I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 26
"Isn't there no bones left? I heard that if people don't have bones, they can't be reincarnated, and they can only be lonely ghosts forever..."

Yunyi and Yunxin talked one after another, but what they talked and laughed in Chunqiao's ears was like a bolt from the blue, causing her to fall into an uncontrollable trembling, with a splitting headache.

In such torment, Chunqiao's mood quickly reached the verge of collapse, and she kowtowed like garlic, "Miss, servant is wrong, servant can say anything, please don't send slave to the execution room, slave please don't see me." When it comes to cockroaches, don't..."

Maybe not everyone in this world is afraid of death, but no one is willing to try this disgusting feeling of being covered in cockroaches.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Steward Wang couldn't help rushing forward and yelled sharply: "Baby maid, you actually started the fire, it's really vicious!" While speaking, he took advantage of the situation and whispered in Chunqiao's ear: "Take care of you! mouth, otherwise no one will be able to keep you!"

Under Qu Lingxu's indoctrination, Chunqiao's mind is now full of cockroaches running around, and she can't care about Steward Wang's intimidation, she just keeps begging for mercy.

"Butler Wang, Miss Ben is asking questions, you should step back first."

Steward Wang naturally didn't want to give up the opportunity to continue warning Chunqiao, but Qu Lingxu said it so bluntly, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only obey.

"Chunqiao, tell me everything you know. If you miss anything, you will not only be waiting for cockroaches."

"Thank you, miss, for your kindness!" Chunqiao nodded, fearing that Qu Lingxu would change her mind if she spoke too slowly, "Miss, Steward Wang ordered this servant to set the servant on fire!"

"Baby maid, it doesn't count that you did such a heinous thing, and you still want to slander me!" The housekeeper rushed forward furiously, and slapped Chunqiao hard, so hard that the corner of Chunqiao's mouth was bleeding.

"I didn't slander you! It was you who told me that I had to burn all the books, and that as long as I did this well, Second Auntie would be rewarded a lot!" Chunqiao saw that Wang Steward not only didn't mean to protect her, but also wanted to protect her. Pushing her out to be a scapegoat, he broke his heart and said everything.

"Mom has been recuperating in bed these days, and she hasn't even left the house. How could she let you do such a nasty thing!" Qu Fengyan never dreamed that Ming Ming's seamless plan would expose them all in an instant. , trembling with anger, he blamed bitterly.

Seeing that his concubine was involved, Qu Liancheng's eyes gradually darkened, and he frowned and said, "What nonsense!"

"Master, I dare not say anything false, this is what Steward Wang told my servant!" Chun Qiao fumbled and took out a nearly crumbled note from her bosom, and handed it to Qu Liancheng tremblingly, "Master , This is a note from the steward to the servant!"

It was a coincidence that Chun Qiao had not had time to burn the note before hiding it next to her body, but she did not expect it to be an important evidence for saving her life.

Wang Steward had stayed in the General's Mansion for more than ten years, Qu Liancheng recognized the other's handwriting at a glance, kicked Wang Steward's chest fiercely, and cursed: "Beast!"

It doesn't matter if you burn the account book or the house, even if you burn Qu Lingxu to death, Qu Liancheng won't feel anything. What makes him unbearable is that a concubine of the Xu family dared to do such a crazy thing behind his back , Have you taken him as the head of the family seriously!
Seeing Qu Liancheng's blue face, Qu Fengyan knew that Steward Wang's pawn could not be kept, so he became ruthless and said with a broken heart: "Butler Wang, I think you have served in the General's Mansion for many years, and my mother has always treated you very well. How could you do such insane things in the name of your mother!"

Qu Fengyan's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on his head. How could Steward Wang not understand that the other party wanted to make him bear all the crimes in order to keep the Xu family safe!

Steward Wang was very angry. Although he had gained a lot of benefits from Xu over the years, compared to what Xu made him do on the account, it was nothing more than a drop in the bucket. Don't think about it!
Butler Wang made up his mind to fight to the death, but Qu Fengyan would not give him this chance, and said again: "Butler Wang, thanks to your mother who has always been kind to your family, even knowing that your mother is sick, you asked your grandfather to treat her personally. Wouldn't my conscience hurt if I repay my kindness like this!"

The lives of Steward Wang's family are all in Xu's hands, and his only son was sent to serve as a soldier under Xu Guifei's son Murong Jing a few months ago. As long as he doesn't want to harm the whole family, he will definitely not confess Xu .

Sure enough, when he heard Qu Fengyanming's accusation was actually a threat, Steward Wang shook his body, clutching the dirt on the ground tightly with his ten fingers, and finally gritted his teeth for a while and said, "Master, this slave was obsessed with money for a while, and greedy a lot of money." , the eldest lady has always been strict, the slave was worried that if she was found out, she would be punished severely, so she bribed Chun Qiao to take the risk, the slave deserves to die!"

