Chapter 600 - 600 Qiao Lanlan’s Death
The servant shouted angrily, “Ungrateful bitch, you ingrate! Master saved you and gave you a chance to take revenge, yet this is how you repay him!” “You saved me?
“Don’t forget, it was your Master who used our Qiao family first. Otherwise, I would still be the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.
“Now, you’re ordering me around and making me wait on people in the kitchen full of oil and smoke. Is this your definition of saving me?” Qiao Lanlan shouted angrily.
“But Master did save your life!”
“Aren’t you trying to kill me now?”
“You…” The servant didn’t know how to respond to that statement.
Seeing this, King Rui looked at Qiao Lanlan in surprise. He didn’t expect her not to know that Old Master Qiao had sided with the First Prince.
However, this was fine. It would be better to focus their attention on the Fourth Prince. They would be able to spill more secrets this way.
He looked at Qiao Lanlan and said, “If he doesn’t want to tell me, why don’t you tell me? Tell me everything you know. I’ll give you a quick death and a grand burial.”
Qiao Lanlan looked at him in surprise and asked, “Are you lying to me?”
“Is there a need for me to lie to a dying person like you?”
“I…” Qiao Lanlan revealed everything when she heard that.
However, Seventh Su no longer valued her after her elder brother died. Otherwise, he would not have let her be a maid at King Rui’s residence.
Therefore, she knew very little.
She did, however, mention a piece of useful information. The famous brothel in the capital, Yixiang Courtyard, was the property of Seventh Su.
The crime of running a brothel was no lighter than the crime of dabbling in the loan shark business.
Moreover, this was the largest brothel in the capital.
This was very advantageous leverage.
“Is there anything else?” King Rui asked again.
Qiao Lanlan shook her head.
King Rui then looked at the servant. “This is your last chance, or I’ll kill your entire family.”
“I heard that it’s a pity that your twins would have to die at only eight months old.” Uncle Feng said as he took out a pair of small silver locks with bells.
When the servant saw the thing in his hand, his face was filled with disbelief. He thought he had hidden his identity very well but did not expect…
At the thought of this, he suddenly felt that the remaining strength in his body had been sucked away.
He looked at King Rui and asked, “If I confess, can you spare my family?”
“If you want them to live, you shouldn’t be in a hurry to die. You should be thinking about how to cooperate with us and not let your master find out that something has happened to you.
“Otherwise, we wouldn’t need to do anything, and your family would still die.”
The servant looked at him in shock and asked uncertainly, “You want me to help you spy on them?”
King Rui nodded and ignored him after that.
The servant hesitated for a long time before finally agreeing.
“Very good. I hope you can keep your promise.” King Rui turned around and left after that.
When Uncle Feng saw this, he was not in a hurry to take Qiao Lanlan’s life. Instead, he locked her up in the dungeon.
As for the servant boy, although he was released, he was secretly monitored. At the same time, his family was also under surveillance.
On the afternoon of the second day, Qiao Lanlan’s evil deeds were announced, and a bowl of poison sentenced her to death. She was then buried on a mountain in a thin coffin.
In the afternoon, Gu Wanning was practicing in the yard when Sun Miaoke walked in and asked in surprise, “I didn’t expect Sister Gu to know martial arts.”
“Greetings, Sister.” Gu Wanning stopped and bowed.
She stood up and replied, “It’s not really martial arts, but when I was in the Yang residence, my cousin was worried about my safety, so he asked my cousin-in-law to teach me a few self-defense techniques.
“They could be used for self-defense during dangerous times, and secondly, it’s great as a workout, so I kept practicing it..”
