made everyone feel a little uneasy.What did he mean by suddenly laughing after speaking his own words"I see.""Looks like you guys aren't really what I'd call shady merchants after all."The magistrate...Zong Pingchuan walked out of the palace, exhausted. What greeted him at home wasn't a steaming, delicious meal, but Yuan Xiangli, disheveled and with blazing eyes, charging toward him.

"Master! You, you must do justice for Taiwu!"

"My poor Wu'er, if I ever find that heartless wretch, I'll tear her to shreds!"

Yuan Xiangli when she got angry was a terrifying sight, completely different from her usual gentle, kind and elegant demeanor.

Zong Pingchuan frowned and retreated two steps, obviously unable to adapt to his wife's madness. However, reason made him speak first, asking about their youngest son's condition, forcing himself to swallow the rebuke he intended for Yuan Xiangli.

"What happened to Taiwu"

"What on earth is going on Just tell me."

Yuan Xiangli returned from the Prime Minister's residence, and when she saw her youngest son's appearance, she was furious and heartbroken.

She really wanted to explain everything thoroughly to Zong Pingchuan, but her ability to speak seemed to have malfunctioned for a moment. What came out of her mouth was still incoherent.

Zong Pingchuan had no choice but to call over the few attendants who served Zong Taiwu.

"What's wrong with the second young master"

"Now, you speak."

Several servants were beaten until they were bruised all over. Their attacker, naturally, was Yuan Xiangli.

When she got home and saw that her son was so badly injured, while these servants were completely unaware and clueless when questioned, they deserved more than just a beating, they should be killed!

Considering that the culprit who harmed Taiwu hasn't been found yet, a few attendants have temporarily spared his life.

"Reporting to the master, the second young master brought a young lady back this afternoon to drink."

Within just an hour's time, the young lady had left.

Later, the madam came to find the second young master. When she pushed open the door, she discovered the second young master lying on the ground unconscious, with blood seeping from his lower body. She immediately called for a doctor.

"The doctor said, Second Master he, he..."

The maid is too scared to speak now, trembling on the ground.

Yuan Xiang angrily charged up and slapped them several times, completely losing any semblance of a dignified official's wife or the daughter of a high-ranking minister.

She's just like a street woman who fights with other women on the streets.

"Enough!"

Zhongping pulled her back, his face grim. With so many servants watching, couldn't she pay attention to her decorum

"Doctor, what's wrong with the second young master Tell me quickly!"

After all, he was his own son. Zong Pingchuan's voice became a little anxious.

"The second young master... he, will never be a human being again."

After saying this, the few attendants nearly completely prostrated themselves on the ground. They likely knew in their hearts that their lives could end at any moment, and their faces were ashen with fear.

Zongping stumbled, his face a mix of shock and anger.

But he was much calmer than Yuan Xiangli. When trouble arose, what good was it to just vent anger and kill people

The top priority is to catch the person who hurt Tai Wu!

"What kind of woman did Tai Wu bring back"

Among you, who can find out the details of this woman Your death sentence will be commuted.

"If you can find the person and bring him to me, I will overlook his transgression this time."

Several servants, upon hearing this, eagerly scrambled to divulge whatever information they knew.

"Master, I understand! The woman is a widow with two children."

"Even the young one knows, Master, that she just arrived in Beijing recently."

"The second young master brought the person back from Baibao Building."

When Yuan Xiangli heard the word "widow," he was jolted, and immediately turned to look at Mama Wang.

Wang's mother collapsed to her knees with a thud, her face as white as paper.

"My lady, that widow is indeed rather sinister. The people I sent have not only been dealt with by her but also directly sent to the authorities."

"The old servant originally wanted to find some more people to capture her when she was alone, but I heard that her whole family had actually moved away."

The widow no longer lived in that house.

Wang's mother thought she might have scared the person away by making too much noise, causing them to move out in the middle of the night. She felt ashamed that she couldn't even handle such a small matter properly, so she didn't want to tell Yuan Xiangli about it. She wanted to wait for another opportunity to take action and then tell Yuan Xiangli once everything was settled.

Who knew the second young master was so anxious, he actually brought the person home early.

Zong Pingchuan was listening in the clouds and fog, what widow How did Mama Wang know so much about that widow

"So, you all already know about Tai Wu and the widow"

He now didn't know which one he should be angry about.went to several villages today and found traces of people from Wumeng.""Huh The traps on the mountain couldn't stop them They found us this quickly""No.""According to villagers, they heard screams com...
