Seeing that her scheme had been exposed, Zheng Xiulan knew that saving her own life was now the priority. She planned to kidnap Qiuqiu to threaten Su Junyao and the people from the Marquis's mansion into releasing her and Qiao Muyang.
Her scheme is quite ambitious, but since Chiu Chiu can speak, she will definitely try to dissuade her from having such dangerous ideas.
This is extremely dangerous!
because……
Chiu Chiu watched Zheng Xiulan land in a beautiful arc, then rolled her eyes at her inelegantly, [Thirteen, super fierce!]
"Cough cough cough!" Zheng Xiulan curled up on the ground, feeling as if her internal organs had shifted.
Before she could get up, Ah San and Ah Si had already pinned her to the ground. She tried to speak, but Ah Si knocked her unconscious with a karate chop.
Why did you knock her unconscious?
Ah Si glanced at Qiu Qiu guiltily, then withdrew his hand and put it behind his back: "Sorry, it's just a habit."
"Where are you from? Why do you like to knock people unconscious before you even start a fight?"
Ah Si: “…”
When Madam Wen saw that Zheng Xiulan had fainted, perhaps it was maternal love at work, but she actually regained some clarity of mind, "Lan'er... uh!"
Ah Si stared at the slowly collapsing Wen Shi and Ah San's still-retracted hands: "???"
Ah San smiled naturally: "Sorry, I'm used to it."
Chuchu: [Your habits are really bad!]
Only after seeing Wen Shi and Zheng Xiulan tied up tightly did Qiuqiu finally feel relieved.
In the original book, although the male and female protagonists' halos are incredibly powerful, the source of their parents' lifelong tragedy is actually these two people.
She could smell the unpleasant odor coming from the Wen family's house as soon as she entered the door. The thought of her mother's fate in the book, where she was given an excessive amount of mind-altering herbs that drove her to madness and death, reminded her of the unpleasant smell that could be smelled in the book.
Her mother usually wiped her hands with fragrant dew even when looking at account books, so it's hard to imagine her becoming crazy and disheveled after being drugged with the mind-controlling herb. In her brief moments of clarity, she thought of the pain of losing her daughter, which was undoubtedly pushing her towards her death!
Chiu Chiu is now giving them a taste of their own medicine!
Let them fight each other!
I wonder if Qiao Muyang has been caught; he's a bad guy too!
Qiao Muyang had been feeling uneasy for the past few days, as if something was slowly slipping away from him. Looking at himself in the mirror, he even noticed that his face had become much duller.
He was just about to go out to see his mother when a commotion erupted and the butler burst in with his men.
He had a bad feeling in his heart; something must have happened!
However, he was calmer than Zheng Xiulan, showing no panic whatsoever. Instead, he feigned confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"
The old steward smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. After all, this man held an official title, and given the uncertainty about whether the matter was related to him, it was naturally inappropriate for him to make any moves right away.
"Something has happened at the manor. Please, Young Master Muyang, refrain from wandering around the courtyard today. This old servant will send someone to 'attend' to you. Please forgive me, Young Master Muyang."
"What happened?"
"I, a servant, don't know what's going on with the master's family. Master Muyang, just don't leave today." The housekeeper didn't want to talk any more. He waved his hand and a group of people filed in, guarding the four corners of the house and the door. "There are many things to do today, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave now."
"Young Master Muyang, please return!"
Qiao Muyang stood silently in front of the door for a long time, then turned around and closed the door without saying a word.
Is this an attempt to place him under house arrest?
"Something must have happened to Mother!"
He narrowed his eyes dangerously, his mind racing as he tried to come up with a reasonable solution.
Su Junyao and his group acted silently, without letting any word out except for the fact that Wen's illness was suspicious. By the time Qiao Muyang realized what was happening, he had no chance to resist.
Qiao Muyang was unwilling to accept his defeat, but he was helpless.
After much thought, he couldn't find a way to escape unscathed.
He swept the tea set aside, his usual calm and composed demeanor completely gone.
"How could this be..."
"No, no...it shouldn't be like this!"
A voice once told him that he was the master of this world. His life shouldn't have turned out this way.
He'll definitely be able to figure something out!
Of course you can!
Su Junyao took the witnesses and evidence to the Dali Temple. Secret messages also came back from the Ministry of Justice's agents in Jingzhou and Yucheng, indicating that the matter had made significant progress.
Lord He frowned and read through all the files with his subordinates, reviewing the entire sequence of events and feeling a chill run down his spine.
The mother and daughter plotted for over a decade, killing their husband, sister, and clansmen, all in order to one day replace the descendants of the Marquis's family and inherit the mansion.
How did they come up with such an absurd idea?
What's even more outrageous is that this whole family has been deceived for so many years?
"That's crazy!"
Lord He was reminiscing when he suddenly made eye contact with Su Junyao, and he immediately covered his mouth.
I accidentally blurted it out.
Su Junyao: "I also think it's pretty crazy."
"When would Lord He like to hear this matter?"
Lord He was serious as he handled the matter: "Now that we have all the evidence, I will order someone to arrest Wen and Zheng! First, take them to the prison, and when the Ministry of Justice returns, we will try all four cases together!"
"Thank you for your trouble, Lord He!" Su Junyao wished he could tear the ruthless mother and daughter to pieces right now! But he also felt sorry for his mother, whose own sister, who had always been so devoted to him, had treated her like this for her own selfish desires.
Seeing Su Junyao's unusual expression, Lord He sighed softly. He had served in the Dali Temple for many years and had seen all kinds of cases. The wickedness of human nature could not be described in just a few words.
"My deepest condolences, Lord Su. The most urgent task is to punish the murderer severely as soon as possible to comfort your mother's soul in heaven!"
"Thank you for your trouble, Lord He!"
Lord He was efficient and decisive. He opened a case, arrested the culprit, and immediately led his men to the Marquis of Wenyang's residence to apprehend Wen Shi and Zheng Xiulan.
When the group entered the Marquis of Wenyang's residence in a grand procession, Zheng Xiulan was already fighting with the Wen family.
Ah San and Ah Si stood guard outside the door. Thirteen ordered that they be spared, but didn't say anything about interfering with a fight. By a twist of fate, the scene of dogs fighting that Qiu Qiu had wanted to see had already come to pass.
Ms. Wen's mind is currently unclear; she alternates between lucidity and confusion, and speaks without thinking. She dares to say and do anything.
The dignified demeanor that the Marquis's wife had maintained for so many years finally crumbled at this moment. She was still the same woman in Jingzhou City, sleeves rolled up, engaging in a vulgar exchange of insults with her husband.
When she grabbed Zheng Xiulan's hair and fought with her, she showed no regard for mother-daughter affection whatsoever.
Zheng Xiulan roared in fury: "Let go! You crazy woman! Do you know you're going to kill Mu Yang and me!"
She was slapped across the face as soon as she finished speaking. Wen said, "I am your mother!"
Zheng Xiulan wasn't about to be taken advantage of. She flipped over and pinned Wen down. In the past few days, she had also inhaled a lot of mind-altering herbs and was gradually losing her mind. The hand holding Wen's neck was tightening its grip.
She died...
Her death would solve everything!
die!
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open, and when Lord He and his men rushed in, Madam Wen's pupils were already dilated and she had begun to lose consciousness.
Fearing that Zheng Xiulan might actually strangle him to death, he kicked the man away and placed his sword against Zheng Xiulan's neck: "You audacious Zheng, why don't you surrender!"
"Men, seize them all and take them into custody for trial!"
