It had to be said that Xiao Qing's natural tolerance over the past few years had caused these people to misunderstand. Even when she had started to be serious, Li Jing had only thought that she was spouting vicious words.

It was only when Ri-er joyfully walked forward and rolled up her sleeves, knocking down three to four burly men in twos and threes did Li Jing finally open her mouth wide in shock, unable to believe what she had just seen.

The person she called today was the family's most capable servant!

"Good, good. I didn't see that you, Little Waves, had some ability. No wonder you're not afraid. So you have someone by your side." The anger hidden within the mockery and mockery between the frown of the woman's eyes could not be ignored.

Li Jing stood up with one hand on her waist and cursed at the top of her voice, "Xiao Qing Ran, do you think that I won't be able to heal you like this? "You better know that I am the Madam, the lord of the entire General's House, and you are just a concubine who doesn't even know who gave birth to her!"

"You dare to attack my precious daughter, today I will teach you a lesson in place of the old master!" At this moment, she was gritting her teeth in anger. She was like a crazed woman without any morals, and she had no self-control whatsoever.

Xiao Qingran laughed coldly as she did not put her threat in her eyes at all. She stood calmly by the door from beginning to end, and in the end, just lazily leaned against the doorframe.

"What are you all waiting for? "Trash, all of you are trash, get up!" Li Jing angrily ordered as she grabbed a broken table leg from the ground and strode forward.

She held the table leg tightly in her hand and used it as a stick. After taking two to three steps, she reached out her hand and swung it towards her head. I want to see how you will dodge! "

He didn't say that they were only two silly girls. He didn't believe that she would dare to let that lowly maid attack him, the real Madam.

'Bang! 'a muffled sound was heard. The stick made contact with human skin.

Li Jing, who was holding the stick, was frozen on the spot. Her pupils had shrunk to their smallest.

As for the other side of the stick, it was held firmly in Xiao Qing's hand. The corner of her mouth was lifted into a cold smile that no one could see through, yet they could feel the chilliness coming from it. She looked at Li Jing sharply and said word by word: "You only have one chance.

Li Jing opened her mouth as cold sweat dripped down her forehead. The stick in her hand suddenly hit the ground making a few crisp sounds.

"Ahhh ~ ~ ~" It was as if Li Jing had just regained consciousness. She hugged her right arm and screamed miserably. Due to the intense pain, she was unable to control her body and fell to the ground.

"Miss." He thought of Riko's voice on the other end.

Xiao Qingran did not even need to turn her head to know that she had almost solved the problem. She walked straight into the inner room without even looking at them and ordered: "Throw all these dirty things out."

"Yes ~" Riko's tone was filled with the excitement of having just stretched her limbs.

Xiao Qing stepped on the corpses of the two or three people and entered the inner room.

Although the inner room also had traces of being smashed, the damage wasn't too serious.

That was normal as she did not have any special hobbies and only occasionally read books. Therefore, other than a bed, there was only a window table and a chair inside the room. The rest of the furnishings weren't even there.

Riko knew that her master loved cleanliness, so she quickly tossed Li Jing, who was still screaming, and a few people she had brought along out of the courtyard while rolling in her arms. Afterwards, she returned and quickly cleaned up all the broken parts in the house.

At this moment, Xiao Qing was lying on the bed, looking at the emerald bracelet on her right wrist.

This was something that suddenly appeared on her wrist after her rebirth. In her previous life, she had never seen this thing before.

Even though she still hadn't found the origin of the bracelet, she knew that she must have some sort of fate with it.

"Miss, are you alright?" When Riko reappeared in the room, she had a fruit plate in her hand.

Of course, Xiao Qing really liked to eat sour food. She liked to nibble on some dried fruits when she was thinking about things or when she was in a mood mood mood. The lemon was the best.

Today, Pear specifically cut some fresh lemon.

Xiao Qingran took a deep breath and regained some energy when she smelled the faint sour smell in the air. Without getting up, she laid on her back, reached for a piece of peeled skin and stuffed it into her mouth.

The moment the fruit was bitten into pieces, the extremely sour taste instantly filled his mouth and nose, making his eyes so sore that tears were about to fall.

However, Xiao Qing was fond of this feeling. She exhaled a mouthful of foul air, as if her mood had improved a lot: "What can I do? Li Jing is the same as her daughter. Those two are just bringing this upon themselves."

"Even if that woman doesn't go and complain to Xiao Zhi, it's fine. She's just trying to cover it up." Xiao Qing Qing didn't pay any attention to the small incident just now. Her right hand was still hanging in the air as her eyes were tightly staring at the bracelet.

