Chapter 270 Revenge (11)
Chapter 270 Revenge (11)
After Wu Ya finished telling her what happened today, Nie Qingxue threw back the quilt and ran out the door without even bothering to put on her shoes.
Sure enough, Dongmei was sitting on the steps outside the door with her head down.
"Dongmei!" Nie Qingxue said with a choked voice. She walked over quickly and hugged Dongmei from behind. "I'm sorry, I came back late..." Caiju and Dongmei were both maids who treated her sincerely and were both excellent people. No matter how many times she came back to her life, Caiju and Dongmei would stand firmly by her side.
"Miss... wuwuwu..." Dongmei couldn't help but cover her face with her hands and cried loudly.
"It's okay, I will protect you from now on. Where is Caiju? Where is she?" Nie Qingxue comforted her softly.
Wu Ya came out of the house and answered her question: "Miss Cai Ju's body is in the side room."
Hearing this, Nie Qingxue slowly stood up. She pursed her lips, turned and walked towards the side door, stretched out her hand, and gently pushed the door open.
Caiju was lying on the ground covered with a quilt. She had changed her clothes. Nie Qingxue walked over to her and knelt on the ground.
She raised her hand to touch Caiju's face, but her hand was shaking.
Caiju's face had been wiped very clean, but the scars on her face were obvious. There was a big cut on her purple lip, and her face was swollen.
"Cai Ju...you can go with peace of mind. I will avenge you, I definitely will!" Nie Qingxue closed her eyes, and a line of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
Now Caiju died because of Luo Yingsheng's coercion. Even if the scum Luo Yingsheng died, she would make the Luo family and Nie Qianyuan pay the price!
She knew all about Nie Qianyuan's deeds in her previous life, but she only let him go because he was her biological father. But Luo Yingsheng's actions had already touched her bottom line. He had the confidence to kill Caiju because Nie Qianyuan didn't dare to turn against the Luo family.
But Nie Qingxue doesn't care about the Luo family or the Li family. If you hurt her family, you will have to bear her anger.
Afterwards, Nie Qingxue took the initiative to admit her mistake in front of the emperor, revealing Nie Xuanyuan's involvement in reselling royal items. She also expressed her willingness to donate all the money earned by Zhiyage over the years to replenish the national treasury.
Nie Xuanyuan and Concubine Chen were sentenced to exile in the frontier, and all those implicated in the incident were rounded up and punished, with some receiving beheadings. Because Nie Qingxue voluntarily admitted her fault, she was only sentenced to a month of solitary confinement. Nie Huaili was engaged to Prince Duan, so she was also confined to the Nie residence until she could marry him.
Chen Shuyi did not want to be exiled, so she turned to her daughter and asked Nie Huaili to speak well of her in front of Prince Duan. However, Tu Weizhi took Nie Huaili away in front of Chen Shuyi, refusing to give her a chance.
The huge Nie Mansion became empty in just one morning.
Nie Qingxue stood in front of the warehouse door, her expression impassive. The contents had long since been completely divided up by Nie Xuanyuan and Chen Shuyi. She could have prevented this from happening in this lifetime, but someone else had entered her body.
"Miss, Master Wen is looking for you." Dongmei's eyes still looked a little haggard.
Nie Qingxue couldn't understand why Wen Shuan came to see her, but she still asked Dongmei to take him to the front hall.
When Nie Qingxue came to the front hall, she saw two large boxes behind Wen Shuan.
"Master Wen, what are you doing?" Nie Qingxue asked in confusion.
Wen Shu'an smiled slightly, "Xue'er, you misunderstood. These two boxes contain your mother's belongings."
Nie Qingxue was stunned. "Why?"
"I've been in Tiandu City for so long, and I've always heard a rumor that most of Mr. Nie's money came from selling Princess Liuli's belongings. So I followed the rumor and looked for them, thinking that Xue'er would be very sad to lose Princess Liuli's belongings. I only found this much, Xue'er, you can count them first." Wen Shu'an asked the servant behind him to open the two large boxes.
Nie Qingxue pursed her lips and said, "Master Wen, thank you very much."
"How much did you spend? I can pay you back." Nie Qingxue asked seriously.
Wen Shu'an shook his head gently. "No need, Xue'er. Not only am I helping you, but Master Wuya is also here. Master Wuya paid for most of the money, and I'm just responsible for finding it."
Nie Qingxue lowered her eyes, "It's different. I want to return it. The same goes for Wuya's share."
"Xue'er, are you being so reserved now?" Wen Shu'an smiled gently. "How about Xue'er, please treat me to a meal you cooked yourself, and I'll be able to repay the favor."
"Master Wen, you don't have to..." Nie Qingxue was interrupted by Wen Shu'an halfway through her words, "Xue'er, there's no need to say more. I'll take my leave now."
After Wen Shu'an left, Dongmei blinked and said, "Miss, Master Wen is really a good person. So is Master Wuya."
Nie Qingxue sighed softly, "Yes, they are all good people." However, she knew exactly what Wen Shuan wanted, but she couldn't give it to him. Wen Shuan also understood this, which was why he asked her to cook a meal herself.
Nie Qingxue looked at the two large boxes full of gold and silver jewelry. She walked over and took out a mutton-fat jade peace locket from them.
She had been wearing this peace locket since she was born, and she originally thought she had accidentally lost it, for which Nie Qingxue blamed herself as a child. However, she had no idea that the peace locket had already been sold by Nie Qianyuan.
Her name, Qingxue, is also engraved on the peace locket.
Nie Qingxue's eyes darkened. Nie Qianyuan was still in prison. She wouldn't let him die so easily. She had prepared many good things to treat Nie Qianyuan and Aunt Chen on the way to the border. She hoped they would make it to the border alive.
And Nie Huaili, it’s time to meet this good sister.
Ever since she came back, Nie Huaili has been finding excuses to avoid her, but it doesn't matter. Even if she hides in Prince Duan's Mansion, she can still make Nie Huaili come out to see her.
"Miss, I have completed what you asked me to do." At this time, Xia Qing walked in from outside and whispered to Nie Qingxue.
Nie Qingxue raised the corner of her lips, "Xia Qing, you've worked hard. Go down and rest first. The wound on your hand hasn't healed yet. Remember to apply the medicine every day, and you'll recover faster."
"Yes, I remember it."
