That night, Nangong Yueqin's shrill screams echoed throughout the marquis's mansion.
Yang Yue'e listened to the sound in her bedroom, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
"No, Nangong Yueqin is too abnormal."
Yang Yue'e was so shocked that she sat up on the bed, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.
Although Nangong Yueqin was the one who led the death of Zhou Junzhi on Uncle Qi's birthday, she was also involved.
She was also involved in the poisoning of Yu Jinshu later, and gave Nangong Yueqin all kinds of conveniences.
Ever since Nangong Yueqin was locked up in the woodshed, Yang Yue'e had thought of many ways to kill Nangong Yueqin, but because there was someone guarding the woodshed, she failed.
Later, Nangong Yueqin went crazy, and Yang Yue'e no longer cared about it.
A madman probably can't say anything!
But why did Nangong Yueqin behave so abnormally when the Marquis brought Yu Jinshu back today?
Could it be that Nangong Yueqin is not crazy at all?
If you are not crazy, you must not let Nangong Yueqin see the Marquis, you must not.
Yang Yue'e got off the bed, found a dark-colored dress in the closet and put it on, then opened the door and went out. Without a lantern, she walked alone through the darkness of the Marquis' Mansion and arrived at the woodshed where Nangong Yueqin was.
At this moment, Nangong Yueqin stopped shouting and the woodshed was very quiet.
Yang Yue'e looked from afar and saw two guards guarding the door of the woodshed.
They were sitting in front of the door, all dozing off.
Yang Yue'e sneaked into the tool room, found a bucket of tung oil, and then quietly went to the woodshed.
The two guards at the door were snoring loudly in their sleep.
One of the guards was leaning against a pile of firewood.
Yang Yue'e poured tung oil onto the firewood, until the oil covered the soles of the guards' shoes. She used a flint to ignite the tung oil.
When the fire started, Yang Yue'e turned around and ran away with the empty oil barrel. She was so nervous that her legs were shaking and she fell down. When she got up and was about to run, she looked up and saw a steep wall of people in front of her. She was so scared that she couldn't help but scream.
The fire in the woodshed had already started, and the guard was rolling on the ground with flames all over his body.
Suddenly, two men came with several buckets of water and poured them on the guard. The fire was out in two splashes.
Then many more people came to put out the fire.
Yang Yue'e couldn't see the wall of people in front of her clearly. She got up and was about to leave, but she felt a few more people coming in front of her.
Two of them were holding lanterns.
She saw clearly that the steep wall of people was A Zuo, and the people coming behind him, the one in the middle was Qi Luoting, and next to him were several guards.
The lantern illuminated Yang Yue'e's pale face.
She was the mistress of a house, usually a pampered, dignified and generous person, but at this moment, she was holding an oil barrel in her hand, which fell to the ground, looking very embarrassed.
Qi Luoting looked at Yang Yue'e and said angrily, "Yang Yue'e, you actually dared to set fire to the Marquis' Mansion."
Yang Yue'e shook her head, wanting to explain but unable to.
She turned her head and saw that the fire in the woodshed had been put out. Obviously, there were more than two secret guards in the woodshed.
It seemed as if those people were all prepared, just waiting for her to make a move so that they could capture her.
Qi Luoting did not handle this matter privately. After all, Yang Yue'e's family background was very unusual. The Yang family was a prominent family with deep influence in the court, and her father was the Minister of Personnel.
Yang Yue'e and Nangong Yueqin were sent to the government office together.
When Yang Yue'e looked at Nangong Yueqin, who was not crazy at all, she knew that she was completely finished.
Qi Luoting also sent Yang Yue'e's three stepsons to the government office, and forced them to tell the truth under the intimidation of the government office.
The father of the three stepsons finally could not withstand the torture in the imperial prison and confessed that it was Yang Yue'e who asked them to send away all the midwives in the capital on the day Yu Jinshu gave birth.
In Xizi Hall, Xiangqiao asked doubtfully, "Miss, is Nangong Yueqin really crazy or just pretending to be crazy?"
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "Of course he's really crazy."
Xiangqiao was even more confused: "But why did she suddenly stop being crazy?"
Yu Jinshu made up a lie: "Maybe she loves the Marquis so much that she won't go crazy knowing that the Marquis is coming!"
Nangong Yueqin was indeed crazy and stupid.
After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Yu Jinshu found an opportunity to go to the woodshed and gave Nangong Yueqin a pill to restore her intelligence that she had bought for 100 points in the system mall.
Based on the evidence, Yang Yue'e and Nangong Yueqin were executed and sentenced to death in the autumn according to the law.
But a few days later, they both died of poisoning in prison.
News from the government office said that the Yang family sent someone to deliver poison to the prison to keep Yang Yue'e's body intact.
Yang Yue'e didn't dare to take the poison alone, so she gave the poison to Nangong Yueqin.
The Marquis's Mansion was finally quiet.
Yu Jinshu no longer had to worry about anyone harming her and her three children.
That day, the housekeeper of the mansion came to Qizitang to deliver the account books.
"Second Madam, there is something wrong with these account books."
Qi Luoting was teasing the child. Hearing what the housekeeper said, he glared at him and said, "From now on, there will only be one wife in the mansion."
The housekeeper was frightened and quickly changed his words: "Yes, Marquis, Madam."
Yu Jinshu didn't mind. She glanced at the account books and said, "List all the problems in these account books one by one. If they can be settled, settle them. If they can't be settled, find a way to settle them. If they involve people in the mansion, list them clearly too. No one with problems should be left behind."
There is a problem with the account book, and it was caused by Yang Yue'e. We can't go to the underworld to settle the score with Yang Yue'e!
The housekeeper agreed and left with the account book.
That night, after the children fell asleep, Qi Luoting and Yu Jinshu went to the bedroom to rest.
On the couch, Qi Luoting held Yu Jinshu in his arms and talked about something.
"Today I went to Uncle Qi's house and met Qi Youxuan. I heard that he is no longer able to have sex."
Yu Jinshu felt a little relieved after hearing the news.
