ALL NOVEL Chapter 53 She wants to play the innocent victim
"Miss, miss, it's not good, it's not good! Something happened!"
Li Qingru had just taken a nap on the imperial concubine's couch. She hadn't fully woken up yet, and her head was still a little groggy. The maid rushed in recklessly, yelling loudly, and her head was swollen. Yes, my heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot.
"What are you yelling about? Miss just woke up! What a panic!" Li Qingru's nanny scolded.
The maid cried sadly, "Mommy, something really happened! Outside, outside our house, at the gate... several people came, shouting loudly... saying that the lady hired the three brothers to harm people, and they wouldn't do it. I’m here to return the money!”
"What?!" Li Qingru inside was now completely awake. She ran out without even having time to put on her shoes, her eyes widened, "What did you just say?"
The maid was frightened by her fierce eyes and repeated her words tremblingly, "Miss, go and take a look. There are many people outside the gate now. Everyone... everyone has heard it!"
Those people seemed to be doing it on purpose, they were shouting so loudly!
Li Qingru's face was so gloomy that water dripped from her face, and she subconsciously wanted to rush out, but was stopped by her nanny in time.
"Oh, my lady, why don't you put on your shoes and clothes!"
When Li Qingru packed up and walked out, his eyes darkened when he saw the situation outside, and he wished he could faint on the spot!
The crowd is full of people!
"What do you do for food? Why don't you drive these people away!" Li Qingru gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence.
The doorman said bitterly, "Miss, it's not that I didn't rush, it's just that people gathered here just after I rushed..."
I don't dare to take action. If I do, these people are shouting that the servants of the Minister of War openly beat good people, then he must be punished!
"Bold! Who are you? If you dare to cause trouble in front of the Minister of War, aren't you afraid that you will all be arrested and put in prison?" Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of War finally rushed over.
But she didn't know the good things her daughter had done, and she really thought someone was here to cause trouble on purpose.
"We are either here to cause trouble, or we are here to return the money! A few days ago, the eldest lady in your house contacted us privately and offered us a hundred taels of silver to help her kill someone."
"Our brothers took it, but later we found out that the person the eldest lady in your family asked our brothers to kill was also a little girl who had not yet had haircuts! We couldn't bear it, and we really couldn't do this, so we came back to refund the money. This case We’re done with the business!”
"Nonsense! I don't know you at all, and I have never done the things you said! Who are you to deliberately slander me and throw dirty water on our Ministry of War Minister's Mansion?" Li Qingru shouted sharply.
"Miss Li, are you turning your back on me? Although the three of us brothers don't know why you asked us to kill the eldest lady of Chengguo Palace, we also have a conscience! This little girl is so innocent. I don’t know why I offended you, but you are going to kill someone. And we can’t afford to offend Duke Chengguo!”
"So now we return the money to you, and the deal is void!" The boss threw a money bag on the steps at the door. A trace of distress flashed in his eyes, but he was immediately suppressed again.
The aunt said that if this matter was not settled, she would wait for her to go to the Yamen and tell the official all about the "good things" their brothers had done over the years, and where was the evidence.
"Oh, and this jade pendant..." The boss took out a jade pendant, "You can't deny that this jade pendant is yours, right? This is your personal jade pendant. You gave it to us three brothers in order to appease us. I said I would return it to you when the deal is done. Now that the deal cannot be concluded, I will return this jade pendant to you!"
When the boss took out the jade pendant, Li Qingru's pupils suddenly shrank, and one hand subconsciously touched his waist.
Naturally, the onlookers clearly saw her subconscious actions.
"Wow! Is it true that Miss Li paid for the murder, and the one she wanted to kill was the eldest lady of the Chengguo Palace?"
"Why do you want to kill the eldest lady of Chengguo Palace? These two people have a grudge?"
"What kind of hatred can there be? The eldest lady of the Chengguo Palace has not been out a few times. Besides, what kind of hatred and grievances have to kill people? This Miss Li is too cruel and dark-hearted! She is so young at such a young age Vicious, you’ll get it again in the future!”
"Hey, could it be that the eldest lady of Duke Chengguo's mansion knew some secret about Miss Li, and that's why she didn't silence her?"
When the three brothers heard this discussion, they looked at each other secretly, then got into the crowd and quickly disappeared.
When Li Qingru came back to her senses, she fainted without lifting her breath.
What's worse is that the maid next to her was also stunned and didn't react in time, so she didn't catch her in time, causing her to fall to the ground.
"Ah! There's blood! She's bleeding!"
"This... my God, is Miss Li pregnant? Isn't she not married yet?"
Mrs. Li's vision went dark when she saw this, and there were only two words in her mind: It's over!
Sure enough, the story that the eldest daughter of the Minister of War got pregnant out of wedlock, hired a murderer, and was provoked to have a miscarriage in public spread like a prairie fire!
"Hahahaha..." Xu Muhua held her belly and laughed uncontrollably.
She never thought of exposing Li Qingru's pregnancy out of wedlock in public. If she did, she would really offend the Minister of War. She wants to play an innocent victim!
As for this matter, there will always be people who are curious and looking for clues, and they will always be discovered.
Well now, Li Qingru actually had a miscarriage in public!
She is also a brainless person. Since the abortion pill has been taken long ago, she should have it fried and drunk as soon as possible, and it will be over. After taking the medicine, even if you still bleed today, as long as you insist that you are menstruating, there is nothing you can do.
But now it's better. The three brothers just exposed the story of paying someone to kill someone in public, and then Li Qingru behaved like this. It's hard not to make people suspicious!
Could it be that the eldest daughter of Duke Cheng's mansion knew the secret of Miss Li's pregnancy before marriage, so she wanted to kill her to silence her? This reason is very good and convincing!
And if something like this happened, there must be many people watching the Ministry of War Shangshu Mansion. At this time, if they want to make a lie and say that Li Qingru is menstruating, it will be difficult, and no one will believe it anymore.
"Oh ho ho, come on, come on, can someone help me go and watch Li Qingru? I want to see the follow-up development of the story!" Xu Muhua was gearing up, his eyes shining with interest.
