Looking at her back, Yin Yihuan clenched his fingers tightly.

The maid standing nearby asked anxiously, "Miss, are you really going to let Madam go on her own? Back when you were studying at the Yin family, the old lady was very caring towards you. Perhaps if you talk to her, she'll relent!"

Yin Yihuan gave a bitter smile: "Do you think I can compare to Yin Mingyue? She was the granddaughter who grew up with the old lady, and she didn't have a good ending, let alone me, a granddaughter from a side branch?"

She paused and continued, "I warned my eldest brother and father a long time ago not to have any thoughts that shouldn't be had, but they refused to listen and even bribed the maid to murder the eldest young lady. They brought this upon themselves!"

After hearing her words, the maid felt that the young lady in front of her was really heartless.

Yin Yihuan was silent for a moment before ordering, "Go get my cloak, and let's go out and take a look!"

The maid was wondering if she was worried about the lady and wanted to go look for her.

Who would have thought that she was going to watch the prison van parade.

She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. She could see that the young lady had no intention of saving her father and brother.

Madam Yin had already arrived at the Yin family's backyard with her maids. She cried and begged the gatekeeper, "Please go in and tell the old lady that I'm here to apologize to her and the eldest lady. Please give me a chance to see her!"

The gatekeeper had been instructed long ago, so she naturally wouldn't go in to report.

She said with a grim expression, "Madam, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's just that our eldest daughter has been poisoned and her life or death is unknown. The old lady is guarding her by her side. How can I bother her with this matter at this critical moment?"

Madam Yin's eyes widened in astonishment. "How could it be? Isn't that Marquis' wife an extremely skilled doctor? How could she not be able to save the young lady? Aren't you making up excuses to deceive me? Get out of the way! I want to see the old lady with my own eyes!"

Before the gatekeeper could say anything, a cold voice suddenly rang out, "Why are you begging me for help? He colluded with tomb robbers to steal the forbidden land, and he even bribed a woman to give my granddaughter that wicked poison. Now he's either dead or alive, how can I expect him to live? What do you think?"

Her voice was so powerful that it frightened Mrs. Yin so much that her whole body trembled violently.

She knelt and crawled to her feet, crying, "Old Madam, no matter what, you can't let our descendants be extinct. You are the ancestor of the Yin family. If any of your branches are wiped out because of you, how will you face the ancestors of the Yin family?"

Old Madam Yin couldn't help but sneer: "Don't threaten me, my granddaughter's life or death is uncertain, and my family is about to die out, so how can I care about others?"

Madam Yin stared at her blankly, her face full of disappointment and hatred.

The gatekeeper noticed something was wrong with her and immediately stood in front of her: "Hurry up and go! If you go there now, maybe you can see your husband and son one last time. Otherwise, you will just have to collect their bodies!"

Madam Yin gritted her teeth, turned around and left quickly.

When she arrived at the execution platform, she saw that her husband and son had already been tied to the execution pillar along with the tomb robbers.

She didn't care about anything else, she strode over and knelt in front of Fang Qingshan and begged: "Please let them go, their crimes don't deserve death!"

Yin Yaomen also cried out, "Mother, save me, I don't want to die yet!"

Fang Qingshan said coldly, "If I had known this would happen, why would I have done it in the first place? If it were just for the money, they wouldn't have to die, just be exiled. But they shouldn't have murdered my wife!"

Madam Yin sobbed sadly, "They've already admitted their mistakes. If you'll just show some mercy, we'll be willing to work like slaves for you and the young lady from now on!"

Fang Qingshan was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore. He turned around and ordered the guards: "Drag her away, don't waste time!"

Madam Yin was dragged away, and she cried out in a hoarse voice: "My son, my son, it's because I'm useless that I can't save you!"

Yin Yaomen's eyes suddenly turned blood red. He was filled with hatred.

He clenched his fists tightly and his body shook violently uncontrollably.

He murmured softly, "I said I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again, why did you chop off my head?"

When he saw the guard walking towards him with a machete, he felt a dampness under his feet.

Fang Qingshan then shouted loudly: "Execute!"

Everyone only saw a flash of silver light, and then more than a dozen heads rolled down the execution platform.

Those who were timid had already been scared away, and even those who were brave immediately bent over and vomited.

Mrs. Yin tried hard not to faint because she saw her son's head.

She crawled over on her knees and held him in her arms.

She whispered in a trembling voice: "Son, mother will take you and father home. Mother will not let you wander outside!"

When she wanted to look for Old Man Yin again, she couldn't find him.

It was not until she saw a pool of flesh that she realized that it had been crushed by the panicked crowd.

She took off her coat and wrapped the meat paste and her son's head.

No one dared to approach her and let her stagger away.

Before she reached home, she fainted on the road.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Yin Yihuan sitting in front of her with red and swollen eyes.

She asked hoarsely, "Where are your brother and your father?"

Yin Yihuan replied expressionlessly: "I have ordered them to be buried, you don't need to worry!"

After hearing her words, Mrs. Yin lifted the quilt and was about to go out.

Yin Yihuan quickly stopped her: "What are you going to do? It's already midnight and the city gates are already closed!"

Madam Yin raised her hand and slapped her in the face: "Those are your father and your brother. No matter how bad they are, they have never wronged you. Even if they risked their lives this time, it was only to pave a way for you!"

Yin Yihuan covered his burning cheek and retorted, "Who used them to pave the way? I've repeatedly warned them not to dream, but not only did they not listen, they even dared to collude with the tomb robbers to dig a tunnel into the Yin family's old house. They're courting death!"

Mrs. Yin's tears rolled down her cheeks. She certainly understood that her husband's tragic death had nothing to do with her daughter.

But she just couldn't stand her indifferent look!

Why should she stay out of it?

They were her father and brother who had taken care of her since she was young and had never let her suffer any injustice!

Perhaps sensing her resentment, Yin Yihuan softened his expression and said, "Mother, I know you blame me for not going to Old Madam Yin to plead for mercy. Didn't you go? What would have happened?"

Madam Yin's eyes were filled with murderous intent. She gritted her teeth and said, "That old bitch is truly cruel. She said her granddaughter's life or death is still unknown, and she refused to help at all!"

Yin Yihuan couldn't help but sneer: "Not only is she unwilling to help, she also wants to kill my father and brother to intimidate those who are still eyeing the forbidden land's property!"
