Mingxia looked at the corpse on the ground and thought about how to solve the problem.

Drag him out of the house and hire someone to drag him to a mass grave?

Or should we dig a hole in this yard and bury him?

In fact, it would be better to just burn down the yard so that no one can find the evidence.

As for the other servants, if they see her walking towards this side, will they testify?

But their indentures are still in the young lady’s hands!

See who dares!

Finally, Mingxia dragged the corpse onto the bed, covered it with a thick quilt, lit a candle and threw it on the bed.

Mingxia didn't leave in a hurry. She continued to watch carefully. If it didn't light up, she would continue throwing candles.

She didn't believe that the fire wouldn't start today.

The small flame on the candle immediately produced black smoke when it touched the quilt. Mingxia watched as the black smoke grew more and more and the fire became bigger.

She slowly backed away step by step, with fire dancing in her eyes.

The flames slowly licked the bed curtains, and then the entire bed frame was engulfed in flames.

Ming Xia saw this scene and then opened the door and left.

She calmly returned to the young lady's courtyard and reported, "Young lady, the doctor said that Aunt Wang had taken action at noon today."

Zheng Hualing was a little surprised, but immediately understood, "Well done, all we have to do now is wait."

Ming Xia suddenly knelt on the ground, "Please forgive me, young lady."

Zheng Hualing asked in surprise, "What's wrong, Mingxia?"

"I did not obey the young lady's orders and killed the doctor privately and burned his body."

"..."

Zheng Hualing looked at Ming Xia with complicated feelings.

She knew Mingxia did it all for her.

"Forget it, if you're doing this for my own good, but don't do this next time." Zheng Hualing waved her hand, motioning Ming Xia to get up first.

"Yes." Ming Xia lowered his head meekly.

"Tell me the details of how you killed him first, and I'll send someone to clean up the mess."

Mingxia told him everything he had done.

Zheng Hualing asked Mingxia to call a servant over and asked him to take buckets full of water to the doctor and control the rumors at the same time.

They said that the doctor accidentally offended the woman and was burned to death in his sleep.

Zheng Hualing asked the servant to tell other servants as much as possible about the suspicion that the woman was the murderer.

The servant nodded, turned around and went to do his work.

Ming Xia looked at the young lady with some guilt, "It is my fault that I did not do the job cleanly, and I have to ask the young lady to help me finish it."

"So next time Mingxia wants to tell me in advance, I don't want to lose another family member."

Ming Xia suddenly opened her eyes wide. Family? Family!

Miss……

Mingxia looked up and saw the young lady's slightly sad smile. Her only thought was that she might have to be careful with her life in the future and not die so early.

"Miss, I will try my best to avoid doing dangerous things in the future."

Zheng Hualing nodded slightly, "You go down first, I'll take a rest."

Mingxia took her leave and closed the door gently.

In Lanyue Pavilion, Wei Yueyao was eating the food brought by Gu Luo, and Gu Luo also drank the tea poured for him by Yue Niang.

While eating, Wei Yueyao skillfully maintained the expression and posture that Gu Luo liked.

After dinner, Wei Yueyao was afraid that the medicine powder might still remain at the bottom of the cup, so she smiled and poured another cup of tea for Gu Luo.

Then, after watching him drink the second cup of tea in one gulp, I suggested that they go to the flower garden together to walk around and help digest the food.

Gu Luo also readily agreed.

Of course, she still had to change clothes before going out. Wei Yueyao quickly changed into a bright red dress and turned to ask Gu Luo, "Luo Lang, do you think this color suits me?"

The sunlight shines on the dress, making it look dazzling red and setting off her snow-white skin.

Gu Luo stared at Yue Niang and praised her repeatedly, "Yue Niang is very suitable for this color, she is so beautiful!"

Wei Yueyao curled her red lips with satisfaction. Of course she deserved this color, red, especially bright red!

It will be hers soon.

She had inquired before, and knew that Miss Gu liked to play in the flower garden during this time in the afternoon. She had not finished using up the medicine powder, so she could use it on the child.

As for the prince, take your time, there is no rush.

While she was getting dressed, she poured some medicine powder into the sachet while Gu Luo was away, and now she was waiting to meet Miss Gu.

Wei Yueyao leaned on Gu Luo and let him hold her in his arms as they went out.

She admired the envious looks of her servants.

Servants: ???

To be honest, none of the servants and maids guarding the door raised their heads to look directly at Marquis Jingyang and the woman, but the skirt that woman was wearing was really too eye-catching.

It's red! True red!

How dare she!

She hadn't been married to the master yet, but she had already worn bright red clothes to provoke the mistress. Wouldn't she be even more arrogant after she was married? !

The maidservants and servants guarding the door had no idea how many times their lips had twitched today.

After the two of them leave, they will send someone to report to the lady!

Gu Luo walked with Wei Yueyao in his arms. The comfortable sunshine fell on their bodies. With the warm and soft girl in his arms, Gu Luo looked at Yue Niang's belly with gentle eyes. There would be their first child.

If the boy looks like him, he will definitely become a great general in the future.

If the girl looks like Yue Niang, he will definitely spoil her to the sky.

Gu Luo stared at Yue Niang's belly with a smile on his face.

Wei Yueyao glanced at Gu Luo out of the corner of her eye, and from the look in his eyes she knew what he was thinking.

She pretended to be worried and asked, "Luo Lang, if it's a boy in the belly, will my sister be angry?"

"It's okay. Why should Zheng Hualing be angry? If she bullies you, just tell me directly. I will support you!"

Seeing the beauty frowning, Gu Luo hurried to comfort her.

"Okay, I believe Luo Lang." Wei Yueyao said with a moved face.

As they were talking, they arrived at the flower garden, but Wei Yueyao looked around and didn't see the child. The corner of her mouth turned down.

Why is she so unlucky today? She came to the flower garden yesterday and had already asked for a time, but she didn't come today? !

How abominable!

After casually walking around for a few rounds with Gu Luo, Wei Yueyao wanted to find an excuse to go back to the house to rest.

But as soon as Wei Yueyao turned her head, she saw a puff of black smoke slowly rising from the distance behind Gu Luo.

"Luo Lang, look over there!" Wei Yueyao quickly pulled Gu Luo's sleeve, motioning him to look back.

Gu Luo turned around nonchalantly and his expression suddenly changed. Was there a fire in his house?

He quickly asked the servants nearby to put out the fire, and he also took Yue Niang with him to find out what was going on.

Who is so bold as to set fire to the Marquis's Mansion? !

Or was it an accidental water leak?

The closer he got to Gu Luo, the bigger the fire seemed. When he got closer, he noticed that this was the yard where the doctors lived. A group of doctors were huddled together talking in front of the yard.

This made Gu Luo feel relieved, thinking that no one should have died.

"My lord, something bad has happened! A doctor is still in the house!"

Gu Luo's face froze. Someone actually died!
