Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as Xie Qiao finished speaking, the maid imdiately knelt down. “Master! I didn’t an to hide it. I-It was the young lady who didn’t allow to speak!”
She knelt down, but Xie Qiao did not pay much attention to her. Instead, she looked at the ghoul.
The words of a ghoul were sotis more truthful than what a living person said.
That ghoul had not spoken to a living person for a long ti, so she was quite excited at this mont. When she saw Xie Qiao looking at her, she imdiately said, “I know! That young lady was a Commandery Princess. At that ti, the servant called her that! They sat here for almost fifteen minutes
before leaving, In between, they said a lot of things and even scolded soone!”
“This humble servant accompanied the Commandery Princess to scold a village woman. She said that she was dying soon. She also said that the scholar would divorce her sooner or later! She even called her a slut. There were many terrible things like that!”
“There’s no need to elaborate on the scolding, Tell sothing else that you know,” Xie Qiao said. “I’ve troubled you this ti. If you have any wishes, I can help you fulfill them.”
“Really?! I want you to talk to that person in the alley over there. Her na’s Liu Gui. Every ti she pretends to fetch water, she would spit a mouthful of phlegm into the well after she finishes. It really disgusts . Please tell her not to do it again. It’s not easy for to find a well…” the ghoul said with
so grievance.
Xie Qiao nodded with mixed feelings.
It was quite hygienic.
The ghoul was even happier. “The young lady you ntioned said sothing before she left. She said that she was very angry that a village girl could step on her head. Then, this servant said that perhaps the village girl was lucky, so she might as well find an expert to look at her fate. This servant
introduced a fraud and said that he was extrely spiritual.”
“Who is it?” Xie Qiao asked.
“Tt was said that it was a Taoist master nad Liuming who could concoct many dicinal pills and read fortunes. It was very accurate. However, he’s in the suburbs. After that, they left.” The ghoul said everything she knew.
After she finished speaking, Xie Qiao looked at Huan’er.
Huan’er had never ntioned before that she had brought the Commandery Princess out of the city.
“You left the city? Who was the Taoist Master Liuming you were looking for?” Xie Qiao asked directly.
Hearing her words, Huan’er was so scared that her face turned pale. She looked at her in disbelief, then, she cried, “We were going to find the Taoist master. I heard from my good friend that there’s a very powerful Taoist master outside the city. Under his guidance, he even made a small fortune. I wanted
to comfort the young lady, but I didn’t know what to do. I suddenly thought of the Taoist master…
“I think that even if the master couldn’t change the fate of that village girl, as an expert, he must have a way to comfort her. Perhaps he could even tell the young lady’s fortune in marriage…”
“And then? Why was your young lady frightened and lost her soul?” Xie Qiao asked again.
She was probably frightened.
“W-We hired a carriage. First, we went to find my lover. His na is Bao Yi, but he didn’t expect that we were going out of the city alone. The coachman was old and timid… It was quite late, and he actually had evil thoughts and robbed my young lady. At that ti, he still wanted to do… that kind of thing.
Iwas afraid that sothing would happen to the young lady, so I desperately used a rock to knock Bao Yi unconscious…”
The coachman was old, so he did not dare to resist.
After Bao Yi fell, they took their belongings back, but there were so marks on the young lady’s body.
Her clothes were also torn. Worried that others would find out, the young lady told her to keep her mouth shut.
Moreover, at that ti, the young lady was very angry. After Bao Yi fell, she even lifted a rock and smashed him twice. At that ti, she thought… Bao Yi was smashed to death.
Then, on the way back, the young lady kept trembling and said that she had killed soone.
However, she really did not dare to reveal that. At that ti, she thought that Bao Yi was dead. Moreover, if the Princess found out that she was the one who instigated the Commandery Princess to leave the city, then… she would lose her life!