Riko followed her gaze away, no longer bringing up that annoying woman. "Miss, are you still thinking about the origins of this bracelet?"

He had followed his mistress for more than five years, but he had never seen her have such an object before. However, one year ago, after she had slept for a long time, a dark green bracelet appeared in her hands. This mystery hadn't been solved after all these years.

However, to say that he forgot that this bracelet was bought by the Miss was nothing special. Although it looked like an old item, it was something that could be bought easily on the streets.

I really don't know why the young mistress cares so much.

"Right." Xiao Qing suddenly turned her wrist, and her gaze fell on the light pattern near her elbow.

"Miss, please don't think about it anymore. Didn't you already ask the people below to investigate? If there is any news, they will definitely tell you immediately."

"Indeed, but ?" Xiao Qing suddenly narrowed her eyes. She had a nagging feeling that something wasn't right.

Riko lowered the fruit plate even further so that her master could easily touch it. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing?" Xiao Qing then shook her head, and half-closed her eyes as she took another piece and stuffed it into her mouth: "Is there any news from Mother Hui?"

"Not today, but I believe it will be soon." Just as Riko was speaking, a brown pigeon suddenly appeared outside the window.

The pigeon was brimming with vigor and vitality. Its wings were larger and more powerful than that of an ordinary house pigeon. Even its cries were especially powerful.

Riko immediately put down the fruit plate and grabbed the pigeon. She took out the note tied around its ankle. She turned around and said with a smile, "We were looking forward to this. They've sent a message."

Li Er opened the letter and quickly skimmed through it before saying, "Miss, Liu Suifeng's whereabouts have basically been confirmed. Mother Hua intends to set up a board tomorrow to lure him out and ask if Miss wants to come as well."

Xiao Qing raised her eyebrows and twirled her fingers. Her nails revealed the fragrance of lemon: "The Residence will probably be in a mess these next two days. I'm too lazy to act with them, so I might as well go to the Flower Pavilion to hide."

"That's great, Mother Hua will definitely be happy to see Miss. You haven't seen her for quite some time." Riko's eyes curved as she continued saying, "Also, Mother Hui mentioned the matter regarding the Zhao manor."

In the afternoon, those people from the infirmary were called to the Zhao manor to see Young Noble Zhao's injuries. They said that man was raped and ruthlessly treated by Xiao Xiyu after his life was cut off by someone. Right now, that thing is basically useless, and I'm afraid that he will never be able to touch a woman again.

"This is just right. I'll teach him a lesson. It can be considered as an explanation for the girls who were taken advantage of by him previously."

Zhao Chen had a reputation as a popinjay in the capital city for more than a day or two. He had probably done this many times already.

"Miss is right." Riko nodded her head heavily as she agreed. Her gaze swept across the contents of the paper slip as she frowned, "They even said that Zhao Xin'er had been drugged as well."

As she said this, she stole a glance at Xiao Qing Ran.

The latter did not deny it, "I did. I was planning on finding an excuse for the infirmary to investigate this matter. If I had known earlier, I would have saved myself the trouble of finding Zhao Chen."

"Hmm, those people from the infirmary also felt that it was Miss's trick, so they started to investigate and found out that the Zhao family was a distant relative of the empress. They had been secretly exchanging information with the imperial palace for so many years."

Xiao Qingyi frowned, "The Zhao Family is actually related to the empress?"

He had followed Su Qian to the palace a few times and met with the empress a few times, but he had no idea about this.

"It's normal that Miss doesn't know. Although the empress's family is prominent in the capital, the Zhao family is a branch of the family that was cut off many years ago. They had to help the empress in private in order to make things convenient for her."

Xiao Qing lowered her eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything else?"

She had a vague feeling that the matter was not that simple.

"I don't have anything else, but if Miss wants to know more, I'll ask them to send the information over in a few days."

"There's no need. Didn't Mother say that the show would begin tomorrow? I'll go and watch again tomorrow." Xiao Qing Ran's eyes flashed as she continued to instruct, "Also, tell the people below to keep an eye on the situation in the crown prince's residence. However, just keep an eye on them and not act rashly."

Based on Su Qian Xing's personality, the theft of the dark booklet shouldn't be passed over so easily. If he guessed correctly, he would take action soon.

"Yes." Riko lowered her eyes in response, but did not retreat as usual. Instead, she stood there, wanting to say something, but hesitated.

Xiao Qingran looked at her and let out a soft sigh: "Did you want to ask me why I did this?"

It seemed like she should speak the truth as well. Perhaps the next step would be beyond her imagination, so she had to ask the people below to prepare themselves.
