Chapter 493 - 493 Was about to give him a “surprise.”

493 Was about to give him a “surprise.”

Liang Mingmin also agreed with her mother’s words.

“Mother, why don’t we kill Shi Qingluo? ” she suggested. “Then my imperial father won’t be angry at us because of her.”

Ruan Songling sighed. “I want to, but we don’t have any manpower on our side.”

At this time, the maidservant who had been standing behind the two of them as if she was the background all this time took the initiative to step forward.

She suddenly knelt in front of Ruan Songling. “Princess Consort, I am willing to help.”

Ruan Songling was stunned. “You’re willing to kill Shi Qingluo? ”

The maidservant nodded. “My life was given to me by the princess consort, so I’m willing to do anything for the princess consort.

“Previously, you asked the crown prince to set the fire, but he didn’t agree. I am willing.”

Ruan Songling looked at the girl who had been by her side for several years and did not doubt her loyalty.

“Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

She added, “Get it done as soon as possible.”

“Yes, I will do it secretly tonight,” the servant girl lowered her head and said respectfully.

Then, Ruan Songling told her to go and prepare.

Ruan Songling and her daughter were very satisfied that someone had taken the initiative to do this.

However, after she succeeded, they could not keep this maidservant.

At that time, they would give her family more money as compensation.

On the other hand, Xiao Hanzheng soon received the news from the courtyard.

He had just finished his lunch and was in his room.

Shi Qingluo had not gone out and the two of them had originally planned to take a short nap.

When she saw her little husband’s lips curl up after reading the message, she knew that he was up to no good.

“What’s the matter?” she asked with a smile.

Xiao Hanzheng naturally would not hide it from his wife. “Prince Jin has arrived in the county town.

“As soon as they arrived outside the courtyard where Liang Mingmin and her mother lived, Liang Mingmin rushed out and asked Prince Jin in front of the passers-by to send her his people. She wanted to take them to Heyang County to massacre.”

He didn’t know what to comment about Liang Mingmin. Logically speaking, Prince Jin was a smart person, he wouldn’t have raised such an idiot.

Shi Qingluo was taken aback. “She actually wants to massacre the entire city. That’s too vicious.”

Her moral values was once again upended. Liang Mingmin was not human.

There were so many people living in the county.

Even if the merchants had united and refused to sell Liang Mingmin anything, it was too much to kill all the people in the county as revenge.

Furthermore, she had made such a request with such confidence.

It was clear that Liang Mingmin’s hands had definitely been stained with many lives over the years.

That’s why she looked down on human lives and didn’t take them seriously.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “She’s indeed too vicious. She’ll be a disaster if she’s left alive.

“I’ll get someone to release this news and let everyone know.”

Under normal circumstances, Shi Qingluo would be more tolerant and caring towards women.

After all, in ancient times, women’s lives were more difficult than men’s, and they didn’t have as much freedom.

Just like how she proposed to employ many female workers to work in the major workshops.

For widows in Heyang County who brought up their children alone, she advised the county government to give them some monthly allowance.

Why should a woman make things difficult for other women?

Just like Tao Liu, although she had tried to seduce her young husband, she did not want her to die.

As long as she didn’t scheme against them, she didn’t even think of getting rid of Tao Liu when Xiao Yuanshi’s future was doomed in the future.

Instead, she suggested to her young husband to arrange a backup plan for her and her child.

However, she really could not tolerate vicious women like Liang Mingmin and Little Lady Ge.

“Yes,” she said, “We should let everyone know how vicious she is. In the future, she’ll be a rat on the street that everyone will want to beat.”

Xiao Hanzheng felt extremely disgusted by Liang Mingmin. “I think so too.

“Oh right, get ready tonight. Someone will set the fire. Let’s not let anyone get hurt.”

Shi Qingluo was stunned again. “Who wants to set the fire?”

“Prince Jin’s princess consort and Liang Mingmin wanted to burn us to death, so one of Prince Jin’s princess consort’s maidservants volunteered to do it,” Xiao Hanzheng replied.

Shi Qingluo furrowed his brows. “These two must be sick in the head.”

“You even know this?” she asked Xiao Hanzheng.

Logically speaking, when Prince Jin arrived at that courtyard, he would definitely have a group of strong secret guards by his side. It would not be easy for her young hubby’s people to obtain such secret information.

No matter how stupid Ruan Songling and Liang Mingmin were, they wouldn’t let this kind of information spread out of the courtyard.

Xiao Hanzheng smirked.

“Because that maidservant is one of my people. Previously, Prince Jin’s residence wanted Liang Mingyu to set fire to the place where we lived. It would be best if my mother and I were to be burned to death.

“So two days ago, I hinted to the maidservant that if Prince Jin arrived in the county town and Prince Jin’s princess consort still had the same intention, she should take the initiative to accept the task.

“Then, we will catch her red-handed when she sets the fire. She will also expose Prince Jin’s princess consort in front of everyone.

“After this is over, I’ll have someone secretly send her and her parents to live elsewhere.”

Shi Qingluo didn’t expect her little hubby to be so impressive that he could even bribe the princess consort’s maidservant.

Those who could be purchased to Heyang County by Prince Jin’s princess consort were all trusted aides or people who had served by her side for a long time.

“Why would she listen to you?” she asked curiously.

“I found out that her biological elder brother is not bad looking.” Xiao Hanzheng replied. “He’s also quite talented. He’s a scholar.

“Initially, his whole family was prepared to redeem her and let her get rid of her slave status to marry into a good family.

“Who knew that before her elder brother came to Prince Jin’s residence to redeem her, Liang Mingmin had already taken a fancy to him on the street.

“Then, she forcefully brought her brother back to the royal residence and tortured him to death.

“When a life was lost, Liang Mingmin asked Prince Jin’s princess consort to clean up the mess. That servant girl knew the whole process because she was serving Prince Jin’s princess consort.

“She was sent to Prince Jin’s residence to be a maidservant a long time ago, and she contacted her family in secret. In addition, the pair of mother and daughter in Prince Jin’s residence didn’t take this matter to heart, so they didn’t investigate who are the family members of this scholar.

“They threw that person down the mountain and made it look like he accidentally fell down the mountain and died.

“Prince Jin’s princess consort had also informed her subordinates what to do, and the coroner also concluded that it was an accidental death.

“So, even if the scholar’s family found out the truth through this maidservant, they couldn’t help to seek justice for their son.

“That maidservant also hated Liang Mingmin and her daughter because of this.

“That’s why I could easily buy her over.”

Shi Qingluo sighed, “No wonder.”

Liang Mingmin was really sinful.

“After the incident, send someone to protect the maidservant’s safety. Don’t let Prince Jin’s people kill her,” she said.

Xiao Hanzheng knew that his wife was cruel to her enemies, but she was still soft-hearted to innocent people.

“Don’t worry, ” he said as he held her hand. “Since I promised her that I’d send her family away safely, I’ll make sure she’s safe.”

He didn’t take another afternoon nap. After chatting with Shi Qingluo for a while, he went to make arrangements.

On the other hand.

Prince Jin was tired from the journey and was also very angry with his legitimate daughter, so he was not in the mood to look for Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

He was resting in the courtyard and did not know that his princess consort was about to give him a “surprise.”

As the night grew dark, that maidservant carried a basket out.

Prince Jin’s guard stopped her and asked.

She said that the princess consort suddenly wanted to eat a kind of pastry, but their courtyard didn’t have the ingredients, so she had to go outside to buy them and make it.

The guard knew that the princess consort was a troublemaker, so he let her through immediately. He did not report such a small matter to Prince Jin.
