After the indigenous heroine was reborn, she went crazy and reorganized the plot line
Chapter 46 Matthew's Death
A month ago
Rong Yingxin, who was going to some state capitals to do charity work, passed through Ningcheng.
She wore a veil and a hat, and was accompanied by Zhongdu's servants. They came to an inn. Not long after she sat down, she heard people talking about someone in the hall.
"I heard that Miss Xiao has opened a porridge stall in front of the Xiao mansion again."
"Yes, Miss Xiao is really kind-hearted."
"That's right! Not only is she the most beautiful woman in Ning City, but she's also well-educated and well-mannered. She's the kind of woman everyone wants to marry!"
Listening to these people complimenting a woman named Xiao, Rong Ying couldn't help but feel a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
An Su, the servant sitting next to her, also seemed curious about this woman.
"I didn't expect that this young lady from the Xiao family would receive such praise from the people of Ningcheng."
Rong Yingxin curled her lips slightly, gently shaking the teacup with her fingers, and said in a calm voice: "Yes, I am very curious about how this Miss Xiao is so beautiful and kind-hearted."
An Su nodded and suggested, "Master, we're leaving Ningcheng soon anyway. Before we go, let's go take a look at the porridge stall. Maybe we can see the true face of this Miss Xiao in person."
This suggestion was exactly what Rong Yingxin wanted at the moment. She smiled and said, "Okay."
After leaving the inn, the master and servant went to the Xiao family's porridge stall.
There were many people queuing outside the porridge stall.
Some of the people were ragged beggars, and some seemed to be refugees from other city-states.
They all lined up in front of the porridge stall.
At this moment, inside the porridge stall, you can easily see a beautiful woman. She is wearing a light blue colorful dress and has a gentle and kind smile on her face. She personally scoops porridge for every citizen who wants it.
Every citizen looked at the woman with a smile, and many people praised her kindness.
"Miss Xiao is so nice."
"Yes, because of her, we haven't been starving these days."
"A kind person, a truly beautiful and kind-hearted person!"
Seeing the people praising the woman one by one, Rong Ying felt unhappy.
Yes, she admitted that she was jealous, jealous that this woman could be loved by so many people, which was what she needed most at the moment.
Rong Yingxin looked at An Su who was standing beside her, and smiled lightly but with a hint of meaning: "An Su, do you think a woman like this would feel pain if she fell from the sky to the ground?"
The sudden topic made An Su a little confused, but she still answered truthfully.
"Master, I don't quite understand what it means to fall from the sky to the ground."
After hearing An Su's question, she just smiled faintly, then looked at the woman over there and said softly, "If a beautiful person who is loved by everyone is covered in dust, how would that person feel?"
This time, An Su understood what was said, but she didn't quite understand why Rong Yingxin suddenly asked this question. However, she answered according to her own understanding.
"It will be painful."
As if she had gotten the answer she wanted, Rong Yingxin couldn't help but smile widely. When she looked at the woman again, there was a kind of calculating pleasure in her eyes.
Is it painful? Very good, then let her suffer.
Not long after, Rong Yingxin brought An Su back to Fengcheng Palace in Zhongdu.
She asked An Su to bring a man who was very ambitious for money and power.
The man came to Fengcheng Palace, feeling both fear and a little yearning. While kneeling on the ground, his eyes kept scanning the palace.
Rong Yingxin saw all of this. She curled her lips and said directly to the man, "Your name is Matthew, right?"
Ma Xiuzhi lowered his head and when he heard Rong Yingxin's call, he immediately raised his hands and became respectful.
"Yes. My name is Ma Xiuzhi. I wonder what orders General Feng has for me?"
This man looks like a handsome gentleman, but according to the information An Su provided her.
This person is profit-driven and ruthless, unscrupulous in his actions and may even sell out his family.
Some time ago, in order to get rid of a woman's entanglement, this man plotted to have an affair with someone else. Now the woman has been thrown into the river and put into a pig cage.
After seeing Rong Yingxin's eye signal, An Su walked up to Matthew with a portrait.
"This is Xiao Huan, the most beautiful woman in Ning City. Moreover, this beauty is also the only granddaughter of Ning City's richest man."
Rong Yingxin curled her lips and smiled, staring at Matthew's hypocritical face after he took the portrait and heard her words, greed and strong desire appeared on his face.
