The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

569 Profile (3)

Shen Yijia immediately pulled a long face and imitated Mo Yuan’s voice. “Heh, if you didn’t say anything, why would Fan protect you with his life? I think you’ve been by his side for a few months. Have you forgotten what your mission is?”

“I didn’t,” Cheng Xiuying screamed.

“Then tell me what your mission is.”

Cheng Xiuying hurriedly said, “I got the evidence that Song Jingchen secretly harmed an official of the imperial court back then, as well as the evidence that he stayed by Fan Mingyuan’s side to sow discord between the Song and Xiao families.”

In the eyes of many people, Fan Mingyuan was also a member of the Song family.

With that, Cheng Xiuying begged, “He saved me because he was afraid that a criminal like me would die. Aunt, believe me, I really didn’t say anything…”

Secretly harming the officials of the Imperial Court? She was probably referring to that Hong fellow and County Magistrate Cao.

Although Song Jingchen was indeed involved in this matter and the two officials had died at the hands of Rooster and the others, the two of them had already committed crimes.

Even if Song Jingchen didn’t kill them, they wouldn’t be able to escape death if they did anything.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips. “Oh? You didn’t reveal who Master and I are?”

There was only fear left in Cheng Xiuying’s heart. Coupled with the effect of the incense, she was in adrift. Without thinking, she said, “I don’t even know what Aunt looks like. How can I know who Aunt is? As for Master, I’ve never even seen him before.”

Shen Yijia frowned. So useless?

Song Jingchen was also a little disappointed. From her words, he could tell that the person in charge of these people was a woman who didn’t show her face. As for the person behind this, she had never appeared.

He wrote another line of words.

Shen Yijia pressed the button. “What about the Fragrant Teahouse? You’ve been there for so long. Don’t tell me you don’t even know about it?”

If this person couldn’t even say this, Fan Mingyuan would have taken the arrow for nothing.

“Fragrant Teahouse…” Cheng Xiuying muttered,” No, I didn’t say anything. I really didn’t say anything…”

As soon as she finished speaking, the cloth over her eyes was pulled off.

When she saw the person in front of her, Cheng Xiuying’s pupils constricted. “You, you…”

“Are you surprised?” Shen Yijia bared her teeth and waved at her.

“How could it be you?” Cheng Xiuying muttered in disbelief.

“I think you should be happy to see us. Otherwise, when you return to Fragrant Teahouse, I don’t think you’ll just be faced with a simple questioning.” Song Jingchen handed the rice paper in his hand to South Wind and asked him to burn it.

The reason why he tricked Cheng Xiuying first was to prevent this person from lying to confuse him when he asked directly.

Now, he knew what this person knew.

It had to be said that Song Jingchen’s words hit the nail on the head. Seeing that she wasn’t in Fragrant Teahouse, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Thinking of her sisters who had been tortured to death, Cheng Xiuying shivered. However, she gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll do anything…”

“How does it feel to have the Heart-Devouring Poison act up?” Shen Yijia interrupted her.

Cheng Xiuying was stunned. “How do you have the antidote?”

“Don’t worry about it.” Shen Yijia waved her hand. “Even if you go back now, your master won’t let you off. Tell us what you know, and we can provide you with the antidote. How about that? You won’t lose out, right?”

Cheng Xiuying hesitated.

Seeing that it was getting late, Song Jingchen didn’t want to waste any more time on her. He looked at South Wind and Thirty Thousand and said, “Go ahead and interrogate her. Remember to ask her to draw a map of Fragrant Teahouse.”

After instructing them, he brought Shen Yijia back to her room to rest.

Early the next morning, South Wind replied.

They were not wrong. There was indeed a secret space inside the Fragrant Teahouse, but it was underground, and the entrance was in those small lofts.

However, because she could not move freely inside, a detailed map wasn’t available.

As for herself, her original name was Chen Duo’er. She had been brought to the capital from Chenyang Prefecture five years ago. She had not been kidnapped, but sold by her family.

In addition, they were training separately, so she didn’t know Feng Manman.

Some of them stayed in the Fragrant Teahouse to receive guests, while others were sent out to be placed beside various officials. They were either concubines or slaves.

Everyone who entered would first be fed the Heart-Devouring Poison. They needed an antidote every month.

However, for people like them who left the Fragrant Teahouse, in order to avoid being exposed, they would usually be given three pills at a time. She had just finished hers.

It was originally the day to get the antidote. Unexpectedly, Fan Mingyuan brought her out of Anyang County. The people who came to deliver the medicine to her realized that something was wrong, so they chased after her.

Chen Duo’er even explained that at first, a steward was in charge of them. Around the beginning of the year, it was changed to a woman. When the woman appeared, she wore a veil and only asked them to call her Aunt.

However, from the voice, it could be seen that the woman was not old. She was about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Song Jingchen wasn’t surprised by this.

Chen Duo’er didn’t know Feng Manman, but that didn’t mean that there was nothing wrong with Feng Manman.

Thinking of how terrifying the Heart-Devouring Poison was, Shen Yijia was worried about Yuan Yuwan and Xiao Ruoshui and brought Mo Yuan to the Xiao family.
