Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C117
It seemed that that person had never expected that they would only want to earn some silver taels this time around. However, they would never have expected that they would actually lose their lives in the midst of their hatred towards the Concubine Fang.
He might have only been thinking about how to deal with the two children. In the end, he decided to pay them both. There was nothing bad about it.
Madame Ye was shocked, she did not expect it to be like this. If this was successful, then there was nothing bad about it, but something had happened, not to mention that the person who pointed at Concubine Fang before she died was a suspect for nothing.
How could the Concubine Fang not be afraid? For a moment, no matter if it was the servants or the masters, they all looked at the Concubine Fang, “Why is that person pointing at the Concubine Fang, could it be that she knows the Concubine Fang?”
Xie Wanqing pouted her small mouth and muttered, just by saying that, she had exposed the suspicions in others’ hearts, so the person who spoke was only a child, so naturally no one would blame her.
Seeing that the person was already dead, the doctor left. Seeing that it was already late, the Madame Ye comforted Xie Wanqing a bit, then said, “Good child, tomorrow I still have to go to school, go to sleep early. I will report this matter to the Old Madam tomorrow to investigate!”
Seeing that Xie Wanqing was no longer so afraid, she immediately ordered the Mama beside him to escort him back to her room.
Indeed, it was already late at night. Xie Wanqing slept soundly, and some people would dig their own graves sooner or later if they couldn’t sit still like this. Therefore, Xie Wanqing just quietly waited for this day to come.
There was someone who was about to lose sleep tonight. One of them was the Madame Ye, someone who was constantly thinking about killing Xie Wanqing, so he was naturally worried.
There was also the Concubine Fang. In the Concubine Fang’s room, the Concubine Fang could not sit still as she sighed continuously. Originally, she wanted to make this man die a painful death, but now, the Concubine Fang wished for the man to die soon.
The person he wanted was fine, but he felt like he was stuck in a quagmire. When the sun rose tomorrow, he didn’t know what would happen.
In Concubine Fang’s heart, there was really no name to vent, but there was nowhere to vent it on, and she couldn’t sleep tonight.
Early morning of the second day, Xie Wanqing woke up a quarter of an hour earlier than usual, to pay respects to the old lady. After eating breakfast, she went to the old lady’s room, and seeing that Madame Ye was already there, she knew in her heart that the old lady must have already known what happened last night.
“Greetings, Grandmother! Greetings, Eldest Young Madam!” Xie Wanqing turned her body and looked at the old lady as she frowned. Even the complexion of Madame Ye did not look good.
“Good child, I heard that something happened to you last night, I’m so worried about you!” The old mistress had always been like this. She had said all that was fair, but who knew what she was thinking in her heart?
“It’s all thanks to Buddha’s blessing, that’s why I’m fine. It’s just that I got a shock when I saw Zhi Zun and Yue Xin. It seems like seeing Buddha meditating every day is still quite effective!”
The old lady nodded, she looked at Xie Wanqing, and confirmed that she was indeed in front of her, and was not injured, and heaved a sigh of relief.
“In this Marquis Anyang’s Mansion, only people from outside can come in. We must investigate this thoroughly!” Immediately afterwards, the tone and expression in his eyes turned increasingly cold and fierce.
“Madam, daughter-in-law thinks that the servants in Marquis Anyang’s Mansion are changing shifts every day, and there’s absolutely no way that they snuck in. It’s unknown whether or not there’s still a spy in our house.” Madame Ye answered the madame.
However, Xie Wanqing shuddered at the side. Could it be that Madame Ye still didn’t understand why she couldn’t get the old lady’s favor?
Firstly, he was a person with a cowardly character, so he wouldn’t fight for a favor. Secondly, he wouldn’t be able to clearly see the scene in front of him if he were to speak like this.
The Old Mistress abstained from gossiping in the manor the most. The Madame Ye was nice, since there were still no words to say, so she decided to speak of it first.
Xie Wanqing was really afraid that the old lady would be angry, but luckily the old lady only said one sentence: “Things have not been investigated properly, so these words cannot be spoken carelessly. We should wait until the truth is determined before speaking of that!”
“Yanqing still needs to go to school, so I’ll take my leave first!” Xie Wanqing said, and then left.
No matter how many mistakes there were in this Concubine Fang, they were still people of the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion. If news of her mother killing her daughter got out, wouldn’t she be treated as a joke in the market?
However, he had already remembered this debt. One day, when he was strong enough, he would definitely take his revenge!
Concubine Fang, she would definitely remember all these debts in her previous life.
In the next few days, Xie Wanqing was still busy as usual, but every night when she returned to her room, the old lady would always line up with two servants to follow Xie Wanqing. It was obvious that she still had some lingering fear from what happened last time, making her feel a lot more at ease.
As for the other ones, as expected, nothing could be found. Even the time when this person came in and hid in the garden, nothing could be found.
The servants who were supposed to be on patrol also tried to avoid the topic. Their words were flawless, and they couldn’t even be charged with dereliction of duty.
Since something had happened to Second Miss in the Marquis Anyang’s Mansion, everyone had to self-destruct.
Xie Wanqing did not probe deeper into this matter, but Madame Ye was prepared to continue the investigation. For Madame Ye to settle large and small matters within the palace, she was always impartial and unyielding, not to mention that this matter involved the closest of Daughter of Concubine s.
The Madame Ye would definitely not be able to see that the person who came back to report was someone who had already been bribed by the Concubine Fang.
Why didn’t Xie Wanqing want to let this matter come to light and then directly tear off the Concubine Fang’s fake mask?
But now, even if it was for the Madame Ye, they could not continue their investigation. If they continued, the Old Mistress would definitely not be satisfied with this daughter-in-law, so on this night, they left the Old Mistress’ room.
Madame Ye was originally a lady from a scholarly family, and was currently reading a book. She was pleasantly surprised to see Xie Wanqing here.
He had been accompanying the old mistress for the past few days, so he did not have the time to greet her. However, he was already very close to the Madame Ye, so it was fine even if he did not greet them.
It was originally a boring and boring day, but now that Xie Wanqing had come, Madame Ye felt much better.
“Yanqing, why are you so late? Why aren’t you going back to your own yard? What are you doing here?” Madame Ye hurriedly put down her book and walked forward to hold Xie Wanqing’s hand.
“Grandmother, I missed you, so I came here to pay my respects!” Immediately after, a few naughty ones snuggled up in Madame Ye’s embrace, looking at Madame Ye’s rarely seen gentle face, which looked as though it was about to drip water.
“You haven’t found the person who harmed you?” Before Xie Wanqing could even mention it, Madame Ye had already brought up this matter, it would save Xie Wanqing a lot of time.
Thinking about it, it was also because Madame Ye had been thinking about finding the real culprit these past few days just because of this matter. Now that Xie Wanqing was here, it was naturally to mention it.
“Mother, since we can’t find out anything, it must be an accident. We won’t do it then. If everyone knows about it, it would be bad. What do you think, mother?”
Xie Wanqing seemed to be speaking carelessly, but Madame Ye had also nodded her head, not because she understood the meaning behind Xie Wanqing’s words, but because she felt that she had really not found out after searching for so long.
“Forget it, I just wronged you. How could I not know who was trying to harm you? However, the people I sent out could not find any clues!” Madame Ye patted the child’s head lovingly.
“As long as I have the love of my first mother, I won’t feel wronged!” Xie Wanqing raised her small face with an even more adorable expression. However, her eyes were glistening with tears, just so that the Madame Ye could remember this account.
