Chapter 107 Framed
"Which maid?"
Nanny Chen quickly pointed at a little maid hiding behind her.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the little maid quickly knelt on the ground.
"Who instructed you to do this?" When Xue Wanxian saw this maid, he already had a bad feeling.
However, he still held some hope in his heart, hoping that the truth of the matter was not what he imagined, that it was just a misunderstanding, and that Liu Yiyi was not that kind of person.
The little maid said nothing, but just knelt there with her head lowered.
"Since you won't say anything, Xue Qing, sell her off to the lowest place and never let her out again in this lifetime."
Xue Wanxian has suffered enough injustice at the hands of An Qingqian during this period. Even though the maids in Xiheyuan do not respect him, he can still let them go for An Qingqian's sake.
However, even the people in his own yard dared to look down on him, fooling and deceiving him at will. Did they really think he was a paper tiger?
"My lord, please spare my life. I will tell you. I will tell you right away." Upon hearing Xue Wanxian's punishment, the little maid looked up in horror.
She had thought that as long as she didn't say anything and was beaten, the fifty taels of silver that Miss Liu gave her would all be hers. In that case, even if she was seriously injured, she could just recover slowly. The fifty taels of silver would be enough for their family to live a good life for the rest of their lives.
However, she did not expect that Xue Wanxian would treat her like this.
If I were really sold to that kind of place, my life would be ruined, so what would I need the money for?
"My Lord, it's Miss Liu. Last night, Miss Liu called me into her room and gave me fifty taels of silver, saying that I only had to follow her instructions today and go to Changshou Hall to tell the old lady that she had knocked her down and caused Miss Liu to have a stomachache."
When the people in the yard heard this, they were all shocked.
"The fifty taels of silver are hidden in my room, sewn inside my pillow."
Soon someone searched the maid's room and found the fifty taels of silver.
Xue Wanxian stared at the silver and trembled with anger.
He could never have imagined that the person he loved so much would do such a thing.
Liu Yiyi is obviously a very simple girl. How could she have such dark and vicious thoughts?
She knew clearly that Zhang and An Qingqian did not get along with each other, but she was just trying to save face.
She clearly knew that she had to please An Qingqian and maintain a good relationship with her during this period, but she still did it anyway.
Even though she knew that framing An Qingqian in this way would most likely hurt the baby in her belly, she still did it.
Why on earth? Why did she do this?
Zhang and Nanny Chen also realized that they were being used as a gun by Liu Yiyi today.
Liu Yiyi knew that they were not on good terms with An Qingqian, so she wanted to use their help to punish An Qingqian.
"Now that this matter has been clarified, I will go back first. It's quite cold outside. My Lord, you should pay more attention to your bedmate and your child."
An Qingqian raised her eyebrows, smiled, then turned and left.
In the yard, Xue Wanxian and Zhang both looked very unhappy.
"Xue Qing, this maid has such a vicious mind, sell her out and don't let me see her again."
"My Lord, please don't. I know I was wrong. I was just bewildered for a moment. Please let me go, my Lord."
The maid begged for mercy again and again, but her mouth was quickly blocked by Xue Qing, who pulled her down.
Everyone in the yard lowered their heads, feeling uneasy, fearing that Xue Wanxian would vent his anger on them in a fit of rage.
"If anyone dares to tell anyone about what happened today, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship." Xue Wanxian glanced at the people in the yard, his voice a little hoarse and chilling.
"The slaves dare not."
"The servant dare not."
After hearing the servant's assurance, Xue Wanxian turned to look at Zhang and Nanny Chen.
"Come here, the weather is cold, send the old lady and Nanny Chen back."
Not to mention the frame-up that Liu Yiyi had committed today, as soon as Zhang entered the yard, she wanted to slap An Qingqian in the face without any reason.
This really made Xue Wanxian feel unbelievable. When did his mother become so unreasonable?
He has been making concessions these past two days, sending gifts to An Qingqian almost every day to ease their relationship, hoping that after An Zhenyuan returns to Beijing, he will not blame him too much and will say a few good words for him in front of the emperor.
However, after what happened today, regardless of whether An Qingqian would speak for herself in front of her father, the fact that she did not complain was already considered kindness on her part.
Xue Wanxian really couldn't understand. One was his beloved partner, and the other was his loving mother. Why would they do this and ruin his future?
"Xian'er, mother..." When Zhang saw her son's hateful and disgusted eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little panicked. She had never seen such a look in her son's eyes.
It was as if I was not his mother, but his enemy.
Nanny Chen pulled Zhang's sleeve and said, "My Lord, I will take the old lady back first."
There were still wailing sounds coming from inside the house, and they were not disturbed by what was happening outside.
Another two hours passed before the wailing sound inside stopped and was replaced by the clear sound of a baby crying.
"It's born, it's born, Miss Liu has given birth." The midwife wrapped the baby in a blanket, very happy.
After giving birth, Liu Yiyi fainted due to exhaustion.
Xiao Sang stood aside and saw Liu Yiyi faint. He quickly took out a small pill from his arms and quickly stuffed it into her mouth.
This was something Liu Yiyi had given to Xiao Sang before, telling her that if she fainted after giving birth, she should immediately put this pill into her mouth to ensure that she would recover quickly.
Although Xue Wanxian knew that today's events were planned by Liu Yiyi, he still couldn't bear to leave when he thought that she was giving birth to his child in there.
Hearing the sound of a baby being born, Xue Wanxian walked in quickly.
The midwife immediately handed the child to Xue Wanxian, "My Lord, great joy! Miss Liu has successfully given birth to a baby boy. Congratulations, my Lord."
Xue Wanxian took the child, his hands and feet trembling slightly. Looking at the wrinkled, red baby in the cradle, Xue Wanxian's heart softened.
This is his first child, his and Liu Yiyi's bloodline.
"Reward, reward everyone here today."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
The midwife and others were speaking flattering words loudly.
Xiao Sang came out and saw Xue Wanxian holding the child, so she hurried forward.
"Master Hou."
"How is Yi Yi?" Xue Wanxian held the child and glanced at Xiao Sang.
"The girl was exhausted and fainted. She should wake up after a while." Xiao Sang answered with his head down.
