The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 61

Deng Yan didn't understand why a voice was coming from the air. Qingyan saw Deng Yan's surprised expression and pulled her hand to show her the roof of the carriage. And certainly there was a python curled on top of the carriage roof. But if others can't see it, then it won't be of concern. They'll only think it's a delicate sculpture.

But when Deng Yan looked over she immediately saw the python's head. Seeing the python, Deng Yan subconsciously took a step back and thought to herself: 'If in the beginning, she didn't agree to work with Su Qingyan, then the one to die a tragic death would probably be her.'

However, she was glad she chose Qingyan.

"Yiniang, don't worry. That python won't harm you." Seeing Deng Yan's expression, Qingyan happily curled her lip. Perhaps she was thinking now how glad she was to have not sided with Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun. Else, Deng Yan might have been the first one she dealt with.

As for Jiang Mengrou, if Jiang Mengrou were to cross her, she would definitely not hold back either. After all, her only goal now was to overturn the entire Su manor. It'd be good to let Su Yun know just what kind of place the Su manor was.

"Fourth girl, I was just thinking, if in the beginning I were to go against you, you'd probably not let go of me, even not letting go of my children either." Deng Yan looked to Qingyan's expression and blatantly stated, "Seeing this python now, I'm truly glad that I agreed to letting you protect us."

After Qingyan confirmed that all the bodies were cleaned up, she once again returned to her carriage. She simply didn't care what Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun were going to do, but she also didn't mind Ning Siyao telling the Jingguo Marquis manor about this matter. After all, those people did die in a bizarre manner. I suppose when the time comes the news will spread to the capital city. As for what the others thought, she further more didn't care.

"Miss, don't worry if we pick of the pace we will arrive at Ganyun Temple shortly." Qingdai replied as she drove the carriage.

"No matter, there shouldn't be anymore incidences along the way." Qingyan said as she started to flip through the book of poems. On it were clusters of her notes written all over.

"Miss, this time Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun shouldn't have anything more to say! I reckon the gruesome deaths of these people will quickly spread to the capital." Chishao pulled back the curtain and said to Qingyan with a smile on her face, "Miss, if you're tried, you can rest for a bit.

Deng didn't expect that these servants by Qingyan's side were all first rate masters. However, they usually looked no different than regular servant girls, especially that unseen shadow guard just now.

The fourth miss before her eyes truly is no longer that weak and timid fourth miss.

"Yiniang, what are you thinking about?" Qingyan looked to Deng Yan with her head tilt.

She watched Deng Yan gaze to Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong and said, "Don't worry, fifth sister and Cong'er will naturally wake up in a bit. I just didn't want them to see those dirty things. Some things, just let me handle it. It's best if they can preserve their innocence."

Deng Yan never thought that this young girl before her would take so much into consideration. These kinds of things to them, perhaps didn't seem much, but for Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong, who'd grown up in the Su manor all their life, this was a bit cruel.

"Fourth miss, thank you for considering so much." Deng Yan stared at Qingyan for a while, unsure how to express her feelings. In the end, it just became a word of thanks.

"Yiniang, you don't need to worry for now. Since I promised you I would protect them, it's natural I would consider all this." Qingyan continued to flip through her book in hand, minding her own business. "Yiniang, if you're tired, you can rest for awhile. We should be able to arrive at Ganyun Temple shortly."
