Liu Weilan returned to her room. She didn't lie down to rest. Instead, she sat quietly, as if waiting for something. After a long while, there was no movement. Liu Weilan finally heaved a sigh of relief. She touched her forehead and realized that her palms were already covered in sweat. She had taken a huge risk today. She was betting on whether Ye Linfeng was more hypocritical or sincere towards her. Of course, she also wanted to know if her position in this residence was as important as it seemed. After all, she still had very important things to complete. If she miscalculated, what awaited her was eternal damnation!
"Raising a tiger too much will definitely cause trouble!" She knew that her simple words would definitely deepen Ye Linfeng's interest in her, but at the same time, it would definitely arouse Ye Linfeng's suspicion. Fortunately, she had won the bet in the end. Ye Linfeng did not do anything to hurt her. It seemed that Ye Linfeng was indeed hiding his strength and biding his time. With such a broad mind, he was definitely not a simple person. However, he usually pretended to be idle. This could only mean that Ye Linfeng had some scheme, and his scheme was not small!
In a flash, Liu Weilan had a deeper understanding of the entire Prince's mansion, and she was more confident. She stood up and paced a few steps, then said calmly," Someone, bring Lvping and Kumoko from Miss Liqi's room."”
"Yes, sir!" Immediately, a guard received the order and left. The influence of Ye Linfeng's words could be seen.
At this time, in a corner of the Prince's mansion where few people came and went, a servant girl and a mysterious person who was covered up were whispering.
The cold wind was biting cold, and the branches and leaves rustled. From time to time, a few broken leaves would be blown up and hit the two of them, and then they would fall into the mud. The conversation between the two of them could also be vaguely heard through the cold.
"Will you keep your word?" A slightly aggrieved and frightened voice came out from the servant girl's mouth.
The mysterious man's voice was cold." You don't have a choice! If you dare to resist, I can guarantee that your parents, brother, and even your dog won't be able to live!”
The servant girl's body trembled and tears flowed out." I beg you, please don't hurt my parents and brother. I'll agree to anything you say. I beg you!"”
The mysterious man's lips curled into a proud smile." That's good. You've been working for me for many years. Don't worry, as long as this is done, I can guarantee that your parents can enjoy their old age, and your brother can marry a beautiful wife. The whole family will be happy and peaceful. How about this?”
The servant girl nodded her head with an ashen face. She then turned her body mechanically and moved out step by step. From afar, the mysterious man's voice could be heard," Pay attention to your image. If anyone suspects or is exposed, you know very well what I'm capable of!”
The servant girl stopped in her tracks and looked back with lingering fear. She quickly raised her hand to wipe her tears and ran away.
"What took you so long?" Liu Weilan looked at the two guards, the maid Lvping, and the servant Kumoko, frowning.
The two guards immediately knelt on one knee and replied respectfully,"Reporting to Secondary Consort Liu, when I waited, Miss Lu Ping had a stomachache, so I made Furen wait for a long time.”
"Stomachache?" Liu Weilan's eyes flashed, and there was an inexplicable meaning in her voice. She looked at Lvping and asked," Did you eat something bad?"”
When Lu Ping heard this, she immediately knelt on the ground." Madam, please calm down. This servant's health has not been good since I was young. I made Madam wait for so long. This servant is guilty. Please punish me!”Judging from the voice, it was the servant girl who had been talking to the mysterious person in the corner earlier!
Lvping started to kowtow loudly on the ground. Every kowtow was solid and almost scared Liu Weilan.
Liu Weilan looked at Lvping in surprise and said,""Alright, get up first. I have some questions to ask you.”
Lu Ping kowtowed twice before standing up and bowing to the side.
Liu Weilan looked at Yunzi and Lvping. She sat on the chair and took a sip of tea before saying,""How long have you been in the residence?"
Kumoko lowered her head and spoke with a humble and respectful attitude,""Replying to Furen, this servant's parents died when I was seven years old and I had no one to rely on. Fortunately, wangye was kind enough to allow this servant to live in the fu with aunt.”
Liu Weilan nodded and turned to look at Lvping. Lvping seemed to be in a daze and did not move for a long time. Liu Weilan frowned slightly. Zi-er, who had been standing at the side, coughed lightly. Lvping seemed to have suddenly woken up. She raised her head and looked at Zi-er blankly. Her eyes were dull and she looked extremely pitiful.
Zi 'er was a little surprised. The Lvping she knew was usually clever, cute, and generous. She did not look like this. Her appearance was indeed a little strange. However, now was not the time to ask about the reason. Zi-er reminded him,""Ping 'er, Furen asked how many years you have been in the fu.”
Lu Ping knelt down again and said repeatedly,""Furen, please forgive me.”As Lu Ping spoke, her voice was already filled with tears.
Liu Weilan's expression turned serious. She stood up and said sternly,""Lvping, did you do something you shouldn't have done?!”
Lu Ping repeatedly kowtowed." Miss Li Qi…Miss Li Qi, this servant…this servant…" Speaking up to this point, Lu Ping was already sobbing soundlessly.
Liu Weilan didn't say a word, quietly waiting for Lu Ping to continue.
After a long while, Lu Ping finally stopped sobbing and said intermittently,"This servant…. This servant had a grudge against…. Miss Liqi, so…. poisoned…. poisoned her to death!”
Hearing this, not only did Zi-er's expression turn strange, even Yunzi looked at Zi-er in surprise. As everyone knew, Lvping usually followed the rules in the residence and was polite to others. She had always been highly valued by Liqi. The rewards she received on a daily basis often made many servant girls envious. The relationship between the master and servant was also very good. It was really unbelievable that she would harm Liqi.
Liu Weilan said calmly,""Lvping, do you know what you're saying? Do you know the consequences of your words?”
Lu Ping kowtowed repeatedly. Tears had long covered her face. Her small face was pale and suffused with a dull death intent.
"This servant is guilty, this servant deserves to die. It's all this servant's fault for being narrow-minded and having evil thoughts.”
"Alright, then tell me why you want to harm Miss Liqi.”Liu Weilan's tone was still calm and emotionless, but she sounded like Lord Bao.
