After being kicked out of the prince's mansion, he suffered from morning sickness, and the rege

The overwhelming smell of blood overwhelmed Qianxue, who was so frightened that she couldn't even scream.

She stared blankly at Yanran, who was covered in blood, folded in the center of the room in an extremely strange posture.

died! Yanran is dead! And the death was extremely scary!

Qianxue shook her head uncontrollably, turned around and wanted to run out, but Aunt Zhao blocked the door and refused to let her go.

Qian Xue felt as if all her courage had been drained out of her. Her legs went limp and she fell to the ground leaning against the door frame.

Aunt Zhao then pretended to come over and caress her back, "What are you doing?"

Qianxue shrank and subconsciously avoided Aunt Zhao's touch, as if her palms were covered with poison.

"It's a pity that I didn't even have the chance to see you one last time."

Qianxue and Liuli just trembled and let Aunt Zhao talk to herself.

"However, she deserves it. As a slave, the eldest lady is ungrateful for supporting her. On the contrary, she has lost her duty as a slave and wants to surpass the eldest lady's position by relying on the eldest uncle's favor."

Aunt Zhao sneered, "My eldest son-in-law is the eldest son, and his wife and concubine are different. How can he mess up the rules? No matter how much he loves Yanran, the concubine is just a thing that can be thrown away."

Aunt Zhao put her hands on the shoulders of Qian Xue and Liu Li, and then slowly said her last words.

"Betraying the madam, betraying the eldest lady, this is the fate she deserves."

At this moment, Qianxue felt that her life was in the palm of her hand, and the threat was overwhelming.

Tears fell uncontrollably, but Qianxue didn't even dare to blink.

Seeing that killing the chicken to scare the monkeys had a good effect, Aunt Zhao patted Qian Xue on the shoulder comfortingly, then turned and left.

Qianxue leaned against the door panel completely exhausted and sobbed softly. She was not only scared, but also sad.

Some of them were shed for Yanran, and more were shed for herself.

Although Liuli was also frightened by this scene, fortunately she was a few years older than Qianxue and had more experience, so she had calmed down now.

She sat next to Qian Xue, brushed away the tears on her cheeks, and comforted her softly.

"Silly Axue, don't take all of this seriously. It has nothing to do with you at all. Yanran's death was caused by Madam Yanran. Even if her life is taken, it is not our responsibility. Don't think too much about it."

Liuli patted Qianxue on the back and coaxed her carefully for a while. Seeing that Qianxue's mood gradually stabilized, she led her away quickly.

"This place is weird, so it's best to leave as soon as possible."

Qian Xue was a little sluggish and let Liuli lead her away.

After the two of them successfully walked out of Zhao's courtyard, they finally relaxed their tense nerves.

"The more I think about it, the more I feel that the room just now looked familiar. It was small, dark, and so narrow that it made people breathless."

Qian Xue's eyes were still red, and she looked at Liuli blankly.

"Into the painting...do you still remember?" Liuli leaned into Qian Xue's ear and whispered.

"The one who was caught climbing on the bed and sold out by his wife because she missed the Prime Minister?" Qian Xue replied in a low voice with a hoarse voice.

"Yes, it's her!" Liuli nodded, then her expression became a little darker, "She wasn't betrayed by Madam, she was secretly dealt with."

Qianxue took a breath and looked at Liuli with a shocked face.

"It's true! Sister Ruhua has no relatives. When I knew that she was going to be sold by Madam, I took some money and wanted to give it to her privately, but I didn't expect that she was taken away." Liuli swallowed her saliva. , "I was a little worried, so I followed him quietly. What I saw then was this small room."

"When I walked into the room, Ru Hua... was already out of breath." Liuli choked up as she spoke.

"I haven't seen any corpses in the painting since then. They were probably rolled up in straw mats and thrown into mass graves."

Qian Xue's heart grew colder and colder as Liuli told her story.

She actually noticed that there were deep and shallow blood stains in that room, on the floor, on the windows, and even on the roof...

However, she was too scared to think about what these were.

Now that Liuli had broken it, she had to think about how many people had died in that small room to leave so much blood.

Seeing that she was in a daze with fright, Liuli quickly changed the topic.

"Don't be afraid. We are no longer members of Madam's courtyard. You still have the young master to support you. Madam doesn't dare to deal with you at will."

Qianxue nodded blankly, and Liuli came closer and said something.

"Do you know the most fundamental reason why they were quietly executed?"

Qianxue remembered the warning given by Aunt Zhao before she left, "It violated the taboos of the masters."

Liuli immediately shook her head, "No! It's because there are no heirs!"

Qianxue, who had been expecting an answer just now, immediately turned her head. She really didn't want to listen to Liuli's verbosity at all.

"You girl, how much older am I than you? I have been on this road longer than you. I still know the key points. Even if they did something wrong, they only have the blood and bones of the master in their belly. Can you die so easily?"

Qianxue only felt tired, but she still didn't want Liuli to be trapped in this strange cycle of having children.

"No matter how good the heir is, it all depends on whose belly it comes from. The one born by the mistress will naturally be noble and noble. What does it mean if the child is born by us maids?"

Liuli certainly has her own theory.

"The mother clan is naturally important, but the most important thing is to continue the bloodline of the husbands. As long as the child is of the bloodline of the husband, he is the little master. Even if his mother is a maid, it still does not prevent him from being a master or a slave. future."

Liuli looked at Qianxue seriously, "Axue, look at the reality, the heirs are the most important! The husbands are more noble, their bloodline is the most important, the mistress, the maid, they are all just bloodline It’s just a continuation of the belly.”

These words were extremely unpleasant to hear, and they directly tore away Qian Xue's carefully hidden dignity and escapism from reality.

Bone-piercing, gouging out the heart, dripping with blood.

Qianxue looked at Liuli who was still persuading her softly, and felt powerless.

Liuli is so persistent because she has indeed succeeded in part, going from being a maid to being a half-master.

From working from dawn to dusk to serve others, all he had to do was serve Jing Ke's bed, and he could get money and rewards that he had not seen in the past few years.

Therefore, she firmly believes that doing so will lead to a better life in the future.

Qianxue could not change her perception, just as Liuli could not persuade Qianxue to listen to her theory.

"Sister Li, I'm really flustered. Can we not talk about this for now?" Qianxue turned her head to escape, not wanting to answer Liuli's words.

Liuli also stimulated her, comforted her and changed the topic.

Liuli supported her tightly all the way until she was safely delivered to the gate of Jingyuyuan, and then she left.
