Old Man Liu"s expression became even darker and darker. He coldly looked at Zhong Qing and pursed her lips, "Second brother, this old man said that you were a smart person, but you made the mistake that a smart person must make, that"s just being too self-righteous." Did she really think that what she had done could be hidden from him?Previously, he had opened his eyes and closed them, so he didn"t want to argue with her. But now, he had no choice but to do so.
If she did not properly clean up, her reputation would flip the sky.
Zhong Qing"s heart trembled again as she looked at Old Man Liu. She curled her lips and said, "My wife, you don"t understand what father is saying?" If it wasn"t for her holding Liu Zhilan"s hand constantly increasing her strength, she really would have thought that she was as calm as she was.
Liu Zhilan bit her lower lip, raised her head and looked at Zhong Qing, not daring to say that her hand was hurting.
She was afraid of being scolded by her mother.
Old Man Liu glanced at Zhong Qing, shouted coldly towards the door, and brought her in.
Bring them in?
He turned to the door and saw a guard pushing a rainbow into the room. His expression changed.
Wasn"t the rainbow dead? How could she …
Finished …
She closed her eyes tightly, feeling that she was really done for this time.
Liu Zhilan took another look at Zhong Qing, and called her mother softly.
Didn"t mother say that Rainbow was already dead? Why is she still here?
Rainbow staggered and knelt on the ground. After timidly looking at Zhong Qing, she opened her mouth and said, "Greetings, Grand Old Master."
Old Man Liu swept his eyes across her, "Tell me, who ordered you to push a small pond like this?" He was glad that he had been able to swim a few times, or else …
He didn"t dare to think about the consequences …
Thinking about this matter, he wished he could hack the mastermind into a thousand pieces.
They were of the same family, but how much hatred did they have to do such a thing to a child?
Rainbow kneeled on the ground, trembling all over, saying in a hoa.r.s.e voice that she didn"t know, didn"t know anything.
Don"t know?
What a great "I don"t know"...
Old Man Liu angrily slapped the table heavily, with a bang, the table shattered. His eyes became even gloomier as he stared at the rainbow, "Who gave you the guts to deny it? Ah? Don"t you know that every single move you make is being watched? " Her behavior was exactly the same as her master"s, so she wanted to deny it.
Hearing Old Man Liu"s words, Rainbow"s body trembled even more. She kowtowed a few times, and continued to say that she did not know.
Old Man Liu did not have the patience to talk so much with her, he directly ordered his to torture him until he was willing to do so.
Just this kind of maid almost caused his great-granddaughter to die. If it wasn"t for him pointing out who the mastermind was, would he have kept her alive?
It was too late for her.
Torture?
These words scared Rainbow so much that she crawled forward a few steps, begging Old Man Liu to let her go.
Without even glancing at her, Old Man Liu raised his hand and the guards brought the torture instruments up.
All sorts of torture instruments made Rainbow"s body go limp.
The bodyguards had no mercy as they hanged Yu and prepared to twist the fingers of the rainbow.
Before they could do anything, Rainbow couldn"t hold out any longer. She said that she couldn"t stand being pampered and making her young miss feel wronged, so she pushed her into the lotus pond on her own accord.
How dare a small maid push his master into the lotus pond on her own?
If these words were spoken, it would cause others to laugh their teeth off.
That was too fake, that was too fake.
Not to mention that Old Man Liu would not believe it, even the guards were speechless when they heard this.
To be a servant or servant, who wouldn"t act based on their master"s intentions? Who would dare to act on their own? It was not because they thought that their lives were too long and dared to do such a thing over their master.
If they failed to do so, it would implicate their master. Who would dare to do such a thing?
As a maid, Rainbow wasn"t something that could be done in a day or two. How could she still be so reckless?
Old Man Liu snorted and glanced at the guard. The guard immediately used all his strength to hang him, and in the next moment, he heard the miserable shrieks of the rainbow.
Pain …
It was too painful...
Her fingers were linked to her heart, and she felt a deep pain seeping into her bones.
"F …" Madame... Miss, help... "Save me, your servant." The pain was so excruciating that she could not bear it any longer.
Zhong Qing"s expression darkened as she looked warily at Rainbow. "You deceived me and did such a thing. I haven"t punished you, yet you still dare to plead with us?" She just couldn"t understand how the rainbow came to life.
She had clearly heard it said that the rainbow had died.
If not for this, she would not have faced Old Man Liu this confidently.
She felt that there were no secrets that could be hidden from Old Man Liu anymore.
No wonder Old Man Liu was able to say something like that, he was too confident.
If he wanted to turn back now, he wouldn"t be able to, so he could only force himself not to admit it.
Rainbow saw through the warning in Zhong Qing"s eyes, she bit her lower lip, despair in her eyes.
She had died once. After being saved, she did not have the courage to die a second time. She wanted to live.
However, it was very obvious that the Madam did not want to save her and wanted her to die.
Her eyes shifted downwards, meeting Liu Zhilan"s eyes. Before she even had the chance to open her mouth to ask for help, she could only watch helplessly as Liu Zhilan pulled behind Zhong Qing.
