Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 191 Xue Han Betrayed

Su Wen frowned, and said: "Miss... this is a problem, what if she wants to go out and talk nonsense? Why not kill her now!"

"Are you afraid that she will talk nonsense? Then feed her some charcoal, it will burn her throat, and she won't be able to say anything!" Xie Wanqing said calmly.

Xuehan looked at Xie Wanqing in horror and closed her mouth tightly.

Lingshu smiled and said: "This is a good idea, by the way, this girl can also write, why don't I cripple her hand too?"

"Well, Lingshu is thoughtful!" Xie Wanqing praised.

Xuehan trembled all over, watching Lingshu approaching her step by step.

"Don't...don't..." Xuehan was finally afraid.

Lingshu didn't pay attention to her at all, and just said: "You can't help this, who told you to kill us!"

"I was wrong...Miss, I was wrong, please forgive me, I dare not, I really dare!" Xue Han knocked her head heavily on the ground, begging Xie Wanqing's forgiveness.

Xie Wanqing hooked the corners of her mouth and asked, "Now... are you still loyal to your master?"

"The slaves and servants listen to the eldest lady, and everything is for you!" Xue Han dared not continue to confront Xie Wanqing, but the thought of swallowing that fiery coal made her dizzy with fright.

Xie Wanqing still asked worriedly: "Are you sure you want to cooperate with me instead of continuing to be loyal to your master?"

"I...I..." Xuehan glanced at Xie Wanqing, then at the charcoal picked up by Lingshu with iron tongs, and finally made a decision.

"The maidservant is sure to cooperate with the eldest lady!" Xuehan still cherishes her life, and sometimes it is much easier to die than to live.

Xie Wanqing nodded and said, "Very well, since that's the case, you can do something for me!"

"What's the matter?" Xue Han asked.

Xie Wanqing showed an unfathomable smile, and said, "Su Wen, treat her injury first!"

Su Wen nodded and walked towards Xue Han.

Xuehan still asked eagerly: "What does the young lady want the servant to do?"

"What's the hurry? When the young miss asks you to do it, she will tell you!" Su Wen said displeasedly. When dealing with the wound, she also used rough force, which caused Xue Han to suffer unspeakably.

Xue Han said: "Miss, in another two hours, if the people of the Liu family don't hear back, they must know that the plan has failed, and they won't trust the slaves at that time!"

"Well, what I want is that they don't believe you!" Xie Wanqing said with a smile.

"Ah? This servant doesn't understand what Eldest Miss means!" Xuehan was at a loss. If she wanted to do things for her by herself, how could she hope that the Liu family would not trust her.

Xie Wanqing said: "You don't need to understand, you just need to do what I tell you!"

Liu Yuejiao waited all night, but there was still no news. The next day when it was slightly bright, Haitang hurried over.

"What happened?" Liu Yuejiao asked excitedly.

Haitang shook her head, her face was very depressed, and said: "It failed, none of the people sent by my uncle came back!"

"Then... where's that girl Xuehan?" Liu Yuejiao asked.

Haitang shook her head and said: "Life or death is uncertain, I am afraid... Could it be this girl who betrayed us?"

Liu Yuejiao narrowed her eyes slightly, and said: "Xuehan grew up in my Liu family since she was a child, and my brother has always regarded her very highly, so he shouldn't betray her, right?"

"Then why did such a careful plan fail? My uncle said that there was no movement in the yard last night. He must have been caught as soon as he entered, and he didn't even have a chance to attack!" Haitang said. .

When Liu Yuejiao was told this, she became a little puzzled, and said, "It's true, even if someone saves her, there won't be any signs of fighting, unless Xie Wanqing knew about our plan in advance!"

"Also, that girl Xuehan asked her to drug Xie Wanqing, but Xie Wanqing was safe all the time, and she even said that she had been poisoned!" Haitang has been dissatisfied with Xuehan for a long time, so she took this opportunity to Add insult to injury.

Although Liu Yuejiao was very unwilling to believe that Xuehan had betrayed her, she couldn't believe these things, and said, "When did this damned girl betray you?"

"My servant guesses that she might not be of the same mind as us long ago. She was treated very well at Xie Wanqing's place, and her food and clothing are even better than Lingshu and Suwen. Xie Wanqing has always been polite to her. Don't let her do anything either!" Haitang said.

Liu Yuejiao twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and said unhappily: "This damn girl, I definitely want her to look good!"

"She might never come back again. I'm afraid Madam won't have a chance to do anything. She is an orphan, and she has no way to hold her in our hands!" Haitang said.

Liu Yuejiao thought for a while, and said: "But her contract of selling herself is still in the hands of her brother!"

"But ma'am, do you want to show it? It's not a good thing to let others know that you put eyeliner around Xie Wanqing!" Haitang hesitated.

Liu Yuejiao also secretly hated, although Xie Wanqing has lost power, but Xie Zi'an is still there, and the Cui family is still there, if people find out that she designed Xie Wanqing, she will definitely be in trouble!
"Forgive her for the time being, and when the right opportunity comes, I will definitely let her know the fate of betraying our Liu family!" Liu Yuejiao showed extremely fierce eyes.

The corner of Haitang's mouth curled up into a smile, Xuehan had been relying on the trust of her uncle and wife to hold her head firmly, but now it was completely over!

