Chapter 85 Burning the Ancestral Hall
Qu Lianzhi knelt in the ancestral hall until her knees had lost feeling, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
"Why did you kick her in the stomach?" Qu Yi came and brought her food and a cloak.
"I'll just give birth to it and then kill it, so that you'll be punished by your father to kneel again."
Although Qu Yi said that no one was allowed to come in, the mansion was in such a mess that no one dared to stop Qu Yi.
"We are not as good as Qu Ling." Qu Lianzhi said this without any context.
Qu Yi sat down next to her and asked, "Why did you mention her?"
It was a most vicious and poisonous snake.
"She never hesitates when she strikes," Qu Lianzhi closed her eyes and let the tears flow, "quickly and ruthlessly."
"I want to be like her." Qu Lianzhi said.
Qu Yi frowned, "If I had known earlier, I should have gone to pick her up myself and killed her on the way back to Beijing."
"It doesn't matter, we can still kill her now." Qu Lianzhi's eyes were red.
Qu Ling must not be kept here. Even if she and her two brothers join forces, they cannot defeat her.
We can only kill it to eliminate future troubles.
"No hurry," Qu Yi lowered his voice, "I'll kill that bitch first and let you vent your anger."
Qu Lianzhi nodded.
After seeing her grandfather today, she felt much more at ease.
Even though my mother is dead, she still has the blood of the Song family flowing in her veins.
When the Marquis's Mansion was in trouble, my grandfather came with the imperial physician and asked for the title of Crown Prince for Ah Heng.
She couldn't live in Nuanshanju forever, she wanted to live in the Song family.
Only by relying closely on the Song family can one have a chance to succeed.
But she hasn't figured out how to do it yet.
Qu Yi chatted with her for a while before leaving.
"Tomorrow, I'll ask my father to let you out."
Qu Lianzhi didn't know whether she heard it or not. In the silent ancestral hall, she stared at the ancestral tablet and sneered.
These cold pieces of wood are offered as sacrifices by future generations for nothing.
As night fell, the two maids at Nuanshanju were discussing something.
"The girl told us to burn down the ancestral hall." Guanqi was so excited that he kept poking his hands.
When Qu Ling left that day, he only took Tingqin with him, and Su Shang also stayed in the mansion.
All the news from the Marquis' Mansion reached Qu Ling's ears as soon as possible.
Qu Ling had not given any instructions until today, when he took action.
"Then I'll go." Su Shang stood up and was about to leave.
Guanqi grabbed her and said, "The girl said it was about to break dawn."
She pointed to the dark sky outside and rolled her eyes, "Is it dawn?"
"What should we do now?" Su Shang asked.
Guanqi yawned and said, "Go to sleep and recharge your energy."
As dawn was about to break, thick smoke rose from above the ancestral hall.
The servants in the Marquis' Mansion had already stood up at this time.
"It's on fire."
Panic shouts broke the early morning silence.
Qu Lianzhi was awakened by the burning smell that suddenly entered his nose.
She opened her eyes and found that the tablets on the altar were all over the place and the candlesticks were all overturned.
Looking up, I saw that the tiles on the roof of the ancestral hall had been peeled off and there were traces of kerosene on the ground.
Qu Ling sent someone to do it, Qu Lianzhi thought.
Thick smoke billowed and the fire quickly spread to the beams and pillars.
Qu Lianzhi struggled to get up, but found that his legs were already numb and he couldn't stand up at all. His head was also dizzy and the sleepiness had not completely faded away.
"Help!"
She slapped herself hard and became much more sober.
Two people appeared in the ancestral hall, Su Shang and Guan Qi.
"The eldest lady said that if the second lady wants to leave the mansion, this is a good time." Guanqi lowered his voice as he went to support Qu Lianzhi.
Qu Lianzhi wanted to run out, but was stopped by Guanqi.
"Miss, don't you want to leave the Marquis' Mansion?" The little maid smiled with ulterior motives.
"Let go!" Qu Lianzhi tried to shake off her hand.
She understood the purpose of watching the chess game, which made her even more terrified.
Why can Qu Ling always guess her thoughts so easily?
The thought of leaving the Marquis' Mansion had just come to her mind.
But Qu Ling had already built the bridge for her.
Servants rushed to the ancestral hall from all directions.
"Girl, don't hurt your face." Guanqi let go of his hand.
Qu Lianzhi lowered his head and smiled bitterly, a cruel look flashed in his eyes, and he rushed towards the burning pillar.
It hurts.
The smell of burning flesh instantly filled the air. The severe pain made her vision go black and her clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
She hissed.
Guanqi and Su Shang looked at each other, then both stepped forward and carried Qu Lianzhi out.
Qu Lianzhi sneered with a pale face. She escaped from the ancestral hall and looked back, watching the hall being swallowed up bit by bit.
Well cooked.
Before Qu Lianzhi passed out, these three words flashed through his mind.
Old Madam Song arrived faster than expected.
She sat beside Qu Lianzhi's bed and was furious when she saw her granddaughter's bloody arm.
"Why make the second young lady kneel in the ancestral hall?" she asked sternly.
Jin Dan told the whole story of how Aunt Miao used a self-torture trick to harm Qu Lianzhi.
Old Madam Song was extremely angry.
Qu Lianzhi slowly opened her eyes, tears streaming down her face. "Grandma, please save Lianzhi. Lianzhi is dying."
She cried bitterly, "If my elder sister hadn't asked her maid to look after me when she left, I would probably be dead by now."
Qu Ling wanted her to go to the Song family to muddy the waters, which led to this fire.
She accepted the favor and also freed the two maids.
However, when she went to the Song family, she would not help Qu Ling deal with the Song family. She would kill Qu Ling first and then kill Song Yuzhen.
The position of Crown Princess is hers.
"Grandma, I should die with my mother to avoid suffering in life."
Qu Lianzhi cried bitterly.
Old Madam Song felt heartbroken when she thought of her daughter who had died a few days ago.
She felt sorry for her daughter. It was Song Guang who didn't let her daughter live.
"No one is allowed to hurt you!" Old Madam Song's face was grim, and she slammed her cane on the ground. "Where is the Marquis?"
Qu Qi hurried over, but before he could say anything, Old Madam Song pointed at his nose and cursed, "For a lowly concubine, you want to burn your own daughter to death?"
"Mother-in-law, you are wise," Qu Xi was worried about the burning of the ancestral hall. "Why would I harm my own daughter?"
"Where's Concubine Miao?" Old Madam Song said sternly, "Drag that vixen over here."
She gave orders in the Marquis's Mansion as if it were her own backyard.
Qu Xin no longer dared to offend the Song family, but he could no longer ignore it.
"Don't go!"
He said coldly, "Miao Yi Niang lost her child and is recuperating. It is inconvenient for her to come and see guests."
This guest naturally refers to Old Madam Song.
"You know how much you feel for a concubine, but my daughter gave birth to two sons and a daughter for you, but why didn't you say a word for her when she was in trouble?"
Old Madam Song's gaze shifted to his severed hand, and every word pierced her heart. "You've committed evil in the past by trying to get close to our Song family, and now you've received retribution. You're afraid, so you're being kind and wanting to protect a concubine?"
She sneered repeatedly, "I want to see if you, a spineless person like you, really have the courage to get angry for your beloved."
The strings in Qu Xi's mind broke.
