Chapter 6 You Are a Loser
For a time, the Xie family members rose up to attack, and Lu Wanyin became the target of public criticism.
Everyone wanted to vent their resentment about having their homes raided and being imprisoned in the middle of the night on her.
Lu Wanyin was not bothered by it. She leaned against the prison door with her arms folded across her chest, watching the farce like an outsider.
“That’s enough!”
An old man in a dark blue Taoist robe stepped forward, stroking his pale beard. "It's just bad luck for the Xie family. Why are you blaming it on a woman?"
Lu Wanyin recognized him. He was the counselor that Xie Jingci kept in his mansion.
Xie Jing called him Xu Bo.
In his previous life, Xu Bo devoted himself to Xie Jingci.
He is a loyal and strategic person.
However, no matter how much he planned, he never expected that the emperor would be so cruel and ruthless that he would dare to kill important officials as soon as he came to power.
After being exiled, he took all the blame on himself and committed suicide to apologize.
Thinking of this, Lu Wanyin sighed again.
In her previous life, she was ignorant and didn't even know what was going on when she died.
In this life, she must uphold justice and punish evil.
Liuying always wanted to defend the lady, but as a servant, she did not dare to argue with her master.
As soon as Xu Bo finished speaking, Liu Ying also gained confidence and said, "That's right, how could the lady be a jinx? She is also a member of the Xie family now!"
"You are an outsider, what do you know?"
Xie Deyao's eldest son, Xie Ziqian, shoved Uncle Xu rudely. "He's just a dog raised by the Xie family. Besides, the Xie family is in jail, so why should we care about other people's opinions?"
Xie Deyao also snorted coldly and looked at Lu Wanyin meaningfully: "That's right, it was this unlucky person who married into our family and hindered the fortune of our Xie family."
These men didn't even dare to fart just now.
Now facing her, a woman, each one is more ferocious than the other.
Lu Wanyin glanced at them one by one with disdain.
Somehow, everyone felt that Lu Wanyin at this moment was full of bloodthirsty anger.
Zhou gnashed her teeth and said, "Kill her, and the fortune of our Xie family will naturally return."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stood on Zhou's side and wanted to kill Lu Wanyin as soon as possible.
Xie Derui endured the pain and said, "Who of you will do it? The sooner this woman gets out of the Xie family, the better."
Speaking of fighting, no one in the Xie family, who had been so excited just now, dared to stand up.
Even Xie Derui is not her opponent, who dares to come up
Go up there and die?
The Xie family members are very clear about their own strengths and weaknesses.
Xu Bo's beard stood on end with rage, and he glared at everyone, "You guys are really... just fooling around!"
"The new bride the General's family just married into is about to die in a violent accident. How will outsiders view the Xie family?"
"Uncle Xu is right. Anyone who dares to attack Madam will have to step over me!"
The person who spoke was Xuan Qi, Xie Jingci's personal guard. Because the emperor had secretly ordered that only Xie Jingci be summoned, he was left in the general's mansion.
The servants and Xie Jingci's personal guards were all locked up in other cells, so there weren't many people here who could protect Lu Wanyin.
Fortunately, Xuan Qi was smart and changed out of his guard uniform early in the morning, so he was not imprisoned separately.
Xuan Qi's skills are second only to Xie Jingci's.
Even if he was alone, he could fight off a group of people from the Xie family with one hand.
With Xuan Qi protecting her, even if the Xie family wanted to execute Lu Wanyin on the spot, they had to endure it.
Xie Ziqian was furious and said helplessly, "Xuan Qi, you have to understand clearly, you are a guard of the Xie family, it was this woman who caused my brother to be wronged. If you protect her, you are betraying my brother!"
Since we can't win, let's change our tactics.
In short, we cannot let Lu Wanyin, this unlucky star, go today.
Xuan Qi ignored him completely: "Before the general left, he instructed his subordinates to protect the lady. Second Young Master, as long as I am here, I will not let anyone hurt the lady!"
Unexpectedly, Xie Jingci misunderstood that I had drugged him, but he gave me some specific instructions before leaving.
Yes, he is a good man.
Seeing that Xuan Qi refused to listen, Xie Ziqian was so angry that he gasped for breath.
Led by Xuan Qi and Xu Bo, several maids and old women were sent to take care of Lu Wanyin, keeping her firmly within the circle.
He was obviously determined to protect her to the death.
It has to be said that although Xie Jingci has a group of ungrateful relatives, the people around him are all loyal.
Even when the General's Mansion had reached this point, he still remained loyal and never abandoned it.
It's really rare.
Even though the Xie family was furious, Lu Wanyin just crossed her arms and acted as if she was watching a show, with an attitude of indifference.
Liuying was already a little anxious: "Madam, they are really a bunch of beasts who eat people without leaving any bones!"
Lu Wanyin gently patted Liuying and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, they can't do anything to me."
…
After swallowing the jailer, the giant python seemed unsatisfied and ate many other jailers in the prison.
The appearance of a giant python in the palace is a rare event that happens only once in a century.
Not to mention that this giant python also injured many people.
The emperor was interrogating Xie Jingci in the empty palace hall when the chief eunuch came hurriedly to report.
Seeing that he looked hurried and violated the palace etiquette, the emperor frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
The eunuch glanced at Xie Jingci and whispered in the emperor's ear, "While escorting the Xie family to prison, Huo Kaicheng encountered an extremely ferocious flock of crows. Huo Kaicheng has died in the line of duty."
The emperor was stunned for a moment, but recovered his composure in an instant: "Go and investigate. How could the crows be their opponent?"
"yes!"
The chief eunuch responded, but his expression was still worried, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
The emperor was annoyed and asked: "What else could it be? Could it be that even the house was stolen this time?"
"Not really," the eunuch shook his head, then continued, "but dozens of families on East Street were robbed."
"What!"
The emperor was shocked.
Who on earth has such great ability to move so much valuables away overnight without anyone noticing?
The emperor was still in shock when the chief eunuch continued to report, "The Xie family is now imprisoned. A giant python appeared from nowhere in the prison and swallowed more than ten jailers alive."
"How could this be?"
The emperor was so angry that he could hardly breathe.
It's just a raid on a general's mansion, why are there so many strange things?
He asked in a deep voice: "Have you investigated where it came from?"
"No, it's said that no one saw the direction the python went. They only heard that it appeared out of nowhere."
This really stumped the emperor.
After calming down, the emperor lowered his eyes to look at Xie Jingci, who was now kneeling on the ground, his body covered with marks from being whipped.
Where is the former style of General Xie?
In fact, Xie Jingci was not guilty of any crime of treason.
It was just that he was worried that Xie Jingci's achievements would surpass his master's, so he found a random reason to deal with him.
If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you will always find a pretext.
Thinking of this, a strange guess suddenly emerged in the emperor's mind.
First, the imperial palace and the major families in Shengjing City were mysteriously robbed, then a crow suddenly pecked at the Imperial Guards, and a giant python devoured the jailer.
With so much chaos, could it be...
He treated Xie Jingci too badly, and the gods saw it and sent him down to punish him.
