Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hu Yu looked at Wei Meng and smiled. “No, we are here to stay with her forever.”
They were not seeking refuge. They were Liu Sanniang’s house spirits.
Wei Meng’s eyes widened, as if she could not believe it. She had only lived here for a few days and already felt very embarrassed. How thick-skinned they were to stay here forever.
It had to be said that Wei Meng’s cooking was not bad.
The pot of chicken soup was also extremely fragrant. The herbs inside were all nourishing. All of them only wanted Liu Sanniang to drink it and recover quickly.
Even the gluttonous Hu Yu did not look at the chicken soup.
Moreover, Chu Yan would not give it to anyone at all. In his eyes, Liu Sanniang was the most important.
It was dark again.
Although it was not necessarily safe to stay in the princess’s mansion, the officials were still willing to send their daughters to the mansion. At least with Xia Qiluo around, it would be safer at night. Moreover, they all stayed together. If anything happened, the chances of them being harmed would be greatly reduced.
Xia Qiluo returned to the princess’s mansion from the crown prince’s mansion. She looked at the young ladies with a cold expression.
“Stay in the house tonight. Don’t come out. 1 have something to do and need to go out tonight. I’ll set up an array formation outside the house. As long as you don’t come out, you’ll be safe.”
Although Xia Hongyuan had told Liu Sanniang that Liu Shun s mother had left long ago, he felt that there must be a reason why Liu Sanniang suddenly asked about this. Therefore, he found Liu Shun’s mother’s residence. In order not to alert Liu Shun s mother, he asked Xia Qiluo to go there. If there was anything strange about Liu Shun’s mother, Xia Qiluo could deal with it.
Xia Qiluo decided to go and take a look at night.
However, she had to protect these young ladies well just in case. She set up an array formation outside the mansion and went out.
Xia Qiluo was not around, but Xu Qing and Xu Ran were.
Xia Qiluo did not bring a single soldier with her. She was dressed in red and her body flashed past like the wind. Ever since she abandoned her emotions, her cultivation had increased greatly. In her opinion, the evil man was just a rat on the run.
If he dared to appear in front of her, she could kill him in a second.
It was just that she had yet to find this evil rat.
Xia Qiluo landed on the roof of a courtyard. She sat cross-legged and sensed carefully. She had burned that evil rat again. If there was anything unusual, she would be able to sense it.
She felt a faint aura that seemed to be not far away. Xia Qiluo came down from the roof and walked in the direction of the courtyard. She entered the kitchen and saw some cloth and silk that were half-burnt.
There was the sound of footsteps outside. Xia Qiluo was holding a piece of cloth and bumped into Liu Shun’s mother. When Liu Shun’s mother saw Xia Qiluo, she was so frightened that her face turned pale. The basket in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.
Xia Qiluo looked at Liu Shun’s mother coldly. “As expected, you’re the one causing trouble.”
Liu Shun’s mother looked at Xia Qiluo in a daze and it took her a while to come back to her senses. Xia Qiluo had already squatted down and flipped the basket. There was some charred cloth and silk inside. Xia Qiluo’s expression turned cold.
Liu Shun’s mother suddenly hugged Xia Qiluo and shouted. “Son, run!”
A ruthless expression flashed across Xia Qiluo’s face. She tried to push Liu Shun’s mother away, but Liu Shun s mother hugged her very tightly. She was not afraid of death. She only knew that if her son was caught this time, he would really die.
Xia Qiluo grabbed Liu Shun’s mother s hand and twisted it before pushing her away. She flashed out. The courtyard was quiet, and there was only cotton and cloth scattered in the main hall.
Xia Qiluo returned to the kitchen, grabbed Liu Shun’s mother, and left quickly. Liu Shun’s mother’s arm was broken, and she looked like she was about to die. However, there was a smile on her face, as if she was satisfied that she had protected her son.
When Xia Qiluo returned to the mansion, she immediately asked the servants to prepare the medicine. “Keep her alive. Her son is that stinky rat.”
Liu Shun’s mother’s breathing was weak. When she heard Xia Qiluo’s voice, she said weakly, “You can’t catch my son.”
Xia Qiluo took out a bottle, poured out a pill, and stuffed it into Liu Shun’s mother’s mouth. “I can’t catch him, but 1 can catch you. This is poison. Even if your son saves you, without my antidote, you will still die.”
Liu Shun’s mother looked a little terrified. She looked around and shouted. “Don’t come out, don’t come out, my son. If I die, so be it. Don’t come out. I want you to live well.”
Xia Qiluo’s expression was cold and her tone was filled with disgust. “Your son is neither human nor ghost. He should have died long ago. What’s the use of such a kind of living?”
Liu Shun’s mother glared at Xia Qiluo angrily. “It’s all your fault. If not for you, my son wouldn’t have died. You’re the most despicable. When he was useful, you let him live. When he became useless, you killed him.”
Xia Qiluo said coldly, “Your son is already dead. Letting him die was the right thing to do. I don’t know how you brought him back to life, but that’s not right.”
Liu Shun’s mother shed tears. She did not want to talk to Xia Qiluo. She looked around and shouted. “Don’t come out to save me. Don’t!”
Xia Qiluo frowned. “Shut her mouth and lock her up.”
Xia Qiluo shouted into the air. “I don’t care where you’re hiding. Even if you have the ability to save your mother, you can only watch her die slowly. If you want to save her, you have to show up in front me because I have the antidote. You’re the one who committed evil. As long as you surrender yourself, I can spare your mother’s life.”
After saying that, Xia Qiluo returned to her room. With her around, these young ladies felt at ease.
It was almost dawn. Another night had passed.
Liu Shun’s mother was locked up in an abandoned woodshed. There were guards guarding her, but they did not know that Liu Shun was already beside his mother. He hugged his mother, and they disappeared together.
The guard reported it to Xia Qiluo.
Xia Qiluo only said calmly, “If he wants his mother to live, he can only come and beg me. If he doesn’t come, I’ll catch him sooner or later.”
Whether he came or not, Xia Qiluo did not care. If he came, she would kill the two rats together. If he did not come, she would kill them one by one.
The sky was already bright. The young ladies in the princess’s mansion went out one by one and were helped into the carriages by their maidservants..
