The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

A new bowl of water was brought up.

Fu Rongxin picked up the silver needle. As she felt the tingling pain at her fingertips, she couldn't suppress her excitement.

Finally... two lifetimes.

In her previous life, it took only a few days for her to go from being recognized as a relative to becoming the queen, and then being beheaded. In her two lifetimes, she had never had a good life as a concubine's daughter of a merchant family.

Now, everything that belongs to her is finally coming back!

See who dares to bully her, who dares to look down on her!

Especially Xue Zhiyi, who had been stealing her identity for so long, and now he was about to be trampled into the mud.

It would be better for her to be sent to the Fu family. Fu Jiahui and Fu Jiamin, those two jealous people, will torture her a hundred times or a thousand times in the future as much as they flattered Xue Zhiyi in the past.

It's such a relief to let Xue Zhiyi experience the suffering she had endured!

Bada...

That drop of blood slowly bloomed like a red spider lily on the road to the underworld, reflected in her eyes full of expectation.

When Fu Ling picked up the silver needle, Fu Rongxin's heart beat rapidly, and her eyes were full of eagerness... Just one move, just one drop of blood, and she would be the legitimate daughter of the Xue family...

Suddenly, a warm feeling passed through her face.

Fu Rongxin realized it belatedly and looked to her side.

Gao Qingnian, who had been staring at the bowl of water just now, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The black blood splattered on her face, stunning her for a moment.

"what!"

I don't know which maid or servant screamed, but Gao Qingnian looked incredulous, gurgling in his throat, and fell straight down.

The blood was stinking, and Xue Zhiyi took a few steps back to avoid getting stained by the dirty blood.

Fu Ling subconsciously pulled Fu Rongxin into his arms. Fu Rongxin just stared blankly and said hesitantly, "What happened..."

In fear, the Gao family's servants rushed forward and squatted down to check Gao Qingnian's breathing.

Gao Qingnian's eyes were wide open, and black blood was oozing from his mouth, nose and eye sockets. He looked extremely terrifying.

The servant's hands were shaking. He held his nose for a moment, then gasped and fell to the ground, "Master, he...he's dead!"

"What!?"

Suddenly, there was chaos in the main hall.

Who would care about the blood test at this moment? No matter how low Gao Qingnian's official position was, he was still a member of the imperial court. How would it end if he died in the Xue family in such an unclear way?

And the cause of death was clearly poisoning!

who did it?

Fu Ling looked at the people around her vigilantly, and suddenly, she looked at Fu Rongxin in her arms.

But Fu Rongxin just shook her head in panic, and whispered: "No...it's not me..."

Judging from her expression, Fu Rongxin certainly didn't look like she knew the truth.

After a moment of trance, Fu Ling took out the momentum of the mistress of the house: "Mother Xing, please call the doctor!"

He then said to the Xue family's servants, "This is a serious matter. No one except Mama Xing can be allowed to leave the Xue Mansion!"

Now that Gao Qingnian has been poisoned to death in the Xue family, she is afraid that the Xue family cannot escape the responsibility. The Gao family has little power, so it would be best if it could be settled privately. In short, before the matter becomes clear, she must first stop the Gao family from reporting to the police.

Now she could only hope that Xue Zhentong would leave the court soon, otherwise she herself might not know how long she could hold on.

At this moment, Xue Tingliu's eyebrows slightly raised, and his eyes glanced at the screen in the main hall. Behind the screen, there was also a pair of eyes staring at this place.

Rong Ziying held onto the screen with her hands, trembling with nervousness. She asked Chuntao, "Have you asked for help?"

Chun Tao said, "Don't worry, Auntie. The Second Young Master has already had someone inform the concierge and have them inform the Gao family groom who is waiting outside first!"

"Okay." Rong Ziying sneered: "If Fu Rongxin is really Fu Ling's daughter, that would be even better! In this case, wouldn't it make Fu Ling suffer more than death!"

At this moment, the Gao family was already going crazy with anxiety. The servant shouted: "What does Madam Xue mean by this? The lady is like this now, we must go back to the mansion to report it. The Xue family is doing this because they are guilty!"

Fu Ling said, "It is still unknown whether Mr. Gao's symptoms are man-made. If it is man-made, anyone here today could be the murderer. If we don't close the door tightly and let the murderer escape, what will happen!"

