After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 549 Little Jiuniang is here to claim her life

Gongsun Yanming sent Xiao Ronger back to the yard.

When he came out, Gongsun Yu was waiting for him outside.

"Brother, is sister-in-law okay?"

Gongsun Yanming glanced at him.

Gongsun Yu hurriedly said, "Zi Yu's death was a huge blow to her, and Uncle Xiao happened to come to our house. What if Uncle Xiao thinks that our Qianji Pavilion mistreats his daughter..."

"This isn't something you should worry about."

Gongsun Yanming interrupted him.

Accidents happened one after another within one day, and even he couldn't help but show a trace of fatigue between his brows.

Gongsun Yu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother, Zi Yu...are you going to announce the funeral?"

Gongsun Yanming said: "Don't announce the death yet."

The younger sister died on her elder sister's wedding day, and the news spread, causing a stir.

There have been enough disturbances in Qianji Pavilion recently, and we cannot allow the people to criticize us anymore.

Gongsun Yu muttered, "Brother, go and talk to Uncle Xiao yourself. I don't dare."

Gongsun Yanming suddenly asked, "How is that person?"

"Who?"

Gongsun Yu was stunned for a moment before he realized who his elder brother was asking about. "Same old, either lying down or sitting still all day."

Gongsun Yanming said: "I'll go take a look."

The two brothers went to the courtyard where the battle formation was to be set up.

As soon as he entered the yard, Gongsun Yanming paused and looked around with a vigilant look.

Gongsun Yu asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"

Gongsun Yanming looked at the bird droppings in the corner and asked: "Is there anyone raising birds nearby?"

"No." Gongsun Yu said, "No one in the mansion keeps birds. Is it because spring has come that there are more birds?"

Gongsun Yanming entered the gate.

He looked up at the red lantern that had long been hung back up, and went down to the cellar.

Gongsun Yu pressed the mechanism and opened a stone door in the cellar.

A pungent and unpleasant smell hit his nose, and Gongsun Yu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves: "Brother, why do you suddenly want to come and see him?"

Gongsun Yanming walked straight to the stone bed, first glanced at the steamed buns and food scattered on the ground, then raised his hand and pulled away the moldy quilt on the other person's body.

An incredible scene occurred.

The person lying under the quilt was not a living person at all, but a scarecrow with long hair!

Gongsun Yu was shocked. He walked quickly to the bed and twisted the man's head off.

The size of the head is made to look realistic, but once the long hair covers it, you can't tell anything unusual unless you look closely.

"No... this... I'm clearly... where is the person?"

He was so shocked that he was incoherent.

Gongsun Yanming asked, "How often do you deliver meals?"

Gongsun Yu replied: "Once a day."

Gongsun Yanming looked at him seriously.

Gongsun Yu lowered his head guiltily: "Two... once every two days... when it's cold... sometimes three or five days... but I swear, I really came last night! I thought Liuying was going to get married, so I gave him a good meal. If you don't believe me, look at these chickens, ducks, fish and meat on the ground. They are all the dishes prepared by the kitchen yesterday! Could it be that he escaped today?"

Gongsun Yanming asked, "Did he eat the food you gave him before?"

Gongsun Yu said, "I ate it, but not much. It spilled all over the floor, just like usual."

Gongsun Yanming touched the dust on the stone bed with his fingertips: "He is no longer here. Someone has been 'eating' the food you sent."

Gongsun Yu was horrified: "Who could it be? It can't be that girl, right?"

Gongsun Yanming said sternly: "Don't let this matter leak out, especially don't let my father-in-law know."

Gongsun Yu nodded solemnly: "I understand. If that person tells others about what happened back then, it won't just be Qianji Pavilion that will be in trouble. Even the Xiao family will be attacked by the world. If Uncle Xiao knew that he was alive, he would definitely kill him. It's a pity that we haven't got what we want yet, and we can't let him die like this."

"That girl must have done it! Brother, the only solution now is to use Yan Hanshuang's life... to exchange for someone else."

midnight.

Xiao Ronger fell into a horrible nightmare.

"Mother...my daughter is so miserable..."

"My daughter's fingers hurt..."

"Hurry up and save my daughter..."

"Firefly...Firefly...Firefly——"

Xiao Ronger sat up in shock from her sleep, her nightgown soaked with cold sweat. She was still in shock and gasping for breath. "Someone come!"

she called.

The maid on duty came in with a lamp and gently opened the curtain, "Madam."

Xiao Ronger panted and asked, "Where's Hongxiu?"

The maid said, "Sister Hongxiu is out. I will be on duty tonight."

Xiao Ronger said angrily: "Who asked her to leave? Does she still have me as her master in her eyes?"

The maid was so frightened that she dared not breathe.

"Pour the tea."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maid poured Xiao Ronger a cup of tea.

Xiao Ronger just took a sip and spat it out. He slapped her in the face and said, "Do you want to burn me to death?"

The maid fell to her knees and said, "Madam... the water is cold..."

"You still dare to be stubborn?"

Xiao Ronger threw the tea in her hand on the maid's head.

The maid's head was broken and bleeding instantly.

Xiao Ronger shouted: "Get out!"

The maid bit her lip, quickly picked up the debris on the ground, and went out with tears in her eyes.

Xiao Ronger lay down again.

"Sister Rong'er...Sister Rong'er..."

Xiao Ronger opened her eyes suddenly: "Who? Who is playing tricks there?"

"Sister Rong'er, it's me, Sister Ayuan."

A gentle and sweet voice came from all directions.

Xiao Ronger pulled open the curtain.

A black shadow flashed past the window, leaving a fleeting image on the window paper.

Xiao Ronger pulled out the sword hanging on the wall and rushed out.

The cold wind blew in, ruffling her long hair and pajamas.

"Sister Rong'er."

"Sister Rong'er."

The calling voice came and went, like waves constantly hitting her mind.

"Don't play tricks on me! Come out right here!"

She yelled.

The maid stepped forward tremblingly: "Madam..."

She had just been hit and her face was covered in blood.

As soon as she appeared, Xiao Ronger felt that it was Zhongli Yuan who had transformed into a fierce ghost and came to take her life, so she slashed at the maid with a sword.

The maid screamed and rolled down the stairs.

"Sister Rong'er."

"Sister Rong'er."

Xiao Ronger could still hear Zhongli Yuan's cries.

She raised her sword and rushed out following the sound.

"Zhongli Yuan! Come out here! Even if you turn into a ghost, I won't be afraid of you!"

"Zhongli Yuan, don't hide!"

"When you are alive, I can kill you. When you are dead, I can still scare your soul to pieces!"

"Really? Xiao Rong'er."

A clear and cold voice suddenly appeared behind Xiao Ronger.

Xiao Ronger turned around and saw Zhongli Yuan in a blue dress.

After so many years, there is no trace of time on Zhongli Yuan's face, and she is as beautiful as an immortal.

Especially those white jade hands.

The old Pavilion Master once said that these were a pair of divine hands naturally capable of performing the Thirteen Ghost Needles.

Xiao Ronger took a few steps back in fear: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

Zhongli Yuan smiled and said, "Sister Rong'er, don't you remember? You killed me, and I... am a fierce ghost who came to take your life!"
