Chapter 325 Scratching
Chapter 325 Scratching
Soon two servants came in and dragged the gardener from the ground out. However, no matter how much the gardener begged for mercy, no one in the room spoke. The gardener's voice became farther and farther away until it could no longer be heard.
After this happened, the banquet could definitely not be held, so Cheng Kun sent someone to send Wang Qiuhe, who was still unconscious, back home.
Cheng Yun'er bowed and apologized to the guests who came today. She looked apologetic, but she was very angry in her heart. It was supposed to be Li Ruolan, but why was it replaced by Wang Qiuhuo in the end? She was puzzled.
Although she did not do this, her maid Xiangling saw it clearly. Someone knocked Li Ruolan unconscious and sent her to the servants' room.
It seems that the key to this matter lies with the gardener. We must interrogate the gardener thoroughly.
When they left, Li Xiaoxiao and the other three rode in a carriage together. After sitting in the carriage, Li Ruolan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then tears welled up in her eyes.
What happened today was too dangerous, but fortunately it was resolved in the end. She really couldn't imagine what her situation would be like now if Li Xiaoxiao hadn't rescued her?
Yes, it was Li Xiaoxiao who asked Si Yi to swap Li Ruolan and Wang Qiuhe, otherwise it would be Li Ruolan who would be in trouble.
The masterminds behind this incident were Si Wei Zhong and Wang Qiuhuo, but no matter how much they planned, they didn't expect Si Yihui to find Li Ruolan so quickly, and then knock Wang Qiuhuo unconscious and put her on the bed.
It can be said that Wang Qiuhuo reaped what she sowed, and ended up hurting herself instead of others.
As for the gardener, he deserved it and Cheng Kun would definitely not let him off easily.
"Sister, it's okay. Wang Qiuhuo deserves it. I guess she won't jump around in front of us again." Si Wei Zhong is a very patriarchal person. After something like this, I wonder if he will divorce Wang Qiuhuo.
"I didn't expect that Si Wei Zhong would dare to extend his hand to the Prime Minister's Mansion. He is really brave." Zhou Lingfei raised her eyebrows and said angrily.
"There is nothing he dare not do. Try to stay away from him in the future and don't provoke him. He is a lunatic." Si Wei Zhong was indeed bold. That was the Prime Minister's Mansion. He was not afraid of the matter being exposed and the Prime Minister holding him accountable.
After thinking about it carefully, Li Xiaoxiao felt relieved. Si Wei Zhong did not show up in the whole process of this matter. If it was really exposed, he could completely push the matter onto Wang Qiuhuo and clear himself of all charges.
Si Wei Zhong dared to be so cruel to his wife who had been with him for decades. He had no scruples at all when dealing with others and would use any means to achieve his goals.
It seems that you should be more wary of Si Wei Zhong in the future. He is smart and knows to keep his son far away. Li Xiaoxiao doesn't have time now, but when you have time in the future, you will not be able to have peace even if you are far away.
Qiao Yueru was so scared that she ran away. Wang Qiuhe was her aunt, how could she be so stupid? She was annoyed and regretful after being tricked by Li Xiaoxiao. She locked herself in her room when she got home and refused to come out no matter how her mother called her.
After a bumpy ride, when they were almost home, Wang Qiuhe woke up and opened her eyes to find herself in a carriage. She was lying flat in the carriage, guarded by a maid.
She stared blankly at the carriage for a long time before finally remembering what happened before she fainted. Suddenly she sat up with alertness, which scared the maid next to her and she almost screamed out.
"Husband, Madam, you're awake." The maid stuttered with fear.
"Why am I here? Wasn't I in the Prime Minister's Residence?" Wang Qiuhuo asked anxiously. At the same time, she carefully checked her clothes and found that they were not what she wore when she went out in the morning. She gasped instantly.
"It was the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Seeing that you were unconscious, he sent a carriage to take you back." The little maid did not dare to hide it and told the whole story.
"Tell me what happened after I fell into a coma?" Wang Qiuhuo was extremely confused at the moment and was even more eager to know what happened afterwards.
"Madam, I don't know much. You were unconscious in that room at the time, and soon after, Li Ruolan came in from outside. Then Master Cheng dragged the gardener in the room out and beat him with fifty sticks. Finally, the banquet was over, and you didn't wake up, so Master Chen sent a carriage to take you back."
She was just a maid and she had no idea what happened in the room.
Hearing her words, Wang Qiuhuo's face turned pale and blue, and finally turned into deep panic. Although the time before she fell into a coma was very short, it was easy to get the answer by connecting the whole thing together.
She was schemed against by someone. Or to be more precise, she failed to scheme against others and ended up being schemed against by others.
In fact, the mastermind of this incident was Si Wei Zhong. She did not participate in the whole process, but just hid aside and watched the show. She didn't expect that in the end she would become a character in the play.
She was in a panic, not knowing what to do. If Si Wei Zhong knew about this, he would definitely kill her.
As he was hesitating, he heard the coachman outside the door shouting that they had returned to the mansion.
Wang Qiuhe didn't dare to get out of the car for a moment. She wondered if Si Wei Zhong knew about it and would beat her to death.
She wanted to ask the coachman to turn the carriage around, but the carriage had already entered the Marquis's mansion. Where could she go if she went out?
Wang Qiuhe was so anxious that she scratched her head. It was not right to go down, and it was not right not to go down. Tang Xiuwen didn't get along with her, so it was useless to ask her for help. She should ask the old lady for help. The idea was proposed by Si Wei Zhong, who wanted to ruin her niece's reputation. The old lady would never help.
After hesitating in the carriage for a quarter of an hour, Wang Qiuhuo finally got out of the carriage.
She walked towards her room very slowly, praying silently in her heart that Si Wei Zhong would never be at home, but the more she thought about something, the more it would come true.
As soon as she stepped into the room, Wang Qiuhe saw Si Wei Zhong's face, which was so gloomy that water could drip from it. He looked at her as if he wanted to eat her up.
Seeing this scene, Wang Qiuhe dared not stay any longer and turned around and wanted to run away.
Si Wei Zhong had already noticed her intention. How could a woman outrun a grown man? After just a few steps, he grabbed Wang Qiuhuo's shoulders, pulled her clothes and dragged her into the room.
"Master, master, please listen to my explanation." Being dragged by Si Wei Zhong, Wang Qiuhuo was almost frightened, and her voice was filled with tears. She didn't want to die, who would save her!
Unfortunately, no one was destined to come to rescue her. Soon Si Wei Zhong pulled Wang Qiuhuo into the room and threw her to the ground like a dead dog.
Then he took two steps at a time and slammed the door shut.
Wang Qiuhuo's heart sank to the bottom with the sound of the door closing.
