Chapter 69: A Debt of Blood Can't Be Repaid with Money

  Liu Dainai couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, leading a group of maids into Liu Fu's courtyard. However, upon entering the courtyard, she was slightly taken aback, not expecting to see Liu Rong standing right there. When Liu Rong saw the crowd, she too looked surprised and perplexed.

  Before Liu Rong could speak, Old Mrs. Liu gave a signal to Qiao'er, who immediately ordered the coarse maidservants she had brought along to surround Liu Rong, as if they were afraid she would run away.

  "Where's Lian'er's body?" Before Liu Dainai could speak, Qiaoer was the first to loudly question Liuying.

  "In the house."

  "Third Miss, you have a heart of stone! You clearly don't understand medicine, yet you still want to show off and ended up killing Lian'er with your own hands! Even if you are the third miss of the manor, the eldest mistress will not cover for you!"

  Qiao'er looked at Liu Rong with a cold smile, but directly changed what Qiu'er said from "forced to death" to "medically killed". Forcing someone to death is something without evidence and vague, while medically killing someone is a real crime!

  This is several hundred times more serious than being forced to death!

  Mrs. Li's face turned ugly, wanting to step forward and scold her, but unexpectedly Old Lady Liu spoke up before she did, with no intention of making things right: "Rong Jie, I had warned you early on that if you don't understand medicine, then don't take charge arbitrarily. Now look at the situation you've caused, how can it be resolved?"

  "Today's matter, for the sake of Wending Houfu's dignity and also because I'm heartbroken that you're so disobedient, we won't send you to see the official. However, in order to prevent you from making similar mistakes again and tarnishing Wending Houfu's reputation, punishment is necessary!"

  "Tell someone to tie up the third young lady and send her to Huang Jue Temple immediately. Without my order, she is not allowed to come back!" Old Lady Liu said to the housekeeper beside her without waiting for Liu Rong to speak.

  But to say that Liu Fu had made such a big mistake. They were all just locked at home and not allowed to contact anyone, Liu Rong only said a few words, everything was almost out of thin air, but they wanted to lock her directly in the Huang Jue Temple where outsiders couldn't see her and make her suffer!

  And the command is never to return! What does this represent? This is basically calling Liu Rong a young age, accompanying the green lamp and ancient Buddha for a lifetime, wandering in the temple, suffering from coldness and bitterness.

  Grandma Liu said with a smile that grew bigger and bigger, her self-satisfaction was written all over her face.

  Mrs. Li's face turned increasingly ugly as she wanted to step forward and speak up for Liu Rong, but was stopped by Qiao'er, and at that moment, the people in front of her, behind her, left and right were all Liu Dainai's, leaving her no chance to move forward.

  At Liu Dainai's command, several sturdy-looking maidservants stepped forward to take Liu Rong away.

  "Wait!" Finally spoke up Liu Rong, who had been silent all along.

  She only saw her looking at Liu Dainai, with a calm expression, and if she looked closely, there was still that hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.

  Liu Dainai looked at Liu Rong: "Do you have anything else to say? Autumn has already told us about your poisoning of Lian'er, and in the manor, not only is the young lady's life precious, but also the lives of those maidservants and young servants are precious. Just because you're a young lady, it doesn't mean that if you harm someone, you won't be punished!"

  Old Lady Liu said so, but it instantly resonated with all the servant girls and mothers present.

  Those sturdy maids who were about to take Liu Rong away, each grabbed one of her hands with one hand, ready to drag her away directly.

  Liu Rong stood there, staring steadily at Liu Dà Nǎi. Before these people took her away, she opened her mouth and said: "Who said I killed someone! Which eye of yours saw it? Mother said that Qiū'ér said I treated Lián'ér's illness to death, please ask mother to call out Qiū'ér and confront me!"

  Liu Rong said with a slight pause: "Since I, Liu Rong, started practicing medicine, there has never been a case where my patient died!"

  Liu Rong's words caused several sturdy maids to pause momentarily, all of them looking at Old Madam Liu.

  After all, what Liu Rong said to Dong Er when she took care of Liu Jie's illness had some influence on the Wen Ding Hou Fu. Many maids still admired Liu Rong very much.

  This admiration, although it won't provide any substantial help, but in this small detail, will slightly lean towards Liu Rong.

  If it were someone else who had done something like this, they would probably have been taken away directly, rather than being given the opportunity to speak with Liu Rong as is happening now.

  But Liu Dà Nǎi's face fell, her eyes scanning the surroundings, wanting to call out Qiū ér to vent her frustrations, but not seeing Qiū ér anywhere, as if she had vanished into thin air. Her expression turned ugly in an instant: "Qiǎo ér, where is Qiū ér?"

  Qiao Er was also stunned: "Isn't she from the most advanced courtyard?"

  Qiao'er suddenly looked as if she had thought of something, and turned to Liu Rong: "Tell me, where did you take Autumn? Are you afraid that she will reveal your evil deeds, so you hid her?"

  Liu Rong couldn't help but laugh: "Qiao Er's imagination is really good."

  "What I wrote earlier about killing people with medicine will be used against me again!"

  Liu Rong said, pausing slightly, and suddenly looked at Liu Dainai: "Mother, if it weren't for the fact that I was exposed as a murderer today, it would be Cui'er who has been slandering me all along! At that time, please mother, do justice for me! Get rid of this liar and don't let her tarnish the reputation of our Wendinghou Mansion!"

  Qiao's face changed suddenly! She couldn't help but become frightened!

  Liu Dainai's face also changed, and for a moment she had no response.

  Mrs. Li, who had no chance to interrupt, was secretly delighted and exclaimed with joy.

  "Old Madame, there must be rules in the mansion. First, let's not discuss whether this matter is true or false. If it's true that Qiao'er framed Third Miss, she should indeed be punished." Taking advantage of Qiao'er's distraction, Li Mama stepped forward to help Liu Rong: "Otherwise, if other maids frame Eldest and Second Miss in the future, what would happen?"

  "Nothing can be accomplished without norms or standards!"

  Qiao'er couldn't help but glare fiercely at Li Mama, but Li Mama was completely ignoring her.

  Liu Rong couldn't help but laugh: "What's this, Mother? Is this what you call being fair? Are you going to be too afraid to respond now?"

  "Originally in mother's heart, I am not as important as a personal maid!"

  Some things, although they are obvious to everyone, many people will not admit them in order to save face and maintain a facade. What Liu Rong said just now is exactly the kind of thing that Madame Liu doesn't want to be exposed.

  At the moment, Grandma Liu reluctantly agreed, worried that something would go wrong and her trusted arm would be lost! Not agreeing, however, would also make it impossible to maintain a good face.

  She looked down at Liu Rong, only to see him smiling but not quite smiling, as if mocking her! Originally coming to find Liu Rong for trouble, she was now extremely annoyed and felt suffocated in her heart, unable to express it.
