After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy

However, this is not a coincidence. The main reason is that when Qing'er and others set the fire, they deliberately did not set the fire from Taolin Garden, so in the entire Yonglin Marquis Mansion, only a few courtyards in Taolin Garden were intact.

Xu Rui had no choice but to temporarily place Lin Rouyu in Qinyuan.

Lin Rouyu lay on the beauty couch and looked at Xu Rui weakly, "Brother Rui, shouldn't Rou'er go back to the Marquis' Mansion with you? She made Madam misunderstand us."

Speaking of Jiang Xiyu, Xu Rui frowned slightly and said, "Don't worry, she's not a stingy person. I will explain everything to her."

"Cough cough..." Lin Rouyu coughed again.

Xu Rui looked at her worriedly and said softly, "Just stay in the Marquis' Mansion. I will find a way to cure your illness."

"Thank you, Brother Rui." Lin Rouyu smiled at Xu Rui with a pale face.

"Don't be polite with me. Just ask if you need anything. Just rest in peace." Xu Rui said, then looked at Lin Rouyu's two maids and instructed, "Take good care of your young lady. Come to me if you need anything."

"Yes." The two responded quickly.

study.

After listening to the guard Deji's report, Xu Rui crushed a paperweight with a snap, his face darkening even more. "How dare they?"

When Deji found out about these things, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that Zheng and Zhou Lai were so bold as to do such a thing to Jiang Xiyu.

Deji lowered his eyes and continued, "My Lord, the incident at Lanruo Temple that day was quite a big deal. The King of Qin was also there at the time. It was the King of Qin who was responsible for the incident with Zhou and Zhou Lai, sentencing them to fifty strokes of the cane. I'm sure he knows about this as well."

"King Qin?" Xu Rui was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this matter was related to King Qin.

"Yes, I heard from the servants that the King of Qin was seeking medical treatment in Lanruo Temple at that time." Deji told everything he knew.

As everyone knows, the King of Qin has suffered from deficiencies since childhood and has never been in good health.

Xu Rui's face turned ashen with anger. He originally thought it was just a matter within the inner house, but he didn't expect that the King of Qin would know about it. If the matter were to get out, not only would he lose his life as a human being, but the entire Yonglin Marquis Mansion would be criticized and scolded.

Deji glanced at Xu Rui cautiously and whispered, "I guess it's because of the Lanruo Temple incident that the old lady wanted to silence Madam. Last night, she had Madam Li take Madam to the ancestral hall, sealed the windows, locked the door, and poured tung oil on it. Fortunately, Madam's maid and two companions risked their lives to rescue Madam, otherwise Madam would..."

Seeing that Xu Rui's face was getting darker and darker, Deji didn't dare to say any more.

"Where is Zhou Lai now?"

Xu Rui gritted his teeth and blurted out "Zhou Lai's" name, which made Deji shudder. "It was at the Marquis' Mansion. When they were carried back, both of them were unconscious. After what happened, the old lady didn't dare to send them back to the Zhou Mansion, so she placed them both in Shoukang Hall."

"Is anyone awake?"

Deji shook his head. "Not yet. The old lady had called in the imperial physician, and he said his injuries were serious. Whether he can wake up depends on his own luck."

Xu Rui's dark pupils shrank slightly. "My mother's Shoukang Hall was also burned down. It's not convenient for Zhou Lai to be placed in Shoukang Hall. You go and make the arrangements."

"My subordinate understands."

Deji immediately understood what Xu Rui meant and bowed and retreated.

After a cup of tea, Deji brought Zhou Lai into the burnt-out guest house.

"Clap clap clap!"

The sharp whip hit Zhou Lai, and even though he was unconscious, he was still wincing in pain.

Deji didn't know how many times he hit Zhou Lai, and his whole body was covered in blood.

Seeing that the whip couldn't wake Zhou Lai up, Xu Rui winked at Deji again.

Seeing this, Deji dropped the whip, picked up a bucket of ice water and poured it on Zhou Lai's head.

"Wow."

The biting cold penetrated Zhou Lai's brain into his bones, finally waking him up.

Zhou Lai opened his eyes dazedly and saw an ugly handsome face. He was so scared that he screamed, "Ghost!"

This... is this Xu Rui?

How did he meet Xu Rui? Was he really beaten to death by those hundred sticks?

Xu Rui pointed the dagger at his face in disgust, "You are so brave! You dare to touch my wife."

Xu Rui was so scared that he wet his pants. His mind went blank and he instinctively replied, "Cousin...cousin, this is not my fault. It's because your wife is so beautiful. What man wouldn't be moved by her?"

"You're looking for death." Xu Rui suddenly exerted force with the dagger in his hand, and instantly cut a long gash on Zhou Lai's neck, leaving a line of blood.

The sharp pain in his neck suddenly woke Zhou Lai up. He was shaking with fear and hurriedly explained, "I did want to do that, but I didn't succeed. Look at me now. It was all because of her. And it wasn't my idea. It was my aunt who asked me to go."

Xu Rui narrowed his eyes suddenly, "Why did she ask you to do this?"

"It's because after you die, your half-brothers will seize your title. Your aunt is unwilling to let your half-brothers inherit your title, so she wants me to..."

Seeing Xu Rui's murderous gaze, Zhou Lai swallowed hard and stammered, "He, have a child with your sister-in-law and make it your posthumous child. It will... inherit your title in the future."

"Puchi." As soon as Zhou Lai finished speaking, the dagger in Xu Rui's hand stabbed between his legs.

"Ah..." Zhou Lai's scream of pain instantly resounded throughout the Yonglin Marquis Mansion.

Looking at the unconscious Zhou Lai, Xu Rui wiped the blood on the dagger with disgust and said, "Keep an eye on him."

"Yes." Deji didn't have the courage to sympathize with Zhou Lai, so he quickly bowed in response.

The Zhou family has offended Xu Rui and is likely to be destroyed!

After leaving the guest garden, Xu Rui went to Shoukang Hall.

When Zheng saw Xu Rui coming, she panicked, but she pretended to be calm and said, "Why is Rui'er here? Have you settled Miss Lin?"

Without waiting for Xu Rui to reply, Zheng hurriedly poured tea for Xu Rui.

Looking at the busy Zheng family, Xu Rui said suddenly with a gloomy face, "I know everything."

"Bang." Zheng didn't hold the teacup firmly in her hand and it fell directly onto the table.

Zheng came back to her senses, hurriedly fixed the teacup, wiped the tea with a handkerchief, and pretended not to understand, "What's going on?"

Xu Rui snatched the teacup and handkerchief from her hands, threw them to the ground, and said angrily, "What's the matter, mother? Do you still need me to explain it clearly?"

Zheng was frightened by Xu Rui's attitude. She knew that Xu Rui knew everything and fell into the chair in a daze.

Seeing Zheng like this, Xu Rui was furious and disappointed, "Mother, you are so confused!"

After being yelled at by Xu Rui, Zheng instantly burst into tears of grievance.
