Chapter 25: One Second in Heaven, One Second in Hell
Before Yingyi could speak, Yingliu asked in disbelief, "How did the young lady find out that I was waiting?"
They asked themselves if they were good at hiding.
To complete the training out of the Dark Guard Camp, the students had to randomly follow a eunuch and remain unnoticed for half a month before they were considered to have passed.
It may seem simple, but the palace eunuchs also live with their heads on the line. Although he has no martial arts skills, his perception is not weak.
Qin Yinyao glanced at Hua Niang who was not doing her job properly beside her.
At first she really didn't notice it, after all, she was now a mortal.
But later he absorbed too much medicinal power, and his spirit was released. He could see clearly not only people but even a few ants on the ground.
"If you're new, just practice more." Hua Niang smiled and leaned over, her nose almost touching Ying Liu's face: "Brother, you have such a strong yang energy."
Ying Liu hadn't seen the sun for years, and his overly fair face flushed red: "Girl...Girl, please respect yourself."
"Why call me aunt? My name is Hua Niang." Hua Niang leaned towards Ying Liu.
At first glance, it seems like he is nestled in Yingliu's arms, but in fact, there is still some space between the man and the ghost.
Nanny Xia frowned slightly, not understanding Hua Niang's way of doing things.
"Hua Niang." Qin Yinyao smiled gently, her eyes dangerous: "But your bones are itchy, do you want the master to help you tighten the skin?"
"Is it useless to make a fuss about him? The master is really protecting his own people." Hua Niang pouted and hid in the corridor as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"Madam, don't worry about her." Qin Yinyao looked at Madam Xia: "If she makes a mistake, come and tell me, and I will take care of her."
Nanny Xia nodded and said, "My humble name is Xia Jinyi."
"Well, I just saw Madam Xia acting properly in the front hall. From now on, let Madam Xia take charge of the affairs in the courtyard." Qin Yinyao said with delegation.
"Dong Ning grew up with me. She's not as well-behaved as the people from the palace, so she needs some care from Madam. But she's still young, so there's no need to be too harsh on her."
After all, she was my original body's maid, and we grew up together through hardships. I will definitely find a good marriage for her in the future.
In terms of rules, there can't be too much difference.
Dong Ning, who had hurriedly given instructions to Su Niang and rushed back to serve, happened to hear this and his eyes instantly turned red.
Hiding behind the pillar, wiping tears with her sleeves.
Hua Niang saw it out of the corner of her eye and curled her lips.
Promising.
Nanny Xia understood the meaning of the words and also realized the importance of Dong Ning.
He quickly agreed: "Miss Dongning is young, but she looks smart and capable. She must be a smart child who can learn etiquette quickly."
He added, "The yard is not big, and there is no rush to assign tasks."
As she spoke, she turned and looked at Nanny Qian who was standing at the end.
Before she could even open her mouth, Nanny Qian fell to her knees.
He kowtowed tremblingly and said, "Thank you, Miss, for saving my life."
Qin Yinyao accepted the gift impartially.
When she first came to the mortal world, she played chess with the Marquis's wife. If she hadn't spoken up, the Marquis's wife would have taken Madam Qian's life to atone for her crime.
She accepted this gift with a clear conscience.
only……
"Don't thank me yet." She said, "Your life is not safe yet."
Nanny Qian's eyes were dim.
yes.
She had to work day and night to collect the morning dew from the lotus leaves.
How could she not know what the plan was?
Isn't it just to make her fall into the water and drown in a trance?
And then there is the diet that is filled with chronic poisons.
Double insurance, she is indeed a good lady raised by her milk.
"I'm giving you two choices now. One is to return to your master. You might die inexplicably at any time."
"One is to do..."
Qin Yinyao thought for a while and said, "It seems like they're asking me to be a tainted witness. Write down everything you know about the unclean things in the Marquis' Mansion and sign it."
"After that, I'll send you away and live in hiding."
"As the Marquis's wife's confidant, you've been running the Marquis's mansion for many years, so you must have accumulated quite a bit of wealth. Even if you lose your income in the future, it will be enough for you to live a life of ease and comfort."
Hearing this, Nanny Qian felt complicated.
Going back means death.
But...but if she really revealed those dirty deeds, would the Marquis and his wife let her go? Besides, she was a child brought over by the Liu family.
Although Liu's parents are dead, her brothers and sisters are still alive, and her own children are still working at the Marquis's manor!
"My lady is kindhearted, but I am only a servant. Even if I am trusted and relied upon, I will never let a servant know anything."
She gritted her teeth and tried to find a third way.
Nanny Xia snorted coldly, "If I don't say anything once I enter the eldest lady's courtyard, will the Marquis' wife believe me?"
This casual remark hit Aunt Qian like a heavy hammer in the heart.
They are all fox spirits, how could they not know that only dead people who cannot speak are the safest?
The lady had already sentenced her to death.
If she goes back now, even if the Madam believes that she didn't say it today, to ensure that she won't say it in the future, it will only speed up the plan to get rid of her.
"Old slave...I still have children..." Madam Qian struggled.
Nanny Xia: "You made a mistake and were driven out of the mansion by the eldest lady. Your children can't stay in the mansion to serve."
Without any worries, Madam Qian immediately said, "I will choose the second path!"
At a glance from Nanny Xia, Chunqi immediately stepped forward and took the person away.
She had just arrived and was not familiar with the layout of the house, so she just randomly chose a woodshed and found a wooden board to write on.
Now that there were no outsiders around, Nanny Xia took out a palm-sized white jade bottle from her sleeve.
He held it in front of Qin Yinyao with both hands and said, "Miss, this is the soul of Madam Cen. Si Tianjian said that the inquiry has been completed. I thought you would want to see your mother for the last time."
A flawless white jade, carved into a bottle, although only the size of a palm, is priceless.
There is also a formation carefully carved on it.
"The gadget is nice, but the formation is a bit too crude."
Qin Yinyao took it in her hand and looked at it: "Fortunately, the jade is good. This jade alone can warm the soul."
"Miss, this bottle is a magic weapon and must be returned to Si Tianjian." Nanny Xia saw what she was thinking and reminded her with a smile.
return?
Qin Yinyao raised her eyebrows and asked Hua Niang to bring the gift sent by Senior Brother Si Tianjian.
He took out a communication talisman from inside and activated the talisman paper:.
He took a deep breath and exclaimed in exaggeration, "What?! The dean gave me this magical instrument that holds souls as a gift? That's so embarrassing! I won't be polite! Thank you, dean!"
Everyone: “…”
Inside the Sitianjian, Qin Yinyao's voice exploded in Li Cheng's ears.
The dean, whose spiritual consciousness was always shrouded in the Sitianjian, naturally heard it as well.
Dean: “…”
Li Ming, who was standing next to the dean, twitched his lips. Junior sister, really is so brave to ask for it.
"Dean, Junior Sister..."
Li Ming spoke cautiously, wanting to plead for Qin Yinyao.
The dean waved his hand and said, "Forget it. If she wants it, just give it to her. As for the magic weapon, just make a new one."
Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
The next second, Dean Heshan smiled and said, "As for the cost of the magic weapon, I will deduct it from you guys."
Li Ming: “???”
Even if we sold all of them, we still wouldn't be able to cover the cost of that magic weapon.
One second in heaven, one second in hell.
Li Ming cried: "No..."
Before he could utter the word "want", the person had already been teleported away by the dean.
