Xie Lin estimated the time and felt that it was almost time, so she came to Mrs. Xiao.
"Mom, a servant just came to report that they saw Mrs. Yong'an Hou and a man sneaking into Liu Yunfei's yard. If Mrs. Yong'an Hou had a private meeting with someone in the county governor's house, I'm afraid the prince will blame our county. Guard the mansion. Let’s stop them as soon as possible before they do anything wrong.” Xie Lin deliberately raised her voice so that the ladies present could hear them.
"Mrs. Yong'an Hou is having a private meeting with someone. Is it true or false?"
"Mrs. Marquis Yong'an is too bold to have a private meeting with someone on such an occasion."
"Yes, Marquis Yong'an is still next door."
"If you really do something sloppy, not only will the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion be embarrassed, but the County Sheriff's Mansion will also be embarrassed."
"I heard that Liu Yunqing had seduced Mr. Xiao before, but failed to seduce Mr. Yong'an again."
"You said you had a private meeting with her, could it be Mr. Xiao?"
"If it's really Young Master Xiao, it would be really exciting."
After hearing Xie Lin's words, all the ladies started talking. Hearing everyone's discussion, Xie Lin couldn't hide the smile on her face, while Mrs. Xiao's face was ashen. Mrs. Xiao asked her maid to notify Xiao Cheng, then got up and walked towards Liu Yunqing's yard.
When she came to Liu Yunfei's yard and saw the unconscious people on the ground, Xie Lin was shocked. This seems to be different from what they agreed before. Xie Lin ordered her maid to go and check, but she didn't see Liu Yunfei. At this time, an indescribable voice came from the room, and the ladies had different expressions for a moment. Some people are shy, some are gloating, and some are waiting for a good show. Xie Lin was overjoyed when she heard the sound. It seemed to be a success.
"Mom, it seems we are late. What should we do now? Should we order someone to go in and pull them out?" Xie Lin asked, looking at Mrs. Xiao.
"Let's wait until the master and the marquis arrive before making plans." Mrs. Xiao closed her eyes. This time the magistrate's mansion was in great disgrace. If something like this happened, others still didn't know what they would think about their county governor's mansion. Now she only wants the man inside, not Xiao Ming, otherwise, she doesn't dare to think about the consequences.
After receiving the message from Mrs. Xiao, Xiao Cheng quickly conveyed it to Xia Jingyao, and then the two of them hurried over. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Lian'er suddenly ran out from the side and stopped Xia Jingyao. Seeing Lian'er, Xia Jingyao felt a lot more at ease. He believed in Liu Yunqing, but was worried that Liu Yunqing would be plotted against.
"Where is your young lady?" Xia Jingyao asked quickly when he saw Lian'er.
"The young lady fell into the water and her clothes are all wet. It is not convenient to come out to see people. Haitang is accompanying the young lady. The young lady asked Lian'er to wait for the Marquis here and say something to the Marquis. Lian'er, go back to the house to get the young lady's clothes. ." After Lian'er finished speaking, she bowed to Xia Jingyao and was about to leave.
"You are wasting time by coming and going. He Wu, go to the carriage and get my cloak. Lian'er, you wait here. When He Wu brings the cloak, you can take your young lady with you. Come here." Xia Jingyao now wants to see who wants to harm Liu Yunqing.
Hearing the conversation between Xia Jingyao and Lian'er, Xiao Cheng suddenly had a bad feeling. He could tell from the message that someone wanted to target Liu Yunqing. Now that Liu Yunqing has escaped, who was tricked?
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Xia Jingyao heard sounds coming from the room. Xiao Cheng clenched his fists. He was so embarrassed that something like this happened. This time the Sheriff's Mansion will be completely disgraced. No matter who is in the room, the Sheriff's Mansion will become a joke.
