Chapter 7: Disposal

007. Disposal

Yun Qin lightly lifted her eyelids to look at the newcomer. He was handsome with an air of righteous dignity; he was Yun Han, the son of Yun Zhong, the loyal servant by her grandfather's side. Since the destruction of her dantian, he had been assigned to protect her.

Yun Qin said indifferently, "Help me up, and quickly carry Hong Xiao back to the room. We will discuss other matters later."

Yun Han stood up, said "pardon my intrusion," and helped Yun Qin up, then carried Hong Xiao inside and placed her on a soft couch. His expression was heavy. "Her pulse is very weak. I will go find a physician immediately."

"Wait." Yun Qin checked Hong Xiao's pulse and instructed, "There is no need to find a physician, I can do it. Go find me a set of silver needles."

Although Yun Han was surprised that Yun Qin actually knew how to take a pulse, he remembered his duty. He did not ask what he shouldn't ask and retrieved a set of silver needles as quickly as possible.

While Yun Han had been away just now, Yun Qin had performed CPR on Hong Xiao. Now, taking the silver needles, she immediately began applying acupuncture.

In a short while, twelve silver needles were inserted around Hong Xiao's chest. The precision of her acupoint recognition made Yun Han click his tongue in amazement.

After about fifteen minutes, Yun Qin withdrew the silver needles, selected a smaller one, and pricked Hong Xiao's philtrum. With a sharp hiss, Hong Xiao slowly opened her eyes.

"Miss, are we dead? Wuu wuu... but it's so good that Hong Xiao can still stay by your side to serve you." Seeing Yun Qin sitting safely beside her, Hong Xiao gripped her hand excitedly. Because her neck had just been strangled, her voice was somewhat hoarse.

Yun Qin had heard everything Hong Xiao had just done.

Even though she was not the real Yun Qin, she was still moved by her loyalty, so she intended to save her and ensure her safety.

She withdrew one hand, tucked the stray hairs on Hong Xiao's cheek behind her ear, and said helplessly, "Silly girl, didn't you just wake up from the pain?"

Hong Xiao was not stupid; she realized it instantly and burst into tears of joy. "Miss, you didn't die, and neither did I?"

Yun Qin nodded with a smile. After pouring a cup of water for her to drink, she said, "Your throat is hoarse, so you must speak less. Lie down and rest well; I have matters to handle."

"Mhm." Hong Xiao obediently lay down and closed her eyes submissively.

Yun Qin walked out with Yun Han. Those few maidservants and the two old women were still kneeling there.

A cold glint flashed in her eyes as Yun Qin said chillingly, "Yun Han, I do not wish to see these people again. Since Yun Mo said that if they are disobedient they should be sent to a brothel, then send them all to a brothel."

The people who had been bowing their heads immediately began thumping their foreheads against the ground, begging for mercy. "Miss, please spare us! We will never dare again!"

"Once disloyal, never to be used again!" Yun Qin remained unmoved. "Do not blame me for being cold-hearted. If I let you go, there is no guarantee you won't conspire with Yun Mo to harm me again! Take them away."

Yun Han realized that Yun Qin had changed, but this change was a good one. If the old master came out of seclusion, he would surely be very gratified.

Without saying much more, Yun Han struck the acupoints of those people and then went to call a human trafficker to take them away.

"Young Mistress, would you like to replenish a few more servants?" Yun Han asked.

The Young Mistress preferred quiet. There were only six servants in Biqin Garden in total, and now that five had been taken away, it was inevitable that some would need to be replaced.

"No need. It is not necessary to have many people serving me; one or two loyal ones are enough." As Yun Qin spoke, she sat down in a rocking chair under a tree in the courtyard. "Tell me, what happened this morning?"

Yun Han was someone sent by the original owner's grandfather, so he was certainly loyal to her. She wanted to find out why he, who usually never left her side for even half a step, had been gone for over two hours.
