The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 586 - Wrong Background



Chapter 586: Wrong Background

Xie Qiao narrowed her eyes, supported her head and listened carefully.

The old man was nervous, and his voice was trembling. “This old man… came from the Bai family of Xun County. Our family is the incense maker. However, the previous family master passed away and only left a daughter, who is my master…

“As the only heir of the Bai family, Master is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. When she was 18, her husband married into the Bai family to carry on the family line.”

The old man said a lot more later on.

The daughter of the Bai family was called Bai Qinxiang. The Bai family was in the incense business. Although it was a business family, it was a big family in Xun County and was quite famous.

Although the Bai family was a big family, there were not many people who were willing to be the in-laws.

Those who were talented were arrogant, those who had looks had no talent.

No matter how hard they tried, they could not find a suitable one.

When Bai Qinxiang’s father was still alive, he arranged for a person who was average in every aspect.

That son-in-law was not ugly, but he was only mediocre. He was literate, but he did not know much. He could only assist Bai Qinxiang.

Bai Qinxiang was raised as an heir since she was young. Her ability and talent was naturally not something that ordinary men could compare to.

She did not lack anything and was outstanding in every way. However, she ended up marrying someone who was not outstanding at all. How could she be willing?

Therefore, after the marriage, she got close to Pang Xiyuan.

However, as the head of the Bai family, she already had a husband and a son. Therefore, it was impossible for her to be a concubine.

The two of them only had occasional contact in private. It was just that she happened to be pregnant.

She and her husband rarely slept in the same room, so the time of pregnancy did not line up. She was afraid that others would gossip about her, so she secretly gave birth to the child. Then, she arranged for this old slave to be sent to the Pang family together with the child.

Therefore, Young Lady Pang was a b*stard.

This old slave had sons, daughters-in-law, and even grandchildren in the Bai family. Naturally, he had to do as the Bai family master requested.

However, the deaths of the members of the Pang family were very tragic. Bai Qinxiang was worried that she would be implicated, so she paid little attention to Young Lady Pang. In private, she did not take care of her. She only asked that this person not die.

After all, this old man was a servant.

At that moment, he did his best to tell her what he knew.

“Noble, my Master should not have anything to do with the fire murder case. My Master is the kindest. Every year in Xun County, the Bai family is the one among those who do the most good deeds. You can ask around…” The old man said carefully.

He also felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he would have been good and said nothing.

It was all because of the young lady. She got hold of him and asked him a lot about the fire murder case. Later, when she learned about it, she asked him to come and talk to this noble.

Who knew that this person did not appreciate his kindness at all, and even found out about the Bai family!

How did he find out?

How did he inexplicably remember to ask about the young lady’s background?

The old man had a helpless expression.

Zhao Xuanjing had someone take him away and guard him first.

“It seems that the person who had an affair with Nie Fei should be the current head of the Bai family, Bai Qinxiang.” Zhao Xuanjing guessed.

In that poem, the word “xiang” was mentioned repeatedly…

It was a hint.

Xie Qiao thought the same.

Zhao Xuanjing immediately asked someone to prepare a carriage and to go to the Bai family to check it out. Xie Qiao had nothing to do at the inn, so she followed them.

The Bai family was a big family in Xun County. It would not be easy for them to enter.

However, Xie Pinggang held the investigation token from the criminal division. He could even enter the administrative office as he pleased. After all, the Bai family was a business family, so they naturally had to treat Xie Pinggang and the others politely.

The head of the Bai family, Bai Qinxiang, personally came to welcome them.
