Chapter 175 I Gave You a Chance
Sitting down at the table, Xie Zhuoning was not in a hurry. He poured himself a cup of tea and said slowly:
"Actually, your plan has many flaws."
"First of all, the Xie Mansion has strict rules and regulations. Without the approval of the higher-ups, it would be impossible for Aunt Liu to escape from the mansion and come to the Marquis' Mansion to find me."
"Secondly, if He Jinyun really wanted to give you to Master Jiang Wu as a plaything, he would definitely do it quietly without anyone knowing. How could he reveal the location of this place to Aunt Liu? And how could she tell me about it?"
"Finally, there are the guards in the courtyard. Their martial arts skills are obviously much higher than those of ordinary servants. They should be the guards in the palace, right?"
Knowing that she had a maid with strong martial arts skills, he specially found a few powerful guards to hold Xia Ju back and put her into the house alone...
"Let me guess. When I entered the room, you immediately closed the door. There was a faint fragrance in the room. So, you did something with the incense burner, right?"
Hearing her say all this in an orderly manner, Xie Zhiqing felt her hair stand on end and her whole body went cold.
She knows everything...
She knows everything!
It was only then that Xie Zhiqing realized what had happened, her face filled with horror, "Then you...then why are you fine?"
I was fine because I took the antidote in advance, but what about her?
Why didn't she get caught?
Xie Zhuoning smiled and shook the sachet on his waist, "Because I have this."
She also has to thank Ah Yu for giving her a first aid kit before she left. It contained all kinds of medicine.
The sachet is filled with refreshing herbs and spices, enough to keep her awake.
Xie Zhiqing looked at her as if she were a ghost, so she knew from the beginning that this was a trap, right?
"Since you knew there was a scam, why did you come here?"
Xie Zhuoning thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I would feel a little unwilling if I didn't come here to take a look."
She didn't know why Xie Zhiqing hated her so much, to the point of wanting to kill herself.
Obviously, there is no deep hatred or conflict of interest between them.
When she brought Xie Zhiqing and Murong Yan together, she sincerely hoped that her third sister would have the best in the future.
So she kept wondering, would Xie Zhiqing be used by He Jinyun just like Xie Wanyin?
It was not until she heard what Xie Zhiqing said today that she finally understood that there was no way forward for them.
When Xie Zhiqing heard this, her heart ached, but when she thought of her future brilliant life, she turned her head away with a cold face.
"At this point, there is no point in what you say, elder sister. Even if you know this is a trap, so what? This villa is surrounded by guards. Once you enter, don't even think about escaping!"
Her maid named Xia Ju might not be able to hold on under the siege of so many people, right?
Xie Zhuoning continued to sip his tea slowly, unhurriedly, "You don't really think that I'm pouring out my heart to you by talking to you for so long, do you?"
"What do you mean?" Xie Zhiqing was stunned.
Xie Zhuoning estimated the time and looked outside the door. "It should be about time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was broken open.
The four smart brothers grabbed a fat and big-eared middle-aged man and threw him directly into the house.
"Miss, I've captured you!"
Last time, Xie Zhuoning originally planned to return these people to Xiao Jinxuan, but that guy got very angry and he didn't dare to mention the matter again.
Therefore, Xie Zhiqing and the others were totally wrong to think that Xia Ju was the only person available to her.
Not to mention that she had the private seal given by Xiao Jinxuan and could dispatch Feiyun Guards at any time. Murong Yan had introduced so many strange people and exotic places to her during this period of time. She could pull out any two of them and they could stand on their own. How could she possibly take risks alone?
Lifting up the hem of her skirt and standing up, Xie Zhuoning walked up to the man and kicked him in the wound.
The man screamed "Ouch!" and rolled over in pain, revealing a bruised and swollen pig face.
Xie Zhiqing's heart trembled, and she asked uncertainly, "Who is he?"
"Hmm?" Xie Zhuoning raised his eyebrows and looked at her. "Didn't you keep saying that Master Jiang Wu was coming soon? Now that he's here, why don't you recognize him anymore?"
Her eyes suddenly narrowed, and Xie Zhiqing felt as if someone was choking her neck, "How dare you...how dare you?"
That’s Duke Zhao’s younger brother!
But she beat him like a grandson!
Xie Zhuoning poked Dan Kou nonchalantly, "The Crown Prince is the heir apparent of a country, I can scold and beat him, so why can't I beat him?"
Not to mention, Master Jiang Wu was a rotten man who had harmed so many women. She had wanted to beat him up for a long time!
Xie Zhiqing bit her lower lip, feeling a little regretful.
She shouldn't have spoken her true feelings just now and was in a hurry to break up with Xie Zhuoning...
"Now that things have come to this, Big Sister, you can kill me or mutilate me as you wish."
Seeing her stiff neck, Xie Zhuoning did not do anything to her, but just looked at her calmly.
"I won't kill you or beat you. If you want a good marriage, I will give you one. As you said, the Jiang family is worthy of you."
Realizing what Xie Zhuoning was going to do, Xie Zhiqing panicked and shook her head desperately, "No, I don't want to follow this old man... Big sister, I'm your sister, you can't do this to me!"
She rushed over desperately, trying to catch Xie Zhuoning.
But the four extremely smart brothers were like a solid wall of iron and copper, not giving her any chance to get close to them.
Xie Zhuoning listened to her words and lowered his eyes calmly, "Third sister, I gave you a chance."
Many, many opportunities.
In one's lifetime, one must pay a corresponding price for what one has done.
Since she has chosen to resort to unscrupulous means, she must bear the consequences of such unscrupulous means.
Xie Zhuoning turned around, walked out of the room, and immediately sealed the door with great intelligence.
Xie Zhiqing slammed the door vigorously, "Let me out, let me out, ah...don't..."
This scream was exactly the same as the one used to lure Xie Zhuoning into the house.
But this time, it's true.
Master Jiang Wu has never been a kind person. He was beaten by the four smart and capable brothers without any chance to fight back, and he had been holding a grudge for a long time.
Seeing Xie Zhiqing trying to run away, he grabbed her hair and threw her to the ground.
"You bastard, you still want to run away? How dare you, a concubine's daughter, despise me?"
“Pah—Pah—”
"Run! Run away from me again!"
Hearing the noise in the house, Xie Zhuoning walked out as if he didn't hear anything.
Xia Ju had already knocked down all the people in the yard and prevented them from leaving.
Now, no one here or outside will hear Xie Zhiqing's cry for help.
But this is not the end of the story.
The culprit who had been hiding perfectly behind the scenes is still safe and sound, nothing happened to him at all.
Xie Zhuoning asked Xia Ju to take him to the rooftop to wait and watch the show.
Sure enough, after a while, I saw He Jinyun and a group of ladies and daughters walking towards this side, talking and laughing...