"Is there anything you need me to do, Miss Feng? I will do it without hesitation!" Matthew seemed to have realized something. Perhaps people who are bad by nature can often guess malicious intent more quickly. He raised his head, his eyes full of greed.
Seeing this, Rong Yingxin covered her lips and chuckled, looking at the white porcelain bottle in her hand.
She handed the porcelain bottle to An Su, who understood and took it before handing it to Matthew.
When Ma Xiuzhi saw the porcelain bottle, he seemed a little surprised and looked at Rong Yingxin with some confusion.
"This poison is a valuable item I obtained from a poison master at great expense. Once used on a person, their face will instantly become as aged as an old woman."
Matthew understood what she said. The Phoenix girl wanted him to use the poison on the beauty in the portrait.
But did this beauty offend this noble man?
Before he could figure it out, Ma Xiuzhi, who was very good at reading people's expressions, said to Rong Yingxin humbly, "I understand what Lady Fengnu means. But, what else does Lady Fengnu want me to do next?"
At this time, Rong Yingxin stopped talking, and instead the silent An Su spoke.
"The Xiao family is a wealthy family in Ningcheng. Fengcheng Palace has always wanted to cooperate with them to open a large refugee shelter in a city state in Zhongzhou, but the Xiao family unexpectedly refused. Fengnu hopes that Mr. Ma can become the head of the Xiao family."
These words were made clear enough. Rong Yingxin looked at the excitement gradually revealed on Matthew's face, and she knew that this person understood her intention.
Ma Xiuzhi immediately bowed to Rong Yingxin and said passionately, "I will definitely live up to my mission! I will definitely become the top leader of the Xiao family, and then help Fengnu open a house to shelter refugees."
She didn't need to open any refugee housing; it was just a lie to cover up her tracks.
She waved her hand and smiled faintly, "Go down. I'll wait for your good news."
"Yes!" Matthew Zhi held the portrait and the porcelain vase and left Fengcheng Palace triumphantly.
An Su stood aside, glancing at Rong Yingxin out of the corner of her eye, with some doubts in her mind. Is it really okay for Feng Nu to open a refugee house in this way?
But the high priest was not there, and he had also ordered that during his absence, all orders should be followed by Feng Nu. That was all, she just had to do was carry out Feng Nu's orders.
Memories fade away.
Rong Yingxin leaned on the bench, her cute and sweet face covered with a layer of coldness.
"Why did Matthew fail? Her plan was flawless. What went wrong?"
Unable to figure it out, Rong Yingxin narrowed her eyes, and then gave instructions to An Su, who was as quiet as if no one was there.
"An Su. Send a letter to Yu, and find out the reason for Matthew's failure. Then report back to me in detail."
Feeling Rong Yingxin's anger, An Su was confused but did not ask any more questions. She just nodded, said yes, and turned to leave.
Rong Yingxin stared at the system screen, her eyes becoming a little sharp.
"I lost my points. I must find out what went wrong. If anyone is interfering, I will make sure they suffer a fate worse than death!"
Ningcheng.
The first moment Rong Su woke up, she frantically looked for Matthew.
When Shen Peiqing saw this, he pulled her back and frowned.
"Are you crazy? Matthew is being held by the governor now. What on earth do you want to ask him?"
Rong Su suddenly shook off Shen Peiqing's hand and looked at Shen Peiqing angrily, her eyes filled with coldness, as if she could still feel the overwhelming hatred in them.
This surprised Shen Peiqing for a moment. After a moment of hesitation, before he could come to his senses, he saw Rong Su rushing out of the room.
She happened to bump into Gu Yuer who came to deliver the medicine. Gu Yuer was startled and hurriedly held the medicine in her hand. She looked up and saw that it was Rong Su. She was a little surprised, and when she was about to shout, Rong Su had already rushed out of the inn.
"What happened to Sister Rong?"
Shen Peiqing walked out of the room and looked at Rong Su's leaving back. His face was serious and he said in a deep voice, "I don't know. I'll go check it out."
After saying that, he hurriedly chased after him.
Gu Yuer was holding the medicine soup, puzzled, but when she saw the soup in her hand, she was shocked. No, this medicine soup cannot be drunk if it is cold, but her brother got up early in the morning to cook it.
She looked up at the entrance of the inn again and sighed helplessly. When will Sister Rong take her brother seriously?
