Hearing the words “Purity Garden”, Mo Junhao changed his expression. He glared at Qin Yanyan ferociously and asked in a rage, “What are you going to do?”

Qin Yanyan replied, “I said any other woman can, but Shi Qingxue can’t. If you insist on marrying her, I will ruin her.”

“You!” Mo Junhao looked ghostly pale and stared at Qin Yanyan. “So last time it was you…”

“It was me!” Qin Yanyan didn’t hide it from him anymore but admitted, “If I didn’t fear that you would be hurt, I would have already killed that bitch. How could she come to our mansion to steal my husband?”

She looked horrible, with deep hatred but felt happy. “But this time, nobody can save her. The Purity Garden. I remember that you still have some guests staying there. I don’t know who would have the chance to touch her or how many men can sleep with her. Don’t worry. Even if your people can’t get any profit, I have prepared entertainment for her…

Gee, I want to know if she is not pure anymore, will you still want to marry her as your wife?”

“You!” Mo Junhao pointed at Qin Yanyan and it took him a long time to restrain his anger. Then he turned around to rush to the Purity Garden.

He didn’t have time to talk with this crazy woman. He had to take Shi Qingxue out as soon as possible.

But Qin Yanyan suddenly rushed to hug him and didn’t let him go. “Don’t go! As long as you don’t leave, I will let you marry her. Otherwise, even if I use up my family’s power, I won’t allow you to marry her!”

Mo Junhao had to stop and shook off Qin Yanyan’s hands impatiently. “What the hell do you mean?”

“Didn’t you say that you marry her just because of the power behind her? Then no matter if she has done something with other men, it wouldn’t affect your marriage to her, right?”

Qin Yanyan smiled complacently and said with full confidence, “As long as you don’t mind what happens in the Purity Garden, it’s okay. Then if you want to marry her, I won’t stop you but will help you persuade my father to agree.”

“I don’t need you to agree,” Mo Junhao answered coldly.

“Yes?” Qin Yanyan fiddled with her handkerchief casually. “After all, my father is the prime minister of the country. If he joins hands with his followers to support the third prince or the crown prince, do you think you will have any chances to win the fight for the position of the heir to the throne?”

Mo Junhao turned pale and didn’t speak a word.

Now he was almost well-matched in strength with Mo Junjiu, and they could do nothing to each other. If Qin Shirong followed somebody else at this crucial time, Mo Junhao would definitely lose!

“No, your father wouldn’t do that. You are my side concubine. Even if he supports Mo Junjiu, my suspicious brother wouldn’t believe him. Moreover, it will do no good to you,” Mo Junhao remained coldly.

But Qin Yanyan looked like she was crazy, in a nervy state. “I don’t want any good. Shi Qingxue once ruined my fame and made me become your side concubine. I want to pay her back a thousand times more!

I will do it at any cost. If you don’t believe me, you can have a try!”

Mo Junhao kept silent and knew that Qin Yanyan was not joking.

Since he didn’t speak, the depression and craziness on Qin Yanyan’s face disappeared. She smiled again and said lively, “Don’t be unhappy. My plan will be greatly helpful to you.”

Mo Junhao frowned. “What do you mean?”

“Don’t tell me that you are unaware that Shi Qingxue doesn’t like you at all!” Qin Yanyan told the truth, straight to the heart of the matter.

She looked with pleasure at Mo Junhao, who was unable to reply, showing a stiffened expression. Then she continued leisurely, “She is so arrogant, as if she can win any man’s heart, and how can she have any interest in you? But if she falls into the abyss and becomes a slut condemned by the public, do you think she will be haughty?

Then nobody would want to marry her. If you propose marriage to her, she would surely take you as a life-saving straw and use all the power of the Shi Family to help you in case that you abandon her. Isn’t it what you want?”

Mo Junhao was speechless and scared by Qin Yanyan’s fantasy.

He stayed silent for a while and still frowned. After a long time, he looked at Qin Yanyan coldly. “You are insane.”

Qin Yanyan didn’t think that he was cursing her but laughed joyfully. “Who isn’t insane in this world?

What do you think? Your Highness, how about you go to have a seat in your study first? Let’s watch a good show together later, okay?”

Mo Junhao knew what Qin Yanyan meant. If he agreed, it meant that he approved her plan to ruin Shi Qingxue. In fact, he had no other choice. At the critical time, he couldn’t lose the Qin Clan’s support. Moreover, what Qin Yanyan said made sense.

Shi Qingxue lost her confidence!

Then wouldn’t she be at his mercy?

Mo Junhao tacitly approved and restrained his anger. At the thought that his loved woman would sleep with somebody else, he wanted to kill. If he had known it earlier, he should have slept with her first. He looked at Qin Yanyan and warned her with useless words.

“Don’t go too far.”

Qin Yanyan smiled and watched Mo Junhao walking to his study. She murmured, “I won’t go too far. I will keep her alive.”

But she was not sure if Shi Qingxue would go crazy because she couldn’t bear the blow.

“Liang’er, let’s go to the backyard. Today I am the focus of attention. I can’t let that bitch steal the show every time.”

Qin Yanyan’s pretty face flushed out of excitement. She walked with a few little hops.

When they reached the backyard, all the noble ladies talked and laughed in twos and threes. They greeted her after seeing her.

