Chapter 111 Feng 9 was captured
Ximen Caidie was so frightened that she quickly knelt down: "Caidie dare not, Caidie just wants to let Second Brother know that I am safe."
Leng Yunlang's face was cold, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his voice became colder and harsher: "This prince thinks you are very daring, you think my Fifth Prince's Mansion is a vegetable market, you can come in and leave as you like.
Come, give Concubine Die twenty heavy blows with the stick to teach her a lesson. If she does it again, throw her directly into the water dungeon and never let her out."
As soon as he finished speaking, two secret guards came in and carried Ximen Caidie out.
They made her lie on a bench, and the two began to torture her in turns...
As the sticks came down, cold sweat broke out on Ximen Caidie's back and forehead. Her brows were furrowed, and she clenched her teeth without making a sound.
She knew that shouting out would not relieve the pain at all, and would only make her be ridiculed by the Fifth Prince and the women in the backyard, and she would have no place to stand in the future.
Ximen Caidie's eyes were blurred, as if she had fallen into endless darkness.
After twenty blows, she fainted.
A secret guard clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the concubine has fainted."
The fifth prince saw that Ximen Caidie's body below the waist was stained with blood.
He walked over and carried her back into the house.
"Are you two maids dead? One of you should go get medicine from the housekeeper."
"Your Highness, what should we do if the master is still unconscious?" asked a maid.
"Don't worry, he will wake up in time." The fifth prince said in a cold voice.
A maid came forward and began to clean Ximen Caidie's wound...
In the Fifth Prince's Mansion, although Ximen Caidie was known as a concubine, she still lived in that dilapidated courtyard.
No one knew what magic power she had, but the Fifth Prince was completely bewitched by her. He kept doting on her, and every time he doted on her, he would beat her.
As a result, Ximen Caidie was whipped every few days, and her old wounds did not heal but she got new ones.
All the honor and favor was given to her. The women in the backyard were simply overjoyed, while Ximen Caidie lived in dire straits every day...

Shen Guogong Mansion
Shen Qingman, the granddaughter of Duke Shen, married to Longxi. After a few years, she had established herself in the Longxi Palace and returned to Beijing to visit her relatives.
The Duke and the Old Lady were overjoyed. Shen Qingman knelt before them and said, "Grandpa and Grandma, I'm honored to meet you. I haven't been able to show my filial piety to you in person these past few years. I hope you will forgive me."
The Duke's wife smiled and said, "You are not guilty. Qingman, it's been a few years since we last met. You must be missing your grandmother terribly. Liuzhi, quickly help the young lady up."
Shen Qingman stood up and looked around: "Grandma, where is my mother?"
"Sister!" At this time, Shen Mingxuan ran in from outside.
Shen Qingman looked at her brother who ran in, a smile in her eyes: "Xuan'er, you have grown so tall."
She looked out the door again and asked, "Where's my mother? Why can't I see her?"
The Duke's wife sighed and said, "Your mother did something wrong and was punished to go to the manor."
Shen Qingman had tears in her eyes: "Grandma, my granddaughter misses her mother. This punishment has been imposed. Can you please let her come back?"
Duke Shen thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let her come back."
Shen Qingman knelt down: "Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma, for your help!"
The Duke's wife ordered, "Get up quickly. Someone, take the young lady downstairs to rest."
Shen Qingman bowed and said, "Granddaughter, take your leave!"
Shen Qingman returned to the courtyard where she had been married and asked, "Liuzhi, tell me why mother was punished to go to the manor."
Liuzhi then explained the whole story one by one.
"Miss, the Duke and the old lady really liked the divine fortune teller Xiao Qi and wanted to adopt her as their granddaughter at the birthday party, but the Princess of Zhennan ruined it."
Shen Qingman's eyes were filled with anger: "Grandpa and grandma are also old and confused. Xiaoqi is just a fortune teller, how can they recognize her as their own granddaughter.
My mother's suffering will not be in vain, and this vengeance will be avenged."
"Miss, you just came back, you should take a rest first and discuss countermeasures after the eldest lady comes back." Liu Ye advised.
Shen Qingman nodded slightly, then continued, "I came from Longxi this time with only thirty or so secret guards for protection. I don't believe that thirty people can't deal with Xiao Qi."
Liu Zhi advised, "Miss, that Xiao Qi is quite powerful and knows how to use poison, so it's better to be careful.
I overheard the old lady say that the Princess of Zhennan sent over 20 people to assassinate her, but all the assassins died and were thrown back to the Zhennan Palace. The Princess was so frightened that she fell ill.
"Aunt is so useless!"
"Miss, I will ask the kitchen to make some of your favorite cakes. You must be tired from the journey, so please rest first."
The two maids walked out, and Shen Qingman was thinking about how to deal with Xiaoqi.

Dragon and Tiger Hall
Lei Xiaotian, the head of the Dragon and Tiger Hall, was in his thirties, with a broad build and a full beard. He said in a rough voice, "Second Brother, you said that a few days ago you accepted 10,000 taels of silver from the Zhennan Palace and asked us to kill the divine fortune teller Xiaoqi?"
Xu Lao Er blinked his triangular eyes and replied, "Yes, I want to kill one person for 10,000 taels. It's too easy to make money, so I agreed."
Lei Xiaotian seemed to be lost in thought. After a moment, he spoke: "I've heard that the divine fortune teller Xiaoqi is well versed in metaphysics. We must come up with a foolproof plan and achieve victory with one move."
Xu Lao Er spoke directly: "Brother, why don't we capture her personal maid first, lure the enemy into the back mountain, and make sure she doesn't come back."
"That's it, Second Brother. Go find the Poison Master and get some Ecstasy Powder. Then send someone to arrest the maid."
Xu Lao Er clasped his fists and said, "I will definitely take care of this matter."
A few days later, Fengjiu came out of the mansion with a bag of prepared pills in her hand, and was about to deliver the medicine to Baicaotang.
When she reached the alley, before she could turn the corner, some powder suddenly flew towards her. She held her breath, but it was too late. She had inhaled some drugs.
She drew the soft sword from her waist and stabbed a killer with force.
The killer dodged the sword with a quick move.
Fengjiu's vision gradually blurred, and then the soft sword in her hand fell, and she fell to the ground.
"Take her away!" someone shouted, and two people came up and threw Fengjiu onto the carriage, heading straight out of the city.
Ye Qingyan waited in Baicaotang for a long time, but Fengjiu didn't show up. She came to the shopkeeper and asked, "Is Fengjiu here?"
"No."
After a while, Nanny Qin came trotting to Baicaotang, holding a piece of paper with a hole in it.
"Master, someone shot a letter at the door of the main courtyard. Something has happened to Fengjiu."
Ye Qingyan took the paper and looked at it, her expression suddenly changed.
There was murderous intent in her eyes, "How dare you capture my people? Aren't you afraid that I will kill them?
Nanny Qin, please go back home first. I will handle this matter."
Ye Qingyan teleported to Longhu Mountain.
She came to the mountain gate and shouted, "Tell your leader to hand over my men, or I will blow up the Dragon and Tiger Hall."
A gatekeeper said disdainfully: "Our boss is in the back mountain, and your people are also in the back mountain, go and rescue them."
"Just wait for me. I'll come and blow you up after I save Fengjiu."
Ye Qingyan leaped and disappeared.
