Chapter 345 The Second Young Master, Ning Huaijing
A lot of people crowded in front of the Lord Protector's Manor. Some of them shook their heads while watching what was happening. There had been no end to the scandal in the family since the Second Madam of the manor died. The Lord Protector's Manor was no longer an influential family with a good reputation.
Today, it even reached a small climax.
A woman dressed in plain clothes knelt at the gate of the manor. She did not say a word, but only shed tears silently. She had been kneeling here for two hours, but no one had come out to meet her.
What was going on? More and more people gathered watching and soon, it was too crowded that the whole street was blocked.
"Last time, it was a concubine who knelt here. Who is the woman this time? She seems not young, not younger than that concubine at least. What's going on? Is it because of the competition between wives and concubines again? It's said that Lord Protector is a powerful general,

People who held the dinner party mainly wanted Ning Huaijing to get familiar with his brother and sisters. Therefore, Ning Xueyan, Ning Huaiyuan, and their sisters did not leave after dinner. The rarest thing was that Madam Ling did not leave either. Maybe because she had figured it out just now, she did not seem to be angry when she looked at Ning Huaijing.If people took a closer look, they would find there was a hint of grievance in her eyes!"How could Madam Ling feel wronged?" Ning Xueyan sneered inwardly, wondering what she was going to do.Ning Zu'an and his concubines were all gone, so everyone was much more relaxed. They each found a chair and sat down with Ning Xueyan on the right side of Ning Huaijing, who sat below Ning Huaiyuan, and Ning Yuling, Ning Qingshan as well as Ning Lingyun on their opposite side."If you don't feel well, return to your courtyard to rest early!" Madam Dowager said to Madam Ling coolly.

At this time, Ning Huaijing had cleared all his heart knots and thoughts. So, he could not face Ning Huaiyuan with a stiff expression anymore. He said naturally, "I did not say anything. I want to get to know Fifth Sister.""Don't you already know each other?" Ning Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows."Father pointed her out to me, but I did not talk to Fifth Sister," Ning Huajing said with a smile. He looked at Ning Huaiyuan with a trace of contemplation in his eyes. If he remembered correctly, the Fifth Sister in front of him was not Ning Huaiyuan's biological sister.Ning Huaiyuan's attitude was strange! There was something indescribably strange, but for a moment, Ning Huaijing could not think of anything strange about it. Ning Huaiyuan was only Fifth Sister's half-brother, but he seemed to pay more attention to her.They left after talking with Madam Dowager for a while. When they walked to the intersection, Ning Huajing walked with N

Madam Ling invited a master to come to the manor a few days later.Madam Ling accompanied the master to perform a religious rite in the garden. Madam Dowager sat by the side with all her family members.Except for Ning Zu'an, almost all the masters of the manor were there. Even Ning Lingyun, who was in the Buddha Hall, came to get rid of the bad luck.Ning Xueyan did not come early. Bright Frost Garden was relatively remote, so it was reasonable for her to come late. When she came to the garden and walked toward Madam Dowager, she stopped when she saw the Taoist priest. There was a trace of darkness in her eyes, but she immediately stood behind Madam Dowager.Only Madam Dowager was sitting there, and the others were standing behind her. Ning Xueyan came a little late, so she had to stand behind her."Fifth Young Lady, come here. You can have a better view from here." Junior Concubine Xu, who stood beside Madam Dowager,

"What do you mean, Immortality Master? Is there anything wrong with the Fifth Young Lady? Please tell me exactly." Madam Dowager asked."It's amazing when the two ladies' fate are combined together! That lady had the hope to become a princess, but she is having rotten luck, and her fortune is on the decline. Now, this lady's fortune is rising, while that lady is having rotten luck. It seems that she is taking advantage of that lady's power."The Taoist priest looked at Ning Xueyan as he said this."Master Immortal, do you mean that I am having good luck when Second Sister is having bad luck? So I swept away my bad luck by tapping on her good fortune?" Ning Xueyan smiled slightly and looked at the Taoist priest. She asked this in a meaningful way, with a hint of coldness in her glistening eyes."Yes, you're smart." The Taoist priest did not expect that Ning Xueyan would suddenly speak up, and he was not prepared. He smiled immediate

"Why are you shouting? What's going on?" Ning Zu'an snapped."Marquis, there's something strange going on at Junior Concubine Xu's yard. There are many ants crawling around the corners. A whole colony of dark colored ants. Marquis, please go and have a look!"An ant was not terrible. The horrible thing was that there was a big colony of ants. At the thought of so many ants gathering at one place, the older female servant felt a sudden shiver and almost bit her tongue.How could there be so many ants? And they were all swarming around at the corners of the courtyard. It was frightening to look at them. Such a strange thing, coupled with the Taoist priest's words set off a heated discussion among Junior Concubine Xu's servants.Seeing the older female servant trembling with fear, Ning Zu'an shook his sleeves. Disregarding the flower seeds in Ning Xueyan's place, he went over to Junior Concubine Xu with his servants. No one noticed th
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 351 The Junior Concubine Xu's Death
Tears fell from Junior Concubine Xu's face. The timid beauty was crying so bitterly that Ning Zu'an should take pity on his new beloved woman. But now he only felt hatred and anger. He went forward, grabbed her by the neck, and pulled her to her feet."Tell me, why did you do that?"Recently, so many bad things had happened in the Lord Protector's Manor. Even Madam Ling, who had always been gentle, was not what she used to be. Therefore, Ning Zu'an was perturbed. Xu Yulian was able to serve the master in bed, due to her good fortune. As an ignorant concubine, she always tried to please him, so Ning Zu'an felt comfortable.He had always given in to Junior Concubine Xu's requests.He did not expect that she would use this sort of witchcraft to kill the whole family. Besides Madam Dowager's, Madam Ling's, and Ning Yuling's, his birthdate was also written on the dolls. She wanted to ruin the foundation of the Lord Protector's Manor. Ho

What happened to Junior Concubine Xu was finally suppressed in the manor. All the people in the manor received the order, so everything remained the same as before when the gate of the manor opened the next day. But nobody would mention the tactful and popular Junior Concubine Xu again, as if she had never been in the manor.Since Ning Zu'an did not go home that day and Ning Huaiyuan was lay in bed to recuperate, the manor was unusually quiet.These were the internal affairs of the Lord Protector's Manor, and the influence had been minimized, so no outsider knew that a concubine of Lord Protector ended up dead for her use of the witchcraft in the manor.What caused a sensation was the news that six candidates among those Young Ladies who attended the Beauty Contest held by the imperial palace won the contest. However, to everyone's surprise, instead of being sent to the manor of the two princes and Prince Yi as the rumors said, all of them were
