Chapter 42: The Truth

Nalan Xi turned her eyes, and the maid on the ground squatted down slightly and pushed her.

"Ah, don't kill me" The maid woke up and screamed in terror, then raised her eyes to see that there were people standing beside her.

Facing Nalan Xi's cold and deep gaze, her heart trembled again.

"Lingqiu?" Seeing the maid's face, Lan Jiang asked, "How could you..., didn't you bring Xi'er to change clothes?" ”

This is the person who serves him closely in his courtyard, and Nalan Jiang still remembers her clearly.

"Xiangye, slave... Slave maid..."Faced with Nalan Jiang's sudden question, Lingqiu hesitated and didn't know how to answer.

She subconsciously glanced at Nalan Ling and quickly looked away.

The people present may not have noticed this small scene, but Nalan Xi saw it with sharp eyes.

"You confess everything honestly, I may be able to spare your life" Nalan Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Lingqiu coldly.

"Slave..."Lingqiu was frightened in her heart, hesitated in her heart, and looked at Nalan Ling again.

"Idiot" Nalan Ling cursed secretly in her heart and glared at her fiercely.

Looking at her so blatantly, didn't he explain to the people present that they knew each other.

Nalan Ling regretted that he was going to die, how could he send such an undercover agent to Nalan Jiang Courtyard, it was simply too stupid.

Lingqiu saw Nalan Ling glaring at her viciously, her face turned white subconsciously, and she turned her gaze away.

"Who gave you this hairpin?" Nalan Xi lifted the silver hairpin,

"What do you think about the most, how to answer" Seeing that Lingqiu's face turned pale in an instant, Nalan Xi reminded him slowly.

"This..."Lingqiu grabbed his sleeve tightly with his hand, gritted his teeth and spoke, "This is what the second lady gave me"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Nalan Ling scolded.

"What does Nalan Ling tell you and the manservant in the house to do?" Nalan Xi glanced at Nalan Ling and spoke again at Lingqiu.

Nalan Ling's gaze stared at Lingqiu for a moment, and that gaze seemed to stare her through a hole.

"The silver hairpin was given to me by the second lady, and the young lady saw that the slave maid took care of the master hard, so she forced it into the slave maid."

Lingqiu closed his eyes tightly, and when he looked up again, his eyes were already determined.

"As for what the eldest lady said, what the second lady told the slave, the slave didn't know this."

The faces of the few people present changed again when they heard Lingqiu's words.

The corners of Nalan Ling's lips hooked up a smug smile, and seeing Nalan Xi's brows furrowed, her heart was simply happy.

I didn't expect you to be smart, Nalanxi.

When Lingqiu was sent to Nalan Jiang Courtyard, when she sent Lingqiu and the manservant to insult Nalan Xi, she had already threatened Lingqiu's family.

Nalan Xi's face sank, "Do you know the consequences of lying?" ”

Nalan Xi's face suddenly sank, and Lingqiu was startled.

"The slave didn't lie", swallowed her saliva, and met the cold gaze above her head, Lingqiu still spoke.

She was afraid, she was afraid that if she told the truth, her family would be harmed, and Nalan Ling threatened her family.

If the whole family is hurt because of her, what face will she have to live.

Gu Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister heard it, what Lingqiu said herself," Nalan Ling said with a smug face.

"Sister next time, let's figure things out first, don't be wronging my sister" Nalan Ling pretended to be kind, the corners of his lips hooked into a smile, and reminded you.

Nalan Xi looked at Lingqiu, who was trembling on the ground, she knew that this maid was afraid of death, otherwise she would faint when she made a move.
