Half an hour later Qin Jiu left Ronghe Hall dazedly, she did not understand what was happening to Old Madam Qin today, she was acting differently as if she was a different person.

“Du Ruo…” Qin Jiu looked at Du Ruo who walking beside her, holding a food box that contained a milk poria cream given by Old Madam Qin.

Du Ruo waited for Qin Jiu to finish her sentence but the latter turned her head back to the road and continued to walk forward against the cold wind.

Forget it. Qin Jiu thought that since the changes were beneficial to her it was all good.

Qin Jiu had only taken two or three steps when she remembered another matter and suddenly stopped.

“By the way, Du Ruo, what does yijue mean?”

Qin Jiu was listening to Old Madam Qin but in fact, she didn’t understand what she meant.

She only knew that in ancient times there were repudiations and divorces. The former was a man abandoning his wife in the name of “seven out”*, while the latter should be equivalent to a peaceful breakup?

(*seven reasons, mainly: adultery, filial piety.. and so on)

What about yijue?

Du Ruo was surprised at Qin Jiu’s confused eyes, but soon understand the reason: Ai, miss is so pitiful. No one taught her even this common sense.

Du Ruo straightened out her thoughts and quickly explained: “Just like Madam Xiao this time if it is proven that the heir’s consort was the one poisoned Madam Xiao, the heir’s consort who is related to Duan Wangye but not to Madam Xiao, since the heir is not her son, according to Daqi’s law Madam Xiao can divorce Duan Wangye, even if Duan Wangye refuses it will be useless.”

Qin Jiu then realized that it was what a forced divorce was!

No wonder Gu Zezhi took the trouble to get those monks from Bogo state to the capital.

Qin Jiu pondered as she nodded: “This is not bad!”

Otherwise, she’s afraid Duan Wangye would make it more complicated.

Qin Jiu heard Wang momo say last time that Duan Wangye would go to Jinyu Alley almost every day, even if he couldn’t get in, he would wander in front of the gate for more than an hour before leaving with a sigh.

Qin Jiu doesn’t sympathize with Duan Wangye at all. In her opinion, Duan Wangye has forced his wife away, and he still wants to put on an affectionate gesture at this time. Who was he trying to show it to?

At this time, a young maidservant in green going in the direction of Ronghe Hall walked with hurried steps, originally Qin Jiu did not care, but as soon as that young maidservant saw Qin Jiu, she immediately came towards her and eagerly reported, “Third Miss, something has happened to Eldest Master!”

Qin Jiu’s pair of eyes slightly widened as she asked, “What happened to big brother?”

“Third Miss, Zhang Chen said that master fell off the horse and was injured so he asked this servant to report to old madam. Zhang Chen is still in the front yard.” The young maidservant hurriedly replied.

Zhang Chen was Qin Zening’s personal servant. For him to come here and report, this matter must be serious.

“I’ll go take a look.” Qin Jiu turned around and went to the front yard.

Zhang Chen was walking back and forth outside the gate; he was already waiting impatiently as his face profusely sweats.

Seeing Qin Jiu approaching, Zhang Chen quickly curtsied and did not wait for her to ask as he said first: “Third Miss, the eldest master made an appointment with some masters today because Master Pei just got a new horse, and met Fifth Master Su on the way…”

“Wait.” Qin Jiu interrupted him and asked, “Who is Fifth Master Su again?”

The interpersonal relationship in the capital was too complicated, and she hasn’t been able to sort it out yet. However, this fifth master Su, this familiar Su surname, was he connected to the marquis family?

Zhang Chen said: “He is the madam’s nephew, and is a frequent visitor here in our marquis mansion, but has always been at odds with the eldest master.”

The fifth son of the Su family, this Master Su likes to hang out in the red-light district alley most of the day, and because of his uncle’s background, he bullies others with his power. While Qin Zening and his friends don’t really care about him since they never played together and were on a different group of friends.

Qin Jiu: “…… you continue.”

Zhang Chen began to talk with more details.

To say it in a simpler way, that was, this fifth master Su first took the initiative to provoke Qin Zening and proposed to compete with the latter.

Qin Zening was good at martial arts and they as the son of noble families in the capital have their own pride. If someone challenges them and they refused, retreating without fighting was more shameful than losing. Besides everyone knows that in terms of riding and shooting, Qin Zening was far more better than the incompetent Fifth Master Su.

So, after Master Pei and other masters who were with them made fuzz, Qin Zening agreed.

Unexpectedly, during the competition, Qin Zening accidentally fell off the horse.

Due to the accident, Qin Zening hurt his leg and couldn’t move for a while. Master Pei and the others were afraid that he hurt his bones so they didn’t dare to move him casually and ordered Zhang Chen to go to the marquis manor to ask for a physician. Zhang Chen wanted to come back first and report to Old Madam Qin, and then took a carriage to ask for a physician.

“I’ll go too.”

Qin Jiu said decisively and then asked someone to call Qin Zeyu, before asking Zhang Chen where Qin Zening was now. She then sent Zhang Chen to ask for a physician and took Qin Zeyu there first.

Qin Zening and the others were in the western suburbs of the capital.

After coming back from winter hunting, Qin Jiu practice riding a horse whenever she has free time, and with Qin Zening’s advice after two months of practice, she was already a qualified beginner and could ride decently.

From a distance, Qin Jiu saw that Qin Zening was sitting against a tree, and seemed unable to move. There were seven or eight handsome young men around him, including Master Pei, whom Qin Jiu had seen once before, while she did not recognize the others.

Five or six steps away, there was a white-faced young man of seventeen or eighteen years old in a blue robe and behind him were two or three young men with greasy faces and thin bodies.

Before Qin Jiu could even get closer, she heard fifth master Su say sarcastically: “…this master is right, Qin Zening ah Qin Zening, with your meager ability you still want to enter the fifth military battalion and want to compete against me, are you even worthy?”
