The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

The Xu family!

Xu Xia paced back and forth, looking anxious.

Even Yun Wanyi, who pushed open the door, didn't notice.

"Husband, what's wrong?"

It wasn't until Yun Wanyi asked in surprise that Xu Xia realized what was happening, his face full of bitterness.

He sighed and said, "Just now, Lord Su Jin of the Demon Suppression Division sent someone to deliver a message, ordering me to oversee the execution of Zhou Zhi and Xu Qin in three days..."

As he spoke, Xu Xia recounted the outrageous behavior of the two men to Yun Wanyi, leaving Yun Wanyi speechless with astonishment.

"These two are that brave?"

"Absolutely! It's outrageous!" Xu Xia said with distress. "But the most crucial thing is that these two's actions might make the Duke doubt my abilities."

"Huai'an City is in such a mess."

"How can the Duke entrust Huai'an City to my management?"

"Even more trouble would be if it involved our Xu family and your Yun family as well."

Yun Wanyi immediately sensed Xu Xia's worry, reached out and took his hand, saying, "Husband, there's no need to worry too much."

"The chaos in Huai'an City originated from Yunjing and has not been a recent phenomenon. Neither you nor I had the right to interfere in the important affairs of Huai'an City before."

"Besides, both of us have maintained a clear mind."

"The Duke is not an unreasonable person and will certainly not blame us. However, since the Duke has given an order to publicly try Zhou Zhi and Xu Qin in three days, his intention is clear."

"The intention is to inform the people of Huai'an City that Huai'an City is about to be transformed from the old into the new. As long as you and I can do this matter thoroughly, it will be difficult for Zhou Zhi and Xu Qin to recant their confessions, and it will become an ironclad case."

"Give Huai'an City a thunderous roar."

"Lord Duke, you will surely see our abilities."

Xu Xia had thought the same way before, but he had long been suppressed by his elder brother Xu Shang and had a low status. Before facing a major event, he was bound to panic.

Comforted by Yun Wanyi, he felt much calmer and said, "Wanyi, you're right."

"As long as this matter can be settled, the Duke will certainly not blame me."

"Moreover..." Yun Wanyi said with a smile, "Our Huai'an City is not even deep in the heart of Yun Jing, yet it is already in such chaos. The Duke must have made preparations for the chaos in Yun Jing."

"For the Duke, taking Yunjing is difficult, but cleaning up the atmosphere in Yunjing is even more difficult."

"If you and I can handle this matter perfectly, we might be able to gain the Duke's favor in the future."

Xu Xia was immediately energized.

Yes!

Although he had never been to Yunjing, he had heard a lot about its state. After the Duke took it over, he couldn't possibly kill everyone, could he?

It needs to be addressed!

The Demon Suppression Division is a good sword; it can definitely clean up this mess!

With his confidence boosted, Xu Xia was full of energy and immediately discussed and studied the matter with Yun Wanyi.

Soon, notices were issued from within the city lord's mansion.

……

"The new Duke is going to punish Zhou Zhi! Everyone come and see!"

"Xu Qin will also be interrogated in three days? She's treated like royalty in my shop, and I still have to pay her a salary. I'll definitely be there early in three days; I want to be in the front row."

"Really? The Red Phoenix Pavilion is going to be burned down? This Red Phoenix Pavilion, which has caused so much harm, is really going to be burned down?"

……

As soon as the notice was posted in front of the city wall, countless people gathered around. After the scholar read it out one by one, everyone was incredulous.

The prevailing atmosphere in Huai'an has been established for a long time.

Deeply rooted for over a decade, countless people have suffered under its influence. Now, the Duke has arrived to try Zhou Zhi, who is in charge of criminal matters in the city, and Xu Qin, the member of the Love Mutual Aid Alliance.

More importantly, the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion must be burned down.

It's unbelievable.

Immediately, he was overjoyed!

"The rumors were true! With the Duke here, justice has finally been served!"

"The notice asked us to provide clues. I have evidence that Zhou Zhi has ruined our livelihood, and I'm going to sue him."

"I'm going too!"

"Let's go together!"

……

This news was like a thunderclap from a clear sky for the entire city of Huai'an, and it spread throughout the city in a very short time.

Almost everyone knows about this.

Even outside the city walls, crowds of people waiting to read the notice lingered for a long time.

However, upon hearing this news, some were happy while others were sad!

Among the members of the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance, the most prestigious young master Qi has fallen into a state of utter collapse.

His family runs a bookseller business, and this wave of attacks will directly cut off their source of income.

Of course, that's not the most important thing...

Most importantly...

They actually want to burn down the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion?!

That's the Red Phoenix Pavilion, the spiritual anchor of their Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance, their god, their everything!

How could you burn it!

"No, absolutely not!"

"Absolutely not!"

"I must stop them with my brothers and sisters!"

Young Master Qi thought this way and made this plan.

At the same time, the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance and many people who believe in the supremacy of love also thought and planned in the same way!

Almost simultaneously, these people arrived at Wangchun Tower.

However, this event was larger in scale and had more people than the last time Xu Qin hosted a dinner party, with over a hundred people.

The restaurant was packed with people, filling even the largest private room at Wangchunlou. The owner of Wangchunlou once again showed a look of despair.

—I really don't know if the Duke is determined to eradicate these cancers this time. If he is, he might actually dare to kick people out on the spot!

"Brothers and sisters, the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion has reached a critical moment of life and death. At this time, we all have a responsibility."

"We absolutely will not allow the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion to be burned down like this!"

"Absolutely not!"

Young Master Qi, with the highest prestige, was now the organizer and leader. Standing on high, he gave a shout, and a large crowd gathered below.

"Yes, protect our Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion."

"Xu Qin is our brother or sister. She was just pursuing love. What's wrong with that? We should protect Xu Qin."

"Lord Zhou Zhi is a truly good official who cares about the people. We absolutely cannot let the newcomer Ren Tianye harm him. We must protect Lord Zhou Zhi!"

……

The members of the Love Mutual Aid Alliance instantly reached a consensus, and their emotions were extremely high.

Young Master Qi immediately added, "The newly arrived Duke doesn't understand the beauty of love, nor does he know that our true feelings are entrusted to the clouds."

"I think he's a person who's born heartless and loveless."

"We have to teach this guy a lesson he's got power!"

"Brothers and sisters, what do you think?"

Undoubtedly, there was another chorus of agreement.

Then, the group quickly organized their strategies and came up with several plans within half an hour.

Each one of these methods has been verified by them long ago and is extremely effective.

The first rule is to write letters!

Let's call on everyone to write a letter together!

Moreover, the format must be consistent!

Faith must be as vast as mountains and as deep as the sea!
