Professional Ethics of a Concubine

"If what you said about Zhao Xinlan poisoning is true, you can deal with her, but Xie Xiuhan's background cannot be exposed. The Xie family cannot afford to lose this person, and my grandmother cannot stand such a torment."

Xie Jin said in a deep voice.

Ye Qingzhi was not surprised at all to hear him say this.

The family's reputation and face are more important than anything else. How could they expose such a scandal because of a woman?

If you can't understand, just think about the fact that many women who lost their innocence committed suicide because they didn't want to bring shame to their family's reputation.

In ancient times, women were used as tools for marriage alliances and childbearing when they were wives, and as tools for sexual gratification and childbearing when they were concubines. In any case, they needed to remain pure and obedient.

Ye Qingzhi was not satisfied with the answer given by Xie Jin, but she was not angry either.

Negotiations are not something that can be accomplished in one go.

Without a few twists and turns, both sides will feel that they have lost out.

"As long as Xie Xiuhan's identity is not exposed, it's ok to find another reason to remove him from Madam Lin's name, right?

He is the son of an enemy, but he is recorded as Madam Lin's legitimate son and gets Madam Lin's dowry. In the future, he will also be responsible for burning incense and offering sacrifices to Madam Lin. I am afraid that Madam Lin will crawl out of the ground in anger and take revenge on the Xie family."

Xie Jin, ...

There is some truth to that.

"That's the best we can do." Xie Jin agreed.

Because he knew that Xie Mingli would also agree to this condition.

"Then the Marquis of Pingnan... Master, I heard that the Marquis of Pingnan has not stayed in the back house this year. Is it true?"

Ye Qingzhi asked with a gossipy look on her face.

Xie Jin tapped her forehead unhappily and said, "Stop asking about these things."

"It seems to be true, haha." Ye Qingzhi smiled sarcastically.

"Marquis Pingnan is so affectionate for Madam Lin. If he knew that Madam Lin was poisoned by Zhao Xinlan, his good cousin, he would spit out more blood.

If one is consumed by remorse day and night, it is easy for him to become depressed and even go insane. "

Xie Jin couldn't help rubbing his forehead when he heard her unabashedly gloating tone as she watched the fun.

All women in the world claim to be kind and virtuous, but none is as open about her evilness.

Quite cute.

Xie Jin couldn't help but kiss her little mouth and asked her,

"What is your connection with Madam Lin? Why did she appear in your dream?"

"I have a bold and frightening guess. The last time I went to Xiangguo Temple, Master Liao Yin's words seemed to confirm this."

Ye Qingzhi pretended to be hesitant.

"But if I tell you, I'm afraid you will dislike me."

"What guess? Are you really a fox spirit who can communicate with spirits?"

Xie Jin said, patting her little butt, "Where's your fox tail? Don't hide it, show it to me."

Ye Qingzhi,...

When it comes to being sexy, you're still the best!

Ye Qingzhi grabbed his hand and rolled her eyes at him. The serious atmosphere was ruined by him.

"Go on." Xie Jin urged her.

“I suspect that when I fell into the water and was rescued, my soul temporarily left my body, and then Madam Lin’s soul entered my body.

But later I woke up, and Mrs. Lin was a polite person, so she left.

But after this incident, Madam Lin and I have established a close connection, and she has been giving me nightmares. In fact, she is telling me her grievances in my dreams and asking me to redress their grievances.

Last time, Master Le Yin said that my nightmare was a revelation, a connection with my destined person, so I don’t need to worry, it will be resolved naturally when the time comes.”

Xie Jin, ...

Looking at Xie Jin's shocked face, Ye Qingzhi thought secretly, you even believed what she made up, so it would be easy for her to fool you.

Although it sounds mysterious and weird, it is logically consistent.

With her level of deception, she won't be able to become a favorite concubine in the future. Perhaps she can consider inheriting Master Yin's mantle.

It might be a new career choice.

-

After hearing what Ye Qingzhi said, Xie Jin left in a hurry without staying overnight.

I don’t know if he had some psychological trauma or something and didn’t want to sleep with her, or if he was in a hurry to find Master Yin to ask about the situation.

Ye Qingzhi didn't care what the reason was, as long as she wasn't working, she was happy.

