Chapter 44: Vicious Murder
Lord Shen.
Is there any other Lord Shen in the world?
Lu Qiaoxiao took a deep breath, and the figure in white clothes flashed through his mind again.
The countless encounters they had in their previous life also caused her to have many regrets.
In this life, she personally saved her family.
To snatch them back from the hands of death.
"Grandma, Grandpa, is it okay?" She looked expectant and pleading.
After all, this is a good opportunity to verify previous events.
"Okay." Qiao Dongjun touched her furry head lovingly.
After spending these few days together, Mrs. Qiao has come to trust her granddaughter's judgment.
Whether it was external arrangements or matters within the family, once handled by her, everything was extremely appropriate and impeccable.
Mu Qi nodded, and a smile appeared on his usually stern face: "Then do as Qiao Qiao said."
When Lu Yong learned that the two elders of the Qiao family agreed, he was so happy that he almost jumped onto the roof.
Qiao Lin stood aside, looking a little uncomfortable. She twisted her sleeves and wondered what she was thinking about.
Wang Xiuwan was also proud. Since Lu Yong had gained the benefit, he would naturally not treat her unfairly.
After dinner, several people got on the sedan chair and said goodbye to the two elders and several aunts of the Qiao family.
Qiao Shan looked at the departing carriage and frowned. "Mom, did you just hear Qiao'er say that if my brother-in-law sends people to mine later, we should be more cautious."
Qiao Dongjun nodded gently and said, "Since Qiao'er said so, I think there is nothing wrong with it."
——
Along the way, the four of them rode in a sedan chair, which was a bit cramped.
Wang Xiuwan would wipe Lu Yong's sweat with a handkerchief from time to time. Under normal circumstances, Qiao Lin would have complained and expressed dissatisfaction first, but today she just quietly turned her head to look out the window.
Lu Yong offered, "I heard there's a place nearby that sells delicious fish in Jiangshui. It's the perfect way to cool down and quench your thirst in the summer."
Qiao Lin curled her lips: "Didn't I feed you enough at Qiao's just now? Why do you want to eat again now?"
Before Wang Xiuwan could hold Lu Yong in her arms and speak, Lu Qiaoxiao had already spoken, smiling sweetly at Qiao Lin: "Mother, I want to eat too. Let's get off the carriage and take a walk. It's very hot and stuffy in this carriage."
Wang Xiuwan gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly: This damn girl is really good at pretending in front of her father.
When getting off the car, Lu Qiaoxiao squeezed Qiao Lin's palm and exchanged glances with her quickly.
Without a trace.
Several people got off the car and sat in the teahouse. Lu Qiaoxiao glanced at the owner who was catching fish in broth.
Old acquaintance.
That was Wang Xiuwan's younger brother, Wang Qiu Sheng, who was living away from home. He used to be a butcher and used his knife skills on people.
He has many lives on his hands. In his previous life, Lu Qiaoxiao was framed for an affair between a guard and the mistress, and he was also involved.
When people just want to have fun, they don't care whether they have any chance to survive.
When several bowls of clear fish in juicy water were presented in front of her, Lu Qiaoxiao bit the pill hidden behind her tongue. She glanced at Qiao Lin and saw that her cheeks moved slightly.
Just now in the carriage, she, the mother who had never lied in her life, was so nervous that sweat kept dripping down her forehead.
The medicine took effect very quickly. Lu Qiaoxiao didn't expect that although her mother had never lied, she was still a good actor.
With a bang, Qiao Lin's head hit the table heavily, her eyes closed, and she didn't move again.
Lu Qiaoxiao rubbed his eyes and said, "Dad, do you feel dizzy?"
Wang Xiuwan could no longer hide the sneer on her lips. This Lu Qiaoxiao, who took the initiative to let the Prime Minister's guards guard the carriage instead of letting them come over to watch, was in itself a negligence.
Little girl, you're going to fall into her hands.
