So in front of so unfamiliar people, or those she doesn’t value much—for example, Charles from Jiangnan who is already dead—she deliberately acts aloof, keeping a cool facade, saying as little as possible to avoid exposing herself.
Actually, she’s just a bit naturally naive and unaware.
Dong Huiying furrowed her brows slightly at this mont... beside her, Liu Yan and others exchanged glances, and finally Liu Yan stepped forward: "Miss Miao, I think you might be blaming the wrong person."
"Hmm?"
Miao Qing tilted her head, looking at Liu Yan.
Liu Yan’s lips twitched slightly, "Our Sir is skilled in managing his n, and it’s impossible for us to have done such a thing. Moreover, during the war, to prevent any adverse situations, aside from military provisions, we never touch anything else regardless of our craving, because if those things were poisoned, it would be disastrous."
"So, Sir’s personal soldiers could never eat outside food, let alone kill your chicken and stew it as you said. And the soldiers who joined the campaign didn’t consist only of us; most operations were mixed. Although Sir was the Commander of the Army at the ti, the frontier wasn’t entirely impenetrable. There were various forces, including many people and spies inserted by the Imperial Court."
"Compared to us, those spies with ulterior motives acted more recklessly."
Miao Qing frowned, "Are you saying I’m seeking revenge for Da Hua against the wrong target?"
Liu Yan smiled and said, "Precisely?"
"Why should I believe you? You need to provide evidence to prove your claims and convince ."
Liu Yan said, "There’s sothing quite coincidental. When Miss Miao ca to Dongdi, she was followed by a troop. Recently, for certain reasons, I captured these people and brought them up the mountain. Although many were secretly executed, we kept one alive. I think this person might be a breakthrough."
After speaking, Liu Yan instructed the people beside him, "Go and bring Wang Su over."
Before long, two female soldiers escorted a disheveled madwoman to the place.
This madwoman was Wang Su. Compared to a few days ago, Wang Su had lost a lot of weight, mainly from hunger. She beca a prisoner, locked away with no one caring if she lived or died. Occasionally, she’d be given so food, but mostly left to starve. Moreover, she hadn’t bathed for days, and now in the heat of sumr, she emitted a foul odor mixed with sweat.
Miao Qing pinched her nose in disgust—it was truly... too slly!
She scrutinized Wang Su from top to bottom for a while. Suppressing the dislike in her heart, she reluctantly said, "Give her to ; I’ll find out whether the facts are as you say."
"As you wish." Liu Yan assud a courteous deanor.
Afterward, the originally cross-legged sitting Miao Qing stood up. She commanded the two female soldiers to escort Wang Su as they walked into the small forest together.
About an hour later.
Miao Qing erged from the forest with an extrely grim face. She was stained with so blood, indicating that the events in the forest were sowhat grueso.
The two female soldiers who had been responsible for escorting Wang Su whispered a few words in Liu Yan’s ear.
Wang Su was dead.
She was killed by Miao Qing, and the death was tragic.
Liu Yan was not surprised by this.
Miao Qing snorted and looked at Dong Huiying: "The mountains are high, the waters long, we et by chance, so I’ll take my leave now. Oh, by the way..."
Miao Qing glanced at the dishes on the table that hadn’t been finished, "They sll quite good; are you still going to eat them? If not, let pack them up and take them away!"
"Uh..."
