Chapter 189 I Have a Crush on Someone

Ling Chu saw that no one in the entire Ling Mansion agreed to her breaking off the engagement, and she didn't want to waste any more words, so she stood up and left the main hall.

These people wanted to use her marriage to gain benefits, so they had to see if she agreed.

Since the Ling Mansion did not agree to break off the engagement, they would start with the Zhaoguo Mansion.

But she was not familiar with the Zhaoguo Mansion, so if she wanted to break off the engagement, she had to make some plans.

The next day, after breakfast, Ling Chu did not go to the stall to tell fortunes.

First, after washing her hands, she took out three sticks of incense, lit them, and inserted them into the incense burner.

Then she took out a reincarnation lamp from the bamboo basket where the instruments were placed.

Lighted it with a fire stick and hung it up.

After sitting on the futon, she closed her eyes and recited the scriptures.

Not long after, the small bell on the reincarnation lamp made a crisp sound.

Then a gust of cold wind suddenly rose.

Accompanied by a sinister female voice, "I wonder who it is, it turns out you are calling me!"

"Why did you come to me for no reason?"

Ling Chu heard the other party's tone of dissatisfaction, but she ignored it.

After opening her eyes, she stood up from the futon, sat at the table, picked up the teacup and sipped slowly.

Just chanting, thirsty.

The female puppet saw that she didn't speak, and said with a dark face, "Are you going to say it or not? If not, I'm leaving."

Ling Chu put down the teacup and said in a light voice, "Since you are here, you should make the best of it. Why are you so anxious?"

"Hmph, you and I are not familiar with each other, and I don't think there is anything to say. Sorry, I'm leaving."

She wanted to leave, and Ling Chu couldn't stop her, so she sat quietly and watched.

Hong Xiu was even more dissatisfied when she saw her attitude was so frivolous.

She snorted and turned around and left.

Just as she was about to pass through the wall to leave, she was bounced back by a strong force before she touched the wall.

Caught off guard, she fell on her buttocks.

She was already grimacing in pain, and then she saw Ling Chu holding his cheek and looking at her with a half-smile.

Hongxiu was even more furious.

She quickly got up from the ground, wrapped in a gloomy wind, and rushed over with a ferocious expression, while scratching the delicate face that made her extremely jealous with her long nails, "You vixen, you are looking for death."

Ling Chu frowned, vixen?

Seeing the other party rushing over, he swung a bodhi whip at him.

Hongxiu howled in pain instantly.

Ling Chu waited until she finished howling, and then said in a calm voice, "Are you still going to fight? If not, then let's talk."

Hongxiu was shocked and angry. What kind of whip was that that was so powerful.

There was no way to leave, and she couldn't beat him. Although Hongxiu was furious, she could only ask with a frustrated look on her face, "What does Miss Ling want to talk about?"

"You are a maid in the Duke of Zhao's mansion, right? How much do you know about the Duke of Zhao's wife and her son? Tell me."

Hongxiu smiled sarcastically, "Why, you asked me to come here just to find out about the Duke's wife and the prince, so that you can please them after you get married?"

"Whether you want to please them or not, you don't need to care, just tell me what you know."

Hongxiu originally wanted to say that she knew nothing, but she was afraid of being beaten again.

She could only talk about some insignificant things.

"If you still want to leave, say something valuable."

"I'm just a second-class maid, and I only know some daily trivial matters. Even if the Duke's wife and the prince have something important, they won't let me know."

Ling Chu knew at a glance that she was not telling the truth.

Even if she was a second-class maid, she had been in the Duke of Zhao's mansion for so many years, she would not only know some daily trivial matters.

Moreover, she did not leave after death, so she must know something that others do not know.

Ling Chu did not ask about the wife of Duke Zhao and the prince, but suddenly said, "You died in vain, right? You have so many wounds on your body, were you beaten to death? Do you need me to help you avenge?"

Hong Xiu was stunned, "Help me avenge, really?"

"Of course it is true, but in exchange, you have to tell me everything you know."

After taking a look at the other party's changing expression, Ling Chu added, "Whether you can avenge your revenge depends on whether what you say is valuable."

"But your Ling Mansion has already been defeated, what other ways do you have to help me avenge?"

"You don't need to worry about this, I naturally have my own way. Let me guess, is your death related to the Nanny Wang next to the wife of Duke Zhao?"

The last time Nanny Wang came to Ling Mansion, Hong Xiu's puppet soul followed her, and Ling Chu saw that she had a grudge against Nanny Wang.

So when Nanny Wang humiliated her, she cast a small spell to let Hong Xiu kick her down.

Sure enough, when Nanny Wang was mentioned, Hongxiu looked resentful, "Yes, my death is indeed related to that old pious woman Nanny Wang."

When Hongxiu was about to continue, she suddenly shut up, looked at Ling Chu, and said, "Nanny Wang is the housekeeper of the wife of Duke Zhao. You will marry the prince in the future. Aren't you afraid of offending Nanny Wang and the wife of the Duke will be dissatisfied?"

Ling Chu saw Hongxiu's intention to spy on her, "Is there something wrong with your ears? The last time Nanny Wang came to Ling Mansion, I had already said that I wanted to cancel the engagement with the prince of Duke Zhao."

When Hongxiu came to Ling Mansion with Nanny Wang last time, she did hear that Miss Ling wanted to cancel the marriage, but she didn't believe it.

"Our prince not only has a good family background, but also has good talent and appearance. There are countless girls who like him. And your Ling Mansion has already failed. Duke Zhao Mansion is the best marriage you can get. Are you willing to cancel the engagement?"

When mentioning the Prince of Zhao, Hongxiu's pale face actually blushed, and Ling Chu raised her eyebrows, "Do you like your Prince?"

Hongxiu didn't expect that she could see it at a glance. Although she was a little shy, she didn't deny it. "Our Prince is handsome, and he has always been extremely gentle and kind to us servants. I am not the only one who likes him. Don't you also like our Prince, so you want to marry him?"

She was also wondering why Hongxiu called her a vixen. It turned out that it was because she liked the Prince of Zhao that she was jealous and hated her.

"Although there are many people who like your Prince, I am not one of them. I am not engaged to him because I like him." Ling Chu was a little disappointed. She originally wanted to ask Hongxiu how she got the engagement, but it seemed that she didn't know.

Hongxiu looked suspicious, "Our Prince is so good, how could you not like him?"

Ling Chu almost couldn't help rolling her eyes. She had never seen the Prince of Zhao, so how could she like him?

It seems that in Hongxiu's eyes, her son is probably the best person in the world. No matter what she says, she probably won't believe that she doesn't like the prince of Zhao.

In order to dispel her suspicion, Ling Chu hesitated for a moment and decided to shamelessly borrow the name of Lord Ning, "I really don't like your son, because I already have someone I like."
