Chapter 162 What are you waiting for?
At the same time, at the Yongyi Marquis Mansion.
After Qin Junyi returned from the Jiang family, he saw Xie Rongying leaving the house with a lot of people.
"What are you doing?" Qin Junyi looked at the dozen or so guards standing behind the carriage, his brows furrowed. "What happened?"
Xie Rongying, who was about to get on the carriage, looked at Qin Junyi approaching and frowned: "Yes, there are some things."
"What's going on?" Qin Junyi asked, looking at the guards again. "Is there trouble in your shop?"
"Young Marquis, yes, yes..." Cuizhi spoke cautiously, "Young Marquis has been busy with the Jiang family's affairs these days. You don't know what's going on in the mansion. Madam noticed that the young mistress has been leaving the mansion frequently these days and found it a little strange, so she asked someone to follow her."
"Yao'er has been out of the house these few days?" Qin Junyi's gaze moved from Cuizhi's face to Xie Rongying's face: "How come I don't know?"
"How could the young marquis possibly know that you were secretly meeting a man outside behind his back?" Xie Rongying stared at Qin Junyi with sarcasm in her eyes, as if to say, even a woman as precious as you, Qin Junyi, is nothing more than this.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Junyi's eyes were obviously cold: "How could Yao'er meet a man in private?"
"I saw it with my own eyes." Dongxue said from the side: "Today, I followed the young lady out and saw her go to a building in the east of the city. Not long after, a man went in."
When Qin Junyi heard this, all she could think of was that Shangguan Yao might have gone to meet someone from the Shangguan family, but was just discovered by Xie Rongying by chance, making Xie Rongying think that she was going to meet a man in private.
"I checked the building and there was no one there," Dongxue said again.
Xie Rongying seemed to see through Qin Junyi's thoughts and said, "Young Marquis, if you think my people are slandering Shangguan Yao, how about we go and find out what's going on?"
"What if Yao'er didn't have a secret meeting with a man?" Qin Junyi stared at Xie Rongying coldly: "Kneel down and apologize to her!"
Xie Rongying glanced at Qin Junyi, sneered, then turned around and got on the carriage.
Qin Junyi looked at Xie Rongying's disdain for him, anger surging in his chest, and he got into Xie Rongying's carriage with an angry face.
——
In the Youqing Tower.
Feng Qing walked towards Shangguan Yao step by step with a smile on her face.
She said: "What Wen Zi asked me to do was invalidated the moment Wen Zi died. As for the matter between me and the master of the Xie family, it seems to have nothing to do with Madam Qin."
Shangguan Yao didn't seem angry at all. She smiled and said, "Why, are you eyeing the position of Xie Jing's wife and want to become a phoenix?"
Perhaps it hit home her inner thoughts, Fengqing's face changed for only a moment.
In a moment, Feng Qing's face regained its composure: "Why, water flows to the lowest places, people go to the highest places, and I can't plan for myself?"
"You've been eyeing Xie Jing for a long time, haven't you?" Shangguan Yao chuckled. "Wen Zi's appearance just happened to give you a legitimate opportunity."
The smile on Fengqing's face slowly disappeared as Shangguan Yao spoke, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes as she stared at Shangguan Yao.
"After all, if anything happens to you, Wen Zi and I will be behind you." Shangguan Yao met Feng Qing's eyes, and there was even a hint of provocation in her eyes: "You can drag Wen Zi and me into this, but you will also find a chance to escape from this place of trouble."
"Now that Xie Jing has taken a fancy to you and Wen Zi is dead, you don't have to worry about your friendship with Wen Zi and can just focus on your work. You can even confuse Xie Jing and make him want to let you marry into the Xie family?"
Feng Qing's eyes became increasingly cold and stern. She stared deeply at Shangguan Yao: "What do you know?"
Shangguan Yao shut up and just stared at Fengqing with a meaningful look.
Feng Qing's voice became much sharper: "What else do you know?"
"I know there is someone behind you. That person wants to deal with the Xie family, and Xie Jing is the easiest person to target, so he used you as a beauty trap." Shangguan Yao said clearly.
Sure enough, after hearing Shangguan Yao's words, Feng Qing quickly walked down the stone steps and came to Shangguan Yao.
"What are you going to do!" Xue Qing stood in front of Shangguan Yao and said angrily.
Feng Qing also regained her composure: "Madam Qin came here today to ask me for something, just tell me directly."
"It seems I was right." Shangguan Yao pulled Xue Qing away and looked at Feng Qing with a half-smile: "I don't want you to do anything. Since you don't want to do anything for me, then just return the benefits Wen Zi gave you."
Feng Qing sneered: "Madam Qin knows so much about me, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to come back?"
Shangguan Yao looked at Feng Qing with murderous intent in her eyes, her expression changed slightly, and she took a few steps back: "What are you going to do?"
Feng Qing slowly approached Shangguan Yao: "Does Madam Qin know too much?"
"What are you going to do?" Xue Qing stood in front of Shangguan Yao and stared at Feng Qing fiercely: "If you dare to touch my wife, my young marquis will not let you go!"
"You and your servant came to see me without letting anyone know, right?" Feng Qing's smile grew increasingly strange. "After all, this isn't a place Madam Qin's status should be. I don't think anyone knows about it. If you're dead, you're dead. Even if Young Marquis Qin investigates, how can he trace it back to me?"
"Besides, Madam Qin also said that I have someone behind me. Since there is someone, they will definitely protect me."
Shangguan Yao's face turned pale, and she pulled Xueqing and said, "Let's go!"
"Let's go!?" Feng Qing snorted and laughed: "Ayan, take care of them."
In the blink of an eye, A Yan attacked Shangguan Yao and his servant with agility.
Xueqing was pulled by Shangguan Yao towards the Chuihua Gate, her face full of worry. Seeing A Yan chasing them with a dagger in his hand, and seeing the maids in the courtyard all gathering here, she walked faster.
After passing through the hanging flower gate and escaping through the winding corridor, he was about to reach the gate of Youqing Tower.
Ah Yan grabbed Xue Qing's shoulders, but Xue Qing let go of Shangguan Yao's hand and pushed Shangguan Yao forward with force: "Madam, please leave!"
Shangguan Yao turned around and wanted to grab Xueqing, but saw A Yan raised the dagger and stabbed towards Xueqing's neck.
"Someone, someone, someone!" Shangguan Yao walked to the gate, looked at the tightly closed door, and banged on it, "Someone, someone's murdered! Someone's murdered!"
At the moment when the dagger pierced her neck, Xueqing stared at Shangguan Yao and slammed the door, then slowly fell down.
Ah Yan stared at Shangguan Yao and ordered coldly: "Hold her down!"
The maids around quickly rushed towards Shangguan Yao, but Shangguan Yao quickly pulled out the bolt and opened the door at the critical moment with amazing force, and she ran out of Youqing Tower.
"Murder! Murder!" Shangguan Yao's expression changed slightly when she saw the carriage appearing on the other side of the street.
The maids from Youqing Tower came out one after another, grabbed Shangguan Yao and dragged her inside.
After Shangguan Yao was brought back into Youqing Tower, the door was closed again.
At this time, Feng Qing also appeared. She stared at the captured Shangguan Yao and said, "Why don't you do it? What are you waiting for?"
