Chapter 2: Robbing the House, But Getting Nothing
xile.Alas!Starting with a terrible hand, she Ginger never gives up. Even with a bad hand, she plays it beautifully.Just as she was stunned, Shen Qian, who had been cleaned up by her before, suddenly p..."Deputy General Lü, for the sake of our Jiuyuan family, can you please go easy on them"
The old lady looked at the dilapidated mansion, which had been ravaged by the Imperial Guard, her heart aching with grief.
"Grandma."
The general at the head of the procession was none other than Lü, a former deputy general under the Warlord. He gazed proudly upon this group of women.
"The Emperor decreed that Song Jiuyuan attempted rebellion, and both the person and the evidence were found. Considering that Song Jiuyuan had made great contributions in the past, "
This is already a case of leniency. He wasn't beheaded, only stripped of his military command, demoted to commoner status, and exiled with his family's property confiscated. This is the Emperor showing mercy."
He uttered a few words that made the ladies of the War King's Mansion cry even harder. They knew this time they were probably in grave danger, and their despair left them no energy to care about the ravaged mansion.
"My elder brother has been kind to you, and this is how you repay him"
Speaking was Song Jiuyuan's younger brother, Song Juchi. His bloodshot eyes glared at Lü Fubing, who seemed to be lost in his victory.
If it weren't for his older brother's promotion, this person would still just be a gatekeeper!
Now things are different, he even proactively comes to steal our stuff. He's eager for such a good deal It's obvious that he is the Sixth Prince's lackey!
Lieutenant Lu let out a disdainful snort, ignoring Song Jiuchili's furious gaze. He waved his hand dismissively and ordered:
"Make sure you investigate thoroughly! Find all evidence of Song Jiubian's rebellion, and seize all his assets!"
The Imperial Forest Army surged forward, pummeling the guards trying to block their way. Gingerly stood calmly in a corner, finally finding time to sort out the plot points of the book.
On the second day after entering the War General's mansion through various schemes by the original owner, the War General's mansion was ransacked and the original owner only served as a queen for one day.
However... even when exiled, the original owner remained unchanged, constantly making reckless decisions along the way, infuriating the villain and ultimately dying during the exile.
Alas!
Starting with a terrible hand, she Ginger never gives up. Even with a bad hand, she plays it beautifully.
Just as she was stunned, Shen Qian, who had been cleaned up by her before, suddenly pointed the finger at Jiang Wan.
"It's her, it has to be her!"
Shen Qian angrily pointed at Jiang Wan, "You jinx! You just came in and caused trouble!"
She ground her teeth in hatred for Ginger. If it weren't for Ginger, she wouldn't have been forced to marry into the family and be exiled!
Shen Qian's sudden outburst instantly captured the attention of everyone in the palace. The old matriarch clenched her cane tightly, her eyes narrowed with suspicion as she stared at Jiang Wan, a flicker of doubt in her gaze.
"Yes, it must be Ginger Wan this bad luck star who has harmed us."
"How glorious we once were! The moment she married in, our entire manor was on the verge of being raided!"
"I don't want to be exiled, sniffle..."
"...
"
Perhaps having found an outlet for their frustration, everyone looked at Jiang Wan's eyes filled with resentment. Jiang Wan coldly stared back at Shen Qian.
"If we have to say, it's really hard to tell who the unlucky star is since we entered together."
At such a crucial moment, instead of thinking about how to escape, he actually bit her. This woman is truly incredibly foolish.
"It's you!"
Shen Qian raised her voice, her eyes bloodshot, and even Song Jiuci, who had just spoken to the Forest Army Guard, glared at Jiang Wan with disgust.
Seeing that things were about to escalate, the old matriarch suddenly spoke up: “All of you, be quiet!”
The old madam had seen many things and understood that the emperor had made up his mind to deal with them. Now, no matter how much they struggled, it would be useless. òй.
Since this Ginger is the legitimate daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, her family might still offer some support when she is exiled. It's best not to offend her.
