Chapter 70 The Femme fatale

Chapter 70 The Femme fatale
The banquet was over, and it was almost Youshi.After two more sticks of incense, the sky will be dark, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, the moonlight splashes on the cold wall, and the night is deserted.

In the Longshui Pavilion of the Nie Mansion, Mrs. Liu was leaning on the couch rubbing her brows, while Cuizhu was beating her legs one by one, exerting strength on her hands, but her breathing was extremely soft.Cuizhu knew that Liu Shi hadn't been so irritable and irritable for a long time, if she was a little careless, she was afraid that the head on the neck would move.

Mrs. Liu did not look at the mother-in-law who was kneeling on the ground. She just closed her eyes and asked in a low voice: "Have you dealt with those two maids?"

"Returning to Madam, the low-class servant girl who chewed her tongue has already taken poison, and the old servant ordered someone to take a straw and throw it out. No one noticed. As for Lan Zhi, who is next to the second lady, the old slave has just poisoned her , I will ask people to be sold to the low-class brothels on West Street later." Grandma Liu held her breath, for fear of saying the wrong word.

Mrs. Liu pinched the center of her brows, opened her beautiful eyes slightly, and her eyes slid across Nanny Liu's back: "Send a few more clever people to watch Mrs. Zhang, and don't let anything happen to her in the mansion. I heard that the hundred Qin Xiaolian, the opera singer in Xiaoban, is Zhang's distant cousin, she found a concubine outside, if that concubine had something to do with Zhang, it is possible that Qin Xiaolian bought the murder of Zhang in a fit of anger."

In Mrs. Liu's eyes, the maid who conveyed the message was of no importance, it was just a matter of taking her life.But Lan Zhi, as Nie Ying's personal maid, was unfavorable in protecting her master and committed a heinous crime. Life was worse than death, which was the outcome she wanted to see.

As for Aunt Zhang, she wanted to kill her quickly.

But in the early years, she saw that Zhang was a good dog who had done a lot of things for her and could restrain Nie Qin's other concubines, so she showed kindness and allowed her to live a few more years.

This time, I wanted Zhang to die a worthy death and become the scapegoat after Huo Qi's accident.But now this dog is not only disobedient, but also helps the enemy to bite her back. Then it should be killed with a cane in time.

However, now that Nie Qin has not come back, if she quietly disposes of the Zhang family in the mansion, she will probably ruin her gentle and carefree image in Nie Qin's heart and arouse suspicion from outsiders.But if Zhang herself was unfaithful and died at the hands of an actor, it would have nothing to do with her.

"I understand." Nanny Liu's voice trembled slightly. She was not completely unaware of Mrs. Liu's cruelty, but she had not seen Mrs. Liu so cruel in several years. She could not help but be afraid even if she killed three people with one strike.

Mrs. Liu looked down on Madam Liu's appearance of being a strong outsider but not able to stand on the stage, so she gave her a disgusted look, and then waved her hand: "Get back."

Grandma Liu felt relieved, pinched the corners of her clothes, wiped her sweat, hurriedly closed the door and left.

Nie Ying sat on the bed beside Liu, and when Madam Liu retreated, a look of impatience and anger appeared on that ignorant and innocent smile: "Mother! Lan Zhi is a good girl, I have to let her go." Is she dead?"

Mrs. Liu raised her eyes and glanced at Nie Ying lightly, her eyes seemed to be expressing how outrageous Nie Ying's anger was: "She won't die, she will only cause more trouble for you in the future. Remember, Lan Zhi's love today All deaths are caused by you, I took her life to teach you a lesson."

Nie Ying knew Liu Shi's temperament, although she usually doted on her like an eyeball, but if she really got angry, even Nie Ru would have to shed that layer of absurd jokes and restrain her temper in front of Liu Shi.

She didn't dare to lose her temper anymore, so she had no choice but to purse her lips: "You are just a maid. If you die, you will die. As long as my mother is happy. It's just that if today's incident spreads, outsiders are not allowed to talk about my cousin and me."

