Chen Yaozu reached out and touched Su Yujiao's rosy cheeks, her face flushed and glistening with sweat; she was truly adorable.
Su Yujiao turned her head away, trying to calm herself down.
I've heard that Wang Heng is brave but lacks strategy; such a flawless plan doesn't seem like something he would come up with.
Su Yujiao glanced at Chen Yaozu again and immediately denied it.
She knew Chen Yaozu's true capabilities; he was a typical ruthless yet stupid man.
Who could have come up with such a vicious plan to target her?
Chen Yunniang?
This was Su Yujiao's subconscious thought.
Chen Yunniang knew about the grudges between her and the two Zhu women, and she also learned from Lu Ziqian that her mother-in-law had gone to the estate.
Therefore, as long as Lu Ziqian is sent away, the plan to have Mo Shu seriously injure her will succeed.
Once Lu Ziqian returns, her reputation will be ruined, and Chen Yunniang will be able to marry into the General's Mansion openly and legitimately.
Yes! It must be her!
Su Yujiao suddenly stared at Chen Yaozu with a sinister look: "Chen Yaozu, I will haunt you even as a ghost."
"It is said that if a woman who dies with resentment wears red before her death, she will transform into the most ferocious ghost."
"Chen Yaozu, I will haunt you day and night to take your life."
Chen Yaozu was frightened by her fierce eyes. When he saw Su Yujiao dressed in red, the image of a female ghost in red flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but shiver.
“You…you have a grievance to settle, go and take Chen Yunniang’s life, don’t come looking for me.”
"She came up with all the solutions; I was just a messenger."
"General Wang originally wanted to take her as a concubine, but she said that taking you as a concubine would be more insulting."
"General Wang only set his sights on you after hearing her suggestion."
Regardless of whether Su Yujiao will become a vengeful ghost, explaining a few things won't take much effort.
The solution wasn't his idea to begin with; he didn't want to be a scapegoat for Chen Yunniang.
After Chen Yaozu finished explaining, he lost interest and quickly had someone take her away.
He had intended to go to Wang Heng to claim credit, but instead of Wang Heng, he met his own servant.
"Did Chen Yunniang want to see me about something?"
"Yes, they said it's a very important matter and they must send someone there."
Chen Yaozu frowned and reluctantly followed the servant.
Not long after Su Yujiao was locked in the room, someone pushed the door open and went in.
The two looked at each other, and the woman neither cried nor made a fuss, but just quietly looked at him.
Wang Heng looked at the woman bound hand and foot on the bed, a look of amazement flashing in his eyes.
The woman wore a red wedding dress, her skin was as smooth as cream, her face was rosy and her cheeks were like peach blossoms in the spring, tempting one to pick them.
What's most stunning are her shimmering eyes, like a flowing river of stars, captivating and mesmerizing.
He had only heard that Su Yujiao was madly in love with Lu Ziqian. Whenever Lu Ziqian was around, Su Yujiao would appear, but she would always cover herself with a veil. He never knew that Su Yujiao was so beautiful.
It's so beautiful, it's breathtaking at first glance!
Wang Heng was somewhat mesmerized, his eyes gleaming, and for a moment he forgot to react.
It was Su Yujiao who spoke first: "General Wang, aren't you going to untie me?"
Wang Heng realized that this woman was quite interesting; she didn't cry or make a fuss in this situation, and even dared to take the initiative to talk to him.
She's much more pleasing to the eye than those women who only know how to cry and whine.
Wang Heng walked to the bedside and looked down at her. Su Yujiao met his gaze and said, "Thank you, General Wang."
The man gripped her chin and sneered, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Is General Wang really that scary-looking?"
"Besides, we have no grudge against each other, so why should I be afraid of you?"
"Hahaha, interesting." Wang Heng laughed unrestrainedly; this little girl was indeed very much to his liking.
"I have no grudge against you, but I have a deep grudge against your man."
"I brought you here to humiliate Lu Ziqian. Your attempts to seduce me were useless."
"I'll torture you properly and let Lu Ziqian know what happens when he offends me."
Su Yujiao pouted: "Then you've arrested the wrong person."
"Arresting me will only make him feel better."
"If you were to inquire, you would know about our relationship."
“He wanted to marry Chen Yunniang, but for some reason, he had to marry me back then, so he has always hated me to the core.”
"Now you've solved a huge problem for him. Not only does he not hate you, he'll thank you instead."
“A few days ago, he deliberately took me to the mountains, made me get lost, and spread rumors that I had eloped with someone.”
"In his own words, it would be best if I died in the mountains, but if I managed to escape, he could use rumors to divorce me."
"It just so happens that I saved the youngest son of Imperial Censor Liu, which proves that I didn't elope, but just got lost."
"He failed to divorce me as he wished, and instead whipped me in public."
"Everyone in the General's Mansion knows about this matter; General Wang will find out as soon as he investigates."
"You think you've humiliated Lu Ziqian, but little do you know he's secretly enjoying it at home."
As Wang Heng listened to Su Yujiao's words, he recalled Lu Ziqian's disdainful expression when he called him simple-minded and all brawn and no brains, and his anger flared up.
The man kicked over a chair in anger: "Don't try to provoke me. I won't let either you or Chen Yunniang get away with it."
"I'll deal with you first, then I'll go and take care of Chen Yunniang."
Wang Heng pounced on her like a wolf, pinning her down. The woman was terrified and scratched and clawed at him.
Snap!
Wang Heng slapped her, then casually unbuckled his belt and roughly tied her hands to the headboard.
Then, he started kissing and nibbling at her face like a wild boar.
Su Yujiao struggled in vain, so she took a big bite.
"Ouch!" Wang Heng jumped up in pain.
"You rascal... I'll beat you to death with this spicy sauce."
The man was furious, searching for something while muttering incoherent curses.
He took a black whip from the wall and began to lash the woman on the bed with it.
With her hands bound, Su Yujiao couldn't dodge and could only endure the excruciating pain of her torn skin.
Bang!
The door was kicked open from the outside, and before Wang Heng could even see who it was, the other person delivered a flying kick that smashed his testicles.
Lu Ziqian walked to the bedside and looked at the woman's hand-bound, disheveled clothes, and torn skin, and couldn't help but frown.
How stupid of me, always getting myself all bruised and battered.
He took off his coat and covered the woman with it. Then he went to Wang Heng's side, severed his tendons, and stabbed him 108 times, but avoided vital organs with every stab.
As Lu Ziqian carried the woman away, he said to the Marquis of Jing'an who had rushed over upon hearing the news, "This matter is not over yet."
"You'd better be prepared to have the entire Marquis's mansion buried with you."
Su Yujiao curled up in Lu Ziqian's arms, trying her best not to cry, and just held him tightly.
Just now, at her most desperate moment, Lu Ziqian came to her rescue like a savior descending from the heavens.
She watched the fleeting pity in his eyes, watched him angrily stab Wang Heng into a sieve, and watched him coolly utter harsh words, vowing to take the entire Marquis's mansion down with him.
Her frozen heart seemed to stir slightly, a tiny crack appearing.
