Chapter 588: Die A Devastating Death
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Qinxiang felt embarrassed, but she knew that she could not hide from it.
A few years ago, she thought that everything was over and that no one would die. However, she did not expect that someone would still have an accident during this year’s imperial examination.
Recently, she was always trembling with fear. She was truly afraid.
“My relationship with my husband was bad. Back then, after I gave birth to a child with Pang Xiyuan, I became even more… unable to get along with my husband…
“That year, before the imperial examination, I saw Nie Fei in a restaurant, so I sent him a note and met him outside the city. It was a beautiful night, but not long after that, he died out there… I really don’t know what happened. I heard that he hanged himself. I thought that maybe he was wronged, so I couldn’t get over it…”
After all, he was the man she liked, so she was in a bad mood at the time.
She initially wanted to send some silver to Nie Fei’s family, but the case had caused a stir. She was afraid that her actions would attract attention, so she pretended not to know anything.
“I admire scholars. They’re good-looking and talented, so I paid more attention to them. Three years later, during the imperial examination, I found a scholar like before… I spent a night with him, and after that, he also died there…”
Since then, she did not dare to do that anymore.
Until some time ago, she was attracted to someone who looked very much like Pang Xiyuan.
She thought that everything had ended long ago, but she did not expect the past to repeat itself.
In fact, she had never stopped seeing men in the past few years. There were good-looking escorts in the village. Although they were good-looking, they did not have much talent, so she did not go there often.
She would only go out to relax occasionally because she was really bored at home.
Those three scholars were the best.
After such a thing happened, Bai Qinxiang was not the most suspected, but her husband.
“Madam Bai, where’s your husband?” Zhao Xuanjing asked.
“He died of illness two years ago.” Madam Bai’s expression was indifferent. She did not show any sadness when she mentioned this matter.
This person was flirtatious, but she was heartless.
In fact, she and Pang Xiyuan were truly a match made in heaven.
Since this son-in-law of the Bai family was dead, it was impossible for him to be responsible for this year’s murder case.
So who could it be?
Xie Qiao frowned and thought seriously. She looked outside and saw a 18 or 19-year-old man walking past quickly.
“Where’s your son?” Xie Qiao asked.
Bai Qinxiang frowned. “What do you mean? Why are you looking for my son?”
“Bring Young Master Bai here.” Zhao Xuanjing was very straightforward.
This person had to be brought in front of him for questioning so that he would know if Bai Qinxiang committed the crime.
It was best to know where Bai Qinxiang was at the time of the crime and whether there were witnesses.
Xie Pinggang did that immediately. Not long after, the man who had just revealed himself was brought over.
Bai Qinxiang’s son did not look like her, and he was not very good-looking.
His eyes were puffy, his face was dull, and he looked like he would not have any child. This person… had kidney qi deficiency.
Xie Qiao coughed dryly, and then looked at him a few more times.
She frowned.
This person was dark and gloomy. His abdomen was thin and narrow, and he was lonely and cold. His neck was thin and short. His philtrum was narrow in the middle and wide in the top. His nose was small and his spirit was weak. His complexion was green and dark, he looked like he would die a devastating death.
This person’s appearance was ordinary, and his aura was even worse. He was almost comparable to a dead person.
Moreover, he had a fierce look.
Xie Qiao’s expression was serious. She thought for a moment and said, “Young Master Bai, did you kill Zhu Boyang?”
As soon as she said that, everyone, including Zhao Xuanjing, looked at her in surprise.. They did not expect her to suddenly come to this conclusion.