After Rong Su rushed out of the inn, she hurried towards the provincial government, thinking about asking Matthew about Rong Yingxin's whereabouts.
She wants to find that woman and take revenge!
When she arrived at the gate of the provincial government, two gatekeepers saw her and stopped her with serious expressions.
"Miss, this is government territory, you cannot trespass! Please leave immediately!"
Rong Su calmed down his emotions, looked at the two yamen runners, raised a friendly smile, took out a lot of silver and handed it over.
"I don't mean to cause trouble. I just know a young man named Ma Xiuzhi. I heard that he was imprisoned. I'm his good friend and wanted to come and see him. Could you two yamen officers please be accommodating?"
The white silver immediately attracted the eyes of the two yamen runners. They looked at each other, then pretended to be impartial and reached out to take the silver.
"Alright. I'll take you in to take a look. You can't stay any longer. This is a serious offense!"
Rong Su smiled and said, "Of course, I just took a few glances."
As long as she can get in, no matter how many times he takes a look, she will definitely find out!
Then, she was led into the prison by two yamen runners.
There was a strong smell of rust mixed with some unknown smell. Under the dim light, the whole prison looked particularly eerie and terrifying.
From time to time, one could hear the miserable cries for help from the prison, as well as the painful sounds of yamen runners punishing prisoners.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, I arrived at the end of the prison.
She began to feel excited. She would soon be able to find out the whereabouts of Rong Yingxin, and she would be able to take revenge right away!
Whenever he thought of this, Rong Su became extremely excited, and even trembled with hatred.
However, all this did not make her happy for a moment. When she saw Matthew falling to the ground with a distorted face, looking like he had no breath left, she widened her eyes in disbelief, and an uncontrollable anger arose in her.
When the two yamen runners saw Matthew's mysterious death, they immediately panicked and someone went to inform the governor.
Rong Su stared blankly at the dead Matthew, then she grabbed the prison bars angrily and yelled madly at the lifeless body.
"Matthew! Why did you die? Why did you die like that? Is there something you haven't told me?"
"Ma Xiuzhi! Get up! Tell me, where is Rong Yingxin? Where is she?"
She was banging on the prison door frantically, her pretty face filled with anger, hatred, and unwillingness.
Her actions frightened the yamen runner standing beside her, and the runner silently took several steps back. Could this woman be crazy?
Rong Su simply couldn't accept that the news, which was so close to her fingertips, was just wasted. She was unwilling to accept it!
She was banging the railings frantically, her hands were bleeding, but she was completely unaware.
Until she felt the familiar pain in the back of her neck and a feeling of dizziness came over her again. With her blurred vision, she saw Shen Peiqing's handsome face that seemed to be lost in thought. She wondered why it was still this brat, and then she completely lost consciousness.
Shen Peiqing supported Rong Su, who had been knocked unconscious by him, and looked at the frightened yamen runner. He said softly, "She is emotionally unstable. I'm sorry. There may be something fishy about Matthew's strange death. I hope the yamen runner can investigate it."
The yamen runner felt a sense of responsibility when this cool and handsome young man spoke to him so kindly. He nodded seriously and said, "As a yamen runner, I will do my best to find out the cause and truth of Matthew's death!"
"Okay, thank you." Shen Peiqing didn't stay any longer. He helped the unconscious Rong Su out of the prison and returned to the inn.
As soon as she returned to the inn, Rong Su woke up. When she saw Shen Peiqing, she raised her hand and slapped Shen Peiqing.
A bright red palm print instantly appeared on Shen Peiqing's right cheek. He was stunned and frowned. The burning feeling on his face made him angry.
"Why are you crazy?"
Rong Su bit her lip and said angrily: "I'm crazy, what does it have to do with you!"
After saying that, Rong Su turned around and went back to her room, closing the door with a loud bang.
The shop owner and the waiter were startled. The waiter was a little worried and came over to Shen Peiqing enthusiastically and said, "Did you offend this girl? In fact, if you make a girl angry, you can try to make her something she likes to eat, so that she will calm down quickly."
Shen Peiqing glanced at the waiter with a cold gaze. The waiter shuddered and took a few steps back in fear.
"Who's going to cook for her?"
After saying this, Shen Peiqing returned to his room angrily.
This made the waiter feel awkward and he turned around and went back to work helplessly.
