Divine Doctor Poison Concubine: Miss Waste

Chapter 295 Doubt (1)
"Okay! That's great!" After listening to Xia Ziheng's words, the old lady couldn't help but have a look of joy on her face. She was not necessarily happy that her son would be able to stay in the capital from now on. She might be happy that Xia Ziheng was behind him. In that sentence, adding officials to ranks and honoring the lintel.

For Mrs. Xia, Xia Qingge has almost no emotion. For her father who has never met, although blood is thicker than water, she has never had any memory of this man in any of her memories. Therefore, today's news She didn't show any excitement either.

"Is sister unhappy?" Xia Yumeng, who had been sitting dignifiedly at the side, asked worriedly after seeing Xia Qingge's calm face.

Xia Qingge's delicate eyebrows raised slightly, and Xia Yumeng's seemingly caring words caused everyone here to cast curious and inquiring gazes.

Mrs. Xia chuckled lightly: "That's right, girl Qingge, your father is going back to Beijing this year, why haven't you seen any joy on your face?"

"If you go back to your grandmother, why would Qing Ge be unhappy? But in Qing Ge's memory, his father has always been a vague shadow. When he heard the news suddenly, Qing Ge was just a little dazed. Surprised and in the future, Qing Ge will also be unhappy. It's a man with a father!"

She said in a low voice, with a faint sob, the old lady, Xia Ziheng, and Xia Yu dreamed that all had different expressions.

"Miss, you miss Master so much on weekdays. After hearing the news that Master is going back to Beijing, you must be both happy and nervous!" Qiaolan also hurriedly said to help Xia Qingge.

The master and the servant overshadowed Xia Yumeng's words: "Wuxin" just now, the old lady's face flickered, and then she pretended to be very distressed and patted Xia Qingge's hand: "Good boy, grandmother Know that you miss your father more than any of us."

Xia Qingge's shoulders trembled, everyone looked as if she couldn't help crying, but Shunzi buried deep in her thick eyelashes contained a deep coldness.

"Grandmother, we are taking care of Huanxi's father, and now Liu Wancai is still kneeling here."

The old lady followed Xia Qingge's gaze, but she saw Liu Wancai kneeling on the ground with dazed eyes and bewildered eyes. Compared with the previous appearance, it seemed that someone had suddenly taken her soul out of her.

Xia Qingge paused in his heart, and looked at Liu Wancai carefully, the chill in his heart deepened, and he looked at the figure closest to Liu Wancai as if nothing had happened, and his heart was basically clear!
"Yeah! Ziheng just happened to be here today, so you can help your mother and ask this damn dog slave, where did the millions of taels of silver he embezzled go?"

After Mrs. Xia finished speaking, she turned her face to the side and stared deeply at the change in Xia Ziheng's complexion, but Xia Ziheng's eyes were clear, and there was no suspicion at all.

"Millions of taels of silver?" Xia Ziheng looked at Mrs. Xia in astonishment: "What does mother mean by this? Could it be that Liu Wancai, the deputy steward of a small village, dares to steal such a huge amount of silver?"

Mrs. Xia glanced at Liu Wancai who was kneeling on the ground and said with a sneer, "Don't say you don't believe it, even an old woman like me who has lived for most of her life can't believe that there is such a bold servant, but now the evidence for this matter is conclusive. The backup accounts on the Jiao Zhuangzi are obviously different from the accounts that Liu Wancai sends to the Xiuguo Mansion every year. Moreover, girl Qingge has already tracked down this matter very clearly on the Zhuangzi. Confess, Ziheng, tell me, is there someone behind this greedy slave? That's why he acted so boldly?"

"It's indeed too bold. A small deputy manager has embezzled millions of taels of silver. But is there anyone behind the scenes to investigate and deal with him? If I know about this, I will definitely not forgive this kind of person lightly." !"

The smile on Mrs. Xia's face deepened: "Not yet, but now that Liu Wancai is right in front of me, under severe torture, I don't believe that he won't confess! Come, someone will beat Liu Wancai on the spot and knock him down. Until the confession."

Under Mrs. Xia's repeated tests, there was no panic on Xia Ziheng's face. Several wives outside the door came in, all holding sticks in their hands, and walked to Liu Wancai. The two wives pressed Liu Wancai When they reached the ground, the other two wives raised their wooden sticks and beat Liu Wancai's body fiercely.

"Clap--"

The room was silent for a moment, except for the sound of wooden sticks beating skin and flesh. Xia Qingge, Mrs. Xia, Xia Ziheng and Xia Yumeng all sat quietly in their seats, watching the bloody scene of Liu Wancai being executed with the stick.

After the thirty boards fell, the old lady frowned more and more: "Stop!" She suddenly yelled, making the two wives who were exerting all their strength to carry out the stick duty abruptly stop.

"Girl Qingge, take a quick look, why does Liu Wancai look so stupid? He's already beaten [-] boards, why doesn't he say anything?"

"Did you die?" Although Xia Qingge already understood what was going on in her heart, she did not intend to tell Mrs. Xia. Even if Liu Wancai did not point out the main messenger behind today's incident, Mrs. Xia still had only suspicions about Xia Ziheng. It will make it worse and not reduce it, and her goal will be half achieved!
"Quick, go and see if Liu Wancai is dead." Mrs. Xia hurriedly ordered the two nurses to go forward and check carefully.

One of the women squatted down, looked at Liu Wancai who had been clinging to the ground, put her hand tremblingly between his nostrils, and her expression changed instantly: "Old lady—old lady, this Liu Wancai has—already Out of breath!"

"What?" Mrs. Xia stood up from the slump in shock, her face was full of puzzlement: "How could this happen? It's only thirty boards, why did you die like this?"

A dark light flashed across the faces of Xia Ziheng and Xia Yumeng, and it was fleeting.

"What should we do now? Liu Wancai was beaten to death like this, but he has never revealed the real behind-the-scenes instructions. Mother, what do you think?"

Xia Ziheng also looked extremely anxious, and sighed deeply, as if he felt a little sorry for Liu Wancai's death!

The old lady sat back on the soft bed heavily, and looked down at Liu Wancai deeply. At this moment, blood was pouring out of the seven orifices on his face. She had doubts in her heart instantly, and she glanced at Xia Ziheng, completely puzzled There seemed to be some light on his face.

Xia Qingge glanced at Xia Ziheng, and the other party also met her at the same time, the coldness and complacency in those eyes were revealed when the four eyes met, Xia Qingge's mouth curled into a faint smile, and he turned his face towards Looking at Mrs. Xia: "Grandmother, although Liu Wancai died just like that, there is still one person in our house. She should be inextricably related to this matter."
