Chapter 125 Qiu's Tragedy
"Fifth Miss, what are you doing? How dare you treat the old lady like this?" Nanny Ling immediately ran over to protect Mrs. Qiu.
Liu Yu raised her eyelids and looked at Nanny Ling, a cold light flashed in her eyes. Unexpectedly, she pulled out the sword from Feng Xiao's hand beside her, and suddenly, the sword pierced Nanny Ling's chest. She drew the sword and collected her energy. The movement was done in one go, clean and neat.
Madam Ling's eyes widened, and her expression gradually lost its luster, showing shock and disbelief.
But in the end, she couldn't hear Liu Yu's explanation, and her whole body fell straight backwards.
When Liu Zhang saw this scene, the fear that had initially dominated him by Master Chen San returned again. Liu Yu, who had always been treated like a little white rabbit by them, had killed someone, and the person she killed was the nanny who had accompanied her mother all her life.
This is more exciting and more frightening than Mr. Chen San killing the guards in person.
When Liu Yu's eyes fell on him, Liu Zhang's hair stood up and he stuttered:
"You can't kill me. I am the Marquis of Pingnan. To me, I am the Marquis of Pingnan. I have the title. You can't kill me."
"It's okay, kill him if you want, I'll take care of him for you." Uncle Chen San came behind her at some point and whispered in her ear.
Although his voice was low, it was just loud enough for Liu Zhang and Qiu and her son to hear, regardless of intention.
Qiu finally came to her senses, her body trembling violently, and her instinctive reaction was to scold Liu Yu as she did before.
After receiving Liu Yu's gaze, he immediately closed his mouth and dared not say another word.
Liu Yu was moved and said, "Okay, I understand."
But she really didn't intend to take Liu Zhang's life, at least not now.
Liu Yu heard from Feng Xiao about what happened to Mr. Chen San in the court this morning. Now that he had just escaped from the quagmire, he could help her bear the responsibility, but she didn't want to add any risk and burden to him.
But not killing Liu Zhang doesn't mean she will let him go.
However, before that, there is one more thing that requires Liu Zhang's cooperation.
She asked Liu Zhang for his opinion, and Liu Zhang agreed readily:
"As long as you don't kill me, Sister Yu, I will cooperate with you even if it's ten or a hundred things, not to mention one thing."
But Liu Zhang didn't know that in less than a cup of tea, he would deeply regret why he agreed to Liu Yu.
"Dad, everyone come out!" Liu Yu shouted towards the hiding place of Liu Yan and the others.
Hearing the sound, Liu Yan and the others walked out one by one and came to the center of the courtyard.
Mr. Chen San looked over and saw that the person walking in front was disheveled and his fine clothes were all covered in mud, and his original color could not be seen. Even his shoes were worn backwards. Any normal person would have looked at him with disdain.
Uncle Chen San didn't. Not only did he not despise her, his eyes even revealed deep interest and admiration.
He walked forward, not caring whether Liu Yan could understand him or not, and bowed to him:
"Chen Zhihe, meet Prince Liu."
He is more than ten years older than Liu Yu, and is rarely heard of by the younger generations, but he grew up hearing the name of Prince Liu. In the capital at that time, Prince Liu was among the best in talent, knowledge, and appearance. He dared to claim to be second, and no one dared to claim to be first. He was a household name and a role model for everyone's children.
Everyone said that with such a son, the Pingnan Marquis Mansion would hopefully return to its former glory as it had been during the time of its ancestors, and ensure that the Pingnan Marquis Mansion would prosper for three generations.
Unexpectedly, the old Marquis of Pingnan favored his concubine and neglected his wife. Unable to accept the death of his mother, this brilliant prince was so heartbroken that he went crazy.
When he was a child, the person that Mr. Chen Sanye admired and respected the most was Master Liu. His family collected many of his articles. After Master Liu went crazy, his master was sad for a long time.
Feng Xiao explained to Liu Yu.
Liu Yu only has memories after Liu Yan went crazy. She was too young to remember what happened before that.
She said it! Even because of her, Mr. Chen San didn't have to act like a madman.
Liu Yan still remembered his character. He just looked at Mr. Chen San in confusion and walked towards Liu Yu without stopping.
"Daughter, call me daddy?"
Mr. Chen San shook his head with a smile, followed Liu Yan to Liu Yu, and suddenly put his arm around Liu Yu's waist.
Liu Yan's unfocused pupils suddenly shrank, and a fierce look flashed across his face in an instant.
This small change did not escape the eyes of Mr. Chen San. He smiled knowingly, happily withdrew his hand and touched his nose.
Liu Yu didn't notice the undercurrent between the two men. She pointed at Liu Zhang:
"Dad, he just had someone beat you up, do you want to fight back?"
"Come back." Liu Yan rubbed his hands excitedly. At Liu Yu's signal, he walked up to Liu Zhang step by step and punched and kicked him, attacking Liu Zhang fiercely.
Liu Zhang rolled on the ground in pain, curled up with his head protected, and kept crying and begging for mercy: "Brother, ouch, it hurts so much, big brother, please forgive me! I won't dare to do it again..."
He regretted it! If he had known that Liu Yu wanted Liu Yan to beat him, he would never have agreed.
Those who had originally followed the old marquis all showed complicated expressions when they saw Liu Zhang's spineless look.
Just now they started beating Liu Yan, but Liu Yan didn't say a word. Looking at Liu Zhang again, it was a stark contrast.
Besides, Liu Yan was just a weak scholar, how much strength could he have?
Once again, I lament that the old marquis chose the wrong person! They didn't approve of this kind of underhanded method in the first place. Now that it's exposed, they should just bear it. But they still have the nerve to beg for mercy. It's really despicable. Where is the majesty of the marquis?
If Liu Zhang knew what these people were thinking, he would definitely point at their noses and say, "You scholars, you have little strength? Why don't you try it?"
Liu Yan's fist felt like an iron rod hitting him, and his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were all aching!
After half an incense stick of time, Liu Yan seemed to be tired and finally stopped, feeling so relieved.
After returning to the Pingnan Marquis Mansion for so long, I have never felt more relieved than at this moment.
Liu Yu smiled and handed Liu Yan a handkerchief: "Dad, wipe it." He pointed to the sweat on his forehead.
Liu Zhang seemed to be relieved, and he collapsed to the ground with his limbs spread out.
"Zhang'er." Qiu rushed over distressedly. Seeing her son's miserable state, she stared at Liu Yu with eyes that could kill people, but she knew that she had to leave first. She asked angrily:
"Liu Yu, is it ok now? We can go now!"
Liu Yu smiled, and under Qiu's gaze, she slowly said a few words: "No, do you think that what you did to us can be resolved by a beating? Too naive, this is just a return, and the real thing is starting from now." With a gentle smile on her face, she pointed at the group of people who followed the old marquis and now followed Liu Zhang, and forced:
"Go and break his legs."
Naturally they refused, and Liu Yu was not surprised. He just ordered Feng Xiao that if they didn't beat Liu Zhang, Feng Xiao would break their legs.
