Chapter 228 Princess Yi passed away
Soon, Princess Yi arrived.
When she saw the injured servant, Princess Yi was furious. "Qin Jianjian, what are you doing?"
Qin's face gradually turned pale. "I... I don't know either..."
"Did you take the wrong medicine so late at night?"
Seeing the injured servant covered in blood, he was worried that someone might die, so he quickly ordered, "Send him to the infirmary."
Qin gradually realized that he had gotten into trouble and felt a little ashamed. "Mother..."
Princess Yi glared at her sternly, "You better reflect on this!"
"I haven't had any monthly allowance for the past two months!"
After saying this, Princess Yi tightened her coat around her and turned to leave.
After everyone left, Qin gradually fell to the ground weakly, not understanding what was wrong with him.
Recalling the feeling at that time, it seemed... when the stool hit the other person's head, she felt very happy.
When she realized this, her hair stood on end.
How could she be like this!
……
The next day.
The injured servant came back safe and sound after being bandaged at the clinic, and Qin gradually breathed a sigh of relief.
Princess Yi treated her as usual, as if nothing had happened.
"You haven't been looking well lately, so I asked someone to make you some chicken soup to nourish you." Princess Yi picked up a piece of chicken for her.
"Thank you, mother." Qin Jianjian was about to eat.
Suddenly, Princess Yi said nonchalantly, "Lu Qingheng has really changed recently. He works hard and never complains to your brother."
"Her spirit was worn out so quickly?"
Qin gradually became nervous. "She has nothing now but her brother. She must have figured it out."
Upon hearing this, Princess Yi's expression turned grim. "If that's the case, there's no way to force her to leave."
"Try harder."
Qin Jian's heart sank, and he nodded, "I'll think of a way."
Thinking of Lu Qingheng who refused to leave, Qin gradually became annoyed again.
I buried my head in eating, and the more I ate, the more irritated I became.
After lunch, Qin Jianjian deliberately called Lu Qingheng over and pointed at the leftovers on the table with his eyes.
"Your lunch."
Lu Qingheng's eyes just flashed, "I'm not hungry."
As she said that, she poured all the food into the泔水袋 and prepared to take it away.
Qin gradually became angry and tripped her. Lu Qingheng stumbled and the泔水袋 fell to the ground, spilling some of the泔水.
Seeing this, Qin Jianjian said angrily: "You can't even walk properly, what are you doing eating!"
"Eat the food that spilled on the floor!"
The sharp scolding startled the maids sweeping outside the yard.
"Did I hear that right? She made Madam eat swill?"
"This is too much!"
Lu Qingheng was unmoved. He picked up the swill and left, "I'll come and clean it up."
But Qin Jianjian rushed over to stop her, "I told you to eat what's on the ground!"
Seeing that Lu Qingheng didn't move, Qin Jian grabbed her hair and pushed her to the ground.
Perhaps because he hadn't eaten much for days and was very tired, Lu Qingheng didn't have the strength to struggle and was pushed to the ground.
Qin Jian pushed Lu Qingheng's head into the泔水袋.
The servants outside the courtyard gathered around to watch and were all stunned.
"Let me go!" Lu Qingheng struggled hard, but couldn't break free from Qin Jianjian's hand.
Just then, Qin Beihuang came back.
When he saw the servants gathered here, he walked forward in confusion, and when he saw the scene in the yard, his face suddenly changed.
"Qingheng!"
He rushed forward and pushed Qin Jianjian away, then slapped him angrily.
"Qin Jianjian, are you crazy?"
Qin Jianjian was slapped to the ground, his cheeks red and swollen.
Qin Beihuang immediately helped Lu Qingheng up from the ground. Seeing Lu Qingheng's pale and haggard face, he felt distressed.
During this period, he was training in the army. He also knew that his mother and Qingheng were not on good terms. The two of them kept complaining to him, which really upset him. So he lived in the army and seldom came back.
I thought Qingheng was the type of person who would never suffer any loss or injustice, but I didn't expect that in just a few days, he would become so haggard!
