Demon Doctor Wild Concubine

  "Yes, Princess." Cuiyu responded and then continued: "Ning Meng is a maid in the courtyard of Yu Die young lady. She usually gets along with me quite well. Whenever she suffers grievances from Yu Die young lady, she will tell me about it to vent her emotions."

  Perhaps it was because she had heard about Shen Yunxi from Yuan Xiang's mouth the night before, at this time, she seemed to have less of the panic she felt when she saw her last night, and only saw that her expression was normal and her tone was calm.

  Shen Yunxi thought of the bruises on Ning Meng's back, legs and arms, and asked, "Does Yu Die often beat people?"

  Qiao Yu replied: "Yes, Miss Yu Die's temper is very violent, and she often vents her anger on the maids in her own room."

  Shen Yunxi nodded, the maidservant's grievances and beatings were not unusual in a large household. Thinking of Yu Die's temperament, she also thought of Jing Xian's overbearing and unreasonable appearance, and a sarcastic smile rose from the corner of her mouth. She didn't expect that the people surrounding Feng Qingchen would be so hypocritical and vulgar women.

  Then, seeing Qiao Yu stopped there, he rushed her and waved his hand to signal: "You continue."

  Qiao Yu continued: "Ning Meng is very kind and lively. But after she returned home last month, she seemed to have changed into a different person. I was worried when I saw her, so I asked her the reason. At first, she didn't want to say anything, but later under my repeated questioning, Ning Meng finally told me the whole story."

  "She said that her stepfather wanted to insult her because he resented her mother for being weak and sick, spending all the family's money, leaving him no way to go out and have fun, so at night, taking advantage of her deep sleep, he sneaked into her room wanting to insult her, fortunately she woke up, after a struggle, she beat her stepfather and finally escaped."

  However, this remark was overheard by Miss Yudie. Not only did she not sympathize with Ningmeng, but also ridiculed her and scolded her for not doing a good job in conveying the message, punishing her to go hungry for a day. Perhaps at that moment, Ningmeng was too agitated and angrily scolded Yudie, slapping Miss Yudie's face.

  At this point, Qiao Yu's voice was choked with sobs, and then she knelt down on the ground with a 'thud', her eyes shining with tears as she said to Shen Yunxi: "Your Highness, because of these things, although Ning Meng had thoughts of taking her own life, thinking of her sick mother at home who has no one to care for her, she will continue to struggle on and absolutely will not take her own life. So, please, Your Highness, you must help Ning Meng find the real killer and give Ning Meng justice."

  After finishing speaking, Qiao Yu immediately knelt down on the ground and sincerely begged.

  Shen Yunxi put down her chopsticks and whispered: "Qiaoyu, you get up first."

  Then she wiped the corner of her mouth and said to Qiao Yu, who had already stood up: "Don't worry, Ning Meng didn't die easily. I've made sure that the murderer won't get away with it."

  Having received Shen Yunxi's affirmative reply, Qiao Yu immediately burst into tears of joy, "Thank you, Princess Wang, thank you, Princess Wang."

  Shen Yunxi smiled lightly and asked, "Besides Yu Die, does Ning Mengke have any other enemies?"

  Qiao Yu lowered her head, furrowed her brow in thought, then shook her head and said: "That's all, I only know this much. Ning Meng is a kind person, she treats others well and generally doesn't hold grudges against anyone."

  Shen Yunxi slightly pursed her lips, nodded and said, "Mm, take me to the mansion again, let's get a better understanding of the situation from others." After finishing speaking, she stood up with Qiao Yu and left Suishou Xuan.

  Shuang'er also wanted to go, but was refused by Shen Yunxi. It was the same old phrase - even if she went, she wouldn't be of much help, and it would be better for her to stay in Su Yu Xuan.

  Wangfu Study

  Shen Yunxi was in the government office understanding various situations, while Feng Qingchen was in the study room diligently reviewing the memorials sent from the military, and on the left side chair not far from him sat another person.

  He is incomparably handsome.

  His eyebrows and eyes were full of a bewitching color, which even made the bright red cloud-patterned long gown on his body have a slightly seductive flavor.

  Although Feng Qingchen is also handsome and extraordinary, his taste is completely different from this person's. Feng Qingchen is too cold, while this person is too seductive.

  At this time, he was leaning lazily on the chair, his slender fingers tapping rhythmically on the table, while his narrow phoenix eyes were fixed unblinkingly on Feng Qingchen's body, full of playful meaning.

  Feng Qingchen took a deep breath, stopped reading the documents, glanced at him, and continued to review the memorials with a calm tone: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't look at me with that kind of gaze!"

  Upon hearing this, Jingxuan slightly sat up straight, a smile spreading across his face. "Guess what I heard in the capital today?" His tone was filled with teasing undertones.

  Feng Qing's eyebrows slightly raised, she finally put down the memorial and looked up at Jing Xuan with a hint of a smile: "You rushed back today just to come here and comfort me?"

  Jing Xuan laughed beautifully and said, "It's not easy to catch your weakness, it's rare that I came back today and heard something outside that made me excited. If I didn't come, I would really owe the person who spread this rumor."

  As he spoke, Jing Xuan raised an eyebrow and his gaze boldly swept towards Feng Qingchen's lower body. His words carried a hint of slyness as he said: "Eh, Chen, you wouldn't really have some problem down there, would you?"

  In an instant, Feng Qingchen's expression tightened, and a dangerous aura burst out of his eyes. Jing Xuan saw it and was startled, quickly withdrawing his gaze, and smiled brightly: "Never mind, never mind, I just asked casually. You don't have to answer."

  Although he spoke very seriously, his phoenix eyes still contained a hint of playfulness and did not have the slightest fear.

  Feng Qing's humming sound was light and gentle, while the danger in her eyes had already dissipated.

  Then, Jingxuan pursed his lips and said with an incredulous smile: "But who spread this out?"

  Feng Qingchen did not respond to his words, but instead asked coldly: "When are you going back?"

  Jing Xuan immediately widened his eyes and said, "I just sat down, didn't even have a sip of tea, and you're already in a hurry to drive me away!" Then, he pretended to be heartbroken and said, "Dust, it's only been a few days since we last met, and you treat me like this? Is it because you've found someone new that you've forgotten about me, an old friend?"

  It's a joke, he hasn't even asked what he wanted, how can he just leave like that?! Otherwise, wouldn't today's trip be in vain?

  Feng Qingchen's expression was cold and detached as he stared at Jing Xuan, his icy words spilling out of his mouth, "You really talk too much." So, there was no room for him here.

  Jing Xuan chuckled and said, "I'm not concerned about you?" Then, ignoring the cold arrow shot by Feng Qingchen, he asked himself, "Dust, the person who spread that rumor wouldn't be your newlywed Princess Wang, would it?"

  Feng Qing dust lazily leaned on the chair and said, "Nine out of ten it's her, apart from her, I couldn't think of anyone else who would have the nerve to spread such a rumor."

  Jing Xuan furrowed his brow as he looked at Feng Qingchen and said in a mysterious tone, "So you're saying that you still can't determine who it is?"
