The wooden stick stopped steadily in front of the old Marquis's eyes, and the top was still faintly trembling.
The old Marquis opened his eyes wide, and along the straight lines of the stick, he saw Xiao Lingyue holding the stick at the other end. Her face was condensed, her eyes were dark and sharp, and a strong murderous aura rushed towards her face.
"..." The old Marquis felt his scalp numb, as if a sword was pressed against his throat, and he was so stiff that he didn't dare to move subconsciously.
Only then did he realize that he was not the only one who wanted to kill "Shen Wan."
This rebellious woman with a cruel heart actually... also wanted to kill his own grandfather!
There is no reason for this.
What a beast! What an unethical beast!
The old Marquis's face turned purple and black with anger, and his veins bulged.
Aunt Hua's screams were stuck in her throat, and the ferocious guards were too stiff to move.
If you move again, I'm afraid that the third lady's wooden stick will poke into the old Marquis's eye socket.
It was eerily silent in the front hall.
At the door of the mansion not far from the front hall, the sound of communication sounded again.
"The imperial edict arrives——"
A series of dense footsteps came from the door, and someone shouted: "The Nanyang Marquis Mansion has received the order!"
People in the hall heard the noise, but no one dared to move.
The old marquis froze in front of the wooden stick, staring at Xiao Lingyue, fearing that if her hand shook, the wooden stick would poke into his eye socket.
"You are lucky, the imperial edict came in time, otherwise I am afraid you will walk out of this door with your life." Xiao Lingyue said coldly, slowly putting down the wooden stick in his hand.
The old Marquis gasped for air, and then became furious: "Shen Wan, how dare you!"
Xiao Lingyue said: "There is nothing to be afraid of. I won't kill you, but I just don't want to dirty my hands. What's more, the retribution of the Shen family has already come, so just watch it carefully."
Just for a moment, she really wanted to kill this old guy.
But then I thought, it would be too easy for him to let him die like this.
What the old Marquis values most is the status and power of the Shen family. Let him live well and watch the Shen family collapse with his own eyes and never have the chance to regain its glory. This is the cruelest torture for him.
The sound of communication outside the hall came one after another.
Seeing that the old Marquis was still standing there staring at "Shen Wan", Shen Zhijiang gritted his teeth and said: "Father, His Majesty's decree is most important, let's get out quickly!"
Aunt Hua also reacted at this moment: "Why did an imperial edict suddenly come to the house?"
She knew nothing about the Xiangguo Temple, and she didn't know where she had made the wrong mistake. She suddenly became excited: "Is it a decree to grant marriage? Your Majesty has arranged marriage for Yu Ting and His Highness Prince Xiang?"
Shen Zhijiang: "..."
Old Marquis: "..."
His cheek twitched spasmodically, and he glared at Aunt Hua fiercely.
Aunt Hua was so frightened that she didn't know why.
"Go out and receive the order!" the old Marquis said through gritted teeth. He stopped looking at Xiao Lingyue and asked his servants to help him out.
Shen Zhijiang also hurriedly asked someone to lift him.
"Let's go out quickly, maybe it's really good news about Yu Ting's marriage!" Aunt Hua was inexplicably excited, her cheeks flushed, and she hurried out with the help of the maid.
The other guards did not dare to stay in the front hall and followed him out in a swarm.
In the end, only Xiao Lingyue and Beibei were left. Popular "" This chapter has been completed!
