Chapter 69: Zhang Jin's Mother

ing the most sought-after man in the city during its heyday when thousands of young women longed to marry him. 。At this time, Zhou Laosan was eager to lead his daughter Zhou Hong into the private room...The person standing before Chun Tao wasn't someone else, it was Zhang Jin, who should be upside down with Qing Xuan right now.

Chun Tao was so frightened by Zhang Jin's sudden outburst that she could barely speak.

Chun Tao: "You... how could you be here"

Zhang Jin: "What do you think"

Zhang Jin's eyes were cold and murderous, as if he wanted to devour people. Chun Tao trembled all over.

After seeing Zhang Jin's neat clothes and perfectly arranged hair, Chun Tao's maidservant immediately believed she was lying.

Zhang Jin roared, "What are you doing here now"

After Zhang Jin's warning, Chun Tao was worried that the other maids might accidentally reveal their secret. Chun Tao immediately took the lead and said, "I saw a rat near here just now. I couldn't catch it alone, so I called for other maids to help."

Zhang Jin: "Catch mice"

Zhang Jin sneered, pulling Chun Tao's collar up. "Really playing cat and mouse"

The collar was tightened by Zhang Jin, and Chun Tao was almost out of breath.

The other maids were so scared by Zhang Jin's cold and stern aura that they didn't dare to speak.

Chun Tao: "Let go... Let go."

Just as Chun Tao was struggling to breathe and about to faint, Zhang Jin suddenly let go of her collar and threw her to the ground.

Chun Tao let out a muffled grunt, then cried out in pain.

A cold light flashed, and Zhang Jin drew the sword from his waist, holding it against Chun Tao's neck.

Other maids, seeing this scene, were frightened and scattered like birds and beasts. Only Chun Tao remained, sitting on the ground.

Chuntao looked at the blade on her neck and cried for mercy, “I… I’ll do anything, you can’t kill me! If you kill me, Empress Jiang will definitely take revenge…”

Before Chun Tao finished speaking, a flash of cold light appeared.

A foul odor permeated the air.

Qingxuan hid in the shadows and almost couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Chun Tao being so scared that she wet herself.

Seeing Zhang Jin hadn't killed her, Chun Tao, who was terrified out of her wits, crawled away.

Only after Chun Tao had left did Qing Xuan emerge from behind the rockery.

Qingxuan: "This is just an appetizer."

Under the silvery moonlight, Qing Xuan's eyes were icy and sharp, even colder and more intimidating than his previous stern demeanor.

Chapter Jin increasingly felt that Qingxuan was worthy of being the Crown Princess.

It's a pity... Now the prince...

Jian Jin was staring blankly at himself, Qing Xuan urged, "What are you still doing here Hurry up and leave."

Zhang Jin immediately put aside his thoughts, taking Qingxuan to dodge the other guards. Finally, he took Qingxuan out through a side door.

Under the hazy moonlight, Qingxuan, veiled and following Zhang Jin's steps, found their path growing increasingly secluded and desolate.

Feeling the cold air around her, Qingxuan couldn't help but frown: "What exactly is this place"

Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, don't be afraid. This place is just closer to the chaotic burial ground."

Qingxuan was taken aback and opened her mouth in surprise. She hadn't expected Zhang Jin and his mother to live near such an inauspicious place.

"As we walked, Zhang Jin explained, 'Because our family was poor and couldn't afford land, we had no choice but to build the house here.'"

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through, and Qingxuan faintly smelled a stench of death.

Even though she wore a veil to block some of the smell, it still made her very uncomfortable.

By the time I reached Zhang Jin's house, the smell had been somewhat diluted by the fragrance of kumquat blossoms planted in the courtyard.

Although it was late at night, the people in the house were not asleep.

There were violent coughs coming from inside the room.

Chapter Jin: "Mother!"

Zhang Jin heard the coughing sound and pushed open the door. By the moonlight, Qing Xuan saw a thin old woman sitting on the bed, coughing constantly. Although she didn't cough up blood, her coughs were agonizing, as if she would cough up her entire lung in the next second.

When the old woman saw Zhang Jin come back, she gritted her teeth trying to suppress her cough, but instead it backfired.

The old woman found herself coughing more and more violently.

Zhang Jin immediately stepped forward to help the elderly woman regulate her breath.

Xiao was coughing so hard he was dizzy. The old woman, seeing the pain lessen in Qingxuan's eyes and replaced with a spark of spirit, felt a sense of relief.

"Ah Jin, is this the wife you brought back"at a glance. This skill was even beyond Zhao Zhongyang's capabilities.Even a one in ten million chance is enough to drive her crazy.At this moment, Joe Zhenxiong's phone rang. He picked it up and lear...
