?!

And at this point, why did Qiao Yuyan go out in such a hurry?

Thinking of this, Qi Xi suddenly became clear-headed, "Miss Qiao, are we really going to the Yuehua Nunnery?"

Qi Xi had heard the conversation in the outer study in the morning, but she couldn't figure out why Qiao Yuyan had to replace Qiao Yuning.

At this time, Qiao Yuyan was only thinking about stopping Mrs. Xu from committing suicide. She had not figured out how to explain her current actions to them.

"Stop at the pharmacy in front," Qiao Yuyan turned to Nanny Wong, who was also full of doubts and could not say anything, saying "Nanny, go and find a doctor to go with us later. In addition, help me buy two kinds of pills."

"Yuyan, if you feel any discomfort..."

Qiao Yuyan interrupted her, "I've heard some things, but I don't know the details, so I can't tell you in detail now. Just do as what you are told."

Nanny Wong had been ostracized at the Qingxi Terrace. Now that Qiao Yuyan suddenly asked her for help, she was very surprised. Hearing Qiao Yuyan's words, she did not dare to say anything more and immediately left.

"Someone's following us!"

As soon as Nanny Wong came up, Qi Xi, who had been silent in the corner, suddenly spoke. Both Qi Xi and Nanny Wong were a little stunned.

Qiao Yuyan felt her heart skip a beat. As soon as she went out, she was followed. It would be strange if there were no conspiracies in her previous life.

What made her nervous was that the other party had noticed it so quickly. When she was in the outer study, there was no one to serve her in the yard at all!

"Let's keep buying things on the way, slowly go around the city gate, and then find a proper timing to go to the Yuehua Nunnery."

Qi Xi and Nanny Wong didn't know what had happened, but when they saw the rare seriousness on Qiao Yuyan's face, they kept silent, but their hearts were beating fast.

Qiao Yuyan did not explain. She just frowned and thought about something. She walked around to buy things in order to waste more time and go out before the city gate was closed. It would be best if the ones did not follow her.

If they caught up with her, she could only go to the Yuehua Nunnery first and then find a way to sneak into Qili Village.

When Qiao Yuyan finally got out of the city gate, the people of Qiyun Pavilion in the Qiao family finally received the news.

"Mrs. Pei, the Eldest Young Lady's carriage has been buying things all the way. Finally, she went out of the city to the Yuehua Nunnery. The news from Mr. Qiao's study just came. It seems that the Eldest Young Lady mentioned to Mr. Qiao that she wanted to go to the Yuehua Nunnery to replace Yuning today. I have asked someone to follow her. After confirming that Qiao Yuyan went to the Yuehua Nunnery, they would come back to report."
