Chapter 79 Paying Life
"Madam, you don't know that when I brought my aunt back, she was covered in wounds. If Housekeeper Lin hadn't invited the imperial physician to come and treat her in time, I'm afraid my aunt would be gone by now."
As Ai Ye spoke, tears began to flow again.
Wen Yingxue listened silently without saying a word. After Ai Ye finished speaking, she nodded, turned around and left.
Guan Ziming glanced at Wen Yingxue's back and said to Nie Chubai, "Master, Madam looks like she's going to start a fight. Why don't you stop her?"
Nie Chubai crossed his arms and said with a smile: "Why stop me? My wife wants to avenge my mother-in-law, why should I stop her?
Go and see if Ji Yan and Wu Nan have returned. If they have, ask them to take some people to the Wen Mansion.
Remember, if the Madam kills someone, you hand her the knife; if the Madam sets a fire, you keep watch. Never let the Madam stab a hair, or I'll hold you responsible."
Guan Ziming said "oh", took Wen Yingxue's Qingshui Sword, and hurried to follow.
Nie Chubai's horse was still parked at the gate. Wen Yingxue jumped on the horse, thinking of the riding skills Nie Chubai had taught her before. She kicked the horse's belly and the horse immediately galloped out.
"Hey! Ji Yan, do you see that's your wife? Why did she run away on horseback?" Wu Nan asked Ji Yan when he saw Wen Yingxue galloping past on horseback.
Guan Ziming soon rode over and shouted to Ji Yan and Wu Nan, "Hurry up! The Madam is going to fight. The Master said you must protect her. If she loses even a hair, he'll hold you two responsible."
When Ji Yan and Wu Nan heard this, they followed without thinking twice.
"Then hurry up, don't waste time. What if Madam suffers later?" Ji Yan frowned and quickly chased after Wen Yingxue.
Wu Nan also kept shouting: "Who is so blind as to dare to offend our wife? I want to watch the show, hehe!"
Outside the Wen Mansion, Wen Yingxue dismounted and took a look. The Zhang family's carriage was also there.
Wen Yingxue sneered. It was great that everyone was here, saving her the trouble of looking for them one by one.
After kicking the door, Wen Yingxue shouted, "Open the door!"
The doorman opened the door and saw Wen Yingxue. He immediately chuckled and said, "Sixth Miss."
Wen Yingxue didn't look at him and walked straight in.
In the hall, Old Man Wen, Lord Zhang, Old Madam Zhang, Lady Zhang, Wen Yuanan, and Wen Yuanming were all there.
Zhang sat aside with a gloomy expression, while Old Man Wen and Lord Zhang both looked very unhappy.
Father Wen said harshly, "What a fool! If you wanted to punish Lian, you could have just killed her. Why did you have to torture her? Now that she's been rescued by the General's Mansion, let's see how you'll end this."
"What's the use of rescuing her? That bitch has been poisoned and might be dead now." Zhang said firmly.
"Shut up! How could I have given birth to such a stupid daughter like you? Although the emperor is seriously ill now, Nie Chubai is a second-rank general of Huaiyuan, and he only favors that concubine's daughter.
Now that you've blatantly poisoned her aunt, haven't you considered the consequences?" Zhang Ge Lao said with a look of dismay.
"Lord Zhang is indeed worthy of his title. He is even smarter than your daughter. Lord Wen is no less clever. He is extremely vicious."
Wen Yingxue strode into the hall, her eyes like lightning as she looked at the people in the room.
When Old Man Wen and the Zhang family saw Wen Yingxue come in, their expressions changed.
Madam Zhang stood up and was about to come over to hold Wen Yingxue's hand, saying, "Sixth Aunt is back? Your grandfather and I already know about the matter of Aunt Lian this time.
Your mother was wrong in this matter. We have already scolded her. I apologize to you and your daughter on her behalf. Please don't take it to heart."
Wen Yingxue took a step back and avoided Madam Zhang's hand.
Old Man Wen stood by and said yes, yes, with a shy smile on his face.
Only the culprit, Zhang, was still sitting firmly in her seat, looking at Wen Yingxue with disdain, as if to say, "What can you do to me?"
"Madam Zhang, it was Zhang who did something wrong. Why do you want you to apologize?" Wen Yingxue looked at Zhang calmly.
For some reason, Zhang felt a chill all over her body when she looked at Wen Yingxue.
Then, she stood up and said that her two sons were promising and both the Wen and Zhang families would help her. But she was just a concubine and she could kill her if she wanted to.
"How dare you! I'm your mother, and you dare to call me Zhang? This is really lawless. I must teach you a lesson!" Zhang slammed the table and pointed at Wen Yingxue with an angry face.
Wen Yingxue looked at Zhang's fingers, narrowed her eyes, and reached back, but didn't touch the Qingshui Sword, so she frowned.
I was careless and didn't bring any weapons.
"Mother is right. Sixth sister is too presumptuous. She needs a proper lesson." Wen Rouqing walked into the hall and looked at Wen Yingxue arrogantly.
What’s the use of marrying well? You still don’t have the support of your family.
Her two biological brothers Wen Rouqing have both graduated from high school. No matter how well Wen Yingxue marries, she will still be inferior to her when she returns to her parents' home.
Looking at Wen Rouqing, whose tail was about to rise to the sky, Wen Yingxue made a displeased sound. She didn't know who Wen Rouqing was and why she was everywhere.
Wen Yingxue didn't waste any words and went straight to work. With her internal force, she slapped Wen Rouqing in the face, sending her flying two meters away.
"What? How can you interrupt me when my wife is talking?"
Old Madam Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were immediately shocked, and seeing Wen Rouqing had fainted, they hurried to help her.
Old Man Wen pointed at Wen Yingxue and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Wen Yuanan frowned and said, "Sixth sister, aren't you going too far?"
"I went too far? Wasn't it too much for your mother to poison my mother?"
Zhang Ge Lao looked at Wen Yingxue's arrogant expression and said with a stern look, "Sixth Miss, what exactly do you want after you come back today? Will you let this go?"
Zhang raised her head and stared at Wen Yingxue intently. Wen Yingxue met her gaze, smiled, and said, "Of course it's my life."
"You dare!" Zhang roared, but she was a little scared when she saw Wen Yingxue's appearance, and hurriedly hid behind Madam Zhang.
Father Wen said, "Xue'er, your mother was wrong in this matter, but you can't let your mother pay for her life with a concubine!"
Seeing Father Wen jump out, Wen Yingxue looked at him again: "Master Wen, although Concubine Lian is a concubine, she has been married to you for sixteen years and gave birth to a daughter. Now she has been poisoned and her life or death is unknown. Are you still helping the murderer and covering up the crime?"
Wen Yingxue then looked at the people in the room and said, "I'm not afraid of you. It was my fault for letting Zhang go before. Now I tell you, Zhang must die!"
Suddenly, Guan Ziming's voice suddenly came from behind: "Madam, take the sword."
Wen Yingxue turned around and saw Guan Ziming, Ji Yan, Wu Nan and twenty of Nie Chubai's personal soldiers entering the hall.
He caught the Qingshui Sword and unsheathed it. A flash of cold light startled Zhang and the others.
