Having gone through half a day of fright and nervousness, Chu Qing-Yan tiredly fell asleep in the horse carriage.

Getting down the carriage, Xiao Xu carried her down.

Her body was so light just like a feather that Xiao Xu frowned, then he turned around to walk into the manor.

When Bai Hu and the other servants respectfully waiting in front of the gate saw their family's Highness carrying Chu Qing-Yan, one after another they lowered their heads.

They originally thought His Highness treated Chu Qing-Yan well was merely because of temporary novelty, but reality proved that their thoughts were wrong.

"Highness, you have returned...." Hong Yi led everyone to welcome him, but when she made contact with her family's Highness's meaningful glance she stopped talking. They saw that Chu Qing-Yan was sleeping very soundly at this moment in His Highness's arms, so they stopped whatever else they wanted to say. One after another, they very carefully and quietly got out of the way.

Arriving in Chu Qing-Yan's room, Xiao Xu placed her on the bed. His hand touched that thin embroidered cover then paused for a second. Soon after, he walked out of the room.

"Highness, do you want to eat right now?" Hong Yi waited outside, seeing him come out, she softly asked.

"For the time being there's no need." Xiao Xu faintly replied, then he thought of something. "You should instruct Lu Yi to change Qing-Yan's bedding for a new set. In the future, she will be in charge of arranging all of Qing-Yan's living issues."

Hong Yi stared blankly for a second, among the seven senior servants that were originally dedicated to His Highness, Huang Yi had become Chu Qing-Yan's devoted little cook. Lan Yi waited upon Chu Qing-Yan with paper, brushes and ink-stone. Zi Yi was dragged back to be retrained. Now even Lu Yi was about to be in charge of Chu Qing-Yan's living quarters. Hong Yi didn't know when she herself would have to take orders from Chu Qing-Yan. The seven Senior servants were about to once again get a new master!

However, the well trained Hong Yi very quickly agreed. All of these changes caught people somewhat unprepared. However she still followed the orders and executed it.

After he finished with his instructions, Xiao Xu walked toward the study. Fire Spirit and Earth Spirit who were hiding in the dark appeared behind him.

"Your Highness." The two spoke in unison, making their salutations.

"How is the investigation?" Xiao Xu did not stop and continued to walk forward unhurriedly.

"It was Fu An who dispatched people to tell Concubine Yue the little consort's matter. On top of which Fourth Prince often comes and goes from this manor. Concubine Yue thought that you have been misguiding Fourth Prince, therefore she thought to make her moves starting with the little consort." Fire Spirit slowly said.

"En." Xiao Xu answered.

"Your Highness, what should these subordinates do?" Fire Spirit was somewhat eager to roll up his sleeves for battle. He couldn't endure it anymore. Although he still wasn't willing to acknowledge Chu Qing-Yan's identity as the little consort, however people from the brave, fierce cavalry were all overprotective. He had already taken the initiative to incorporate Chu Qing-Yan into his own group of people. Now one of his own people was bullied, how could he swallow this gas?

Although Earth Spirit didn't speak, he clearly thought the same as Fire Spirit.

"Whatever you guys want to do, go and do it as long as it's not fatal." He always felt assured of the actions of the people under him.
