Chapter 51 Killing someone
Jiang Yingying's face turned pale in an instant, and her life force seemed to have completely disappeared at this moment.
She was silent for a moment, then burst into tears and cursed Su Wanyu: "Bitch, I will kill you!"
Before she finished her words, she stretched out her bloody hand and tried to pounce on Su Wanyu, but before she could make any move, Siqi's foot had already kicked her hard on the broken ribs.
The kick was precise and hit the vital point. The severe pain made Jiang Yingying sweat all over. She curled up on the ground, no longer able to make any sound, and could only twitch in pain.
Siqi glanced at Jiang Yingying coldly, then turned to ask Su Wanyu: "Miss, do you want me to kill her?"
Su Wanyu looked at Jiang Yingying who was in great pain, and a playful smile appeared on her lips: "Don't worry, this 'Marquis's wife' still has her value."
Her eyes were deep, and she obviously had longer-term plans.
Siqi took the order and quietly stepped aside.
The Zheng and Yu families are hoping that Su Wanyu can get rid of Jiang Yingying so that they can get rid of the relationship, but how could Su Wanyu easily do as they wish?
She wants to sharpen this sword of revenge with her own hands, and eventually plunge it into the heart of the Zheng family.
Su Wanyu took one last look at Jiang Yingying, then turned and left this cage full of pain and hatred.
"When will the princess's people arrive?" she asked Siqi as they walked.
Si Qi followed closely and replied, "About half an hour later."
Su Wanyu nodded: "Okay, then remove the guards around Jiang and lead her to the front yard."
"Yes, Miss." Siqi replied respectfully.
The master and servant left slowly, each thinking about their next move.
Today, the eldest princess sent someone here with the sole purpose of retrieving the gorgeous dress that had been carefully modified. She was extremely anxious and wanted to wear it as soon as possible, so she sent someone to ask for it early.
The person who came was none other than Nanny Xia, who was always by the eldest princess' side. She had been in the palace for many years and was not comparable to an ordinary servant.
When Nanny Xia arrived, Su Wanyu went to the front hall to greet her in person as a sign of respect.
Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Zheng hurried over from their respective residences.
To reach the main hall of Guo's residence, one has to pass through a long and secluded corridor courtyard with lush flowers and trees.
Just as Guo stepped into the corridor, a figure staggered over. It was Jiang Yingying, covered in blood.
Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale, and her eyes were dark, as if she was a ghost that had struggled back from the brink of hell.
Guo screamed: "You...why are you here?!"
Jiang Yingying endured the severe pain in her legs and knelt down in front of Guo. "Aunt, you must save me. It was Su Wanyu who harmed me. Aunt, although I am a distant relative, please lend a hand this time. As long as I can survive, I will definitely have a chance to make a comeback."
Guo listened to her incoherent words, and thinking of Nanny Xia waiting in the front yard, she couldn't help but feel a little impatient, and pushed Jiang Yingying away forcefully: "You have brought this upon yourself, you can't blame others!"
After saying this, she wanted to call the servants to deal with the situation.
In a hurry, Jiang Yingying tightly grasped the corner of Guo's clothes, and her tone was cold: "Aunt, you can't do this to me. Have you forgotten who covered up those shameful things for you?"
"Aunt!" she almost begged.
Guo was stunned and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? When you were having an affair with those wild men, who helped you cover up the facts, and who took care of Zheng Chengyan and Lord Zheng for you?" Jiang Yingying sneered, her blood-stain-covered face looking extremely hideous.
Guo was greatly shocked. No one knew about these things except those close to her. How did her cousin know about them?
It turned out that what Jiang Yingying said were all the things she did to help Guo in her previous life. Now her thoughts are confused and her memories are complicated.
Just now, Siqi, following Su Wanyu's instructions, cleverly guided Qingyue to release Jiang Yingying, and revealed Guo's secret in her ear, prompting Jiang Yingying to escape from the backyard and confront Guo.
"Aunt, please save my life because I have helped you in the past!"
Jiang Yingying forced a bitter smile, "If you don't save me, I will drag you to hell with me and let Zheng Chengyan and Lord Zheng know that you are the most unruly woman in the Zheng Mansion!"
Snapped!
A crisp slap was heard, and Guo slapped Jiang Yingying hard.
Jiang Yingying covered her burning cheeks, her eyes flashing with an even more sinister light. She began to laugh wildly: "Someone come! Someone come! Look at what the Zheng family's eldest lady has done. She has disgraced the family and ruined the family business!"
"Shut up!" Guo's eyes widened with anger, and she slapped him again, loud and decisive, echoing in the empty courtyard.
Jiang Yingying's cheek swelled up instantly, leaving a distinct fingerprint on her skin. She half-squinted her eyes, and a provocative sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Are you scared? I'm going to tell you, so that every brick and tile, every corner of the Changping Marquis's Mansion will know that the Marquis's wife actually..."
At this time, Jiang Yingying's eyes were burning with desperate fire. She was almost crazy and vowed to make Guo's secret public, even if it meant destroying herself and the whole family.
"Actually... with others..." The words were not finished, but they went straight to the heart.
Guo was panic-stricken, with beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead. She knew that once the secret was revealed, all her hard work would be in vain.
Seeing that Jiang Yingying's lips were about to reveal the unbearable secret, Guo didn't have time to think about it. She suddenly pulled out a long golden hairpin from her hair. The hairpin flashed a cold light in the sunlight, and her eyes were fierce.
The sharp end of the hairpin pierced Jiang Yingying's chest without hesitation. The air seemed to freeze for a moment, followed by the dull sound of metal piercing flesh.
Blood gushed out, instantly dyeing both of them red. The bright red looked particularly shocking on their fair skin.
There were bloodstains on Jiang Yingying's face, and the originally provocative smile froze in an instant, turning into incredible pain and fear.
Her pupils contracted violently, as if they were about to jump out of their sockets. Her face was distorted in extreme pain and looked extremely terrifying. "You...you...want to kill me...do you know...my identity...?"
"A lady of the first rank..." Her voice was weak, but filled with reluctance and despair.
Jiang Yingying struggled with all her might, her fingers tightly grasping Guo's sleeves, as if trying to grasp the last glimmer of hope for life, but the strength soon dissipated, and her body slowly fell down onto the cold stone slabs, surrounded by a pool of her own blood that gradually spread.
As Guo watched Jiang Yingying's vital signs gradually fade away, she felt an indescribable sense of relief in her heart.
If she dies, no one can threaten her anymore, and no one can uncover her unspeakable secret.
She slowly loosened her grip on the golden hairpin, with warm blood still on her fingertips. She was about to call for help to deal with the mess, but she suddenly heard a terrified scream from behind: "Ah! Murder! Murder!"
