Chapter 40: The Tragedy in the House

Everyone couldn't help but change their expressions, "Quick! Aunt Zhou, take someone to see the young lady!"

Qiu Lixing was afraid of the dark, so she would light a glass lamp on the table every night when she went to sleep. Therefore, when the door of Qiu Lixing's room was knocked open, the situation inside was clear at a glance.

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky and a thunder exploded. The situation inside the house was even more shocking.

At this time, Qiu Lixing was wearing a water-red peony bellyband, standing at the table with a frightened face, holding a hairpin in her hand, and blood dripping down the hairpin. The girl named Qinglian

Huan fell softly to the ground. In addition, there was a man with his upper body naked, lying on his side on the ground, with blood pouring out from his left temple. A blood stain was clearly visible on the round table. Come to think of it,

After the man was stabbed, he first fell on the round table and then slipped to the ground.

"Xing'er?" Yun Ruo couldn't help but exclaimed.

Qiu Lixing seemed to have just seen Yun Ruo at this moment, "Mother--" She threw away the hairpin in her hand and threw herself into Yun Ruo's arms.

"It's okay, it's okay, Mom is here, Xing'er is not afraid!" Yun Ruo hugged Qiu Lixing and comforted her.

"Honglian, what are you doing standing around here? Why don't you go get some clothes for your young lady?" Qiu Liyue scolded Honglian, who was standing dumbfounded. This was after Qingqiao's death, Yunruo arranged for Qiu Lixing's bodyguard

Maid.

Qiu Liyue's cold voice made everyone finally come to their senses from the bloody and horrifying scene in front of them, and couldn't help but turn their attention to Qiu Lixing, who was only wearing a red bellyband.

Yun Ruo couldn't help but glared at Qiu Liyue angrily. Did she care about Qiu Lixing? Was she adding insult to injury? She was really vicious!

"Li Xing, what's going on?" Qiu Jinshan turned to Qiu Li

Liyue is fine, but something happened to Lixing. Could it be that, thinking of this, Qiu Jinshan couldn't help but look at Yunruo. Sure enough, Yunruo looked at Qiu Lixing with a trace of guilt in his eyes. Humph, you can't steal a chicken without losing it.

rice!

"Sister, what is father asking you? Who is this man? Why is he in your room? Could it be that he wanted to be scornful of my sister, so she accidentally killed him?" Qiu Liyue asked very considerately.

Frivolous? The maids and mothers-in-law thought of Qiu Lixing's naked arms and back, and instantly understood, each of them was drawing a picture in their mind.

"Yes, second sister, what's going on? Only if you tell me, can your father and mother make the decision for you." Qiuzhen also fanned the flames.

"I, I," Qiu Lixing glanced at the man lying on the ground again, "I don't know what's going on?"

"How could my sister not know? We could have seen clearly when we came in, that hairpin dripping with blood was in your hand." Qiu Liyue said while pointing at the hairpin that Qiu Lixing had just thrown.

Hairpins on the ground.

Qiu Lixing was confused. She really didn't know! While she was drowsy, she heard someone whispering, "Little beauty, little beauty, I'm here!" and touching her face. She was suddenly awakened.

, then she saw the topless man groping her with his eyes closed. She screamed and jumped out of the bed and ran to the side, but the man chased after her with his eyes closed.

When she ran to the table, she saw a hairpin lying there. She grabbed the hairpin by accident. Just as the man rushed towards her again, she closed her eyes to block it, and then waited for her to come again.

When she opened her eyes, it was the scene that Yun Ruo and the others saw when they came in.

"Sister, you'd better tell the truth. There are no outsiders here. Only by telling the truth can your father and mother make the decision for you. After all, a life has been lost." Qiu Liyue sighed, not talking about Qiu Liyue, any

No one would believe Qiu Lixing's rhetoric.

Would someone chase her with their eyes closed? Could it be that this thief is still blind? Qiu Lixing said this, probably because she was trying to cover herself up from being seen!

"Master! Madam!" Qinglian had already been splashed with water and woke up. She didn't bother to wipe the water droplets on her face and knelt down quickly. Looking at this scene, something must have happened to the young lady.

"Qinglian, what happened?" Yun Ruo asked sharply.

"I don't know! I don't know!" Qinglian kowtowed repeatedly.

"I don't know? You look behind you. I put you next to the lady. This is how you take care of the lady. I don't know?"

Qinglian turned her head and looked behind her. The eye-catching blood made her scream "Ah", and her face instantly lost all color.

"What's going on?" Qiu Jinshan's voice sounded at the right time.

"Sir, I really don't know!" Qinglian kowtowed again, "Tonight is my night vigil, so I took a nap at this table. Unexpectedly, in my sleep, I suddenly felt a pain in the back of my neck. When I woke up,

It was just now.”

Yun Ruo's head began to hurt slightly again. She stretched out her hand to press the center of her eyebrows, and heard Qiu Jinshan say again, "Steward Xia, please send this person to Jingzhao Yin immediately." Qiu Jinshan is indeed an old fox.

, sending this person to Jingzhao Yin is a gesture. If he buries the person privately and is discovered by someone with intentions, he will not be able to explain it even if he has the words.

"Master, that Xing'er..." Yun Ruo also knew the importance of this matter, but if it were sent to Jing Zhaoyin, wouldn't Xing'er's reputation be completely ruined?

Qiu Jinshan glared at him and then said, "What does this have to do with the second lady? Tonight, a bold thief broke into the Qiu Mansion, and happened to meet the second lady's personal maid Qinglian. Qinglian sacrificed her life and killed the thief.

Reward a hundred taels of silver! But this matter will damage the reputation of our Qiu Mansion, so no one is allowed to mention this matter again, otherwise, hum!"

When Qiu Jinshan said this, he snorted coldly, and his eyes were like daggers raking over the spectators. All the maids and women hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Qiu Jinshan was about to leave, Qiu Liyue glanced at Grandma Zhou and said, "Father, if Grandma Zhou hadn't been listening to Yuxuan just now and insisted on forcibly searching my boudoir, maybe Father could have prevented this from happening.

."

Aunt Zhou felt a chill all over her body. It was only because she had said so much just now, but she was obviously watching the man enter Tingyuxuan, how could things become like this?

Seeing that Qiu Jinshan and Yun Ruo pretended not to understand what they meant, Qiu Liyue winked at Qingqing.

Qingqing said quickly, "Miss, it's already getting late. You'd better go back and rest early. Miss An invited you to the palace two days ago. You fell ill. If you fall ill again tomorrow, Miss An will probably carry her."

The golden whip given by the emperor broke into the Qiu Mansion."
