Chapter 2008 She has changed
Seeing Liu Xiuyun become so unfamiliar, Wan Shufang's heart skipped a beat, but she still held her hand tightly: "Xiuyun, don't panic, tell me what happened slowly."
When Liu Xiuyun heard Wan Shufang's words, everything that had happened in the past few days flashed through her mind, and a look of pain appeared on her face.
"I shouldn't have trusted the Qin family, Madam. It was my fault. I harmed them." As she spoke, her face suddenly changed and she squeezed Wan Shufang's wrist tightly: "Madam, please, please save Zhong Zhoufeng!"
"Zhong Zhoufeng?"
"It's that Taoist priest. After he heard that I was dead, he ran to the Qin Mansion to ask for an explanation, but was locked up and tortured in the dungeon by Qin Tianci." Liu Xiuyun said anxiously. All this was revealed by Qin Tianci when he buried her.
After all, at that time, they all thought she was dead, but they never thought that she was still breathing and could hear the conversations outside.
Hearing this, Wan Shufang glanced at the sky outside. It was just dawn now, so it was not a good time to rob a prisoner. She could only comfort him, "Don't worry, we will rescue him tonight."
"Tell me slowly what happened these days."
"These days... since my madam left, the Qin family first withheld the land deed and then brought people to my house to collect the debt. They emptied the dowry that was returned to me and hired people to threaten me. My child was even scared and had a high fever." Liu Xiuyun covered her face and cried. She couldn't believe that she had ever loved Qin Tianci, such a cold and heartless man.
Just by listening to her words, Wan Shufang felt the bitterness. She frowned and cursed the Qin family for their hypocritical behavior in her heart.
She frowned and looked at Chen Changli, her tone filled with worry: "Changli, we didn't bring many secret guards with us this time. Can we get into the Qin family dungeon?"
"Qiwu Town is located in a remote area. I have seen the Qin family's guards before. They don't have any real skills. An Yi can defeat them alone."
After hearing this, Wan Shufang and Liu Xiuyun both breathed a sigh of relief. Now, they just had to wait until dark to do the work. Wan Shufang checked Liu Xiuyun's injuries again, while Chen Changli went out to find out the situation.
That night.
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang, along with the secret guards, sneaked into the dungeon of the Qin Mansion. The deeper they went, the more obvious the stench around them became. The damp and rotten air made Wan Shufang subconsciously frown and cover her mouth and nose.
"This place stinks so much, it looks like a lot of corpses are piled up here."
The Qin family is really not as simple as it seems...
Thinking of this, Wan Shufang's desire to overthrow the Qin family became stronger and stronger. Until they reached the innermost part of the dungeon, a smelly and damp place, they finally saw Zhong Zhoufeng lying there.
There was no sign of life left in his body. The chain pierced his collarbone, and his body was covered with wounds so rotten that the bones were visible. His eyes were tightly closed, and if it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, it would be impossible to tell that he was still alive.
"Changli, break the lock."
Wan Shufang looked at Zhong Zhoufeng worriedly, knowing that there was no time to delay any longer. She let go of the prison door lock, only to see Chen Changli slash the lock with a knife, and several men pushed the door open and entered.
"Fortunately, he's still alive." As she said that, Wan Shufang took out a silver needle from the space and used acupuncture to save the man, while Chen Changli continued to swing his knife to cut off the iron chains that were rooted in Zhong Zhoufeng's body.
There were a few clanging sounds and the iron chain fell to the ground. Wan Shufang fed Zhong Zhoufeng a life-saving pill and then let An Yi carry him out.
"An Yi, be careful, his body can't be shaken too much."
"Yes, ma'am." An Yi took the order and walked out with people on his back. As soon as they came out of the dungeon, they ran into Feng Yingying and others coming to the dungeon.
Chen Changli was the first to notice something was going on, and he quickly stopped everyone from moving forward. He held his breath, listened carefully to the noises around him, and after confirming that there was someone, he lowered his voice and said, "Someone is coming, hide first."
Hearing this, several people hurriedly hid in the dark. Not long after, they saw Feng Yingying coming over with a few people. She did not see Wan Shufang and her group, but went straight to the dungeon.
He touched his belly as he walked, and looked at the jailers with a gloomy expression: "You guys, get rid of Zhong Zhoufeng quickly."
"Yes, Madam Second Young Master."
Seeing the jailer respond, Feng Yingying raised her head and walked in with a swagger.
It was not until her figure disappeared at the end that Wan Shufang frowned and warned: "Let's go quickly. She will soon find out that Zhong Zhoufeng is missing. It will be too troublesome if she makes a fuss."
"Yes, ma'am."
The secret guard responded, and the few of them worked in perfect harmony and quickly left the Qin family.
After a night, Zhong Zhoufeng woke up in the inn under Wan Shufang's treatment. He coughed weakly a few times, and when he saw Liu Xiuyun's worried expression, he gently shook his head: "Don't worry, Miss, I'm fine."
Ever since the Qin family disowned Liu Xiuyun, they no longer called her Madam, but only Miss.
Seeing him covered in wounds but still trying to comfort herself, Liu Xiuyun couldn't help crying: "It's all my fault. I caused you to suffer in vain."
"Miss, you are wrong. Even if you are not here, the Qin family will not accommodate me." Zhong Zhoufeng pulled up a helpless smile and looked at Chen Changli and Wan Shufang.
Suddenly, he struggled to get up from the bed and wanted to kneel down to the two of them, but Chen Changli stopped him in time: "You are injured, there is no need to kneel, just say whatever you want to say."
Hearing this, Zhong Zhou didn't force it anymore. He nodded, walked to the table with small steps, took out an account from his tattered clothes, and handed it to Chen Changli.
"Sir, this is evidence that can bring down the Qin family. Over the years, they have been falsifying accounts and defrauding taxes. Although I went to the Qin family to seek justice for the young lady, I did not rush forward."
Zhong Zhoufeng sighed, and thought of what happened that day, disgust in his eyes: "I know very well that if I want to help Miss, the only way is for the Qin family to fall, so I sneaked into the Qin family's study and searched for evidence, and found this account, but I didn't expect it to be discovered..."
"My Lord and Madam also know the rest of the matter." Zhong Zhoufeng smiled helplessly, but accidentally pulled the wound, causing him to grimace in pain.
Liu Xiuyun also came over to look at the account. She was silent for a moment, then suddenly sneered: "This thing can at most make the Qin family suffer a little, but what I want is to make them fall into an irretrievable situation!"
Liu Xiuyun's tone was fierce. Now, she was no longer the kind little girl she used to be. Instead, she was truly forced by the Qin family to become a devil crawling back from hell.
Having been buried twice and betrayed twice, she now only wants the Qin family to be buried with her.
Seeing her body trembling with hatred, Wan Shufang felt pity and couldn't help but reach out and pat her on the shoulder.
"The Qin family is unkind and unjust. It's time for them to pay the price. Moreover, they will never be able to make a comeback, only then will you be safe." As she spoke, Wan Shufang raised her eyes and looked at Chen Changli, wanting to ask for his opinion.
After all, Qin Wenxuan is still related to him.
