Female-to-male: I live on farming

Chapter 235 Revenge

Two things happened in Beijing recently, which were neither big nor small.

First, the second son of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, Mr. Qi, was out when his horse was suddenly frightened. After he fell off the horse, he happened to fall on a stone on the side of the road and hit his knee.

It is said that after Qi Xuan was carried back to the mansion, the Marquis' Mansion invited doctors from all over the capital to treat him, and even took the Marquis's letter to the Imperial Hospital to invite the imperial physician. The result was still the same: the second son of Qi had a broken kneecap, and even if he recovered, he would probably have difficulty in moving.

The doctor spoke implicitly, but everyone could hear it, and Qi Xuan would become a useless person in the future.

Fortunately, he was born into a wealthy and noble family. Even if he was lame, he could live the rest of his life without worries about food and clothing.

The entire Yongchang Marquis's mansion was immersed in a gloomy and depressing atmosphere. The Yongchang Marquis's wife stayed by his bed every day, and the maids and servants could only serve him with utmost care.

After the imperial physician gave the final notice, Marquis Yongchang just looked at Qi Xuan with grief and solemnity, then turned away and never set foot in his yard again.

It is worth mentioning that Cheng Ruoyao was also released by the wife of Yongchang Marquis because of Qi Xuan's injury. After all, her son was already in this state and could not find another girl from a good family, and she would still need Cheng's care in the future.

No one realized that this was a premeditated action, but Wang Qiping, who heard the news, was uneasy, feeling that something was wrong.

It was not until he went to court that several censors suddenly attacked him, and all the things he had done in the past were brought before the emperor.

Wang Qiping, who was already feeling guilty and nervous, immediately collapsed to the ground, with the censor's impeachment whistling in his ears. He had only one thought in his mind: he was finished!

All the civil and military officials in the court could not understand the situation at first, but since someone had impeached him, they naturally followed suit and agreed to investigate the Vice Minister of Works Wang Qiping thoroughly.

When His Majesty announced that he would be imprisoned and handed over to the Dali Temple for investigation, Wang Qinian raised his head with a pale and dull expression, and involuntarily looked at Lu Youqing, who had remained silent the whole time.

She slowly raised her eyelids and glanced at him. Her eyes were very deep, like a bottomless cold pond. There was no smile on her lips, which were cold and indifferent.

This is revenge!

He finally realized that both the Wang family and Qi Xuan were retaliated against because they had touched Qin Ke.

He underestimated Qin Ke's abilities and also looked down on Lu Youqing.

She was more decisive and ruthless than anyone imagined.

When he heard that Lu Youqing was cleaning up the officialdom in Yizhou, everyone called her "living devil" and sneered. He thought she was just a woman, and women are all emotional and soft-hearted.

Until the Wang family was ransacked, all the people were imprisoned in the Dali Temple awaiting their fate.

The people who watched the fun just felt very happy, and no one could guess the reason behind it.

While there was a lot of talk outside, Qin Ke was living in peace and quiet at home.

Qin Ke, who had already learned about this from his wife, was surprised for a moment when he heard that Qi Xuan was involved.

He believed that he had only met Qi Xuan once, and just because he had said a few provocative words to him when they met, he came up with such a vicious plan to plot against him.

Qin Ke's reasonable suspicion that his provocation was secondary was the main reason; Qi Xuan was jealous of the happy life he and his wife were leading.

However, after learning that Lu Youqing had let the thunder cut off one of his legs without hesitation, his mood immediately became cheerful. He was absolutely sure that his wife had no feelings for her ex-fiancé at all. Not only did she not have any feelings for him, she was probably disgusted with him.

After Qin Ke knew that his leg was broken, he sent people to inquire about the news at Yongchang Marquis Mansion. After learning that he had woken up and knew that his leg would never heal, his temper became even more violent. He beat and scolded the servants who served him every day and was extremely uncooperative with the treatment.

After Cheng Ruoyao knew that he was lame, she only served him kindly and gently in front of the wife of Yongchang Marquis's mansion. When she left, her face suddenly darkened.

Qi Xuan lies in bed and has difficulty moving. He needs someone to take care of him for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even when he goes to the toilet, he can only do it in bed. Cheng Ruoyao dislikes him very much.

The concubines who used to compete for his favor were no longer willing to get close to him. This huge gap made Qi Xuan angry and sad, especially his father, who never came to see him again.

Qi Xuan knew best what this meant!

He was disabled and had no chance of a career in officialdom. He was abandoned and given up by the Yongchang Marquisate!

Qi Xuan, realizing this, became more and more self-destructive, and his hatred towards Qin Ke grew even stronger!

Qin Ke regarded Qi Xuan's miserable appearance every day as a joke. If possible, he would like to go to Yongchang Marquis Mansion in person to see his miserable appearance.

That day, Qin Ke heard that Wang Qiping's house was searched and his body was confiscated and he was imprisoned. It was said that countless properties were seized from his house. Just after he finished listening to Han Qi's report, a servant came to report that someone was visiting.

Since Han Qi was fined his monthly salary and witnessed Lu Youqing's methods, he served Qin Ke more carefully and attentively. He knew that he was only fined his salary, and the lady did it for the sake of her husband.

Otherwise, a beating is inevitable.

When Su Mian came, he saw Qin Ke leisurely enjoying the cool under the pavilion, playing with Yueya in his arms, and occasionally lowering his head to write something.

He said unhappily, "How nice of you! I heard that you took leave these days, and I thought you were not feeling well, but it turns out you are quite relaxed."

Qin Ke looked at her and blinked innocently, wondering, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

Su Mian rolled her eyes at him and poured herself a cold drink without any hesitation: "It's all about the library. I haven't been home for several days because of the preparations for the opening. You have a lot of free time as a hands-off shopkeeper!"

"But this matter was originally the responsibility of you and the little princess. I just came up with an idea, and I have no share in this library." Qin Ke still grabbed Yueya's little arm and waved it at Su Mian, lowering his head and coaxing: "Come, baby, say hello to your aunt!"

"Hello, auntie. Have some melons!" Yueya tilted her delicate little face up, smiling sweetly and obediently. She also very tactfully pushed the fruit plate in front of her towards Su Mian.

As soon as Su Mian saw Yueya, she immediately smiled. She didn't show any impatience towards Qin Ke at all and even hugged her in her arms.

"Okay, what do you want to talk to me about?" Qin Ke spread his hands.

"The little princess wants to know if you will come to the opening day?"

"Has the date been set?" Qin Ke didn't pay much attention. He didn't expect the little princess to act so quickly.

"It's the 16th. I see you have nothing to do..."

Qin Ke interrupted her seriously: "Who said I have nothing to do? I am busy with important matters, okay?"

Su Mian lowered her eyes and glanced at the things in front of him, speechless: "Your main job is to write a storybook?"