Amid the chaos, Xue Zhiyi just sat down calmly, like an outsider, and wiped the blood from the wound on his fingertips, as if to erase the last connection with this dirty place.

After all, this was the Xue Mansion, and the Gao family members did not dare to make too much noise. They could only surround Gao Qingnian and beat their chests and stamp their feet while waiting for the doctor.

Fu Rongxin is still a little dazed. Gao Qingnian just died like that?

But she had a hunch that the shadow that this person brought to her would not dissipate so quickly.

She looked at the bowl of water. The drop of blood in it had long since dissipated, leaving only a faint red color in the water.

It was clearly just a little bit away... just a drop of Fu Ling's blood.

Gao Qingnian could have died at any other time, but had to die at that time!

When the doctor was hurriedly called in, he was also shocked. Looking at the cruel death of the man on the ground, he felt the pulse, looked at the pupils, and dipped a silver needle in some dirty blood before he came to the conclusion: "Madam, this man is dead. There is no need to save him. And judging from the death, the cause of death is probably poison."

Immediately, the Gao family servants wailed: "We need to report to the police! We need to report to the police!"

"Someone has poisoned me! Madam, please open the door and let me go and report to the police!"

Fu Ling's face turned pale... Who did it? Who did it?

She said coldly: "Go and ask the master to come back first!"

At this moment, a noise was heard.

The doorman stumbled over and said, "Madam!"

Seeing this, Fu Ling had a bad feeling: "What's wrong?"

The doorman shouted in surprise: "The Gao family and the Dali Temple are here! They are outside the door right now!"

"What?" Fu Ling's legs went limp.

Before she could come up with a response, the runners from the Dali Temple rushed in aggressively.

Along with them came people from the Gao family.

"Second Master!" The Gao family's servant knelt down and cried, "You have to make the decision for us, Master!"

The man called Second Master cried out in shock when he saw Gao Qingnian's body: "Brother! Brother went out to propose marriage today, how could he lose his life like this! Brother!"

The man from the Dali Temple who came to handle the case was tall and strong with a square face. He held his sword and said, "I am Yu Xing, the Dali Temple Secretary. I have received a report from the Gao family saying that Gao Qingnian, the head of the Censorate, died in the Xue Mansion. I ask the Xue family to cooperate with the investigation."

Several yamen runners helped the second master of the Gao family, who was crying loudly but without any action, to the side, and the coroner examined Gao Qingnian's body.

Yu Xing asked the second master of the Gao family: "Gao Qingyu, what is your brother's intention in coming to the Xue family's residence today?"

Gao Qingyu said, "A few months ago, my brother and the young lady of the Fu family in Linzhou hit it off at first sight and fell in love with each other. He intended to take her as a concubine, so he sent a letter to the Fu family. Knowing that Miss Fu was temporarily staying in the Xue Mansion, he brought a betrothal gift today and came to propose marriage. I didn't expect... this to happen!"

After saying that, she burst into tears again.

Yu Xing looked at them and asked, "Is Miss Fu here?"

Fu Rongxin stood up and quickly denied it: "Master Yu, there is no such thing! How could Gao Qingnian and I have ever been in love? Although I am not from a high family, I am also the daughter of a good family. How could I rush to be a concubine for no reason!"

Looking at her, Yu Xing frowned: Gao Qingnian's bad reputation is obvious to all. The girl in front of him is as white as a magnolia, fair and delicate. It is possible that Gao Qingnian is entangled with that girl again.

But Gao Qingyu spat. As Gao Qingnian's younger brother, Gao Qingyu was even more despicable. He was a complete rogue and his words were naturally unpleasant.

"Why aren't you getting up? You've already fallen asleep, why are you pretending to be pure and innocent now?"

"Gao Qingyu!" Upon hearing this, Fu Ling immediately cursed: "How dare you attack someone from the Xue Mansion like this in the territory of the Xue Mansion? Are you worthy of the crime of fabricating rumors!"

Fu Rongxin had never thought that the Gao family were all beasts. She was so angry that she was shaking and her voice was choked with sobs: "I don't want to live anymore if my reputation is slandered like this!"

"Shut up!" Yu Xing stopped the farce by saying, "Gao Qingyu, this matter has nothing to do with this case. I just want to know whether the Xue family knew in advance that Gao Qingnian was coming to propose marriage today?"
