The abandoned wife of the noble family, she is Black Heart Lotus

But before Xu could even touch Gu Deyin, the female jailer behind her grabbed the chain and dragged her back, leaving her unable to do anything but roar.

"If she scolds her again, put a piece of smelly cloth in her mouth and block her mouth."

Hearing Princess Yuanjia's cold voice, Mrs. Xu restrained herself from yelling, but she still glared at Gu Deyin viciously.

"You will have your comeuppance."

Hearing these curse words, Gu Deyin smiled slightly.

retribution?

For someone like her who came back from hell, what retribution should she fear?

"Mother-in-law, even if I get retribution, you probably won't be able to see it."

Mrs. Xu added gloomily, "The worst thing I did was marry you."

"Me too. What I regret most is that I entered the wolf den of your Xu family."

Gu Deyin immediately retorted, telling Mrs. Xu not to use her mother-in-law's name to suppress her again.

Seeing Zhong Shiming coming over and making a gesture, she had someone put a rag into Mrs. Xu's mouth.

Xu screamed in resistance, but was slapped on the face by the female jailer, so she wisely closed her mouth.

After a while, the sound of interrogation came from the cell next door.

At first, she didn't take it seriously, but after the person being interrogated spoke, she immediately glanced at the cell next door in shock.

Mu family.

That was actually her voice. Why was she in prison too?

She began to feel uneasy in her heart. Now her biggest reliance was that the Mu family was not exposed. If she succeeded in overturning the capital, she would be able to stand up.

However, if Mu is also exposed and confesses, then everything will be over.

As Mu's voice became louder, her expression became more and more dejected.

I heard Mu in the interrogation room next door unable to bear the torture and said, "I'll do it, I'll do anything."

The sound of the bell rang.

"Mu, did you bribe the bandits to murder Gu Jianghuai?"

Mu said in a weak voice, "Yes, we are preparing to ambush him on his way back from his business trip. As long as he dies, the Gu family's wealth will be ours..."

Zhong Shiming suddenly interrupted, "You don't just want to make money, do you?"

Mu stopped talking again.

Zhong Shiming ordered the torture to continue, followed by Mu's screams of pain.

Xu's body couldn't help but tremble, and she even wet her pants out of fear. After all, she had experienced the taste of torture and knew how painful it was.

Gu Deyin looked at her embarrassment without any emotion on her face. For people like Xu, the last thing she needed was sympathy.

Mrs. Xu listened carefully to Mr. Mu's continued confession.

"Stop fighting, I'll do it, I'll do it all."

"Then tell me, what are your intentions in gaining the Gu family's wealth?"

"To King Yu of Jiangnan."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu instantly collapsed on the ground as if her energy had been drained from her body.

Mu is crazy, how can he tell such secret things?

Zhong Shiming continued to interrogate, "Oh, what is the purpose of giving so much money to King Yu?"

"Assist King Yu to clear your side."

Mu seemed to be frightened and answered every question.

"You are treason!"

Zhong Shiming immediately shouted loudly.

Mu argued, "The surname of Xiao is still the same in this world. It's just that the person in charge has changed. One day King Yu will come to Beijing to serve as king. If you know the truth, you will naturally be promoted and make a fortune..."

"No matter how nice your words are, rebellion is rebellion. This is a serious crime against the nine tribes." Mu seemed to be frightened and fell silent.

"I want to ask you, how many people from the Xu family are involved in this matter?"

Mr. Mu replied, "Dafang and his wife..."

"What about the second bedroom? They weren't involved?"

Mu said, "No..."

Hearing this, the Xu family almost collapsed. The Mu family wanted to kill everyone in the Xu family.

She struggled to go to the interrogation room next door to settle the score with Mu.

This plan was originally proposed by their third-bedroom couple.

Because Xiao Mingzhang was quite unfriendly to the old nobles, the couple had empty titles but no real power. No matter how they fawned over them, they could not get a chance to rise.

Only then did they want to cross Chencang secretly and help King Yu succeed. In this way, they would have the merit of following the dragon, and they would naturally be able to turn around in the future.

Based on this, the couple got involved and decided to take care of their family's wealth.

This matter was carried out very secretly, and now that Mu has exposed it, everything is over.

She wanted to rush over and kill Mu.

Gu Deyin and Princess Yuanjia looked at each other, but they didn't expect that their bet was right. After all, Xu's fierce reaction said everything.

Princess Yuanjia was very excited. She actually solved a rebellion one day. Now she could exhale and raise her eyebrows in front of her brother. Who said women are useless?

Gu Deyin suddenly realized that the truth of the matter was actually like this, and she was not wrong.

But the Xu family didn't know that the King Yu they supported was a fool.

In her previous life, with her Gu family's immense wealth, she didn't see King Yu do any big things. Xiao Mingzhang still had the final say in this capital.

So it can be seen how poor the vision of people like the Xu family is. They don't look for anyone, but they choose an idle prince whose fiefdom is in a wealthy land. He has a thief's heart but not the courage.

At this time, she secretly complained in her heart.

After the interrogation over there was over, she stood up and walked to Mrs. Xu who was unable to struggle.

She stared into her eyes and said.

"Three aunts have already been recruited, why not the mother-in-law? I heard from the princess that she will leave a queen in the third aunt's room. It seems that the mother-in-law wants to cut off the incest, or that the adulterous child really shouldn't exist. , It’s just a pity for the two children of the third uncle’s family..."

Each of her sighs struck Xu's heart like a heavy hammer.

Whether it was Zhu Geer or Xu Ning's children, she felt heartbroken.

Seeing Gu Deyin turning to leave, she hurriedly reached out and pulled her sleeve.

When she turned around, she asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

Gu Deyin snorted lightly, "You don't have to believe it."

Seeing this, Xu knew that she was now at a disadvantage, but Gu Deyin's words gave her a glimmer of hope.

At this time, she said sternly, "I know you want my confession, but Gu Deyin, you have to promise me that you will protect my Dafang's bloodline when the time comes."

Before Gu Deyin could speak, Princess Yuanjia suddenly interrupted.

"I can promise you."

Mrs. Xu glared at the little princess fiercely, "I want you to swear."

As soon as Gu Deyin heard this, he immediately went over and picked up the little princess.

"Let's go. I'm not used to her problems. Over there, the Mu family has confessed. She likes to talk about it, but it's her children and grandchildren who died anyway. She doesn't feel bad, and I don't feel bad either..."

She said as she walked out, and then secretly winked at the little princess.

The little princess said knowingly, "It doesn't matter if I think this is the case. Anyway, I have long disliked the Xu family, so I just took them all in one go."

These words struck a chord with Xu. Seeing that these two people were really about to leave, she hurriedly shouted.

"I recruit, I recruit everything."
