Chapter 292 Luo'er committed murder? Imprisoned by Zheng Lingzhou!
Li Qingluo: ……
Oh no, what should I do?
In this emergency, the Tibetans hid in the bed!
Surely Prince Su wouldn't think that he had been disrespectful to him again?
"This...this...Your Highness, I'm so sorry!"
Li Qingluo quickly got up, but in her haste, her clothes and blankets got tangled together.
Li Qinglu scrambled to the edge of the bed, wrapped in the blanket, but just as she was about to fall off, Prince Su grabbed her and pulled her back.
"what are you up to?"
He looked down helplessly at the woman who was wrapped up like a dumpling, "Why are you running?"
"Would I eat you?"
Li Qinglu choked back a sob: "Your Highness, it was this humble woman who was afraid of wronging you."
"How could a lowly woman like me be worthy to share a bed with Your Highness?"
Hearing her belittle herself like that, Duan Rongshi's tone turned cold: "Listen! If I thought you were lowly, I wouldn't have bothered with you for so long."
"Li Qingluo, I don't believe you really don't understand at all?"
Li Qingluo: "Understood, understood. Your Highness is wise and farsighted, and you have seen even the slightest talent in me, which is why you have repeatedly saved me from danger and brought me out of peril. I am eternally grateful and am willing to repay Your Highness with my life!"
Duan Rongshi felt as if a lump had been blocked in his throat.
"you!"
Looking at her beautiful face, as lovely as a peach blossom, he gritted his teeth, wishing he could pinch her cheeks!
Duan Rongshi rolled over and got out of bed first, and Li Qingluo then slowly crawled out of the quilt like a worm.
The two approached the table, and Li Qingluo frowned as she looked at the bowl of red date and lotus seed soup.
"I have this feeling... he's trying to fatten me up before slaughtering me?"
Duan Rongshi: "Perhaps your intuition is correct."
...
The next day, Li Qingluo woke up very early before letting the maid in.
The maid looked at the empty rice bowl with great satisfaction.
"Young lady, did you eat all of this?"
Li Qinglu glared back with a fierce look: "Nonsense! If I hadn't eaten it myself, would I have collapsed somewhere in this house? Why don't you call Zheng Lingzhou over and let him check it out himself?"
"Besides, didn't you send people to guard the courtyard in the middle of the night? Did I ever step out of this room?"
The maid then smiled and bowed, saying, "Please calm down, Miss. I didn't mean to question you."
"Now that you're awake, I'll bring you breakfast right away."
A moment later, Li Qingluo looked at the table full of breakfast and almost felt nauseous.
Which good family gets up early to eat a feast of fish and meat?
Li Qingluo clutched her chest: "I can't eat! I won't eat!"
The maidservant smiled again: "Miss, there's no one to brew that old woman's medicine..."
Li Qing swiftly stood up, drew his dagger, and stabbed at the maid. Although the maid reacted quickly, she still took a blow to the arm.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Qingluo flipped the dagger in her palm and slashed it at the maid's face. The maid hurriedly retreated, but Li Qingluo was now very fast. She reached out and grabbed the maid, and they began to fight.
This maid was indeed somewhat skilled, but unfortunately, her rudimentary skills were no match for Li Qingluo in her current state.
Li Qingluo learned the art of killing, so every move he made was ruthless and fast!
Although the fighting inside the house quickly attracted everyone in the courtyard, Li Qingluo still managed to grab the maid and hold a knife to her neck.
Everyone who caught up and witnessed this scene gasped in surprise.
"She knows martial arts?"
"Yes, it seems like it was Second Master who taught him..."
"Has she gone mad? This is utterly incomprehensible! Quickly, go and inform the Second Master about this!"
Li Qingluo grabbed the maid's arm and squeezed the spot where she had just been stabbed.
Blood instantly soaked Li Qingluo's hand.
The maid couldn't help but cry out in pain, "Ah—you, you madman! What are you trying to do?"
Li Qingluo: "Since you call yourself a servant, then do your duty as a servant! So why are you threatening me?"
"I hate it when people threaten me, because it makes me look incompetent."
After Li Qinglu finished speaking, she walked outside with her maid.
The maids outside the door didn't seem afraid of what Li Qingluo might do next, so when they saw her bring people out, they surrounded her one by one.
Seeing this, Li Qingluo raised the dagger and forcefully plunged it into the maid's shoulder.
The maid screamed again, "Ah!!!"
This time, blood spurted out, but Li Qingluo didn't even blink.
A series of gasps escaped Li Qingluo's lips as the crowd quickly dispersed, and she spotted Zheng Lingzhou rushing towards her.
"Luo'er, what are you doing!?"
"Let them go right now!"
Zheng Lingzhou strode over, his face contorted with rage. Li Qingluo said, "Master, your people are very disobedient. They say they're here to serve me, but I feel like they're more like jailers guarding me."
"Threatening me like this and that is really unpleasant."
"So, Master, did you really tell her to do that?"
"They keep threatening me with butterflies and Granny Deng to make me submit. What's the point of staying here?"
"Or is this what you meant by taking me away from the General's Mansion to live a carefree life?"
