Chapter 65 "Miss, you are finally here."
When Marquis Anyang learned that Gu Junze had ordered the entire mansion to be sealed off because of the death of a servant, he was extremely dissatisfied.
He was just a servant, so he died. Which family doesn’t have a few servants who die?
The incident of the stepmother poisoning her stepson made the Anyang Marquis Mansion a laughing stock on the streets.
Now they are sealing off the mansions indiscriminately. If this gets out, what will others think?
Aren’t there enough crazy talk in the capital?
"You bastard! You're making such a fuss over a mere servant!"
Gu Junze sat in a wheelchair, looking at Anyang Hou with a determined look, "Father, Nanny is not an ordinary servant. She has taken care of Han'er since she was a child and is like a family member to her."
"Now that she died in such an unclear manner, how can we let this matter go so easily? I am seeking the truth and restoring peace to the Marquis's mansion."
Marquis Anyang narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a complicated look. His behavior was becoming more and more like "her".
"Forget it, forget it. Let's get to the bottom of this as soon as possible and don't cause any more trouble, otherwise I will hold you accountable!" After saying that, he turned away.
Chu Ruohan knew that the only people in this mansion who wanted to kill her were those few people.
She found out that Chu Nanxin went to Zizhuxuan two days ago and sat there for a long time before coming out.
Hasn’t Baoling always kept the door closed to visitors?
She absolutely did not believe that the death of the wet nurse had nothing to do with the two of them.
Even tigers take naps sometimes, and she was careless, allowing the two men to take advantage of her opportunity.
That night, dark clouds obscured the moonlight.
Chu Ruohan's face was stern, with a cold light flashing in her eyes. She asked Song Ruyan to tie up Chu Nanxin.
When Chu Nanxin saw her, he was terrified and struggled with his mouth making "Mmmm...", his eyes full of pleading.
But Song Ruyan ignored her and dragged her roughly along the cobblestone road.
Chu Ruohan glanced at Chu Nanxin coldly, her eyes were like ice knives, as if they could penetrate her soul, and then she walked straight towards Zizhuxuan.
It was quiet and dark inside Zizhuxuan. Chu Ruohan walked directly into the inner room where Baoling lived.
As soon as she stepped into the house, Song Ruyan keenly smelled a strange smell. The smell was a bit pungent, which made her frown.
The walls were covered with pepper paste, which already gave off a faint fragrance, so Song Ruyan couldn't smell anything strange.
She looked around and then threw Chu Nanxin to the ground. Chu Nanxin groaned as he fell, his eyes filled with tears and fear.
"No need to look. I sent the servants away. We are the only ones in Zizhuxuan."
In the darkness, Baoling sat on the bed, her body stiff and motionless, only her eyes flickered in the darkness, as if she had been waiting for them for a long time.
"Miss, you are finally here." Baoling's voice was surprisingly calm, without any emotion in it.
Chu Ruohan suppressed the anger in her heart and asked in a cold voice, "Why did you kill Nanny?"
Baoling was silent for a moment, then let out a sinister laugh, which sounded particularly terrifying in the darkness.
"She tricked me into taking the abortion pill and killed my child. Now it's just a life for a life." At this point, her voice suddenly became sharp and full of resentment. "My lady, my lady, I have been serving you since I was a child. Why do you want to harm me?"
This sentence sounded familiar. She had asked Baoling the same question in her previous life.
But how did she answer?
You were just born in the Chu family, so you are a superior lady. But I was unlucky and was born in the wrong family. I was sold and can only be a maid to serve others.
You are down and out now, do you still want me to suffer with you?
Now I am the master of the Anyang Marquis Mansion, and you are just a bitch who brings down her husband.
Chu Ruohan didn't blame her for trying to find a good future for herself, but she should never have done such a cruel thing to them just to please Gu's mother.
She killed the wet nurse and sent Yuling to a brothel, where she was whipped and beaten mercilessly...
Even if she just watched coldly from the sidelines, Chu Ruohan would not hate her so much.
Now I am just paying off the debt of my previous life.
In this life, she was reborn and planned carefully, taking every step as if walking on thin ice, trying her best to change her fate and protect the people around her.
If she didn't scheme and stay ahead of others every step of the way, Baoling would still betray her at any time.
But the wet nurse still died.
While her thoughts were racing, Chu Ruohan suddenly felt a sliding sensation on her toes, and her body tensed up instantly.
I know exactly what this feels like, it's a snake!
Her scalp went numb and she stood there motionless.
Bao Ling looked at Chu Ruohan's nervous expression, smiled triumphantly, and then lit the fire starter in her hand.
As the faint firelight flickered, the scene in the entire room gradually became clearer, and everyone couldn't help but gasp.
The room was filled with snakes. The ground, screens, vases, tables and chairs were all covered with twisted snakes.
"Mmmmm..." Chu Nanxin widened her eyes, her eyes filled with fear and despair. She struggled desperately, trying to break free from the ropes on her body and stay away from these terrible poisonous snakes.
Seeing this, Song Ruyan immediately scolded, "Don't move! These snakes won't attack people on their own initiative. The more you move, the more they will see you as a threat!"
Chu Nanxin was so frightened that her face turned pale and tears welled up in her eyes, but she still suppressed her fear and dared not move.
She doesn't want to die.
However, at this moment, a snake slowly crawled up Chu Nanxin's leg, and Chu Nanxin felt its cold and slippery touch.
His body was shaking violently, urine was flowing out uncontrollably, and a pungent smell filled the air.
Chu Ruohan looked at Chu Nanxin's miserable appearance without a trace of pity in her heart.
"Chu Ruohan, you might as well taste the despair of being bitten by a poisonous snake before dying! Hahaha..." Bao Ling yelled hysterically as if she was crazy.
The rotten face looked particularly hideous and terrifying in the dim light.
"No, it's tung oil!" Song Ruyan sniffed hard, and there was a strange smell that was faint and pungent.
Only then did I realize what that strange smell I just smelled was.
Baoling was well prepared. Her face was disfigured and she had lost the favor of Marquis Anyang. She couldn't defeat Chu Ruohan, so she decided to die together with her!
It's a pity that Yuling didn't come with us...
Baoling used a tinder to light the bed curtains.
With a "whoosh", the fire suddenly shot up high, and the flames greedily licked everything around it. However, in the blink of an eye, the fire spread rapidly.
The orange-red flames illuminated the house, and thick smoke rose up.
The snakes in every corner of the house were affected by the sudden fire and twisted their bodies madly in the flames. Some were burned by the flames and made painful hissing sounds.
The pungent smell of burning, the smell of burning tung oil and the stench of poisonous snakes mixed together and filled the burning room.
Baoling stood in the sea of fire, her eyes empty yet revealing a sense of relief and joy...
