The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

Qingyin and Qingling trained for ten years, waiting wholeheartedly for the prince to come back so that they could serve him, but as soon as Prince Jin returned, they met each other and were then packed up and sent to the Lu Mansion.

It is impossible to say that they did not feel lost at all.

But they were taught by Nanny Qing that they had to do their job well when they arrived, so the two maids did not intend to be sneaky when it came to taking care of Lu Zhaoling.

Qing Ling had already gone to prepare hot water for Lu Zhaoling to bathe.

Qingyin brought over some nourishing soup and fed Lu Zhaoling the soup carefully.

She had also been wondering whether Lu Zhaoling would be easy to get along with and whether she would cause trouble for the two servants, but she never expected that Lu Zhaoling would suddenly ask her such a question.

Have you killed someone recently?

"Don't be nervous." Lu Zhaoling said.

Qingyin put the soup away and stood in front of the bed with her hands down, "Miss Lu, do you want to punish Qingyin?"

Is this admitting it?

Lu Zhaoling raised her eyebrows. It seemed that the maid sent by Prince Jin's Mansion was a little proud.

Disdain to lie.

Or do you think it doesn't matter if you admit it in front of her?

"The Prince of Jin's Mansion should not know that you killed someone, right?" Lu Zhaoling asked again.

Qing Yin looked at her in shock again. "How did you know?"

That’s right, Nanny Qing didn’t know about this matter, and no one in the palace knew about it. Only Qing Ling knew about it.

She had been struggling with whether or not to tell Nanny Qing during this period, and she was afraid that Nanny Qing would not allow her to serve the prince after she found out.

"I can see that." Lu Zhaoling said.

How can you tell this?

I heard that Lu Zhaoling just returned to the capital from the countryside——

Qingyin couldn't see Lu Zhaoling at all.

"I didn't want to get involved in your business, but your hands were not washed clean and it affects me." Lu Zhaoling looked at her right hand.

Tsk. She was too hungry just now, so she finished her tonic soup before speaking.

But if Qingyin kept using this hand to serve her food and drinks, and maybe even comb her hair and fold her underwear, she wouldn't be able to bear it.

After hearing her words, Qingyin raised his hand. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything wrong.

She and Qing Ling were chosen and well-educated by Nanny Qing, who thought that they would become the prince's concubines when they grew up, so they were smooth and beautiful without any flaws.

Her hands were also slender, white as onions, and clean. How could they be said to be unwashed?

Qingyin looked at Lu Zhaoling in confusion.

Could it be that Miss Lu is suffering from hysteria?

"The person you killed was an extremely evil person. When you killed him, he was doing something bad, right?" Lu Zhaoling said again.

Qing Yin's eyes widened in shock. How could he know this?

That night, when she was coming back from an errand, she passed by a grove of trees and saw a man carrying a little girl stealthily going in.

Qingyin hesitated for a moment and followed.

The man threw the little girl to the ground, and Qingyin saw that the little girl looked only eleven or twelve years old.

A rag was stuffed in her mouth. After the man pulled the cloth out, the little girl coughed for a while and then started crying.

"Brother, please let me go. I will listen to you in the future. I will use all the copper coins my father gave me to buy you wine..."

"Who cares about your few coins? I'm over 20 and still can't find a wife. Every day I have to listen to my parents next door making trouble. Those two shameless old people are making me angry!"

"Brother, wow!" The little girl cried miserably, but she could also see that something was wrong with her brother. He was actually unbuttoning his belt!

She cried and moved backwards, wanting to run but having no strength, and her look was filled with panic and fear.

"You've been ill for half a month, and you've used up all the money in the family on medicine. I have no money left to go to Yihong Courtyard to find a girl! I'll use you to relieve my sexual desire from now on, so that I can keep all the wealth within my family..."

The man tore off his clothes, reached out and grabbed the girl's ankles, and pulled her towards him.

The little girl screamed.

Qingyin felt numb all over!

She had never thought that there were such disgusting people in the world. They were brother and sister! The brother actually wanted to defile his own sister!

And this little girl is only eleven or twelve years old!

Qingyin's eyes were red and her anger almost burned her sanity. Hearing the little girl's terrified and desperate screams and cries, she rushed over without thinking and kicked the man away with one kick.

As it turned out, there happened to be a small sapling over there that had been broken off somehow, and the broken end was long and sharp. The man fell on it when he fell over, and was pierced right through the heart.

Someone outside the grove was calling He Ya and was approaching. Qing Yin calmed down instantly and hid herself first.

Then she saw a woman running in. When she saw the little girl, she was stunned for a moment, then she hugged her and burst into tears.

That should be the little girl's mother.

Qingyin saw that the woman should be good to the little girl, so she didn't show up. The woman's eyesight was not good, and it was dark at that time, so she didn't even see the man not far away. She saw her daughter, who seemed to have lost her soul, and ran away with her on her back.

After Qingyin kicked the man away, she was only concerned about looking at the little girl. After the mother and daughter left, she went to look at the man and was shocked to see that he was entangled in a broken tree, dead.

She now remembered that she had used her right hand to pull the man out of the broken tree, and her hands were stained with his blood.

But she clearly washed it clean.

After washing it once outside, she washed it several more times with fragrant herbs after returning to the palace, making it thoroughly clean.

And it’s been so many days.

Qingyin looked at Lu Zhaoling in shock.

Although Lu Zhaoling was right, she still didn't believe that her hands were dirty.

"Ms. Lu, my hands are clean."

Lu Zhaoling looked at her hands and pursed her lips. "Really? Have you felt that your hands always have a smell these days? And do they attract bugs?"

As soon as these words came out, Qingyin's face changed.

She washed her hands clean, but every morning when she put on facial make-up, she always smelled a faint fishy odor.

Also, there were two times when her fingers suddenly felt itchy when she was sleeping at night. She got up and lit a candle to check, and she found small insects crawling on her hands!

She slept with Qingling. That night, the two of them were busy changing the quilts and cleaning the house, but they didn't find any other insects.

Qingyin cried out, "Is this the retribution for killing someone?"

"No." Lu Zhaoling shook his head. "That man deserved to be killed, but he was an extremely evil person. He was doing something bad when you interrupted him. His hatred burst out, and you were stained with his blood at that time, so your fingers were entangled with a few strands of filth."

Qingyin looked at her hands again.

"But I can't see anything."

"You want to see?" Lu Zhaoling tilted his head and thought for a moment, "I'm too weak now to open your eyes. But you have to wash your hands, otherwise go back to Prince Jin's Mansion."

She didn't dislike Qingyin, but she disliked the filth on her hands.

"Then I'll wash it a few more times." Qingyin pursed her lips, turned around and was about to walk out.