Qin Yanyan accepted their greetings and just nodded occasionally, putting on the airs.

They chatted happily, and somebody suddenly asked, “Why is Lady Qingxue not here?”

“Is she absent again?” Another lady next to her asked in a low voice.

The daughter of the Minister of Penalty, Luo Wenmei started to expose the news. “Lady Liu sent some people in person to bring her here. She must have come, but she is not present now… Doesn’t she have the courage to meet us?”

Shi Baoning frowned and looked at Luo Wenmei with resentment. “Qingxue is aboveboard. Why would she have no courage to meet you?”

Luo Wenmei responded, “I don’t know. Or do you say that Lady Qingxue disdains to greet His Highness’s wife so she avoids meeting her?”

“Gee, it’s said that Lady Qingxue always loves His Highness. Now she must be hiding somewhere and crying as Lady Qin is favored by him.”

The voice was from the crowd, and they couldn’t tell who had said that before most of them laughed.

Shi Baoning was speechless. She just looked at the entrance and thought where Shi Qingxue was. Just now Jing Yi said that she saw Qingxue coming in from the side door.

At this time, a maid ran over in a hurry and came close to Qin Yanyan’s ear but reported in a voice loud enough to make others hear, “My Lady, bad news. Lady Qingxue entered the Purity Garden.”

“The Purity Garden?” Qin Yanyan shouted, as if she was afraid that others couldn’t hear her. Then she asked seriously on purpose, “How could you let her in?”

That maid felt wrong. “She insisted on entering, and I failed to stop her.”

“Bastard, didn’t you tell her what kind of place it is?”

“I told her, but she didn’t listen. Instead, she insisted on walking inside…”

Qin Yanyan didn’t need to say more, and there was an uproar in the backyard.

A young lady who didn’t know that asked, “What kind of place is the Purity Garden in this mansion?”

An older lady explained, “You don’t know that? Every noble family provides for some singing girls to give others as gifts or for entertainment. His Highness let them stay in the Purity Garden.”

There was a surprised voice. “Then isn’t it…”

“Gee, it’s my first time to hear that a noble lady went to somewhere like that. It’s so humiliating.”

Shi Baoning glared at the speaker and asked coldly, “Luo Wenmei, what are you talking about?”

Luo Wenmei shrank her neck after the howl, but soon she looked at Shi Baoning as if nothing had happened. “What am I talking about? I am telling the truth. She went to the Purity Garden. I feel embarrassed to say that. She is shameless, but I have to care about my dignity.”

“You!” Shi Baoning trembled with anger, but she was not good at arguing and couldn’t retort.

Qin Yanyan announced in time, “Well, stop bickering. We don’t know how Qingxue is now. Let’s go to have a look first.”

Luo Wenmei laughed, delight in the misfortunes of others. “We are going to watch a good play.”

All the noble ladies came to the door of the Purity Garden. Qin Yanyan was about to walk inside, but Liang’er pulled her arm and advised in a low voice, “My Lady, you’d better not go in.”

Qin Yanyan wanted to see Shi Qingxue fall into a quagmire and get a bad name, but Liang’er reminded her that the Purity Garden was not a place which they should enter.

But how would she catch them making out if she didn’t come in?

Qin Yanyan didn’t say anything but looked back at the anxious noble ladies behind her. Then someone pointed at the garden and shouted, “Well, it seems that there is a coat falling on the ground in the garden. Baoning, have a look at it. Is that Lady Qingxue’s?”

Shi Baoning looked at it after hearing that and her pale face stiffened. She didn’t need to say a word, but others knew her answer.

Chen Xiujiao moved close to Qin Yanyan and incited her, “My Lady, although the unmarried girls should consider our status and can’t go into such a place, Qingxue is trapped inside and might be waiting for us to enter and save her. If we stand aside and something wrong happens to her, what should she do?”

Luo Wenmei echoed, “Right. We can’t be completely indifferent when watching Qingxue in trouble. Moreover, there are so many of us together. It’s clear at a glance whether we are innocent. Others can’t frame us even if they want to.”

The law failed where violators were legion. In addition, they had a perfect excuse as they would save someone.

Qin Yanyan led all the ladies into the Purity Garden instantly.

Of course, in order not to watch something too obscene, Qin Yanyan told Liang’er and two guards to lead the way and kick out anybody irrelevant.

Shi Baoning felt restless and wanted to prevent this farce, but she couldn’t when she saw one and another garment showing on the ground.

At first, it was the coat, and then the outer dress, underwear, underpants…

Shi Baoning turned ghostly pale and panicked to see that.

“Ha, they are having a good time. It’s surprising that Qingxue looks pure but is good at playing!” Luo Wenmei sighed with emotion and laughed sarcastically.

Shi Baoning quivered at her provocation. “Don’t talk nonsense. Qingxue is not like what you said. Don’t cast wild aspersions at her.”

Luo Wenmei responded, “Can you say that the clothes all over the ground are not Shi Qingxue’s? What do you think she wears after taking off all these?”

Someone whispered, “It’s beyond my expectation. I used to think that Lady Qingxue looks naïve and isn’t like someone who would do something like this.”

“Who knows? You can’t judge a person by the appearance. The most famous hooker in a brothel always looks like a noble lady, but when she is in bed…” Another lady had a scornful expression. “The Shi Family has such a shameful girl and would have a loss of respect and honor.”
