Chapter 168 Don't Make Me Pay

"Then……"

Xia Xintong bit her lip.

"Xia Yuwei said it was too dangerous to go find the bandits, so I asked her to go with her guards."

Su Jiuyue:……

"No one left for self-defense?"

Lin Qingqing asked in confusion.

"Don't you hate her? Why do you send people to protect her?"

Xia Xintong glanced at Lin Qingqing.

"Don't you know? No matter what happens between her and me, we are both related by my father's blood!"

"I hate her, but I hate her mother even more! If it weren't for them, how could Dad and Mom be so estranged from each other now?"

"But I'm not stupid. Dad allowed her to be my maid because he wanted to ease the relationship between mother and me. If something happens to her in my hands, wouldn't it make the relationship even more strained?"

Lin Qingqing suddenly realized.

"Tsk tsk, it turns out that besides being a love-brained person, you're not completely stupid..."

Xia Xintong: "Love-brained?"

Lin Qingqing chuckled. This was a new term that Yueyue taught her!

It’s just right for you!

However, she was too lazy to tell her this and waved her hand to urge her.

"Don't ask meaningless questions. Then what? You really didn't leave any guards for yourself?"

Xia Xintong's face froze.

"I only brought a few guards with me when I went out. I thought that the slave girl would not be out for long, and what could I do waiting in the inn? So I assigned them all to her. Is there any problem?"

Lin Qingqing: “6…”

It's just like Yueyue said, this idiot is so ostentatious and has no sense of vigilance.

You deserve to be caught!

Xia Xintong looked a little unhappy and frowned.

"Who knew that the slave girl didn't come back for several days after she left! I still had things to do, so I was too lazy to wait."

"Who would have thought that as soon as I walked out of Lai Fu Inn, someone covered my head. When I opened my eyes, I was kidnapped."

Speaking of this, tears welled up in Xia Xintong's eyes again.

Lin Qingqing walked up to her awkwardly and patted her shoulder.

"It's okay. I rescued you."

Xia Xintong sniffed again.

"In the first two days after I was arrested, someone kept beating me, twisting my arms, and stabbing me with needles. I thought I was going to be beaten to death..."

Xia Xintong rolled up her sleeves as she spoke.

There were indeed some bruises on his hands.

It should be because of the medication. There is no inflammation and there are signs of improvement.

Su Jiuyue’s eyes darkened.

"When I found you, I didn't see any signs of you being abused."

There was also a flash of doubt in Xia Xintong's eyes.

"I was blindfolded the whole time and didn't know exactly what was going on."

"But one day, a man came and seemed to be their eldest brother. When he saw me, he got very angry with them."

"After that day, the person who tortured me never came again, and they changed their attitude towards me."

"I learned from Xiao Lao Er that it turned out that their eldest brother had seen me in the Divine Capital and knew that I was a princess, so he was wary of me."

"I asked them to let me go but they refused. They were afraid that if I left, they would find someone to deal with them, so they kept me imprisoned. I thought I would never be able to go back in this lifetime, wuwu..."

As Xia Xintong spoke, she became overwhelmed with sadness and started crying again.

Su Jiuyue pinched her eyebrows, probably understanding.

But she still had a doubt.

"So you haven't seen Xia Yuwei since you were kidnapped?"

Then how did Xia Yuwei go crazy? How did she get sold to the dental clinic?

Xia Xintong's tears were filled with hatred!

"If that slut hadn't come back with her guards, how could I have been tied up? Where did I see her?"

Lin Qingqing exclaimed.

"That's a coincidence. You came to Yishan County, and she also came to Yishan County."

Xia Xintong stood up immediately after hearing this!

"Where is she! I must teach her a lesson! She's getting brave!"

Lin Qingqing curled her lips.

"She was sold to a widower by a human trafficker. She is now in the Su Mansion. I rescued her."

"I spent ten taels of silver to redeem him, remember to pay me back. Also, the man has gone mad, remember to pay the doctor's medical bills..."

Xia Xintong worked hard to extract the key information from Lin Qingqing's nonsense.

"Human tooth? Widow? Crazy???"

How is this going!

Wasn't she ordered to find someone?

How did he end up in Yishan County and be sold to human traffickers?

Su Jiuyue saw that she really didn't know the truth and didn't ask any more questions.

"You should take a rest first. I will go to see your maid tomorrow. If you have anything to say, we can talk tomorrow."

Xia Xintong was indeed stimulated and nodded.

She just wants to sleep now! Tomorrow she will ask the government to teach those bastards a lesson!

Lin Qingqing followed Su Jiuyue out of the room.

Asked Su Jiuyue with some doubts.

"Yueyue, so Xia Yuwei's madness has nothing to do with Xia Xintong, and she didn't even know she was betrayed?"

Su Jiuyue nodded and said lightly.

"I'm afraid so. There's something fishy about Xia Yuwei's case."

Both are children of Prince Xia, one was captured and the other went crazy.

They had to deal with all this trouble.

What bad luck.

Lin Qingqing curled her lips.

"How about letting the government investigate? I have to give my uncle an explanation..."

Su Jiuyue thought of the profit-seeking and incompetent county magistrate and closed her eyes.

"Forget it, I'll wait until tomorrow when I go to the county magistrate's house to see him."

The county magistrate's child was sick, so he took leave and left the yamen to He Bi.

The whole government office was filled with chaos and foul smells.

I don't know if I can count on it...

Su Jiuyue sighed.

"Go to sleep first and we'll talk tomorrow."

Lin Qingqing said, and went back to her room.

Seeing that it would take some time before daylight came, he dived into the space again.

First, he used his gratitude points to buy top-quality military daggers, preparing to give one to each person sent by the emperor to deliver the decree.

As a farewell gift.

Thinking that Feiyufu’s identity must be special, he picked out two sets of armor to protect against slashing and stabbing.

One for him and one for Brother Xian.

Although this cost her a lot of gratitude points, she felt it was worth it.

It's worth it to use these in exchange for their careful protection of brother Xian along the way.

After buying these, she didn’t want to practice anymore. Thinking that Su Xian was leaving, she felt very depressed.

Just cover your head and sleep in this space!

I didn't leave the space until the alarm rang.

I finally released some of my emotions!

In her previous life, she liked to sleep when she felt emotional, and she would feel better after waking up.

Early the next morning, Feiyufu really came to pick up Su Xian.

The Su family members went out to see them off.

Su Jiuyue gave them the gifts and asked them to be careful on the way.

After all, they are from the Imperial City Bureau and they still have some vision.

As soon as you see the dagger, you know it is no ordinary item!

Ms. Su was so generous that their hands holding the daggers were hot!

This dagger is so exquisite, the price must be very beautiful!

Intellectually they didn't dare to take such a valuable thing, but they really couldn't let it go.

Feiyufu touched the armor and his eyes became hot.

Seeing that Su Jiuyue was sending her off sincerely, he couldn't bear to refuse.

He clasped his fists and said to Su Jiuyue: "Don't worry! We will definitely protect Brother Su!"

Others followed suit and clasped their fists, saying, "Don't worry, Miss Su!"

Lin Qingqing stepped forward awkwardly and handed Su Xian a purse.

"Here, here are the five hundred taels of silver that I hid without Yueyue's knowledge. Just think of it as... just think of it as me investing in your business! You must work hard and don't let me lose money!"

Having said that, he glared at him fiercely and turned back to the yard.

As Su Jiuyue watched, the group gradually disappeared from her sight.

Su Jiuyue took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed the sadness of parting, and walked towards the Wu Mansion with Iris.
