Some of the employees heard the crying and came out to take a look. They were so frightened that their legs went limp and they sat on the ground. Recently, Old Man Duan had become more and more fond of drinking wine, so Lady Wang told everyone that he died from drinking wine.

Ever since he had finished dealing with Old Man Duan's matters, his Lady Wang had been tightly closed as he ordered no one to be allowed to enter. Others only thought that she was overly sad. She would only have to rest for two days.

Who knew that she would hang herself if she couldn't bear it?

When he brought down the Lady Wang, he found out that she had actually already been dead for two days.

Speaking of this Duan Clan's farmland, which one of the Fujiang Village s didn't feel envy? But now, one, one, two lives had been lost. It was truly a sight to hear. The people in the village discussed in private, mentioning that on the night of Old Man Duan's death, they seemed to hear the sound of a horse's hooves. Their voices were chaotic, and they were afraid that the matter wasn't simple. Subsequently, news spread that Old Man Duan had actually been found out for revenge, and even his Lady Wang had suffered.

Immediately after, all the workers in the farmhouse music nodded and said that they seemed to have heard the sounds of horses' hooves that night, and very soon, they heard Lady Wang's sobbing. However, it was too late in the night and they were confused about what had happened. When they woke up the next day, they heard the news about Old Man Duan falling to his death due to drunkenness.

Now that they thought about it, everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety. Even the villagers were feeling restless.

Duan Xiaohe gave them money and told them to go home for a while. She said that the farmhouse was not open for business for the near future. If she didn't have anywhere to go in the future and wanted to come back, she would welcome him at any time.

The waiters took the money and left, not a single one remaining.

In the village, a few people who were good with the Duan Clan took the initiative to stay and help out. After helping Lady Wang get into the mourning hall, the Duan Clan's younger brothers and sisters came back.

The two children looked at the white cloth hanging on the door, then at the coffin in the hall, their faces filled with fear. Duan Xiaoshen recognized the word after entering the academy. From afar, he saw the word on the ranking, and with a thump, he knelt down.

"Mother!"

After Duan Xiaoyue heard this address, her face became pale white, she finally understood in her heart that she had lost her mother, and she knelt outside together with her brother, crying non-stop.

This yell was miserable and sorrowful, and those who received the news in the village could not bear to hear it. The Duan Clan had suffered through so many years, and they finally managed to recover a little. However, a few days ago, their father had just died, and then their mother. These two children were really pitiful.

Duan Xiaohe came out wearing hemp clothes, and the two children immediately jumped into her embrace when they saw her.

"Sis, what's wrong with mother? Why did they just say 'dead'? Where's dad? Where did father go? "

Duan Xiaohe's heart felt so tight that she couldn't even open her mouth to speak about Old Man Duan's matter. The two children were smart to begin with, but when they saw her absent-minded and sorrowful appearance, they suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, the siblings turned their heads and saw that there was another memorial tablet in the hall. It belonged to Old Man Duan!

Duan Xiaoyue cried until she could barely breathe. However, it was Duan Xiaoshen who asked her, "What happened to Father and Mother?"

She looked at the two tablets, her heart aching. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth, "It's all my fault. It's all my fault."

On the day of the funeral, Liu Family received news that Old Man Liu's body was not good enough, he had to take care of the child, so Liu Er came over alone. He poked his head with the incense and kowtowed, finding an opportunity to ask Duan Xiaohe. Who are those people? They will come again? "

She didn't know how to answer him. Liu Er felt a burst of lingering fear in his heart, and his voice also became a bit louder.

"Those people stayed in my house for a few days, and my father became sick from fright. If this happens again, our family won't have to live anymore. You've harmed Old Third, and also harmed your parents. Duan Xiaohe, just what kind of person did you offend? If you can't do it, then run away, don't come back here and harm anyone! "

Duan Xiaoshen suddenly rushed out from somewhere and kicked Liu Er's leg. That kind of ruthlessness was something that Duan Xiaohe had never seen before.

Duan Xiaohe pulled his brother away and let him go out to play first. Duan Xiaohe scrunched her face and clenched her fists.

"What did he mean? Who are those people? My father wasn't drunk to death, but they did it to my parents? "

Seeing that she did not speak, Duan Xiaoshen became anxious. Sis, say something! "

Duan Xiaohe clenched her teeth, and finally opened her mouth.

"I have offended someone and implicated my parents."

Duan Xiaoshen did not think that she would admit to this, and was immediately stunned. Who did you offend? Didn't you know the County Princess and the county lord? Why would anyone dare to do such a thing? "The Son of Heaven has violated the law and has also sinned with the commoners. Let's go to the capital, let's go seek justice for our parents!"

She stopped Duan Xiaoshen who was about to run outside. Previously, this child was extremely timid, but after reading the words, he became more bold. But at this moment, how could she dare to let him go to the capital?

"I've just come from Beijing, the capital has been in a state of chaos for the past two days. Let's talk about it later."

