252 Why? Did the Pei Family Excavate the Gao Family’s Grave?
“What do you want to do?!” Lu Ze looked away and hid his eagerness. He paused for a moment before reaching out to take the teacup from Lin Suisui’s hand and place it on a small table at the side. Then, he turned to look at Lin Suisui and continued, “Anything is fine.”
“I’m not telling you!” Lin Suisui turned around and covered her mouth with a smile. She didn’t intend to answer Lu Ze.
Lu Ze didn’t rush her anymore. Su Le, who was outside, happened to come over. He stood outside the car window and reported, “Madam, the consort has already boarded the carriage. Are we going over now?!”
“Let’s go!” Lu Ze nodded and raised his hand to knock on the window to instruct them to set off.
Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s residence wasn’t far from the general’s residence, so the commotion in Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s residence had naturally spread to the general’s residence.
Pei Zhaoyue never expected that the wretched girl she looked down on would be so unreasonable!
She blew up the door of Duke Huai Yang’s mansion in public…
Didn’t she ever feel any fear?!
However, Pei Zhaoyue didn’t have the time to think too much about it, because another girl immediately rushed in and kowtowed to her. She reported in a panic, “Madam, there’s bad news. That group of people came out of Duke Huai Yang’s mansion and they are heading towards our residence! Madam, what should we do?!”
“Why are you panicking?!” Pei Zhaoyue was already at a loss, so when she heard this little girl’s report, she turned around and kicked the little girl to the ground as she said angrily, “How can I be afraid of someone like her?!”
When Lin Suisui and the others arrived at the entrance of the general’s residence, they didn’t see anyone. Instead, they saw the main door open and guards and servants standing on both sides.
“Huh?” When Lin Suisui lifted the curtain, she was surprised by the situation outside. “Has she changed her mind or something?!”
“The person who changed his mind probably isn’t Pei Zhaoyue, but the smarter Gao Xuwei!” Lu Ze wasn’t surprised by the current situation. “His life is still in your hands. Why would he want to make you unhappy at this time?!
Moreover, Pei Zhaoyue already saw Pei Qian’s attitude! Therefore, Pei Zhaoyue was no different from a tigress whose claws had been pulled out. No matter how she huffed and puffed, he wouldn’t be afraid at all!”
As if to confirm Lu Ze’s words, when the carriage drove into the general’s residence unimpeded, after they alighted and walked into the main hall, before they even entered, they heard Pei Zhaoyue’s hysterical screams.
“Gao Xuwei, you bastard!”
When Lin Suisui entered, she saw Pei Zhaoyue, who was beating Gao Xuwei like a crazy woman. At this moment, she no longer cared about her image. She was like a shrew!
“You actually dare to come over?!” Upon seeing Lin Suisui enter, Pei Zhaoyue couldn’t be bothered to torture Gao Xuwei anymore. She turned around and rushed over. If Su Le had not taken a step forward to stop her, Pei Zhaoyue would have bumped into Lin Suisui.
“Why wouldn’t I dare to come over?! Pei Zhaoyue, you’re trying to kill me, so why can’t I come and find trouble with you?!” Lin Suisui turned to look at Bai Guo. With Su Le’s cooperation, Bai Guo took a few steps forward and stuffed a brown pill into Pei Zhaoyue’s mouth. After she swallowed it and couldn’t spit it out anymore, Bai Guo took a few steps back to Lin Suisui’s side.
“What did you feed me?!” Pei Zhaoyue held her throat and coughed violently as she tried to spit out the pill she had just swallowed. However, it was useless. She could only turn around and glare at Lin Suisui with hatred. “Aren’t you worried that my brother in the capital will cause trouble for you?!”
“Pei Zhaoyue, you’re really too big for your britches! To put it bluntly, if your brother really cared about you, would he let you live alone in the north for so many years?!”
Lin Suisui glanced at Pei Zhaoyue in disdain, completely indifferent to her threat. “Don’t worry, this medicine won’t kill you for the time being!
Haven’t you ever wondered why the general acts like a mouse seeing a cat whenever he sees me?!
I can tell you now that you’ll be able to experience it soon!”
“You poisoned me?! You actually dared to poison me?!” Lin Suisui’s words terrified Pei Zhaoyue and her face turned pale. As she roared at Lin Suisui, she reached out to scratch her throat while trying in vain to spit out the poison she had swallowed.
After realizing that everything was in vain, Pei Zhaoyue finally fell to the ground and cried in despair.
“General Gao, this time, your wife threatened Duke Huai Yang’s mother and forced her to hand over the soldiers of Duke Huai Yang’s ministry. Then, under the ruse of admiring the flowers, she invited me to the plum garden, but she set up an ambush on the way and used gunpowder to blow up the mountain rocks in the valley. At that time, more than ten people who were traveling along the way lost their lives, and twenty to thirty people were injured to varying degrees!
I don’t think I need to say more about the consequences of her actions, right?!
Moreover, if that was all, they could blame the incident on the conflict between the women. However, after knowing that those evil soldiers had been captured by my husband, they wanted to kill them on the way back to the city!
“General, do I need to remind you what kind of crime intercepting and killing an official of the Imperial Court is?!”
Lin Suisui couldn’t be bothered with Pei Zhaoyue, who was crying on the ground. Instead, she looked at Gao Xuwei, who was standing at the side with a disheveled look. “General Gao, are you tired of living a luxurious life, so you want to rebel?!”
“No, I don’t!” How could Gao Xuwei admit to such accusations?!
He denied it without thinking, “I really knew nothing about this from the beginning to the end! It’s all this woman’s idea!
It’s all her fault!
Madam Liu, you can’t falsely accuse an innocent person! I’ve been in the general’s courtyard these past few days and haven’t left even once!
Besides, I’m not familiar with Duke Huai Yang’s ministry. How can I mobilize the soldiers from Duke Huai Yang’s ministry?!
“It’s all her fault. It’s all Pei Zhaoyue’s fault! She wanted to rebel. Even if you want to punish someone, you should punish her and the Pei family!”
“Uncle, you’re really slick with your excuses!” Before Lin Suisui could speak, a chuckle came from the door behind her. Pei Qian came in dressed in military attire and stared at Gao Xuwei, whose face instantly turned pale. “Did the Pei family dig up the Gao family’s ancestral grave? Why do you want to harm us so badly?!”
