She was so kind to Du Ruquan, and even regarded him as the shopkeeper, but Du Ruquan actually secretly plotted a murder behind her back, causing her to almost die in the fire.
Seeing that the lady was speechless for a long time, Butler Kong asked softly: "Miss, what should I do?"
After all, Tantai Heqing was not an ordinary woman. After adjusting her mood, she calmly said: "Steward Kong, take some money to the Yamen to do some research, and say that Du Ruquan is half a slave of my Tantai Mansion, and hand Du Ruquan over to Tantai.
Government disposal.”
Butler Kong was surprised when he heard this, "Miss, you can't be lenient. If Mr. Xie hadn't fought to save you, you would have died in the fire."
At this time, Butler Kong hated Du Ruquan deeply, because Du Ruquan was the young lady's old relative, so he didn't dare to make his own decision. Seeing that the young lady wanted to save Du Ruquan, he couldn't help but speak.
Tantai Heqing sneered: "Qingrao! If I am Qingrao, won't everyone regard me, Tantai Heqing, as a soft-hearted person, and won't everyone bully me in the future?"
Butler Kong immediately understood that the young lady wanted to be dealt with according to the family law, "Old slave, go and bring Du Ruquan to the house now."
About an hour later, Du Ruquan was pressed in front of Tantai Heqing by two government officials.
Du Ruquan had disheveled hair and a haggard face. He seemed to have been tortured. When he saw Tantai Heqing, he immediately seemed to see a savior and shouted: "Miss."
Tantai He had no expression on his face and asked coldly: "Du Ruquan, I just want to ask, did you set the fire?"
Du Ruquan knew in her heart that if she could not be forgiven by Tantai Heqing at this time, she would definitely die. She took herself from the Yamen to Tantai Mansion. It seemed that she still missed the old feelings and said with a guilty look on her face: "Miss, I was wrong...
…”
"Du Ruquan, do you know that you almost killed me?"
Although Tantai Heqing's voice was cold, her expression was very calm, which gave Du Ruquan an illusion. The lady was still reluctant to let go, and said with regret and hatred: "Miss, Ruquan never wanted to harm you, Ruquan just wanted to give
Miss, please create a little trouble to make her understand that she can't live without me."
"I also want her to understand that no matter how big the difficulties are, Ruquan will stand by her side and accompany her through the difficulties. No one is as good to her as I am."
Du Ruquan's expression was very sincere, and when he talked about the emotional part, he was already bursting with snot and tears.
When Butler Kong saw this, he thought to himself, this traitor is so good at pretending, Miss, please don't be soft-hearted.
Tantai Heqing sneered: "Then I still want to thank you."
Du Ruquan raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and his expression suddenly became righteous: "That day in the study, Miss was so indifferent to Ru Quan. Ru Quan knew that Miss had planned to drive me away, and when I thought about not being able to stay with Miss in the future,
People around me feel as if their hearts are being cut by a knife, so I would be confused and set fire to something."
"If Ruquan is guilty, it is the crime of falling in love with the lady and loving the lady deeply. Miss, you should put Ruquan to death. Ruquan doesn't want to live anyway."
Tantai Heqing winked at Butler Kong, indicating that she would reward the two government officials and let them leave. She had to do business.
Du Ruquan turned around and saw the two government officials leaving with the rewards, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Tantai Heqing really still followed this trick. If he begged her in every possible way, she would be even more angry.
Tantai Heqing has been dealing with those treacherous and cunning businessmen for many years, and he is already sophisticated. How can he be so easy to coax and deceive? He said calmly: "Du Ruquan, don't say that I won't give you a chance, you will be punished by death?"
Hearing this, Du Ruquan thought to himself, after all, he had done such a heinous thing, and it was absolutely impossible for Tantai Heqing not to punish him in any way. Thinking of this, he replied: "Ruquan was confused for a moment, and I hope the lady can be lenient."
, receive a lighter punishment.”
Tantai Heqing smiled softly and said, "That means I still want to live." Her voice sounded a bit sweet.
Du Ruquan said solemnly: "Ruquan still wants to live and serve the young lady to atone for her sins!"
Tantai He smiled affectionately and said, "I'll help you, Butler Kong, and take him down to ride the wooden donkey."
Butler Kong said coldly: "Yes!"
Du Ruquan's expression changed when he heard this, and he knelt down with a plop: "Miss, you are going to hurt me to death!"
Tantai He was as cold as ice, but he didn't bother to say another word at this moment.
Butler Kong shouted to two of Kong's powerful servants: "Get started and take them down."
Two men grabbed Du Ruquan's arms, but Du Ruquan broke free and quickly knelt at Tantai Heqing's feet. He grabbed both of Tantai Heqing's feet and begged in pain: "Miss, it's my fault that I love you too much.
Spare me! Spare me!"
Tantai Heqing was even more disgusted and hated towards Du Ruquan at this moment. She kicked him in the face and said coldly to the bone: "You deserve it too!"
The two big men just took a step forward and pressed Du Ruquan, whose nose was bleeding, to the ground.
At this moment, Du Ruquan's true colors were revealed, and he still had no backbone. He cried bitterly and begged: "Miss, please spare me, spare me..."
Tantai He rolled his sleeves angrily, turned around and left proudly, unwilling to say another word to this person.
Du Ruquan, who was lying on the ground, looked at the half of the snow-white silk stockings escaping from the embroidered bow shoes, getting further and further away from him, and despaired. It turned out that this woman was so cold.
Mr. Xie is in Wenwang's study room in Tantai.
Butler Kong arrived and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Master, the lady has something for you to do."
Xie Fu happily responded: "Okay, what's the matter?"
After walking out of the study, Butler Kong smiled and said, "Miss, I want you to go to jail."
Xie Fu asked curiously: "Why do you ask me to do this?"
Butler Kong smiled and said, "I don't know, the young lady gave this special order. Maybe the young lady values you and wants you to be familiar with the affairs of the house so that you can be entrusted with important responsibilities in the future."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "If I am entrusted with an important task, Butler Kong, you will be laid off."
Butler Kong chuckled: "That's not necessarily true. There is a more important position in this mansion that is still vacant."
Xie Fu asked: "Where is it?"
Butler Kong smiled and said nothing. Naturally, there was a need for a son-in-law from the Tantai Mansion. Thinking about it, it would be a great thing for the young lady to marry Mr. Xie. He was the first to raise his hand in favor.
Butler Kong led the way towards the execution room.
Xie Fu asked: "Who was punished for what mistake?"
"The person who set the fire that day was caught, it was Du Ruquan."
Xie Fu was shocked when he heard this. Murder and arson were a great evil. He never expected that Mr. Du, a gentle man, would do such an evil thing. He asked, "Is there a mistake?"
"No, there are witnesses and physical evidence for the people captured by Yamen Liu Shen, and Du Ruquan also recruited them."
Xie Fu said in surprise: "Master Du belongs to the young lady, so there is no need to do this?"
"Du Ruquan has been spying on Miss for more than a day or two. He wants to cause big trouble for Miss, make her unable to live without him, entrust him with important responsibilities, and then take advantage of her."
Xie Fu sighed: "Beauty is a disaster!"
Butler Kong opened his eyes when he heard this.
Xie Fu said hurriedly: "I mean the crime is extremely heinous!"