After persuading Duan Xiaoshen to leave, she remembered what he had told him before he left.

"A letter that I asked you to deliver for me …"

"What you said before you left was scary. After those people left, I got someone to write a letter to send it out, and I heard that the northern troop is currently in South Zhangzhou, and the road is not far anyway. I think that by now, the letter is already in the hands of that Wen."

Duan Xiaohe's heart stopped. She didn't know whether or not she was alive back then, and she couldn't openly say that she was going to die. That's why she said those words. He never thought that the usually lazy Liu Er would actually be so diligent in this matter.

It was just that there were too many things on his hands at the moment, so Duan Xiaohe couldn't care less about the letter. After she finished dealing with the matters of the Lady Wang, Duan Xiaohe was about to bring her brother and sister back to the county city.

Duan Xiaoshen kept his temper and said that he would not go to the Academy. Duan Xiaohe did not even try to persuade him. Duan Xiaoyue listened to some gossip, and saw her attitude become colder and colder by the day. From time to time, he would look at her with suspicion, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

After some thought, she decided to let them both stay at home. After all, it was safer for both of them to stay here by themselves than to follow her.

When she arrived at Qinghe County City, Duan Xiaohe immediately went to the Fancy Dress area. Liu Wang was extremely busy inside, he did not manage to find anyone from the Manager Zhang, so she could only grab a shop assistant and ask.

The shop assistant shook his head, saying that he had already not seen Manager Zhang for quite a number of times. Just as Duan Xiaohe was pondering, He Sheng walked in with a few cloths in his arms. Seeing Duan Xiaohe, He Sheng was startled.

"Where's the Manager Zhang?"

He Sheng pressed the corner of his lips together and whispered a single word: Warehouse.

She quickly ran to the warehouse, but as soon as she entered, she was ruthlessly controlled by the two people guarding the warehouse under Manager Zhang's command.

It's me, it's me, Duan Xiaohe, your wages, it's me, let go!

Just then, Manager Zhang came out from inside and made a hand gesture for the two to let go of her. Just as she stood up, she ran in front of Manager Zhang and anxiously asked: "Is Qin Rui back yet?"

Manager Zhang's eyes were filled with ice. He quickly grabbed her wrist and held it in his hand. It was as if he wanted to crush her wrist to pieces.

"It's good that you came. I didn't have to come to find you."

Duan Xiaohe was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Manager Zhang snorted, and stuffed something into her mouth. There was a taste of medicine in her mouth, and she suddenly felt sick.

"What did you feed me?"

"Poison."

"Duan Xiaohe's entire body went cold, and she roughly understood in her heart that Manager Zhang would only do this if something happened to Qin Rui." Qin Rui didn't come back? "

"I didn't expect you to have such a relationship with that little emperor. If I knew earlier, I would have used your head to exchange for master's antidote. This would have saved him from suffering for two to three years in vain."

Duan Xiaohe's heartbeat missed two beats, and she had indeed forgotten about the residual poison in Qin Rui's body without a conscience. Ever since he destroyed the poison in Qin Rui's body the last time, he disappeared for a period of time. When she returned, he already said that she had detoxified the poison, but there was still some residual poison in his body.

Until now, he hadn't shown any sign of discomfort, so she had unscrupulously forgotten about this matter.

Now that he thought about it, although Qin Rui would disappear once in awhile, looking like he was avoiding the Little County Princess and Mo Jinyuan, in reality, those few days were the days when he was infected with the poison.

Duan Xiaohe was dumbstruck. Manager Zhang pushed her away and sneered: No need to feel guilty. Just now, when you ate that thing, the poison would be even worse.

After hearing what Manager Zhang had said, she felt his head grow dizzy, then his vision turned black and he fainted.

Manager Zhang looked at the man on the ground coldly and made a hand gesture. One of them went to find a carriage, and the other carried Duan Xiaohe onto it.

The road shook violently, Duan Xiaohe felt pain in her chest, her stomach was also churning extremely hard, she pushed the person in front of him away and was about to vomit. That person probably misunderstood her and wanted to escape, so he caught her and brought her back.

Duan Xiaohe couldn't hold it in, and vomited all over him just like that.

After vomiting, she finally felt better, and could clearly see Manager Zhang's ashen face and stench.

She wiped her mouth, embarrassed.

"I'm sick, I'm sick."

God knows how much she hated taking the carriage. She felt that as long as she took the carriage, nothing good would happen to her!

Sure enough, she managed to escape the capital with great difficulty, and the Manager Zhang sent her back.

The treatment this time was clearly not as good as the previous times. Duan Xiaohe was directly locked in a dark, moldy little house, with a mouse sneaking out from time to time, giving her a fright.

After two days of being afraid, when there were more noises coming from outside, Manager Zhang suddenly pushed open the door and walked in. He was dressed in a black robe and stood in front of him.

"Get up. If you can't get master back today, the little Emperor will be collecting your corpse."
