Liang Yuanque wanted this effect. He was about to start pretending to be a ghost, but he didn't expect that the housekeeper would strike first.
"Oh, I understand. Xiaolian actually didn't commit suicide. She was killed by evil spirits. Didn't Mr. yesterday say that there was so much resentment in the inner courtyard?"
"Uh." Liang Yuanque's mouth was slightly open, and he cursed a long-lost curse word in his heart.
It's been a long time since he met an opponent who defeated him. Previously in Yuzhen, Zhuang Youjie thought that the third lady could be Liang Yuanque's opponent, but compared to the woman in front of him, the third lady was simply a fairy.
"Is that so, sir?" Seeing Liang Yuanque's silence, the housekeeper thought she had the upper hand, and she even dared to ask back proudly.
Liang Yuan Que thought, OK, you forced me to do this.
He took a deep breath and calmly asked the housekeeper, "Housekeeper, do you not believe in ghosts and gods?"
The housekeeper raised her eyebrows, wondering what he meant by that.
"Sir, you, you are..."
"You have a hard life. You have experienced many things in your life, but you are still strong and alive until now." Liang Yuanque continued to lie without changing his expression.
"But you have seen too many dead people in your life. You don't see ghosts, but ghosts like you who are tough-minded. There are many dark shadows lying behind you."
Liang Yuanque first started with her own situation to win her trust, and what he said next was even easier to convince her.
Sure enough, the housekeeper subconsciously looked back, but of course she couldn't see anything.
"Don't waste your efforts, you can't see them." Liang Yuanque smiled slightly, very satisfied with her reaction.
"But no matter how hard you work, you can't stop so many ghosts from absorbing the yang energy. If one more ghost attracts you, you will die."
Liang Yuanque's seriousness was scary. Not to mention the housekeeper herself, even the people next to her were startled when they heard this.
The housekeeper's face gradually turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly, "I, I, if I die, won't I also become a ghost..."
"No," Liang Yuanque waved his hand in a pretentious manner, "You died because the ghosts sucked all your yang energy away. Your fate has been shattered. Your soul will neither enter reincarnation nor stay in the world of the world. It will just fly away."
Liang Yuanque said, looking back again. Looking from the outside, he seemed to be looking at Xiaolian's body.
Suddenly, he shouted, "No, close the door!"
Huang Jingye, who was at the door like him, was puzzled, but he still stretched out his hand to do as he was told. Unexpectedly, Liang Yuanque turned his back and winked at him from an angle that no one else could see.
Immediately afterwards, Liang Yuanque looked nervously at the evacuation, as if he saw something flying out of the room.
So he shouted again, "Housekeeper, get out of here, Xiaolian's soul is heading towards you!"
The housekeeper was already frightened by what he just said, but when she suddenly heard him shouting like this, she had no time to react in her heart, so she acted in her most primitive way.
"Ah, go away, go away, don't come to me!"
The housekeeper screamed and sat down on the ground, her face full of horror.
The people around were afraid of being haunted and immediately dispersed. Their reactions made the housekeeper mistakenly think that everyone had seen Xiaolian's ghost, and she became even more frightened.
"Don't, don't come here!" She waved her hands and shouted into the void.
To others, this scene seemed like she had seen something.
As a result, the atmosphere of terror gradually spread around the small side room, and the people who had just followed the housekeeper to watch the fun all found reasons to leave.
A few clever servants felt that something was wrong and decided to invite Mr. Song to come over.
Liang Yuanque looked at the panicked housekeeper, walked forward slowly, stretched out a hand to hold her shoulder.
His hands were always cold, and his summer clothes were light and thin. The housekeeper felt a chill coming down her shoulders.
"Grandma Housekeeper, do you have to give an explanation for Xiaolian's death? Otherwise she won't be able to enter reincarnation and will only be possessed by you."
Liang Yuanque's expression, movements, and his cold fingers, combined with all these, made it difficult for the housekeeper who had already done something wrong to endure it.
"No, no, I didn't want to kill her. Tell her, it wasn't me who wanted to kill her!" the housekeeper screamed.
Liang Yuanque squeezed her shoulder's hand hard,
"Don't tell me, tell Xiaolian!"
Seeing that the housekeeper was trembling and silent, Liang Yuanque simply put his cold fingers on her old face.
The cold and delicate touch felt like a ghost floating by.
"Tell me well, if Xiaolian is willing to let you go, I can help you settle your matter, and I can also help you gain a few more years of life."
The housekeeper's psychological defense was completely broken, and she clasped her hands and begged for mercy in the void.
"Xiao Lian, please forgive me. I will treat your family well. I will build your grave and erect a monument and pay tribute every year. You are a meritorious official of the Song family, and the Song family will never forget you. "
After saying so much, the truth seems to be coming out, but Liang Yuanque wants her to admit something personally.
"Can you hear the noise around you? That's Xiaolian asking you why you chose her!"
The housekeeper started to cry, she was so frightened that she burst into tears. Because she was so nervous, there seemed to be noisy whispers in her ears.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu is wrong, I didn't really want to kill you. If you die by yourself, there is no need for me to do it..."
Okay, from what she said, Xiaolian did something wrong?
Huang Jingye walked out of the room quickly, grabbed the housekeeper's collar, and lifted her up from the ground.
"Did you kill Xiaolian to cover up the truth about my sister's death?"
His impulse broke up the atmosphere Liang Yuanque had just created. The housekeeper rolled her eyes and suddenly understood.
They are trying to make things up in their own words.
Once she figured this out, she knew it would be wrong to say too much. No matter how fiercely Huang Jingye asked, she kept her mouth shut and never said a word again.
Liang Yuanque's mind was also spinning rapidly. He saw several people coming in this direction with Master Song from a distance, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
He grabbed Huang Jingye and said, "Mr. Huang, it doesn't matter if she doesn't tell. Xiaolian has already told me the truth."
Fear is a one-time thing. Once it is dissipated, it is difficult to have any effect again. The housekeeper broke away from Huang Jingye's shackles and simply sat down on the ground.
"Okay, stop acting. I think you are just deliberately lying to me. What kind of masters and charlatans are you?"
She crossed her arms and spat hard on the ground.
But Liang Yuanque ignored her, looked at Master Song and was only one step away, and deliberately said loudly,
"You said that the murder of Xiaolian was ordered by Mr. Song. Do you have any evidence?"
Mr. Song, who was about to walk in, was stunned for a moment.
