For Zhou Ying, it doesn't matter whether Zhao An is loyal or traitorous. What's important is to use this opportunity to suppress the reputation of the Cui family. After all, this is Tianshui Courtyard. Aren't the Cui family on good terms with Xu Ruqing?
This time, let’s see how the Cui family responds!
Not surprisingly, everyone's eyes fell on Cui Shixiang, and he said sarcastically: "Miss Xu said, who she is with is her own business, why are you making fun of her?"
"Sluts and whores will naturally be criticized by thousands of people, and we are not wrong either."
"We feel sorry for Miss Xu's self-destruction. It's all for her own good."
"In my opinion, it is better for her to kill herself. If it were me, she would have drowned herself in the river long ago. How could she have the dignity to live in this world."
One after another, dark voices were pressing towards Xu Ruqing like a roaring mountain and a tsunami. Her eyes became blurred and her head became dizzy.
"Go to hell, you bitch, don't tarnish the reputation of the Northern Saint Sect."
"I usually pretend to be innocent and aloof, but it turned out that I was having such a good time."
"The eunuch doesn't have that thing. What is she trying to do? She might as well come to me."
"Miss Xu, I have a tael of silver, can you sleep with me tonight?"
"This despicable child should be sent to the military camp to become a military prostitute!"
The curses became increasingly vicious.
Xu Ruqing burst into tears, her vision was blurred, and her body was trembling with cold, like a fallen leaf in the vast sea, ready to be overturned at any time.
At a certain moment, she suddenly grabbed the sword and smiled sadly, "Sir, this is all I can do. Please take care of yourself."
After saying that, the sword edge crossed Xue's neck.
"Miss, no!"
"Miss Xu!"
A series of exclamations were heard, and the next second screams broke out, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. Then Xu Ruqing found that the sword edge could not fall, and grabbed the sword edge with one hand, and hot liquid splashed down her skin. Hot and fiery.
"What a fool."
The gentle voice rang through her ears. Xu Ruqing subconsciously opened her eyes and saw Zhao An arriving at some unknown time.
She was stunned for a moment, then cried, laughed, and looked silly.
Zhao An ignored his cut palm and forcefully took the sword. His gloomy eyes swept over the frightened crowd, and he grinned ferociously, "I, Zhao An, am the evil thief of the eunuchs you call me. I killed Mrs. Chen, Come, come and kill me and eliminate thieves for the country!"
As soon as the sentence fell to the ground, the whole place was dead silent.
Several headless corpses were lying on the ground, blood was flowing everywhere, and the smell of blood filled the hall.
Qiao Yan stood aside holding the bleeding knife with a gloomy expression, "How dare you insult my family, you are a bunch of people who don't know how to live or die!"
The ones who were killed were the ones who yelled the most fiercely just now.
Zhao An didn't care who they were or what their status was. If they insulted Xu Ruqing, they would just die.
"I am the one who killed the person, and I bear the infamy. Anyone who wants to impeach or assassinate them comes to me."
Zhao An shook off his robe, sat down at the table, and held a broken sword in one hand, blood flowing along the edge of the sword.
Zhou Ying's body was stiff, covering her red lips and not daring to breathe, while Zhou Qing held the knife tightly and was ready to move.
Zhao An looked sideways, as if examining an animal, "Who are the Zhou family? Who are you? How dare you talk about my woman?"
Zhou Qing's eyes were about to burst, and he suddenly raised his sword and pointed it at him, "Eunuch, evil thief, dog thief! You have insulted my holy sect!"
"Holy Gate? If I don't want to, the Holy Gate will fall into dust."
"It's up to you!"
"It's up to me." Zhao An smiled coldly and looked at Zhou Ying, "Miss Zhou, I thought you were a trouble-free person, which is really disappointing."
The tone of this voice seemed familiar.
Could it be!
Zhou Ying's pupils shrank, full of fear, "You, you are..."
"Humph, isn't printing useful?" Zhao An asked sarcastically.
With just one sentence, Zhou Ying was instantly drained of all her strength, and collapsed to the ground in shock, speechless.
"Kneel down and apologize to my little Qinger, otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences."
Zhao An's cold eyes swept away his anger and authority.
Zhou Ying shuddered and opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
Everyone stared blankly at this strange scene, not knowing what was happening.
Finally, Zhou Ying gritted her teeth and stood up, walked to the hall, bent her knees, and actually knelt down with a thud.
The whole audience gasped.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Miss Xu, my sister realizes her mistake."
Zhou Ying prostrated on the ground with her hands and kowtowed politely, no longer as arrogant and domineering as before.
She finally knew that something was going to happen. The Zhao An in front of her was Zhou Huang, who controlled the lifeblood of her Cui family. How could she resist?
Xu Ruqing ignored her and looked at her man with a pair of beautiful eyes as if no one else was around. Suddenly, she was not afraid of anything. It didn't matter no matter how many grievances she suffered, she knew that Zhao An would not let her down.
"Sister, what are you doing!"
Zhou Qing realized it later and rushed forward to pull up Zhou Ying who was kneeling on the ground. The next second, he was kicked in the back by Qiao Yan and hit the ground with a thud. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and his sword flew away from his hand. Go out, and just as he was about to get up, a broken sword suddenly pierced his palm with a bang, and nailed his hand to the floor!
Zhou Qing suddenly screamed and blood flowed all over the ground.
Zhao An stepped on the hilt of the sword and looked down at his twisted face, "Isn't it too much to ask for some interest from me?"
"Zhao An, I'll kill you!"
Zhou Qing went crazy, but his palm was penetrated and he couldn't get up at all. He could only twitch and struggle, cursing wildly.
"What a noisy bitch."
Zhao An stretched out his hand, and Jiuyin picked up the sword that Zhou Qing had dropped without hesitation and handed it over.
Whoosh, the sword light pierced Zhou Qing's other hand again and nailed it into the floor.
"Ahhhh——"
The screams were like slaughtering pigs, one wave after another.
The young students and ladies present were all frightened to death.
Zhao An stepped on Zhou Qing's back and walked into the hall, and said indifferently: "Didn't you say that this governor is Huo Guo's eunuch? Then I will prove it to you."
Wow!
The officers and soldiers from Jingzhao Prefecture arrived at unknown time and surrounded the entire literary society.
Chen Qun walked in quickly. His scalp was numb as he looked at the corpses on the ground. He knelt down and said, "Mr. Factory Supervisor, I am late for my post. I hope you can atone for your sins."
"Except for the two members of the Zhou family, please invite everyone present back to the prison. I suspect that they are colluding with the traitors, criticizing me, and endangering the imperial power."
"Here!"
Chen Qun was determined to fool around with Zhao An. With a wave of his hand, a large number of Jingzhao Mansion officers and soldiers burst into the hall and took people without any explanation.
Cries and curses resounded throughout Tianshuiyuan.
Zhao An watched all this indifferently, "I have become a thief who brought disaster to the country according to your wishes. You should enjoy it."
"Zhao An, you must die a happy death!"
"The traitor harmed me!"
"My father is the Minister of Industry, you can't do this to me!"
"My uncle is a member of the civil service! Let me go!"
"I have money, I'll give you money!"
Wails came and went, but it was useless no matter how much I shouted.
