The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 86 The Crow's Mouth Never Makes a Mistake
Lang Jiuchuan returned home with another cart of gifts. When the news spread throughout the mansion, everyone had different expressions.

Jianlan and Nanny Gu were taking Daman and Xiaoman to register. They looked at the table full of expensive tonics, even two rare books, and fell into deep thought.

Normally, these precious tonics are hard to come by for other people, but for the girl in this family, they seem to come very easily, and not just a little bit, but a lot.

When Lang Jiuchuan went to pay his respects to Old Madam Lang, he secretly used a medicine talisman on her to prevent her from having damaged her soul by taking the road to the underworld. He then checked her pulse and saw that she was not seriously injured. He chatted with her for a few words before returning to his own yard and diving into the study.

Master Xue gave her a lot of medicinal herbs, plus what the Shen family gave her before, she planned to make some pills to strengthen her body and take them on a daily basis.

Lang Jiuchuan's actions were not hidden from anyone, so Cui naturally found out about it. When she saw that Lang Jiuchuan had no intention of coming to her side, her face turned a little sour.

Seeing this, Nanny Cheng brought the Yangrong Pill that Lang Jiuchuan had given her before, took one pill and gave it to her, saying, "Our young lady still cares about you. There are only two bottles of Yangrong Pills in total, so I'll give one to you and the old lady, and no one else will get one."

Cui looked at the fragrant pill, took a long while to take it and swallowed it, and said: "It doesn't matter whether she loves me or not, just don't make me angry."

Madam Cheng smiled and said, "I think you are just being stubborn. If that's the case, then why did you look at the door several times? Oh, you must not be expecting the girl to come."

Cui suddenly felt embarrassed and said, "I don't know what she got into outside. Don't let her cause a big trouble that can't be dealt with. Go and find out. Don't come back to make amends later, which will be a bad ending."

Nanny Cheng agreed with a smile.

Cui looked down at the jade porcelain bottle, covered her chest with her hands, and suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart. After a while, she got up and went to the cubicle where she usually read and wrote, and took out a long mahogany box from the shelf.

After opening it, there was a scroll inside. She reached out to touch it, her fingertips trembling slightly. It took her a long time before she picked it up and slowly opened it. As soon as she unfolded the front end, a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes with a smile and disdain came into her sight, as if looking at her through the paper.

Cui's eyes suddenly turned red. She rolled up the scroll again and put it back into the box. She pressed the long box, pounded her chest a few times, and tears streamed down her face.

……

Qi Mansion.

After the doctor applied a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment on Qi Xinyu, she fiercely threw a set of top-quality blue-and-white porcelain teacups, her chest heaving with anger.

Ever since her elder sister became the young lady of the Rong family, she has never suffered such a great loss, and she suffered it at the hands of an unknown and short-lived person.

Angry!

"Where are those lowly servants?" Qi Xinyu looked at the maid beside her with a sinister look.

"Fourth Miss, they are all in the front yard waiting for you to send them away."

"For failing to protect their master, all of them will be beaten with a hundred sticks. If they don't die, they will be sold. If they die, they will be thrown into a mass grave." The angrier Qi Xinyu got, the more painful the red and swollen area on her forehead became, making her even more furious.

The maid opened her mouth to plead for mercy, but after another person pulled her sleeve, she said, "Yes, Fourth Miss."

Just as she was about to leave, Qi Xinyu suddenly stood up and said, "Wait, I'll go and watch it myself. I'll see which of these slaves dares to fool me."

In the front yard, all the people who followed Qi Xinyu today knelt there. Snowflakes were flying and falling on their heads. It was freezing cold, but it was not as cold as the despair in their hearts.

When Qi Xinyu arrived, everyone kowtowed and begged for mercy, but they could not arouse any sympathy from Qi Xinyu.

She needed to vent her inner anger.

The board fell and screams rang out one after another.

Jiang Che looked at Qi Xinyu coldly, his gaze falling on the Five Emperors Coins string around her waist. She actually dared to commit murder.

The sound of slapping boards rang out in the yard. Those who were weak, like the maid, were already breathing in and out. In an instant, the yard had one more vengeful spirit.

The blood spread in the air, gradually turning into a blood mist, and rushed towards Qi Xinyu.

One after another, the resentful souls floated up from the flesh and surrounded Qi Xinyu, but they did not dare to get close to her because of the Five Emperors' Coins on her waist. Qi Xinyu looked at the bloody people with a frown, and she did not feel much pleasure, but felt irritated instead.

In the yard, a cold wind blew in with snow.

She shuddered, folded her arms, and said, "Alright, no need to fight anymore. Let's sell the ones that are still alive."

Someone agreed.

But among those who were beaten, only two of them were still breathing.

Someone came hurriedly from outside the courtyard. When I looked over, I saw a woman in gorgeous clothes and a red hairpin, followed by a middle-aged man also in gorgeous clothes.

These were Qi Zuyao and his wife who had just returned from a banquet and rushed over after hearing the news.

They didn't even look at the people in the yard. They only saw that their precious daughter had a pale face, a red and swollen forehead, and a gloomy expression due to anger.

After knowing that Qi Xinyu had been spared the remaining strokes, Qi Zuyao said with a sullen face, "If you can't protect your master well, why keep her?"

He glanced at the butler behind him, who quickly bent down and had those people dragged away for processing.

This one is not to be kept, no matter if there is air or not!
"Dad will talk to General Niu of the West Camp and ask him to find you a few capable guards. These ones hired from outside are not as strong as those trained in the barracks." Qi Zuyao comforted him.

Madam Qi also said, "That's right, my son was really scared. Go back and take good care of yourself. Don't leave any scars. Don't go out again for a while. Once you are well, you can get married in March and be a beautiful bride."

Qi Xinyu, however, was not in a good mood. She nodded and turned to look at the spring bench in the yard.

Those who were beaten had been dragged away, but the blood on the bench was dripping down, dyeing the thin snow on the ground red, which was particularly glaring.

If you don't want to die early, don't commit murder in vain.

The words of the short-lived ghost echoed in his ears like a devil's voice.

Qi Xinyu's face was pale and her body was shaking. She felt as cold as if she was in an ice cellar.

It’s so cold!

What she didn't know was that, beside her, several resentful souls were watching her covetously, and the bloody resentment energy was rapidly forming around them.

Swish swish.

The wind is bleak.

The murders she had committed turned into resentment, mixed with the new bloody resentment in the courtyard, all swept towards her and surrounded her.

The blood resentment turned into sin and finally became a blade, striking at the Five Emperors Coins string around her waist.

tick.

The string of money fell and hit the ground with a dull sound.

Qi Xinyu stared blankly at her pendant, uttered a shrill scream, rolled her eyes, and fell backwards.

Jiang Che looked at those resentful souls who surrounded her like vicious dogs seeing meat, and all the blood and evil spirits penetrated into her red, swollen and broken forehead, then turned and left.

Unjust is doomed to destruction.

The Crow's Mouth is never wrong.