But at noon, the Liu family sent a letter.

After hearing this, Liu Yuejiao showed a puzzled expression, and asked, "You said that Xuehan's legs were crippled and she was thrown at the door of Liu's house?"

"That's right, there was a letter written in red paint in front of the Liu family's gate, saying to return the slaves, and now the news has spread, and everyone is saying that you arranged for Xie Wanqing to frame her everywhere. Put your own daughter on the throne! He also said that Xie Wanqing's current fate is all thanks to you!"

Haitang looked unhappy, now that Liu Yuejiao is in dire straits, so is the Liu family.

Liu Yuejiao slapped the table and said angrily, "Why is it our fault? She chose to divorce herself!"

"That's not what people say. It's been rumored that you forced me to do it, and that you provoked Xie Wanqing's relationship with her father and daughter. As a result, Xie Wanqing was kicked out of the house. Everyone began to sympathize with her, and they all said you... Said that you are a poisonous snake and scorpion woman!"

After hearing Haitang's words, Liu Yuejiao's face was distorted, and she gritted her teeth with hatred.

Just as she was annoyed, Mrs. Xie sent someone to find her.

"Aunt Liu, Madam, please go over, the Cui family is here!"

When Liu Yuejiao heard this, she knew that something was wrong and that Xie Wanqing's plot was about to succeed, so she tidied up and went to Songshou Hall.

Mrs. Xie was sitting together, Mrs. Cui's expression was displeased, while Mrs. Xie was very embarrassed, with a smiling face, but she still couldn't please her.

"Mother-in-law, this incident... can't be blamed on Chongguang, after all, offending the crown prince, our Xie family is also difficult to handle, what do you think?" Mrs. Xie asked.

Mrs. Cui snorted coldly, and said: "Does the Xie family think that my Cui family is dead? Do you still have the heart to bully Wan'er like this? Wan'er is Xie Chongguang's biological daughter and my daughter The jewel in your palm born with all your life, you say you will be expelled from the house, so you will be expelled from the house, have you ever taken my old woman seriously?"

Sitting below, Xie Chongguang was also very frightened. He had seen Mrs. Cui's methods before.

Mrs. Xie said: "But Mrs. Cui also has to think about my Xie family. We are not as deep-rooted as the Cui family. We have a weak foundation in Beijing, and it is easy to gain a foothold. Chongguang can't just leave Wan'er alone. Let the whole family go in!"

"I took Wan'er with me for the divorce. If you want to blame me, you can blame me. The emperor himself promised to divorce, and he didn't intend to hold your Xie family accountable. Why are you so trembling?" Mrs. Cui said angrily.

Mrs. Xie sighed and said: "Although I am not as well-informed as my mother-in-law, this matter can still be seen clearly. The emperor may not do anything right now, but there is no guarantee that he will not blame the Xie family in the future, let alone ...If the crown prince ascends the throne one day, how will the Xie family deal with it? The Cui family is not afraid, but the Xie family is!"

"So you just kicked Wan'er out? So disregarding the family relationship?" Mrs. Cui slapped the table heartbrokenly, wishing to beat the shameless mother and son severely to dispel the hatred in her heart!

Xie Chongguang sighed, and said: "My lord mother-in-law, things are not what you think, we are not really disregarding the later, but we just want to calm down the anger of the emperor and the prince, and wait for the turmoil to pass, and then we will do our best for you." Wan'er finds a way out, she is my daughter after all, how could I be so cruel!"

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she felt relieved for her son's wit, and echoed: "Yes, I have discussed it with Chongguang. After a year or so, when everyone forgets about it, the late son will die." Marrying outside the capital will keep her safe for the rest of her life!"

"Hehe...is this your plan?" Mrs. Cui really thought the mother and son were ridiculous.

Mrs. Xie asked back: "Then the mother-in-law has a better way? She and the prince have divorced. In the capital, who else is willing to marry her? No one would dare to accept her as a stepmother!"

Mrs. Cui was blocked. She was always worried about Xie Wanqing's marriage, and she divorced the prince. Even if Xie Wanqing was right, she would not dare to marry another family. Who would want to be an enemy of the royal family?

"Even if Wan'er never gets married, my Cui family is willing to support her forever!" Mrs. Cui said helplessly, "Because she is our child, our own flesh and blood, even if everyone despises her, how can I despise her? What's more Well, there is nothing wrong with Wan'er, she is just more pitiful than other children, and needs more love from others!"

Mrs. Xie's face was slightly embarrassed when she was told, she abandoned Xie Wanqing at a difficult moment, in fact, they heard what outsiders said, and she was not aware of how many people laughed behind Xie's family for being heartless and ungrateful.

But for the sake of long-term interests, she would rather the Xie family bear the infamy for a while, than in the future when Xie Chongguang loses his official position, the Xie family is kicked out of the capital, and continues to live the miserable life in the past!
"Mother-in-law, don't stand up and talk without pain in your back. Your Cui family has made great achievements and holds a lot of power. Even the emperor is courteous to the Cui family. But our Xie family has a shallow foundation and cannot stand the toss. If the Xie family would How can we bear to abandon Wan'er like the Cui family's bells and whistles!"

Mrs. Xie wiped the corners of her eyes pretentiously, as if she had made a helpless choice.