This time when she talked with her leader, she not only passed the blame on to others and made the leader work for her, but also vented Mrs. Lin's anger and made up for some loopholes in her past words and deeds.

Killing many birds with one arrow, Ye Qingzhi fell asleep in a happy mood.

I slept soundly all night without any dreams!

-

Xie Jin did indeed rush out of the city to Xiangguo Temple first, and met Master Liao Yin before he had rested.

The two talked for a while, and Xie Jin left with a serious expression.

After returning to the Marquis of Jiangyang's Mansion, Xie Jin went straight through the corner gates of the two mansions and went to the Marquis of Pingnan's Mansion in the East Garden.

Because the anniversary is the day after tomorrow, white veils, strings of paper money, and straw can be seen everywhere in the courtyard of Pingnan Marquis Mansion, and the flower pots have been replaced with white chrysanthemums.

There are underworld items everywhere, so at night, it is naturally very eerie and scary.

During the past two days, except for the servants who needed to stand guard or patrol, no one dared to go out as soon as it got dark, and the mansion felt empty.

I walked for a long time but didn't meet anyone.

Walking in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, Xie Jin felt a little uneasy, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he unconsciously tightened the hilt of the sword at his waist.

He went straight to the study in the front yard to find Xie Mingli.

"Uncle, it's so late, what important matter has brought you here?" Xie Mingli stood up and greeted him.

"I found some things that pointed to Zhao Xinlan as the one who poisoned and murdered Lin Qingwan." Xie Jin went straight to the point.

Xie Mingli's body shook violently, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

"Uncle, what did you find? Let me see!"

"The item is gone. Believe it or not, I just came to let you know." Xie Jin said in a cold voice.

"Before she died, Lin Qingwan learned the truth. It turned out that she had been poisoned by Zhao Xinlan for many years, which led to her illness.

Moreover, she was deceived into recognizing her enemy's son as her legitimate son and raising him carefully for many years.

Therefore, she died full of resentment and could not rest in peace."

Xie Mingli staggered, his face turned pale as paper, and after taking a few steps back, he vomited several mouthfuls of blood.

Xie Jin, ...

Ye's words are really blessed, and what he said is really accurate.

"Qing, Qingwan knew before she died... No wonder, no wonder she never appeared in my dreams..."

Xie Mingli covered his heart and murmured in pain.

At this moment, his pale face, bloodshot mouth, and empty eyes made him look a little crazy.

Xie Jin looked at him, who was about to collapse mentally, and was afraid that he had really gone insane, so he frowned and said,

"The person is dead, what's the point of you feeling regret and pain!

If you really want to atone your sins, sentence Zhao Xinlan to death, remove Xie Xiuhan from Lin Qingwan's name, and don't let him be the legitimate son anymore.

In addition, you must treat the servants she left behind well, return her dowry, and do more to make up for her family..."

These were all Ye Qingzhi's requests, and Xie Jin followed suit.

Because Xie Jin felt that this was probably Lin Qingwan's request conveyed through Ye Qingzhi.

Do these first to calm down Lin Qingwan’s resentment.

Xie Mingli's empty eyes gradually became brighter. He wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and stood up shakily.

"I will give Qingwan an explanation. Uncle, can you tell me how you know all this? Please."

"The anniversary is the day after tomorrow. Lin Qingwan sent someone a message in a dream..."

"Is it your concubine Ye?" Xie Mingli asked immediately.

Xie Jin frowned and warned in a chilling voice,

"She is Ye, not Lin Qingwan who has returned from a dead body. You better be clear-headed and don't set your sights on her!"

Xie Jin told Ye Qingzhi about her speculation and also told him that he had gone to see Master Yin to verify it.

Xie Mingli nodded in understanding, bowed to Xie Jin and thanked him, and explained,

"My uncle misunderstood. I don't have any improper thoughts about Ye. I am just very grateful to her. Please convey my gratitude to her.

If, if possible, she can dream of Qingwan again, please let her confess to Qingwan on my behalf."

Xie Jin nodded, but thought in his heart that the person was dead, so there was no point in repenting.

His nephew is good at studying and working.

When it comes to women, not only is he too deeply in love, but he can't even figure out who he likes at the beginning. What a moron.

This mess also implicated his concubine, which made him upset as well.
