At this time, on the second floor of a teahouse across the street from the jewelry shop, in a private room facing the street, Xia Luotong was leisurely sipping tea and watching the bustle of the jewelry shop opposite.
However, after she glanced at the housekeeper for a few times, she showed some doubts and said to Lin Dong beside her: "Those partners were arranged by Lin Sheng, right? Then where did this housekeeper come from?"
Lindong suddenly smiled after hearing this and said to Xia Luotong: "That was arranged by Aunt Sun. She learned that Li's jewelry shop was in trouble recently, so she rushed to get involved, but she didn't know We did this."
Xia Luotong raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Sun Jiaolan to be able to stretch her hands so long. It seemed that Master Sun had the support behind her, otherwise the housekeeper of the fourth-grade imperial wife would not be so easy to manipulate.
But when Mr. Sun took action, the nature was different. It seemed that the Xia family and the Li family were very lively.
Xia Luotong showed an interesting smile, his eyes fell on the housekeeper, and suddenly ordered Lindong beside him: "After the result of this matter comes out, reveal what Sun Jiaolan did to the Li family."
"With Li's temperament, if he knew about this, wouldn't he make Xia Mansion uneasy? It's really exciting!"
Lindong's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this: "Princess, do you mean to make Mrs. Li think that this whole thing was arranged by Aunt Sun?"
"That's right, with Li's current hatred towards Sun Jiaolan, he will definitely think so, and there will definitely be a commotion. After all, this jewelry shop is one of Li's most profitable industries. This time, such a toss-up will definitely make the business more difficult. I can’t go on anymore.” Xia Luotong said with a smile on his face.
As the master and servant were talking, the situation below changed again. No one knew who reported it to the official. Suddenly, a group of government servants came and took the shopkeeper away, along with the housekeeper and a group of partners. Individual travelers also followed the government officials to the government office.
This matter was brought to court, and there were many people watching the excitement, so word spread quickly.
Xia Luotong did not follow, but went directly back to the palace to wait for the news. Within a few days, the matter came to a conclusion.
As expected by Xia Luotong, the shopkeeper was pushed out by Mr. Li and took all the blame, saying that he was obsessed and had done such evil things without telling his boss.
In the end, the shopkeeper was imprisoned, and all his belongings were confiscated and compensated to the injured merchants and customers. In addition, Mr. Li was forced to pay a lot of money as subsidies, so that the matter was settled.
Although Li was fine in the end, she not only lost a large amount of money, but also got hooked up with one of the most profitable shops, which made her so angry that she fell ill on the spot.
Although the jewelry shop was preserved, but after such an incident, no customers were willing to come to the door. For several days, the shop was empty, and it seemed that it was close to closing. How could Mrs. Li not be angry about such a situation?
Xia Luotong felt really good after learning that Mrs. Li was sick from anger. She smiled and told Lindong, "You can tell Mrs. Li what Sun Jiaolan did."
Seeing Lindong agree, she added: "Also, has Sun Jiaolan made any moves in the past few days? Is she going to take action against Li?"
"Yes, according to reports from Xia Mansion's informants, it should be these days." Lindong nodded.
"I didn't expect Sun Jiaolan to be so anxious, but she couldn't wait any longer. It seems that she wanted to squeeze out the Li family and follow Xia Zhihe to attend the emperor's birthday banquet to show off her face." Although Xia Luotong had a smile on his face , but there is no warmth in the eyes.
Sun Jiaolan's methods are really ruthless. According to the information she received, the two maids who were married to each other, as well as the concubine who was later taken into the house, all three of them were given Juezi Decoction. It is impossible for them to be pregnant. .
Lindong was thinking about another thing. After hesitating for a moment, he finally reported: "Princess, according to reports from my subordinates, I'm afraid the Li family is going to attack the shopkeeper's family tonight, and the order is to leave no one alive."
After Xia Luotong heard this, his eyebrows suddenly twisted, and anger emerged in his eyes.
When it comes to cruelty, it seems that Sun Jiaolan is really not as good as Li. She really treats human life as trivial by silencing Li at every turn. Over the years, Li has no idea what she has done. How many lives have been contaminated.
At the beginning, Mrs. Li wanted to blame the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper was unwilling. As a result, Mrs. Li threatened the shopkeeper's family members, and then she forced the shopkeeper to submit.
In order to save the lives of the whole family, the shopkeeper had no choice but to admit the crime. Now that he had just been imprisoned, Mrs. Li decided to kill his whole family. Just because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed. Only the dead would not speak. He was really cruel. Extremely.
"Let's look at the opportunity to rescue that family. In addition, go to the mass graves to find some similar corpses to replace them. Don't let Li's people find out that the family has escaped." Xia Luotong gave the order after thinking.
Lindong was ordered to retreat. That night, a house in the city caught fire, lighting up half of the sky in the middle of the night.
The fire was so fierce that the neighbors had no time to save people. After everyone worked together to put out the fire, they sadly discovered that all the family members, young and old, were killed in the flames, and no one survived.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Li had her breakfast while listening to the report from her personal maid.
At the end, she smiled with satisfaction, and there was a bit of venomous coldness in her eyes: "The bodies of that family must be confirmed, and there must be no omissions! I want them all to go to the underworld to reunite!"
Looking at Mrs. Li's appearance, Mammy felt chills in her heart, and she replied with some numbness: "Madam, don't worry, everything has been counted. Although they are burned beyond recognition, the people below have carefully compared the number of people, and they are all there." There is nothing missing."
Grandma felt that she was not a kind-hearted person, but when compared with Mrs. Li, she found that she was not ruthless enough, and that her wife, Mrs. Li, was the real cruel person!
She had helped Li handle many shady matters, but now she felt more and more that Li didn't take human life seriously.
Could it be that because there was so much blood on my hands, I no longer felt anything...?
Grandma didn't know, but she knew that she had to get things done, otherwise she would be the one who lost her life!
After hearing Mammy's reply, Mrs. Li nodded with satisfaction. In her opinion, nothing is more reliable than the dead.
She asked the shopkeeper to take the blame and go to jail, but this was still not safe enough. If the shopkeeper's family knew that this shoddy thing was actually what she ordered the shopkeeper to do, and then later exposed her, wouldn't that still be a hidden danger?
So on the one hand, she agreed to the shopkeeper and asked him to take the blame, but then she decided to eradicate it!
Although a hidden danger was solved, Li's mood did not improve at all, because the jewelry shop was abandoned after all!
