Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.
Chapter 24: Want Her to Die
Old Madam Zhong couldn't accept that her decades of collection had all disappeared overnight, and she couldn't accept that her silver hair had been cut into a shape like a chicken coop.
After waking up and hearing that the entire mansion had been emptied and the hair of all the masters had been cut, he was so angry that he fainted one after another, and the last time he even vomited blood.
Zhong Qingshan had no choice but to hurried to the old lady's yard.
Zhong Ran in front was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared and heard what the housekeeper said.
However, she only paused slightly and then continued walking towards her yard.
The servants she saw along the way only dared to look at her quietly without even greeting her.
Although no evidence was found from her regarding the theft, everyone privately believed that the theft in the Marquis' Mansion must have been caused by her return.
Her past reputation as a disaster was also brought up, and some old people even said that she and Zhong Yan were twin siblings.
Zhong Yan's existence is no secret in the Marquis' Mansion. Now that Zhong Ran has returned, the shocking scene caused is hard to bear.
Therefore, everyone tried to hide as much as possible, for fear that getting close to her would also lead to their death like getting close to Zhong Yan.
Zhong Ran was happy and at ease, not caring what they thought. He returned to the room, but it was empty.
She put the things on the bed temporarily and shouted outside: "I'm hungry, hurry up and bring me food, otherwise I will go to the kitchen to get it myself."
Zhong Yan's meals were delivered to the door of his courtyard by a special person, and the portions had to be large and good, otherwise he would have to go to the kitchen himself.
No one dared to let him go to the kitchen, so she thought, could she also take advantage of him?
The maid outside didn't respond when she heard her words, but ran to find the housekeeper.
The butler was still with Zhong Qingshan at the old lady's place. After being called out, he didn't know what to do, so he had to go in and ask the master.
The old lady just happened to hear it, and her eyes widened: "What did you say? Who wants to eat?"
She hasn’t had any food yet, so why should those people be able to eat it?
Zhong Qingshan rubbed his brows and waved his hand, saying, "Have someone send it to her, according to the quantity and specifications over there."
The old lady looked at him with a dark face: "What do you mean?"
He explained helplessly, "Mother, please don't worry about Ranran for now. The emperor just asked about it. She brought up the issue of the dowry in front of the emperor. The emperor asked us to give Qingran's dowry to her."
The old lady raised her voice: "That bitch's dowry wasn't stolen?"
If that was the case, she would have to have someone move in with her quickly. The room was empty and she didn't feel safe at all.
"I stole it."
"Then what do you give her?"
Zhong Qingshan didn't say anything, and the old lady understood instantly that this meant that she would have to pay her in silver later.
"What does the emperor mean by this? This is our family affair, how can he interfere?"
"Mother, this matter has already been cleared with the Emperor, so there can't be any further complications."
Zhong Qingshan had a headache: "Mom, you have a good rest, I still have to go to work."
"Have you found any clues? We must find that villain. Even if you cut him into pieces, it will not be enough to relieve the hatred in my heart."
Thinking of how her clothes had fallen and were seen by the servants that morning, how all her belongings had been taken away, and how her hair was all messy, she was so angry that her heart and lungs ached.
Zhong Qingshan agreed casually, told the nanny to take good care of her, and strode out.
The old lady was so angry that she wanted to throw things, but when she saw the empty room, she had another heart attack.
Now the house has gradually been equipped with some furniture, but it is only suitable for sitting in the flower hall.
It will take some time to get more stuff in the room.
Everything was emptied out at once. Even if there were industries outside, it would be impossible to replenish them all at once.
"Wait, didn't Qingshan just say that the bitch went to the palace to see the emperor? Wasn't she drugged?"
She had someone give that rebellious girl some muscle softening powder. She should have been lying in bed sleeping for the past two days. How could she possibly enter the palace to meet the emperor?
The nanny was also shocked. The two maids had clearly said that the food was drugged, and she had eaten it all. How could there be no Chinese medicine?
"Could it be because the Emperor summoned her, so the Master gave her the antidote?"
The old lady thought about it and it made sense, otherwise it would be impossible to explain it.
"Find a way to make that bastard disappear." Her voice was filled with viciousness.
Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with her or not, she must die.
The Marquis's Mansion had been robbed once, and if he had to pay her back for her dowry, he would be left with nothing.
Three quarters of the outside properties belong to that woman.
Moreover, the servants' speculations also reached her ears, and she agreed with this statement very much.
She was a disaster when she was born, so she was sent away that year.
If Zhong Yan was not a boy, he would have been sent away together with them.
When I later discovered that the brat was acting strangely and wanted to send him away, it was already too late.
He was like a dog-skin plaster, stuck tightly to the Marquis's Mansion and could not be torn off no matter what.
How could the Marquisate withstand these two disasters?
True or false, she must die.
The nanny nodded slightly and said softly, "Old Madam, I'm afraid this matter cannot be handled for the time being. Otherwise, when the Emperor asks about it..."
If she had not met the emperor and attracted his attention, it would have been easy for them to kill her at any time.
"The Emperor only asked briefly about this matter. That bitch has been dead for over ten years. We no longer have any good relationship."
The old lady said in a hateful voice, "Well, you send a message to Chen."
The nanny quickly praised: "The old lady is very smart."
If Chen takes action, even if the emperor holds them accountable, it will not be their fault.
When the time comes, they can just put all the blame on Chen.
The old lady closed her eyes and felt her blood surge up again, making her throat feel sweet.
She quickly forced herself to relax. If this continued, she was afraid she would not be able to hold on any longer.
Zhong Ran didn't know that those people were plotting to harm her again. Soon a servant brought food, but instead of bringing it in, he placed it at the door and quickly slipped away.
She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered Zhong Yan's words. Her heart suddenly felt a little sad, for the twin brother whom she had only met twice.
He quickly put aside that unnecessary emotion and went to bring in the food himself.
When the food was brought out, she was a little surprised. Not only was there no medicine in it, but the dishes were very good and the portions were quite large.
She didn't delve into it any further and ate it all in one swift motion. Then she returned to her bed and lowered the curtains so that no one could see what was going on inside.
Take out the rewards given by the emperor today, which include a jade ruyi.
It is top-quality jade, emitting a faint spiritual aura.
Jade can be considered a type of spiritual stone, but it requires high-quality jade to match the low-level spiritual stones in their world.
The spiritual energy contained in this jade ruyi is equivalent to the spiritual energy of ten low-grade spirit stones.
She has successfully led the spirit into her body, but to reach the first level of Qi Refining, she will need at least hundreds of such jade ruyi.
It’s a lot of pressure!