Li Qinglu deliberately feigned a confused and heartbroken expression.
Zheng Lingzhou cursed inwardly: I knew she was cunning and unpredictable, but now she's even using this trick on me.
Moreover, she actually called him "Master"!
Zheng Lingzhou was indeed almost bewitched by her...
Although she was much cuter than her cold and aloof demeanor, Zheng Lingzhou had a gut feeling that this was not a good thing.
He squinted and slowly walked towards him again: "Luo'er, be good. Release the person quickly!"
Why do you have to offend everyone?
"You hurt her today, what will everyone in this courtyard think of you?"
"How will you maintain your position at Jingyun Manor after this?"
"Luo'er, of course I want to take you to live a carefree and happy life. You can trust your master..."
Despite the pain, the maidservant shouted back, revealing her true colors: "You wretch! I won't let you get away with this!"
"I served you well all this time, and you still dared to try to kill me! Even if I am just a maid, Second Master will definitely stand up for me!"
"Second Master, save me—"
Li Qingluo smiled slightly, "Zheng Lingzhou, there's another way to establish authority!"
After saying that, she slit the maid's throat with a knife amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd.
The spurting blood splattered all over Zheng Lingzhou. This time, the maid didn't even have time to scream. She covered her throat with her hands as it was slit open, and was killed just like that.
Li Qingluo pushed the person aside and quickly rushed towards the room where Granny Deng and Butterfly were staying.
Then close the door and bolt it.
Screams erupted outside the door. When Granny Deng saw that Li Qingluo was still holding a blood-stained dagger, she looked at Li Qingluo with concern and asked, "Miss, what happened?"
Li Qingluo: "I just killed Zheng Lingzhou's men, he's probably going to go berserk. But if I don't do this, how can I force him to reveal his true colors?"
The butterfly curiously ran to the doorway, wanting to peek outside, when Li Qingluo called out, "Butterfly, come back!"
Unexpectedly, the door was kicked open by Zheng Lingzhou with a loud bang.
The butterfly was bounced away and rolled to the ground.
Zheng Lingzhou, covered in blood, walked in.
As soon as the butterfly saw him, it went berserk and let out a low growl before pouncing on him.
Li Qingluo quickly reached out to stop her: "You're not allowed to go over there!"
The butterfly hissed and roared, its bloodshot eyes glaring angrily at Zheng Lingzhou.
However, at this moment, Li Qingluo dared not let her actually attack Zheng Lingzhou.
I'm afraid I could lose my life if I'm not careful.
Li Qingluo held onto Butterfly tightly, and together they retreated to the side of Granny Deng's bed.
Granny Deng half-stood up and grabbed Li Qingluo, the three of them huddled together, looking more like victims than the other way around.
Zheng Lingzhou laughed in exasperation.
"Luo'er, you're getting more and more skilled at killing people these days."
"Truly a fine disciple personally trained by me, Zheng Lingzhou."
Li Qingluo: "Otherwise, how can we protect ourselves?"
Zheng Lingzhou nodded: "Yes, and it was indeed this lowly maid who provoked you first today. She's just a maid; you can kill her if you want, so why should I punish you severely?"
"But it is still a human life after all. A severe punishment may be avoided, but a light punishment... is still unavoidable."
"You're punished by being locked in this room, and you're not allowed to step out of the door. Reflect on your actions!"
After saying that, he stormed off in a huff.
Li Qingluo was somewhat surprised.
Is that all?
She thought that since she had killed his men, she would inevitably have to fight him and suffer some hardship.
I am also prepared.
I only killed someone and rushed to this house because I didn't want to implicate Granny Deng and Butterfly.
Who would have thought... that Zheng Lingzhou would even let this matter go?
"So, you must have a bigger scheme waiting for me... What exactly is it about me that you want to take?"
Moreover, it meant that she should be healthy, even fatter than she is now, and have more energy and blood.
Li Qingluo was locked in the small room of Granny Deng and Butterfly.
The three of them—master, servant, and servant—shared only one bed, a small table, and a stool.
Granny Deng even thought of giving the bed to Li Qingluo, but Li Qingluo pressed her down on the bed and ordered, "You just need to lie down properly and be obedient. Only when you're well can you protect me and do things for me. Otherwise, how can I explain to Grandmother and Que'er when I go back?"
Granny Deng's eyes reddened: "Miss, this old servant has made the right choice following you!"
Li Qingluo also started coughing.
She deliberately made herself catch a cold last night, and now she leaned against the door and coughed a few times, sending a message outside: "Tell Zheng Lingzhou that I'm sick."
The newly arrived maidservant remained motionless upon hearing this.
Li Qingluo: "Do you really think this door can stop me? I can kill one, and I can kill a second or a third of you."
"Anyone who wants to mess with me again should try!"
Maid: "You! You really think we're afraid of you? If it weren't for the Second Master's order, we would never have let you off today!"
Li Qingluo: "So do you think he will forgive you if you deliberately conceal my health problems?"
There was complete silence outside the door.
As Li Qingluo expected, the female doctor from last night rushed over very quickly.
Li Qingluo was once again certain: Zheng Lingzhou really didn't want to see her get sick.