Qin Jianjian bullied him into this state, forcing him to drink slop from the slop bucket!
Qin Beihuang's face was filled with anger, and he shouted angrily:
"Qin Jianjian, she's your sister-in-law! Who gave you the courage to treat her like this?"
Qin Jianjian's mind began to buzz and went blank.
At this moment, Lu Qingheng suddenly fainted.
"Qingheng!" Qin Beihuang called out anxiously and hugged her quickly.
Seeing that she was unconscious, he picked her up and hurried back to the house, "Quickly call a doctor!"
Soon, the doctor came.
After taking Lu Qingheng's pulse, he said, "Madam, this is caused by overwork and not eating."
"Looking at this situation, it seems that he hasn't had a good meal for many days."
Hearing this, Qin Beihuang's face turned pale.
How could they be so vicious that they didn't even give Qingheng food to eat?
Afraid of wrongly accusing Qin Jianjian, Qin Beihuang then summoned the maids to question them one by one.
The answer he got left him dumbfounded.
Not only were they not given food, they were also required to work twice as hard and were not allowed to rest.
The abuse of Qingheng reached a crazy level.
After hearing this, Qin Beihuang slammed his fist on the table and said, "Call Qin Jianjian over here!"
Soon, Qin Jian walked to the door with his head down, not daring to make a sound.
"Kneel outside! Don't get up without my order!" Qin Beihuang said in a stern tone.
Qin Jianjian obediently knelt down in the yard, kneeling straight.
After the medicine was ready, Qin Beihuang woke up Lu Qingheng and fed her the medicine.
His eyes were full of guilt.
"Qingheng, I'm sorry. I've been too busy lately and ignored the bullying you suffered at home." Qin Beihuang's movements were cautious and gentle.
A tear slipped across Lu Qingheng's eye, and he smiled bitterly, "For you, this little bit of suffering doesn't matter."
"I know that in your heart, I am not the same as before, but I don't want to be separated from you. As long as I can be with you, I am willing to endure any grievances."
Hearing this, Qin Beihuang felt even more uncomfortable.
After all, Qingheng just loves him too much, which is why he becomes like this.
"We will never be apart, ever."
Qin Beihuang said as he continued to feed her medicine.
While drinking the medicine, Lu Qingheng accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure kneeling in the yard. She looked puzzled for a moment, "Gradually she..."
"I'm punishing her! If I don't teach her a lesson, she'll almost forget who she is! I'll take charge of this time!"
Hearing this, Lu Qingheng's eyes dimmed, "Actually, I don't blame her."
"She just wanted to live a good life, and since I couldn't give her what she wanted, she tried to force me to leave."
"I couldn't keep two children in a row. My mother has a problem with me. I know that."
"I am unfilial."
"I deserve all this."
Seeing her criticizing him so harshly, Qin Beihuang felt a tightness in his heart, and he became even more suffocated. "Qingheng, this is not your fault."
"I am also responsible for the loss of my child."
"We are still young. Once you recover, we can have more children."
Lu Qingheng nodded and leaned on Qin Beihuang's chest.
His eyes swept over Qin Jianjian who was kneeling outside the door, and the hatred in his eyes could hardly be hidden.
It's almost over.
On this day, Qin Beihuang was particularly considerate and gentle in his care for her, which made Qin Jianjian kneel outside for a whole day without any mercy.
Even the Princess Yi who came to persuade her was scolded by Qin Beihuang. "Mother, if Qin Jianjian is not severely punished, there will be no peace in this family! Qin Jianjian dared to act so willfully because of your indulgence. Mother, you should go back and think carefully."
At that moment, Lu Qingheng felt as if everything had returned to the way it was before.
Qin Beihuang still loves her.
That night, the two slept in each other's arms.
Lu Qingheng slept very soundly, and every time he woke up and saw Qin Beihuang's face, he felt at ease.
However, late at night, Qin Beihuang suddenly muttered twice.
Lu Qingheng woke up and wanted to wake him up, but he heard him say: "Ning Wan... I'm sorry, please forgive me... I'm sorry..."