"Miss... "I have served you for so many years, I beg of you, I beg of you …"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted again by Zhong Qing. "You did such a wicked thing, and it has already damaged the reputation of the young miss. How dare you ask the young miss for help, hmm?" She narrowed her eyes slightly and warned Rainbow with her eyes. If she continued to plead for mercy, then she shouldn"t blame her for taking action against her family.
This time, Rainbow was in complete despair.
After they finished speaking, Old Man Liu spoke out once again. To make Rainbow confess, who had made her do this kind of evil scheme.
Rainbow lowered her head, looking at her badly mutilated fingers, "This servant acted on her own, it has nothing to do with anyone."
Hearing this, a look of satisfaction flashed across her lovable eyes. That"s more like it.
Old Man Liu who was seated in the seat of honor saw the expressions of everyone below him, and was even more satisfied with what was in Zhong Qing"s eyes.
He tapped his fingers on the armrest, causing a thumping sound to ring out. Everyone present trembled upon hearing this.
After a long while, he said with a faint smile, "Very good."
It"s really great.
He was still unwilling to admit it even after coming to this land?
"Your mother and father worked in the mansion as servants, right?"
Finished speaking, Rainbow suddenly raised her head, looked at Old Man Liu, and begged him to let go of her father and mother, it was her fault, it had nothing to do with them.
The big snake hitting seven inches, when Old Man Liu"s words. .h.i.t seven inches of the rainbow, it made her instantly fl.u.s.tered.
It also let Old Man Liu know that as long as he managed to grab hold of Rainbow"s mother, he would be able to get to the bottom of the matter.
"Someone, bring him here."
Finished speaking, the imperial bodyguard walked in with Rainbow"s mother in tow.
"Father, mother …" Rainbow trembled as she shouted. It was her fault that her parents were implicated by her.
"Hong"er …" Rainbow"s mother saw her daughter being punished and cried out in heartache. Her eyes were extremely red, "Grand Old Master, I beg you, please let my daughter go. "She"s still young, she didn"t mean it."
Old Man Liu replied. Wasn"t it intentional to personally push Master down the Lotus Pond? Either it was intentional or it was intentional.
What?
Rainbow"s parents were greatly shocked. They never thought that their daughter would make such a huge mistake. She actually dared to push her master down the lotus pond?
Rainbow"s mother threw herself at Rainbow"s side, holding her shoulders and miserably crying out, "Hong"er, what"s going on?" How could you push Master into the lotus pond? Mother knows you don"t have the guts, so there must be some sort of misunderstanding, right?
Rainbow cried loudly when he saw his mother.
She didn"t know how to protect her parents.
As if he saw through her thoughts, Old Man Liu said that as long as she could point out the masterminds, he would let go of her parents.
Hearing that, Rainbow raised his head, "Grand Elder, is what you said true?" If it"s true, she. She would tell him the truth and not take any more responsibility for the murder of her master.
Old Man Liu glanced at Zhong Qing, who looked like she wanted to say something. With that glance, Old Man Liu allowed Zhong Qing to swallow the words that were about to leave his mouth.
"A word from a gentleman..."
With Old Man Liu"s words, Rainbow uneasily calmed down. She turned around and glanced at Liu Zhilan who was standing behind Zhong Rou, and said with a choked of sobs: "Miss really hates little miss. When I saw little miss playing by the Lotus Pond, little miss had this servant push little miss down there …"
"Lowly servant …" "Shut your mouth." Liu Zhilan screamed out, forcefully interrupting Rainbow"s words, "Grandfather, this lowly slave is lying, I did not order her to push a small pond full of flowers, I did not, believe me."
Old Man Liu looked at Liu Zhilan, seeing her panic-stricken expression, his tone became even colder, "As the young mistress of the Liu Family, you are just a lowly servant, where is your education? "Hmm?" Without mentioning anything else, just Liu Zhilan"s education made the Liu Family lose all face, "Look at me. Say what you said again."
Facing Old Man Liu"s cold eyes, Liu Zhilan"s body trembled. She quickly lowered his eyes and opened her mouth, but no words came out.
"Dad, no matter what, Xiaolan is still your granddaughter. Don"t tell me you don"t even trust your own granddaughter?" Zhong Qing shook her daughter"s hand, silently comforting her so that she didn"t have to be afraid and wouldn"t admit it even if she bit her own head.
Old Man Liu"s gaze turned to Zhong Qing, and blandly said something that caused Zhong Qing"s entire body to go cold: "Second brother, what do you think about the Liu Estate that this old man does not know?" Pausing for a moment, he continued, "I wanted to let you guys know that I wanted to give you guys a chance, but who would"ve thought that you guys would let me down."
"Wifey …"
Lifting his hand, Old Man Liu stopped Zhong Qing"s words, "There"s no need to explain to this old man anymore, this old man knows very well." Then, he looked at Liu Zhilan with a fierce gaze, "Zhi Lan, you"re a good boy that knows your wrongs. Otherwise …"
Before she finished speaking, Liu Zhilan was so scared that he started crying.
Love"s shoulders drooped. It was a foregone conclusion.
Old Man Liu let out a faint sigh, and asked the guards to bring Rainbow and the others down, and coldly said, Zhi Lan will go to the temple to give Little Qi a year"s worth of blessings before coming back!
Mo Er and the others would definitely be satisfied with such a punishment.
