I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 318: After Interrogating Lu Huai, Ask Qian Shi Again

"You have a good idea!" Leng Rongyue said sarcastically.

Lu Huai hesitated for a long while before continuing, "When I passed through Banshan County, I remembered that I had an old acquaintance there, so I went to look for him.

He also lives alone.

While drinking and chatting, I heard about the story of Dashi Village.

He said that Dashi Village was located among several mountains and there was only one road leading to the outside.

The villagers there are all poor people who have gathered from all over the country. Most of them make a living by collecting herbs in the mountains.

Some people only planted a small amount of land.

The people there come from various backgrounds, and no one has delved into each person's true origins.

At that time, I paid attention to it and thought about the possibility of going to Dashi Village.

It's dark there.

Even if there are people chasing me again, they will never think of me being in front of them even if they chase them to the horizon.

The next day, when I was going to Dashi Village from Banshan County, I happened to find Qian, Shuanzi's mother, who had escaped with her child.

It turns out that I’m not the only one that Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion wants to kill to silence me!

My cousin didn't escape either.

However, she happened to be out shopping with her son at the time and was not in their courtyard.

But her husband Qiu Jiang was not so lucky. He was killed by people from Qinxing Marquis’ Mansion!

When Qian was returning home with her son after shopping, she met her next-door neighbor who was about to go to the government to report a case.

When Qian learned that her husband had been murdered, she was so shocked that she ran out of the capital without hesitation.

They had nowhere to go and just happened to meet me.

I happened to be alone, so I brought the mother and son with me and came to Dashi Village together.

I made up a tragic story about a woman named Qian whose husband died and who was then bullied by her husband's family.

He also said that we are cousins, she is a widow and I am a widower, so we have been living together ever since!

Just like that, we changed our names and settled down in Dashi Village.”

"Where is the big black mole and a tuft of hair on your forehead?" Leng Rongyue asked coldly.

Lu Huai grinned helplessly, "Before coming to Dashi Village, I cut it off with a pair of scissors!

After applying some hemostatic medicine, we came to Dashi Village.

It healed later, leaving only a small scar.

Even with this little scar, it's still much better than...than the big black mole I had before!

That mole is too... too conspicuous!"

"You are really cruel!

You can kill people, and you can do it to yourself too! Humph!" Leng Rongyue sneered sarcastically.

Lu Huai lowered his head in shame and never raised it again.

Are you feeling ashamed to see people now?

Isn't it too late?

Leng Rongyue looked at Qian who was lying on the ground next to Lu Huai.

"Is Qian mentally clear now?" Leng Rongyue asked.

"Miss, she is now conscious.

I just gave her a pill that will keep her awake for an hour or two.

Miss, feel free to ask whatever you want to ask." A black-clad guard standing nearby said with a bow.

"Thank you!"

Leng Rongyue nodded and looked at Qian, "Qian, did you hear what I just said?

Then stop pretending to be dead!

Lu Huai has finished speaking, it's your turn.

In order to harm the baby in my mother's belly and to harm my mother's life, you consulted doctors and asked for medicine, but you ran around and worked very hard!

You must have received a large reward and are now living a rich and comfortable life, right?"

Qian was still lying on the ground with her eyes closed, motionless and silent.

The black-clad guard standing by stepped forward and kicked Qian, "Don't play dumb, the young lady is asking you a question!"

Qian, who was lying on the ground, was kicked and let out a muffled groan.

She slowly opened her eyes and squirmed slightly on the ground, as if she was trying to struggle to get up.

But he was unable to do it and could only barely support his upper body.

Qian raised her head and looked at Leng Rongyue with a pair of terrified eyes, "It looks like...it really looks like...it looks like the late Madam!"

Leng Rongyue just looked at her expressionlessly, waiting to hear her next words.

Qian took a breath, lowered her head, and continued after a while: "I was originally a servant of the Marquis of Qinxing Mansion, and I have always served the old lady of the Yin family.

I have known about the affair between Marquis Qinxing and his cousin's mistress for a long time.

It's not just me who knows this. Everyone around the old lady knows this, but they kept it a secret from her from the beginning to the end.

After the lady married into the Marquis' Mansion with a large dowry, the situation of the Marquis' Mansion improved at once!

No longer are we as stingy and tight-fisted as before.

The old lady and the marquis also had a lot of money to spend.

Especially the old lady.

At that time, the old lady used a lot of Madam's money to subsidize the Yin family.

The lady married into the Marquis's mansion and her dowry also went into the mansion. Yin was no longer willing to hide outside and be a concubine who was not seen by the public.

She wanted to enter the marquis's mansion and become the official lady.

I still want... I still want the lady’s entire dowry!

The old lady is also greedy.

For this matter, the old lady went back to the Yin family again and again, and the aunt and niece discussed it many times.

Yin also repeatedly asked the Marquis to enter the Marquis's mansion.

The Marquis was afraid that his affair with his mistress would be known by the Anguo Mansion and blame him for marriage fraud, so he did not dare to accept Yin into the mansion.

So Yin threatened the Marquis, saying that if he didn't accept her into the mansion and give her a legitimate status, she would take her daughter to the gate of the Duke of Anguo's mansion and make trouble!

The Marquis was afraid that Yin would cause trouble, and he was also afraid that the matter would get out of hand and be difficult to deal with.

So he went to his wife and cried for comfort.

Finally, he managed to coax the lady into agreeing to take Yin into the marquis's mansion as a concubine.
