《The Fortune of Rebirth: The Counterattack of the Princess》C23. The Punishment of Qinghe
Advertisement
Proofread by Yin Jing
"Qinghe is at your disposal, sister. All these happened because of my loose discipline. How dare I say anything else?" Yan Shuang expresses her attitude hurriedly.
Hearing Yan Shuang’s words, Qinghe suddenly turned as pale as ashes. She loses her vitality and lies there motionlessly as if a dead person.
Yan Ling looks at her quietly, and a different feeling suddenly flashes in her heart--- another person is abandoned because of her uselessness.
"Ok. Nan Yan!" Yan Ling suppresses her anger and shouts.
"My Lady." Nan Yan replies with a bow.
"Take Qinghe to the backyard. Things that happen in this yard need to be disposed of in this yard. They cannot become others’ laughing stock." Yan Ling says, looking around.
"Yes, My Lady." Nan Yan replies without expression.
People who have been glanced by Yan Ling feel very uneasy. They could not help but look down and dare not look her in the eye.
"What are you doing here instead of working? The money that the Prime Minister's House gives you is to let you watch here!" Mrs. Yan also feels so embarrassed that she turns to scold the servants around angrily.
Originally, Yan Shuang came to her to help teach Yan Ling a lesson. But now, Yan Ling is undamaged, and she finds the "assailant ". They came here in a threatening manner, but now they are standing here like a joke.
Seeing this, everyone knows that Mrs. Yan is furious. Hurriedly, they lower their heads, rushing to the gate of the yard silently, as if they would be caught by Mrs. Yan if they slow down.
Seeing them leave, Mrs. Yan still feels embarrassed and unhappy. Taking a look at Yan Shuang, she doesn’t know what to say. And she takes a few steps forward, takes her daughter's hand and walks out of the yard together.

Seeing the crowded yard comes back to its normal quietness, Yan Ling feels relieved. Such a troublesome matter has finally been settled now.
Yan Ling thinks that after this, those people should stop making troubles for a while, at least temporarily. In the future, even if someone doesn’t like her and wants to hurt her, they have to think about today's affairs and think well before they leap.
Thinking of this, Yan Ling can’t help smiling. In the final analysis, this is the credit of Nan Yan.
Nan Yan won't give her a dog for no reason. He must have heard about the rumors in the House and wants to catch the assailant by Yanyan and solve her difficulties.
Yan Ling squints, and suddenly feels a good mood. Sure enough, she chose the right person at the beginning. Gradually, Nan Yan will grow into her help. The key point is that people who are trained by herself are more trustworthy.
Next, what Yan Ling needs to do is to deal with Qinghe.
"Do you really intend to let Qinghe go, My Lady?" In the evening, Liyi is still confused.
"Or what? Do you think I will pretend to let her go and send someone to kill her on the way?" Yan Ling looks at Liyi jokingly. How could she not know what this girl is thinking?
"Oh, of course not..." Yan Ling speaks out what Liyi has in her mind, making Liyi a little embarrassed.
"Well, I know what you are thinking about." Yan Ling looks at Liyi with a smile, which makes her blush.
"In fact, I just didn't understand. Qinghe framed you like that. How can you let her go so easily?" Liyi takes a deep breath and asks earnestly.
Liyi knows that Yan Ling is good-natured, but she is also afraid that Yan Ling is too soft-hearted to intimidate those who want to hurt her.

Today, she let Qinghe go so easily. What about the next day? Are there more people who want to take advantage of her?
Yan Ling sighs. Of course, she knows what Liyi is thinking about. But she has also considered all these worries.
In fact, the reason why Yan Ling didn't do anything more to Qinghe is that Qinghe is very similar to her in the previous life. Also, after today’s events, Qinghe must be able to understand some people and probably won't do evil in the future.
In the past few days, Yan Ling was going to find an opportunity to drive Qinghe out of the House. Now that she has the opportunity, and why would she give her more serious punishment? However, she cannot say that to Liyi.
"First, I'm sure you can see that Qinghe is not the person behind this matter. So there is no need to punish her. Second..." Yan Ling sighs again.
"She's pretty miserable now, and I think she's learned a lesson."
Liyi nods slightly, then she becomes a little hesitant again: "it's true, but if others know this, eventually..."
Yan Ling smiles, "we are the only ones who know that Qinghe leaves. If anyone else wants to know, then we can tell him a good story about Qinghe’s leaving. "
After saying this, Yan Ling waves to Liyi and asks her to come close.
The next day, there are two messages spread among the servants of the Prime Minister's House.
Firstly, Miss Ling didn’t use poison but was framed. And the one who framed Miss Ling was Qinghe, Miss Shuang's maid.
As for the second message, it's actually related to Miss Ling who was almost forgotten by everyone.
It is said that Mrs. Yan and Miss Shuang let Miss Ling decide the punishment for Qinghe. And Miss Ling is really hard-hearted by letting her giant black dog bite Qinghe on the leg.
It's said that when Qinghe was sent away, her legs were terribly injured, and her blood had dyed her skirt red.
Not long after, it turned out that Qinghe's legs had been bitten off by the dog raised by Miss Ling when she was driven away.
No matter what the fact is, the servants in the House finally understand that Miss Ling is not as cowardly as they heard.
If someone uses words like “weakness, or cowardice” to describe Miss Ling, he must be grimly scolded by others.
Have you ever seen a weak, cowardly person who would let her dog bite another person's leg?
However, in any case, it is not uncommon for the aristocrats to punish someone who did such a thing as Qinghe to death. Although what Miss Ling did is cruel, she didn’t let Qinghe die, which can also be called a merciful action.
Of course, it’s inevitable that someone picks holes: "Qinghe is like that now. What's the difference between that situation and death? At least death makes her less painful."
However, no matter how these people evaluate Yan Ling, Yan Ling herself doesn't care. Now, Yan Ling is preoccupied with something else.
Princess Zhaoyan will hold a banquet in the middle of June, and she has invited all the young ladies and masters in the capital, and Yan Ling, of course, is on her guest list.
