Chapter 190 The adopted son you picked up will destroy your whole family (25)
Nan Xian fed the pill into Gu Cheng's mouth without blinking, with a calm expression: "Then you want him and I to be burned to ashes tonight?
I haven't told you yet, what's going on? Why is it so painful when the poison takes effect? If I don't come tonight, will what I see tomorrow be his body?"
Qixi used the newly learned words and whispered: [Ah, yes, yes, yes!]
Nan Xian frowned: "What did you say?"
Qixi changed the topic with a guilty conscience: [...Host, this is really unexpected. In the original plot, although Gu Cheng failed to plant the poison for the first time, it was painful, but it was not fatal.
But I just checked and found out that I was absent-minded when I was planting poisons today. One poisonous weed contained an extra fingernail dose. As a result, the poisons were not mutually exclusive, which is why it became so serious!]
Nan Xian's expression was solemn. After giving Gu Cheng a panacea, he slowly guided the true energy into his body to sort out his warm and burned tendons.
There were thunderstorms outside the window, and occasionally lightning pierced the night sky, illuminating two pale-faced people leaning against each other inside the house.
Nan Xian passed out due to excessive internal energy.
At dawn, the heavy rain stopped for a while, and then started crackling again.
The entire Xiang Mansion was shrouded in torrential humidity, and the flowers that the flower shearer had carefully repaired and maintained yesterday were once again destroyed and lost their color.
Early in the morning, a group of women and servants braved the rain and went to the back garden to carry expensive flowers in a hurry.
One of the servants suddenly screamed and fell to the ground in fright.
"There are dead people, dead... dead people!"
A group of housewives and servants came over after hearing the sound. They saw that it had rained heavily last night and the soft soil was washed away by the heavy rain, and a corpse covered in mud washed out.
Someone identified the female corpse as Xiaohuan, the maid of the Twelve Aunt who committed suicide by drowning herself in the lake.
Revealing a body early in the morning is not a good sign.
Xiang Kuan's mood in the past few days was as bad as the continuous rain! His unsmiling face looked gloomier than usual, which frightened the little boy who went in to deliver the message.
"Master, Master, he asked Shan Ming to send back the two maids sent by Third Aunt."
This was an expected result. Xiang Kuan didn't even frown and asked with a stern face, "What do you say to Zheng'er? If he doesn't like these two maids, just give him two more that he likes!"
Zheng'er didn't kill anyone this time, which shows that he doesn't exclude Na Tongfang.
Also, Zheng'er was already weak last year and has reached the age where he is curious about the love affairs between men and women.
"Master," the young man stammered, "the young master said that he would only wear wedding clothes once in his life, and he would not accept a married woman or a concubine. From now on, if a woman other than Miss Nan steps into his yard, he will...
"
"What does he mean?" Xiang Kuan frowned.
The boy looked embarrassed, craning his neck and repeating Xiang Yunzheng's original words: "The young master said he ran away from home, so you can only find his body... his body..."
"Shut up!" Xiang Kuan shouted coldly, then walked towards Broken Yuxuan.
The boy covered his mouth in fear, and when he saw Xiang Kuan walking out, he hurriedly followed him, holding an umbrella.
Passing by the back garden, he saw the skeleton of the maid rushed out. Xiang Kuan's face changed slightly, and he thought of the noble lady from a wealthy family whom he had fallen in love with from the first sight - Shen Fangxin.
The Linping Marquis Mansion was not the original target of his accusation.
If the Marquis of Linping had the good sense not to oppose him and marry Shen Fangxin to the Xiang Mansion, the Marquis of Linping Mansion would never have had the disaster of being implicated in the nine clans, and the position of the Governor's Wife would also belong to Shen Fangxin.
It's a pity that the Marquis of Linping was so unreasonable that he refused to marry Shen Fangxin to him, insulting him as a eunuch. Even if he raised a daughter, he would never marry her to him.
He was humiliated in court, investigated in private, and finally found out about him and Daliang.
Force him to take action!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xiang Kuan's gloomy face for many days. If Linping Marquis could obstruct it when he was alive, what could he do if he was dead?
Not only did Shen Fangxin not know the truth of the matter, but she was also grateful for serving him. Even if he was no different from an eunuch, wouldn't his daughter, the majestic Marquis of Linping, kneel on the couch and serve her with her mouth?
Xiaohuan's body was wrapped in white cloth and carried out of the house, but the stench in the back garden persisted and became even stronger.
The fragrance of flowers mixed with an indescribable rotten smell, which was disgusting.