Lu Yong looked at the mother and daughter who had both fallen on the table, his expression becoming extremely serious. "Wan'er, if you're so drunk, you can make your wife unable to get out of bed for months and transfer all the family shops and land to me. Why would you let your butcher brother come here?"
He knew that Wang Xiuwan's brother was a ruthless killer. Why would he go to so much trouble to deal with just two little girls?
Wang Xiuwan's eyes flashed with a malicious light: "Master, of course we have to get rid of him as soon as possible."
Lu Yong was horrified. "How can this be possible? One of them is my wife, and the other is my daughter. If the Qiao family is gone, how can I explain this to Madam Qiao and the others?"
Only Lu Qiaoxiao noticed something. The person next to her shook her face as the shoulder of the person next to her trembled slightly, causing the table to shake.
Wang Xiuwan smiled like a snake, her eyes full of resentment and hysteria: "Master, you know it yourself. Without your wife, you only need to explain to the Qiao family. But the one you like has always been me."
Lu Yong held a heavy breath in his chest. He didn't like Qiao Lin, and thought she was sometimes stupid and stubborn.
But he never wanted her to die.
Because Wang Qiu Sheng was watching him closely, Lu Yong never dared to say such words.
"What about Prime Minister Shen? How do I explain this to the Prime Minister?" Lu Yong rubbed his brows. He really didn't expect that Wang Xiuwan, who was always docile, would be so hysterical under her face.
Wang Xiuwan squeezed Lu Yong's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, my lord, just hand Qiao Xiao over to me. I'll just lock her up for a few days and then release her. I'll say that Madam Qiao fell ill on the way and Qiao Xiao is taking care of her personally."
"No one will doubt this."
Lu Yong finally felt relieved. He looked at Wang Qiu Sheng with some fear and said nothing more.
Wang Xiuwan felt a surge of satisfaction in her throat, and her eyes revealed a vicious look.
Yes, I will definitely bring back a complete and intact Lu Qiaoxiao.
But - whether she can still be innocent, that cannot be guaranteed.
She asked Qiu Sheng to find a group of bandits who had committed murder, saying that she had a girl and wanted them to help take care of her for a few days.
Those desperadoes are real jackals, tigers and leopards.
Not to mention a spoiled young lady like Lu Qiaoxiao, even if they were given a middle-aged woman, they would definitely do everything they could to get her.
Lu Qiaoxiao, you are a fallen woman, do you still dream that Shen Yuheng will marry you?
I'm afraid that by the time she, Lu Qiaoxiao, walks on the street, even stray dogs will dislike her.
Then Qiaolin would be in so much pain that she would rather die.
Wang Xiuwan's eyes fixed, and she gently swept across the face that was so well-maintained that its skin was as white as cream.
Qiao Lin had a good background, good parents, and even a good son who could pass the imperial examination and become an official with his own ability.
But didn't she lose to herself?
Lu Qiaoxiao could conclude that the poison Wang Xiuwan had given Qiao Lin in her previous life was the same kind that she had just put in the food.
It accelerates the aging of the internal organs, and eventually the person becomes bedridden and unconscious.
Under Wang Xiuwan's command, Lu Qiaoxiao and Qiao Lin were locked up in two separate rooms.
The room where Qiao Lin was was an empty room, while the room where Lu Qiaoxiao was was full of people.
Lu Yong went to the carriage and talked to Qingyu Wei for a few words, saying that their whole family would rest here for two days before setting off.
Qingyuwei didn't ask any further questions.
Miss Lu deliberately wanted to avoid them, saying that she had some things to deal with herself.
Before they left, the Master also specifically instructed them to protect Miss Lu.
We must also help her succeed.
.
Inside the hut:
"The young lady from the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is simply beautiful. How is she any different from a fairy?"
"Dear fairy, hahahahahaha, even if the Queen Mother comes now, she has to come down to earth here!"
The smell of alcohol made Lu Qiaoxiao frown.
