Xiao Qiao was stunned and felt strange. His questioning and tonight’s events were a bit irrelevant.

After he learned from her that Su Xin had dealings with the country marquis’ wife and read his grandmother’s letter, he changed his face and went out.

At that time, he did not tell her where he had gone. But Xiao Qiao naturally knew he had gone to the post house to find Su E Huang, maybe to confront her.

Until this moment, he returned.

Because they were not ordinary people and the past was involved, thus Xiao Qiao did not dare to make a judgment. However, judging from his face when he returned, it did not seem to go well. But no matter what the outcome, he did not mention a word about Su E Huang after he returned but asked whether she had something to hide from him.

Strange.

Things she was hiding from him popped up in Xiao Qiao’s mind. She had come from a different life. She knew that in his previous life, he not only became the emperor but also had a relationship with Su E Huang and destroyed the Qiao family. She was afraid that in this life, he might turn his face against her own family one day, so she encouraged her father to strengthen his army and stand on his own feet. These she could not tell him, even if he beat her to death.

Xiao Qiao said, “Why are you asking me this suddenly?”

Wei Shao said, “Just answer me.” The tone was stubborn.

“Naturally, I don’t have one.” Xiao Qiao didn’t even blink when she said.

Wei Shao was still looking at her. His fingers gently touched her face, tightened his arms then held her tightly in his embrace.

“Remember, Man man. Do not deceive me.”

Xiao Qiao heard him in her ear, whispering. His hot breath rolled out, ironing her earlobe.

Xiao Qiao’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated a bit. She allowed him to hug her tightly until she was slightly breathless. Then he began to kiss her. Like a child tasting candy, his tongue tenderly and repeatedly licked her cheeks and lips. Her face was wet from licking.

Xiao Qiao wanted to know what happened after he went out tonight.

Su E Huang admitted it or not. And how it turned out. But he seemed to didn’t want to mention it.

Finally, his tongue pried open her teeth. He began to increase in force and suck on her tongue. She closed her eyes and dismissed the thought of asking him.

……

The next day after breakfast.

Xiao Qiao smoothed his lapel before sending him out of the room as usual while asking casually, “Husband, what happened last night? How did it go?”Wei Shao glanced at her. “I punished her with the military rule of attempted murder.” Wei Shao responded, his tone flat.

……

Chun Niang quickly inquired from Mr. Jia about the punishment for attempted murder in the military rules.

Despite all the speculations, Xiao Qiao’s body shivered when she learned it was cutting the nose. The hair on her neck seemed to stand up, and she felt uncomfortable. She naturally would not be so saintly as to sympathize with Su E Huang. No one knew better than herself how scary this woman was.

In the dream of her previous life, Miss Su harmed Mrs. Xu and Da Qiao to achieve her ‘noble fate.’ With the other people’s blood stained her hands, she climbed into Wei Shao’s dragon bed.

Not to mention that imaginary world, in this life, in the real world that exists, Mrs. Xu had also nearly been poisoned by her.

In addition, the lives of other insignificant people acted as stepping stones on her way forward. Letting her get the deserved punishment was a must.

What made Xiao Qiao uncomfortable was perhaps the way Wei Shao treated her. Xiao Qiao felt intimidated and shivering inside.

……

In Xiao Qiao’s letter to Mrs. Xu, she said that Su E Huang had come to Jinyang and settled down. She then asked if there was any follow-up on the incident last year.

The letter from Mrs. Xu said that Old Zhong had been investigating. Previously, there were some clues but without solid evidence. After searching through Mrs. Zhu’s memories, they finally found a woman.

The woman surnamed Ma. She was a witch claiming to have psychic ability. People often ask her to connect themselves with the spirits of the dead.

Mrs. Zhu believes in this, and to communicate with her late husband, she searches for her. Old Jiang also accompanied her. As a result, the woman recognized Old Jiang.

Mrs. Ma said that Old Jiang then came alone to seek herself secretly, begging for communication with her son, who died more than ten years ago.