Seeing Steward Wang's confession in person, Qu Fengyan was very relieved, quickly gathered his clothes and knelt in front of Qu Liancheng, weeping and said: "Father, you heard, this matter is only Steward Wang's idea, and has nothing to do with mother. relationship, mother has always been kind, you have been married to her for many years, don't you understand?"

Hearing the words 'be kind', Qu Lingxu almost couldn't help laughing out loud. It seems...the aesthetics of the white lotus are indeed special.

Although Qu Liancheng was angry with Xu, but after all the years of husband and wife, the friendship between each other will not be erased because of one incident. He was relieved that the housekeeper was able to bear the blame, and he only looked at Qu with probing eyes. Lingxu, "Xu'er, how do you think this matter should be dealt with?" If Qu Lingxu, the bitter master, would not let him go, it would be difficult for him to deal with it. After all, this daughter is now the honor of the princess. Big difference.

Qu Lingxu didn't expect her cheap father to deal with Xu, so she smiled slightly and said, "Since father can trust Second Auntie, my daughter won't embarrass father."

"Father knew you were sensible." Qu Liancheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at the housekeeper coldly, "The housekeeper, Wang Degui, was corrupt and perverted the law. He committed a crime of arson. He was immediately dragged down and beaten to death with sticks. If you sell it, you will never be allowed to enter Beijing!"

"Master, spare your life! Master, spare your life!" Steward Wang dragged Qu Liancheng by the hem of his robe, begging for mercy, and was finally dragged down forcibly by two big and three rough servants.

This night's ups and downs ended with Steward Wang's body being thrown into the mass grave. Because the fire was extinguished in time and did not affect the main hall, Qu Lingxu refused to move to Chen's place. After all, she It is inconvenient to have to open the doctor system all the time and stay with Mrs. Chen.

The next morning, while Qu Lingxu was looking at the account book, Yun Yi washed a plate of grapes and came in, and said with a light smile, "Miss, you don't know, it's busy outside."

"Oh?"

"Second aunt heard that Steward Wang had been executed, she went crazy with anger, and regardless of the injury on her buttocks, she got out of bed and smashed all the things in the Jinxiu Pavilion. Then she suddenly became quiet for some reason, and now she was laid down. Someone carried it to find the master to plead guilty." Xu's buttocks were injured and he couldn't sit in a sedan chair, so he had to be carried on a wooden plank, which was as ridiculous as it was.

Qu Lingxu picked up a grape and put it in his mouth, and said lightly: "Steward Wang is a person cultivated by Mr. Xu. As long as he is there, even if I am in charge of the house, Mrs. Xu's life will not be too sad. It's a pity that she made such a foolish move."

Originally, she wanted to stabilize the situation before taking care of the housekeeper, but there were people who wanted to die, so she had no choice but to make it happen.

"This second aunt is really vicious." Yun Yi curled her lips in disgust, somewhat unwillingly, "Since Chunqiao confessed to second aunt, why doesn't Miss let the master punish her and let her get away with it?"

"Ms. Xu is my father's favorite person, and there is no direct evidence to prove that she is related to this matter. How can it be so easy to convict." She understood this truth from the beginning, so she chose to remove the opponent's wings little by little. However, as long as he loses his rights and connections, the Xu family will be blind in this mansion, so there is nothing to worry about.

Hearing this was the case, Yun Yi nodded and sighed: "I originally thought that you are the eldest daughter of the general's mansion, and you must live a carefree life. I didn't expect you to be more miserable than the slave." .”

"This society has always been dominated by the weak and the strong. Whether you are a master or a slave, if you don't want to make yourself stronger, you can only be a fish on the chopping board and let others slaughter you." Qu Lingxu patted Yunyi's hand and said with a smile: "You also saw what happened last night. The general's mansion is full of dangers. No one knows where the next hole is. Did you ever blame me for dragging you into this muddy water?"

Hearing this, Yun Yi immediately broke free from Qu Lingxu's hand and knelt down, and said with a serious expression: "Miss, what you said is a shame for the slave, if there is no Miss to help, the slave and sister will sooner or later be ruined by the housekeeper. Innocent lives cannot be preserved, slaves and servants are not people who are greedy for life and fear death, since they have been greatly favored by the young lady, they should swear to follow the young lady to the death!"

Both Yun Yi and Yun Xin are the sons of the family. They have been slaves in the farm since their parents' generation. Not daring to blatantly offend the housekeeper, they could only dodge everywhere, living in fear every day, but thanks to Qu Lingxu's appearance, the two sisters were rescued from the nightmare, and they were naturally grateful to Qu Lingxu.

"Get up." Yun Yi's words moved Qu Lingxu a little, and after helping Yun Xin up, he said word by word: "Since you are loyal to me, I will definitely protect you."

There are still many things she needs to do in the future, and she must have a few reliable people around her. Compared with the hidden guards sent by Leng Yuanxun, of course, those who are trained by herself should be more at ease.
