Suddenly, Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe and said softly.
Zihe followed Xie Lingqin's gaze and indeed, although the weather was gloomy, the two maids in the courtyard were standing there cracking melon seeds as if they were admiring flowers in spring.
How absurd is this?
This is the Liu family mansion, the Liu family mansion with the current Consort Shu, who is pregnant with the emperor's child, as its backing, and Lord Liu Yunzhou is also here. How dare this little concubine...
Xie Lingqin frowned. So, this is interesting.
More importantly, she recognized the man inside.
"Let's go in and take a look." After putting on their masks, Xie Lingqin and Zihe entered through the window in the next instant.
The two people inside were engrossed in their activities when they heard the commotion and immediately hid under their blankets.
"Who are you?"
Xie Lingqin didn't answer, but sat down with a smile in her eyes, and lightly tapped the table with her hand, making a soft, intermittent sound.
"Who are you, and what do you want?"
On the bed, the young man wiped the sweat from his face, came to his senses, and glared angrily at Xie Lingqin.
Xie Lingqin sneered, pointed to the naked woman on the bed, then to the man who had spoken, and spoke in a low male voice.
“Master Liu’s concubine is the eldest son of the Minister of Personnel.”
The woman was fine after Xie Lingqin identified her, since this was the Liu residence. The man, however, panicked because the man in black recognized him.
Indeed, this man is the eldest son of the Minister of Personnel. Previously, he had an ambiguous relationship with the widowed wife of Doctor Jiang, the appointed physician of the General's Mansion, and had an affair with Concubine Wan. He was the man who, out of deep affection and loyalty, caused her to become pregnant.
That is, General Xie's nephew and Xie Lingqin's cousin.
Xie Lingqin's gaze fell on the man. "Xie Lifeng, you're really something. You're not afraid of dying in bed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Lingqin pointed at him with her fingertip again, her voice turning cold, "I'll give you the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. Put your clothes on and get out of bed."
Xie Lifeng was intimidated by Xie Lingqin's imposing aura and immediately grabbed the clothes beside him and put them on. However, as soon as he jumped off the bed, he was slapped to the ground by Zihe, who suddenly flew over.
Xie Lifeng also knew kung fu, but his body had long been ruined by years of indulging in women. With so little strength, he tried to fight back, but Zihe knocked him down with another palm strike.
Then, Xie Lingqin walked over, picked up the water bottle, and poured it over Xie Lifeng's head.
Xie Lifeng was so angry and scared that he couldn't move. Xie Lingqin, however, didn't look at him. Instead, she looked at the concubine wrapped in a quilt on the bed. "Let's not beat around the bush. I don't have time to waste with you. Hand over your shares in the brothel, and I'll pretend I didn't see anything today."
"Oh!"
The concubine, around 27 or 28 years old, had been flustered earlier, but had calmed down after a while. Listening to Xie Lingqin's words, she smoothed her hair and gave a cold, coquettish laugh, "So, you've come to make your move on me again. Didn't the person who sent you tell you that I'm not someone who's easily swayed by either soft or hard tactics?"
"Yeah?"
Xie Lingqin looked at Xie Lifeng, who was subdued on the ground and looked disheveled from being drenched in water, and spoke to her concubine, "You dare to be so arrogant because others don't know that you're having an affair with the son of the Minister of Personnel. Tell me, what if I hang him out naked right now..."
"I'm not afraid. He's just a man. I can find another one."
"Oh."
A cold glint flashed in Xie Lingqin's eyes. This is getting more and more interesting.
Zihe, standing to the side, was almost dumbfounded. She wasn't Xie Lingqin; having lived two lives, she had seen all sorts of scumbags and scumbags. So, she felt that this woman was truly shameless.
The concubine clearly hadn't expected Xie Lingqin to laugh out loud upon hearing this, as if she were in an even better mood than before.
"Is that so, Mr. Xie? You see, you're just a backup option."
Xie Lingqin kicked Xie Lifeng with her foot, then raised an eyebrow at her concubine after making a sarcastic remark, "I'm curious, what makes you so confident that you can be more arrogant than anyone else when doing such a shameful thing?"
"Heh, kill me if you want, or get lost."
The concubine refused to compromise.
"Yeah?"
The next second, Xie Lingqin straightened up and was already standing by the bed, a dagger flashing in her hand, already in front of the concubine.
"It's not hard to die if you want to, but I also think that killing is too cruel."
Xie Lingqin spoke coldly, the tip of the dagger still pressed against the concubine's face, slowly sliding down, "Such tender skin, it would be such a pity to cut it like this."
"what you up to."
The concubine finally started to panic, but she kept her eyes fixed and refused to compromise.
For some people, appearance is more important than life itself. You can kill her, but you absolutely cannot ruin her appearance.
"It's nothing," Xie Lingqin changed the subject. "If you don't do as I say, at most you'll just get a disfigurement, then we'll put in some honey, attract some ants, and then..."
Seeing the panic finally surface in her concubine's eyes, Xie Lingqin's lips curled into a captivating smile, "Then, by accident, I'll cut an ear, lose a finger, and then feed it a thousand-year-old human spirit, until it dies."
These were clearly extremely cruel words, yet Xie Lingqin uttered them in a soft, gentle voice, sending chills down one's spine.
The concubine swallowed hard, her eyes trembling, and finally swallowed again. "Alright, I agree."
"Get paper and ink."
At Xie Lingqin's command, Zihe immediately fetched paper and ink from the side.
The concubine, almost holding her breath, wrote the transfer certificate from beginning to end.
Xie Lingqin then took a step back and waved her hand, "Thank you, please continue."
As he spoke, his foot delivered a vicious kick to a certain spot on Xie Lifeng's body.
The pain was so intense that Xie Lifeng was unable to even utter a sound.
Xie Lingqin glared at him, thinking, "What a scoundrel!"
After leaving the house, Xie Lingqin did not leave with Zihe, but instead headed towards Master Liu's main courtyard.
The Liu family is the wealthiest family in the capital, a prominent and powerful clan. Moreover, with Liu Yunzhou as the Imperial Censor and Consort Shu in the palace to support them, how could they allow a mere concubine to rise above them?
However, on the other hand, the former, having just taken office, must be very busy, while the latter, is aware that the child in Consort's womb is still in danger.
Presumably, she has little energy to take care of her family.
so……
Master Liu, something must have happened.
