He was stunned and denied it without thinking, "Of course it's not true!"
The Lord of Pingle County smiled faintly, "I didn't even say what it was, why did you deny it so quickly? It turns out it's true."
He's face was hot and he was speechless.
She could never learn to lie perfectly in front of Lord Pingle.
The Lord of Pingle County became very curious about the incident on New Year's Eve and had to get to the bottom of it.
"Alian, what is going on? I didn't believe it when I heard it. How could you, a person with such a strong self-esteem, do something like that?"
He's face almost turned the color of pig liver after being told by Pingle County Lord.
Recalling what happened that day, He seemed to be experiencing it all over again.
This feeling of being trapped in a nightmare and unable to escape made her close her eyes in pain.
Yinxiang saw that Mr. He looked in pain, with beads of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, and hurriedly said to County Master Pingle: "County Master, my master probably doesn't want to remember what happened that day anymore."
Pingle County Lord muttered: "Oh, I thought you were harmed by someone at that time."
He's heart moved and he opened his eyes.
Upon seeing this, the Lord of Pingle County said, "What, are you really being framed?"
He's thoughts were spinning rapidly.
That day, it was Fu Zhao who should have made a fool of herself, but it turned out to be herself.
She already had a vague suspicion in her mind that the person who harmed her was either Fu Zhao or Cheng Yushu.
As for Cheng Yushu, she knew it very well, but he was just a poor guy living under someone else's roof.
And she promised that Cheng Yushu would make her wishes come true, and Cheng Yushu had no reason to harm her.
The only possible person is Fu Zhao!
It's just that she doesn't know yet where Fu Zhao made a move.
Her eyes were filled with angry fire. Fu Zhao had made her look like this, and she would definitely not let it go!
Pingle County Lord smiled lightly, "Why, do you know who harmed you?"
He paused and nodded seriously.

The Lord of Pingle County and the He family spied for a while and were about to leave.
After all, she told her family that she was going out to buy things today, and it would definitely not be good if she stayed out for too long.
Now her reputation has become extremely dark, and she cannot let her reputation get any worse.
Otherwise, Dong Xiu would definitely not look at her again.
She is very familiar with the He family and can walk out on her own without the help of servants to lead the way.
As soon as he walked out of He's courtyard, Pingle County Lord saw a man coming towards him from a distance.
Her steps never stopped.
She is the head of the county, so when the other party sees her, he should make way for her.
She walked over with her head held high.
When he got closer, Pingle County Lord recognized the man opposite him.
It was Song Ren, He's cousin. He loved to be a womanizer and the most unmotivated person.
Because of his various actions, his first wife was furious to death.
The Song family couldn't control it anymore, so they sent Song Ren to the He family, hoping that Mr. He and Mrs. He could control Song Ren well.
The Lord of Pingle County looked at Song Ren for a few times before preparing to leave Song Ren.
Talking to such people made her feel dirty.
But Song Ren didn't plan to leave just like that.
He heard that a county lord came to the mansion, so he came over eagerly.
He has never seen what the county governor is like.
But now that he saw the real person, he was disappointed.
"Tch, that's what he looks like." Song Ren didn't hide his contempt in his eyes.
Moreover, he also found out clearly that the county lord's reputation was ruined and there was no way he could make any splash.
He simply walked away.
At this time, the people waiting behind Pingle County Lord were so frightened that their legs were weak.
According to the temperament of Pingle County Lord, how could he be angry? But he couldn't turn the entire He family upside down?
Maybe, even the servants like them who are accompanying them will suffer!
Those servants didn't dare to show off their dignity, and they just hunched their necks and acted like quails.
But to their surprise, instead of being angry, Pingle County Lord smiled.
Her smile was so weird that the servants couldn't help but shudder.
After He heard what happened here, he hurried over with his people.
She was worried that according to the temperament of Pingle County Lord, such a good day as the second day of the Lunar New Year might lead to bloodshed.
But unexpectedly, Lord Pingle was in a good mood after being ridiculed by Song Ren.
He asked suspiciously: "Aren't you... angry?"
Pingle County Lord covered his mouth and laughed twice. The laughter was unpleasant, "Why am I angry? Just now, neither of us could think of a way. Now, we have a way."
He became more and more confused, "Song Ren? How can he help?"
"He is of great use." Pingle County Lord blinked mysteriously.

When Fu Zhao and Chen Feng returned to the Hou Mansion, it was already evening, and they had a simple dinner.
In the next few days, when guests came, Fu Zhao would go to Mrs. Chen's place to accompany the guests.
When there were no guests coming over, she would stay in the house and do some girly stuff.
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, the Hou Mansion held a flower-viewing banquet in the name of the plum blossoms in full bloom in the plum grove.
Almost every year, the Hou Mansion holds a flower-viewing banquet on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, so Qian was very good at preparing it.
Fu Zhao got up early. Since it was a flower appreciation party and she was the host, she wore a plum red knee-length gown and a plum blossom hairpin on her bun to suit the occasion.
Liangsui came in from the outside and couldn't help but muttered, "Mother Qiu has gone somewhere. When everyone is busy, she is the only one who can't be seen."
Si Qi remained silent.
When Mother Qiu first came, Siqi wanted to respect her because of her status.
But these days, what Mother Qiu has done is really something that Siqi cannot respect.
Si Qi suddenly figured out that the reason Hong Yue would become like that was because Mother Qiu had something to do with it.
Fu Zhao looked at himself in the mirror and said calmly: "Then leave her alone, as long as she doesn't cause trouble, don't point fingers at her to help."
Liangsui responded with a dejected "Yes."
Fu Zhao thought of something and asked: "Does Mother Qiu go out often? Do you know what she does when she goes out?"
Liangsui and Siqi shook their heads together, and Siqi said: "Mother Qiu leaves early and comes back late, and I don't know what she is doing. Why don't you wait until tomorrow and follow me quietly to take a look?"
The more Fu Zhao thought about it, the weirder he felt.
Mother Qiu must have gone out to meet someone.
Fu Zhao felt something bad in his heart, "There's no need for tomorrow, you can send someone to look for it now."
"Yes, I'll go right now." Siqi didn't dare to delay, and immediately went out to find a clever little girl with quick legs, and went to the Marquis Mansion to find Mother Qiu.
Mother Qiu, who is being talked about by Fu Zhao and others, is in the Plum Grove, where Chen Feng used to practice swordplay every day.
