No one knows why they suddenly regained consciousness; they had been dead for many years and never thought they would come back to life.
“Me too, I only regained consciousness today. I just don’t know why, but I couldn’t control myself and killed that servant just now. Although that person was also one of the culprits who caused my death, this is the first time I’ve ever killed someone.” Changsheng said, looking down at his trembling hands.
But since you've become a ghost, how scared can you be?
Lu Qingyan didn't know what to say to comfort her.
A rooster crowed in the distance, and Lu Qingyan and Changsheng tacitly found a place to hide. If they were exposed to the sun in broad daylight, they wouldn't recover in a short time.
A maidservant who was serving Meng was on her way to deliver food when she happened to see the servant lying dead on the ground. She screamed in fright and hurriedly went to call for help.
Meng has been out of the public eye for many years. She still looks young and beautiful, but her heart has long since grown old.
She had taken many lives in her youth, so when she heard from the maid that a servant had died, she just waved her hand dismissively: "It's just a servant gone. Just deal with him properly. There's no need to bring it up in front of me."
“But the servant’s death was so unusual,” the maid said, kneeling at Lu Qingyan’s feet, her voice trembling. “His skin had turned completely blue, and he was bleeding from all seven orifices. It was terrifying.”
"Look at you, so pathetic. You dare to say you came from my courtyard?" Meng kicked her twice impatiently. "I'm ashamed to even say it myself. You've been by my side for a long time, you've seen all kinds of things."
"Master, Master, this servant is so scared." The maid was like she had lost her mind, clinging to Madam Meng, afraid that she would abandon her and leave her aside.
Her persistence only made Meng Shi dislike him even more.
She kicked the person kneeling at her feet: "I haven't been involved in anything for so many years. Even if you beg me again, I won't do it. Isn't the master quite capable? You can let him investigate this matter, so he won't keep nagging about that Yue Niang all day long."
Mentioning Yue Niang made Meng Shi grit her teeth in hatred.
She really didn't know what was so good about that bitch that her philandering cousin had been talking about her for so many years, and that he had even become more chaste for her sake. It wasn't that he didn't want to be with any women, but he had become much more restrained than before.
She was happy to see her cousin change, but she was unhappy that she wasn't the one who made him change. She was very upset about this and kept brooding over it for nearly twenty years.
Even though he had plotted against her in every way, in the end his cousin still didn't trust him and only trusted that other person. Even though he had taken the opportunity to kill her and frame her, she was still able to be buried peacefully, leaving his cousin with a lasting memory for many years.
Yue Niang was a taboo subject in the household, but many people still knew of her existence. Upon hearing her mistress mention Yue Niang, the maidservant turned deathly pale: "Mistress, this servant, this servant would absolutely not dare to tell the master. He has never been willing to get involved in these matters."
"Hmph, what's there to be unhappy about? I think you all look down on me because I've lost power and want to take advantage of this opportunity to climb the social ladder. Don't think that just because I can't do anything to you now, you can keep jumping around like this."
