Chapter 251: If the resentful one is not her, could it be Yanran?
Ling Qi: “…”
Ling Qi was so angry that his throat couldn't help but get stuck. "I don't know how I have offended Your Highness to cause you to speak so harshly. I hope Your Highness will be willing to teach me a lesson!"
He and Lu Zhiheng had no grudges in the past or present, and he didn't know what he had done to displease this ancestor, causing this evil god to humiliate him in front of so many people.
Lu Zhiheng didn't want to talk.
He had originally just come here with Su Tan, and deep down he didn't really want to get involved in this matter. He just planned to stand still and act like a piece of wood.
But he really couldn't bear to see it anymore!
"This king is quite broad-minded. I believe I have been lenient towards fools and lazy people."
Lu Zhiheng's sharp tongue was world-famous. At his peak, he even made an old minister so angry that he vomited blood and almost died by hitting his head against a pillar. If there hadn't been someone around to pull him out quickly, the old minister might have really gone to see the King of Hell.
Lu Zhiheng felt that he hadn't cursed anyone for a long time.
He has always wanted to be a gentle, polite, elegant and easy-going person.
I will never curse unless necessary.
Unless you really can’t help it!
"Prince Ling, do you know what kind of people I hate the most in my life?"
Before Ling Qi could answer, Lu Zhiheng's words were like a poisoned sword, eager to pierce Ling Qi, "It's people like you who are both stupid and hardworking."
"Evil men rack their brains, but they are no match for a fool like you who has a sudden inspiration!"
"If your wife is the vengeful ghost, why did Master Su stop you from attacking her just now? Wouldn't it be better to let you kill the vengeful ghost to pieces?"
"You think that Master Su and I are so bored that we have to lead the Imperial Guards to your Xingguo Mansion in the middle of the night, knowing that you intend to kill Xu, just to tell you that Xu is a vengeful ghost and can be killed without worry?"
Even if he is so bored that he is moldy, he can't do this!
Ling Qi's face turned pale and then blue after being scolded.
He gritted his teeth, but couldn't help but say, "Your Highness has misunderstood. We never intended to kill Xu!"
It’s just that Xu Chunxue was too vicious and caused Yanran to fall into a coma. He was just following the doctor’s instructions and preparing to give Yanran a bowl of blood to detoxify her!
He was just very dissatisfied with the fact that Xu Chunxue had become a scheming and vicious woman, and was very disappointed in her.
But he never thought of Xu Chunxue's death!
Never!
Lu Zhiheng rolled his eyes and cursed, "The prince is indeed different from ordinary people. He actually thinks that if you lock someone up and let them bleed a bowl of blood every day, they won't die."
"You are so talented and virtuous. Tomorrow, I will make a suggestion to my father and ask him to arrange for you to join the Ministry of Justice. In my opinion, you deserve to be the Minister of Justice!"
Being just a prince of the Duke of Xingguo is really a waste of talent.
Ling Qi: “…” Duke Xingguo: “…”
What a dirty curse!
Lady Xingguo: "..."
The wife of the Duke of Xingguo couldn't help but laugh out loud with some sarcasm.
"Yes, a bowl of blood a day. Those who know, it means that Haruyuki is your wife. Those who don't know, think Haruyuki is a sow waiting to be slaughtered, being abused by you so badly."
The Duke's Mansion has more than one way of mistreating people.
Their relatives in the Duke's Mansion followed suit and had many ways to mistreat others. People who didn't know thought that the mansion was magnificent and glamorous.
If you know, you will know how many dirty things are involved.
The tall courtyard that stretches as far as the eye can see is not made of stone bricks at all.
It's clearly made up of bones!
Lady Xingguo's eyes narrowed as she glanced at Ling Qi, "Qi'er, Chunxue is such a good child, yet you treat her so badly. If you really don't like her, just let her go. Why bother humiliating her like this?"
Although the wife of Duke Xingguo was just watching the fun, she did say something fair.
Ling Qi's face was pale and white, his eyes were as dark as ink. After being humiliated again and again in front of so many people, his tense expression seemed to be about to break suddenly at this moment.
He raised his eyes angrily, but not at Lu Zhiheng who was scolding him, nor at the sarcastic Lady of the Duke of Xingguo.
Instead, he was looking at Xu Chunxue, whose face was pale and thin, with only a bag of bones left.
