A shrill scream came from the bamboo forest, startling the birds living in the forest.
Dao Lao Da was extremely angry with Lan Yu. After tying her up, he gloated, "You have come to this day. I will let you wait for death here and let you taste what Gui Yuan has suffered."
"I didn't kill him, I didn't kill him." Lan Yu shouted, "You are so vicious at such a young age, you will not have a good death, following that bitch Xia Zian, you will not have a good ending."
"No matter how bad the ending is, it's not as bad as yours. Look at what you've become now. You didn't kill Guiyuan, but if you hadn't rescued Guiyuan tonight, would he have been eaten by wolves in the wild? And Xiaosun, if she had committed suicide, you would have owed her two lives. I hate people like you the most. Your own life is life, but other people's lives are not life?"
Lan Yu shook her head in panic and struggled hard, "No, let me go and I'll give you silver. I'll give you as much silver as you want, okay?"
Dao Lao Da was unmoved. "Instead of begging me, you might as well think about how many bad things you have done in your life. This is not the eldest lady punishing you, but God punishing you. My mother said that when a person reaches the point of leaving everything to fate, it depends on how you behave in your daily life."
Zi'an was watching Boss Dao from afar and listening to his words. He really didn't expect that this silly boy could actually say such philosophical words.
After Boss Dao finished speaking, he turned around and left, ignoring Lan Yu's screams.
Seeing Zi'an outside the bamboo forest, he said dejectedly, "Miss, the wood is gone and the wall has been torn down. What should we do?"
Zi'an looked at a pile of blackened wood and the newly built wall separating the prime minister's residence from the back garden. The wall had not yet been completed and now it had turned into a pile of rotten bricks.
She pulled up a faint smile and said, "Very good."
"Very good?" Boss Dao looked at her in confusion. Was the young lady angry and confused
"The old lady said something tonight, and I really learned a lesson."
"What?" Boss Dao asked doubtfully. He had been listening the whole time but had no idea what was said that could teach the young lady a lesson.
"The wood was burned and the wall was knocked down. The old lady said that we might have framed her for this. So, shouldn't we turn around and think that the explosion of the rockery corridor was also done by them? Then, when they attack, I can also claim that they wanted to frame me?"
Boss Dao didn't understand, but looking at the strange smile on the eldest lady's face, she seemed very powerful.
Anything he doesn't understand must be very powerful.
"Xiaodao, help me find some saltpeter, sulfur, and gunpowder. Don't let anyone see you. Buy them secretly."
"Okay!" Boss Dao responded.
Lan Yu's shrill, panicked voice came from behind, hysterical, Dao Lao Da said: "Miss, do you think she will be bitten to death by a poisonous snake tonight?"
Zi'an said softly: "Xiaodao, although snakes are poisonous, they will not attack you unless you offend them, unless they feel threatened."
"ah?"
Zi'an walked slowly, "If she stays quiet tonight, doesn't scream, doesn't talk, and doesn't try to drive away the snakes that surround her, then she can get out alive."
Boss Dao exclaimed, "Does the young lady intend to let her go?"
Zi'an shook his head. "Xiaodao, what you just said makes sense. When a person leaves everything to fate, what determines life and death is what she has done in her life. Lan Yu has a strong sense of rage. When a person has a strong sense of rage, even a scream carries a strong threat. Snakes are very sensitive and they can distinguish the aura of a person."
Only then did Boss Dao feel relieved. They would not be willing to accept the death of Lan Yu.
Nowadays, anyone who despises life should be despised by others.
Madam Linglong and Shuyu were in the elegant room in the back garden when they heard a shrill cry coming from the bamboo forest. The cry went on for a long time, and then there was no sound.
After everything fell silent, Madam Linglong said to Shuyu, "If Xia Zi'an doesn't die, there will be no peace in the Xiangfu."
Lan Yu still died.
Along with Lan Yu died, the long corridor in the rockery lake also died.
Boss Dao found gunpowder overnight, and no one knew where he got it from. Anyway, there was a loud bang in the early morning, and the prime minister's residence was blown up to the ground.
The long corridor in the lake connecting the front and back yards was blown up, and part of the rockery standing in the lake was also blown away. The smell of powder and gunpowder lingered for a long time.
When the old lady heard the news, she fainted on the spot.
Prime Minister Xia rushed out and saw only a mess.
Xia Zian, you are dead!
He said through gritted teeth.
The next morning, Zi'an went out with his medicine box as usual, as if nothing had happened last night.
However, at the door, he was stopped by Prime Minister Xia.
"Did you do it?" Prime Minister Xia's face turned pale and he stared at Zi'an with eyes like a wolf.
Zi'an raised his head, a faint smile on his lips, "Are you trying to put the blame on me, Prime Minister?"
"If you dare to do it, why don't you dare to take responsibility for it? You have never been like this." Prime Minister Xia looked at her with contempt.
Zi'an moved the medicine box and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Prime Minister!"
Didn't she learn this kind of shamelessness from them? Zi'an suddenly realized that this one-push-four-five-six method was really useful. Yes, she did it, but she didn't admit it, so what
"Xia Zian, you didn't give yourself a way out, so don't blame me for being ruthless in the future."
Zi'an smiled lightly, "So, the Prime Minister has always been lenient with my men? By the way, speaking of the corridor and the rockery, the wood and the wall were also wantonly destroyed last night. Did the Prime Minister know about this?"
Prime Minister Xia's eyebrows were beating with anger, "So, you are seeking revenge?"
"Revenge?" Zi'an smiled and turned away. "What do you think I have been doing these days, sir? Isn't it just these two words?"
Prime Minister Xia looked at her back and his shoulders slowly slumped.
This daughter has finally turned away from me.
Lan Yu's body was carried out, and when it was carried out, the body was already cold.
She was bitten to death by a poisonous snake. Her eyes were not closed and one could still see the shattered panic in them.
It is conceivable that she was extremely frightened before her death.
But none of the servants in the mansion had any sympathy for her. When they thought of all the things she had done in her life, they all felt relieved.
Except jade.
Cui Yu knelt down in front of the old lady, crying, and begged her to give Lan Yu a proper burial.
The old lady had just taken a breath, her face was still very pale, and her hands trembled as if she had heard the decree of death.
"I asked you to find a wizard before. Have you found him?" The old lady frowned and stared at Cui Yu.
"Old lady?" Cuiyu was startled, remembering that when the fire broke out, the old lady said she wanted to find a magician, but then she said she didn't believe in these things and didn't allow her to go.
Now, does she believe it
The old lady took a breath and felt her chest ache. "She is an evil ghost. She must be an evil ghost, otherwise she wouldn't have such a vicious heart."
Cuiyu opened her mouth and wanted to say that the eldest lady was fighting back, but she knew that the old lady would be furious if she said this.
Cuiyu said softly, "After the fire, I secretly asked a wizard to take a look. The wizard said that the young lady was not possessed by a ghost."
In fact, she hadn't looked for it, but she didn't want to look for it.
Because she believed that the eldest lady was an evil ghost, and if she went to find a wizard, the eldest lady would kill her first.
After what happened during this period of time, she was completely afraid of the once cowardly young lady.
She still wanted to live, even if it was a cowardly life.
