The ones who broke into the Marquis of Jingyang's mansion were the legitimate Imperial Guards, and none of the servants, doormen, maids or nannies dared to stop them.
Miao Wan and Qiao Ruichen also arrived at the lobby of the Marquis of Jingyang's Mansion without any obstruction.
The Jingyang Marquis's Mansion looked very respectable, with its green tiles, gray walls and vermilion columns all looking brand new.
Miao Wan narrowed her eyes. All this was supported by the dowry left by Miao Wan's mother. There was no way she could keep a single brick or tile of the Jingyang Marquis's Mansion.
As for why the Yulin Guards came, it’s actually very simple.
In the past, Qiao Ruichen served as the deputy commander of the Yulin Guard. If it weren't for the Chen family's frame-up, he would have become the commander sooner or later.
Therefore, the commander of Yulin Guard, Lin Cheng, had already trained Qiao Ruichen as his disciple, but no one could predict the good and bad fortune that might come his way.
Lin Cheng understood that Qiao Ruichen's career was no longer in the capital, but they had been master and apprentice for several years, so he was naturally willing to give Qiao Ruichen face by speaking up for his wife.
This matter involves the filial piety of Dayue Kunimoto, so it is not easy for the saint to issue an order directly, especially when the regent may be desperate.
But Qiao Ruichen used his connections to ask the Yulin Guard for help, and the saint turned a blind eye. How could Lin Cheng not understand what he meant?
So Miao Wan brought the Kunlun slaves here to show off, and Lin Cheng brought the most elite Thirteenth Battalion of the Yulin Guard to really slap her in the face.
Jingyang Bo and his wife were invited out directly by the Yulin Guards, and Miao Wan was not willing to talk in the house.
Although it was still freezing cold, they could still tear the melons apart in the house. Those people outside who were listening intently or even quietly lying on the ladders that had not been removed would not be able to eat the melons.
Miao Shiren was not such an inconsiderate person, so it was more exciting to fight in the yard.
Jingyang Bo didn't dare to lose face for the Yulin Guards, and his expression turned ugly, but as soon as he came out, he pointed at Miao Wan and scolded her.
"Evil creature! I don't have a daughter like you. I would have expelled you from the clan long ago. How dare you come to my house?"
Miao Wan bowed to him respectfully, figuring that she would not be present at Uncle Jingyang's burial, so she just considered it as paying her respects in advance.
After getting up, Miao Wan had the calmness of someone talking to the dead, and even managed to smile, "I didn't come here to seek kinship with Uncle Yangyang, but to settle an old score with you and your concubine."
Wang's face turned pale. She turned her head and looked around the room several times. Only when her mother and cousin came out did she breathe a sigh of relief and wink at the two of them.
No matter how much you throw a tantrum and curse your ancestors, if you have something to say, just dump it out now and don't give Miao Wan a chance to bring up the past.
The old lady from the Wang family, with slanted eyes, high cheekbones and a narrow chin, came up immediately. She might not be good at anything else, but she was an expert at throwing a tantrum.
"Bah! How dare you, a cheap bastard, bring up old scores? Do you think I can't see the filth underneath your cheap skin? An orphan... Ouch!"
Old Mrs. Wang has been invincible in her life when it comes to throwing tantrums. She curses people dirty, rolls on the ground quickly, and tickles people fiercely. She has been able to sing the level of Invincible Loneliness since she was young.
But Miao Wan had already told Geng and her two uncles that she didn't understand why they should give beasts the opportunity to display their strengths?
If a dog bites you and you can't bite back, won't you hit the dog with a stick?
Adun had been warned long ago, but Old Lady Wang was still too quick, so Adun gave her a chance to open her mouth.
But, that’s it.
He exerted all his strength and kicked the old lady to the front of the steps under the lobby corridor. Her head hit the flowerpot in front of the steps. The "bang" sound scared Wang Baogen and Wang Shi so much that they trembled.
A Dun knelt on one knee, bowed his head and apologized loudly, "Master, please forgive me. I was slow to react and let this old woman dirty your ears. Please punish me."
Miao Wan felt as refreshed as if she had drunk some water. It was not because Adun knelt down, but because his kick was so powerful, it was worth at least one hundred taels of silver!
Uncle Jingyang reacted, but because Qiao Ruichen was there, he didn't dare to go forward. Instead, he looked very responsible and protected Wang, cursing with a red face.
"You evil beast! You evil beast! How dare you order this wicked slave to embarrass your grandmother..."
Miao Wan interrupted him with a sneer, "Uncle Jingyang should be more careful with his words. My grandmother died a long time ago. How can a lowly maid who used the excuse of tending to my mistress' illness to get along with my master and even conspired with him to kill her, be worthy of being my mistress? Uncle Jingyang must have forgotten the laws of Dayue!"
A trace of panic flashed across Uncle Jingyang's face. "What nonsense are you talking about! Your mother died of a lingering illness, and your stepmother was married to me in a dignified manner after three matchmakers and six betrothals. Not only did you slander your own father, but you even spared your stepmother. We, the Miao clan, don't have such an unfilial beast as you!"
