Chapter 150 Corpse Dissolving Water
"I don't know." Lady Xiangyang's face was pale, with a strange look in her eyes. "After I learned that your father had a mistress outside, I advised him not to treat the girl so unfairly. It would be better to bring her into the mansion to live with us."
"But your mother insisted on not letting me stay in Jinling alone."
"Come to think of it, she's quite free and easy living over there by herself. Maybe she's not used to the capital yet."
Could this femme fatale be so kind?
Shen Wan didn’t believe it.
Even if she really said this, she definitely had no good intentions. Just look at Wang Xifeng and You Erjie.
The pain of breaking the wrist was so great that the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang could not help but gasp in pain.
"The year after I gave birth to your sister, your father suddenly brought you back home." She gritted her teeth and spoke hoarsely, "He said your mother suddenly jumped into the river for some unknown reason, so he brought you back to me to raise."
"Wan'er, ask yourself, has your mother ever abused you over the years?"
"No matter what you eat or use, how is it not the same as your sister's?"
"When your father wanted to take Yan'er to the border, I persuaded him to take you with him."
"If you hadn't experienced the border, why would the emperor choose you to be the Crown Princess?"
If she said something else, Chen Wan might believe it, but when she sent the original owner to the border, wasn't it because she was an eyesore?
In the wealthy families in the capital, it was not uncommon for the legal mother to abuse the concubine's daughter, but no family dared to do what the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang did and directly sent the concubine's daughter to the border military camp.
After all, swords and knives have no eyes, and the battlefield will be stained with blood if you are not careful. They will surely be drowned by the saliva of the crowd.
"So that's how much you love me!" Shen Wan raised her eyebrows and sneered with disdain, "Because you love me, you and your daughter ordered people to poison my food and turned me into this half-human, half-ghost appearance?"
If it weren't for them, mother and daughter, the original owner's life would not have been so miserable.
With her outstanding beauty and talent, how could she have ended up with such a tragic ending of dying on the street?
How could the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang admit it?
"No, no, no, I swear, I really didn't do this." She shook her head desperately and explained, "Yan'er was young at the time and was too jealous. She did such a stupid thing in the heat of the moment."
"Wan'er, you can't kill me no matter what. I'm your legal mother!"
"If this gets out, how will you survive in Wei?"
In the Wei Dynasty, a concubine's son who murdered his biological mother would be executed by slow slicing.
At this time, Lady Xiangyang had every reason to believe that this clown girl would not dare to do anything to her.
As long as I am still alive, I must avenge today's vengeance!
"Just because Wan'er is not able to do it doesn't mean I can't!" Xie Mubai's face was gloomy, and there were some icy flowers floating in his dark eyes.
Before he finished speaking, he raised his knife and swung it down.
Before the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang could even struggle, she fell in a pool of blood.
"Since she doesn't have the antidote, there's no point in keeping her." Looking at the corpse on the ground, Xie Mubai stood up. "I'll take care of this. See if there's anything useful in the village."
Since the villagers here have been selling medicinal herbs all year round, they must have something that Harley Quinn wants.
When Shen Wan heard this, her dog eyes suddenly lit up.
She threw the silenced pistol into the space and began to search for herbs at a rapid speed.
Although this house is shabby, it contains a lot of herbs.
Things like honeysuckle and patchouli, although not very valuable, are definitely useful in this hot summer.
If there is any surplus, it is very convenient to sell it.
Soon, all the herbs inside and outside the house were collected by her into the space.
When I came out of the house, the bodies in the yard had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a few puddles of yellow water with a strong foul smell.
"What's that smell? It's so bad!" Shen Wan frowned and quickly covered her nose.
Xie Mubai glanced at her and told her the truth: "Corpse dissolving water."
“Where did you get it?” Shen Wan couldn’t help but look surprised when she heard this.
Xie Mubai didn't want to hide it, and took out all the things from his arms: "My people gave it to me in Changping."
"He gave me not only this, but also some silver notes."
"I was thinking of buying you something in the county ahead. Since you asked, take these banknotes and buy whatever you like."
Seeing the villain's good attitude, Shen Wan smiled and touched his head.
Someone was so tall that when he saw Harley Quinn standing on tiptoe, he lowered his head obediently.
"You're so good." She took the banknotes from the villain's hand, leaving only one. "As a man, you should always have some money on you. You can't let people say I'm abusing you."
"Of course I can't give you too much. There's a saying that men become bad when they have money. I'm just thinking about you."
She has to keep an eye on the villain's money. She is living frugally here, what if it is spent by other young ladies?
"Please clean up this corpse water. The smell is really terrible." Shen Wan frowned and said with disgust, "I'll go out and take a look."
Xie Mubai nodded obediently.
After leaving the thatched cottage, Shen Wan had not walked for long when she saw a well in the center of the village.
She remembered Hu Dahai's words and went forward to get a bucket.
The water is very clear, but if you smell it carefully, you can smell a faint medicinal fragrance.
It’s strange, why does this well water smell like medicine?
No wonder Scarface went to this village to fetch water instead of the nearby one. He must know something.
But why didn't he tell it, not even to Hu Dahai?
While I was daydreaming, a strange sound came from the ancestral hall next to me.
Shen Wan's eyes tightened, she took out a pistol from the space, and walked straight in.
Inside the huge ancestral hall, all the villagers, young and old, were lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth.
No wonder there was no one in the village, it turned out that they had all been killed by the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang!
Seeing this, Shen Wan stepped forward to check on the villagers.
Fortunately, they were poisoned for a short time, otherwise they would have died long ago.
When they saw a stranger coming, the villagers were so scared that they trembled all over and looked at her with horror.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!" Shen Wan said as she gave them acupuncture. "I beat those bad guys away. They won't come back."
Seeing that she was very skilled in acupuncture, the fear in the villagers' eyes gradually disappeared.
Soon, they were leaning over and vomiting.
After emptying the poison from their stomachs, Shen Wan fed them the antidote.
Gradually, the villagers' faces regained some color and they looked much better.
"Thank you so much for saving my life!" An elderly man knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily. "I am the village chief here. Early this morning, an old lady brought a few people to discuss business."
"But I never thought they would come to take our lives!"
Shen Wan naturally knew that Lady Xiangyang Hou had chosen this place to wait for her, but she couldn't say it.
However, she still had to teach these unscrupulous businessmen a lesson.
