concubine daughter

Chapter 7 Fate
Haitang borrowed Manqing's step and went to a remote place, where there were still traces of fighting on the ground, "There are many eyeliners in Liuxiangyuan, and the third master removed a lot, but every time they removed, a new batch would be brought in. The third master simply kept it, so it is inconvenient to tell grandma about it in the courtyard."

After explaining to Manqing in detail, Haitang asked, "Does grandma have any countermeasures?"

"Of course there are." Man Qing said confidently, "But if you kill these people who follow me, they won't be able to report back in time, and they will inevitably startle the snake."

"Grandma, don't worry, there are two of these people who were inserted by the third master. Those two will tell the second master on their behalf that grandma has indeed gone to buy medicine, and the others bumped into grandma and died at grandma's hands. In this way , the second master thought he was scaring the snake, so he didn't dare to act rashly for the time being."

Haitang is a polite person, even if she is a member of Hongzhen, she does not dare to disrespect Manqing, and keeps her head down when she answers, showing respect to Manqing.

"Two strangers can fool the second master? According to you, the second master's city is not as good as the third master. Soon he will be the soul of the third master's sword?" Man Qing said in a half-sarcastic tone.

Back at Hou's Mansion, Manqing turned into Yongyi's Mansion, wanting to take a shortcut and return to Qinxi's Mansion, Yunzhi and Haitang followed closely behind, all bowed their bodies and buried their heads deeply.

Suddenly hearing a heavy cough in front of him, Man Qing took a closer look, and saw a man coming out from the corner, clutching his heart, stumbled and fell to the ground.

The man was about the same age as Man Qing, dressed in a plain shirt, although he had the appearance of a jade tree facing the wind, but he had a poisoned and ferocious expression attached to it, which reduced his heroism and handsomeness a bit.

Haitang didn't seem to care about him at all, and introduced him coldly: "Grandma, he is the son of the third wife of the Yongyi Mansion, grandma doesn't need to pay attention to it, so as not to get into trouble."

"Don't talk nonsense. Since he is the son of the third wife, he is a cousin. How can there be no reason to save him? Yunzhi!"

Man Qing gave Yun Zhi a wink, Yun Zhi understood, helped Hong Zhi get up, and sat down on the lawn beside him.

Haitang didn't say much, and quietly stepped aside.

Man Qing took out the silver needle bag she carried with her, and administered the needle through her clothes to expel Hongzhi's toxin.

After half an hour, Hongzhi was detoxified.

Hong Zhi stared at Man Qing's pretty face, and the fiery red lips were the most alluring, making people dream about.

"Thank you benefactor." Just as Hong Zhi was about to kneel down, he was stopped by Man Qing, "Brother, you are welcome. I am the servant wife of the third master of Qin Xi's mansion, and relatives should help each other."

"That's my cousin, thank you, cousin." Hong Zhi is the only person from the Hou family Man Qing has ever met who has nothing to say. Children are poisoned because of their high status.

"You don't have to worry about my cousin. My cousin is the son of the eldest son, and he will be the master of Yongyi Mansion in the future. How could he be poisoned for no reason?"

Man Qing asked up to this point, Hongzhi's expression was gloomy, and he shook his head helplessly, "As for the master, I don't have that ambition. I don't know why I was poisoned, and I don't want to pursue it. Leave this place of right and wrong to keep yourself safe."

Hongzhi's eyes were full of helplessness and innocence. He seemed not wary of people, or maybe he was not defensive about Man Qing, but he even said this without any precautions. If it got out, Hongzhen would be damaged.

"Cousin really wants to give up the competition for the eldest son? You must know that Lord Hou's heir is chosen from among his eldest grandsons."

"I never thought about taking the position of the eldest son." Hong Zhi blurted out, with a swearing look, in his eyes, it seemed that only Man Qing could save him.

"There is an opportunity right now... But once you leave the Hou's mansion, you can't come back. I will help you prepare for trouble, and I will help you take care of your mother." Man Qing looked around, the environment here is quiet and quiet , should be a safe place, so he pulled Hongzhi aside and talked with him in detail.

Hongzhi was happy to hear that, but felt that Manqing was a smart person, so he nodded in agreement and left with satisfaction.

Seeing Hong Zhi's figure walking away, Yun Zhi took a step forward and asked, "Grandma saved him in order to win over Fourth Master Biao?"

Man Qing glanced at Yunzhi, then glanced at Haitang, and said with something in her words: "How did you find out now, Haitang knew about it early in the morning."

Ever since Haitang didn't stop her, Man Qing knew that Haitang had seen her thoughts. Haitang really understood, but the more she understood, the more dangerous she was, after all, she was not her own.

Haitang lowered her head in fear and trepidation, "I dare not guess grandma's mind."

Man Qing stretched her expression, and held Haitang's hand with a smile on her face, "I didn't mean that you were overstepping, I just hope that my own people can be smart, and I don't like others to be smart."

Haitang could hear Man Qing's meaning, "Your servant must obey the orders of the third master and grandma." Haitang respectfully blessed her body again.

Man Qing understood what it meant, but Yun Zhi could not hear it. It was a very peaceful conversation, but there was a hidden meaning in their eyes that she couldn't understand.

"How is grandma going to deal with the second master?" Yun Zhi stopped immediately as soon as she asked, because a strange man was approaching her.

The man had thick black hair, and his beautiful facial features showed four words: Angry, as if he wanted to hit Man Qing, halfway, he stopped suddenly, the folding fan in his hand slipped down, and his anger turned into shock, "Qingyun... ..."

He is the eldest son of Yongyi Mansion, named Xiahou Hongchao.

Before Haitang had time to introduce to Man Qing, Hong Chao stepped forward quickly, hugged Man Qing tightly, stroking Man Qing's back with his big hand from time to time, like meeting a long-lost lover.

"Let go." Seeing Hong Chao's posture just now, Man Qing guessed that Hong Chao was probably the one who harmed Hong Zhi, so she had to speak coldly and tried her best to break away from Hong Chao, and slapped Hong Chao mercilessly .

Hong Chao was suddenly disappointed, dropped his hands weakly, and called Qingyun in his mouth.

Manqing recognized Qingyun, she was the grandfather's direct granddaughter, the young master who was assigned to Yongyi Mansion by the emperor after Jiji, and she went there within two months of getting married.

"Let's go." Man Qing told Yunzhi and Haitang, and left without thinking for a moment.

Watching Man Qing leave gradually, Hong Chao couldn't help feeling a ripple in his heart, "Qing Yun...is that you?" As soon as he finished speaking, a teardrop the size of a pea oozed from the corner of Hong Chao's eye.