Besides, now the lives of everyone in their family probably still depend on Song Jiubian. Even if he dislikes this Jiang family, he is still his wife after all.
After being reprimanded, Shen Qian was extremely dissatisfied. However, at this moment, Song Jiuyuan, who had been summoned to the palace early, returned.
But he was carried back!
His lower half was a horrifying shade of red. Song Da, just recovering from her shock, fainted at the sight of her son's condition.
"Big brother!"
Song Jiuci hurried to greet him. His usually brave elder brother was now battered and near death, his face pale and unconscious.
This is the original male lead, also the villain in the book!
Jiang Wan hurriedly stepped forward, her delicate hand gently placed on Song Jiubian's pulse. She calmly called out, "Your Highness!"
Wow!
This emperor is too ruthless!
The original owner's memory still held the image of a living person this morning, but now they were beaten nearly to death. They were clearly losing more air than they were taking in. This was a life-or-death attack; they wouldn't die, but they would surely be left severely injured!
Seeing Song Jiu's appearance, the hopes that the women from various courtyards had held onto now vanished like smoke.
It's over, they're all done!
Song Jiubian strained to open his eyes and looked at the people in the courtyard, who were collapsing in despair. He too was overcome with grief.
It was his incompetence that failed to protect his family.
A man with a handsome and ethereal appearance, his look was vacant and broken, inexplicably making Jiang Wan feel that he was beautiful to the extreme.
"Sir!"
The Imperial Guards who had been searching the courtyard suddenly all came out, each with a pale face, shaking their heads at Deputy General Lu.
"The warehouse is empty!"
"The kitchen has nothing in it."
"The main office doesn't either!"
"...."
The Royal Forest Army was bewildered. When the Emperor summoned the Prince, he hadn't leaked any news beforehand.
They raced straight to the prince's mansion. Even if they were moving their assets, the speed shouldn't be this fast!
Didn't this family get anything
Deputy General Lv's face turned ashen with anger! He wanted to take advantage of the situation and fleece some wool!
When the people in the manor heard what the Imperial Forest Army said, they were all dumbfounded. The next second, they all looked at Song Jiubian.
Could it be that the Prince, with his divine intellect, had already hidden his wealth
Deputy General Lü also thought the same way, immediately looking at Song Jiubian, "My lord, oh no, you are not a prince anymore."
Song Jiubian, do you know that the crime of hiding wealth is punishable by one degree higher!
"I... no."
Song Jiubian had a bad feeling before going to the palace, but what he was hiding was private property outside. He wouldn't have a chance to hide anything inside the mansion.
He is completely baffled right now.
Lü's deputy general did not believe it and raised his sword, ready to point it at Song Jiuyuan, but Jiang Wan kicked the sword away with one foot.
"The Emperor has already punished him. It's not your turn to punish my husband!"
Song Jiu'yuan was the original owner's benefactor, so he should protect him to some extent as a way of expressing gratitude.
Song Ji-chul, reacting to this, tightly protected his older brother, his eyes glaring at Deputy General Lü like a wolf.
Lieutenant Lü was stared at until his hair stood on end. Just then, a guard suddenly burst into the room.
"Deputy General Lü, it's bad news! The Imperial Palace and the Sixth Prince's residence have been robbed. Your Majesty summons you."
"Keep an eye on them! All the assets in the palace will be confiscated now. They are not allowed to take anything away!"
Before leaving, General Lv issued a death order, so the wives who had originally been wearing jewelry were forced to take them off.
Jiang Wan touched the wooden hairpin on her head. Luckily, she had foresight and they couldn't even get to her.
She quietly let out a breath, inexplicably feeling a gaze fall on her. As she lowered her eyes, she met Song Jiubian's puzzled gaze.
Ginger was a little silent. In fact, she had quite a bit of medicinal powder and gold sore medicine in her spatial storage, but it wasn't appropriate to take them out in front of the Imperial Forest Army right now.tely felt a surge of anger, but he dared not confront the official head-on. He could only stutter and ask:"Sir, why have you tied up my wife"> And it should be tied to Xu Wei's side, so he finds it cr...
