After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

She remembered what Aunt Chen had said at Zuixianlou, and how, until her death, Aunt Chen was still concerned about whether her second young lady was doing well.

It turned out that the second Miss Yu was sent away by her mother as soon as she was born. Because she was born stupid, her mother disliked her and left her at the farm without paying any attention to her.

How could there be a mother with such a cruel heart?

So what if he is stupid? Is it his will?

Old Mrs. Yu even blamed the almost difficult birth on a young child.

What old lady Yu did was simply inhumane.

And that Madam Qin is also extremely shameless.

Although Nanny Zheng said that Miss Yu only gave birth to a boy that year, she felt that there must be another hidden story behind this matter.

I'm afraid that Miss Yu Er gave birth to not only one baby boy, but also a baby girl.

And she was that baby girl.

Otherwise, there would be no explanation for the stabbing on the street yesterday.

Although there was no evidence, she was convinced that the mastermind behind the scenes was Mrs. Qin.

Madam Qin suspected that she was the daughter of Miss Yu Er, so she wanted to kill her.

Didn't Nanny Zheng say that when Madam Qin learned that her foolish sister was being bullied, she not only did not help her, but also beat her after she found out that the man her sister was with was the one she liked.

Now that I think about it, the fact that Madam Qin tolerated Second Miss Yu giving birth to a child probably meant that she had long been thinking of using the child and marrying him to Duke Qin.

So on the day Miss Yu gave birth, he took action and killed Miss Yu, and abandoned Miss Yu's little daughter in the snow, intending to freeze her to death.

Unfortunately, the baby girl was not destined to die and was saved by Qiao's father who returned home.

However, even Madam Zheng, who served Madam Yu personally, did not know about this matter, so it seems likely that Madam Yu was also unaware of it.

No matter how vicious a mother is, she would not kill her daughter and abandon her granddaughter in the snow.

Mrs. Qin must have done these things without telling Old Lady Yu.

Thinking of this, her heart was filled with anger and hatred. She didn't even feel the pain of her fingertips digging into her flesh. It was only when Lu Xingzhi pried her fingers apart that she came to her senses.

Looking at her broken palm, Lu Xingzhi said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will continue to investigate this matter and give justice to Second Miss Yu. If it is found that Second Miss Yu was really killed by Madam Qin, I will make her pay with her life!"

Qiao Jingjing forced back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "No, I want to do it myself."

"Okay." Lu Xingzhi raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and responded gently.

Qiao Jingjing was silent for a moment, and after calming down, she continued, "The people who tried to assassinate me yesterday failed. I think they are still hiding in the dark, waiting to kill me. I have thought of a way to lure them out and catch them all in one fell swoop."

Lu Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, and then he met her eyes that were as clear as water. He suddenly understood what she meant, "Well, go ahead."

Qiao Jingjing knew that he must have thought of this, but she still said, "Do you have a female subordinate who knows martial arts? You can have her pretend to be me and travel in a high-profile manner, and then have Chongxi and the others follow in secret. The people hiding in the dark will surely be unable to restrain themselves and run out to kill me. Then, I can arrest them all."

"This is a good idea. Instead of being passive, it is better to take the initiative. Although I don't have a woman who knows martial arts, I can let Lin Jiu pretend to be you." Lu Xingzhi pondered.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned, "Let Lin Jiu dress up as me?"

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Qiao Jingjing blinked, finding it hard to imagine, and hesitated, "Can we hide it from those killers?"

What she actually wanted to say was, is the killer so easy to fool?

Lin Jiu is a man, and his height and body shape are very different from those of a woman. "Yes." Lu Xingzhi affirmed.

"What do you have in mind?" Seeing that he was confident, Qiao Jingjing couldn't help but ask with interest.

Seeing that she was finally in a better mood, Lu Xingzhi felt relieved and explained in a gentle voice, "In the past, Dad had many extraordinary people under his command. In order to avoid being killed by enemies, they went up the mountain and took refuge with Dad. Dad learned a lot of skills from them, one of which was making human skin masks."

"Human skin mask?" Qiao Jingjing looked at him in surprise.

"Yes." Lu Xingzhi nodded, "As long as Lin Jiu wears a human skin mask, it will be enough to confuse the killer's eyes and ears."

Qiao Jingjing finally understood why he was so confident.

It turns out there are human skin masks.

Since there is a human skin mask, there is no need to worry.

At that time, the human skin, as thin as a silkworm's wing, would be used to cover Lin Jiu's face, making it look real.

"Can you do it?" Qiao Jingjing asked excitedly.

Lu Xingzhi shook his head, "I don't have time to learn, but Dad can do it."

Qiao Jingjing nodded, no longer surprised.

When Father Lu was young, he was the leader of a village and it was not surprising that he had many talented people under him. As Lu Xingzhi had said before, Father Lu learned a lot of skills from those people.

"But will Dad help us?"

"Of course, he has nothing to do all day, so he would be happy to make a human skin mask." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing felt relieved when she thought that Father Lu was either walking his bird or playing chess with people all day and that he really had a lot of free time.

"I'm going to find my dad." Lu Xingzhi stood up and said.

Qiao Jingjing remembered something and quickly stood up and held him back, "Since Dad can make human skin masks, why not let Dad make another one based on Madam Qin's appearance."

Lu Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, "You...want to pretend to be Miss Yu Er and scare Madam Qin?"

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "Well, I always feel that the truth revealed by Madam Zheng is only part of it, and Madam Qin must be hiding something.

Moreover, although we have speculated that I am also the child of Miss Yu Er, we have no real evidence. Those who knew the truth have long since died, so we have no way of knowing.

So I want to start with Madam Qin."

"Besides Madam Qin, there is actually another person who should also know this." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingjing's heart moved, "Are you talking about Nanny Fang beside Madam Qin?"

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Qiao Jingjing said, "Madame Fang serves Madam Qin personally, so she probably knows more about Madam Qin's affairs than anyone else. Why not, like Leng Yi, arrest her family and threaten her to reveal the truth?"

Lu Xingzhi shook his head, "This method won't work. Nanny Fang's family members are all dead, and she has no ties. Lin Jiu has already checked. She has always followed Madam Qin's lead and treated Madam Qin like her own daughter. There is no way she would betray Madam Qin.

But as long as she is human, she will have weaknesses. I will ask Lin Jiu to check her out again."

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "This is the only way. But Madam Qin's human skin mask still needs to be made. If Nanny Fang doesn't know how to do it, then you can just follow my method."

"Okay." Lu Xingzhi agreed. (End of this chapter)
