Yun Miao slowly opened his eyes, and a hint of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.

"It turns out that destiny can also change based on personal behavior. Although Daji is a demon, she knows how to take advantage of the situation, which is a smart move."

Jiang Song's heart moved when he heard this, "Senior, are you saying that a person's destiny is not static?"

"Of course. So-called luck is nothing more than a mysterious force between heaven and earth, closely related to many factors such as one's fate, cultivation, state of mind, and external environment."

"If people can adapt to the right time, right place, and right people, they can take advantage of the situation and change themselves..."

"Oh no, someone is calling me!"

Before Yun Miao finished speaking, Jiang Song's expression suddenly changed and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"Young Madam?! Wake up! Wake up..."

When Jiang Song opened her eyes, she saw Xiuyun calling her anxiously beside the bed, with an anxious look on her face.

"What's wrong, Xiuyun?" Jiang Song sat up, rubbed his temples, trying to make himself more awake.

"Young Madam, something bad has happened! The Second Master... The Second Master has been attacked by bad guys in his yard..." Xiuyun spoke in a hurried tone, obviously frightened.

"What happened in the second master's yard?" Jiang Song's heart tightened and he asked hurriedly.

"The Second Master's courtyard was attacked by criminals, and many people died! The Second Master was also seriously injured and unconscious! The Master asked us to go to the front yard to meet up with everyone first."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Song lost all sleepiness and felt a strong sense of unease in his heart.

She quickly stood up and dressed, asking as she did so, "What happened? Have those criminals been caught?"

"No, those criminals came suddenly, and they were all experts. They had drugged everyone in the house beforehand, and the guards in the mansion were unable to resist them. By the time everyone reacted, they had already fled."

Jiang Song frowned, his mind filled with doubts.

Although the Xie family has fallen on hard times, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Moreover, the Xie family still has a lot of background and experts, so ordinary villains dare not attack them at all.

"Let's go and take a look." She quickly put on her clothes and walked out of the room.

Under the cover of night, the Xie Mansion was brightly lit and bustling with people.

Xie Guangting is the eldest son of this generation of the Xie family and lives in the main courtyard, while Xie Erye, Xie Sanye, Xie Siye and others live in the east, west and south courtyards respectively.

Jiang Song did not go to the front hall of the main courtyard, but went straight to the east wing where the accident happened.

At this time, the area outside the east wing of the courtyard was crowded with people. The guards and servants of the mansion were all busy, some were treating the wounded, and some were cleaning up the scene.

When Jiang Song and Xiuyun arrived, they saw Xie Guangting, Third Master Xie, Fourth Master Xie and others walking out of the house. Their faces looked extremely heavy.

"Brother, how is second brother?" Mr. Xie asked anxiously.

Xie Guangting shook his head. "The injury is very serious. I have sent for the best doctor. I hope he can survive this."

"Who did this? What on earth are they looking for in Xie's house?" Fourth Master Xie angrily punched the tree trunk next to him.

"It's still unclear," Xie Guangting said in a deep voice, "but they clearly came prepared. They bribed the servants in my Xie Mansion and drugged the food, rendering the guards in the Second Courtyard powerless to resist."

At this point, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he was obviously extremely angry about this matter.

Jiang Song walked forward and saw that the yard was in a mess. Blood had dyed the bluestone floor red, and corpses were being carried out one after another. His heart sank.

Although she didn't have much contact with the people from the second house, she was still a member of the Xie family. Seeing such a tragic situation, she couldn't help but feel sad and angry.

Xie Guangting had woken up all his clan members and relatives from their sleep and gathered them in the main courtyard. He also ordered people to guard all the gates strictly to ensure that no bad guys could get in.

However, the survivors in the east wing were temporarily kept under guard by the guards to prevent any traitors from among them.

Jiang Song thought, no wonder her father-in-law wanted to resign his title. She thought to herself, a tall tree attracts the wind. Although the Xie family is now in decline, it is still alive and well, so it is inevitable that some people will feel jealous or malicious.

If there really is someone who is harmful to the Xie family, resigning from the title may indeed make those people relax their vigilance and give the Xie family a chance to breathe.

But how come this happened to be such a coincidence?

One thing after another, as if someone had carefully planned it.

This thought flashed through Jiang Song's mind, but he felt that his idea was too conspiratorial.

After all, the Xie family has decided to resign the title. In theory, no one should target the Xie family anymore.

Moreover, the Shen family and Du Shulan, who are the most suspected, have already...

"The water source, food, rouge and lip balm used by the women in the mansion must not be used again. They must all be replaced with new ones and strictly guarded to ensure that they are not tampered with again." Xie Guangting gave the order in a deep voice while standing on the steps.

"Yes, Master." Butler Xie Dafu responded respectfully and immediately turned around to arrange related matters.

At this time, Xie Ankang tied up an old woman with a spiritual rope and brought her in front of everyone.

"Brother, this person is the cook in my second sister-in-law's courtyard. I just found this in her room."

He opened his palm, and in it lay a small, unused paper bag containing some white powder.

"Is this... the Ecstasy Powder?" Mr. Xie frowned and identified it.

"Yes, it's the Ecstasy Powder. This drug is colorless and odorless, and is extremely difficult to detect when dissolved in water. The user will lose consciousness within a short period of time and become at the mercy of others."

"What a vicious plan! This cook is actually a traitor!" Fourth Master Xie glared at the cook, wishing he could cut the cook into pieces immediately.

The cook was so frightened that she was trembling and kneeling on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly.

"Master, please spare me! Master, please spare me! I was forced into this situation. They captured my grandson and threatened me to do this, otherwise they would harm him!"

Xie Guangting looked at her coldly, "Who are they?"

"I don't know. They were masked and I couldn't see their appearance. I only know that they were highly skilled in martial arts and ruthless."

"You're lying!" Jiang Song stepped forward and shouted, "It's clear that someone else poisoned you. Tell me! Who told you to confuse right and wrong here?"

"A Song?! Why didn't you go to the hospital?" Xie Guangting looked at Jiang Song in surprise. He originally thought that Jiang Song would be placed in the safe area of ​​the main courtyard like other female relatives.

"My daughter-in-law is concerned about the safety of her family. Moreover, this matter concerns the entire Xie family. How can my daughter-in-law stay out of it?" Jiang Song looked directly at the cook with a sharp gaze.

Since the murderer poisoned the person, how could he be so stupid as to leave the evidence in the hands of his own people?

The cook's words were obviously too coincidental and illogical.

This is obviously a cover to divert the attention of everyone in the Xie family!

The person who poisoned the family must still be lurking in the Xie Mansion. They thought that as long as the cook was used as a scapegoat, they could continue to murder the Xie family.

The cook was frightened by Jiang Song's aura, her face turned even paler, her lips trembled but she couldn't speak.

Jiang Song was keenly aware that her eyes occasionally glanced towards a corner of the crowd, and he immediately had an idea in his mind.

Jiang Song turned his back and pretended to interrogate the cook, but in fact he used his spiritual power to quietly explore the surroundings.

Soon, she locked onto a figure. The person was standing at the edge of the crowd. He seemed calm, but his eyes were flickering and he kept glancing at the situation here.

Jiang Song gave Xie Ankang a look, and the next second, Xie Ankang's hook flew accurately towards the figure and restrained him in an instant.

The other accomplices had their own concerns and knew there was no hope of escape, so they rushed towards the surviving family members of the second wife, attempting to take hostages in order to protect themselves.