"Master Marquis, don't be angry, Madam must be just obsessed for a moment..." Seeing Xia Jingyao and Xiao Cheng come in, Xie Lin hurriedly stepped forward and said. Finally able to find Liu Yunqing in the room, Xie Lin was a little overwhelmed with pride. But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Xia Jingyao.
"Why should I be angry? The lady inside is not my wife. Sheriff Xiao, since everyone is so curious, please send someone to bring the person out." Xia Jingyao interrupted Xie Lin, Said to Xiao Cheng.
"Come here, go and bring the dog man and woman out of the room." The anger in Xiao Cheng's eyes was about to burst out.
Several servants came to the room. Neither of the two people in the room noticed that anyone came in, and they were still doing their own things. A servant brought a bucket of water and poured it on the two of them. The two of them suddenly came to their senses. A shrill scream of a woman came from the room immediately. The servant threw clothes to the two of them, and after they covered their shame, he took them to the courtyard. The two were led to kneel on the ground, trembling all over.
"Lift their heads up." Xiao Cheng ordered as he saw that the two of them kept touching their heads.
"Why is it you? Where is Liu Yunqing?" Xie Lin screamed when she saw the woman's face. Although she quickly covered her mouth, everyone still looked at her. Everyone is smart, so they naturally know what her words mean.
"Who is looking for this young lady?" Liu Yunqing walked in from outside. When he saw Liu Yunfei kneeling on the ground, his eyes were full of doubts.
"Liu Yunqing, you hurt me, you hurt me." When she saw Liu Yunqing, Liu Yunfei immediately screamed and wanted to get up and pounce on Liu Yunqing. The servant behind him quickly held her down.
"Chief Xiao, since it is your family matter, I will leave first." Xia Jingyao looked at Xiao Cheng and said.
"Xiaoguan's lax discipline has made the Marquis laugh. I have to deal with family matters, so I won't send the Marquis away. Please forgive me." Xiao Cheng's face was livid at this time, and he wanted to pinch the man and woman kneeling on the ground with his own hands. die.
"Please, Commander Xiao." After Xia Jingyao finished speaking, he took Liu Yunqing's hand and left. Seeing Xia Jingyao leaving, the other ladies also left quickly.
After all the outsiders left, Xiao Cheng pulled out the knife of the guard behind him and stabbed the kneeling man in the chest. The man twitched a few times and then died. Liu Yunfei next to him screamed and fainted. The servant stepped forward and poured a bucket of water on Liu Yunfei to wake her up.
"You are so bold and extremely stupid. You have completely disgraced the county governor's office. If I hadn't seen that you were still useful, I would have beaten you all to death with sticks today. From today on, Mrs. Liu will not be allowed to step out. No one is allowed to visit within half a step of the door, and the food and clothing are provided as standard for people below. Xie is grounded for one month and fined half a year's worth of silver." After Xiao Cheng finished speaking about the punishment for Liu Yunqing and Xie Lin, he turned and left.
Liu Yunfei sat on the ground numbly, her heart ashen. According to her plan, she would kill two birds with one stone and get rid of Liu Yunqing and Xie Lin. Unexpectedly, in the end, the only one who suffered the greatest harm was himself.
Liu Yunqing sat on the carriage returning home with mixed feelings in her heart. She didn't expect that Liu Yunfei really wanted her to die, or to die after being ruined. Although the two of them had never dealt with each other since childhood, they were still sisters who grew up under the same roof. She really couldn't understand why Liu Yunfei hated her so deeply. Is it because he married Xiao Ming for her? However, strictly speaking, this incident was not Liu Yunqing's fault. It was Liu Wanshan's desire to cling to the county governor's mansion that caused the current tragedy.
Liu Yunqing could imagine that Liu Yunfei's life would never be easy in the future. A woman losing her virginity is a big deal, and even ordinary people will take it seriously, let alone a county magistrate's house with strict rules.
At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from outside. Xia Jingyao, with quick eyes and quick hands, protected Liu Yunqing under him.
