When Lord Qi heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He looked at Ying San in front of him and said, "County Lady, don't speak nonsense!"
"Since you said that people who died from the strange flower poison were just as angry as those who died, what made you so sure that they died from poisoning? Maybe you colluded with the Gao family to frame me!"
Ying San heard this and curled his lips: "Master Qi, are you kidding? The Gao family and I have teamed up to frame you. First of all, I am not familiar with the Gao family!"
"Secondly, why would I wrongly accuse you? Could it be that Elder Qi has done something to offend this county lady, so he is guilty!"
"Do you think that I am bored and would use a corpse to frame you? Oh, yes, and although the person who was poisoned by the strange flower looks similar to the person who died of anger."
"But in fact, there is a difference. The difference lies in the ten fingers of Madam Qi Er. It doesn't matter whether she died of anger or poisoning."
"It's because the heart beats too fast and the body can't bear it, so the heart stops suddenly and causes death."
"It's just that Madam Qi was poisoned to death, so the poison will be released after the heart stops beating, that is, after the person dies, along with the last trace of blood in the body."
"When it flows onto a person's fingernails, the saying 'the ten fingers are connected to the heart' means something similar. There is a black spot on each of Madam Qi's ten fingernails."
"This black spot is the poison of the strange flower, so my judgment is based on facts. Although I have said so much, you may not understand it."
"But the black spots on Madam Qi's ten fingernails are evidence that Madam Qi was poisoned by someone from your Qi family."
"I recall that when I first went to your Qi family to attend the banquet, Madam Qi II came out to greet the guests. It seems that she is one of the wives in charge."
"I just don't know who in your Qi family would poison Madam Qi II? Don't say that someone from the Gao family did it and frame you."
"Don't you think about the time when Madam Qi was poisoned? It was three days ago when Miss Qi Mengyao got married. At that time, the Gao family had not yet returned to Beijing!"
"Your Majesty, that's all I have to say. This old man Qi can't even figure out his family affairs. I'm afraid he's too old to tell things apart."
"I think the emperor should make plans early."
Of course, it is self-evident what he is planning to do. Of course, he is planning to let Lord Qi retire and then promote new people into the cabinet.
Many people began to have ideas at this time. After all, the Qi family has been a little arrogant in recent years, and they are only relying on Lord Qi.
At this time, Lord Qi was really angry. He looked at Ying San and was speechless for a while. The emperor also sighed.
Looking at Lord Qi, he said, "Forget it. This is Lord Qi's family affair. Since the Gao family has complained to me, I will take care of it."
"Lord Qi, what do you think about this matter? This is the second wife of your Qi family. She was poisoned to death for no reason."
"This is also a sign of not taking your Qi Mansion seriously. You must investigate it carefully, otherwise, it will be embarrassing."
Although it is very embarrassing now, it seems that there is still room for redemption. Looking at Lord Qi, he said, "How about this, Lord Qi."
"I'll give you three days to find out what happened. The cause of death of your second wife Qi, and then give an explanation to the Gao family."
"If you can't find the answer in three days, I will send someone to investigate. What do you think?"
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Lord Qi felt aggrieved but could do nothing about it. He could only nod and say, "I obey your order."
"I must give an explanation to the Emperor and the Gao family within three days."
Seeing that things were almost done, the emperor asked the eunuch to call for the court to be dismissed, and then everyone went back to their homes. The Gao family naturally went back to the Gao family.
The Gao family is still very busy now. Burying the second wife of Qi is one thing, and the dowry must also be handed over to Qi Mengyao as soon as possible.
Today Qi Mengyao was not idle either. Early in the morning, she went to the Liu family accompanied by several Madam Gao and several maids.
Of course, the purpose is to clean up her dowry and take it away. After all, the Gao family already knows what kind of life Qi Mengyao is living in the Liu family.
Of course they would choose to divorce rather than let Qi Mengyao continue to suffer in the Gao family. The three wives in the Gao family all gave birth to sons.
They all wanted a daughter so badly, but they still couldn't give birth to one. Now, finally a girl fell from the sky, even though she is a niece.
But she is not a daughter either. Everyone was planning to do their best to be nice to Qi Mengyao, but they found out that Qi Mengyao was living such a life.
Suddenly, everyone was extremely angry and went to the Liu family early in the morning. The Liu family also knew at this time that Qi Mengyao's maternal family was actually the Gao family.
Just when she was happy, someone came to her door. Lord Liu and Madam Liu looked at Qi Mengyao politely and said, "Mengyao is back."
"It just so happened that you were gone for so many days, and then your mother got into trouble. You've suffered so much. By the way, why hasn't Haifeng come out yet?"