"You're so good at pretending that you've caused so many people to protect you!"
"Xu Chunxue, I underestimated you!"
"I don't think you're a vengeful ghost at all, but a demon that eats people's souls!"
"Otherwise, you'll end up having so many people come to excuse you over and over again!"
Xu Chunxue should have felt sad when she saw his angry expression, but at this moment she only felt it was ironic and ridiculous.
She shook her head, stared at Ling Qi, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Ling Qi, are you really going to put the blame on me?"
"What good will it do you if I prove that I am a vengeful ghost?"
She laughed sarcastically, and in that instant all her dignity and prestige were torn to pieces.
She opened her mouth and actually tore off Ling Qi's disgusting fig leaf, "Stop saying these shameful things here and making people laugh!"
"You've clearly changed your heart, but you're unwilling to admit it. You're afraid that the world will accuse you of being heartless and ungrateful, so you spare no effort to throw dirty water on me, as if as long as you can prove that I'm a vicious woman who does all kinds of evil, you can run back to the arms of others without any scruples!"
Why bother?
It's disgusting.
Xu Chunxue covered her stomach and retched. Look, she was so nauseous that she wanted to vomit.
"Ling Qi, you are so audacious, you are so shameless, you are empathizing with someone else and throwing dirty water on me. It really makes me sick!"
"You said I was like Jiang Rou, two-faced, with a gentle smile on my face but a sinister and scheming heart. But how are you any different from that treacherous and vicious Ling Ran?"
She sneered rudely, "Back then, Ling Ran also kept saying Jiang Nian was a vicious woman. Jiang Rou and I were just sisters-in-law for a while, but you and Ling Ran are brothers. To be honest, you two are essentially the same thing!"
The moment Ling Qi cursed, his expression changed.
The veins on his forehead were throbbing, and his face suddenly turned ashen. He just wanted to strangle Xu Chunxue's neck and make this resentful ghost shut up.
How dare she say that he and Ling Ran are the same kind of people!
How dare she!
Duke Xingguo raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows. He really didn't know what went wrong in the Duke Xingguo's Mansion. Could it be that there was something wrong with the ancestral tomb? Otherwise, why were all the descendants in the family more bastards than each other!
The wife of the Duke of Xingguo had no reaction at all. She had heard people scolding her son so many times in recent times that she had long been accustomed to it.
Now, hearing that Ling Qi, the son most valued by Duke Xingguo, was accused by his first wife of being the same as her son, the wife of Duke Xingguo suddenly felt relieved for some reason, and even felt a little angry.
Ling Qi actually had this day.
It seems that she doesn't need to bother planning, as the people in the Duke of Xingguo's Mansion will soon be able to force themselves into a desperate situation and kill themselves.
Ling Qi's lips and teeth were trembling. Facing Xu Chunxue's curse, he was actually a little angry and embarrassed. He didn't know whether the other party had seen through his thoughts, or he still felt that he should not be wronged by this resentful ghost.
"You're not a vengeful ghost?!"
Ling Qi found it extremely ridiculous, as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world. He looked at Xu Chunxue with a mean and mocking expression, "If scheming, disgusting and vicious people like you aren't vengeful ghosts, then who are?!"
"You are exactly like Jiang Rou. If you are not a resentful ghost, could it be that Yanran, who was persecuted so deeply by you, is a resentful ghost?"
When Lu Zhiheng heard this, he raised his eyebrows, suddenly looked at him, curled up the corners of his lips, and even raised his hand to applaud him.
"It's really rare that Prince Ling, who only grew a head to look taller, can actually get his brain back one day."
The harsh tone in Lu Zhiheng's words was too strong. Ling Qi turned his head abruptly and glared at him fiercely, "Enough!"
"Your Highness, Prince Chen, don't be fooled by Xu Chunxue's appearance. If there's a vengeful ghost in my Duke Xingguo's Mansion, it's definitely this two-faced, vicious woman!"
"Yanran is gentle and kind, how could she be a vengeful ghost!"
"The real vengeful ghost is clearly Xu Chunxue!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Tan raised his hand expressionlessly and hit him on the mouth with a hard object.
Ling Qi suddenly felt pain and spat out a mouthful of blood. Su Tan said expressionlessly, "Prince Ling, please tell others about your stupid words and don't pollute my ears."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew through the Duke of Xingguo's Mansion.
