231 The Heavens Are About to Change

Zhao Yingying’s heart thumped, and she had an ominous premonition.

“Young Madam, the yamen has sent someone as well.” Everyone in Jing City said that General Zhao’s new wife knew sorcery and could steal people’s luck. Otherwise, why would Zhao Ruifeng’s bad luck change all of a sudden after so many years? He even put the blame of Fang Yu climbing out of the coffin on Jiang Xi, directly confirming that Jiang Xi knew dark arts and could take other people’s lives to change Zhao Ruifeng’s fate.

Jiang Xi was silent. She had been feeling uneasy for the past few days, afraid that Zhao Ruifeng had made a mistake on the battlefield. Now that the matter had come to light and she was the one to blame, she felt at ease.

“Quickly go to the Xue family and ask my maternal grandfather for help.” Zhao Yingying pulled Hong Shan, her face pale, and asked her to go to the Xue family for help. Her mother had been dead for so many years, but Zhao Yingying had never gone to her maternal family for help. She had learned a lot from her mother’s character. In her previous life, she had lived so miserably that she had never had any contact with her maternal family. However, in this life, she had made a different decision. Nothing must happen to her sister-in-law. If anything happened to her, everything would go back on track to her previous life.

Zhao Yingying was so flustered that she had probably forgotten about Jiang Xi’s ability to turn bad luck into good luck.

In the front hall, Xiao Meili was sitting in the main seat with a sullen face, and the officials were sitting below her.

Xiao Meili’s eyes flickered when she saw Jiang Xi enter. “This is my daughter-in-law. Her maiden home is far away, so we don’t know the specific situation. No wonder I’ve been feeling unwell recently. I feel that I’m very unlucky. I don’t know if it’s because… Anyway, you should investigate it carefully. If there’s really a problem, the Zhao family will be the first to not spare her! If there’s nothing else, I hope you can bring her back.” Xiao Meili had aged a lot and gained a lot of weight, but she now looked like a kind old lady.

“Madam, my sister-in-law was bestowed marriage by His Majesty. If there’s something wrong with my sister-in-law, doesn’t that mean that there’s something wrong with the emperor’s vision?” Zhao Yingying immediately retorted.

“Shut up! You’re just a kid! What do you know?!” Xiao Meili shouted, “This is the empress’s order. After you left that day, Panpan bled and almost lost her child. The empress personally went to ask the emperor to issue a decree to investigate this matter!

In fact, Xiao Meili also had some doubts in her heart. Now that the empress hated her and Zhao Panpan to the core, why would she help them?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jiang Xi roughly understood that she was being targeted! The crown prince had already found out that Zhao Panpan had taken over Jiang Xi’s position. The crown prince and she had become enemies. This time, Zhao Panpan had targeted her and wanted to kill her. The empress had taken advantage of the situation to target her!

“The incident started in the palace. What ability does my sister-in-law have to be able to come into contact with people in the palace? Someone must have framed her!” Tears welled up in Zhao Yingying’s eyes. She was so flustered that her hands and feet were trembling. Her mind was filled with the scene of her being burned alive in the fire in her previous life. “You guys took advantage of my big brother’s time at the border to bully my sister-in-law! You will get your retribution!”

Zhao Yingying was too emotional and was pulled back by the servant girl. At this time, Jiang Xi had already been taken away by the official. Now that the official had the empress’s support and Zhao Panpan as a witness, he dared to make a move on Jiang Xi.

Seeing Jiang Xi being taken away, Zhao Yingying cried so hard that she could not even tell if she was in her previous life or her current one. “Quickly send a letter to my big brother!” The pain that she had suppressed in her heart almost burst out!

“I’ll see who dares to send a letter! Lock her up and don’t let anyone send her any messages. If I find out…” Xiao Meili’s face was cold, but she could roughly guess what Zhao Panpan was planning. She thought that Zhao Panpan had probably listened to her and wanted to get rid of the child in her stomach. Now, she wanted Jiang Xi to take the blame.

Xiao Meili knew a little about Zhao Panpan’s tense relationship with the crown prince. Since Zhao Panpan had decided not to have this child, she naturally had to help Zhao Panpan. Although she did not know why that crazy woman, the empress, had stepped in, the situation was in her daughter’s favor, so she did not say anything.

“So what if you find out?” Concubine Yuan rushed over from the backyard with a group of concubines. The group of people did not have the usual pretentiousness but had a bit more heroic spirit and ability.

“Concubine Wan and Concubine Fang, you two go and personally capture the marquis for me, and then strip off the clothes of that sl*t who seduced the marquis and hang her on the wall!” Concubine Yuan was so angry that her head was buzzing.

“I think the marquis is rebelling against the heavens! He isn’t caring about the matters of the family at all!” The concubines were furious. Their minds had been tense after Jiang Xi was taken away. The Zhao residence was about to change!
