I just want to rob you of your luck

When Zhou met Jiang Cheng's cold eyes, she was frightened and felt as if all her thoughts were seen through.

Jiang Cheng's cold voice came: "Come here, send Zhou back to the main courtyard. Don't let her out without my order."

He needs to find out the specific situation before making any plans.

Zhou did not dare to resist, knowing that the matter might be exposed this time, so she could only be sent back to the main courtyard and placed under house arrest.

But she still had a glimmer of hope. After all, she had never poisoned anyone. She only used a sterilizing drug, and the poisoning had nothing to do with her.

Jiang Cheng went to the woodshed, where the two servants were tied up and gagged, waiting for trial in fear.

"If you take the initiative to confess the mastermind now, I might spare your lives. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. You probably don't want to know how spies are treated on the battlefield."

Jiang Cheng's tone was calm, but everyone who knew him knew that he had really decided to kill.

The men took the rags out of the two servants' mouths.

One of the servants said directly: "I'm telling you, please spare my life, my Lord. It was my Madam who asked me to soak the tea leaves with the infertility drug and then gave it to Madam Lin in your name."

Jiang Cheng knew that he was probably not lying, so he asked a guard to lock the man up in another room.

Then he looked at the other silent servant.

"You're not going to tell me anymore?"

The boy was so frightened that his face turned pale, but he still didn't say a word.

Jiang Cheng was so angry that he laughed. He is a man of integrity.

"Gu Feng, cut off two of his fingers."

"Yes, my lord." Gu Feng walked forward, drew out his long sword, pressed the man's hand to the ground and pressed it lightly with the blade.

Two fingers were cut off at the same time.

The man let out a shrill scream, fell to the ground, and rolled over in pain, covering his hand where two fingers were missing.

"What? You're still not going to tell me? Gu Feng, chop off one of his hands this time!"

The man was sweating profusely, struggling in his mind. Finally, when one of his hands was held by Gu Feng, he said weakly: "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

Jiang Cheng snorted coldly, thinking he was very courageous: "Go ahead."

The man got up and knelt in front of Jiang Cheng and kowtowed three times: "I was coerced by someone, and my family is controlled by him. If I don't listen to him, my family will be in danger. Please save my family, Lord. I will tell you anything."

Jiang Cheng heard this, it seems that Zhou was the one who ordered this? But Jiuer has been in the Marquis' Mansion since she was a child, and she has never offended anyone except Zhou, so who could it be?

"Tell me your home address and I will send someone to rescue your family. Don't worry, I will keep my promise, but you must tell the truth and not hide anything."

When the man heard this, he quickly told his home address. Jiang Cheng arranged for Gu Lei to go out and rescue them, and ordered them to capture them alive.

The servant felt relieved when he saw that Jiang Cheng kept his word.

"I only know that the man's surname is Duan, and he is a steward in the Zhenguo Mansion. He gave me a packet of medicine powder and asked me to sprinkle it on the vegetables that Madam Lin eats. I don't know what the medicine powder is, but I have no choice but to do as he said."

Jiang Cheng almost laughed out of anger. It turned out that it was someone from the Zhenguo Mansion who instructed him to do this for a long time. It seemed that Jiuer's identity was exposed and blocked some people's way.

"If you were asked to identify him, could you recognize his face?"

The servant nodded: "Although I have only seen him twice, I have a deep impression of him. He has a big mole at the corner of his mouth, and there is a black hair on it!"

Jiang Cheng said, "Okay, the day after tomorrow, I will take you to the Zhenguo Mansion. You will then come forward to identify the person who contacted you. If you do well, I will properly arrange for your family."

"Yes, I will definitely identify the Duan guy."

Jiang Cheng ordered people to lock up the two men, and then returned to Lin Jiuer's room.

He had been staying by Lin Jiuer's bed, looking at her peaceful sleeping face, feeling a dull pain in his heart. At this moment, he suddenly realized how afraid he was of losing Lin Jiuer.

He Zhongliang kept saying that Jiuer was tortured in Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and I thought he was so powerful. But just one day after the matter was exposed, someone in Zhenguo Mansion wanted to kill Jiuer.

These parents are so useless, Jiuer might as well not acknowledge them.

At least the Marquis' Mansion has a simple staff, Zhou is under house arrest, and as long as the others keep a close eye on her, there won't be any danger.

In the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, the three branches all live together, and the old lady is also there. I heard that the two branches have many wives and concubines, and the relationships in the mansion are complicated, so it is very troublesome to recognize this marriage.

The day after tomorrow is the day for the recognition of relatives. If Jiuer still cannot wake up tomorrow, he will bring people to make a scene at the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion.

An hour later, Gu Lei returned with a few guards, and two people were escorting behind them.

Jiang Cheng went out to ask some questions, and the two men said that they were instructed by Steward Lin from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to control the boy's parents.

Jiang Cheng had the two men detained, waiting to be taken to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion the day after tomorrow.

Now he just hopes Jiuer is safe and sound.

-

Lin Jiuer opened her eyes and felt like she had slept for a century. Her head was still a little dizzy.

"So thirsty."

"Jiuer, are you awake?" A surprised voice came from the side.

Lin Jiuer looked to the side and saw Jiang Cheng's usually calm face revealing a surprised smile.

"My Lord, what's wrong with me? I feel dizzy and I want to drink some water."

"Okay, wait for me to get you some water."

He sent all the maids away and stayed alone with Lin Jiuer.

He almost didn't sleep all night, worried that if something happened to Lin Jiuer, he would miss it.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng had blue stubble on his face, dark circles under his eyes, and looked a little haggard, but he was happy to see Lin Jiuer waking up.

He poured a glass of water, helped Lin Jiuer up, and fed her the water.

"Jiu'er, how do you feel?"

Lin Jiuer moved her arms, stretched, and felt okay.

"I feel fine, my lord, don't worry."

Jiang Cheng hugged Lin Jiuer tightly and said, "I'm glad you're okay. You don't know how worried I was that you wouldn't be able to wake up last night."

Lin Jiuer's eyes flickered. She cherished her life very much, so she would not die so easily.

Jiang Cheng told Lin Jiuer what happened last night and she was also shocked. She didn't expect that someone in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion wanted to kill her.

She said she was wondering why she didn't feel any better after taking the blood-energy pill, and it turned out that she was poisoned by another kind of poison.

Lin Jiuer was so angry that she was speechless.

"Jiu'er, don't worry. I have already arrested those people who harmed you. I will accompany you to the Zhenguo Mansion tomorrow and bring those people with you. I will make sure that the Zhenguo Mansion gives you an explanation."

Jiang Cheng also wants to go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion tomorrow to get back at him. It will be very interesting to see He Zhongliang get humiliated then.

There was a cold look in Lin Jiuer's eyes. She had actually been plotted against. She must avenge herself.

It seems that my stepfather's concubine is very powerful. She arranged people to harm me just after receiving the news.

They were probably afraid that if they went back and identified the adoptive father, they would be implicated?

Lin Jiuer rested for a day, and Jiang Cheng did not go anywhere and stayed by her side the whole day.

Early the next morning, Lin Jiuer and Jiang Cheng got up, washed and packed their bags, planning to go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion early.
