Chapter 12 The Prince of the Marquisate who died in the battle is back 5

"No. 11, if I figured out the cause of her death, do you think it would be considered as fulfilling the original owner's first wish?"

"Please do not try to be opportunistic, Xiao Yun. Guessing is just guessing. We need to investigate and obtain evidence. The original owner will wait until you fulfill her wish before she can reincarnate, so please take it seriously."

Xiao Yun curled his lips, "She still has to wait for me to finish. That means there will be one more person monitoring me. I don't like that."

No. 11: "Don't worry, she can't see the process of you completing the task. She can only get the part about her wish from me, and she can also watch the replay of that part, but she can't see the rest."

Xiao Yun nodded. "That's fine. Let me confirm again. As long as I can complete the task, it's fine for me to use any means, right?"

"No, I've said before that the big world cannot change history. In this kind of book world, the hero and heroine cannot be killed, otherwise the world will restart."

"I understand. There are no other restrictions."

"There are no other restrictions, but you can't be too reckless, otherwise being killed by others will also hurt your soul. If it happens too many times, your soul will be weakened and you will no longer be able to enter the small world trial."

Xiao Yun nodded to show that he understood.

After sorting out what she had to do next, she stood up according to her original habit and called someone in to help her wash up.

The two who came in were her personal maid, named Hongling, and another one was named Luhe, who was her dowry maid.

Hongling came in directly carrying a copper basin, placed it on the basin rack, and went forward to support her.

"Miss, you are awake. Are you still dizzy? Lu He went to make medicine. She should be back soon. Wash up first so that you can drink the medicine later."

Xiao Yun did feel weak all over, but because she didn't know what was going on, she didn't use her own pills rashly. She waited until she met everyone around her and then took the pills in the evening. This way she could have a good night's rest and feel better the next day without feeling awkward.

Sure enough, when she finished washing up, another maid, Lu He, came back with a tray.

In addition to a bowl of medicine, there were also several plates of candied fruits and snacks on the tray, which should be for her to remove the bitterness and fill her stomach. It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, which was the time when people tend to get hungry.

Refusing the spoon given by Luhe, she picked up the porcelain bowl to test the temperature. She found it was not very hot, so she swallowed it in one gulp. Then she quickly stuffed a candied fruit into her mouth. Well, she felt better.

This medicine soup is not actually particularly bitter, it just has a strange taste, bitter, spicy, sour and sweet aftertaste. Anyway, it is a mixture of all kinds of flavors, and most people would not like it.

After that, he ate a few plates of snacks. There were only three pieces on each plate. He didn't eat many bites. Then he asked about the situation outside.

"The old lady and the mistress always say they are not feeling well, and you are exhausted. Since the matter is temporarily in the hands of the second lady, you should take a good rest. If anything goes wrong, we will keep an eye on you.

By the way, I heard from Liuzi that the Marquis has been leaving early and coming back late these past two days, and I don’t know what he is busy with…”

The one who answered was Lu He. She usually went to the kitchen or the outer courtyard, and also assisted the original housekeeper, so she heard more news.

The sixth son was also one of the original body's dowry. He was the youngest son of her wet nurse. She felt sorry for her old wet nurse and could not bear to continue to work hard with her, so she gave her a small farm last year so that she could reunite with her family.

But the wet nurse was still worried about her. After all, she had no man to protect her in the Pingxi Marquis's Mansion, and it was inconvenient for her to take care of many things. So she sent her youngest son to live with her to do errands for her so that she would have another available person outside.

Liuzi's full name is Chen Liu, and he is her foster brother because he was born on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month.

I have been close to her since childhood and often played together. It was only when I got older that we saw each other less often. After all, I had to be careful about the limits.

She did not ask the other party to sign a contract to sell her body, but just placed her outside the second gate of the prince's courtyard, as a manager of the outer courtyard.

Liuzi was a very versatile person. He got a lot of information for her in the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion and helped her manage the outer courtyard very well. But he ended up in a bad way, probably because he got in the way of some people. Later, he was falsely accused of embezzlement and was beaten with fifty boards. He died before he could even live a day.

At that time, her original body had gone to the farm to recuperate, which was right next to the small farm where she worked as a wet nurse. When Liuzi's body was transported there, she faintly heard crying sounds. She found out after asking Luhe. This incident made her shocked and angry, and it also accelerated her death.

In Xiao Yun's opinion, the other people in Pingxi Marquis' Mansion were not good people either. The old lady and her mother-in-law looked kind on the surface, but they were actually full of bad intentions.

They all welcomed her with a smile because of her family background and dowry. After all, she was a generous person. Not to mention the New Year and other festivals, she almost always brought small items when she went to pay her respects. They were valuable even if they were in large quantities.

During that time, whenever the two of them said they had a headache or a fever, she would send them a lot of medicinal herbs and supplements, not to mention that she would also take care of them. It can be said that she did a very good job as a daughter-in-law.

Even that brother's wife had benefited a lot from her, but in the end, the whole family watched her being murdered. Not to mention trying to stop it, there was not even anyone who could speak up for her.

Xiao Yun will not continue to keep such an ungrateful person. He has to give back what he had taken from her. She is not a good person to begin with. It is a dream to take advantage of her. It is good enough that she does not skin them alive.

So he said to Hong Ling and Lu He: "Lu He, take the people to sort out the medicinal herbs and supplements in the warehouse. I guess there won't be many left now. Compare them with the list of what was put into the warehouse. Except for those I use myself and those sent to other houses, make a list of those used in the house.

"Hongling, prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for me. I want to write a letter, and then you can ask Liuzi to personally deliver it to my uncle. Remember, it should be delivered to my uncle, and not to anyone else."

The two listened carefully and nodded, "Yes, don't worry, Miss, we have taken note of it."

Medicinal herbs and supplements didn't seem to be very valuable, at least not as valuable as gold, silver and jewelry, but these were the most she had in her warehouse.

It's not just the dowry from before, but also the ones that my parents' and maternal grandparents' families have been sending over the past three years. The good medicinal herbs and supplements cannot be bought with money. Fortunately, the original body was not stupid enough to give away the best, otherwise it would be a bigger loss.

As for other things, the deeds to the shops and farms were all with her, as were the indentures of the people working in the shops.

Gold, silver, jewelry, and other things, all had a fixed number beforehand, and any missing items could be found, and then they could be packed up and taken away in the space.

She planned to convert these large items such as furniture and ornaments into silver and then pick them up from the Pingxi Marquis Mansion.

As for whether they are willing or not, she doesn't care. Even if they are unwilling, she will collect it herself when the time comes. She doesn't want more, just enough to be equal to the dowry.
