In the boudoir late at night, Qu Tan'er's bare shoulders looked particularly attractive under the candlelight, but the bloodstains and dense needles on her back made people unbearable to look at.All this is thanks to the eldest lady, and at this moment, her personal maid Jing Xin is carefully wiping her wounds.
When she married into the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Qu Tan'er could have brought some medicinal materials with her in case of emergencies, but the superstitious lady thought it would bring bad luck and insisted on throwing away all these things.Now, Qu Tan'er was seriously injured and Jing Xin had no choice but to seek help from the Eighth Prince Mo Liancheng.However, when Mo Liancheng was mentioned, Qu Tan'er's expression changed and she uttered evil words.
In desperation, Jing Xin had no choice but to go to the kitchen to get some boiled eggs to give Qu Tan'er a hot compress.Lying alone on the bed, Qu Tan'er had a lot of thoughts.The incident of being robbed of her first kiss during the day made her angrier and angrier as she thought about it, and couldn't help but curse.At this moment, Mo Liancheng entered the room silently and sat behind her.
There was a sharp pain in her back. Qu Tan'er thought it was Jing Xin who came back to wipe it for her, so she continued to insult Mo Liancheng.However, when she turned around and saw Mo Liancheng's dissatisfied face, she screamed in fright and quickly wrapped her body in a quilt, leaving only one head exposed.
Although Mo Liancheng was dissatisfied, he did not bear any grudge against Qu Tan'er.In order to teach her a lesson, he wanted to convict her of insulting the royal family.After hearing this, Qu Tan'er panicked. She didn't want to spend a long time in prison.So, she immediately changed her attitude and spoke kind words to Mo Liancheng in a milky voice.
Mo Liancheng didn't care about her change of attitude, he just asked her to answer some questions.After listening to Qu Tan'er's own words, Mo Liancheng felt distressed.It turns out that when she was in Qu Mansion, the eldest lady often used acupuncture on Qu Tan'er, causing her back to be scarred.However, Mo Liancheng was still doubtful and asked Qu Tan'er to prove that what he said was true.
Qu Tan'er refused to accept it and wrapped herself in the quilt, exposing half of her back for Mo Liancheng to examine.Mo Liancheng asked her to continue retreating because he could not see clearly, and the distance between the two became closer and closer.Just when the atmosphere was tense, Jing Xin suddenly came back with boiled eggs to break the awkward situation.Mo Liancheng asked Jing Xin to serve Qu Tan'er well and then left the room, leaving Qu Tan'er sitting on the bed worriedly.
At the same time, a figure of a woman wearing silk and satin appeared furtively in a corner of the Eighth Prince's Mansion.She stuffed a written note into a movable stone brick and hurried away.This scene was clearly seen by Yu Hao, who was secretly observing, and he immediately reported the matter to Mo Liancheng.
Mo Liancheng takes this matter very seriously. He suspects that this is Miss Qu Er's action to find the emperor's order.At the same time, the emperor summoned the eldest prince and the eighth prince to discuss the border war.Mo Liancheng pointed out the key to the problem and won the emperor's praise.
In the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Qu Tan'er was unbearably hungry and urged Jing Xin to go to the kitchen to look for food.Jing Xin came back with bad news - Mo Liancheng was urgently summoned to the palace by the emperor.This news made Qu Tan'er feel uneasy and she began to think about how to deal with the next situation.
Jing Xin searched all the rooms in the palace but found no trace of the ancient bed.Only Mo Liancheng's dormitory could not be entered.This made Qu Tan'er start thinking about this dormitory.She decided to venture into the dormitory to find the ancient bed.
Just as the Grand Prince left the palace, two mysterious men and women in cloaks descended from the sky.They proposed a tempting deal to the great prince - to help him ascend to the throne, but the condition was that he must get the soul-soothing beads in the imperial study in exchange.In order to realize his ambition, the prince agreed to their request without hesitation.
Mo Liancheng's bedroom was so luxurious that Qu Tan'er was amazed.She looked around the room and finally found the ancient bed she was looking for.Seeing this bed song, Tan'er seemed to see the hope of returning to modern times.She excitedly picked up the vase collected by Mo Liancheng and planned to take it back and sell it at a good price to compensate for the hardships she had suffered during this period.
However, just as she was lying on the bed preparing to travel through time, she found Mo Liancheng standing in front of her and staring at her angrily.Qu Tan'er was so frightened that she screamed and pushed Mo Liancheng away and sat up.Mo Liancheng was very angry at Qu Tan'er's behavior. He thought she ventured into his dormitory for the emperor's order.He asked Qu Tan'er to commit suicide to prove his innocence.
Qu Tan'er tried to threaten Mo Liancheng on the grounds that she was the daughter of Qu Shangshu.However, Mo Liancheng had already had countermeasures to cleverly refute her remarks.While the two were still arguing, an assassin suddenly appeared in the house. He held Qu Tan'er hostage and threatened Mo Liancheng.However, Mo Liancheng showed no concern. He took advantage of the assassin's distraction and waved his dart to kill the assassin in one fell swoop.
Qu Tan'er was frightened and stood there in a daze.Mo Liancheng ordered his servants to send her back to the room.Yu Hao searched the assassin and found a note stating that the imperial order was in Mo Liancheng's room.This note became the key evidence for Mo Liancheng to find the person who wrote it.