Ms. Liu sneered: "My mother has taught you many times that even if the mountain collapses, you should keep your face straight and not let others see your inner calculations. You have done well before, how can you rashly ask for help today when everything is fine? Are you looking for trouble with Huo Qi? If it weren't for your inferior skills, how could you end up being talked about?"

Mrs. Liu did not tell Nie Ying in advance that she was going to deal with Huo Qi, just because she was afraid of complications, but she didn't want Nie Ying to get involved anyway.She has always been willing to train Nie Ying and teach her the secrets of the housewife.But today, Nie Ying took action rashly, and was defeated by Huo Qi.

Calm and calm, Nie Ying only learned the "shape" after all, but never comprehended the "spirit".This made her feel like many years of hard work had been wasted, and Nie Ying's anger at being talked about by outsiders seemed insignificant.

Nie Ying recalled the humiliation suffered by the garden today, and said bitterly: "Because of that evil hairpin on Huo Qi's head, I have seen it in the hands of the Seventh Prince. Mother, I suspect that Huo Qi deliberately seduces the Seventh Prince. After ruining her, is it possible that I want to watch her become the Seventh Prince's concubine!"

A rare trace of anger appeared on Liu's Bodhisattva's face, and he seemed to hate the iron. "Look at how ignorant you are now. Do you still look like my daughter? How can a hairpin directly prove that Huo Qihe It is ridiculous that the Seventh Prince is having an affair! Even if there is an affair, it has nothing to do with you. I have told you to stop thinking about the Seventh Prince a long time ago. What future can a prince who is not favored by His Majesty have?"

Liu Shi has long understood Nie Ying's feelings for Shen Yuning, but she has always wanted to let Nie Ying marry the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince is Nie Qin's nephew, although he is not as popular as the fifth prince, but the Nie family and her mother's family are willing to support him, and there is a virtuous concubine in the palace, and he has also done a few good errands. There is always an opportunity for location.As long as Shen Yuqing sits on the throne, her daughter will be a legitimate queen.

But Shen Yuning was not valued by Emperor Xiaowen, and his mother's right-handed family had long since withered, which was contrary to the position of the Nie family. It seemed that he had a temperament that didn't care about anyone, and he only hid in the Wanfo Temple to eat fast and chant Buddha all day long. How come the prince is modest and gentleman?
In her eyes, marrying Nie Ying would cause all kinds of harm but no benefit.

Nie Ying was anxious and shook Mrs. Liu's arm: "I don't care, as long as Huo Qi blocks my way, I won't let her live! Today she plotted against me again, and it's not my mother's face that she's beaten Mom? Can you find a way to kill her? My daughter is begging you."

"It's not impossible. I can find a way for Huo Qi to see Prince Yama, but I have one condition - that is, you must stop thinking about the Seventh Prince." Mrs. Liu looked at Nie Ying coldly. glance.

After all, she underestimated Huo Qi, a yellow-haired girl plotted against Nie Ying in front of her, and the wild goose pecked her eyes all day long, how could she not hate it?Originally, she only wanted to plot against Huo Qi's marriage, but now she really wanted to do what Nie Ying wanted, and took Huo Qi's life without knowing it.

"Okay. My daughter agrees." Nie Ying withdrew her hand in guilt, and paused for a moment, "Mother, when will you do it?"

Mrs. Liu calmly took a sip from the tea cup and said, "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Today Huo Qi was splashed with dirty water at Nie's house. The Duke of Ning is afraid that he will be resentful. If he takes action rashly again, it will only cause trouble." People are looking at me sideways. Now I can only send some gifts in person to try my best to appease the dissatisfaction of Duke Ningguo."

"You still have to give gifts? She is plotting against me and I still have to give gifts? Then how long do I have to wait before taking action!" Nie Ying said angrily.

"If the Nie family doesn't take action, it doesn't mean that no one else will take action. Your cousin is determined to retaliate. He was tricked by Huo Qi today, and he must get his debt back. We just need to watch from behind. Do you understand?"

Nie Ying nodded thoughtfully, with a knowing smile on her face.

 It has been stopped for a few days, and there are a few treasures who have been voting for it. Thank you very much, bow~
