<Madam Qu's Quarter>

"You're saying that he visited that b*tch quarter?" Madam Qu's eyes widened when she listened to the servants' words. After so many years, he remembered that b*tch again and decided to pay a visit to her quarter?

Didn't he hate her so much?

At this thought, Madam Qu's body trembled. She looked at the servants around her with hatred. "You should have stopped him!"

The servants were all terrified as they dropped to the ground and begged for mercy. Right now, they all only thought about how they could get away from the angry Madam Qu. They couldn't possibly do anything when Nan Shu Cheng went to visit that quarter.

What right did they have?

Madam Qu knew that, but she was so angry when she thought of how Nan Shu Cheng still visited that b*tch quarter. Back then, she took a lot of efforts in order to be able to make Nan Shu Cheng paid more attention to her and no longer cared about that woman.

Since Madam Nan often quarreled with Nan Shu Cheng over many things, Madam Qu always made sure that she would be the save and peaceful place for Nan Shu Cheng to stay. That way, she managed to pull him over and made him care for her and only her.

Prang!

"Don't let that b*tch get away!"

"Madam, there's another problem. Concubine Mu is checking the past years' finance."

Madam Qu, who was about to explode in anger, paused in her steps. She furrowed her eyebrows before her eyes shot towards the servants. "Why don't you stop her?"

"This.. this servant…"

"Useless!"

More and more porcelains were broken as Madam Qu was in rage. The servants around her couldn't really do anything as they watched Madam Qu smashed those precious porcelains.

They were having complicated feelings.

More and more trouble seemed to spurt out.

The next day, the weather was good.

"Miss, there's a message from Old Master that he'll return tomorrow." Mu Yan came to give a report.

Tomorrow?

Hearing that, Nan Hua was not surprised. Her grandfather must have heard of the incident during Empress Selection. For him to wait until Emperor's marriage was over was because he didn't want to attend that party.

It might have been too much of a hassle in his opinion.

Now that His Majesty had married and his legs would have been mostly healed, Old Master Nan decided that it was time for him to go back to the Capital City. And when Old Master Nan was back, Nan Hua would leave the residence.

"It seems that the last show is for today." Nan Hua stood up and her two servants immediately helped her to change her outer robe.

It has been less than one month since Nan Hua returned to the Capital City but the Nan Family had been experiencing up and downs countless times. The time was ripe and troubles kept on coming from inside and outside.

It hasn't been a peaceful three weeks for Nan Shu Cheng.

Nan Hua had never planned to make it so. Naturally, since the time was ripe, she would not hesitate to strike and make a good use of the chance that was presented before her. Nan Hua has never been a hesitant person. Since she dared to make the plan, she would also dare to follow it until the end.

It didn't take long for Nan Hua to reach the place where Concubine Mu was located. Looking at the other party, Nan Hua knew that Concubine Mu had already found out that the finance record was flawed.

"Concubine Mu."

"First Young Miss." Concubine Mu quickly stood up and curtsied. She showed a bitter smile. "My apologies for not greeting you first, First Young Miss."

"It's fine, the record must have been quite problematic."

"Yes. This is only part of them, but I found out that there are a lot of funds that are transferred without trace. The calculation didn't add up at all." Concubine Mu sighed when she thought about this matter.

The household has been in Madam Qu's hands for so many years, which meant that the only person who could possibly do this was her. However, there was still the question of where she actually used the funds for.

"I see."

Nan Hua looked at the stack of scrolls on the table. "It'll be better if you keep those and carry them all the time, Concubine Mu."

"Yes?" Concubine Mu was stunned by Nan Hua's words. But thinking of how much Madam Qu would want to destroy the evidences, she chuckled as a cold glint appeared inside her eyes.

She was not an ambitious person and chose to stay low because she didn't want to get involved in those matter. But seeing hos the funds were transferred by Madam Qu covertly like this, she didn't feel that good.

Since Madam Qu was no longer in power, wouldn't it be better for her to settle this matter too?

"Have you known about this and how this will develop?" Concubine Mu asked in a low voice.

"How is it possible?"

Nan Hua might be able to guess some things, but she was not omnipotent. How things actually developed would not always be the same. All she could do was to direct the trajectory of things that occurred so that it would be the same as how she wanted it to be.

But how people did things, she couldn't control them. They could decide what they wanted to do. All she did was simply to influence them to be able to act in accordance to how she wanted it to be.

But it would not always be the same as what she planned.

Concubine Mu chuckled lightly and looked at the pile in front of her. She waved her hand to her servant. "Inform Master, I would like to see him."

"Yes, Mistress."

"So…"

Before Concubine Mu could finish speaking, there was shouting coming from the other direction.

"FIRE!"

"THERE'S FIRE!"

"Water!"

"Where's water?"
