My Lord, your wife is spreading rumors about you again.

Chapter 26 Noble Prostitute
The maid was stunned, and recalled: "Second Miss? She seems to have been a bystander. But I think every word she said was not in vain. The reason why Zhu dared to pull out the hairpin and stab Madam Wang was directly related to Second Miss Ming."

Indeed, if it weren't for those two words of courtesy, Zhu would never have dared to act like this.

Hearing this, Wuwei raised his head for a moment and guessed, "Master, is the Second Miss trying to sow discord between Madam Wang and Madam Zhu?"

"No, she was the instigator."

Zhang Zhi couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore, so he said, "Let's go back home."

The maid asked, "Sir, are we not going to wait for the third room?"

Zhang Zhi smiled and took the sleeping Dahei from Wuwei's hands: "They? I guess they can't get out?"

If you fall into Mingli's hands, you will be skinned alive if you don't die.

On the other side, Mingli entered the room alone. The charming smell lingered around him. Mingli did not go to see the three people on the couch first, but walked to a corner and collected the remaining incense powder with a handkerchief.

This powder was also her creation. The first part is aphrodisiac, and the latter part causes dizziness. This is why Ming Yun, Zhang Yang and Mo Zhengfeng are so deep in sleep.

After putting away the tools used in the crime, Mingli took out a small bottle similar to a snuff bottle and put the mouth of the bottle close to Mingyun's nose.

"Ah-"

She sneezed violently and woke up immediately. Maybe it was because of the residual drugs, Mingyun's mind was still confused, she stared blankly at Mingli who was smiling in front of her.

Then he saw Zhang Yang and Mo Zhengfeng, who were naked and lying on the same bed with him.

A look of panic immediately crept up on her and she covered her ears. Before she could scream, something smelly was stuffed into her mouth.

Mingyun felt like vomiting, so she pulled it off. This, this, this, this... turned out to be a pair of underwear!
Mingli smiled, wiped his hands with a handkerchief without leaving any trace, and then threw it away decisively: "Sorry, I just grabbed it casually, sorry."

"Ming Li!" Ming Yun was furious. She stuffed the quilt against her chest, her eyes completely red. "Did you drug me? Tell me! Did you do it? If not, how could I treat Brother Yang, that thief Mo Zhengfeng, like this? How could I happen to see it, and then, and then..."

"It was your mother who gave it to me. I just gave her the full dosage. After all, you want to have sex with two people at once, so how can a little bit of aphrodisiac be enough?"

Mingli said lightly, although she was indifferent, she would not take the initiative to hurt others. Whether it was the Zhou family yesterday or Mingyun and her daughter today, anyone who provoked her would die.

Mingli's smile disappeared. She sat beside the couch and suddenly asked, "Noble prostitute, who came up with this idea?"

"What?" Ming Yun's pupils slightly widened, she swallowed, and her palms were sweating. This expression clearly showed that she knew something.

Seeing this, Mingli curled his lips slightly: "It seems that you know, then I will start asking."

Ming Yun stepped back subconsciously, and suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed her neck tightly. Ming Li grabbed her throat, so she couldn't even scream.

Mingli's brows were gloomy and her eyes were cold, as if human life was worthless in her eyes.

"You are crazy."

Mingyun tried desperately to scratch, hit and scratch, hoping to get a chance of survival, but it was all in vain.

Mingli took out the dagger hidden in the side of his boots for self-defense. The sharp cold light shone on Mingyun's face, and her reaction became more intense. "Pah——"

"Snapped--"

"Snapped--"

Three slaps in a row immediately made Mingyun quiet down. She sobbed and covered her face with her hands. When she saw Mingli raising his hand again, she immediately covered her mouth again.

The dagger in Mingli's hand was against Mingyun's face, not her neck, because for someone like Mingyun, nothing was more important than appearance.

Mingli slowly released her throat, and the blade of the dagger had already touched her skin. The chill immediately spread throughout her body, passing through her pores and meridians.

Ming Yun cried with tears streaming down her face, her nose red, and she begged for mercy with a sob: "Second sister, please don't ruin my appearance, I beg you, I'm still negotiating a marriage with the Zhang family. If I ruin my appearance now, not only will my marriage be ruined, but my whole life will be ruined!"

"Sister Er Er, I, I know that being a prostitute is a great humiliation to you."

Ming Yun swallowed her saliva and said tremblingly, "But second sister, you are wise. These things were all arranged by grandma and mother. I am just a child who has just come of age. How could I have the courage to do such a thing? It's all the fault of grandma and mother. Second sister, please don't vent your anger on me."

Mingli sneered. Zhu was not a fool, as she was someone who could even sell out her own mother. How could she raise such a daughter?

Mingli obviously had no patience. She raised the dagger and stabbed it hard, stopping when the tip of the knife was half a finger away from the eyeball.

"Tell me the whole story. If you dare to tell me a lie, I will gouge out your eyes."

Mingyun was frightened and started crying again. She begged for mercy again and again: "Yes, yes, I don't dare, I don't dare! I just remember it was around the New Year's Day two years ago. I heard it from my mother."

That year was the first year that my sister married into the Zhou family. Only three months after the marriage, Zhou Shu had already taken in a third-room singing girl. As the legal wife, my sister naturally had the responsibility to advise and supervise her husband when he was too playful. She had just said the first sentence in a nice way when Zhou Shu, who was drunk, beat and raped her.

Zhou Shu didn't know that his sister was already pregnant at that time, and because of his brutal behavior that night, she had a miscarriage. His sister was also seriously injured and could never get pregnant again.

As none of his wife or concubines had been pregnant for a long time, Zhou Shu felt depressed and often went out to gamble and visit prostitutes.

Ming Shuyuan, the third master of the Ming family, is also a playboy who likes to hang out in casinos and brothels.

One day, Zhou Shu had bad luck and lost all the more than 3,000 taels of silver he brought with him. He happened to meet Ming Shuyuan, who immediately offered to lend Zhou Shu money to gamble again. Once gambling is addictive, even the king of heaven cannot help.

In fact, Ming Shuyuan had a stake in that gambling house and was considered one of the owners. He saw that Zhou Shu was addicted to gambling, so he took the initiative to ask for money.

Lose in batches, borrow in batches.

He played one round after another, with interest compounding, and in one night, Zhou Shu lost all his clothes and pants, and also owed a huge debt of 300,000 taels.

Although the Zhou family is an earl, they have not been valued by the emperor for many years. The family is extravagant and the treasury has long been in deficit. If it were not for the elder sister who had been secretly using her meager dowry to supplement the family, the Zhou family would not even be able to afford servants.

However, at this moment, Ming Shuyuan said that as long as Zhou Shu was willing to give his sister to him for one night, he could offset the 50,000 taels.