"Maybe Haifeng is too tired these days. After all, something happened to your mother. Although Haifeng is a son-in-law, he is still half a son. If you have anything to do, just tell Haifeng to do it."
When Madam Gao heard this, she snorted coldly. She wanted to say something, but Qi Mengyi spoke up: "Aunt, the Liu family's parents are not aware of these things."
Hearing Qi Mengyao's words, the ladies of the Gao family were surprised. However, Minister Liu felt something was wrong and looked at Qi Mengyao.
"Mengyao, has something happened? Did Haifeng get into trouble? This is impossible. Haifeng has been with you all these days."
"Dealing with your mother's affairs?"
In fact, Qi Mengyao really didn't want to talk to the Liu family's parents. After all, they were honest people and had always thought that their son was a gentle and elegant gentleman.
Who would have thought that she had such a dirty heart? But coming here today, Liu's parents would definitely know about their son's affairs. Qi Mengyao felt a little guilty.
But in comparison, Qi Mengyao felt that she was more pitiful, so what she had to do today had to be done no matter what, looking at Minister Liu.
"Master Liu, can you please ask Liu Haifeng to come out? I came back today to divorce Liu Haifeng and take my dowry with me."
Speaking of dowry, Madam Liu was stunned for a moment and looked at Qi Mengyao: "You said you want to divorce my son? Why is that?"
"Although you are the niece of the Gao family now, you used to be the daughter of the Qi family. Weren't you also in love with our Feng'er?"
Qi Mengyao smiled: "So that's what Liu Haifeng told you, that he and I are in love?"
Minister Liu and his wife both felt that something was wrong and looked at Qi Mengyao: "What's going on? Weren't you just fine before?"
Qi Mengyao shook her head: "Master Liu, Madam Liu, if you want to know what's going on, you can go find Liu Haifeng and ask him!"
When Liu Haifeng heard that Qi Mengyao had returned, he also walked out at this time. When he heard Qi Mengyao's words, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"What else could it be? It's just that he found a backer and he looks down on me who doesn't even have an official position. Dad and Mom, you go in first."
"My son will handle his own affairs."
Minister Liu and his wife were easy to deceive in the past, but today they suddenly became smart: "No, Feng'er, if there is a backer, then the Qi family is also a backer."
"Miss Qi is still willing to marry you. It's impossible for her to change her mind after the Gao family returns. Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Qi Mengyao looked at Liu Haifeng: "Liu Haifeng, at this point, do you still want to hide it from your parents? You can't tell me, right? I can tell you for you."
As long as she could see Liu Haifeng in pain, Qi Mengyao was happy, so at this time she didn't care about Minister Liu and his wife, and just talked with a laugh.
"Master Liu, you don't know what your son has done, right? How could I possibly be interested in him?"
"Of course I'm not saying he's bad, but you may not know that your son doesn't like women. He likes those who are the same as him."
"In the past few days since we got married, he has never touched me. As for why I married your son, it was because your son and my eldest sister plotted against me."
"You took advantage of my eldest sister's lack of defense and drugged me, allowing your son to destroy my innocence. The Qi family had no choice but to marry me to your son."
"If your son had any sincerity towards me, I wouldn't have done such a ruthless thing..."
Qi Mengyao was so angry that she didn't even care about her own face. She told people about her experiences in the new house in the past few days, and people actually felt more sympathetic.
Minister Liu and his wife were stunned. How could their son be such a person? They shook their heads and said, "No, how could Haifeng be such a person?"
"If I don't like you, why should I marry you?"
Qi Mengyao sneered: "Why? Because I am the daughter of the Qi family, and your Liu family can be related to the Qi family!"
Liu Haifeng was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He looked at Qi Mengyao and said, "Qi Mengyao, shut up. Do you believe I will kill you?"
Qi Mengyao nodded directly: "I believe it! I know you really want to kill me. When I say this, you will lose face in all of Kyoto."
"I'm afraid you can't make it in Kyoto anymore, but that doesn't matter. I just want to divorce you! Originally, you agreed so readily that I wouldn't say anything."
"But you insisted on being the first to complain and put the blame on me, saying that I looked down on you because of the Gao family. I will tell you today."
"No matter if there is a Gao family or not, I have never been interested in you! Do you understand? I have always had my eyes on someone else!"
Yes, Qi Mengyao had always had her eyes on Li Ziqing, not Liu Haifeng. Unfortunately, she was set up. Liu Haifeng was furious at this moment. gfbmmjD6vtLSaDjNAMr7x+cAJfrxmldLwH/ZzyO8z5GisJlPbdeDIGJfyq9N6ALntkPrNLIFSkmT6M4KHQWJrA==
"Do you think that I will agree to divorce you now that things have come to this?"
