Chapter 65: There's something exciting to watch
Qu Ling stood in the corridor, looking at the flickering light of the torches in the main courtyard with a calm expression.
She turned around and ordered, "Let's go back, close the gate tightly, and no one is allowed to walk around."
After a pause, he continued, "Tell my aunt a message that something has happened to the lady. I'm sure she'll be happy to join in the fun."
Tingqin responded.
Qu Ling then instructed Su Shang, "You go too, and act accordingly."
If Qu Mingyue meets Qu Lianzhi, there will be chaos.
The news from Yunsong Hall was first delivered to Cuilu. "The eldest lady said that the old lady is ill. Don't alarm her. Just tell my aunt."
Cui Lu naturally would not go against Qu Ling's wishes, and asked someone to go directly to Qu Mingyue's room to reply.
Qu Mingyue sat up from the bed, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
"The Song family is finished. Murder has been done." She stepped on the ground barefoot, laughing almost crazily.
He threw on his clothes in a hurry, without even wearing shoes, and ran to the old lady's bed.
Regardless of the fact that the old lady had already fallen asleep, he shook her arm vigorously and said in a loud voice, "Mother, the Song family is finished."
The old lady was awakened, coughed, and opened her eyes with difficulty, only to see that her daughter's eyes were filled with madness and confusion.
"I want to see how that high-ranking legitimate daughter of the Song family, the Empress's biological sister, was dragged out like a dog."
She was about to rush out, but the old lady grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't go. It's too chaotic outside. Go back to bed and be obedient."
Liu Xuan's death was a huge blow to Qu Mingyue.
Since then, she has not been in a clear mind.
The old lady felt distressed and helpless.
But her strength is no match for Qu Mingyue's.
"Let me go!" Qu Mingyue pried open the old lady's fingers without hesitation, and her hands were so heavy that the old lady gasped in pain.
She ignored the old lady's words and turned away.
"Mingyue, please stay and talk to me, okay?"
Qu Mingyue turned around, her eyes shining brightly, "Mom, I will be back soon. I want to see the Song family become prisoners with my own eyes."
The old lady was so anxious that she slammed the bed. "She is desperate now. If she sees you, she might do something crazy."
She directly ordered the servants, "Stop her and tie her up in the room."
"No one is allowed to stop me!" Qu Mingyue smashed the teacup and pointed the porcelain shard at her neck, her expression half laughing and half crying. "I'm going to take a look. I'll be back soon."
The old lady was so frightened that her face turned pale, her body twitched, and she couldn't speak.
The servants did not dare to stop him. They looked at each other and followed Qu Mingyue's steps to retreat.
When she reached the outer room, Qu Mingyue rushed into the night.
The old lady was panting and said to Cui Lu quickly, "Hurry, follow her. Don't let her get into trouble, and don't let anyone hurt her."
In the main courtyard, Chi Yuan had surrounded the Song family's courtyard, and the two sides were in a stalemate.
Qu Lianzhi was awakened and, despite the servants' attempts to stop him, he walked out of the house.
"You are so brave, do you know where this place is?"
She protected Song behind her and faced Chi Yuan with a threatening look.
"The Dali Temple handles cases, and it's not like they break into people's backyards in the middle of the night to arrest people. Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's accountability?"
Qu Qi was furious and scolded, "Who told you to disturb the girl? Why don't you take her back?"
Song looked at her daughter, who was standing in front of her, with pity, her heart aching. "Lianzhi, go back first. Mother will be fine. The adults just want to ask a few questions."
Qu Lianzhi turned around, his eyes filled with worry and panic, "Mom lied..."
After saying three words, she choked up.
Song patted her shoulder soothingly, then pulled her away.
She stood at the steps, staring at Chi Yuan, a hint of scorn on her lips. "Lord Chi, you have such great authority! You led troops into my mansion late at night, and you think you can arrest me just based on the nonsense of a few servants?"
Chi Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He simply said, "Madam, if your conscience is clear, why not accompany me to the Dali Temple?"
Song sneered, "Why should I prove it to you?"
She glanced at Qu Xi, a hint of hidden hope flashing in her eyes, "My Lord, are you going to allow outsiders to humiliate your wife like this?"
Qu Qi was silent for a moment, then finally spoke, "If you are truly innocent, then go with Lord Chi. If you plead guilty, I will plead for you before His Majesty and ensure your life."
From the gate of the mansion to the main courtyard, Qu Xi struggled for a long time and finally decided to give up the Song family.
His disgust for the Song family has reached its peak.
However, the Song family is powerful and this marriage was arranged by the Queen Mother. No matter how arrogant the Song family is, he can do nothing.
Life like this is not easy.
He was especially angry when he saw that Song was disrespectful to his mother, disrespectful to his sister, and unkind to his eldest daughter.
Idiot, he failed to scheme against others and ended up hurting his own son.
Thinking of Qu Heng with a broken leg, Qu Chen felt heartbroken.
Song must leave the Marquis' Mansion.
Qu Yu has made a decision.
Song's throat felt like it was blocked. This was the husband she had slept with for many years.
When disaster struck, he didn't even say a word to protect us.
"I didn't kill anyone," she said, her voice as cold as ice. "Xu Yu's death has nothing to do with me."
Chi Yuan said no more, raised his hand and waved, "Search."
The personal guards immediately dispersed and headed straight for the Song family's inner courtyard.
Song shouted sternly, "Who dares to be so presumptuous? I am the Empress's biological sister."
Chi Yuan pretended not to hear, "If Madam is innocent, I am willing to accept the punishment."
The anger in Song's eyes almost burst out.
She looked at Qu Xi, but saw that he turned his face away, as if he was not involved.
Song laughed in anger, "You bullied me so much today, I will repay you double in the future."
Soon she couldn't laugh anymore.
The personal guard and two maids knelt in front of Chi Yuan.
One of them was holding a blood-stained bellyband in his hand.
The color quickly drained from Song's face.
Didn't she burn it?
"Master, please spare us," the maid trembled with tears, "We were forced to do this."
She told them everything about how Song and Nanny Yan had asked them to strangle Xu Yu to death.
"My Lord, I know I have committed a heinous crime, but my parents are still in Madam's hands..."
When Qu Xin saw the bellyband, his face turned green.
Even Qu Lianzhi was filled with disbelief.
"Sir, we checked and found a smell of blood in the house, as well as bloodstains that had not been wiped off." A constable came to report.
Chi Yuan directly ordered, "Take the person away."
Song knew the situation was hopeless, but she was unwilling to give in. "Don't you want to know how Xu Yu ended up in my bed?"
She sneered, "It was Qu Ling, it was Qu Ling who did it."
"How dare you wrongly accuse A-Ling?" Qu Chen's face completely lost its good mood, and he was furious. "What did you do to A-Ling? You still want me to tell you everything? You made her leave the Marquis' Mansion for six years and destroyed her innocence. Now you still want to throw dirty water on her!"
Qu Qi was so angry that he was spinning around in circles. "I checked her yard according to your instructions. Did you find anything?"
"I think you've got an adulterer!"
