Meanwhile, two hidden guards were carrying Fifth Young Sir Qin out from the Guo’an Estate. The latter tightly clutched the thin white robe wrapped around him.
Once they got out of the Guo’an Estate, the fifth young sir wanted to get down and walk on his own. However, his body was extremely limp, causing him to trip and fall.
His personal boy servant Ling’ge helped him up and wailed, “Young, Young Sir, h-how are you?”
“Help, help me back.” As the fifth young sir gripped Ling’ge’s hand tightly, the latter could feel the terror shaking deep within his young sir’s soul.
Once they returned to the Qin Estate, Fifth Qin shut himself in his room and switched the water in the bathtub 18 times within the span of two hours.
It wasn’t until the eldest young sir stopped by that Ling’ge scrambled to him and cried bitterly, “Eldest Young Sir, Eldest Young Sir, save the fifth young sir.”
Qin Xuan kicked open the door and saw his fifth brother still soaking in the bathtub. The latter’s skin had turned red and was at the point of festering. Qin Xuan yanked him out of the water in frustration.
“Useless!” The eldest young sir slapped this younger brother of his, expecting better from him. He grabbed the latter’s clean white bathrobe and shouted, “I didn’t rescue you just to see you rot in the water!”
“You’re angry? Resentful? Feel bitter! Then pull yourself together. With your brains, you’ll surely find a way to kill that b*tch!”
“El-Eldest Brother, so filthy! So d*mn filthy! Wash, wash off, wash clean!” The fifth young sir stumbled and crashed against the eldest young sir’s shoulder. He grabbed the latter’s arm and shivered nonstop.
Qin Xuan sighed and held his younger brother’s shoulders, letting him cry bitterly.
He was also extremely frustrated. His quiet and elegant fifth brother who only knew how to play the zither had never suffered such humiliation. He would definitely settle this account with that b*tch!
“You’ve gotten poisoned by multiple perfumes. Do you want Eldest Brother to help you find several virgins to detoxify…”
“No, no!!” The fifth young sir shoved his eldest brother away and backed away in terror. He covered his mouth with one hand and started retching.
Wo-women were so disgusting, so disgusting!! He didn’t want them to touch a single hair of his!
Qin Xuan nodded in resignation. “Then I’ll have Physician Chang come help you, but this kind of perfume will affect your body if not detoxified. Eldest Brother doesn’t want to see you continue suffering…”
Fifth Young Sir Qin supported himself on the edge of the bathtub and stared at the surface of the limpid water.

Qin Xuan sighed as he patted his fifth brother’s shoulder. He walked out of the room and called for Ling’ge. “Take good care of your young sir. Dismiss all the maidservants from the court.”
“Yes!”
***
The Eastern Palace.
A table carved from golden elm was set up at the main entrance.
Third Young Sir Fu was manning the fort there with two rows of imperial guards. He was holding a book and a brush.
Every time an official came to pick up their daughter, he would cross off a name!
“Young Sir! Official Yu’s steward has come to pick up their second young lady!”
A viciousness flashed past Third Young Sir Fu’s usually indolent brows. “Didn’t they see on the notice? Have her dad come and pick her up!!”
Holy sh*t! That steward from the Yu Estate felt like his head was about to explode! They were even making the lord come to pick up his daughter! The crown prince was capricious, and so was everyone in his estate! Wuwuwu… he wanted to go home to his daddy!
On the other hand, Madam Guo’an, who had been barred at the gate to the palace, was glaring so furiously that her eyes had turned green.
She pointed at the imperial guards keeping watch at the gate. “Say that again, don’t you know who I am? How dare you block this madam!!”
Mo Lian!
This madam and you cannot coexist!
