Upon hearing this, the First Madam, who had been furious, revealed a mocking smile, slightly disdainful.

"That's how the child of this good-for-nothing is—useless and utterly useless."

He really thought that by climbing the social ladder through Li Qingshan, he could control the entire Marquis's mansion? It was all wishful thinking. Quickly contact the other noble families I'm considering marrying into; I want my daughter to have a grand and prestigious wedding.

Upon hearing this, the two old women trembled slightly and quickly agreed.

They knew in their hearts that the current First Madam was preparing to completely eliminate the Eldest Miss.

The Marquis's mansion is in turmoil. Even if things stabilize for a while, how many of these noble families would be willing to treat it kindly?

Moreover, the young lady has a reputation for practicing demonic arts, so how many people would dare to propose marriage to her? In the end, she would only marry a few unorthodox disciples.

……

Compared to the scheming First Madam and Eldest Daughter.

At this moment, Li Qingshan was staring wide-eyed at his young mistress, his face full of shock.

"You mean, you want me to take your seventh sister as my concubine?!"

Even Li Qingshan couldn't help but feel a little emotional at this moment.

The atmosphere in the Changning Marquis's mansion was truly baffling, yet he found himself enjoying it immensely and unable to extricate himself from it.

The Eighth Madam gave Li Qingshan a reproachful look, then quickly covered herself with the quilt, revealing a large expanse of her snow-white skin.

"What do you mean by 'accepted'? That sounds awful. It should be 'befriended'."

After saying that, the Eighth Madam lay flat on the bed, and even so, she could not hide the curves of her body.

"My dear nemesis, you have no idea what a blissful life Seventh Sister and I live."

There's never even a drop of soup or water in the house. If you hadn't come, I'd probably still be living a widow's life. Now that Seventh Sister is suffering, how can I let her stay alone in her empty room?

As the Eighth Madam spoke, she was about to get up, preparing to properly introduce this older sister to Li Qingshan.

As the quilt slipped down, revealing her graceful figure, the Eighth Madam leaned against Li Qingshan's back with captivating charm, pushing him gently as she spoke.

"If you, my nemesis, are willing to lend a hand, all the good stuff my seventh sister has will probably end up in your hands."

And such good things?

When Li Qingshan heard that he could both eat and take, he immediately became interested.

"I wonder what good stuff you have?"

Li Qingshan asked with a smile, but his hands began to get restless.

The Eighth Madam was panting heavily, her eyes filled with seductive allure, but Ke Yi continued speaking.

"A map, a treasure map that leads to the ancient battlefield. Legend has it that if you obtain this item, you can enter the ancient battlefield as if walking on flat ground. Only aristocratic families can possess it."

The Marquis originally intended to obtain this map to enter the ancient battlefield, but unfortunately, things didn't go smoothly, and with the vicissitudes of time, he ultimately failed to acquire it.

Ancient battlefield?

Li Qingshan didn't pay attention to the last sentence; instead, he became interested.

After all, the fragments of the Nine Yang Sword came from an ancient battlefield, and perhaps he could obtain even more treasures after entering it.

"Has that treasure map been tested?"

Although Li Qingshan had already made up his mind to have a proper meeting with this Seventh Madam, he still needed to ask her questions beforehand.

"Of course we've tried it. You could say this map was created with human lives on it. Whether it's a dangerous place or a treasure trove, it was created by people trying it out time and time again."

Unfortunately, legend has it that a major incident occurred within that ancient battlefield, so very few people ventured into it to explore afterward.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingshan understood.

After all, those who can enter that ancient battlefield are undoubtedly among the strongest.

Even a grandmaster is probably just a roadside figure.

However, their status outside is extremely valuable, and if a large number of them die, it could very well shake the very foundation of the Great Qian Dynasty.

I never expected that someone would be able to spell out such a treasure map.

Just do it.

Li Qingshan was always decisive. After washing up and dressing up, he estimated that it was about time and quickly headed towards the Seventh Madam's residence.

As for the Eighth Madam?!

She had already secretly returned to her original residence and started matchmaking for Li Qingshan.

……

Li Qingshan walked through the depths of the corridor and circled around two or three times before finally seeing the courtyard where the seventh lady lived.

To be honest, this courtyard isn't very big. It's about two or even three times the size of the courtyards of the young lady or the madam.

Moreover, it was not extravagant. It lacked the lush and bustling atmosphere of the First Madam's Garden, and it also lacked the characteristics of other courtyards. Instead, it had a delicate and refined feel.

There were two or three clusters of February orchids and jasmine flowers planted under the courtyard wall, the bluestone slabs in front of the door were swept clean, and maids were serving around.

However, Li Qingshan's arrival seemed to be a coincidence. The maids were not there, and there were guards coming and going in the distance, but after seeing Li Qingshan, everyone pretended not to see him.

After all, this man was about to become the nominal son-in-law of the eldest daughter of a marquis's family.

They dared not offend him, especially since their superior, Li Hao, was from the same hometown as this Lord Li.

In the courtyard, the Eighth Madam and the Seventh Madam were having a private conversation.

At this moment, the Eighth Madam was all smiles, while the Seventh Madam looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Seventh Sister, what do you say? Would you like to give it a try?"

The Eighth Madam asked with a smile.

Her face was full of satisfaction, like the deep hue left after a passionate encounter.

This scene truly shocked the Seventh Madam, who had long since lost experience with human relationships.

But in the end, she couldn't overcome the obstacle in her own heart.

"This... Eighth Sister, I am ultimately a member of the Marquis's household..."

Before the Seventh Madam could finish speaking, the Eighth Madam cut her off. She clapped her hands while trying to control the Seventh Madam's excitement.

"Ha! Seventh Sister, think about it. Putting aside the fact that the Marquis disappeared, how many times did we make love before the Marquis disappeared?"

Besides, we're not servants, what is there to worry about? Even if the Marquis returns, who knows when he'll be back, and how would he possibly know?

At this point, Madam Qi's heart visibly raced. She picked up her fragrant tea and took a sip, but felt her face growing increasingly hot.

Seeing that her medicine had worked, the Eighth Madam was overjoyed and hurriedly said:

"The person will arrive in a while. If Seventh Sister is still unwilling, then just let the person leave."

Let's pretend nothing happened, okay?

The Seventh Madam finally nodded and said nothing more.

But the Eighth Madam was all smiles and quickly left, as if she had accomplished something of great importance.

for a long time.

A gentle breeze swept by, causing the February Red flowers in the courtyard to sway slightly, creating a beautiful sight.

The Seventh Madam, who should have been enjoying flowers and tea, felt increasingly hot as she drank more tea.

She couldn't help but ask herself if it was because she had been alone in her room for too long that she had lost her composure after hearing her eighth sister's words.

Or is it that you actually long for someone to enter your life?

No one responded to Madam Seven for the time being.

Just then, someone appeared.
