Jinghaihou heard a very light footsteps coming in.

He frowned impatiently, and suppressed his displeasure in a deep voice, "Didn't I just say that no one should bother you?"

Seeing him so angry.

The room maid who just came in regretted it almost immediately.

She is just a little maid, and Hou Ye will not care so much when he loses his temper.

But so far.

She is already on the verge of riding a tiger, if she can't accomplish what Yao Ye told her, she will still have to finish the game.

So the little maid had no choice but to suppress the fear in her heart.

"Waiting... Lord Hou."

The servant girl in the room bowed her body, "This servant girl is here to bring you sober soup."

There was a slight sound.

She put the bowl of hangover soup on the table.

Just when Jing Haihou raised his eyes when he stood up, he saw that the housemaid was wearing especially thin clothes.

The thin layer of gauze skirt can hardly cover anything, and the large snow-white is extremely eye-catching.

Jinghaihou has been abstinent since his beloved concubine gave birth half a month ago.

Suddenly seeing this spring leaking out right now, I immediately felt a surge of anger.

He pulled the maid into his arms.

Yao Ye waited outside the lobby for quite a while.

Seeing that the servant girl didn't come out for a long time, she couldn't help feeling suspicious.

"Will the maid be discovered by my father?"

Just as she was thinking wildly, she saw the servant girl hurried out wrapped in a coat.

That fair little face was surprisingly rosy.

Yao Ye hurried forward, "Did you get the things?"

The servant girl in the room suppressed her pounding heart and handed her the seal she kept in her bosom.

His hand was trembling when he reached out.

"Miss... this is what you want."

Yao Ye took it with a happy face.

After checking it, it was confirmed that it was the seal, but when he wanted to leave, the maid grabbed her sleeve tightly.

"Miss, what you want the slave to do, the slave has already done."

She looked at Yao Ye almost beggingly, with a pitiful tone, "Can you...don't tell Madam about this?"

Mrs. Hou has always been jealous.

Although people outside don't know it, the servants in the Hou's mansion know it all.

That concubine whom Lord Hou favored had a miscarriage was really too strange.

"Let go of your dirty hands." Yao Ye shook off the servant girl with contempt.

"A lowly maidservant in the district also wants to teach me how to do things? See your own position clearly."

The servant girl in Tongfang fell to the ground in panic.

She ran over without giving up, and continued to tug on Yao Ye's skirt.

"Miss, thank you for your kindness. This servant only went to approach Lord Hou after listening to your words."

"If it wasn't for you... to give the servant ten courages, the servant would not dare to do this."

Yao Ye was very angry when she heard her say that.

But she suddenly thought of something.

His eyes fixed on the maid, and he approached step by step.

"Miss?" The servant girl backed away in fear.

Yao Ye directly grabbed her by the collar, and said with stern eyes: "Listen well, if you dare to reveal a word about today's matter."

"I'll have someone sell you to a brothel."

There was a fierce coldness in Yao Ye's eyes, she was really capable of such a thing.

The servant girl in the room turned pale with fright.

When Yao Ye informed Tian of this matter, he was not approved by the latter.

"Miss, when you cut the weeds, you have to get rid of the roots."

"But...if my father finds out, the maid he just spoiled will die."

Yao Ye hesitated, "Then he will definitely suspect me."

Tian's eyes flashed.

This is indeed a bit risky, but for her, there must be no uncertainty in the plan.

So Tian took a step forward, and said softly to Yao Ye: "Miss, leave this matter to this old slave."

"I'm sure no one will find out how she died."

The corners of Tian's eyes were covered with fine lines, revealing a trace of cruel indifference.

Yao Ye nodded without much hesitation, "Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

"Don't let anyone find out."

Within a few days, someone discovered that a servant girl had jumped into the well.

When it was salvaged, the corpse was already swollen with water.

This incident caused a great commotion in the Hou Mansion.

Jinghai Hou YouQi was furious, but after checking, he only found out that it was the maid who couldn't think about it.

This matter was quickly forgotten by everyone.

……

"Mother, I'm here to see you." Yao Ye came to Mrs. Hou's yard.

Mrs. Hou's Mrs. Chen is depressed because Jinghaihou has been unclear with many women in the mansion.

So the complexion has been sickly for days.

It wasn't until she saw her daughter coming to see her that she forced a smile on her face.

"Yi'er, why did you come to Wei Niang's place instead of chatting with other noble ladies?"

Madam Hou coughed lightly as she spoke, "Mother's health has not been very good recently, I'm afraid I'll overwhelm you."

Chen is actually only 30 years old.

It was only because of her sick appearance that she was a little haggard, so she didn't look very well.

"Mother, what did you say?"

Yao Ye hurriedly supported her, and shouted to his maid: "Hurry up and bring the medicine."

The maid quickly brought up the prepared medicine.

But Mrs. Chen was so sick that she struggled to hold a bowl.

So Yao Ye could only feed her the medicine himself, "Come on, mother, I will feed you the medicine."

"You were just angry for a while. The doctor prescribed medicine and said that as long as you keep drinking a few doses, you will be fine. Drink it quickly."

Chen took a few mouthfuls of the bitter concoction, her brows furrowed.

She wiped her mouth with a silk handkerchief, thinking of all the rumors in the mansion in the past few days, she felt annoyed for a while.

"That's not because your father came here indiscriminately. It's worth his effort to find out the cause of death just for that lowly servant girl."

"I think he still can't let go of the child conceived by that bitch in Huaishui Juli. I suspect that I did it."

Yao Ye lowered his head a little guilty when he heard the words.

She asked Tian to dispose of the Tongfang, and the child in the womb of the concubine in Huaishui Juli who had just entered the mansion was also her hands.

It's just that Chen didn't know that she did these things.

Jinghaihou even never suspected her from the beginning to the end, he just thought it was Chen's hands.

It's just that the evidence has not been found, so the couple have had a lot of quarrels and disputes in recent days.

The more Yao Ye thought about it, the more guilty he felt, he hesitated and said: "Mom, maybe Dad doesn't mean that."

"He just wanted to find out who did it, and he didn't suspect you."

Just as Chen was about to say something, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

This is a woman's innate feeling.

But looking at her daughter's face, she still didn't want to think about it.

Perhaps Yao Ye just wanted to talk to her, a mother, just because of some troubles.

So she asked: "Yi'er, what happened when you came to find your mother? Could it be that things are not going well between you and King Qin?"

"No, mother, I'm just... in two days, I will go shopping with my sisters."

Yao Ye racked his brains to come up with an excuse: "I almost have money, not enough, so I want to come to my mother for help."
