C523 Exhausted qi (2/2)
”I... In the end, I was fooled by you. ” Auntie Xiao forced a smile and said weakly.
Lian Ru Yue coldly looked at her and lightly said, ”Aunt Xiao wants Lian Shiya to become the fourth prince's main wife. This hope will probably expand because …” She doesn't have such a life! ”
”Y-you're lying, my Ya'er is a rich person, the Queen ordered, her future, she will definitely fly up the golden branch like that phoenix, and you, and you are just a county lord, so what is it? You will definitely, definitely taste the most painful thing in your life in the future, you will definitely, you will definitely. ” Auntie Xiao was breathing heavily, her chest heaving violently, but her breathing was getting weaker and weaker.
Lian Ru Yue shook her head with a cold gaze as she said, ”Stubborn fool, he deserved to die.”
”You, what are you trying to do? You want to kill me? You dare to kill me? ” Aunt Xiao, seeing the cold brows that had appeared behind Lian Ruyue, forcefully swallowed her saliva and said with a trembling voice.
”Cold-browed …” She called out to him, her cold brows slowly drawing near to him.
”You, you …” Auntie Xiao slowly retreated, her eyes filled with fear.
”It's over.” Lian Ru Yue said these words indifferently as she lifted her leg and walked out of the room. When the door closed, a scream came from inside.
The next day, Qing An Courtyard.
Lian Niang and the rest were discussing about the full moon feast for Lian Yan when a maidservant came outside to report that they had found Lady Xiao in the lotus pond. However, her body was stiff and she was thoroughly dead.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but get goosebumps. Mrs Liu asked quietly, ”He died just like that?”
”He was in the west yard, why would he die in the lotus pond?” Someone asked in confusion.
In reply, Mistress, the servants saw a trail of blood extending from the west yard all the way to the lotus pond, so they reported to the Chief Protector Lian Tian asking him to come and have a look. Even the caretaker said that Aunt Xiao tried to escape and crawled all the way out of the west yard to drop a pool of blood, but in the end, she didn't fall too deep into the pool.
”Enough, enough. Stop talking, I'm about to be scared to death.” Mrs Liu shuddered and hurriedly stopped the girl from continuing.
”Yes.” The girl then shut her mouth.
The Second Branch's Hu Shi said, ”This person has committed many evil deeds. At least he deserves to die.”
”She was already abandoned, and was only brought back because of the child in her womb. Who would have thought that the child was also a fake, she could not be considered a Lian Family person, so she ordered, the straw mat was cleared, and then found a place in the outskirts of the capital to dig a grave, bury it, and do not set up the tablet.”
”Yes, madame.”
”From now on, no one is allowed to mention this person anymore.” Even his mother gave the order, and everyone acknowledged it.
”However, if Third Sister were to find out about this, she would most likely be grieving.” Lian Ruyue said from the side.
”Send someone to the Duke of Yue's estate to inform them that she's dead. We can't hide it from mother, or else she'll find out.” However, I've told her that I'm not allowed to come back and cause trouble. If she doesn't listen, then don't blame me, your grandmother, for not doing one last favor. ”
