Liu Qing frowned when she heard what her servant had said, but she remained calm.

She had suffered numerous slanders over the years. This wouldn't be the first time that someone had tried to sully her name.

When they weren't accusing her of enjoying undeserved privilege because of her status as Third Miss, they were accusing her of something else.

No one cared about how hard she worked. They were convinced that she had gotten to where she was now because of whom she was related to. She couldn't compare with her two elder brothers. "They're saying..." Her servant's eyes reddened. "They're saying that Third Miss... has been duped by a scoundrel!"

Liu Qing's eyes widened.

Duped by a scoundrel?

This was the first time she had been slandered in such a manner. What scoundrel were they talking about? Where would she find such a man?

She froze momentarily, then whipped around and stared at Jiang Ning, who was just sitting there.

"That's utter nonsense!"

Who was going around spreading this rumor? Wasn't he worried that he might be caught and dismembered?

Liu Qing flushed. "Who started it?"

"I don't know. It's spreading across the entire Inner Court. Mr Zhang is looking into the matter," said the servant. "I don't know which horrible person is doing this, but Third Miss, you have to get the sect leader to look into this. The assholes who started this should be killed!"

In Qingshan Sect, Liu Qing appeared to be both an important and unimportant figure at the same time.