Miao Wan smiled, tilting her head as she looked at Uncle Jingyang's timid expression. "You dare to say that because you're sure I don't have any evidence to prove how my mother died, or when you started getting together with this woman?"
Wang feigned weakness and cried, "If you have evidence, just bring it out. I married the Earl with a clear conscience, and you slander me, an Earl's wife, like this. I will go before the Emperor and seek justice!"
After a pause, she cried even harder, but her words were not vague at all, and her voice was not small, "I still remember that when I married into the Marquis of Jingyang's mansion, the eldest daughter of the mansion lost her mother and was in poor health. I always treated her like my own daughter and knew her very well.
Awan is obviously timid, weak and gentle, and definitely not as rampant and vicious as you are. Who on earth are you? You have taken over the body of my Miao family bloodline, and you dare to go to the temple! "
Miao Wan raised her eyebrows. She dared to be so arrogant, so she was naturally not afraid. Not to mention that she was not an evil ghost, even if she was, Qiao Ruichen's unconditional stand on her side gave her confidence.
She is no longer an orphan, she has a family.
Thinking of their family who were still waiting for them to return in the northwest, Miao Wan lost interest in continuing to tangle with these two scumbags.
The reason why she chose such a quick and decisive way of beating the dog was because Miao Wan had left her with a good situation.
That weak, timid, and even docile girl who didn't know how to move forward was, after all, taught by her mother, Ruan, and had some courage in her heart, leaving some traces.
Unfortunately, "Miao Wan" could never bear to let the father who gave her blood receive the retribution he deserved. She still had some hope for her father in her heart.
Therefore, when Miao Wan learned that her father had expelled her from the Miao clan, her feelings of hopelessness were so overwhelming.
But at that time, even if she had the courage to do something, it was too late after she was exiled to the northwest.
So she felt heartbroken, sad, conflicted, struggling, regretful, and worried about the Ruan family.
So many emotions weighed on a little girl who had been weak for more than ten years, and whose body was particularly fragile, became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
It was not the Qiao family but the Miao family who made her end up in the grave.
Miao Wan had exchanged identities with her, so of course she had to avenge her.
She waved her hand and ordered A Dun, "Take people to the woodshed in the side yard and dig out the evidence I left behind!"
Marquis Jingyang was stunned for a moment. Wang suddenly panicked, and her voice became much sharper. "How dare you! This is Marquis Jingyang's residence. You're a married woman expelled from the clan. Who gave you the right to trespass into a private residence?"
She shook Uncle Yangyang's arm and said, "Master, you are not going to let others bully you like this!"
Uncle Jingyang realized that he was not so cautious when he was fooling around with Wang. After all, Ruan was seriously ill and Miao Wan was just a child of a few years old.
No one could guarantee whether Miao Wan had left any evidence, so he immediately called out, "Where are the people? Are they all dead? Stop them! I'm a third-rank Earl of Jingyang after all, how can I allow you to act so recklessly here!"
Miao Wan was too lazy to talk to these two noisy guys and glanced at Qiao Ruichen.
Qiao Ruichen immediately stepped forward, kicked away the servant who came to stop them, and personally took A Dun to the place where Miao Wan said to dig up evidence.
He had always wanted to know how much suffering his daughter-in-law had endured in her childhood, but he couldn't bear to know that she had suffered so much.
Because of his complicated emotions and Qiao Ruichen's good kung fu, he went to the backyard with an expressionless face and an invincible momentum.
When Wang saw Qiao Ruichen leave and Miao Wan standing there alone, she glared at her cousin fiercely.
Wang Baogen, who was originally supporting his aunt, was also smart. He broke through the obstruction of the Yulin Guards and suddenly pounced on Miao Wan.
"I'll beat you to death, you bitch who slandered my cousin!"
Lin Cheng frowned, but thinking of Qiao Ruichen's instructions, he resisted the urge to go over and protect Miao Wan.
The two remaining Kunlun slaves beside Miao Wan kicked Wang Baogen out directly.
Just as Wang Baogen was cursing, there was a sudden loud bang, and the tiles above him and Old Lady Wang's heads exploded and hit them in the face.
Both the loud noise and the two people's screams scared everyone present.
Miao Wan smiled and said, "Everyone, take a good look at this. Helping your cousin to commit crimes and kill people while still crying thief will lead to retribution. Even God will not tolerate this."
Wang's face turned pale and she screamed, "You're talking nonsense!"
Miao Wan raised her voice, "Oh? Then I swear to heaven, if even one word I say is a lie, I will be struck by lightning! Do you dare to swear that you and Uncle Yangyang didn't murder my mother and want to wipe out my maternal family, the Ruan family?"
Wang's face turned even paler. She looked at the tiles that broke for no reason and didn't dare to speak.
When Old Lady Wang came to her senses, she saw the people lying on the wall watching the fun, and her heart skipped a beat. She knew best how powerful rumors were, and she had originally planned to deal with the bitch Miao Wan in the same way, and she would never tolerate any gossip from others.
She spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm viciously, "I will fuck your ancestors, you little bitch, how dare you curse and swear in front of me? My daughter is kind-hearted and I am not someone to be trifled with. I also dare to swear to heaven, if our Wang family ever harms Jingyang Bo's first wife even a finger, heaven will punish you-"
"Bang!" Another loud noise rang in Old Lady Wang's ears.
Miao Wan leaned against the Kunlun slave in front of her to cover her sleeves, and the small revolver hidden in her sleeves was stuffed back into her sleeves.
Gu Shuyao is very proficient in weapons, and it is impossible to let everyone use such weapons, but with enough rare earth minerals, it is still possible to get her a mini revolver.
This type of revolver can only fire one bullet at a time. She deliberately didn't bring any sleeve bags today, just to confirm the divine punishment.
Anyway, she has eight bullets.
Old Mrs. Wang turned around in amazement and saw that the flowerpot, which had been deformed by her collision, was now broken into pieces.
If this were her head... Old Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and fainted.
The people who were lying on the wall watching the excitement didn't care about their fear of the Yulin Guards and made a commotion from afar.
"Oh my god! That old woman got what she deserved!"
"Oh my God, Uncle Jingyang and his second wife killed his wife?"
"What do you mean by 'second wife'? Didn't you hear clearly? She's just a lowly maidservant, at best a concubine who climbs into bed. Tsk tsk... Our Lord Yue forbids taking concubines as wives, and he's a third-rank baron."
"Don't talk nonsense, there is no evidence."
Speak of evidence, and there you have it.
Qiao Ruichen strode over with a gloomy face. If Miao Wan had not held his hand, Miao Wan felt that he might have gone over and strangled Uncle Yangyang to death.
Miao Wan learned from her memory that the place where "Miao Wan" lived was not even as good as the servants. In addition, several years had passed, and there might be a lot of spiders and rats there. It must have looked extremely miserable.
"Did you find it?"
Qiao Ruichen gritted his teeth and stared at Uncle Yangyang with a murderous look. He almost squeezed out the words from between his teeth, "Found it."
There were bloodstains on the evidence. It was obvious that it was left by his daughter-in-law when she was a child digging a hole. When he thought of such a young child living in such a miserable place, and wondering what kind of mood she was in when hiding these evidences, he had the urge to kill.
Uncle Jingyang's legs became weak from being stared at by him, and when he heard that there was evidence, he could hardly stand.
Miao Wan took the bloodstained blue bag from Qiao Ruichen's hand. Seeing the blood on it, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
After opening it, there was a medicine bowl with a black bottom, black silver needles in the bowl, and a half-burned letter at the bottom of the bowl.
She took a deep breath, and without even looking at the limp Marquis of Jingyang and his wife, she turned directly to the Yulin Guards.
Lin Cheng was able to ask the Yulin Guards to support her, but it was not just to support her. It all depended on whether she could produce evidence.
At this moment, she held the evidence high above her head, and her tone was so strong that everyone watching could hear clearly what she said.
"Wan Niang, the daughter of Ruan's daughter who married out, discovered at a young age that her biological father had murdered her in order to seize her mother's dowry. She requested that the Imperial Guards present the evidence to Your Majesty. This is one."
"Wan Niang, the daughter of Ruan's daughter who married out, sued Wang Shi for colluding with her biological father to poison her mother's medicine, harm her mistress, and embezzle her dowry. The evidence is also here. This is the second one."
"Wanniang, the daughter of Ruan's daughter who married out, sued the Earl of Jingyang for marrying his concubine. I ask Your Majesty to make the decision. Wanniang, the daughter of Ruan, demands the return of Ruan's dowry. This is the third."
"Wanniang, the daughter of Ruan's daughter who married out, sued the Marquis of Jingyang for being heartless and disloyal. They expelled the legitimate daughter from the clan when she had done nothing wrong, then added her back to the family tree when she returned to the capital in good standing. Later, because the legitimate daughter revealed her true identity, they expelled her from the clan again, treating the family tree as a joke. This is the fourth."
Miao Wan looked coldly at the pale-faced Mr. and Mrs. Jingyang. Four was auspicious enough for them.
She glanced at the Miao elders who had hurried over after hearing the news. "Marquis Jingyang and the Miao clan treat their clan bloodline as a joke, and they also treat the laws of Dayue as a joke. Marquis Jingyang deceived the emperor's grace and granted him a concubine. Such a scumbag is unworthy of being a third-rank marquis in Dayue, and the Miao clan is unworthy of serving in Dayue. I only ask the saint to see for himself!"
Lin Cheng took a deep breath, took the evidence from Miao Wan's hand, and looked at Qiao Ruichen deeply.
Good boy, he always felt that Qiao Ruichen was not cruel enough and was too gentle when he was in the Yulin Guard.
Unexpectedly, his good fortune was to marry a cruel wife. This rake was enough to nail the Jingyang Earl's Mansion into the ground and prevent them from getting up.
What Lin Cheng didn't know was that Miao Wan had just begun to show her potential.
The author has something to say:
The second blow isn't over yet, the next one will be even more satisfying! The revenge owed to Miao Wan and her mother will be exacted without a single shred of regret.
See you tomorrow~
