Chapter 523 Extra: Anyone Who Resists Will Be Slaughtered on the Spot
"Witch, you witch..." Old Madam She saw that Lin Luoxi had hurt her beloved second son, and angrily took her cane and hit Lin Luoxi.
Lin Luoxi reached out and caught She Taijun's dragon-headed cane, then pushed her backward. She Taijun lost her balance and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Don't think that just because you're old you I won't dare do anything to you. Be smart and get out of here." Her whole family are vampires; expect her to treat them well? Don't even think about it.
"Mother!" When the Gu family saw Lin Luoxi push Old Madam She to the ground, they dared not challenge this female devil Lin Luoxi anymore and could only timidly help Old Madam She up.
"What are you all standing there for? Quickly, ransack the house..."
Lin Luoxi was too lazy to waste words with these people, so she quickly ordered Chen Dong and his men to take the troops and move all of the Gu family's belongings out.
“Princess Changping, no matter how much power you have, you cannot confiscate our Gu family's property without any evidence.”
Gu Laosan was reluctant to give up his wealth and status, and dared to stand up and challenge Lin Luoxi because he was betting that Lin Luoxi had not found the evidence they had hidden.
"You want evidence, huh? Fine, I'll make you admit it to yourselves." Lin Luoxi sneered at Gu Laosan, raising her hands and clapping them in the air.
A short while later, Lin Luoxi's men came out carrying several boxes.
The Gu family members, who had something to hide, could no longer stand steadily when they saw those familiar boxes. They staggered and fell to the ground.
These boxes contained ledgers that recorded their embezzlement, smuggling, and other crimes, which Princess Changping had somehow managed to find.
It is said that once Princess Changping sets her sights on someone, no one can escape her clutches; there is no way to avoid her.
The Gu family never imagined that, being far from the emperor's reach, they could rest easy. Little did they know, their lives would be on the verge of collapse.
"What, aren't you going to say I don't have any evidence? Get up and take a look, isn't this evidence of your whole family's crimes?"
Seeing the pale faces of these people, Lin Luoxi curled her lips into a mocking smile and looked at them with disdain.
"Guards, drag the Gu family members outside the mansion gate, read out their crimes to the common people, and then behead them as a warning to the public."
Lin Luoxi originally wanted to do what Xiao Jingchen did and send people to a harsh and cold place, but when she thought of the evidence she had seen, she decided to send them to a harsh and cold place instead.
But then they felt it was too lenient on them, so they killed them all to quell the anger of the people.
"Princess Changping, spare my life, spare my life..." Having enjoyed most of her life, she was dragged to be beheaded. With tears and snot streaming down her face, Old Madam She knelt down and begged Princess Changping for mercy.
"Don't feel wronged. When you were begging for mercy from the maids around you, did they beg for it?"
"If your son and granddaughter were to abduct women, engage in child molestation, commit murder and arson, you could have stood up to stop them..."
With each sentence Lin Luoxi read, Old Madam She's head drooped a little lower. Not only did she not stop her, she also felt that those despicable couples were the ones who could be manipulated by their sons and grandsons.
"Marrying an unvirtuous wife ruins three generations. With your indulgence, she will turn her back on evil and commit crimes. It's already a blessing from your ancestors that you've come to this point."
"Someone, drag them away right now, so they don't get in my way." In the Gu family crowd, someone was so frightened that they wet themselves. Lin Luoxi, with her keen sense of smell, caught the pungent odor and pinched her nose tightly with a handkerchief in disgust.
"Grandma, I don't want to die! Grandma, I don't want to die! Please save me..."
"I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."
When the soldiers grabbed people and dragged them away, the Gu family descendants finally revealed their inner fear.
He wanted to break free from the soldiers' restraints and escape from here.
"Anyone who resists will be killed on the spot!" The screams of hundreds of people filled the air, so loud they felt like they were going to burst.
Lin Luoxi's face flashed with impatience, and she directly uttered harsh words.
The harsh words fell silent instantly, with only low sobs heard.
"Go and move all of Gu's things out..." Time was of the essence, and Lin Luoxi didn't want to waste any more time here.
"Yes!" Chen Dong replied respectfully, and led his men to begin searching the Gu family's residence.
Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan were not idle either; they also joined in the search.
This search revealed that the Gu family's basement also contained many underage girls, especially some pregnant young women.
When Lin Luoxi received the news and went with Xie Hanchuan, she was filled with rage as she saw the filthy, abused little girls and the women with swollen bellies in the dungeon.
"Guards, issue the order: all the women of the Gu family will be forced into prostitution, and the men will be sold into the Qingfeng Brothel, never to be redeemed. Let them taste what it's like to be played with..."
"Originally, I wanted to give them a quick death, but now, Lin Luoxi has changed her mind. These kinds of demons should be tortured and die in despair, so that they can be worthy of the other victims."
"Yes!" Chen Dong looked at the girls and women, who were suffering terribly, and his heart was filled with rage.
I always thought the Gu family was arrogant, domineering, and bullied men and women, but I didn't know they were so vicious that they didn't even spare such a young girl.
Without anyone else needing to go, Chen Dong personally ran out to stop the Gu family from being beheaded and ordered the soldiers to immediately sell the Gu family members to prostitutes.
"No, no..." The Gu family members thought death was terrifying enough, but who knew they would be sold to such a place? Their faces showed even more despair.
The people who were waiting at the gate of the governor's mansion saw the soldiers bring out the Gu family. When one of the soldiers was reading out their incriminating evidence, someone started throwing rotten vegetables and eggs at the Gu family.
Just when they thought the Gu family was about to be beheaded, someone ran out and said they wouldn't cut off the Gu family's heads. The small flames in the hearts of the people instantly ignited into a raging fire, and they were almost about to curse Lin Luoxi and the others for being incompetent.
But when the people heard Chen Dong say that he would sell the men of the Gu family to Qingfeng Tower and send the women to the military camp to serve as prostitutes, they cheered.
Some even took the lead and knelt down in front of the Governor's Mansion.
Once someone knelt down, a second person followed suit, and in no time, all the people in the city were kneeling before the Governor's Mansion.
Chen Dong was shocked when he saw this scene from the entrance of the Governor's Mansion.
Even the emperor's travels might not be accompanied by such a grand procession, but Princess Changping did it, making the entire city's populace willingly kneel before her.
He watched as the Gu family signed their indentures, then had the soldiers take them to where they were supposed to go before turning back to the governor's mansion.
The governor's mansion courtyard was filled with girls and pregnant women who had been captured by the Gu family, all sobbing softly.
"Chen Dong, didn't you spread the word about the girls and pregnant women being held in the Gu family's dungeon? Why isn't anyone coming in with you to retrieve them...?"
