Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them
Chapter 62 The Chamberlain's Maid (29)
"Yes, it's her. She's the one I spent the night with at the restaurant that day!"
Xu Yuerao had just reached the gate of the Marquis's mansion when someone pointed at her and shouted loudly.
She stopped and looked at the person in the crowd. She was so shocked that she took several steps back.
Isn't he dead?
She turned to look at Qingya beside her, her eyes filled with silent questioning, but Qingya lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Xu Yuerao.
Xu Yuerao's heart tightened, but she couldn't care less about anything else.
"Shut up, I don't know him!"
Xu Yuerao knew that at this moment, she could not admit anything, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Yes, I also believe that Madam would not do such a thing, so as soon as this happened, I sent someone to invite Madam and the old lady over, so that we could explain things clearly in front of everyone."
This not only concerns the lady's reputation, but also the honor of the Yongchang Marquis's mansion, so it must be made clear.
Liang Qiuli had a serious expression, and her words were all for the sake of the Marquis's mansion, but she just wanted to ruin its reputation.
She wanted to destroy, bit by bit, what Fei Wuxuan and Liu Shi cared about most, so that they would suffer unbearable pain.
Xu Yuerao was so angry at Liang Qiuli's words that she couldn't speak.
"you you……"
"Madam, please don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. I believe you can explain it clearly."
Liang Qiuli said it casually, as if she was really just concerned about Xu Yuerao.
“I have evidence here. Look at this handkerchief; it’s the token that this lady gave me that time.”
The man grinned maliciously and pulled a handkerchief from his pocket. One corner of the handkerchief was embroidered with an orchid and the character for "moon".
"Xu Yuerao, you unfaithful woman! How dare you have an affair with a man like this behind Wu Xuan's back! You are simply...you deserve to die!"
Liu had seen Xu Yuerao use that handkerchief before, so she recognized her at a glance.
His face darkened, and he pointed at Xu Yuerao's nose, cursing loudly, looking as if he wanted to tear her apart on the spot.
The onlookers around them whispered amongst themselves.
"I can explain, it's not like that! Say something, Qingya, say something now!"
Xu Yuerao's face turned deathly pale instantly. Her mind was in turmoil. Seeing Qingya standing to the side, she realized that Qingya was her last hope!
But Qingya's words pushed her even further into the abyss.
"Madam, it seems you haven't had your period in a long time."
Xu Yuerao was also taken aback upon hearing this.
It seems so. Her last period was before she fell into the water, and Liang Qiuli was still at the mansion at that time.
But because she had fallen into the water and was in a bad mood, she thought she had only injured her body and postponed it for a few days, and didn't pay any attention to it at all.
But now, hearing Qingya mention it, I suddenly realized something was wrong.
impossible!
That one time at the restaurant was absolutely impossible!
but……
"you you……"
Xu Yuerao pointed at Qingya with trembling hands, her eyes filled with panic and fear.
But it was precisely Xu Yuerao's action that proved the truthfulness of Qingya's words.
"You shameless bastard! You even have a bastard child!"
Disregarding all decorum, Liu started arguing with Xu Yuerao right at the entrance of the Marquis's residence.
Liang Qiuli coldly watched the two arguing beside her, and only slowly spoke up when things were almost over.
"Qingtao, quickly have someone separate the old lady and the madam. Take the madam back to the manor first, and we'll talk about it when the Marquis returns."
He also ordered his servants to arrest this person.
Liang Qiuli acted like the mistress of the house, ordering people to do all sorts of things.
The crowd gathered outside the Marquis's residence, fearing trouble, was about to disperse.
Suddenly, a servant-like man came running towards them in a panic, and everyone stopped in their tracks, unable to resist their curiosity.
The servant saw Liu being helped by someone at the door, but he didn't bother to check if Liu looked a little disheveled.
They cried out as if it were a lifeline.
"Madam, something terrible has happened... The Marquis... The Marquis, he..."
It was clearly urgent; the servant was panting as he ran, and after talking for a long time, he still couldn't explain what had happened to Fei Wuxuan.
Liu was already furious, and hearing the servant's stammering, she became even angrier.
"What happened to the Marquis? Didn't he go to participate in the autumn imperial examination?"
Liu's heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened to her too? No, Liang Qiuli and the Princess were so close, there shouldn't be any problems.
"My lord...my lord has been...arrested for cheating!"
The servant finally explained, but as soon as he said that, Liu felt a sudden darkness before her eyes and almost lost her balance. Fortunately, Granny Qi next to her helped her up.
"What did you say? Cheating? How is that possible? Wu Xuan has been well-versed in literature since childhood, how could he possibly cheat!"
Fei Wuxuan was always a man of exceptional literary talent, and Liu always believed him without question.
So when this happened today, her first thought was, "Is someone trying to harm him?"
"It's absolutely true. Actually... actually, those articles and poems that the Marquis wrote before weren't written by his subordinates, they were bought."
The Marquis also bought the answers for this exam, but he didn't expect this...
Before the servant could finish speaking, Liu Shi couldn't take it anymore and fainted.
……
"Granny Qi, I just had a nightmare."
The first thing Liu did upon waking was to grab Qi Mama's hand, her eyes filled with fear and unease.
"Madam, what just happened was not a dream. The Marquis... the Marquis has really been arrested."
Granny Qi's words immediately brought Liu to her senses. She sat up abruptly, but her eyes gradually became vacant as she muttered to herself.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?"
……
"My lord, you are truly a prophet! The Marquis has indeed been arrested!"
Qingtao knew that her master had always disliked Fei Wuxuan and had mostly just pretended to be friendly with him before, but she really didn't expect her master to actually take action against him this time.
"I was just going with the flow. If he hadn't been greedy, he wouldn't have ended up like this."
Liang Qiuli couldn't do all of this on her own; it was mainly thanks to her older brother, Liang Wende.
The emperor wanted to select some talented people who could serve him through this imperial examination, so he hated these powerful and influential people who spent money to bribe their way into positions of power.
Because Fei Wuxuan gained access to the Princess through her, he became blatant in his bribery, even offering meager sums of money.
The eldest princess had spoken with the emperor, so Fei Wuxuan had long been on the emperor's radar.
However, through Liang Wende's machinations, Fei Wuxuan was reported during the examination and found himself caught in the crossfire. Now, no one could protect him.
"However, Master, now that the Marquis has fallen, will the Yongchang Marquis's mansion still be able to exist?"
Qingtao asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, just wait a little longer."
Liang Qiuli naturally left herself a backup plan. She would keep the Marquis's mansion, but it would be best to change the name, otherwise it would be bad luck!
