Chapter 258 Qiu Shi Seeks Death

Lu Mingchao felt as if something had stabbed his chest, with an unknown emotion stuck in his throat.

She vaguely guessed the reason why Qiushi refused. Not only did he want to leave the chance of survival to Chunhua, but he also didn't want to bring trouble and turmoil to her.

Thinking of Qiushi's numb and resolute eyes, Lu Mingchao felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

What does Qiushi want to do?

Lu Mingchao pursed his lips, rubbed his fingertips, and said in a deep voice, "Qingtang, let Qiushi take it as easy as possible in the next few days."

"At least, don't let her be in so much pain that she can't sleep all night."

Qingtang nodded in agreement.

Lu Mingchao hesitated for a moment and then said, "Whatever she wants to do, help her."

If Qiushi wanted to make the things that happened in Lanxiyuan known to the public at the cost of his own death, then he should not let Qiushi's death sink silently into the sea like pebbles and gravel. Death is worthless.

Chunhua, who was staggering, understood the implication of Lu Mingchao's words and trembled, "Miss, Qiushi, Qiushi is determined to die?"

No wonder Qiushi told her loudly not to leave the house.

Lu Mingchao remained silent.

Silence is worth a thousand words; silence is better than sound.

After a long while, Lu Mingchao let out a long sigh, his voice floating like the rustling of bamboo in the night wind. "Chunhua, living in pain and despair is a kind of pain."

Enduring severe pain day and night, knowing that death is imminent, is a double torture for both the body and mind.

"Chunhua, I see that your face is also pale and bloodless, are you feeling unwell?"

"Let Qingtang take your pulse."

Chunhua stretched out her wrist, and her slightly trembling eyebrows revealed her shameless inferiority and uneasiness.

Qingtang followed his instructions, holding his breath and concentrating. The more he looked, the gloomier his expression became, and his eyes were filled with pity.

Chunhua smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Qingtang, you can talk as you please. I am mentally prepared."

Qingtang withdrew his hand and told the truth, "Madam, Miss Chunhua's bleeding can be cured."

"But your body is weak and cold, and you will not be able to have children or live as long as a normal person."

Lu Mingchao was stunned.

The disease of redness in the lower part?

Not menstruation?

Lu Mingchao raised his eyes and looked towards Chunhua.

Chunhua said in a calm voice, "The eldest lady knew that the Marquis's wife intended to choose me as the concubine of Prince Gu to secure her favor. She specially asked the groom in the front yard to prepare a strong drug for animals to destroy my body."

"But I didn't expect that after taking the drug, not only would I be unable to have children, I would also suffer from periodontitis."

"What's wrong with your leg?"

"Last winter, when the eldest girl got angry, she used to punish people by making them kneel on the broken porcelain in the yard for two hours at a time."

"There is no time to heal the wound. If the wound doesn't scab over, I will be punished to kneel outside again."

Chunhua's voice was light and floating, expressing her resignation and self-mockery.

Lu Mingchao's face turned completely cold.

She couldn't understand how Lu Minghui could be so heartbroken.

The Lu family of Changxi Village are kind and honest people. After more than ten years of teaching by example, Lu Minghui should not be so cruel and perverted.

Although the Yongning Marquis and his wife were not kind-hearted people, they did not have so many vicious ways to torture people.

Or is it that Lu Minghui has witnessed and experienced these tortures in her previous life, which is why she is so adept at using it?

will not.

If Lu Minghui's memory is completely opposite to the original novel she read, then it means that Lu Minghui married Xie Yan.

Even if Xie Yan disliked Lu Minghui, he would never use these methods to hate her.

Therefore, Lu Minghui took the dregs of the Yongning Marquis and his wife and removed their essence, and then surpassed them, rushing down the path of perversion and cruelty and never turning back.

"Chunhua, stay in the Cuiyuan with peace of mind."

"I am here, no one can torture you anymore."

Hearing this, Chunhua ignored Lu Mingchao's obstruction, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed solemnly.

"Thank you, young lady, for saving my life."

"I swear to serve you for the rest of my life. From now on, wherever you are, I will be there, without any second thoughts."

"Get up." Lu Mingchao soothed, "If you want to serve me for a long time, you have to take good care of your body first."

Chunhua kowtowed again and said, "I will."

The night deepened.

The huge Cuiyuan fell into silence.

Chunhua pinched the thick mattress beneath her body, and couldn't help rubbing the soft quilt with her cheek, her eyebrows and mouth corners curled up subconsciously.

As I laughed, tears fell silently.

Qiushi gave her the opportunity to leave Lanxiyuan.

Autumn fruits.

Qiushi only has three months to live.

Qiushi hated the eldest girl, and she hated him too.

She not only hated the older girl, but also hated Xia Chan who fanned the flames and added fuel to the fire.

She just watched as the eldest girl and Xia Chan went to hell.

Lanxiyuan.

Qiushi was kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair, her cheeks were red and swollen, with layers of fingerprints on them, and the corners of her mouth were cracked and bleeding.

The summer cicada was holding a wooden tray, on which were rows of silver needles as thin as cow hair, flashing with a chilling light.

Lu Minghui looked crazy, twisting away the silver needles one after another, and fiercely thrust them into Qiushi's body.

Qiushi howled in pain, it was so miserable.

Lu Minghui waved her hand and slapped Qiushi on the face again.

"Bitch!"

"Are you howling so loudly to let that flirtatious woman in the Cuiyuan Courtyard hear you and come to save you?"

"Forget about it."

"Xia Chan, shut her mouth."

"Noisy!"

Xia Chan hurriedly handed the tray in his hand to Dongxue, who looked reluctant, and glared at him as a warning.

You dare to show this expression in front of a grown girl. Are you thinking your life is too comfortable?

Dongxue shuddered suddenly and lowered her head so that only the embroidered shoes on her feet could be seen clearly.

Xia Chan trotted out a plain soft-soled shoe from the low cabinet, folded it in half, leaned over and grabbed Qiushi's messy hair, and stuffed the folded shoe into Qiushi's mouth without saying a word.

The sound of flesh tearing was so subtle, so subtle that no one heard it and no one cared.

The cracks at the corners of Qiushi's mouth widened wider and wider, and more and more blood flowed out.

Qiushi cried and frowned.

Are these so many wounds enough to show the torture she suffered?

"You dare to laugh!" Xia Chan raised his foot and kicked Qiu Shi.

Lu Minghui glanced at Xia Chan approvingly.

Xia Chan is the one she likes best.

Her plain looks won't take away from her limelight.

Sweet words will make her happy.

The method of tormenting people is clear at a glance.

The scarlet blood continued to stimulate Lu Minghui's nerves, and Lu Minghui felt that pricking Qiushi with a needle could no longer bring her pleasure.

"Qiu Shi, let me embroider on you."

"My mother always said that my needlework was mediocre and asked me to practice more."

"If I obey, my mother will be happy."

"If mother is happy, she won't give up on me."

"Xia Chan, strip me clean."

Xia Chan did not dare to delay for even a second and forcefully tore off Qiu Shi's clothes.

Qiushi did not resist and curled up on the ground, unaware of the pain.

Lu Minghui twisted the silver needle and paced back and forth around Qiushi, "Qiushi, what do you think this lady should embroider?"

"Slave?"

"You are still a slut from Lu Ming Dynasty, so lowly!"

On what basis!

Gu Huai never forgot Lu Mingchao, and Xie Yan also had a special affection for Lu Mingchao.

First confrontation
