After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 302 If they weren't mother and daughter, how could they look so alike?
"Why do you think it was Madam Qin who did it?" Lu Xingzhi asked.

"I haven't offended anyone. If I have, it's only Madam Qin and her daughter. Only they have the reason to kill me, but I can't figure out why she wants to kill me?" Qiao Jingjing said. Although she felt that today's events and Aunt Chen's death were related to Madam Qin, she couldn't figure out why Madam Qin wanted to kill her.

Lu Xingzhi pondered and said, "If it was really done by Madam Qin, then it must be because your existence threatened her."

"What threat did it pose to her?" Qiao Jingjing was puzzled.

"Just as we guessed before, you and Qin Xuan should be siblings, and both were born to the Second Miss Yu. Madam Qin must have suspected your background. She was afraid that Duke Qin would find out, so she wanted to kill you first to prevent future troubles." Lu Xingzhi analyzed.

After hearing this, Qiao Jingjing felt a chill in her heart. "If that's true, Madam Qin is really vicious. But if you say so, why didn't she think of killing me before?"

"That's because Duke Qin and Qin Xuan never suspected her in the past, and they never sent anyone to investigate the affairs of the Yu family. In her opinion, you just look a bit like Qin Xuan, and she never doubted your background." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing was surprised and asked, "You mean, Duke Qin and Qin Xuan are also investigating the Yu family?"

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Qiao Jingjing understood, "If that's the case, then it makes sense. But I look a lot like Qin Xuan, and I also look a lot like Madam Qin. Why didn't she doubt my background before, but now she does?"

"I remember you said that when you were in Sifang Town, you heard what your father-in-law said to your mother-in-law. He picked you up on his way back to Beijing that year." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "Yes, that's what my father said. He said that it snowed heavily and was very cold the day he found me..." At this point, she thought of something, "So, the person who abandoned me in the snow that year was most likely Madam Qin?"

"That should be the case." Lu Xingzhi nodded. "So before today, she never thought of killing you. Even though she had some doubts, she didn't take it seriously because she felt that you, who were so young back then, could not have survived in the ice and snow."

Talking about this matter, Qiao Jingjing felt upset.

If the original owner had not been lucky enough to meet Father Qiao, he would have frozen to death in the snow.

Although that was the original owner's experience, after she traveled through time and replaced the original owner, everything about the original owner became closely related to her.

She couldn't imagine how a person could be so vicious and cruel to such a small baby.

"So she wants to kill me now because Duke Qin has already suspected her and she is afraid that the truth will be exposed, so she wants to kill me to prevent future troubles?"

"Well, actually, she probably can't be sure now. You might be Miss Yu's child. She wants to kill you, but she's just afraid of accidents."

"So, she would rather kill someone by mistake than let me go." Qiao Jingjing was angry, but also felt sorry. "Unfortunately, these are just our speculations. We have no evidence."

"Don't worry, there will be evidence soon." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing looked at him in surprise, "What?"

"Old Madam Yu has an old nanny who has been serving her personally. She must be aware of the affairs of the Yu family. Qin Xuan has already captured her family." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing was surprised, "Qin Xuan arrested the old lady's family?"

"Yes." Lu Xingzhi nodded. "According to the information Lin Jiu found, many elderly people in the Yu family died. Only the old lady is still alive. If you want to know the secrets of the Yu family, this old lady is a good breakthrough."

Qiao Jingjing blinked, "So, you and Qin Xuan teamed up to investigate this matter?"

"No, he didn't know that I was investigating this matter. It was Lin Jiu who found out that Leng Yi was investigating it, so he followed Leng Yi for a few days and discovered that he had captured the old lady's family." Lu Xingzhi explained.

"Is Leng Yi Qin Xuan's bodyguard?" Qiao Jingjing asked.

"Yes." Lu Xingzhi nodded. After a moment of silence, Qiao Jingjing teased, "You are so cunning. You actually followed others and picked up the ready-made things."

"Lin Jiu is the cunning one." Lu Xingzhi curled his lips.

In Qiao Jingjing's opinion, Lin Jiu was acting according to his orders. If he hadn't instructed him, how could Lin Jiu do these things?
But at the moment, she was in no mood, especially when she thought of Qing Yuan, she felt a little restless, "I want to go to the clinic to see Qing Yuan, I don't know if she has woken up."

"If you wake up, Jinkui will definitely send someone back to tell you that it is already late and you should not go out. If you are really worried, I will ask Donglai to go there." Lu Xingzhi advised.

Thinking about the assassination attempt today, Qiao Jingjing no longer insisted on going out.

The person behind the scenes might still be watching her secretly. If she goes out like this, wouldn't she be giving that person a chance to stab her?
"Then tell Donglai to go and take a look."

"Okay." Lu Xingzhi responded.

Thinking of something, Qiao Jingjing asked again: "By the way, have you found Aunt Chen's family?"

"The government hasn't sent back any news yet." Lu Xingzhi shook his head.

Qiao Jingjing sighed.

Fortunately, the weather is cold now, otherwise it would not be good for Aunt Chen’s body to stay in the government office.

I just hope the government can find her family quickly so she can be buried in peace sooner.

"It's getting late. You go and rest first. I'll ask Donglai to go to the clinic." Lu Xingzhi said gently.

"Yeah." Qiao Jingjing nodded, stood up and went into the inner room.

Duke Qin’s Mansion, in Madam Qin’s courtyard.

After listening to Nanny Fang's report, Madam Qin's face was filled with anger, "They are all useless. You can't even kill a mere woman."

Nanny Fang said, "It's not their fault that they failed this time. They were about to succeed, but who could have thought that stupid girl would jump forward and block the knife for Qiao?
But Madam, rest assured, those people have a thorough plan and will definitely kill Qiao. And they have also dealt with the person who failed today. "

Mrs. Qin felt anxious when she thought about the questions her mother asked her after she came back from Guanyin Temple that day.

When she met Qiao Jingjing before, she had doubted her appearance, but she never thought that she might be the baby girl from that year. After all, how could such a young child survive in the ice and snow?
But these days, she always thinks of what her mother said that day.

Yes, Qiao Jingjing looks so much like that idiot. If they are not mother and daughter, how could they look so similar?

Thinking of this, she felt a chill in her heart and said fiercely, "Qiao Jingjing must be eliminated as soon as possible!"

Seeing that she suddenly became so anxious, Nanny Fang felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

"Don't worry, Madam. I will notify them."

After Nanny Fang left, Madam Qin slumped down in the chair, her hand holding the teacup trembling constantly.

Just at this moment, the servant outside the door reported: "Madam, the Duke is here."

Mrs. Qin was startled and lost her grip on the teacup in her hand, which fell to the ground with a loud bang.
